Time for a haircut?

2009-05-25T23:18:00.004+09:30

Its been ages since I last blogged about something... I've been busy lately, with most of my time spent on making up on the lectures which I've missed, playing The Last Remnant and of course dotA :)Its been almost 3 months since my last haircut, and my hair looks like crap now because it has started to curl up a bit. Why can't I have normal straight hair just like the 1.4 billion Chinese in China

First experience in Red Square, Adelaide

2009-04-19T16:05:00.003+09:30

I often hear that Red Square wins by a faltering margin compared to the 2nd most popular club in town, HQ. Why? Although HQ is Way bigger (it has like 5-6 dance floors) compared to only 2 small ones in red square, but most important is the people in the club right? :P Chinese likes to go red square more compared to HQ, HQ has more Australians. So it comes down to each individual's taste but I'll

Lucky - Cathy Nguyen & AJ Rafael

2009-03-30T23:51:00.008+10:30

I changed the song on my blog again, but this time its a recording by 2 people on youtube which I found and fell in love with their music. They are just normal people who sung the song "Lucky ~ Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat" Their version was wayyyy nicer than the original song. Listen to it! Highly recomended!Try watching the clip if you can, the quality is better than recorded version I use for

She is really good, very nice voice~ Anyone who wants this song can ask me through msn~ I'll send it to

Guess where did I went today, Hahndorf!!!Last time I went there was about 3 months ago, where Aunt Florence (Amanda's mom), Uncle Steven and Jane came to Adelaide. Its a German town 30 minutes from Adelaide where most of the people living there were or are still Germans. So no candy guessing there are lots of German themed shops and buildings there.We went to the German cake shop first for our

2009-02-26T23:46:00.003+10:30

A Holiday I wished will never end

2009-02-21T00:30:00.002+10:30

By the time you read this, I'll be at the airport or on the plane back to Adelaide with a heavy heart. Well, this is my longest holiday (2 months) where I came back, relaxed, studied a little and had lots of fun with my friends and family.I really needed the break as University life is so hectic. I think I might lose my mind if I continued with summer school which will replace my holidays.

Restaurant Review: Canton-i at Queensbay Mall, Penang

2009-02-18T20:05:00.005+10:30

Went to Queensbay Mall today to hunt for my sports shoe and did some last minute browsing looking for cameras. The ones I have in mind are Canon EOS 1000D which costs RM1999 with kit lens or the semi pro king of compact cameras Panasonic Lumix LX3 which costs about RM1699.I had my lunch at the newly opened Canton-i located at the west wing of the mall which in my opinion had a really small

The Dentist

2009-02-18T02:09:00.002+10:30

Before I write anything, Friends... please remind me how frightening the dentist is. I have a feeling that I am experiencing severe memory loss since I came back to Penang.I went for my annual dental check up at 11am, the dentist did a brief check and says that one of my tooth has decayed so he asks me to make an appointment and come back at night. Naive as I was, not knowing what was installed

Valentines Day

2009-02-15T03:30:00.004+10:30

How did everybody's Valentines day went? My 2nd Valentines was a bit unexpected but it was ok because at least I gotta spend it with my sweetheart. Spent 2 hours of the day stuck in traffic jam... Although the economic is experiencing its worst slump in recorded history, people seem to be flocking to Pulau Tikus to celebrate Valentines as I experienced one of the worst traffic jams in Pulau Tikus

Pre-Valentines

2009-02-13T18:47:00.002+10:30

1 day before Valentines day, sacred day for couples through out the whole world but a dreaded day for any single. I heard from my grandma that my cousin was making home made chocolate for her boyfriend, such a sweet thing to do. We don't get these kind of presents now days right guys? Valentines day is not just about the gifts, its about the feelings of the person giving and receiving the gifts

2009-01-27T01:08:00.007+10:30

Its this time of the year again, when the weather is unusually hot, where everywhere you go in Penang, the CNY songs just overwhelm you in every direction, when kids earn extra pocket from their parent's friends and relatives XD and its the time where family members from far away come back to their family while enjoying lots and lots of nice foods which is synonymous to Chinese new year.CNY

USM

2009-01-24T02:05:00.003+10:30

I'll try to summarise up the things which I have been doing this past few days into one blog post. I became a temporary uni student at University Science Malaysia. Apparently the lectures that I attend were the same as the ones taken by pure biology and applied biology students. I asked Guisong to bring me along to his classes so that I could experience life which I missed when I dropped Form 6

Making Kuih Loyang/Pang Siu Kuih

2009-01-18T02:21:00.003+10:30

The kuih making tradition has been in my mom's family for 3 generations, my grandma is a well known kuih seller in the Kulim region in Kedah. During Chinese new year, she would make lots of kinds of kuih which is synonomous with CNY.All of her sons and daughters would bring their family weeks before CNY to get together to make kuih. Its loads of fun for the kids and the adults would chat while

With the up and coming release of the highly anticipated Starcraft II real time strategy game, a question looms... When will Warcraft III die? Die as in people stop playing it and switch to SCII. Warcraft III had an excellent map editor which enabled people to make custom maps using Warcraft III as its platform. A lot of custom maps of Warcraft III like Defence of the Ancients(DotA), Hero Siege,

New Year Resolution

2009-01-06T15:14:00.003+10:30

I've forgot to post my new year resolution a few days back, mainly because I forgot about it because my mind was filled with fun and excitement as this is the first time I'm celebrating new year's day in Penang after I went to Australia to further my studies. A lot has change since then although its only been a year but luckily most of my friends still remember me as the geeky little bastard who

Last blog post for food tour No.1, that day was full of events right? At first I wanted to divide it into 3 posts but didn't have the time to type a post that long, which might be also quite boring for the reader. So 4 blog post it is :) Lets get on to the show!We were trying to find the legendary Lok lok located on Pulau Tikus pasar, unfortunately, it was not opened (I think its due to the rain)

Part 3 of the journey takes the shareholders of the blur blur company to the area near komtar, home to a lot of hawkers who's business started out a few generations ago, probably till the time where your grandparents were still sucking their thumb XDFirst off, I satisfied my long-term lust of Chee Cheong Chuk (Pig intestine porridge) which I whined about a few blog posts ago, the porridge was one

Cheesie is planning to go to japan for a homestay! I think its the same company that organized mine when I went to japan for a homestay myself.

Anime Review - Gatekeepers & Gatekeepers 21

2008-12-12T22:52:00.010+10:30

Just finished watching gatekeepers and gatekeepers 21 at www.anime-sub.com. I still think about the fond memories where I rush back from school during form 1 to watch this anime on AXN. Back then I considered myself a hot blooded youngster and this kind of anime suits my taste. Gatekeepers was then a pioneer in terms cell shaded and CGI graphic being used in the anime. I quickly became a fan of

Wtf really... Me? Emo because of food? Well, I will admit this, I WANNA

While we were walking, Chong pointed

Sundays

2008-12-07T17:20:00.000+10:30

My perspective of this day changes as I grow up.During my primary and secondary school years, Sundays are reserved for completing homework (yes I am a last minute kind of person). During the latter of my secondary school years, Sundays are considered days for family outing. Usually mom will gather all the family members (Me, dad, and my 2 other sis and sometimes my grandma) and what do we do? We
