Shall I move thee to another place?
My newly registered domain name and domain host is finally usable. Now I should start to plan what am I going to do with the site now...
This is a brief information about my new site:
The address about my new site is http://www.walklight.co.cc
Don't bother about the name as there's no special meaning behind it. I shall remind you again, DON'T TRANSLATE IT INTO CHINESE!! ARGH.....you still translated.....I hate you.
Due to the registration of this address, I am now able to get myself a new email. I will still be keeping in touch with my old one (hotmail) though.
My new email address : yhpoh91@walklight.co.cc
Now, back to the topic, should I move this whole blog over to that site? That way I can stop relying on the service provided by Blogspot. Is that good? Or should I just continue to blog here? Leave some comments about this please.

Gundam 00 - A world full of fantasy for future inspiration
I have just finished watching the whole series of Gundam 00. This is a good Gundam series for Gundam fans. I know someone whose name is S******e sure won't like it because it is really too high technological where this kind of technology does not exist in today's world...hahaha...don't get angry...hahaha
Let me first introduce the series. This series is divided into 2 seasons, with 25 episodes each. The story starts with a group of people trying to attain a peaceful world by eradicating war. These people are called Celestial Being (or short-form CB, by the protesters...but the word CB has a different meaning for me, and many other Malaysians, LOL). Celestial Being is a terrorist-like anti-government organization who opposes the starting of war through military action. This sounds contradicting, but they fight with their high technological mobile suit called Gundam, and can easily overpower the countries' military power.
These Gundam suits are powered by GN drive, by distributing GN particle. Seriously, I don't know the real meaning of GN, but I know it has something to do with photon. In this series, there is a supercomputer with Artificial Intelligence called Veda. It is so powerful that whoever controls it can control the whole world. I don't wish to continue anymore, whoever wants to know the progress of the story, please watch it...you will not regret.
After watching this series, I have a feel that this kind of technology is possible to be created. Maybe we can't derive what is GN particles, but surely there are things that we can use to generate electrical energy without draining our earth's resources. The moment we achieve that, we are free from Petroleum Worries.
The Veda is also quite interesting for me. I've always imagined for an AI who is so powerful yet controllable. And for the innovators, if we are able to have their function of connecting to the computer, we would be superhuman. I just like to connect myself to my computer. With that, I will be able to save all the knowledge in my textbook into my brain. This will ensure my A in exam...lol...
Whatever it is, it is still a fantasy to be achieve. If it is possible, I would like to try to make an AI. That AI doesn't have to be so powerful that it can control everything, but to be able to satisfy me by talking to me and taking care of the household electrical appliances. This would be enough...haha..so greedy...lol...

To Forgive and To Ask for Forgiveness
Recently, I have found out that I have neglected some of my friends. We were close back when we were in the same class during our form 5 year. But now, for some unknown reason, we have stopped talking to each other. To tell you the truth, I do not really know the real reason...
I believe that the reason that caused this is me. It is always me. I can't really do much about my personality. I am quite rude these days. I don't know why. I have regretted that it went this way. I want it to return to the condition like we were before. It is true that I don't really like their class, maybe it's for the people or the subject of their class. I really would like to ask for forgiveness.
Among all my neglected friends, the friend I would like to say sorry the most is ChiaChia. She was one of my best friend, yet now we are not talking anymore. This is making me feeling uneasy. It feels like something is missing. I don't want it this way. So...Chia...sorry girl, it might have been my mistake, I would like to apologize to you, will you forgive me?? Can we return to how we were like before??
I felt this because recently I viewed my class's (5st3 2008) blog. The video played there touched me. We were so united and caring back then. I would like to feel that again...Friends, let's be friends again...

Emotional Head-On Collision
Today, something big happened in our class. It might look small to some of the people, but it is big for me. The principal went into our class!! The reason of him coming to our class has to be flashed back to 2 days ago (Tuesday).
On tuesday, during the transitional period between the third last period and second last period, Pn Hong came to our class. She was announcing about the time to stay back in school during the Bulan Rahmadan period. For some purpose, we asked her about whether we have to stay back in school even after the research project is completed. And guess what, YES, we have to stay back. This caused the arousal of our anger. She had promised us that we are exempted from staying back in school at the beginning. I was not sure of this promise as my memories are blurry. I can say that I have heard somebody telling me this but I was not sure that it was her. So, I kept quiet.
However, one of my friend spoke up to her and told her that she promised us. It was futile. She denied it completely and said that my friend was rude, talking in such a manner to a teacher. Actually, by that time my friend asks, he asked it in a low tone, but when he was scolded by her for the 'rude' behaviour, he got angry. The voice level kept on increasing. He asked some of us to be witnesses to the promise. I stood by him but Pn Hong kept on denying. There's nothing much we can do but to keep saying that she promised us and she is now denying that promise. She got angry and tell us that no one had been this disrespect her in her whole working life.
Pn Hong blurted out that she is the highest ranking teacher in our school. She said that during the prize-giving ceremony, the ranks of the teachers in our school is displayed. The highest rank in the school was displayed as DG52. I admit that I saw it, because I was there during the ceremony. She told us that most of us will think that that rank belongs to the principal, but NO, it belongs to her. Her rank is even higher than the principal. LOL. There's no point telling us this to show off, is there? She kept on saying things like she is the best in working in the whole school, no teacher can do a better work than her, even all the teachers compliment her by saying 'She's number 1!!' She was going so emotional that eventually that her eyes are watery in front of us. Is she really that good in teaching?? Do you actually believe it?? I'll say NO!!!
After these all long argument, we felt that it was pointless. We stopped arguing and apologized to her, for the reason that she almost cried. It is our male instinct to give up on an argument when a girl cries. For me, if a girl cried in front of me, I will soften my heart and apologize if it was because of me, or try to help if it is possible. This is another girl power...LOL...
After apologizing, Pn Hong went away. After school, my friend went to her office alone to apologize again. After listening to what she has to say/scold, she said that she will forgive him and forget about what happened earlier. All of us thought that this is the end, but hell NO~!!~~!!
Today, the principal came into our class on behalf of her. He came in and scolded all of us for being rude to her and tried to gang up on her. Are witnesses gang?? So the witnesses in court are actually a gang of the victim?? No, right?? How can the principal say this?? It's not fair...My friend then asked about the reason the authority always use the phrase "You are a part of Chio Min, you have to obey the rules, if not, you can get out from this school." It sounds OMG right?? It's like a taboo for me, how can we ask them such a question?? But he asked anyway...and the argument between him and the principal started. All of us were stoned in the class reading books quietly. None of us spoke/muttered anything. The argument gets worse by time. Eventually, Ms Eng came in and the principal dropped the argument. My friend apologized to him. At least my friend knows that his voice is quite loud, but the principal did not care about his own voice, as if he has the right to speak extremely loudly. Haizz...I hope that this case will end here, I really hope that my friend will be alright after this incident.
From the argument, I can see that the principal is quite unreasonable. He is just saying that he has the right to say that, without having to explain. We are already matured enough to listen to the reason. If we know the reason, maybe we can just follow or sit down and think of a solution to make both parties satisfy. So, why can't we listen to the reason?? If the school is to never listen to what the students have to say, or how they feel, the school will not be a school anymore. It will become prison-like. We are in a democracy country. I am not saying that we can do whatever we want, but at least let us speak out what we are thinking and take our minds into consideration when making a rule.

Girl Power
Girls...are you aware of your hidden abilities?? The ability that only girls possess?? If you do, congratulation, you are able to overpass someone easier than the others...
How do I know about it?? I think I am one of the victim...LOL...From what I know, many guys have failed to escape from that special ability casted by a charming girl...
Case #1:
Wake me up when I was still asleep to ask me to do her a favour. Normally, I will be very mad because my sleep is disturbed. I remember that 2 years ago when I went for a trip with my friends, Ivan disturbed my sleep by doing something beside me. He was scolded by me badly, although it turns out I lost in the argument. At least I put up a fight...LOL...
However, when girls call me with phone or whatever method, I will not be pissed. Sometimes if that girl is charming, I will agree to whatever she asked for immediately. So far there have been about 2 or 3 girls that did this to me. The girls are just so powerful that I cannot resist helping them...LOL...
Case #2:
Ask for guide in study. My class is quite weird, we cannot get what we ask directly. For example, if you ask Ivan about something in the book, he will say 'Yin Wei Ai (because of love)" which does not bring any meaning. However, if you get a girl to ask him, he will try his best to figure out that problem no matter what he is doing at that time. Weird huh?? No, it's just the ability of a girl...
So, are girls amazingly powerful?? Unbelievable?? Believe it...

Become a bad student - RM60.00
Have you ever think about paying RM60 to be a naughty student who does not listen to what the teacher says, or do homework that the teacher gives?? Anyone?? I guess not, why pay for it when you can get it free?? Right??...
I am here to announce that I did it. Today, the MUET teacher came into my class and 'summoned' all the MUET retakers to another classroom for MUET lesson. I have no choice but to obey as the teacher came personally. So, I agreed to move to that classroom, but I am not going to listen to what she teaches. There, I was being assumed to be a poor student with a poor band, 3 or 4 I guess. Me and my friends discussed our situation with the teacher and we finally get to a consensus that we are allowed to not listen to what she is teaching, but we have to remain in the classroom during the lesson.
Immediately, I agreed. How hard can it be to sit in another classroom doing nothing but my own revision?? Everywhere is the same, isn't it?? But the nightmare comes after that. As the only 'non-listening' students, we talked a lot. I began to feel that we are doing something that is not right, at least it is to me. Am I doing the right thing?? "Yes!!", I told myself. I will continue to study on my own unless special circumstances arise. That's what I did it, that's how Malaysian does it, and it has worked pretty well so far (quoted from Iron Man).

Don't Try This @ Home
I warn you, don't drive too fast on the road. It is dangerous. It is already so dangerous in game, not to mention real life...LOL...look for yourself...
Good day?? Bad day??
Am I dreaming or this is the reality? I am so confused. Everything seems fake to me. For once, I was the best, but in another moment, I have failed to maintain my position. Why is that? Am I really that inconsistent?
Today, the day after my small school monthly test, I got back my results, for certain subjects. My physics dropped dramatically. Although to the others I am still ok, but I can feel myself being incompetent. My friends were able to answer the questions without mistakes. As a person who is not subjected to memorize the graphs, I made a mistake. I should have memorized it, it will give me at least 3 marks...LOL...
Potential energy stores inside the object itself, not on others. Why am I so stupid to not fully understand it? I admit, this is my mistake...Nevermind, I still have other subjects, excluding my chemistry which will also get me an A prime (means not A).
Haizz...I feel sad...what can I do? Can anyone comfort me? What should I do? The trial is coming, and my results are dropping. I won't be able to enter NUS or NTU that way. What am I supposed to do now? Study? Even without anyone to ask? I don't know, I seriously don't know. I want to have someone who is kind enough to study together with me and save me from the despair due to the pressure...who would that be?
Nevermind, at least today I get to eat Pizza for Rm5. My friend treated us for dinner at Pizza Hut (thanks ya cs). Rm5 for a meal of pizza, where can you find? LOL...this itself has already cheer me up. HEHEHE...I should get back to study now...

I am not incompetent anymore!!
Yay, after 2 years of incompetent driving life, I have finally become competent. I was supposed to change my driving license on this coming friday, but I know that I am not free by that time. So, I went all the way to JPJ office in Kulim to find out if I can change my license earlier.
The weather today was not very good, it rained for quite a long time when the school time ends. I waited for a long time before I get to go home. It was so late that I was afraid that the office is closed by the time I reach there. It sounds far right? IT IS NEAR...just that I missed it the first time I searched for it. LOL. It is amazing that Kulim has such an office when there is not much such office in the whole Kedah state. With that, I am glad that I do not have to go all the way to bm or penang just to renew my license.
When I stepped into the office, it was very crowded, not to mention the parking lot was cramped. I was being nervous because I thought that the question I was going to ask is stupid. I was going to ask whether I can renew my Probationary license to a Competent license before the expiry date. To most, it is known that we have to carry the license for 2 years. After asking at the information counter, I realized that we can renew our license at most a week earlier than the expiry date. I was happy and wanted to renew for a 5-year license, but I could not. According to the officer, I can only renew up to 1 year if I am to renew before the expiry date, how comes ar?? Weird...Nevermind, so I renewed for a 1-year license.
Now, I am already a competent driving license holder. I am not incompetent anymore. I am going to take away the P sticker as soon as I get on my car the next time.

Am I Being Unlucky or Lucky?
I watched the world cup matches for 2 days straight. This was my first experience in watching a football match either at my friend's house or the mamak stall. At first, I have a great hope that the team that I favour will win with a good score.
The teams that I like are:
-Brazil
-Argentina
They are the sole reason that made me watch those matches. Brazil against Netherland. It sounds funny that Brazil lose, but this is the fact, LOL. I supported Brazil from the start right till the end, and they lost 2-1. This is still acceptable as the score range is small and they have scored a goal in 9 minutes. Compared to that, during the match of Argentina against Germany, Argentina lost in a pitiful way, 4-0. How can they lose without even scoring any goal while their opponent scored 4 times? However, it cannot be denied that the Germans have a good defend. It looks impenetrable to me. But a zero is unexpected. How can such a good team lose without scoring any goal?
Am I lucky or unlucky? For 2 times straight, whichever team that I cheered on had lost. Was it me who cause their lost? No way I guess. However, it was a good experience to tell me not to gamble. If I tried gamble on the games, I might have lost a big amount of money. Money is to be earned by brain, not gamble. So, don't try gamble unless you are prepared to lose.

Go or Die??
In the previous post, I have said that I chose the chess competition over the Olympiad Math competition. Today, from what my friend has told me, I am to be punished.
He said that I will have to pay RM12 for the entrance fee and get some demerit for it. What is going on here? Isn't that competition is personal based? What rights does he have to punish me just because I did not go during that day?
About the entrance fee, I have heard nothing about it before this. During the registration for the competition, I am not told that I need to pay for the entrance fee or anything about it. Now, the school insists that they have paid the entrance fee for me but I did not go, so I will have to return the money. I have not heard of any payment since the beginning of this thing, not even the fact that the school will pay for us. RM12 is not much, but the pride is. If we were not told that we need to pay if I did not go when registering, the school should have told us earlier and let us sign an agreement. There is no such agreement. I did not agreed that I will go no matter what happens. There is no parental agreement either. How can they ask us to give up everything and go just because they have registered our names?
I admit that I have some signature on some of the name lists, but that does not mean that I will surely go. I even told the person who was in duty to let us sign the name list that I might not go on that day. By right, after knowing the fact that I might not go, the school should have already taken some action. They should have warned me that I will have to pay back the money, but they did not. This is the problem. They are just trying to show that they have authority to claim money from the students with whatever reasons there are. On that day, there are only 1 call from my friend saying that I must go. I told him to tell the teacher in charge (stupid idiot bastard) that I am not going for the sake of another competition. No actions were taken by them either.
I really don't have any confidence in the Olympiad Math. I might not even get any placing there. However, in chess, I got the third. If he is saying that this is not as good as that one, then I suppose he wants us to participate in as many competition as possible, but not trying to win them. Either way, the marks that we get have got nothing to do with him, he still gets his salary even if we get 0 mark, maybe that will make his life even easier. For the marks, even though the participation might be national level, it is in the Persatuan category. I have 3 other national level participation marks for it already, and they can't be stacked up, only the highest will be used and they are all equally high, unless I win. I don't think I can win. Compared to that, with the third place in chess competition, I can fill up the achievement marks column for the club category.
Now, back to the punishment, am I really going to be demerit-ed? I hope not, because if it really happens, this means that the school is not using their brain. Has this thing has anything to do with my discipline? You can say that I am a coward for retreating, but you cannot say that I am not following the rules. I went for another activity, to be precise, school activity. I am still in school anyway. I cannot be considered as playing truant or anything else, I stayed in school until 12.30pm which is the end of CCA hours.
Now I might have to meet the teacher personally, to get scolded maybe. I might get demerit-ed but I will fight for my own rights. If I get demerit-ed for the reason that I am speaking out my reasons, then tell me, what else can I do besides feeling disappointed with the government for employing such a teacher?

50-50 Bet
Today I went to school with a mind knowing that I will have to make a choice between Olympiad Math or School Chess Competition.
Olympiad Math definitely can help me gain more marks in my cocurriculum grade, only if I win anything that can gain me marks. The participation is uncertain. Some say that it is district level and others national level. I wonder which one it really is. The participation marks is always planned to be given up as I have already signed up for the National Physics Quiz which is also a national level competition.
Chess competition, it is a competition which is only school level where the marks allocated is extremely low compared to the one in national level. It sounds poor right? I bet your are thinking that way, but wait till you read the whole passage. Although it is not that great, it has fewer competitors. There are 6 people participating all together. This means that I only have to beat 3 people in order to get the 3rd prize and get my marks.
My chess skill is not good, not as good as doing sciences and playing games. However, I have worse skill in answering Olympiad Math questions. I have done a little practice before. I cannot answer any of the questions. It is not hyperbolic, it is the truth. Try it and you will know. I have trained for 1 whole week for the chess competition before I get to know that the Olympiad Math falls on the same day as the chess competition. I even tried to get Ivan, Samuel and JinSiang's guide beforehand. So, should I give up the chess competition for the sake of the national level competition even I have done so many things to win in chess?
And the decision was - Chess Competition!! In the end I went for the chess competition. So far, I think that I have made the right choice. My score in the chess competition was as below,
1st Match : Draw (play till I nearly lose and he felt sienz to continue, so draw agreed)
2nd Match (against JinSiang) : Win (Yes, finally can win against him, even this might be the only time in my whole life...)
3rd Match (against Ivan) : Lose (too hiong...can't beat)
4th Match : Win (lucky I guess...)
If I am not mistaken, I might have the chance to win the 3rd prize, but I will need to wait for the actual confirmation by the competition committee. Hope that I can get the 3rd prize for the marks itself, not the medal/trophy and surely not the name.

A New Schooling Life With A New Classroom
Tired of the toilet-classroom that I have been studying for 1 whole year? Yes, it is really 1 whole year (May 09 to May 10). However, this has become the past. Today, officially, we have moved to a new classroom. It is called new but it does not have to be new (unused, still wrapped with plastic, lol).
Here, we have 2 wall-mounted fan with variable fan-speed at both the sides of the classroom directly facing the 2 rows of the tables. In the middle, we have 2 ceiling fan (one nearer to the front and one nearer to the back). This causes the air to be able to flow naturally unlike our old classroom where the accumulated Carbon Dioxide gas does not have anywhere to go to. One setback for the new classroom is that the windows are a little handicapped. What I meant is that the pieces of glass cannot be opened horizontally. The maximum that we can force it to be opened to is still within an angle which is less than 90 degree. How funny, a window that cannot be opened like a window should even without anything blocking its way.
Enough with the window, now let us talk about the whiteboard. In the morning, we have 1 penetrated whiteboard. A big hole though, wonder who used it, punctured it with marker? After knowing that, I brought another whiteboard which is physically undamaged from the neighbour classroom. After discussing for a while, we switched the broken whiteboard with another one from the other classroom. Now we have 2 whiteboard. Teachers, now that you have a great amount of spaces to write, please explain things better.
I am quite satisfied with this classroom. Now, as the monitor, I have to keep this classroom as clean and as nice as possible, though it might never happen. It's Yee Hui after all.
Tomorrow's the registration day for the 2010 batch form six students. This made the flashback of the scenes when I have just started my form six life a year ago showing in front of me. I hope that there will be some nice girls or maybe some talkable fellows that can talk to me either on studies or other things. I am really expecting nice girls by the way. All these hope can be known whether to be realized or not by tomorrow.
As the representative of 6AS2 (a.k.a. Form Six Physics Class), I am asked to give a speech about the details on the subjects we are taking, the exam format, a brief study guide and what to expect. I am still preparing the speech. I hope that it will all end up good.
God, please do grant me some luck tomorrow...Thanks...

A Day Almost Without Computer...
Today I almost unable to use my computer. I have been very very very very very (add as many 'very' as you like) busy today. Let me tell you what I have done today.
In the morning around 8 o'clock, I woke up after a good sleep with painful eyes. This pain is due to the cross-eye training I did the night before. I have been trying to look at 3d pictures or videos by using the cross-eye stereoscopic method. After 3 hours of training and practices, I am finally able to view those pictures with a short time to focus on the object. Let's not talk about this.
After waking up, I did not turn on my computer like I usually do. I picked up my book from the side of my bed, went all the way down to the dining hall to study. I was the earliest to wake up. Using that time, I managed to study for about 2 chapters of Physics (Capacitor and Electric Current).
Then, all my family members woke up. We went out to eat at K.G. (the restaurant/hawker center behind Minat Supermarket). This took me for about an hour. Before leaving, I met 2 of my old friends (from my secondary schooling years, although I am still in the same school right now, but they are not anymore...). They came by Toyota Vios G specs. This really made me jealous. I would like to have one if possible...
Afterwards, we went to Giant supermarket to buy grilling pit. Tell you something funny, I got stucked at the entrance of the parking lot. The machine just stop responding after I press the ticket button. Nothing came out, and the gate was not opening. I panicked there, with lots of people waiting behind me. After fooling me for some time, the machine finally responded. I quickly parked my car at the parking slot near to the machine, as revenge...lol...It is very strange that it seems that I am the last one to enter that parking area as when I went to get my car when we are leaving, the road is already blocked.
Reaching home, I quickly study the 2 last chapters, but I could not manage to finish them. Only one chapter is done. Tired, I went for a nap in the living room. While I was enjoying my sleep time peacefully, I was woke up by my brother to make me go to Megamall Penang for shopping. I was very reluctant at first, but I gave up anyway.
By the time we are going to go home, I was stucked at the exit terminal of the parking lot. It does seem that I am not favoured by the machines... It took my ticket but would not open the gate for me, how weird...Finally I got out with the help of one of the workers there.
At home, we had BBQ, which lasted till about 10pm, and that's the time I was able to touch my computer for the first time today...
Oh yeah, forgot to tell you, I forgot to cut my hair, might be scolded or cut tomorrow...I do not care, I am going to cut it short anyway, if they are to cut it nicely, just do it, as long as it's free and nice...

Yet Another Birthday
Today was my birthday. Although it is not really a special day for me, and I was rejected for an invitation for a date (watching movie only) with my dream girl. I do not wish to reveal her name, but I guess most of my friends know who she is.
My birthday starts with an sms greeting from my best friend. Honestly, I did not expect him to send me any greetings, but he did it anyway. I am so surprised and I am happy. This followed by loads of greetings on Facebook, even my TaeKwon-Do instructor greeted me as well.
In the morning, I went to school as usual. Today was the first day of school after a week's break. Test results were released today. My results were not surprisingly good. This is expected as I did not spend a lot of time studying math and pa. However, I am glad that my Physics results was not bad. I got a solid A (93 marks) for my Physics. This is the first time I get a mark higher than 90 in form 6. I am going to keep it up. I will make sure all my subjects get an A during the real STPM. This is what it matters the most. To all my friends who had helped me before, I am glad that I had your helps, without them, I would still be someone who is good at nothing.
Today reminds me of myself in the past. In the past, I was all into studying, neglecting my social life and the others. After studying in 6RS2 for half a year, knowing friends whom I did not often talk to, I have changed. I have became a person who knows the way to enjoy life. I go out for food and movies quite often now. I even went all the way to Gurney for a movie which I am not sure whether there are tickets left. I think I have became a little matured this way. Although it is much money-spending than before, but I feel quite good about it. I do not think that I have wasted the money, instead, I used it to buy 'something' I should have bought a long time ago. That something is called friendship. I might look hard-to-approach, but in fact, I believe that it is my attitude towards the others. Now, I am able to think of others as the same as I am, if not better than I am. Maybe this is the reason they are now willing to talk to me.
As for driving experience, I believe I have also 'level-ed up'. In the past, I would have just stick behind cars even though they are slow. Now, I am ready to overtake other cars whenever there is an opening. I would go for any openings between cars if I want. I have also tried to push my car to run at 5000rpm. With that, my car can gain quite an amount of power during low gears. It would just speed up whenever I step harder on the pedal. I know that this will consume more petrol, so I only drive that way whenever I am in a rush. I hope that it will not cause any trouble to myself and the others.
I wish that I can go through this year safe and sound. I hope that I will be safe throughout the whole year. As for STPM, I wish that I can do it with a minimal effort during the examination. I want a 4.0 for my STPM and a band 6 for my MUET. For my computer, I do not expect much this year, a printer with scanner maybe...unless I get a fortune suddenly then I will buy a good graphics card along with G25/G27 gaming wheel. Car...I want a good car with a good audio system. The power of the car should not be too small. A kancil's power is not enough to amaze me. I wish for a VIOS-like car (the shape). It seems that I am too greedy on my wishes...hahaha...I don't know whether it can be fulfilled, but I will make my dream of STPM 4.0 come true.

A Manga Moment
Today, I think it could be counted as today, it was at 12.57am after all, I finished a series of manga. It is called 'Ichigo 100%'. This manga has a total of 167 chapters, each filled with different kind of excitement. I do not deny that it sometimes contain a little ecchi and harem scene, but that is the essence that made this manga a success. It describes a variety of personalities, from a quiet style, to a full-going style. In this manga, the main character, Manaka Junpei （マナか淳平）also shows an indecisive personality. I do not know whether this kind of personality occurs in most of the people or it is just me, but I am sure that I am similar to him, except in the way that there are many girls clinging onto him.
The story starts with the main character, Manaka Junpei crosses the sign stating 'no entry' to the roof of the school building. There he saw a beautiful scene of sunset. (I think it's sunset.) Suddenly a girl, a sweet girl, a pretty girl (I do not know how to describe anymore.) fell down from the 'sky'. In that fall, the main character got a glance on the strawberry panties of the girl. In a panic, the girl ran away leaving her math notebook behind. The main character picked up the notebook and intended to return it to the girl. Upon returning according to the name written on the notebook, he found that the girl with the name Toujou Aya （東城綾） (written on the notebook) was a plain girl who looks like a nerd. (I like that style though, seems more talkable) After being told not to read the contents of the notebook, the main character got curious and started reading. There he found a short novel written by Toujou. Toujou seems to be not having confidence about her work when Manaka told her that she has the talent. Manaka told her that he is going to become a film producer. (or director, I forgot...lol) At that time, Toujou fell for Manaka, but instead of knowing her love for himself, Manaka confessed to another girl named Tsukasa Nishino. Manaka who has poor grades asked Toujou to help him in studying for the entrance exam for Izumizaka High. At that entrance exam, Manaka finds that Toujou is the girl he saw on the rooftop, and started falling for her. The story goes on with more and more new characters.
When I was reading near the ending, I was thinking that this manga might not end properly in a well manner. However, the main character made a choice and be together with Tsukasa Nishino. I was hoping that he will get together with Toujou Aya since they are both friendly to each other, but that choice given by the author was the best for everyone. Manaka is definitely unable to go into university with his poor grades. If he is with Toujou, who is an author who won an award for her novel, this might causes Toujou to be unable to pursue her own dream to become a successful author. For the best, Manaka gave up on his first love and chose Tsukasa. However, Tsukasa leaves for Paris to study on pastry making. Everyone goes into separate ways although they were together being the best friends. This taught me that even though I like being together with my friends, I should not follow what my friends do but make my own decision. This is for my own sake. After a few years, everyone gathers and is revealed that each of them became matured and are doing their best in their on path of career. I wish that I could be the same. There will be a time where I have to be separated with my friends to pursue my own dream. And after a few years, I hope that each of us can gather with a higher level of maturity and successfulness.
I know it might be frightening to ask someone to read a manga with 167 chapters when we are having STPM exam this year. However, if you are into manga, and not knowing what manga to read, just read up Ichigo 100% and I believe that it will satisfy you.

Suddenly a girl, a sweet girl, a pretty girl (I do not know how to describe anymore.) fell down from the 'sky'. In that fall, the main character got a glance on the strawberry panties of the girl. In a panic, the girl ran away leaving her math notebook behind. The main character picked up the notebook and intended to return it to the girl. Upon returning according to the name written on the notebook, he found that the girl with the name Toujou Aya （東城綾） (written on the notebook) was a plain girl who looks like a nerd. (I like that style though, seems more talkable) After being told not to read the contents of the notebook, the main character got curious and started reading. There he found a short novel written by Toujou. Toujou seems to be not having confidence about her work when Manaka told her that she has the talent. Manaka told her that he is going to become a film producer. (or director, I forgot...lol) At that time, Toujou fell for Manaka, but instead of knowing her love for himself, Manaka confessed to another girl named Tsukasa Nishino. Manaka who has poor grades asked Toujou to help him in studying for the entrance exam for Izumizaka High. At that entrance exam, Manaka finds that Toujou is the girl he saw on the rooftop, and started falling for her. The story goes on with more and more new characters.
When I was reading near the ending, I was thinking that this manga might not end properly in a well manner. However, the main character made a choice and be together with Tsukasa Nishino. I was hoping that he will get together with Toujou Aya since they are both friendly to each other, but that choice given by the author was the best for everyone. Manaka is definitely unable to go into university with his poor grades. If he is with Toujou, who is an author who won an award for her novel, this might causes Toujou to be unable to pursue her own dream to become a successful author. For the best, Manaka gave up on his first love and chose Tsukasa. However, Tsukasa leaves for Paris to study on pastry making. Everyone goes into separate ways although they were together being the best friends. This taught me that even though I like being together with my friends, I should not follow what my friends do but make my own decision. This is for my own sake. After a few years, everyone gathers and is revealed that each of them became matured and are doing their best in their on path of career. I wish that I could be the same. There will be a time where I have to be separated with my friends to pursue my own dream. And after a few years, I hope that each of us can gather with a higher level of maturity and successfulness.
I know it might be frightening to ask someone to read a manga with 167 chapters when we are having STPM exam this year. However, if you are into manga, and not knowing what manga to read, just read up Ichigo 100% and I believe that it will satisfy you.

The Amazement of 3D Movie...
Today, I went to Gurney Plaza again. This was the 3rd time I went there for movie, for the amazing 3D movie, Avatar. The last two times I went there with my friends, we did not get to watch that movie due to ticketing problems. The whole hall was full, we did not have the chance to buy the tickets. Today, 1 month after the 1st attempt, we finally watched the movie, that 3D movie!!
This movie is very nice by default. With the 3D version, it is a bonus. The screen is clearer, with depths caused by the 3D effects. The plants and animals seems to be 'out' of the screen. This is the first time I ever watched a full-length 3D movie. It was a total of 2 hours and 45 minutes!! Wow, I loved it.
After watching it, I became interested in 3D. I wish to be able to convert my normal movies into 3D version, but it does seems not very possible, or should I say not easy if it really is possible. This will be really enjoyable when you are able to watch 3D movies at home, with a pair of 3D glasses. Out of movies, I heard that gaming experience also can be added with 3D. The 3D Vision of Nvidia enables gamers to convert most of the modern games into 3D mode, to be played along with Nvidia's special-made 3D glasses. Imagine playing a racing simulation game with 3D, sitting in a racing bucket seat, controlling a Logitech G27 steering wheels on a 30" Samsung monitor. I LOVE IT, but it is not quite possible to get it, unless I suddenly become rich....lol...

The Day We Went Out...
Today, I was very happy. Today I went out for a movie with my friends. They are mostly girls!! This was the fun part. I loved girls, especially that girl whose name I do not wish to reveal. This was like a date with her + some of my other friends. Too bad that I did not take any photos of/with her. I was just a driver-like person who happened to be their friend.
First, we went to Sunway Carnival Mall. We went there using the BKE highway. Something funny happened. When I reached the toll plaza, I flashed out the SmartTAG and passed through it. My friends were like 'Wow, how did you do it? You were not stopping to pay!!' It's just smartTAG, and I do not have the idea of how they lived up to this moment when they often go for karaoke at Sunway. Have they really driven a car? Have they driven on a highway before? Or are they SuaKu enough not to know about these things? It's an answerless question; even if you ask them (I think that I should use 'him' instead of 'them'). So funny...I can't stop laughing right now...HAHAHAHA
Then, we reached Sunway Carnival Mall. We dashed to the cinema, trying to buy the tickets for 72 Tenants. I let the girls to decide on the movie time and to buy the tickets. The queue is as long as a coconut tree trunk lying down. It took them 30 minutes to get to the counter. While expecting for tickets, we were let down. The tickets were sold out. Sold out for every movie, every hall and every movie time!! How could that be? And the people there were still queuing with high hopes!! With a disappointed feeling, we left Sunway Carnival Mall, and set a new destination - Megamall Penang.
At Megamall, we headed directly to the cinema. This was much better. Only some of the places were full. However, we did not get to watch 72 tenants. So, we watched Wolfman. This movie ar...I don't know what to say about it. It was set in the 19th centuries, a time line which I do not prefer. I prefer modern lifestyle. The sound was not bad, it was able to surprise me by scaring me. If I am given the chance to rate this movie, I will give it 7 out of 10. It's the time line and the storyline which made me disappointed.
After the movie, as we were planning to leave, one of my friends, or should I made it clearer? The friend that I have a crush on, tripped her legs and fell down the staircase in the cinema hall. The way she fell seems serious and painful. Every one of my friends panicked. I rushed to her side and held her up. I am still feeling grateful that I have such a chance and I did it, thank you god. To a surprise, she was fine without any major injuries, although she was blue-blacked after reaching home.
Her birthday had passed, but I did not get to give her birthday present. I planned to give her today. I purposely made a big circle to send my friends home first. I was thinking of sending her home last. However, things did not work out as I planned. As soon as my other friend got off at a petrol station, she got off as well. It appears that her parents were waiting there for her already. With that sudden incident, or whatever term that is more suitable, I forgot to hand her the present.
I felt so down and useless. It was just a birthday present and yet I was unable to give. What kind of man am I? I am very disappointed in myself. I should have given her the present in front of everyone, bearing the teases by my friends. Or I should not do it, to protect her from being teased? I don't know. Never mind, all of this were the past, the fact was that I DID NOT GIVE HER THE PRESENT. I have to move on. Although I was sad, and I am still sad, with a regretful feeling as bonus, I must move on. I will either ask her out again soon or I should send the present to her house myself. I am still deciding on that...

Yummy Yummy, My First Homemade Spaghetti
Wow, I have finally tried it. I cooked it. I tasted it. I liked it. For a beginner cook like me, it is already a big achievement although it is not as tasty as what my friend cooked. This took me one hour to prepare and cook. However, my time is not wasted for nothing. I have made such a good meal for me and my family. The deliciousness (I wonder if this word do exist, lol) is indescribable. I love it. I will surely cook again sooner or later.
Here's some pictures of it...

Super Incident at Petrol Station
Have anyone encountered such an incident before? Yesterday evening, I went to a Petronas Petrol Station near my house. Yes, yesterday, but I have forgot to blog it, so I am blogging it today, lol. I am low on fuel (feels like talking crap right?) and I was eager to find a slot to pump the petrol. Then I found a slot with a White Kembara. The petrol cover is opened without the pump. It does look like it has done pumping the petrol, so I waited. After a serious look around, I found that there was no one near the car. Is this car dumped or something? Nevermind, I kept on waiting, probably the owner had a sudden stomachache and rushed to the toilet. But I was wrong, after about 5 minutes, I saw a woman carrying a baby and a child (the child was walking...I cannot imagine someone carrying two person at the same time...)from the petrol station mart. They were walking slowly, I really meant slow, towards the car. While they were walking, the woman looked at me, and then look away, as if it is normal and I should have waited for her. Nevermind, she is going to leave anyway right? But hell NO, she went to the pump, and start pumping. Does paying at the cashier requires 5 minutes long? The one beside this slot came after me and gone before she starts to pump, how can this be explained? She took the place as if it is a legal parking slot, and made me waited for her behind just so that she can buy her stuffs slowly. I still can remember the plate number of the car.
PET 6551
Perodua Kembara
Keep away from that car if you do not have time to waste. And yes, if the owner of that car read this, I'll tell you that I am the one driving the Blue Nissan Serena which stayed behind your car for at least 5 minutes, yesterday, 29 January 2010.

The happiness and sadness of a band 5
Today, I got my MUET results. In fact I knew the results at midnight today (1am something). I have received an sms reply stating that I got a band 5 for myself. For the first moment I felt surprised, I have never expected myself to get a band 5 after making so many mistakes in the reading paper. Imagine that you get more than 15 wrong answers when you normally get only 5 wrongs. This is the feeling I had before I knew my results. I was even afraid that I can't even get a band 4. However, it turns out great. I have achieved a band 5, although it is a super low one (225 marks in total).
Ironically, after thinking much, I started to feel sad. I am sad because those mistakes caused me to be unable to get a band 6. I am just a mere 35 marks short. I could have get a band 6 if I did better in reading and speaking component. It was my mistake. Now I am going to consider whether to retake the test again. I might get a band 6 by then, who knows?? Most of my friends are taking it again, why don't I take it again so that I can still join them while studying...hmm...this must be taken into serious consideration. One wrong move can cause my future to be wiped out...

A New Start With An Old Classroom
It is now 3 January 2010 (Sunday), the first day of school. Today morning, I woke up happily. I was hoping to get a better classroom, talk to my friends and perhaps get to know a few more girls.
However, when I reached school, all my imaginations, my dreams, my hopes gone poof. The new building in our school is still under construction, so it is unusable. There are more form 4 students this year, causing the opening of 4tm3 and 4tm4 (I don't know whether 4tm4 exists, I was told about it by my friend). Due to the existence of new classes, the number of classrooms is not sufficient to cover all the classes. Therefore, as a measure, the school moved them to the going-to-be upper six's classrooms. We, as the new upper six students, have no luck to get what we supposed to have. We got asked to go back to the old classroom which we used when we were in lower six. You cannot imagine the condition of the classroom if you have not seen it before. It's a former toilet and it is small. It is a disgrace of the school that when there are guests coming to visit the school, they walk-by every classroom except ours.
We then tried to reason with the teacher who is in-charge. The teacher then told us to be patient and endure while the new building is being constructed. Once it is done, we will be moving to somewhere else (not a confirm answer that we will be using the new classroom though). I can't see any reason to ignore us, form 6 science stream physics class while attending to the condition of the other forms. Are we incompetent? They always say that they will treat us as young adults. But did they do it? Is this the place where young adults should be studying? A toilet?
Sigh...There's nothing we can do now, just hope that the building would be done soon...

Here comes 2010
Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!
What's there to be happy about? There's nothing for us to happy anyway, other than more arguments, more money sucking events, more political issues...
First, let me make a wish. I'll write out this wish right here, so that him who grants wishes can see anytime he wants. What I want is something that can be seen yet cannot be seen. I want a good results for my STPM and my MUET. I want 4A (not A-) for my stpm and a band 6 for my MUET, then hopefully I can get into NTU or any prestigious university OUTSIDE of Malaysia. Please let my wish come true. I will be very very very happy for it.
Second, I would like to say something. Few minutes ago, I found out that I have to pay RM40 for a gathering thingy of my former class if I am to go. For a stingy person like me, RM40 is a big amount of money (for just 1 meal). If I am to choose, I will choose to spend the RM40 with my friends (you know who I guess) to eat something nicer in Penang Island or I will choose to save the money for future uses (e.g. buy something I like).
According to the intel I've gathered, the gathering is going to be a prom/ball-like. Personally I think that this is pointless. This is Malaysia. There's no point to make something like that, for teenagers like us. If I am to plan this thing, I will make it simple, e.g. eat at a normal restaurant that serves delicious food like Look Yuen which we only have to pay for about RM12++ each for a large variety of food.
Other than that, I've realise that the time-interval between gatherings is too short, thanks to Ivan who pointed that out and reminded me. I believe that gatherings should be done 5 years once, at least. However, this thing is an annual stuff, which is too frequently done. It will not be precious for some people as they might think that 'If I missed this one, just wait for next year's'.
After all that I've said, I hope that my opinions can be taken in as an opinion although I am nothing but a small pawn in their hands. However, when things get concerned about MONEY, I will get very serious and might rebel. That's all I want to say. Have a happy new year.
