Past Time

Finally, i'm free from exams, at least for now before my second external exam kicks in. I kept studying for exams I didn't even realize it's half a month in this new year already. Is either I'm too busy or time is passing too fast! Things happened in 2008 and it felt like it was just last week..

January
I still remember laughing out loud when the message said, "Tahniah anda telah dipilih..." I was excited but at the same time nervous about NS. All sorts of questions was playing in my mind. "Are we getting tortured there?" "Are the people in my dorm violent?" "Do I need to bring my pillow there?" Turns out, NS is a total vacation for me to spend for 3 months! I made a lot and I mean A LOT of friends, had lots of fun and for the 1st time sleeping side by side with Sabahans and Sarawakians. They are a bunch of whacko jackos who loves to crack jokes and go around scaring people at night with their blanket. There was once Megat (a small Bajau boy) hid in Nik's locker and when Nik (a skinny T'ganu dude) open's his locker to take his towel he got the scare of his life and fall straight to the floor. It immediately trigger tears of laughter around the dorm. Ahh.. how I miss those days..


Me and Joker Nik



Squad Kawad Senyap



MCA Ah Long gathering. lol.



It would've been tough without them


February
Chinese New Year was awfully quiet. Had reunion dinner at Uncle's place just like every year, went back to Mom's place, visited a few relatives, made offerings at temple and of cos, collected ang pau. My ang pau collection was beaten flat out by my sister for the 1st time because I only got 5 days of break and then it's back to camp. Anyway, I brought back lots of food for the Sarawakians and Sabahans in my dorm cos they had to stay in the camp unless they are willing to fork out air tickets back home.

May
Step foot back into school. I had to admit I've never seen this coming. My parents thought maybe I should give Form 6 a try. Besides, the next college intake is on July, no harm defrosting the brain a lil. It was fun knowing most of them, I was often labeled the talkative one. Instantly click well and we all became close friends.. I HEART YOU ALL!


you can tell how happy we are together



Aww.. I love this pic


June
Finally get the chance to visit Singapore. Everything there looks so much more advance. Even the dumpster looks uber cool! On the contrary, everything looks more pricey as well. Usually when on a holiday I would be on "hungry frenzy" mode, eating my way out but not at Singapore. Did a lot of sightseeing and exposed to the MRT cultural..







July
I tried but I didn't like the teaching and learning environment. Friends are great but I gotta start thinking for my own good. So I left my new friends and signed up for A-levels at HELP. Didn't know what to expect, I just know I gotta get great results to show my appreciation towards my parents who sacrificed a lot just so I get better education.


Goodbye..



Hello..


August
That faithful day that happen right before my 18th birthday. Now you know why I don't drive despite having a hard-earned license.



September
5 Merah gathering! Everyone look so different. The last time I see them was back in March and they sure change a lot. Some came driving their newly owned cars, some change their hairstyle but one thing's for sure, at the inside they are still the same fellas I spent my secondary school life with.







October
Deepavali celebration was off the hook. Hopped 3 places and I had so much curry I can feel a storm cooking up in my stomach the whole day. We laugh from start to finish and Om introduced some of his college fwens. Just like me, they enjoy kutuk-ing Om, I like them. ^^







Well, that's about it for year 2008. I'm really hoping 2009 is way better. Lesser tears more laughter, yup! that's my prayer. Chiaow~
