would you take what’s left of me? =)

hmm. lackluster phrases, and posts. picture drought.

all these are because I was so busy from early December till now!

Welcome to the beginning of the end of the year, mid December.

Many many many things overwhelmed over my life through this short, short year.

2008 has been a year of surprises, and mystery.

Unpredictable, fun, exciting, and never failed to leave me pondering about life.

Christmas is in 3 days time, there’s no Christmas tree in my house as we always have. Just dust, and old furnitures covered with dust, waiting to be disposed after the renovation is done.

I feel nostalgic all of a sudden, looking at the corner where I grew up setting up Christmas trees. It has been 11 years now since my family found salvation.

And ever since without fail, the 6 foot tall Christmas tree will be set up half a month before Christmas. And year by year I will measure my height by the tree. Last year I was almost reaching the top!

Not sure about this year though.

Many Christmas had already past ever since I joined CBC Subang-Sunway. All kinds of services and events had been creatively prepared every year, this year would be less surprising though.

The warmth of carols, carolers, pies, I will miss a lot.

While I’m not sure what to expect this Christmas over at Philippines.  Not looking forward, really.

I haven’t even pack my luggage yet.

It seems year by year, festivals gets less appealing to me.

I get all nostalgic every time I reach to this point of the year. I hate it.

But what I want this Christmas is to understand why am I celebrating it. There must be a reason for me to do it there in the Philippines, which covers Malaysia from the Siberian monsoon wind, forgot which direction.

I don’t really care if I get presents or not, it all seem so pale to me now. But I don’t mind receiving it either =p

I’m pretty worn out so to say.

I can’t find my 2008 New Year resolutions I did when I was 14, will dig up my old dusty blog for it =)

I’m leaving this blog on the 31st. Starting a new one, without repeating the same mistake I did, which is putting my age as the title, as I did with my other blog.

Help me think of a title will ya’? =D

Don’t worry, this is not a good bye post. Will still update @ The Philippines, if I get internet over there.

Since around May I started this blog, now in total I have 5 thousand views, about 700-1000 views per month.

Not too shabby for a starter. heh.

-frshthzch@ CHRISTMAS.

coffee on a Monday, rainy, morning.

…continue from post below, don’t want to elaborate too much from there, not bad looking bus hostess, american-accent speaking bus conductor, Tokyo Drift on the bus.

Malaysian Custom-Dirty Toilets.

Singaporean Custom-Clean Toilets, Awesome Sensors.

This is our first Singaporean experience right after the bus dropped us @ City Hall.

MRT(Mass Rapid Transit), a public transportation that we use half our time spent there, and also what low-medium paid Singaporeans use half their lifetimes.

This is the route that MRTs go, with this, you can pretty much travel to anywhere in Singapore within minutes.

The Singapore National Library, if you can look close enough, you can see in every floor there are people reading and studying.

Now this, is our National Library. Not sure if this is the renovated version, but it looks like a Islam convention centre.

—————————————————————————————————————————————————

I have loads to elaborate but my mind’s getting lazy over the rainy morning, and the cup of coffee I made.

Let me start with recent happenings and updates.

Last week was normal until it came Saturday, where our State Assemblyman for Subang Jaya, Y.B. Hannah Yeoh was coming to speak to our church youths.

In conjunction with our church’s C2U project, she came to speak about “The Heart for the Community”

She was really professional in her speaking, and you can see that she is a simple lady.

She showed us a chronology slide show of  how God made all this happen in 12 months. And transformed her from a newly wed, law graduate to a young Y.B.

Her husband, Ram, was also a man of God, judging by the way he spoke.

The couple’s heart for the country was put to obvious as they speak to us youths. And also told us how we could help out in the community.

Dang, my fingers are tired again. I didn’t bring my camera that day, but I think she needs a new poster picture in the area. Has been using the same thing since March.. lol

not sure what to do, I’ve rejected going to Sunway Pyramid with the dudes and duddettes, simply cause it’s raining, and I’m lazy.

-frshturningintoafatasssoon.

gushes from the lion paw[singapaw]

Yeah, back to business. =D

It’s been a long rest, and now prepare to get streams of information and abundance of clarity.

Maybe not… maybe..

I’m really lazy these days thanks to P.C games, and also because of the thought that I’m going to do so many things starting next week, why do things that will drain my brain?

Well, I need it to start working again, so now I’m just giving what my tank full of iron oxides can give…

Now let’s start shall we?

Pictures are quite big and =.=’, might take a while to load…

Leave this here for a few minutes, and then come back to read.

For better reading experience.

—————————————————————————————————————————————————

Day 1

Departure/Arrival

Our chartered bus picked us up from here.

We all love Fridays. But it makes no difference now…

I expected some RapidKL type bus, hoho… but this is awesome =O

loading the luggage….

Alright, actually that’s all the time I have for Singapore as of now, so pause for a while =D

So today we’re still @ Malaysia. I’ll continue this in a few parts.

If you were on “steam”, I’m sorry to cut that off. muahahahaha

Well, life right now is pretty messy. Renovations going on the back, looks really nice already.

Having loads of stuff to do in mid December, so thinking of chilling with friends right now…

Won’t be celebrating Christmas here with my extended family[church & friends], won’t be here taking my PMR results… And most likely, will be celebrating New Year 2 o o 9 on the plane.

So life’s pretty much all around the place.

Nothing interesting, no point reading me now =D

Alright, off to 3K for sports, which only recently came back to my interest…

Badminton, anyone?

-freshy the messed up messy

bleary.

I’m still worn-out from the trip to Singapore, I’m starting to realize after all these kind of trips, that I’m physically quite unhealthy, I thought by playing lots’ of sports I can endure and swallow anything.

But what I really need is more exercise, and probably do some weights. My arms are failing me.

Feeling all dreadful to blog about Singapore, because it was so overwhelming that I have so many thousands word to describe it, and yet have no more muscle and animation to type!

Give me some time to rest.

And then tonnes of words and pictures of Singaporean food, events, transportation, girls, guys, views, malls, places and prostitutes things we don’t have would be up in no time!

-frshthfrsh

off the crossbar!

It’s 7 a.m.!

Will catch a bus later @ Subang Parade, and off I go, bidding goodbye to homeground, and hello land of no-land!

heh.

will be there till next Tuesday, 24th of November, then again, just sms me, don’t call.

hope to have a real good time there, and not get overwhelmed by wrong things, they’re called Kiasu-land for a reason…

Alright, no DotA, CoD4, probably the internets, football, lazy life for a week.

I hope it snows in Malaysia when I get home…

-frshthhopeful

rechargeables.

Sometimes things in life that doesn’t really matter at all, can be used as a weapon to poke your inner conscience and how you think about yourself.

Recently my mother got a call from a librarian in school, saying that I owe the library about 50 ringgit, because I haven’t gave it back since April.

The thing that was stupid was, the book was titled something like “HOT SPM Biology”. And the other thing stupid was, I never used my library card before. And it says in the record that I borrowed 4 other books with stupid titles and have already given them back.

I don’t know how to settle this, but I know I don’t owe them 50 bucks, and I will make my way through this.

The teacher “Pn. Tan” doesn’t seem to understand that I ain’t an SPM student. why would I bother troubling myself making fun of the librarians =.=

Well forget about that, I don’t care. I’m going off to Singapore early tomorrow to attend the Asia Conference, held by City Harvest Church Singapore. I’ll be there for about 7 days.

Not really excited about it, but what’s bothering me is that the currency exchange from MYR to SD is like crap. 2 Ringgit Malaysia is like 80 cents there.

I’m bringing about 350 Ringgit so you do the math, it’s really just enough to survive 7 days there.

I will be staying at Mark’s god-mother’s place, I hope it’s near the city-square or whatever you call it there. And most importantly internet services would be the best icing on the cake…

My to do/bring list is done, and now I’m off to get a haircut.

-frshthkiasu?

salad days.

salad days=Teen, youthful days.

Well, I am having my salad days right now, and I want to tell my grandsons that “during my salad days…” it was all awesome and exciting. Rather than telling them I spent 16 hours on the computer a day!

So I called up a few guys to go out for a small field day where we share and converse.

We met at Drive-Thru McDonalds SS15 in the morning for breakfast, it was quite awkward at first having a few guys in McD’s.

I knew immidiately that I chose the wrong place to talk!

Thereafter I had to go Subang Parade to check the conditions of my camera, the guy in the shop who carried himself like a pro actually didn’t tell me anything that I didn’t already know, and told me common sense stuff.

But to repair it, it has to take a month, and I’m going to Singapore next week, I can’t afford not taking pictures over there!

And when I come back from Singapore and send it over, 1 month would be until December the 20++ where I will be going to the Philipinnes. And the thing is, the gray spot on my LCD keeps getting bigger and bigger

But my day was really nice. Got to talk and get high on CoD4. Thank God I didn’t spend my day on DotA.

And to all SPM students, it’s just day 2, I wish you guys all the bestest all the wayyyy….

-frshthsalad

how long can you stand in the sun?

hmm…

I have shortage of cash in hand lately.

This is why I really hate going out on holidays with friends.

Not because I spend like water, but no matter how hard I try to keep my water, it gets evaporated anyhow.

You see, I am a very generous person, by nature, and partly also because I like being around generous people, you feel very casual and free around them. And I like to be that guy.

But on the other hand, I hate to be taken for granted. I am always more than willing to help you when you’re short in any form of things that I am able to give.

But generosity only stands to a certain extent and I can’t afford to go beyond that or I would be Oprah Winfrey.

And being me, I hate to ask for money. Because I hate to see the expressions on people’s faces and the monotonious excuses they give to just to sneak away for a moment. I hate..that.

Some even worse act as if they don’t owe you a cent.

Seriously if you’re gonna’ take me from granted you might as well call me an idiot and take money off my pocket just like that.

I’m not rich, my dad isn’t either. If I look like another rich brat who spends to buy friends, think again, turn around and go find yourself a job.

Note to younger youths:“If you want to go out for lunch, takei, or whatever it is, make sure you have permission from YOUR OWN parents, and make sure that you have enough cash, if not, forget about it, go home.”

I still have my dream guitar to pursue, basketball shoes to buy, 2 countries to visit, Christmas presents to buy[not 4 everyone of course], camera to repair, handphone to change, and a PC to upgrade.

But I’m still happy, I’m not emo, because I get to help teacher tomorrow and at the same time get paid for it. It made my whole day nice =)

Things that made me happy this week:

-Obama, now renamed, President Barrack Obama.

-Man Utd.’s defeat to the Gunners, reloaded.

-A good cell session.

-Awesome, and carefree fun time @ USJ 16.

-Compliments from friends.

-Meeting rusty old besties.

-Someone actually initiated himself to return some cash.

-Being invited by Szegy and Annie.

-Getting paid to do some work for a teacher.

boring post to you, but I liked it.

-frshthcreditor

Come my lady, come come my lady, you’re my butterfly…

sugar, baby…-Crazy Town

So it was after service, when Anne waved @ me indicating that she has something for me…

Immediately Sze Gion tried to stuff an envelope into my t-shirt, I knew what I was getting alreay.

It was actually a invitation to witness the couple to be exchanging their vows, rings, and also their pasts, and to share lives with each other.

I always feel quite honoured when my name is printed or written in letters. Well, except if it was a complaint letter or a “surat amaran” hehe.

….

What I’ve got to say about these two?

Well they’re both really cute people haha. And also very fun to be with. I could already imagine how their 1st child will be like..

They’re both really kind and helpful people, and very friendly in person.

…

Read this in the invitation

“This day I will marry my best friend, the one who shares my dreams”

Hehe. Reminded me of this song, Angel-Shaggy.

Girl, you’re my angel, you’re my darling angel
Closer than my peeps you are to me, baby
Shorty, you’re my angel, you’re my darling angel
Girl, you’re my friend when I’m in need, baby

Yeah, congratulations both of you! God bless this relationship

My keyboard feels so sticky now, cannot tahan. Must be my brother eating while playing again… Yuck!

-frshthinvited.

fortright for the win.

So right after the reunion, Aunty Mary, Gilbert’s mom was kind enough to fetch me from Pyramid, back to my house @ USJ 2, and then to Aunty Jo’s place for a small YC.

Really fun having to play awesome treasure hunts which are pretty “Amazing Race” like. Having clues leading you to the next.

And the best part was clues were all over USJ 16, and it is a closed and secured area, so things in there were pretty nice.

When i first saw my team, the 3 idiots up there, I thought we were gonna’ come up last.

One is a girl who lacks stamina, one is a guy who lacks carbohydrates and fats, another has too much adrenaline.

We had to solve lotsa’ quiz made up of riddles, maths, and brain teasers.

It ended really well. My team won the amazing race, surprisingly.

But sometimes let’s just look @ the bright side.

Let’s start again…

Our team..

One is a really motivating and efficient girl, another is a straightforward and quick thinking dude, lastly is a quick moving, ehem, intelligent guy.

And the event of the night…

Arsenal -vs- Man Utd. @ home

woooOoOOo!!

I was sitting with 6 other Man Utd fans, 2 other Arsenal fans, and one neutral dude xD who actually supports Arsenal.

Nasri and Almunia really stood up tonight, but Man Utd.’s defence was pretty messy tonight.

We watched the match @ Suku’s. Met Michelle and Elaine there, probably with their church, after church session.

And to Kasvena and Tharveen, a piece of advice is “do not count your eggs before it hatches”.

Well, it’s not exactly right for every occasions, but yeah~ you get my point I believe.
