I sent my phone to Nokia Care for repairs yesterday and they told me it would take 2 to 3 working days to fix the problems. But they were very efficient and called me up today afternoon to inform me it's ready for collection. Problems fixed and i give them thumbs up for their customer service!





It's like I feel so insignificant now.

Popped panadol pills for cold relief last night and fortunately my fever subsided this morning.
I really felt damn miserable for the whole of yesterday.
But on the other hand i felt quite loved by my parents who took great care of me, especially my Dad.
I was pretty shocked by how concerned he was at first, because usually he wouldn't really ask about me unless i looked like pale and dying. (okay this is an overstatement.)
It's heartwarming, really.
Thanks Dad & Mum. :)
And those who asked too. :)

Just look at the pic below, 1st 100% attendance in David Wong's 20 years of teaching history.

( i don't know if that's an overstatement but that's what he claimed. :D )
Be proud DBIT 1A/21!

pay me for the censorship fees!

Finally submitted the Java assignment! Woohoo, damn relaxed now! :D

See how tired out we all are due to this project in the past few days?
YL even holding on to his Java textbook hoping the knowledge will flow into his brain.

Mr. Collapse ( inside joke =X)

Terence: "Eh lend me your jacket leh."


Alright alright FOM report now!
Ciaos.

Sick for the first time, in 2009.
So many of my friends fell sick in this festive period before me.
I thought i could remain fit throughout this Chinese New Year but...
Down with fever, body aches, sore throat, flu and swollen eyes.
Oh well.

Life's unpredictable.

Don't you just agree with my title?
Maybe you will later.

Anyway, I'm back from Malaysia. (Obvious isn't it? Hmm.)
Chinese New Year was great, just that i felt that we didn't stay at my maternal side long enough. It's always the case every year. :(
Ang bao lui decreased, probably due to the recession!
But parents' ang baos didn't! :D

Okay okay, pictures!!


Saturday

Arrived at my hometown and headed to my 大伯's shop for dinner.
He's a great chef yo!
Every year he cooks the nicest food for the family! :)

Yum yum! La la! (that's how its pronounced)
Sunday
Chinese New Year's Eve!
Reunion dinner at my 大伯's place this time round.
I like the feeling of a big family gathering together for dinner and then catching up with one another. :)
very obedient dog!

steamboat steamboat!


Headed home.
We had the traditional custom of offering prayers to the god and also my 阿公.


my 堂妹.

Monday
大年初一!
Woke up early to get ready for relatives to gather at Ah Ma's house!

cutie #1!

Went to someone's ( i ain't sure how am i related to them) house.


Gave me a shock when i saw this dog.

It doesn't look big in the picture but in real life it's fuckin big!
Like an adult tiger's size!

There's another very fierce dog kept enclosed at the back of the house, but i don't dare to go cos i heard it's damn fuckin fierce. :D
Buffet dinner at 大伯's place again!
But Msia banned the usage of fire crackers and even the long long 炮竹.
In addition, it has become a law that we have to fasten our seat belts for the rear seats there. But, i guess no one will really care. :P

Went to 二姑's house!
It's damn fuckin big. I forgot to take photos though.
I like to hang out in their karaoke room!
Can sing can eat can drink can chill.

And just look at the amount of alcohol they have.



Gambling! (abit blur i know.)

Tuesday
大年初二!
Arrived at my maternal's side around noon. Then all my relatives came to 外婆家!
Eat, gamble, chit-chat.
Then went to my 小姨家 at night for more gambling and chilling session!
cutie #2
He said his chest pocket too small for the angbao!
So cute! Hahaha.
cutie #3
Haha he's cute but abit too violent for his age.

trying to break the coconut with his bare hand!?
The 'kitchen' of a wooden house beside my 外婆家!

Very kampung feeling right?
Big contrast to the picture above?
I always pass by this mansion/house/chalet/whatever-you-name-it on the journey to my 外婆家.
We got stuck on the bridge connecting M'sia and Singapore for 1 & 1/2 hour today. It's one of the worst traffic jam i ever encountered. Even after getting our passports checked, another half an hour was spent inside the customs due to the traffic. -.-
Okay, the reason why i said life's unpredictable.
Here's the story...
There's this very cute little kitten near my 外婆家.
It's still very young and doesn't know how to survive yet. I don't know where it came from and where its parents are.
It kept meow-ing when we were having lunch. It seemed hungry so i decided to let it have some food.


It's so fuckin small that i can easily use a hand to carry it.
It's very friendly too. Not afraid of strangers at all.
I carried it away from a dog because it seemed pretty scared.
See how cute it is?

Okay, the point is, it was below my 小舅's car when they were about to leave my 外婆家. (at this point of time, i was at my Aunt's house already) He started the car engine and didn't know the cat was there. By right, the cat should have run away when it heard the engine.

But it didn't, and the car just ran over the cat . . .

It was only when a neighbour saw the cat and told my 小舅 when he realised.

The kitten didn't survive for long and passed away soon after.

When he told me the news, i was totally taken aback.
Even though it's just a few hours i was playing with the kitten, it's hard to accept the fact that someone or an animal that you've been interacting with awhile ago just died like that, isn't it?

I was still thinking if it would still be there the next year i return.

I felt rather emotional for awhile and remained speechless.

So, don't you agree that life's unpredictable?

I'm sorry to have ended this post on a sad note but i felt that i really have to blog about this.
What a long post, hope i didn't bore you with all this!

Enjoy your Chinese New Year people! Still have 11 days to 拜年! :)

FINALLY! FOM PRESENTATION IS OVER!
A huge burden off my chest now. Okay maybe not, still got DBMS and Java project to go.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
I think i kinda screwed my presentation.
And i happen to know that a 'someone' actually criticised me.
Hmm, constructive criticism or not? I don't know.
But i was thinking, maybe you could just write the marks and shut the f up.
Oh well, nobody to blame but myself.

I took a picture with Lebron.
Hard at work or ? Where's your left hand G.T?

Similarity?
Deepest apologies, team.
My own fatal mistake to be distracted.
But i still think the comments were unnecessary.

Chalet vs Bbq

I consulted Miss Wong on the chalet issue.
And from the conversation I discovered some facts...

dunnos - dark unknown nonreflective nondetectable object somewhere says: ok nid 360 meh
' Alex C. says: changi there got other chalets other than aloha?
need, if book chalet M, 1 day is 120.
dunnos - dark unknown nonreflective nondetectable object somewhere says: aloha is cheapest liao wah last time off peak 30
' Alex C. says: SERIOUS omg 4X the price man.
dunnos - dark unknown nonreflective nondetectable object somewhere says: ya la i gt book b4
'Alex C. says: did e recession hit SG so hard? lol.
dunnos - dark unknown nonreflective nondetectable object somewhere says: haha increase the price but the service nv improve

Wow, what a drastic increase in the price.
4 times, can you believe it, 4 times!
Argh why did the recession have to come this year?! :(
The chalet may have to be changed to a bbq.
Initially i was pretty against the idea cos i wanted to host a chalet so badly, but i figured i had no other choice and bbq sounds quite fun actually. :D
If im really gonna book a chalet, it may have to be a tight budget one.
Okay, please suggest.
Chalet or Bbq?
