Driving!!! >.<

The past few weeks my mom was shouting and yelling that word to me.
DRIVE!!!!
and whenever i heard that, i will give excuses to avoid. So like me :P haha.. note some of the lame reasons i have given my mom :

-today is friday the 13th ( i really gave that excuse!)
-i am stressed out
-my legs are hurting
-no mood
-i am sleepy

Haaa..i actually got through it by giving those lame excuses. I know my mom was just being concern because it will eventually trouble myself if i cant drive in the future. Quote from her: " nobody will be able to follow u for the rest of your life, so you must learn to DRIVE"

Another excuse that i have given her few months ago was that:

"aiyar, singapore got Mrt, so dun need to learn la" ( serve me right for not going back to sg to study) :( :(

Actually why I am so afraid of driving? That is because before this few months, i have not been driving since i passed my driving exams,that was ermm... almost 2 years ago ( nov 05) dun ask me why. And i took the exam after the 1-week-driving lessons!! so u can really imagine my phobia whenever asked to drive.

Anyway, i managed to drive a few times before coming to KL. so i guess now i am more confident in driving :) :) bless me.

Nomad's Life


2005: HCIBS (B4R/04), we used to call it five stars prison. Having lift in each hall, gym, big dining hall, function hall, music room, computer room, shop selling grocery, amphitheatre, it can really be considered as five stars. Except for the idiot curfew, no doubt it was a joy staying there. Although i had to share the cluster with 17 other borders ( who 80% are PRCs), there was not much problem because we practically didnt communicate with each other throughout that year. My room mate is from China too :P



2006:Mc Nair Lodge, a 'chalet' style. heh, I was definitely in a shock when i first move from the five stars prison to here. There is one pool in the middle of two blocks, which i always call it 'frog pond' :P Different from HCIBS, here in Mc Nair Lodge, we dun have the luxury of having music room, pantry/tv set at each floor. In fact, i had to share the small tiny room with 4 other ppl. We cant even stretch our hand in the room! But being in such a small hostel, we are also brought closer together. Having breakfast/lunch/dinner together was a memorable experience. Any rumour will spread very fast too! :P


2007: Vista Komanwel. The apartment is directly opposite university. I have not been to the house yet, will talk more about it after i move in. It will definitely be a new experience. Looking forward to it~ :)

Another new chapter...

Going to flip to another new chapter of my life in a week time. I remember complaining about my boring life after quitting the job in hospital, everyday doing nothing at home. But now, I felt as though the holiday is not enough. I want MORE!!!

Anyway, as I am sitting here enjoying the last week of my 8-months-break-post-Alevels, many of my friends have already left to their respective universities. Those that are going to continue their studies in that small little red dot already went there last week or so. All of us are scattered to different corners in the world. Poor Kr has to stay in this 'lovely' country. Sob sob.

No matter how reluctant I am, I know i have to persevere until i finish the studies here as this is the route that i have chosen. I am glad that my parents allow me the freedom to choose what i want. Anyone in their right mind would choose to study in a prestigious university with FULL scholarship. But me, the idiot, has chosen to study in a less well known university, and burden my parents with insane tuition fees.

Until now, i still do not know whether this is truly what i want. A career with long working hours, mentally and physically demanding, and practically no life? Is this what i want? The answer is I do not know.

Movies!!!

As far as movies are concerned, i am quite productive this few months ( jan~july). *beam with pride*nyeyeyeye

English movies/cartoons
Casino Royale
Although i watched this alone ( yar yar, what a loner i am. sob sob) , it is quite a nice movie, would be better if some parts are not censored away :P

Shrek 1,2,3
Watched the three at one go. ahah! Hilarious. but i like the first two more :)

Open Season
Quite funny, but i still prefer shrek.

Pirates of the Carribean 1,3
Watched the first one to refresh my memory before watching the third one. Out of the 3, i like second the most :)

Ocean 13
Amazed that i still could understand the complicated plot despite my rusty brains. :P omg George Clooney is soooo cute :D

Mr Bean's Holiday
I think some parts are too lame that i couldn't get it ( my brother and Vin were laughing like duno what while i sat there not understanding what is so funny about it!)

Transformer
Omg! this is a must must must watch movie. It's really worth the ticket ( although mine is free. hehe, thanks to kh ) Autobots are so cool. wish i could have one =)

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
I think i wouldn't have understood the movie if i didn't read the novel. Anyway, Emma Watson is really pretty :) and Daniel Radcliffe is CUTE! Went watching alone also, and met my students there. so paiseh ( they must have think that this teacher is such a loner )


Chinese and korean movies/drama series
Gong
Lengthy storyline but that main male actress ( whom i duno his name) is cute. cool and serious, style of my Mr Right (hint hint :P)

Smiling pasta
Funny and entertaining. Quite a typical taiwanese drama series. Finished watching in 2 days.

Invisible Target
Just went to watch yesterday. Not a fan of Nicholas Tse, but the plot is quite touching. I nearly fell asleep halfway during the movie. haha. blame myself for lack of sleep.
