Oh, I forgotten to share something here. Last Sunday, out of boredom and hunger, I ordered for Domino's Pizza from my room. Yes you're right, it's a pizza delivery. =)

Cheese sticks. I bought 2 sets.

My Simple Cheese Pizza!!!! It was really good. =)

It costed me $21.85. It's a waste of money actually, because they have offers on every Tuesday whereby you can order a pizza for $5 or $9. This one costed around $17. But they said all food and drinks that we order must exceed $20 before a delivery can be done. Well, it does encourage me to share pizzas with my friends instead of eating it alone. Well, once in a while doesn't do much harm, right? ^^

Breaking the nutshell

Well, I had been in Perth for about a month now. Things are settling down slowly for me and I settled down pretty quick this time, since I had the same experience while in KDU. I met new friends, new lecturers, of course, a new degree environment.

Coming to Perth really opened my eyes to the world, like a nutcracker cracking a nutshell. I really learnt a lot of things and understood countless difference between Malaysia and Australia. For some reasons, I felt disappointment about Malaysia's progress lately, on how race discrimination still continues; on how poor Malay people are being discriminated by others in the same country; on how naive and stubborn some people are in the government, dying to protect the Malay's rights, only to lose sight of what Malaysia had truly become; on how suspicious people look at every stranger that passes by, fearing that they may be a victim from the stranger...

Of course, I have nothing more to say, as I have lots and lots of information that I do not know yet. Other people take them as 'common sense' and I don't have them. Looks like it's a long way to go for me to learn about the world......

Maybe reading newspaper, watching news online or TV will help. But I'm still in lazy mode due to lack of motivation, so yeah, the irony. XD

Nothing much to say actually. Oh right, I have prepared a letter regarding all my updates while in Perth. Sorry for not sharing it here because there's too many things to talk about. I sent this letter to friends and family out there. So if you would like a copy of the letter, feel free to ask me. Or you can find me in facebook or MSN and chat for hours, I don't mind. =)

That's all for now! Oh, by the way, today afternoon, my Aussie lecturer gave me and my friend, Alex a shock. He spoke Cantonese to us. O.o

New Layout! New Update!!

Hello guys!! Wow! It's been so long since I even touched my blog!! Once again, I just saw a few of my friend's blog and then I decided to update my blog. I gave it a new layout, template and a background. How is it? Very refreshing, right? ^ ^

I'm using Roxanne's previous template. Sorry for using your template too Mako. =p

So I'll be doing my best to update often, but lately I really need pictures and photos with me while I write my blog, so yes, I'm in serious need of a camera. I have a sudden envious feeling towards my sister and her camera, I hoped to have one for myself too. But at that moment, she got her camera and I insisted for an electronic keyboard. I never regretted having that awesome keyboard, but right now in Perth, around all these beautiful green scenaries, I HAVE to take pictures of them. I have a Sony Ericsson handphone with 2.0x megapixels. Obviously I need a better one. For the time being, I guess I'll have to rely on my friends' cameras. >__<

Let's see... Oh! I finally found a cactus!! Right, I never mentioned. Experts say that if you have a cactus in your room besides your laptop, it will absorb the radioactivity, reducing its impact on the user. I never heard of such theories, but it's worth a shot. I went to my mum's friend's place and she gave me one small cute cactus to take care of. I was damn excited when I got my cactus. XD

Guys, girls, meet my cactus, Roro.

Judging by the name i gave it, I believe you are able to figure out why. =)

I'll be putting it at my window porch now. Anyone who knows how to take good care of a cactus, please leave a comment to teach me how, since this is the first time in my life taking care of a living thing all by myself.

I guess that's all for now. Hmm... I need to start improving my English vocabulary... Cheers people!

Perth

Hi guys! Sorry for not updating, my life has been quite enjoyable lately. Other than that, the main reason is because it's really really cold right now, somewhere around 10 degrees, so cold that you'll only want to sleep it away. Right, hibernating. But it's getting warmer from time to time. Anyway, I'm in Perth now!! My parents and I flew to Singapore on July 22nd and to Perth by Jetstar Airlines on July 23rd. After settling down, dealing with my stuffs and hanging out together, my parents flew back on July 30th. Nah, I won't cry, we're gonna meet again in 4 months. XD Besides of the cold weather, the sky here is deep blue with no clouds with a distorted shaped moon. The view of the moon in Malaysia is so much better compared to here, but the sky in KL is so much better here. That's what it gets for pollutions and corruptions. Nyehe.

So, here are some pictures. Enjoy!

In front of Fremantle Prison

Swan Lake Bell Tower & Wheel of Perth

In front of a caravan in Murdoch. ^^

Pictures here include places such as Perth Zoo and Fremantle Prison. More pictures in my Facebook.

I do miss my family. But I made a promise to myself and everyone I love. So, I'll take good care of myself and do the best out of what I had. It’s also high time to polish my English too.

I'm not sure what else to tell you guys, but thanks for waiting for my blog update, any questions regarding anything about my life in Perth, feel free to leave a comment. ^^ Oh by the way, the swine flu here isn't as terrible as you think it'll be. No one's wearing masks, boarding up their homes or freaking out about it at all. Hah, and I thought they took it damn seriously. =/

Well, I am back in my bloggy, typing another blog.

I'm sorry guys. I planned to make a tribute blog for 8 of my best KDU buddies, but unfortunately due to the continuous problems occuring on Streamyx, adding on that I'm actually online at Sabah, my connection is so slow, I can't upload any photos in my blog. Well, I'll need photos of course. So that's why I have to find a right time, where the Internet line is amazingly fast, then I can upload the necessary photos and post up my blog. Too bad, the connection is unstable all the time, I kept disconnecting from the Internet, so my blog-publish-date was postponed until today, and still the line is unstable. So, let us wait till the line gets stable and okay one day. ^^

By July 23, I'll be heading towards Perth. It's a whole new learning experience for me. I'm not sure whether I can cope with all these, but I'm damn sure I will eventually. So, I can't back out from my challenges, so I'll face them with full courage!!! Besides, I promised a lot of people that I'll do my best there. So yup, wish me all the best.

Okay, this is just a brief update for my blog before it gets filled with dust and cobwebs. My next blog will be here once I get a stable line, so please wait!!

To some of my friends, good luck with your new degree life at KDU!!!

19.06.09

If that day is not a 'memorable and unforgetable day', I don't know what is.

june 19th, 2009 was the day I was relieved from being a KDU student. Yep, I returned my KDU card to them for my refund. But I felt, no, i FEEL nothing. Why? Ahaha... please don't let me repeat my story.... XD

Asides of that, today is the day where some good friends and I go for a happy outing at Sunway Pyramid!! I was so looking forwards to our outing! At first we planned to have a swim in Sunway Lagoon, but it just didn't worked out, so we chose to hang around at the pyramid instead. Damn, we took so many pictures. Here's some of them. =)

The guys - Mako, Sharmaan, me, Peshvin, Ian

The girls - YiQian, ShuiZhen, Roxanne, Kimberly

My 'family'... Son, daughter, wife and me. =)

He got the most attention while wearing the sunglasses. Meet Ian the Great.

Roxy and I. Sweet picture. Haha.

Kimberly & Mako - a cute couple

It was a really really fun day! Although we didn't do much, but we were so happy being together. While we arrived, we were so busy taking pictures throughout the whole morning. XD

After our lunch at Secret Recipe, we decided to go to Red Box and sing the hell out of our lungs. Well, damn, we really did do that. ^^ Whatever song that you can think of that'll rock the place, you have it right in our song-list. A Little Too Not Over You? Check Yes Juliet? Where is the Love? Yup, all there. =)

We went totally crazy in the box. Sup dawg! Plenty of DJs in the house!

As the saying goes: "A picture paints a thousand words." So I won't start telling a story which will make this blog into an unnecessary length, so enjoy the pictures and more on my Facebook profile.

haha... check out that guy behind... singing so fully-emotionally... XD

Haha... Ian's really enjoying himself out there....

Beat-boxing Team!!

We rock!!! Ya-ha!!!!!

In the end, before we head home, I gave a short speech about the day and my wishes to them. Look at me. It's as if i'm gonna cry. Hahaha! But actually not. =)

Frankly speaking, I am happy that I enjoyed myself on that day and I am happier that they enjoyed themselves as much as I did. Thank you guys, for such a wonderful day! I'll miss you guys when I get to Perth! And I... I...

Haha, let's not get to that, shall we? I'll be making another post about you guys later on before I leave. So, be sure to check back often!! ^^

长大

人...是一定要长大的.



我刚刚看完了我姐姐的博客, 现在心里有点不好受的. 智勇, 你已经20岁了, 不再是以前那个不会照顾自己, 不会独立的男人了. 读完书之后, 你将会开始学习赚钱, 创造一个家庭, 成为一个成功的男人, 丈夫, 爸爸...

你长大了.

我不要.

我现在终于知道为什么那么多人这么不想长大了. 随着年龄的增加, 需要烦恼的事情更多, 需要的私人空间也会随之减少. 现在, 当我一开始想到我的未来时, 我会很害怕, 也很有恐惧感. 未来是多么的难于预测, 难于形容. 我很喜欢现在的我. 过着无忧无虑的生活, 有一位非常棒的女朋友在身边, 有这么多好朋友... 我们大家都知道啦, 无论如何, 我必须飞去澳洲继续我的degree. 但是, 当我读完书了, 一年半过后的生活会变得怎样? 很精彩? 很悲观? 很糟糕? 这些种种的可能性, 让我很害怕, 我很怕到时候我不能接受. 不过, 我很清楚知道: 读完degree之后, 一切都会变. 当时的我, 只能够一直想要如何找到一份工作, 赚很多钱, 等等. 总之, 一定不会想以前这样无忧无虑,自由自在了...

现在, 有很多事情在困扰着我, 不过算了吧~ 这始终都是人生的考验, 一定要接受, 一定要通过. 不管我多么的任性, 不要接受这种事实都好, 人都还是要长大的. It's inevitable. 想那么多是没用的啦, 让自己难受而已. 哈哈, 这句话在这种时候讲, 很矛盾吧? XD

We cannot predict the future, but we can control what we have and what we are NOW. So, I intend to do the best out of all these. Appreciate the present and keep fighting for the future!! ^^

好了,　心情好了一下,　回去读书了.
