.:: a FRiDaY 2 RMB ::.

Mood: A bit exhausted after finishing stacks of homework that has accumulated on my desk. Explains why I haven't been blogging. This post was supposed to be published on 6th July 2007.

Today, I had to go re-bind my folio... Many sarcastic thanks to my teacher, who utterly spoilt it by exposing it to the hot rays of the sun by putting it at the back of the car. Imagine, the comb was straight when I got it back! And because of that, I was late for school. (I'm rarely late)

So anyway, everyone is expecting the students from Eltham College to arrive anytime soon. They're from Australia and are on a trip. They just visited Taman Negara and our school's their last stop in Malaysia. After doing some last minute adjustments to my folio, I handed it to my friends to help me hand it in later. (Thanks, Wen Jun and Rusydah!!) Then, went straight to the hall where we had prepared an exhibition of traditional items.

For those of you who don't know, that's what a gamelan looks like. (the two thingy in front)

There were a lot of traditional games as well, some that I miss playing... Like congkak, batu seremban... and another game that I didn't know of. Then sepak takraw guys were playing at the back of the hall, including Hisyam. Amalen was stuck on one of the tables playing some game that used bottle caps. (I forgot the name for that one)

Priya, Nantini and Thanusha were practicing the Indian traditional dance after the form 2 girls did the Chinese traditional dance which used fans and umbrellas. (I can't believe Pri can flip the fan with her left hand and I can't!)

Anyway, I was supposed to go to bilik Al-Hikmah and take part in the welcoming of the students, but Azreeza placed me in the hall. Oh well... at least Pri and Thanu are here.

At last, around 9 something, they arrived. They went into the bilik Al-Hikmah. Around 10.30am, they came over to the hall. The tour was canceled due to lack of time. After watching the tradisional dances, I got to know Sarah. She's really friendly ^^

Okay, this is embarassing, but I took her to the wrong canteen. Haha... They were having it at the asrama canteen and I took her to the school canteen instead. Well, at least I didn't take her to a wrong school... XP Anyway, we had lunch at the girl's asrama. I didn't feel much like eating, after eating biscuits... XP I had a nice cup of teh tarik instead.

We all went round asking for emails and taking pictures. It was really enjoyable.

After that, we had time to go on a tour around the school after all. We went to Husna's class and then walked pass all the form 3 classes. You should see the response of the guys in my class. XP

After all that, we gathered at the sulop. We took a lot of pictures here.

Me and Sarah ^^

Mood: *swtdrop-ing*

[13-14 June 2007]
Well, guess the pictures do tell a million words.
After 1 day after being told...

I set out to Lipis. Miss Wai drove us all the way there.
And on our way, we passed by a lot of cows and trees and possibly, some unseen monkeys.
There was also a squirrel. The reason this is all I can say is because, that's all I saw along the way.

Might sound a bit insulting, but the roads there were VERY ULU.
We reached there around 5pm and had to go register at PPD Lipis.

The whole place was like a huge maze. Luckily, we had a couple to drive us there.

We took a twin single bedroom at Centrepoint.





We had to walk quite far just to find a chinese restaurant. And the only restaurant that was open, had only one miserable chicken sitting inside.

Apparently, all the chinese shops close earlier than 5pm. Great news.

After doing some shopping at a so-called "pasaraya" we went back to the room. I had to practice a few times. By 7pm, everyone was tucked into bed with pyjamas.


I slept at 10pm after sitting 3 hours in bed, watching some weird shows on the TV. I mean, who would actually do a documentary show about gays and lesbians...? And who's face is so thick to actually WANT to be interviewed as a lesbian / gay...?

Woke up around 6 am in the morning. Swallows can be seen flying outside the windows. (a mass amount, at that.)

Anyway, arrived at the hall of SMK Clifford safely. This is the 1st competition I attended that actually started without any LONG speeches. I like it.

I was the 9th participant and after called, I went up to deliver my speech, "Hakuna Matata"
Don't ask.

After the short break, we were quarantined in the room. I got to meet a lot of the public speakers there. Everyone was so friendly and we were engrossed in chatting, it felt like a long time before I had to go up on stage.

I told my teacher before the competition. "if they give a tittle that had something to do with Malaysia, I'm just going to tell the lady to disqualify me."

And as luck would have it, it DID have something to do with Malaysia.
"If you were the Chief Minister of a state, what would you do to make Visit MALAYSIA 2007 a success in your state?"

I wanted to faint. And the irritating part was, the lady in front of me wouldn't stop announcing how many minutes I have left. I mean, I know I only have 4 minutes!!

I crapped whatever I could on stage.

And... I kinda unbelievably won.

My mum was like, "Who was the one moaning about not wanting to go...?"

Anyway, reached home around 5pm. Was dead tired. Folios, homework and many more were awaiting me the next day.

[20 June 2007]
So, anyway, today I missed school because I wasn't feeling well... I am so dead tomorrow. Don't know which DUMMY went and told teacher I'm for sure to have stomach ache.

Oh well.

.::: AHH!!! PuBLiC SPeaKiNG!! ::.

Mood: Feel damn panicked... Public Speaking competition is THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW!! Otherwise, calmly happy.

Grandma got her new TV today. I got my Mid Year exam marks. I did really badly...

BM- 73% (P1: 24/40 P2: 78/100)
BI- Unknown
MM- 90% (P1: 40/40 P2:50/60)

SEJ- 84%

Gosh, I know... Horrible.

Anyway, toiled on fixing some errors in my SEJ folio (Many thnx 2 Jonathan, Firdaus, Sie Theng, Gaayathri, Priya and Chew Yee for the completion of this FOLIO!!), but managed to finish it in a while... My GEO folio is still under construction, Pn Siti Samiah's not here! Ah.



Pn Wong and Miss Wai had to break the lovely news that on Wednesday, we have to go to Kuala Lipis for PUBLIC SPEAKING. OMG!! Under such short notice, the only thing I can do is FIND MY SCRIPT! Oh crap! Why...?

Well... now that I've FINALLY FOUND IT... Time to start memorizing... Haiz. Wish me luck, minna~

Mood: A little tired after going for ballet. Just returned from KL... Other than that, quite happy to be home ^^

1st June
After wishing FirFir happy bday, I went to bed. Woke up around 8am in the morning and after bathing and breakfast, we headed off to KL. Breakfast (2) was somewhere in Gambang... A shop my mum always goes to. It's a Malay shop and the food was quite good. Haha. There was this cute cat my brother kept feeding too... One way another, it has become 'his cat'.




It took us 5 LONG HOURS just to get there. By the time we reached Mum's new apartment, we were all DEAD-TIRED. We were so glad there was going a pit-stop before going to Penang.

Mum got her keys from the previous owner and then we went in to check the place out. As it hasn't been used for at least 3 months, the marble floor and basically the whole apartment was in dire need of cleaning. Mum left the maid in charge of the cleaning with the basic cleaning instruments (those are what I would call it...) and she took us all to lunch.

What can you expect for lunch at Jalan Kuchai Lama? Well, Medan Selera Kuchai Lama was built for that very purpose. But, it seems like my favourite japanese ramen shop was closed, so let's just eat a nice pot of claypot rice.

(by the way, that's so little...!)

After lunch, we went to OUG Mall to buy some stuff. (i'm not sure what, exactly) Mum went into the clothes department. (I hate that department!!) and started shopping for clothes. It wasn't really that hard for me to keep myself entertained at the Toy's Section. (Yes, I'm still a little kid.)

After all that tiring shopping, Mum took us back to her apartment. Hui plugged in the laptop and fiddled around with it. We took turns playing the laptop and UNO. I got the last turn! Well, after level up-ing my Charmander to level 27 , I got satisfied and decided; IT'S BED-TIME. Only then did I realise... I didn't bring my toothbrush. (SO that was the thing I wanted to take!! XP) Luckily, Mum had forgotten hers too and had bought the 3-in-1 packet from the shopping mall while I was being fascinated by the types of Yo-Yo's that I yearned to play.

2 June
The CAWING OF CROWS (Well it is KL city... Don't expect 'chirping of birds') and the light rays of sunlight that reached out to me from the windows eventually woke me up. I looked at my phone and found that it was 6am on a Saturday morning. Arghh!

Went into the bathroom and washed my face... Drank a cup of water and cuddled back to sleep again... Then came all the helicopter sounds... KL is kinda getting irritating by the second... Well, after all that tossing and turning, decided to wake up for good. Took a nice, relaxing bath and then went for breakfast.


(Breakfast by the poolside... Isn't it convenient?)

After having a plate of roti canai and a cup of teh tarik, me, Li and Hui went into the pool for a swim. We spent 2 hours in the pool, before we were tired of paddling around. XP

Later, we fectched Pink from KYUEM and then we went to eat at the porridge place. (That's what I like to call it....) Like always, food there was super-tasty! Then, we all went shopping for Mum's new apartment furniture... (Arghh... hate shopping!!) It was quite boring, but there were a few things that caught my attention...

Okay, I know this isn't furniture... But isn't it just adorable...? It was on one of the drawers of the furniture shop. (Yes, I'm childish. Fine.)



And when Mum was busy with furniture, I slipped in to the TOY's Section. Ahh... This is what shopping is about... XP (Window shopping, I mean...) Yet again, those are just ADORABLE!! I miss being a small kid.

After a tiring shopping spree... We had dinner at some Vietnamese restaurant...



Looks nice, rite...?

After dinner, it was back to another POKEMON-game-playing night at Mum's apartment before going to bed.

3rd June

Yes, finally! The day to go to Penang! I can smell the curry mee from here! (Okay, maybe not.) We dropped Pink off at KYUEM... All along the way I was reading a comic of her friend's... Aspirasi Cinta by Mizuto Aqua... The drawings aren't bad... I like Kairi!!

Okay, anyway... We reached Penang quite late... around 7pm... went for dinner.
Char Koay Tiaow!! It was DELICIOUS. There was this cute black cat too... But couldn't take picture of it because my handphone didn't have enough batteries... Sigh... God bless it to find a great owner!!

We watched SHREK 3 DVD at Yi Por's house and went to sleep.

4th June
Curry Mee! Curry Mee! In the morning... And a glass of Iced Coffee at my favourite shop! (This is the only coffee I like...) Later, Grandma and GrandAunt took me to a few temples to pray for PMR.



The pond which you try your luck by throwing coins in and see what you get... I got for Prosperity, Happiness, High Education and Wealth... Haha XP





After that, we went for lunch at a mini restaraunt which has delicious Indian fried mee. (I'm really not good at names...)

We all went back and took a nap... At night... It was off to Gurney Drive!! Gosh! So many people! So many types of food! It was sooo HARD to decide what to eat!! I had MUAR CHEE and Hokkien Char... It was DELICIOUS. I love Penang food...!

5th June
Ahh... Why'd we have to leave Penang...? Ate dim sum in the morning and then headed towards KL. Nothing much to talk about... We stopped at that shop in Bidor again. That lovely Duck Mee...! Looks like this post's all about food! Haha.. XP

6th June (Today)
We reached Kuantan around 4.15pm. Unpacked, checked my mail and rushed for ballet. Legs ache like crap by now... Haha...



I admit that I do hate ballet because I always get scolded for stupid mistakes, but I really love dancing and I love my shoes ^^

.:: SCRaBBLe... Sugoku Tanoshii katta!!::.

Mood: Just woke up from sleep with the memories of the past few days flowing through my head. Happy, of course ^^ And for some reason, the whole post is black...

26 May '07

Mum and family left for KL. I stayed back for scrabble. The whole day was spent watching Naruto... 37 episodes, in fact... Hyuuga Neji's so cute! Haha... Packed my stuff for tomorrow.

27 May '07

Okay... Woke up at 8am... Supposed to go to school at 10am... Dad bought me Nasi Lemak before he left for KL at 9am. Had some extra time before 10am, so I decided to continue from where I left off in Naruto. Grandpa fetched me to school at 9.50am. We sat in a van that was supposedly to be able to fit 12 people... Sabi, me and Adele + Miss Kong cramped into the second row while Ong, Alif and Ezmeer had ample of space at the third row. In front of us were the U-18 SABS guys... (names still unknown till now)

The guys (Ong, Alif and Ezmeer) surprisingly falls asleep easily. Not to mention at the SAME TIME too! Me, Adele and Sabi were chatting away... At the same time listening to the front three people chatting about GEOGRAPHY, or something like that... =.=lll

Adele took this picture of Ong to blackmail him later. Believe it or not, he woke up straight after she took it.

We reached around 3pm and checked in... Then we went to Mines Fair to check the place out. After that, we took Komuter to MidValley and got lost in KAJANG. (we took the wrong KOMUTER!) When we FINALLY reached MidValley, it was 4.15pm. Miss Kong gave us 4 hours and we went our seperate ways...

I dragged along with Adele and Sabrina... I just don't get the fun of shopping for CLOTHES. I ate a plate of claypot mee for lunch while Adele and Sabi shared a pizza. We went into lots of shops... And lastly ended up in MPH, where i was absorbed in all those Japanese books.

I was DEAD TIRED when we reached the Sun Inns hotel... There was hair all over the room. How gross is that...? Hopefully next year, we get a better hotel.

28 May '07

The COMPETITION day! Yikes...! We woke up at 7am... Had breakfast in our rooms. (the bread we bought the day before) Sabi and Adele were yelling at me because i was singing "loudly" in the shower... We walked to MINES fair once more.

The game started after a while. Altogether it was 3.5 out of 6 matches. Not too bad, I guess... but I lost my lucky pencil... T.T
Later, we went walking around MINES after a bowl of UDON. I went to the arcade, but since Sabi wasn't even trying to win, I got bored. I gave Adele 15 minutes to get done with her shopping... (i'm so mean!)
At night, we asked the guys over to join us in a game of UNO... Not to mention, "a lot of people" were PRANK CALLING the hotel rooms. After watching Prison Break, we decided to snooze.

29 May '07

Time passes so quickly! It was already our third day in KL! I was hopeless in today's matches. Didn't win anything at all. So all together it was 3.5 out of 11. But it was okay, because I had tons of fun! Especially at lunch when we went with Mr. Togetherness (I love saying that!) and Firdaus. We had chicken rice at the CHICKEN RICE SHOP.
After all the matches, it was results time! 12th ranking... Okay, I guess, since the original target was above 20 and to have fun! ^^ We also took a few pictures:

From LEFT (behind): Vern Ern, Kabian, Me, Sabi, Jonathan and Adele
(in front): Firdaus and Mr. Togetherness

From Left: Kabian,Jonathan, Sabi, Me, Adele and Stephanie with her Scrabble for getting highest Bingo.

From Left: Adele, Sabi, Me, Firdaus and Mr Togetherness (Deshan) in front of the tunnel at MINES.

In a nutshell, it was so much fun to be with all of you guys! I miss all of you already! I hope we all meet again next year! Until then, keep in contact, k?

.::BYaKuGaN!!::.

Mood: A little bit happy after watching a few episodes of Naruto and talking to my mum.

To My Mum in Korea, Happy Mother's day.

10.26pm as I now speak, 5 days to my Mid Year Exam. Probably not the best time to be blogging. Then again, its quiet and no one's watching. Nice. Hrmm... Came back from debate on Thursday, we lost WITH PRIDE. Well, here's a few stuff I'd find interesting during the debate:

Nadia: (presenting her part of speech about autism)
3rd Speaker guy: POI! (VERY LOUDLY)
Resha: (to Chewy) Omg, that guy's POI-ing NADIA. He's playing suicide.
Nadia: Yes.
3rd Speaker guy: (stands up and takes his sweet time to take the mic, turn it on and FINALLY speaks) Can you please repeat that? You're speaking too soft. I can't hear you.
Resha (thinking) :What the...
Nadia: I am not speaking too soft, you are simply NOT paying attention and I will NOT repeat my points.
*crowd claps*

And I love the way Tina ended her reply speech...

Tine: Since the government insists that the eye speaks louder than the tongue, if they can come up here and present their points without using their mouths, then they should win this debate full of honor.
1st Speaker : Erm... We cannot speak with our eyes, But.. I don't think even the opposition can do that.... blah blah
Resha (thinking): erm... exactly the point! That's why their OPPOSITION...

Again, no offence intended.

For the 3rd round, I sadly ended up as the rebutter for the OPPOSITION. (*Note: Resha is GOVERNMENT) Mainly because we wanted to send our best team up... but i think Lily might've done better... Anyway, while I was rebutting... this guy POIs

Resha: blah blah blah...
1st Speaker guy: POI!
Resha: accepted.
1st Speaker guy: Why are you mentioning only HUMAN factors?
Resha (didn't hear properly): huh...? what? Please repeat?
1st Speaker guy: Why are you only mentioning HUMAN factors?
Resha (having nothing better to say replies): Of course I'll be mentioning HUMAN factors. because we're HUMAN. You don't expect me to talk about ANIMAL factors, do you?
Resha (now): *chokes* I can't believe I said that.

After the competition that we PROUDLY lost, Me and Chewy followed Pn Hashidah to her friend's house. It was HUGE. And it was the first time I have seen a house with a yellow roof. Literally.

On the right: This is one of the best pictures I have ever shot. It's Chewy chasing a cat! Haha...

Around 8pm, we paid a visit to the only mall in Bentong; Vega Mall. It was surprisingly modern, looked somewhat like Kuantan Parade. I spent most of my time at the comic shop, happily choosing 5 posters at RM10. I wanted to buy that GUNDAM SEED handphone chain, but there wasn't any place to hang it.
After I reached home, I immediately pasted the posters on the wall together with my X cloth poster as seen on the left picture. It's Kikyou (inuyasha), 2 characters from Fushigi Yuugi Genbu Kaiden (bought it for my sister), Syaoran and Sakura (Tsubasa Reservoirs Chronicles), Train and his gang (Black Cat) and the Fate Stay Night group (featuring my Archer and Saber!) XP

Below those is the angel from X. (forgot his name as well.)





On the right: Me and the angel (from X) poster.

Anyway, I missed school on Friday thanks to a fever that came up on Thursday night and then received news that KH folio was due on Monday, otherwise, we all get D for PMR. Ouch, I know.


I went to school on Saturday for that English Textbook CD thingy. The homework pilled under Wen Jun's table for me was nothing like Afiq was AMAZINGLY "EARLY"
After recording for about 4 hours, we went to the beach to take some shots and also, for McD! Yay! We each got RM50... *wow*


I ate a large McD porridge, an apple pie, two packets of Fries and a Pepsi. Hehe.

Here are some pictures I snapped with my handphone at the beach. Ahh.. the beach, my favourite place on earth. And when everyone else was paying attention to the photoshots, I was busy spying on two beautifully gorgeus komodo lizards. *aww* Just adorable. The waves of the sea were soothing to listen to... it was a pity I was in school shoes and uniform, otherwise, I would definitely have a splash.

Above: Tina (Alam Flora), Me, Lily, Miss Wai, The camera Lady, Afiq and the camera Guy. (names unknown)

On the left: Isn't the beach just beautiful...?

Anyway, wondering what's the reason behind today's tittle? Yes, Resha always has a weird explanation for her tittles. Today's is just as you thought. It refers Byakugan from Naruto. I was watching Hyuga Neji battle just now and just can't help liking his Byakugan. There is a blind spot, but it's almost 360 degrees. Beats my eye vision anyway.

Talked to Mum on Skype just now. They got 29th out of 100+ teams. Sounds better than mine, anyway. Been trying to think of what homework I need to work on, but nothing comes up. It's like, my whole mind's blank. Anyway, need to snooze now, have school tomorrow. Blessed it be. And Mum, I miss you lots. Happy mother's day.
