Malfunction

Of the brain? Mayb just a small fraction of it.

Well .. this weeks been bizarre. I've been forgetful, tired, frustrated easily. Feeling grumpier than usual and been driving like a mad man on occasions.

Forgetful. Seems I've been out of focus or just a little off this week. Almost lost my car keys, nearly took wrong readings for phys experiment, just today almost lost my club room key and some certs and the list goes on. Well .. probably just a sudden flux of irregularity.



Also, watched a move named '500days of Summer'. Well. I got to know this movie from Enjun's blog. Initially I dint pay any attention to it.. till I read the movie's quotes.. which I find that its kinda hilarious. So I decided to dwl and watch it. The next thing I knew I was sucked into this film. It's beautiful.
Narrator: This is a story of boy meets girl. But you should know up front, this is not a love story.
But its a story about love

In any this movie make it worth watching in some mysterious way. I came across very few of this kind of movies, simple no actions .. a move about life that seems simple & boring at its synopsis yet manage to make me glue on the screen without a pit stop. Better than pointless explosion and excessive killing and overexposed emotionless sensual scenes.. a movie bout life is the best.

Well...what this movie is about? Its simply of a transition phase from Summer to Autumn.

Most days of the year are unremarkable. They begin, and they end, with no lasting memories made in between. Most days have no impact on the course of a life. 30th of April is a Friday and it rained that morning.


P/s: No, not anger, not furious. I guess its disappointment. Disappointed that more shit than flowers drop from the sky.

Six billion freaks in this world

Why me?
There are moments when I do ask this kind of question.


Heart pounding. Deep slow breathes. Steady hands. Firm grip on the trusty pencil. Sits firmly, unwavered. He told himself "boy, u had made a mess out of everything and anything possible, just not this one ayte?" The minute hand strikes 12 and the church bell rang from a distance broke the dead silence that engulfs the exam hall..then it was quiet again.. birds chirping replaced by dead silence. There isnt any birds to chirp today.. or mayb there isnt any all along. Gently he swayed his head right .. took a good glance. The guy on the left seems confident enough.. starting infront without even a flinch as if he is meditating. What's running on his mind is a mystery...his facial, expressionless.. cool and calm. Then the speakers tore apart the tense silence.. it was a short briefing. He ignored..it was letting him know what he already know. He is waiting.. impatiently.. anticipating for the word.. the 5 words that is suffice to move every muscle of his body , every cell .. every single thought. Then the minute hand hits 2, and the words was spoken. 'Students, you may start now', and from then on he held his breathe for the next 2 and a half hours.


Now, that was almost what happened. As well as I could picture it. Although there is a little alteration.. the examiners speaks Malay.. and ofc holding my breathe for 2 hours was just figurative.
Well, my Muet. Reading was suffocating. LONG LONG PASSAGES.. I'd actually really did slept when I was reading half way. Wth. As for writing.. I was ecstatic when I saw Question B..cause clearly the title was my strong point. But I just gotta have some shitty time management that day and I am only left with 30minutes to complete QB when I'm done with QA. My hands dint even had time for a pit stop its just went on and on till the very last second. And it was really miserable. Then it was listening..oh God. I almost screwed up my 1st passage entirely.. I was blurring on the 1st one.. lucky the recording repeated and I manage to gain back my steps. Well its the 1st time that Eng. test felt like an adrenaline rush. Usually only math or physc will feel this way.. but its different this time. Anyhow, I made up my mind. If I am oh so lucky to score Band 5 I will not retake it.
The night before Muet at school library

Also attended the choir event at Saturday night which the name I have conveniently forgotten. Heck .. free admittance since I was one of the ushers.. And.. well .. i only ushered afew people ... less than ten..haha.. feel darn guilty for slacking. Anyhow.. I believe the singers are talented .. bt i guess the sound system werent on par with the singers.. and therefore ruined the night if you ask me.
I dint even stay till shows over.. I wasnt even there half of the show
so un-supportive.. haha


Also, dad decided to try something new yesterday night and made some homemade pizza.. well it sorta look like pizza.. Sorta. get it? SORTA look like a pizza..haha
He said he cant find the plain pizza crust so he used bread
Funny thing is, he hates cheese.
However according to him Mozzarella is mild and is not as cheesy as the other cheese.. and he is fine with it.

(i think he is referring to the flavor)

Its really simple to make.. all you need is to get the right ingredients and know how long to bake it and ur ready and set to make ur own pizza. Mayb I just make it sound easy.. lol.

Well my rant stops here. I've wrote too much already.

P/s: Theres a German student in my school! Nope, he is not Hitler and he aint tat chubby kiddo that slam his keyboard on youtube.

Out of steam

After a adrenaline rush for the whole morning thanks to Muet , a hustle bustle afternoon and an evening of ushering than a night with friends .. well I'm currently physically as good as dead. Many things to write.. lazy to type.. also lazy to think what to type. Ahh. I'm getting tired so easily.. whats going on?! Apa sai ni .. saya masih muda la!

Anyhow.. kinda screwed up my Muet. I will go further into it later. For now just another short update.

Also.. spending time with childhood buddies does really made me reminisce on my childhood memories. All those funny moments .. idiotic actions. I realize I'm missing my childhood. I miss so much from it. I miss being naive.. being ignorant to all the complications. Sounds dumb and foolish.. but I dnt care what you others think.. this blog is for me to voice out what I feel. I miss Form 4 & Form 5 .. particularly Form 4 .. ahh so much memories.. so filled with moments.
Just remember one fact. One day in the far future we will look back and miss the current present

Now that I realize. My tears had dried up years ago.. and I can still shed occasional tears but I just lost the voice to cry. Is this good? .. Is this being strong? or .. simply being heartless? Is this wrong? ..

Let go of..

My past, My burdens, My guilt. He urged.
Not forgiving your self is never a means of reconciliation.


Anyhow, I'm bck frm Penang. Seriously I was expecting to get good rest in this camp .. coz I figure that I get to sleep in the hotel's comfy bed cozy temperature away from problems and Ipoh. BUT.. on that very day I was reminded of 2 important unofficial camp rules.

Rule no.1 - Sleeping early during camp = impossible
Rule no.2 - Sleeping during camp is a waste of time = ="

So I'm refresh.. however fatigue has a tighter grip on me now. Took quite alot of photos this time gonna try to upload it to FB. A few pictures followed.
Ahh, thats the life :)
The team I'm in built this sandcastle. It won 1st prize! ;D
I was a 'kawan' when we are playing 'TheSims'
Watched the Sunrise for both mornings as well

Also, before you start jumping and screaming ' liar liar pants on fire' let me clarify that I am equally surprise & I thought it was a joke by Hannah Lee whn she was giving out this prize. But turns out.. it was real. So here goes..
Believe IT!! :P

I've gained quite alot from this camp. Gained and achieve afew things. Some are too personal to be elaborated here. Anyhow...I will try to post up pictures on FB. I need to rest. Really.. or I'm so gonna fall asleep in Chem class tomoro.

P/s: Might be getting SE Vivaz soon!! :D

When logic is gibberish

That is when things out of the ordinary happens.

Felt quite drained out recently. Especially this couple of days, thanks to the colloquium last minute rush. Anyhow manage it just in time and I guess Mr.Hee is not disappointed. :D
Gonna take a short downtime for the weekend and head off to place that fascinates me ever since I was a child. :)
If ur still thinking, well its Penang

Heading there for some R&R and also to attend SPC church's 2010 family/youth camp. Also gonna enjoy the beach if there is a chance. CANT WAIT!!

Would wan to type more but my brain is frigging drained. Muet T-minus 7days. SIGH T.T
pictures followed.Enjoy~
My car's antenna was visited by a bug recently
And, its gonna stay that way

One more thing. I'm not a fan of Korean singers. Stop manipulating me!
P/s: Not gonna happen in the future also.. rawr.

Let it out & Let it in~

Anyway, forgot to mention that I actually babysit Puiyeeng's puppy(i think he still is) last Saturday morning..just to know whats the fun of having a puppy. Its only for a short period of time and mind you the puppy did actually survive under my hands & I think he enjoyed it :P. Its called a shi tzu. A breed for the royal family in Ancient China, (yes, when they are still building great walls & writing with sticks with a fur attached at the end of it). It was somehow, fun to have it around...although he is like.. jealous that I'm eating McD and kept barking all the way while i'm eating it.. even attempted to climb up the table to get my food..adorable indeed .. haha.
My name is Nicholas. Nicholas Lee. I like my pink ball alot. Don't touch it.

Speaking of food. Well, all sane people out there, its the time of the year again! Yes.. it is! Its the one and only SuShi Bonanza! Went to Sushi King with classmates today and ate like there isnt a tomoro...well given the condition of my budget for this month and I dont think I can afford another day of sushi mania. Anyhow...enjoyed my self there, and I bet my tastebuds enjoyed themselves even more .. haha.
Smoked Salmon...magnifique!
Burp :p

Also got to test drive jeff's Mini Cooper. Well.. i gotta admit I did fail at an epic proportion at manual transmission = =. The car is awesome anyway. Real sleek. Not a family car though.
The interior is nice :)
With a 200Grand price tag on it, this car is anything but Mini in terms of price

Well... goodbye again?
p/s: Some thoughts are best left alone.

L'automne

560 words/facts/craps juiced out by my one and only authentic brain juice. Please don't fail me this time. Or its gonna be 2 weeks of anarchy in my life routine. 2 more weeks. Yes.. its T-W-O, two more weeks!! 14Days. 336Hours. 20,160Minutes. 1,209,600Seconds. And its gonna come crashing on me. I aim for only the best at what I'm good at.. even if it sound preposterous. Time to move beyond my limitations and boundaries. If ur still wandering. I'm talking about MUET. HAHA.

Speaking of defying probabilities. Well, Ladies&Gentelman From Aus To Msia.
They succeed

With no skype, no msn, no e-mail.. not even snail mail! Only by phone & sms. And ofc meet up when theres a chance. Kudos to the newly wed couple that night, they made a statement that night that long-distance relationship is possible. Aside from that, both of them are from entirely different family backgrounds. One grew up from a family manufacturing noodles while the other came from a family of lawyers.

Also, be the bell ringer for the debate semi-finals. It was quite an epic battle..and also .. a lil funny. Tried refraining my self frm chuckling of laughing.. well .. manage to but left out a wide grin occasionally..haha. Anyhow the results was pretty unexpected. Seriously.. I was betting that the team I ringing bell for would win .. bt somehow it turned the other way around. Its just like how almost all the grammy awards gt snatched by the Hurt Locker away from Avatar. Saw one of the debate members shed tears as she left school. Dint cry .. jst shed. Wiping tears walking quickly out from my school. Staying strong till the end. Admirable.
You have to pay dead attention, they speak in a speed of light

Life, is a wonder of four seasons. The bitter winter, bright summer, lovely spring and windy fall. Is these seasons that makes our life's journey a whole lot more spicy.


P/s:Am pretty busy recently. So that would conclude why I went missing for so long.

Shine On

Was suppose to download Shine On by Eric Bibb. Instead I downloaded this song by accident = = . Surprisingly I liked it. So here it goes, Enjoy~~~ or not :P

Shine On by James Blunt

Are they calling for our last dance?

I see it in your eyes. In your eyes.

Same old moves for a new romance.

I could use the same old lies, but I'll sing,

Shine on, just, shine on!

Close your eyes and they'll all be gone.

They can scream and shout that they've been sold out,

But it paid for the cloud that we're dancing on.

So shine on. Just shine on!

With your smile just as bright as the sun.

'Cause they're all just slaves to the gods they made

But you and I just shone.

Just shone.

And when silence greets my last goodbye,

The words I need are in your eyes,
and I'll sing.

Shine On, just, shine on!

Close your eyes and they'll all be gone.

They can scream and shout that they've been sold out,

But it paid for the cloud that we're dancing on.

So shine on. Just shine on!

With your smile just as bright as the sun.

'Cause they're all just slaves to the gods they made,

But you and I just shone.

Just shone.

Calm & quite with some noise before its over. Nice :)

Back to reality. 1st Quarter of this year gone. Poof! Nada! Gone! Evaporate! Time flies.. really flies whether am I enjoying it or not. Anyhow.. Muet 'trials' coming weds and the real deal is gonna come around in less than a months time.*SCREAM*

And the fact that I am starting to believing aiming for band 6 is a fools errand. This just doesnt seem right. sigh. I need more time .. more time to not only brush up, but polish my language till it sparkles like a diamond with a spot light pointed at it. Not exaggerating. Its what it takes to aim for the best grade there is.

on the Bright side.
My taste bud is very blessed for this weekend. Had steamboat, which as usual gorge till a sinfully magnitude :P and 2 secret recipe cakes.(Choc-cheeese & Choc-Indulgence). Speaking of which I'm missing those 2 cakes NOW! Wish I had more.. HAHA. Okay..okay..self control *refrains from gluttony*

Slowly. Seeping from my fingertips
No matter the courage, Nor the grip
It no longer make sense, with the pieces it rips
Dive a dip, Jump a flip, Its time my mind take a trip
Away, far far away from this sinking ship


Weather the storm


Storms make trees take deeper root.

Chumbawamba!!

Busy, Rushing, Occupied. What more can I ask? Being bored will compel me to spring up more irrational thoughts.

Well, lets start from April 01. Which we all refer to it as April Fool. I was busy rushing a last minute work the night before and all the pranks start coming in after 12am. Which I totally forgot it was April Fool till I gt pranked and moreover i wasnt aware it was already past 12. This compels me to loosen up a little. Gotta admit things were quite tense this week.

Yeah.. thx an old fren for the very 1st prank which almost made me wake up my classmate in mid night, thx to Jeff who think I actually believe he is in Ipoh(dude better luck next time :P), Thx to the other 2 childhood frens that literally dropped a fake bombshell. Gotta really say, that was an awesome prank.HAHA.

And I actually did a Google search(Google answers all!) on the 'Origins of April Fool'. I'm lazy to type.. so just look HERE. Anyhow.. it dint really explain it though.

Other than that. Chemistry practical period has been quite interesting lately.. with all the chemicals and stuff. One of my classmates manage to wrap this up.
Obviously, he wasn't following instructions.HAHA
Chem,chem & more chemicals.

Life isn't long, There will be pain but life goes on
With every day, a brand new song
:)


There is nothing that happens by chance in our universe. Everything unfolds according to higher laws - everything is regulated by divine order. Peace Pilgrim
On how things been turning out in my life. I'm starting to believe this isnt a joke anymore.
