Exploitation of daughter rights.

Nobody likes a preplanned schedule ruined by a last minute notice. Wait, it's more like a last second notice. He-llo! I have diligently planned my monday morning with a visit to Sunway College's library *Yes, I'd just sneak in a with my long overdue ID* to do a research for my Sociology term paper on Feminism. I need a not less than 2500 words report and how the fuck am I suppose to come out with that figure. Next in the afternoon from 12-3pm, I'll join my brother with his and/or our childhood friend who has just came back from the States in Redbox. I haven't been to Redbox for the past century and it was a die or take option. In the evening, I'd go for a swim and visit the house gym for some exercise.

See how healthy my day would be? I've planned it in such way which I know for sure that my grandmother, my mother or even my brother would nod their heads in approval. Yes, I need approval from my brother even! Fuucckkk But oh, that's another long winded grandmother story altogether.

So yesterday after the detailed planning, I happily finished my Marian Keyes and I slept at 3am. After 5 hours *It didn't sound too long did it? I haven't slept enough and I'm having a cough!* , my mother just barged her way into my clearly noted -DND- door, washed my curtain aside in such manner as though she's an artist *swoops* and my butt was reluctantly greeted by the merciless morning UV ray without any SPF protection. She shook me so hard as if I've been in Acey City during the tsunami earthquake. Fuucckkk

*Suyi...Suyi* And so she called..and she sounded as though she's calling for spirit! Oh malehHom malehHom, spirit of Christine thy shall come home! *Chills~!!* And fuck that rhymes.. After she has succeded in ruining my sleep, she further ruin my day! She just dropped it by saying:" Hurry up! Wash up and get ready, follow me to the office. I've loads of paperwork to be done and my new clerk is only coming in on 3rd June. You'll be staying till the night, I have a night meeting and you're coming along." Fuucckkk

She didn't even bother to ask if I have anything to do for the day. Even if she asked, I am still "legally" bound to comply to what she asked me to do according to the contract terms signed under the Law of Nature Role enforced by Lord Josephine aka the mother. But for Mary, Christ, Joseph's sake, can't you just blardy ASK ???? At least that'll make me feel respected! I was throwing a massive tantrum in my room after knowing that and I took it out on my pillows, bolster, my clothes when I was choosing what to wear and etc etc. Then I took it out on the Vios when she has asked me to drive it away from the gate. I made a turn around the garden and I stepped on it! Fuucckkk

Words came flooding into my head forming themselves into sentences expressing my anger and without second thoughts, I took my pen and notebook and my hand went non stop writing in the car. I didn't blurt a word to her along the journey to the office and I was scribbling on the book while she pass down her orders. *Do this...then pass it to HanMing, Do that and email it, Call this, Answer that.* Then she nags on the amount of time I spent in the washroom in the morning. Bitch, she just woke me up when she was all dressed and set while I still need to shower and ready. So much for her dictatorial rulling in the house. And oh, she didn't even give me time for breakfast. She's a mean employer and a cruel unreasonable mother. Fuucckkk

My inner voice is shrieking asking me to rebound!

"Christine, get a life! You never spoke back to your mother no matter how wrongful she is."

"Sorry but that's the value I was brought up with - To comply and to accept regardless how much I resent it."

"Look at you! You're 20, young and vibrant but you've only been to a club once. And mamak-ing was often missing in your dictionary but actively emerging in your mother's."

"I have enough of my friends telling me so and I'm so sick and annoyed hearing it because it makes me feel like a complete fool and NO I don't need it from you again. *Bang, hit myself on the head to get rid of the inner voice*"

..................................................................................................................... Good, pulse rate - zero. Fuucckkk

Confessions.

Loads of lingerie from La Senza.
2 pants, 3 belts, 1 bag from Guess.
One jeans from Guess Kids for Anna.

(iii) To Kill A Mocking Bird by Harper Lee
(iv) Angels and Demons by Dan Brown

Father, I am guilty and depressed. I've spent too much.

Now I'm feeling sick. Soarthroat and cough. I'm not sure if this is caused by that cookie or because I've sinned.

Father, I ate a plate full of rice during dinner just now when I was suppose to be on diet.

Father, I cursed again because I could not get exempted from ILC.

Father, I think that's all I can take for now. Hope I won't have to see you again.

Amen.

Determined!

I've gained 2 kgs!

I was 65kg few months back and it fell dramatically to 59kg for no reason..

I was worried about me having some sickness or some worms inside my stomach..

Now I'm at 61kg..

And I'm planning on a diet!

And I'm thinking of buying that shade I saw this afternoon..RM98. Blaardy cheap.. But hey it's nice! But shit..that means I'll have to get new contact lens. Urgh.. What the heck..I'll just get it anyway!

OOoooo HH.....so excited about tomorrow! But it's so not confirmed yet. Still waiting for Shahrul to get me that entry pass! Oh gosh I'm going to shop till my pants drop!...that's only IF I get the presale pass..

So will tell you people more about my spree if there is one by the way..

P/S: I'm suppose to be studying for my Sociology quiz tomorrow and I'm here submitting my blog entry and waiting for American Idol's finals repeat at 11:30pm. Half an hour to go! Uh..can't wait!

Oooo...

This morning when I opened my eyes, gosh it was 7:57am! I bounced up straight away. Damn, I've got a sociology class scheduled at 9am and I need to shampoo my hair as I was too lazy to do it the night before. LOL. I did everything in the fastest manner I could and don't worry I did make sure my hair was cleaned and all the shampoo were off! When I left house, it was 8:20am. Gosh I'm so late!

Thank goodness the traffic wasn't that bad. Along LDP it was quite smooth flowing except for it being slooow...and when I got along the cable bridge, traffic was even slower so we're actually at a bumper to bumper crawl.

Suddenly, in slow-mo, I saw this motorcylist smashed himself into the car infront. BANG! Oh gosh! oh gosh! Nervous shock! It was horrifying and it was just right beside my lane, right beside me! Goodness, I can even see how the car infront jerked and he braked and BANG and the bike fell and he fell. Gosh it was scary and I didn't recover until like 10 minutes later. And between that duration I was driving damn slowly. My heart was pumping real hard and fast as though I'm in love..like that fast dup-dup-dup-dup..Gosh..

So the journey to school was quite shaky as I couldn't put my foot to step on the accelerator pedal. How fortunately the U-turn at Taman Connaught wasn't that jam and I managed to reach USCI just on time at 9am. Sociology class was spent watching yet another movie. We've watched Mona Lisa Smile the previous class and this time round it was Music of The Heart. A great movie with strong message and touching acting. As usual, I cried a few times.. Can't help it, and not my fault! HAha..

ILC was boring as usual. Felt as though I'm back in elimentary school studying the most basic of all basic English. As many times I've tried to get exempted from ILC based on my General Paper in A levels, that blaardy stupid Ms. Adeline hasn't got anything done even though I've made it a point to go see her a couple of times giving her the syllabus she wanted. Yet she said it's not what she wants.

WTF is it that she wants? Goodness gracious! A levels is an external examination board and UCSI has their own School of Pre-u and A levels as well. I've gotten a copy of the syllabus I obtained from Sunway College and she rejected. I went online and printed the official syllabus from the examination board and it was so similiar to the previous one and so she rejected it again. I don't know what is it that she wants. She said she needs a detailed course outline. In my interpretation, she needs something to match A to A, and B to B. That's so ridiculous. Dead.

I was too damn pissed to deal with her anymore and so I went on to see the Vice President of Academic Affairs, Mr. Chin. I made sure I went on firm this time, and he promised that he will get down on serious discussion with Adeline and shall get back to me on Thursday morning. That's what I call business! These people need some lesson..

Gosh OB class was so boring I couldn't help falling asleep. Geez..and then I realized that I'm not the only one dozing off.. LOL. You see, the class is huge at about 100 of us and it was held in the auditorium. The seats were so so comfortable! and the lecturer was dead boring.. His lectures sounded like lullaby to me and eventually I dozed off again. AHAHHAAHHA..!!

It rained quite heavily earlier this evening hadn't it? I had to walk under the rain to get to my car and I forgot to wind my window so the cushion was soaked! I cursed so much, Oh God forbids!

So how'd you think of my day? I think it's quite boring except for that nervous shock. I can sue that woman for compensation!

Under Tort Law, Negligence, I could sue as a secondary victim for compensation as a result of witnessing a dreadful shocking accident. The immediate aftermath. Supporting case, McLoughlin v O'Brian (1982), Alcock v Chief Constable of Yorkshire (1992) and White and Others (1998).

I'm crazy today ~

LOL...

I'm writing for the sake of writing without knowing what to write because I realise I haven't been writing for many days now and I know I ought to continue writing even though I've nothing to write about so now when I'm writing in here, I'm just simply typing in whatever that I think it's nonsensical enough to be laughed at becase I've been laughing quite a lot today, not only today but the few days ago too! Laughing too much isn't a very good thing because people might think I'm crazy laughing alone in the car later when I'm driving just because I was thinking of something stupid. Oh now I got stucked because I've stopped for a few seconds to read what I've written and I don't know what to continue anymore. But nonetheless I'm still typing because that's what I wanted to do. And oh Anna is in excellent condition now and no further medication is required. I'm so happy even though we had to drive all the way to Ampang early in the morning and got caught in the traffic for more than 1 hour just to see the doctor for 15 minutes and got charged RM70 for it.

Now I'm stucked again because I've stopped and review what I've written for the second time. What else should I throw in here since this is the chance I can go crazy and start babbling without getting thrown cake on my face or a tight slap. Hmm, I realise I seriously have nothing much to write about for today. Actually that's not exactly true because there is something worth putting time to write about so basically I can conclude that I've been extremely lazy to blog these days due to reasons in which I myself am not sure of. Anyway, a glimpse of The Da Vinci Code next to me makes me want to say that " It's a Damn good Book ! And I'm HOOKED! " To clarify, I have not learnt this from Mr. T or whosoever. Okay, that's enough for 5 minutes of nonsense and actually typing it out. I think I'm going crazy. To be precise, I know I have GONE crazy. Tomorrow is the event and I have to be at the convention centre at 8:30am till midnight. Hope those bunch of old man and woman will cooperate and make the event a success. I hope too that they will stop telling me "Oh, you're very tall oh, how tall are you?" Because they say that almost every year when they see me. I hope too that they will stop asking me which department am I from because NO, I don't belong to the company!!

Phew~!

One last gift to unwrap before settling to serious business...

WAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKKAAK...those are serious nonsensical shit I've typed. For those who actually spend time reading through it, thanx a lot. I shall blog on something worth reading the next time round. So that's all for now..

Ta-da ~!

身 旁 的 朋 友 时 常 盘 问 我 为 何 到 如 今 还 能 如 此 和 睦 地 与 我 前 男 友 相 处？ 为 何 还 能 时 常 与 他 外 出？ 为 何 还 能 时 常 容 许 自 己 与 他 在 电 话 中 谈 心？ 难 道 我 不 会 记 忆 起 他 曾 经 所 带 给 我 的 痛 和 泪 吗？ 难 道 我 不 会 为 了 他 新 结 的 女 朋 友 而 伤 痛 吗？

这 种 种 问 题 我 从 来 都 找 不 到 一 个 绝 对 的 回 答。 只 有 一 点 我 是 不 曾 怀 疑 过 的， 那 就 是 我 们 拥 有 过 一 段 交 心 的 感 情， 而 这 段 情 感 一 直 留 存 到 至 今， 也 一 直 会 被 保 留 下 去。

与 他 共 度 的 两 年 里， 我 经 历 了 人 生 黑 暗 的 一 面。 日 子 充 满 了 压 力， 感 伤， 泪 水 以 及 那 失 去 至 亲 人 的 痛 苦。 那 一 切 的 经 历 是 他 人 无 法 所 能 理 解 或 感 受 得 到 的。 他 一 路 陪 我 走 来， 陪 着 我 与 我 父 亲 打 了 一 场 维 持 六 年 的 抗 癌 战 争。 那 痛， 那 苦， 那 优。。。 没 人 比 他 更 清 楚 明 白。

他 了 解 我 的 程 度 就 像 我 心 中 的 另 一 道 声 音： 我 不 需 苦 苦 寻 找 适 当 的 时 间 或 地 点， 甚 至 是 词 句 来 表 达 我 心 中 想 说 的。 我 相 信 这 是 我 以 后 的 伴 侣 无 法 办 得 到 的。 若 非 是 他 亲 眼 看 见 我 痛 哭 的 样 子， 试 问 谁 又 能 谅 解 我 心 中 的 痛？ 若 非 是 他 扶 持 我 站 在 我 父 亲 的 棺 木 旁， 谁 能 体 会 那 亲 情 离 别 的 心 酸？

如 此 亲 密 的 谅 解 根 本 无 法 所 被 代 替 的。 即 使 他 曾 经 一 而 再, 再 而 三 地 伤 害 我 ， 我 依 然 向 上 帝 感 恩。 感 谢 神 冥 冥 中 的 安 排 让 他 出 现 在 我 的 生 命 里。 虽 然 我 曾 埋 怨 他， 讨 厌 他。。 但 从 他 的 身 上， 我 学 会 了 坚 强。 现 在 的 他， 找 到 了 他 自 己 的 快 乐， 而 我 也 因 为 他 快 乐 而 欢 喜。 我 们 俩 一 路 走 过 的 心 酸 不 容 易， 我 们 清 楚 知 道。 他 在 我 心 中 的 份 量， 从 以 往 到 未 来 都 不 会 改 变。

People often ask why am I still so close to my ex? Why can I still hang out with him? Why am I constantly on the phone with him? Wouldn't it hurt knowing that he's happily with a new gf? Wouldn't it hurt to be reminded of all the pain and tears he has brought?

I do not know the definite answers to all these questions. All I know is that he and I shared a special bond before in our 2 years relationship and we still do now as close friends and we shall in the future.

Those 2 years with him was the stage of life when I have had to go through depression, pain, tears and the departure of my beloved dad. Those details could never be able to be explained and to be felt by others. Nobody could know more clearly and more precisely what I have been through. He's been there and he held my hands through the toughest days of my life watching my dad struggle with cancer for 6 remarkable years. All those pains, tears and family matters..Nobody knows it better than him.

Even up to these days, I only need to mention something and he will understand everything I need to say. I believe this would never happen with my future companion. Even if I do explain and tell them the whole story, how would they know if they've never seen me crying my eyes out? How would he understand how I felt when he's not the one holding me tight standing beside my dad's coffin?

Such closeness and mutual understanding could never be able to be learnt and trade for. Although he did hurt me, not once, but twice. I used to blame him for doing that to me, for all the promises he has made. But what didn't kill me makes me stronger and indeed, he has helped in making me a tougher person I am now, though through the hard way.

I've learnt a lot from him and I'm so happy to know that he has found someone for himself. All these came by the hard way and we both know it. I'm grateful and I thank the Lord for his presence and I still love him dearly for who he has been and for who he is now.

Julia.

Just got home and had my shower. Now I smell like a freshly peeled orange thanks to Shokubutsu orange peel essence. Boy it was a busy day! As usual it started as a daily routine to send Grace to school at 6:30am.

When I got home, I thought I'd be able to catch some more sleep since I don't have class on Monday! When I walked pass mom's room, the thought of Anna sleeping so soundly in there makes me wanna step in and just "disturb" her. So I jumped on mom's bed and snuggled close with Anna, snatched her bolster and her blanket, purposely waking her. Lol..I'm a bad sister. But she happily joined in. Must be my lucky day because normally she'd just mumble a few words and hit me with the bolster. Now you know how often I "disturb" her...HAHA!

There mom was applying her facial cream and eye cream. Suddenly she turned and asked, "Suyi, come follow me to office."

*And Su Yi is my chinese name. Very common I know.*

Hurr...so much so I didn't want to because whenever she says that, it meant from day to night. In the end, I was obliged to follow, as always. I wore a black fitting top with a light pink skirt in order to match my new salmon pink shoe! (Yeap, bought new shoe! lol..) and I was happy the whole day through. Guess it's true when they say pink makes you happy. But I'm sure my shoe play a big part too!

Half the day was spent in the office, spending too much time "flirting" with macho Mr. Photocopier, petite Mr. Facsimile and not to forget getting close in touch with Mr. Ring-ring.

We left the office in late afternoon making our way to Desa Sri Hartamas to hunt for a dress for mom for the purpose of an Award Presentation. I bought a white skirt for myself and it was only RM27 after 70% off. Wow! Can't resist myself..haha! Mom ended up buying a sweet-formal dress from Ecesis. But damn it cost a bomb! 700 bucks for that Grade A Thai-silk. Anyhow, mom look darn good in it.

After that we stopped by a cafe for coffee and I ordered my usual Latte. There's this cute little girl in the cafe walking around, handing us the menu and actually recommending us what to take! Finally when mom's colleague ordered some bread-looking pie, she said she didn't like the raisins in it, she only likes the bread. LOL..cute.

I spent the rest of my time in the cafe playing and talking to this cute little gal whose name is Julia but she'd address herself as Ashlee, and a second later, she's Alicia. HAHAHA....She's only 4 years old and she's talkative..had fun talking to her. We even played jigsaw puzzle..haha! When we leave the cafe, she was waving her hand so vigorously and she smiled at me, "Bye Christine." Her smile made my day!

Then we went off for Bak Kut Teh for dinner before we go home. Yum!

Gilos~

HAHAHAHAAHAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHA.... AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA.... WAHAHAHAHAHAhhHAhaHAhAHHAHAhahHAaahHaha WAhAHHaHHAHAhHAHAhHAHahHAHAhAhHAHahhahah...
Nothing..Just feel like laughing out REAL hard..

Oh by the way, don't be mistaken that my day must have gone too well..
In fact, it was the total opposite. But I'd still give it a good laugh..
Because I feel so stupid..LOL.

Drove all the way down to Cheras for a Saturday morning class on Basic Photography and it was cancelled. I was late because I spend slightly longer than necessary time trying to get the hell outta Crimson room and though in the end I'm still stuck with the safe's code. Sigh..

120 all the way through the highway this time and since it was a pleasant Saturday morning, it wasn't difficult for me to get a parking. I rushed towards the class and on my way, I saw Pik-svonn who said, "Go home Chris, class is fucking cancelled.."

Couldn't believe my ears I went to the class and to find this note stating that "Class on Basic Photography scheduled tomorrow will be cancelled." Strange I never saw this note on Friday. Bet they must have put it on this morning. Suckers!

So it all end up so stupidly stupid! And I'm that stupid idiot..HAHAHA...

The rest of the day was spent trying to get out of "rooms" and safely putting peoply to the other end of the riverbank, if you know what I'm saying..lol.. and having an afternoon nap only to be awaken by an unexpected call. I still went back to dreamland after the call anyway. When I opened my eyes again, it was dinner time. I'm so lucky!

AHHAhHaHahahHAhaHAhHa....

That's all for now, time to sleep again. Church tomorrow. Wonder if he's there? That pianist. Seriously talented. Always enjoyed myself looking at him play.

Right, goodnight!

Happy..

Yeap..I am happy. Happy is what I'm feeling now. I am feeling happy. Happy I am feeling. I feeling happy. Happy feeling I.
HAhHAHAHHAhHAHAhhahHAHAhaha....

I've been driving all day since 6:30am till 11pm when I just got home an hour ago. Left house early in the morning to send grace to school then go straight to Cheras. After class drove to Taman Megah Ming Tien cafe to meet up with ex and his friend. Had orange juice. Then went on for a field trip organized by School of Social Science and Liberal Arts (SSLA) to 8TV in Bandar Utama.

Get up close with hosts and see what do the studios actually look like.
Eve's Diary's studio is nice and the host is pretty.
8TV Quickie is in the Mini Studio, which is seriously very mini.
Watch how editing was done.
Make-up and wardrobe room.
Etc.

Then drove all the way down to KL, ING headquater at Jalan Raja Chulan at 5pm for the rehearsal and to collect my evening dress. This is what I'm happy about. Why? Because I drove all the way to KL, alone. For the first time ever. Alone! Woo hoo! And then! I drove back to Cheras to pick up my brother from his gf's hostel. Without getting lost. HAHA! I'm so happy!

My mom always say, if one can drive down to KL and not have any problem, her driving skills are considerably good. HA! So I drove down to KL, Alone, during peak hours, not having any problems..I'm good! I passed...HAHAHAH!!

Happy..

I sound so stupid..

I bet I look stupid too..

But... I'm still happy..

WAhahahahaHAhahAHhaahHAhAHhaa.......

Once is stupid, Twice is Dumbass!

How could I ever let this happen?!?!

Fuck! Wednesday, like what I've said, it's only OB tutorial class at 11:30-1:00pm. Since the lecturer has made it clear yesterday that he'll be having the class and to remind us to turn up, I went.

This morning I had to wake up at 6:30 to send grace and then back home, not doing anything. I didn't go back to sleep either because I worried I won't be able to get up again. Before going to UCSI, I thought I'd just drop by Sunway University College to get the syllabus for General Paper which I did during A levels in order to get exempted from ILC (Interactive Literacy Communication).

I went all around the campus looking for Mrs. Poh who taught me GP. Finally found her in room G11. And oh she didn't have the syllabus list with her. So I followed her back to her room, waited for her to locate that sheet of paper among all other piles. She took quite a bit of time to finally got something which she thinks should be appropriate. Meaning, it's not that actual syllabus yet. Time was at 11:25am. Oh gosh oh gosh I'll be late!

Slowly, she gets up and said, "Come, let me photocopy it for you downstairs".

Owhh......Right. Fine.

Waited and waited...finally she handed me that paper. I was about to zoom out of the campus then she suddenly ask, "Have you got my number?"

"Err...no." So there goes a few minutes getting my handphone out and to store her number. Urgh!

It was already 11:35 when I finally get back to my car! I go 110 all the way from Sunway to Cheras..phew! Paid the 2 bucks, lucky to get a parking space and then ran up the stairs! Oh gosh I thought, it was almost 12 noon when I reached the classroom. I'm so late..

"Hey Chris, class cancel la..."

wtf....!! DA-AMN!!
It happened last week and I called myself stupid.
It happen again today and I shall then label myself dumbass!
Like how my friend say, once is "Sor Poh"..Twice is "Sohai" ....

That Blaaaaaaaaardy lecturer!!

SunMed

Brought Anna to the hospital this morning to check her lungs. Her coughing has never been better even after all those medication taken from the ENT specialist. Mom got worried because grandma got too worried.
Sunway Medical Centre, Level 2. Boy it's crowded! All the mom-to-be and daddy-to-be flooded the whole registration area. Paediatrician sure do earn a hell lotsa money! That probably explains the black Porsche Carrera I've seen just now at the Doctor's parking area. Nice car, really

We waited long enough before we get to see Dr. Lim. Cheerful, petite and soft spoken. Then I got a phone call from my brother to meet him downstairs, right away. Sounded like some CEO. Ish~ So I missed whatever the doctor said. But when I got up to his room again, I saw my mom coming out with an obviously too-red-to-be-normal eye. She must have cried again. Sigh, she's too worried over the fact that when she was pregnant with Anna, my dad was already diagnosed with Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma. Simple english, nose cancer. So she's worried that the cancerous cells would genetically inherited to Anna, which is infact possible.

I thought we're off to go home. Instead, my mom shocked me by saying we're going down to the Radiology Centre. *Gasp* All the flashbacks..Dad used to come here for CT scans and MRI. The doctor has advised that Anna do an X-ray to confirm the possibility of pneumonia. The process of it only take a few seconds. Thank God the report came out to be negative. Heart is not enlarged, lungs are clear. Phew. And that few seconds are worth RM43. Took the film back up to Level 2 for Dr. Lim's consultation. So now Anna will be treated under mild asthma. Back to antibiotic, steroid tablets and inhaler. All those came up to a total of RM163.10.

That doctor better be good.

Signs..

10 Signs you should not hook up with him.

1. He pauses your make-out session to grab a video camera and tripod from his closet so he can "capture your love". Strange, you only agreed to coffee.

2. The dude has highlights in his hair....Down there.

3. Hottie on the prowl has singled you out at the party and is now getting awfully flirty. Unfortunately, you're at a family reunion. (Is a second cousin really kin?)

4. When you ask if he has protection, Mr. Clueless rolls his eyes and says, "What? You don't think I'm clean?".

5. On the way up to your apartment, he gets all misty-eyed and chokes. "I've been saving myself for this moment my whole life."

6. You're at a wedding. He's the groom.

7. He's sexy, sweet and totally seductive. And coincidently, a painful flashback just reminded you that he's the ex who turned you into emotional roadkill six months ago.

8. It took 5 tequila shots for you to finally find prospect at the bar hot. Funny how chemistry works....Not!

9. The black smudges on your face after necking with him aren't from your mascara - You're not wearing any. Which means he must be!

10. Your date admitted that while he is looking for a relationship, he'd rather "just have sex with you".

Ain't it beautiful!

Wahahahahahaha...Just finished a few sessions of Gunbound with my former classmate, and I won. It's been long since I last play and I thought I've lost touch of it. See how easily I get happy..sigh. Not good. But I'm still happy..Ahaha. Can't stop laughing. Oh, not really laughing, just smilling. Grinning perhaps. LOL. Blimey.
Alright, so that was just now. Few minutes ago.

How about my day. It was good. Despite the fact of me having to wake up at 7:30am on a Saturday morning to go for class. Even though I long to stay in bed! - My soft and comfy, however unfortunately, single size bed. It was drizzling in the morning and it was the perfect weather to just laze around. Yea, so I was just dreaming aite.

Back to earth, it was so difficult to get myself out of bed. When I said difficult, I seriously do mean it. Cut the details, I'm just plain lazy now. By 8:00am, I was ready. Grace wasn't. I went off to bank to deposit my April paycheck from Guess, yes I've finally got it. So after getting everything done, I went home to pick up Grace. The jam smells yummy today - the traffic was smooth. But of course, how wouldn't it be. A Saturday morning. Everyone would still be in their dreamlands, except me! ME!

Though the traffic along Federal Highway didn't piss me off, some chibai drivers in Cheras area did. Probably some of you people would know about drivers in Cheras. One word, mad. Enough said. But it didn't affect me long because I get to do yet another satisfactory reverse parking at UCSI. LOL! Hey, I know it's no big deal, but to me it is. Very big deal instead. You know, I used to get so amazed by how my girlfriends get to reverse park their car so fast, accurately and perfectly? I've done it thrice now, no complaints. More to come! Yey.

Basic Photography, 9:30-12:30, Room CG08.

Great! I've parked my car just right in front of the block and the classroom is just right there! There..ground floor. I sat and waited. Checked, 9:15am. I'm still the only one in the class. Worried of similiar situation like the Organizational Behaviour tutorial class on Wednesday, I went off to double confirm my schedule. Right, Mr. Simon Tan. Class should be on.

Slowly by 9:30am, fellow classmates arrived. Relieved. Hey, it's all ladies! Cool~

"Good morning ladies."

Head turned. Whoa..he's tall. Blue fitting shirt, black slack and a nice tie. So he's holding a Nikon camera bag, a Dell laptop case and Jusco plastic bag. Why Jusco? Hmm... That's Mr. Simon Tan. He speaks perfect English, a plus point. I'm starting to like him already. Period.

Again, ice-breaking session. So he kicked off the class by introducing himself. A lecturer in LimKokWing, previously in KBU. Once working in the production industry, shifted to advertising, went off with his own company, and was once with The Star newspaper. Interesting. Then it was our turn.

Introduction to history and basic of photgraphy was very interesting. I liked it a lot. Now I know a lot more about my camera. Not really mine, my brother's to be precise. A Canon EOS 300 and EOS 3. He mentioned about shutter speed and aperture, negative and positive films, techniques of developing the films, brands of camera, lens and filters etc.

Assignment, to hand in 4 pictures in 10R on week 6. Covering usage of Shutter Speed of 30Seconds, and 1/1000s, 1/2000s, 1/4000s or whichever is highest in the camera in use. Next is usage of the smallest aperture and then the highest aperture. I've checked, so the EOS 3 could go to 1/8000s of shutter speed, great. Aperture, yet to find out. My classmates now would have to consider buying a camera. But Mr. Simon offered give a good deal. Nikon F55, body and lens, with the camera bag including tripod and a blower at just RM850. Not bad.

Time flies. 12:30 noon, I'm off to pick up Grace from CHS (Catholic High School), my former High School too. Before that, I bought Mc'Chicken Medium set from the drive through and enjoyed the fries in the car. Shh, David would kill me if he ever finds out that I eat in the car. When I got home, I realised grandma actually left lunch for me. So I ate again. Hurr..gaining weight.

Oh gosh, I've written so much! But I've still got the buffet dinner at Atrium Cafe, Sunway Pyramid Tower to write about.

The dinner:-

*Was good.
*Not too expensive.
*Lotsa oysters, crabs and prawns. (I didn't take any of them, they look not so fresh. David had loads! And his cholesterol level is 7!)
*Very crowded.
*I was very full! So full that I wanted to not blog for the day.

After dinner:-

*Walked around in Pyramid.
*Mom did her usual shopping in British India.
*I bought something cute. Like it.
*Grandma and Anna went off alone to Bata.
*They both went missing after that. Got us all so worried. In the end, they were happily sitting at the hotel. Ish!

1:38am, Sunday, I'm off.

Latte at 8 ?

So yesterday's Starbucks session wasn't that bad. At least everyone got everyone's attention since it's only all 5 of us.

Mob aka Chris, you sure do look different with your hair so much longer. And you're a funny guy! LOL. Sampan, you're still rowing your boat. All the same since the last time I met you. Hang in there, just a month before you're off the education stage. Cossie, nice to finally meet you in person. I seriously want to know how would a person who ask weird questions look like. LOL.

Was suppose to meet Andy from Latte@8 through Mei but HA! that woman..couldn't remember it was done for this season's. Aw, had Choc Frappucino with whip cream there. Go on grande! Miss their Espresso Rhumba Frappucino. Coffeeeeee addiction.

So we were there for 2 hours. Talked a lot, laughed a lot. Got stony once in a while. Hey it's Starbucks. HAHA.

Pork? Lelong..Chiiiicken! Auntie Auntie...

Slept at 2:30 last night, sniff. But my ignorant sister, Grace still wake me up to send her to school, at 6:45am. It was much later than the normal time so I took the LDP route and U-turn, instead of waiting in line at the normal traffic lights. Grace made it to school on time. Yey!
After that, have to follow grandma to wet market in Taman Megah. Hur hur..I haven't brush my teeth. Hehe! So I just took one mouthful of water from this bottle I found in the car, gargle, and spit it out ungracefully into the drain. God knows how long has the bottle been there? I don't care. I have more bacterias in my mouth than those contained in the water I reckon. Wahaha!

Grandma gave me some cash, "Go buy breakfast for everyone at home."

*Shrug* Okay ~

Walk walk..passed by stalls selling chiiiiiiicken! *bok bok bok* Disgusting looking pork covered with flies. Fishy fishes. (There're so many different fishes but when I eat them, they all look the same. I need tuition!) LOL..

Speaking of tuition, all parents seems to be so fond of that idea. Even kindies go tuition. Hell! I thought they're suppose to be just playing seesaw, swing and have fun in kindergarten! Some parents just like the idea of putting their children in a place where they think they'll be safe. Since when the house is no longer safe for kids to live in? I see there's so many of those stuffs selling in DIY stores when it always say, child care, child safety etc etc. And hey it's not cheap either. Parents..

Anyway, back to fishes.. Yeah, they all stinks. Thank godness UCSI lift never smells that way. LOL. Okay, so I found this stall which sells kuih-muih. Forgot what kuih-muih is called in English. Bought kuih lapis and some pinkish rounded kuih, don't know what's the name, for Anna. She loves them. Bought some "bombs" for David, my brother. We call it bombs. It's actually this kuih with peanuts and sugar inside, and there's flour (Pronounced as "flawr") outside. I don't know what's all their names in English. Sorry. It's not in the dictionary as well. Not in my Encarta Dictionary. Not in the online encyclopedia too. *Ahem-ahem, addressing to "someone"*

Walked over to this mamak stall opposite to buy some nasi lemak. There's so many of them. All different names,Makcik this and Makcik that. But it's all nasi lemak biasa. I asked the boss, mana sedap? Brrr...he answered, "Semua bagus." Doh..! Ended up buying that one which has the finest looking packaging to me. Keke..

Searched for my grandmother. Oh, buying chiiiiiiicken..damn expensive! RM67 for...let me think. 4 of them? The lady even need me to calculate the total for her. Eh! After that is poooooork! I was standing near this pork stall earlier watching this lady waving her "zhu yok dou" up and down onto the park, wala..damn strong. Reminds me of that Stephen Chow's movie way back then where he fought for his country with his "zhu yok dou" (Pork knife). Stupid and funny..haha!

And so I thought my grandma is going to buy from this lady but instead she walked pass and stopped at another pork stall. Chey..2 old uncles, the knife small small, no action at all. No fun. But fuck, damn freakin' expensive! RM60+ for pork..whoa~! But heh, who gets to eat it? Me! So..it's awwright..

Ho Ho..sky was so dark. I rushed my grandmother to hurry before "Raindrops keep falling on my head..." *By B.J Thomas* So it was just a short trip to the market and we've all spent approximately RM150 in total. Quite a bit I thought.

Traffic jam..This is the one jam I never find it delicious. Sigh..

Oh ~ An accident..hulala..This lady's Proton back bumper all gone! Almost dragging on the road. Another car further up,a guy's. The bonnet also gone case. I don't know if I should say this, but I guess it's the lady's fault. LOL. So I was driving at about 30-40 along LDP. It wasn't that bad because I got to lay my eyes on nice car. Audi TT. Red. Fucking gorgeous! Look at those rims~! Tried to check out the driver. Woo...good looking guy in his early 40s' I bet. Damn! Great wheels and good looks. I was almost at the state of staring at him..haha! and his car of course. What were you thinking? Damn.

Righto, that's all about the morning.

And oh, the nasi lemak was not too bad.

Giga, don't "nau kai" la..lol..

Junks

Feeling happy. Just came back from Sunway Pyramid. Got myself an optical frame after thinking of it for so long. I like it a lot. Thanx Mei aka Karen for helping me in choosing, out of all the collections. Now I look like some "guai guai lui" Wahahaha! That's why the saying is true. Looks are deceiving. You may not see what you see. I like that. LOL.. But actually I wanted those plastic frame. Mei said I look like some witch. Bitch. And she said is "la-la". Seafood. Burp. Full.

Got to meet up with my ex. After so long. Wahaha! Brr..He looks good. He has this glow on his face and this aura around. Must be having a good time with his gf. That's what relationship can do to a person.

Hmm, I want a bf too! LOL.. I'm a bitch. Damn.

Sigh..It's so depressing to want so many stuffs but money never seem to be enough.

I want :-

*This dark brown flare skirt with ribbon details around the waist from Miss Selfridge. I love it! Makes me look so girlish..LOL.
*Another skirt from Selfridge. In white. White's this season's black! Must-have. Very girlish looking too. Sweet.
*This green-blue linen top from MNG.
*White linen pants from MNG ask well. Very thin, sexy!
*A digital camera!
*My 7270!
*A new pair of jeans! Tried on Levi's. Make me look so fat! When I already am. Ish..No good.
*A pair of slipper. LOL.
*Etc..etc.

Sigh..I seriously need to start categorizing these items into "Wants" and "Needs".

Now let me see.

Sigh..After all, I guess it's only the handphone and digicam that falls into the "Needs" category. But....But...I....Sigh.

Dinner time.

Oh did I mention? Went out to move the car just now and realised there's something new in the car. Ambipur..WAHAH! My brother bought it. Must be because I've paid half for the hard disk and bought a new A-drive. I'm not being a bitch here although I normally am, but seriously, he never! Never..have I emphasized enough? NEVER! Willingly buy something, anything! for me. Speaking of presents..Never got them.

Off for dinner. Taz.

Class..

9:41, just woke up.

Fuck man, only one class today.
Organizational Behavior at 11am.
Sigh.. Will finish at 1pm. Then drive home again.
Like I'm fucking rich for all the petrol..stupid timetable.

Cabut..shower first. Come back then edit the blog again.
Lazy to write in proper sentence. Alala..

.........................................................................................................

1:15pm. Reached home at 12 noon just now.
Mood has changed from sleepy this morning to angry now.
Burning with flame!

Mind me. @!##$@&^$%!#%*&@$%@

I drove all the way from Sunway to Cheras just for one class. I paid the tol, 2 bucks for the parking, waited for half an hour outside the class..ONLY to find out that there won't be any OB tutorial class today because it's the first week of the semester. That's not all!

While I was waiting outside the class, I saw a few students who were also waiting. So I went up to confirm my classroom. HA! They're having Office Application (OA) at the same classroom. I was thinking..."diu lo..." I thought I copied the timetable wrongly, so I went 2 floors down, by foot, you know about the lift. No hope. Went searching for School of Management to double confirm the timetable.

Checked. Nothing wrong. OB, C202. Might as well just check OA together. Maleh...OA, C202. Deng..

Asked for help from this lady in School of Management, she said she's not in charge of the programming. She then pointed her finger towards this room, all crowded inside. There's a guy in blue shirt on the phone, I reckon he's the one I would be meeting. Oh wait, not just one phone, he's holding two holders. Whoa, busy man, I thought. Then there's another 4 more guys. One with overly bleached hair. One I can almost see his butt from the hole on his jeans. Wonder who the hell would actually cut it there? And 2 other more decent looking guys sitting.

I stood outside his room. Waited. And waited...

He then looked up, with his hand waving, as though to ask me to come in. So I went in.

I then tell him my problem. He interrupted, "Why don't you let this guy here help you. I'll sort these fellas here first since they've been waiting for quite some time."

Reasonable. Fine.

So I asked this decent looking guy sitting, "You're to be having OB now aren't you?"

"Yea, I am, but see the timetable, cacat wor..I checked liao, OA also same classroom."

"Excuse me Sir, he doesn't seem to be able to solve my problem either."

"Oh? Let me see...Oh yea..This I must seriously look into. Come, you follow me"

Walked behind him.. Gosh..

What is he? Gay?
What a guy would wear such tight pants? And the way he walk. Swaying his butt from left to right.. Not to mention how tight that pants is! The way the fabric cup his butt.. Brrr... *Shiver*

Reached the notice board. He placed his finger on his lips, and rest his elbow on the other hand. I pointed at OB, and then at OA.

"OH..you're right..you're right."

"Wait..Oh! it's tutorial class..There won't be any tutorial class during the first week of a new semester. Aren't there any notices?"

"Errr...I don't think so."

"Sigh. You see. That's the problem. They always think that this is a minor problem so they never really bother to do anything about it. See, because it's only for the first week of a new semester, and there's only 3 semesters a year. That's why. I'm so sorry about that. Why don't you just hang around the library and meet new friends?"

"Hmm..I don't think so. I'll just drive home."

"Ok then. I'll see you around. Ciaoz."

Ciaoz? Wtf?!? Ciaoz? Brrr...

So I drove home..Feeling fukstrated! Traffic made it even worse! Fuck.

Unexpected

I know..

It's only 2:59pm and I'm already sleepy. I guess I've been sleepy the whole morning. Who wouldn't be if you slept at 1am and woke up at 5am?? My life is seriously going on roller coaster. It's all upside down, and inside out. LOL..

When I'm sleepy, there's 2 extremely different mood I'd go through. It's either I'll be damn pissed and people would probably think I'm having my menstrual, which I actually am; or I'll be damn hyped and active. I guess it's the latter, at least for now. Mood swings, watch it.

Why would I ever need to wake up at 5am?! Sigh..

That's because it's the first day of class, and I have to send my sis at 6:30am and then go straight down to UCSI, Cheras. So now I have to shower, shampoo my hair, scrub my feet, think of which outfit to wear, get changed, blow-dry my hair, style it, speed up my face's aging process by putting on makeup and get Grace to hurry. But no NO...it didn't take me 1 1/2 hour to do all this even though I said I woke up at 5am.

See, at 5am, my alarm goes off. Which normally I'd fall back to sleep.
5:05am - Second alarm. Switched off.
5:10am - Third alarm. Switched off.
5:15am - Forth alarm. Switched off.
..
..
5:30am - Last call. Slowly, unwillingly drag myself to sit still on the bed.
5:45am - Get out of bed to washroom. From there it starts ticking. LOL.

My first class, Sociology is at 9am. I reached at 7:45am. Fuck. Nothing to do there, sat at the lobby and read newspaper. Hard to resist myself from dozing off.

Finally..FINALLY!! 8:55am.. I walk towards Block C, where School of Social Science and Liberal Arts is located. Stupid they never link all the buildings. Sunway College did. Waited for the lift. It took forever. And still it stinks! Checked my timetable. Sociology class C206.

Second floor - Ding!

"C201..C202..C203..walking round and round that floor..C207 (Thinking, great found the class, it should be next door)..walked down further, fuck, C208..walked further..C210. WTF! walk further..C205..HA! it better be here..C206. Praise the Lord, Hallelujah.

Sat and waited. Lecturer, Mr. Ken Choong.

"Excuse me, is this Ken Choong's Sociology?", asked this witch looking girl with dark blue and green streaks, dark eyeshadow (not fully over her lid, just at the top, weird), too much blusher, black&white polka dots top with cream coloured knit cropped cardigan over and vertical stripes 3-quater pants, and sandals. Seriously, weird combination.

*Nod..Nod..*

9:10am, Mr. Ken arrived. He must have been drinking too much the day before. He looks dead! He's in need of eye gel to get rid of those dark circles. Even panda's don't look that dark. Nah, joking. I'm just exaggerating. He gave out papers and the attendance list.

-Course description.
-Course Objective.
-Instructional methods.
-Etc..etc..

Then he starts..reading! Seriously, reading, word, by, word from the paper he gave it out. Whoa~ I thought this class is going to be god damned boring. But turned out..I was wrong! lol..It was quite interesting because we're debating on issues in relating to religion, social problems, prostituition, sex crimes etc. That witch (didn't get her name) was asking so many questions but it seems to me that she has difficulty in putting her questions in words because she kept contradicting herself and stopping once in a while in search for proper adjective. But nevertheless, it was interesting.

11:30am, Interactive Literacy Communication. Class C204. This time round I didn't have problem locating the room.

Don't you just hate Ice breaking session?? Damn!

We had to go out in groups and then introduce ourselves, revealing informations on our Major, hometown, interest, age and even availability status.

Thesis..topic sentence..supporting details..Shit. All these sounds too damn familiar, but of course, I've done all these in General Paper during A levels. I wonder if I can ever get exempted? Will talk to Ms. Adeline of English Department. I hope I'll get the exemption.

After that, it's home.

Shit, reservation in Atrium Cafe, Sunway Pyramid Hotel. Will call. Remember!

And oh, did I mentioned I saw Anna? She's full of craps. And she's the only person I can speak foul language with and not scare them away. Imagine that.

Jots.

Just got home from dinner.

Lazy.

Today, I -

*Woke up too late, missed breakfast with Dru.
*Went Midvalley with Mom and Anna. Drop both of them at the exhibition centre for the Windows On Holland fair.
*Went over to Dome for coffee with Dru and Su-Zhen.
*After coffee, went back to Dru's room to pick up her stuffs. Messy as I thought.
*Had too much Pringles while waiting for Dru to check out.
*Lotsa Hugs and Kisses sending Dru off from the hotel. Will try my very best to see her again in Kuching in July, Rainforest.
*Brought Anna around the Windows on Holland fair. Had fun watching the process of making the famous Holland clogs.
*Bought flowers imported from Holland. Smells good.
*Tried Holland waffles, bun etc. Yum.
*Watch Anna milk the cow. Not a real cow. Not real milk either.
*Went to pyramid to clear some matters with Guess. Hope to get my April paycheck asap. *Company my brother to buy a 120GB/8MB buffer hard disk. Will have to share the cost of it. *Slept again before going to dinner.
*Sat and resist myself from scratching my hand. Itchy and painful. Damn sunburn.

Tomorrow, I -

*Will start class in UCSI. First class at 9:30am, Sociology. Nervous. Looking forward to meeting Anna again, and making new friends.
*Will have to send Grace to school at 6:30am.
*Will get to drive myself in Waja. Grandma got a new Vios.
*Hope to be able to get up in time.
*Will make reservation in Atrium Cafe for buffet dinner on Mother's Day.

Now, I -

*'m done with the blog.
*GB.

Cast Away - Day 2

01-05-2005

7:15 am, heavy knock on the door. Through the spyhole, HA! it's Anna. I can only see her head, so short. Lol.. *Yawn*

Mom said we should get ready quick if we don't want to miss the local morning market. I thought, "Huh? Market all the way here in Raub?" But anyhow, I put on my contacts and wash up as fast as I could. I must from now onwards remind myself to put on my contacts before brushing my teeth. The toothpaste hurt my eye! Even thought I've washed it as thoroughly as I can.

Still sleepy, I dragged my heavy body down 3 flights of stairs and we're off to the market. It's not even 8 am and it's all crowded everywhere. There's this section where they sell local vegetables and fruits (V&F) planted by local residents in their orchard, and the other section are V&F from Cameron Highlands. V&F are exceptionally! extraordinarily! cheap there! To my grandmother, it's like heaven!! She went around "shopping" for V&F and I had bags and more bags hanging onto my poor little fingers.

Lunch was tough. First, we had to go through the process of looking for a cafe. Or any place where they serve food. But it's Sunday, everywhere is closed from what I can see. Finally, we found this mamak looking, open air type of place. Can't really call it a cafe.

We ordered Black soya, new for me, but nice too. Then I went off to order Char Kuey Teow (No egg) for Anna, Yun Yong for me and Laksa for Mom and Grandma. I asked the lady if they have Yun Yong because it wasn't indicated on the board. She then have to ask her son, the chef. But the chef was so agitated, he just make some real high pitched noise. The chef looked retarded to me. The lady then said to me," I don't know, depends on the liking of him - Pointing towards the chef."

*Total Speechless*

But in the end, Yun Yong did appear in front of me. Even though it didn't taste nice, I still ate them all. Since the chef willingly cook it for me. Sigh.

After lunch is another ...... to be continue After bro's GB session, don't know when will that be.

.............journey through rocky, bumpy, muddy and narrow road into mom's ex-colleague's orchard. The only thing different this time is that the road's condition is even worse than the one to the waterfall. Along the way, we really have to avoid those cocoa trees planted a wee bit too near by some other orchard owners.

Mom's ex-colleague's orchard.

Clean and tidy. There's a small little hut for the indon worker to sleep in. Then we went on by foot in search for durians. It was right in the afternoon and the sun was shinning mercilessly on us. Phew. After much of the walking, we were lucky to find a few durians on the ground. Uncle said we're really lucky because now isn't the season. There we also get to see durian flowers and tiny durians yet to grow. The process. It was really an experience.

Then we went back down to the hut. So unfortunately, those durians are not riped enough to be eaten. Uncle said that's most probably because of the weather. It hasn't rain in days!! Sigh..all the effort wasted. We stayed for a few more minutes before we start on our journey back to the house. Feeling tired and disappointed.

Back to the house..Sunburn. Ouch...All reddish, like a roasted pig. Hehaeheahehae..

After shower, we got back to the hotel, checked out and then go home. Another 2 hours journey back to civilization. Can't help it but I dozed off.

ZzzZzZzzzZz...

Cast Away - Day 1

30-04-2005

Early departure to Raub, Pahang to visit mom's high school mate and ex colleague.

In the car there's grandma, Anna, mom and me. The journey took about 2 hours. Pity my butt..aching like madness. Sigh..Pass the tunnel after Genting exit, we waited for mom's ex-colleague to guide us to his house.

First stop, we had lunch at a restaurant nearby the house. Tried a few local delicacies. Namely, Bitter gourd with salted egg. Don't know how that tasted like because I never liked bitter gourd. But my mom said it was yummy. Fry pork. Not the usual pork, but the wild pig. Can't tell the difference though. But nonetheless, it was tasty.

Next we stopped by at the house. Along the way we saw cocoa seeds everywhere being laid out to get dried. Smells like garbage..But they can actually sell it for RM5.50/kg. Good price..

After some chitchat in the house, we hop onto an ancient looking but powerful 4WD Jeep. It basically look like those vehicle where they use to transport prisoners. Like a cage. But definitely not as comfortable. There's no soft cushion to sit on; we can only sit on newspapers if you don't wish to stand. I stood, for the experience. It was fun.

We had straw hats, pails, fishnets and rattan bags prepared.

Off we go!

The journey into the orchard and waterfall was all rocky, bumpy, muddy and narrow! I had to hold onto the railings beside to keep myself from falling. But the sight of the waterfall is worth all of it. It was beautiful. Very peaceful too. The water was so cool. Felt almost like ice water..grr. There, Anna had fun. I had fun too, watching her. Can't get my eyes off her facial expressions when she managed to catch a fish or found a nice stone.

Too bad we reached there late, it wasn't long before we had to leave the place for dinner. Anna sure loved it because she kept saying that she wants to come here again tomorrow. This time round, she's too tired to walk along the hill up to the road where the jeep was parked. I carried her on my back and hell she's heavy! Hurr..On our way back to the house, it was another journey through rocky, bumpy, muddy and narrow road.

We had dinner at a place called, Chinese food for Muslims. Quite an interesting concept. The Tomyam there was really delicious! Sour enough and spicy enough. It's strange to see Malays, Indians and Chinese all together in a no-pork Chinese restaurant. They even serve Teh Tarik. What a combination. A

fter dinner we drove back to the city to our hotel. Hotel Seri Raub. It's the one and only reasonably clean hotel. I don't expect to find a 5-Star hotel in Raub anyway. But I was surprised at the condition of the hotel. It was way better than what I've expected. Clean bed sheets, nice toilet, cool air-conditioner. They even provide slippers, towels, shampoo and coffee! Not too bad for a place like Raub. Besides, it's so cheap! RM80/Night.

Checked. 9pm. And I'm back in the room.
Too bad there's nothing else I can do. All the shops are closed. The roads are so quiet. I wanted to take a walk since the air is fresh at night but my mom's ex-colleague warned me that there's alot of Indons workers here. Hmm..better not. Dangerous. So I ended up staying in the room reading Marian Keyes - Rachel's Holiday.

12 am. Lights off. La-la Land..
