Holidays!!!

It's been a while since my last update. Almost 2 weeks plus had passed since Merdeka. Well, blame it on the lack of inspiration. Or maybe it's my lazy bone kicking in. Somehow, I just don't feel like writing anything on my blog without really having anything to say. Not that I have anything to say now, but...Take it as a call to a long lost friend asking how he/she is doing and telling the world that I'm still alive.

Anyhow, it's already the second week of the two week break we had for the Raya celebration. Originally, I thought of staying back in Penang to work, to find some extra cash to fund my very costly expeditions next year, but, due to my brotherly duty of teaching my sister Maths for her upcoming STPM exam(with I barely did until today which is totally not my fault!), I went back home. Then, I was like wanting to go back early to do the piles of works that keep on piling high but, well, having fun and meeting up with old and new friends seem to take over the desire to work. What to do, I'm a really lazy fella.

That's basically what I did for the last week, going out meeting with friends, having lunch and dinner with them, while stuffing myself with home cooked meals. Well, it's really stuffing as the portion back home is freaking crazy. It's like a feast for 5 to 6 people where the house only have like 3 adults and one child, all of which eat very little. So, I ended up swallowing to avoid wasting.

Karaoke session with that bunch of people is always fun, especially that entertainer friend of ours. Dinner at Michaelangelo's is really worth the value and it's not really expensive to begin with. Meeting up with Nava is really nice considering it's been more than two years, I think, since we last met. Need to hang out with him this week again this week before both of us heading back to our universities respectively. Then, getting to meet with new friends, Sarah and Pui Yun, well, it's nice, to say the least.

How comes holidays have to end so freaking fast???

The Last Week Before The Holidays...

The last week before the mid semester break is full of mid term tests and assignments that to be due this week. What a terrible way to spend the perfect weekend with the nice Merdeka break on Tuesday. If I were locking myself in the room studying and finishing assignments, which I should do and which I failed to do so. The weekend was spent cruising around Penang, with the exception of Sunday itself as there was a test on Monday morning.

To make things a bit clearer, this week before the holidays, on Monday, which already a past tense, I had a test in the morning and an assignment due later in the afternoon. Wednesday, another test and an assignment due. Come Friday, two more assignments. And before that weekend arrived, I had touched almost none of it, with the exception of the Monday-due assignment. Clear???

Now, Monday had came and gone, with the Merdeka holiday fully secured in the afternoon. Most likely, I'm gonna snored till around 11am like that what with the time I'm going to sleep later. Oh yea, I just came back from an outing which lasted for almost almost 8 hours. More information will be spilled later.

It will be busy days ahead what with all the writings needed to be done and readings needed to be finished. Well, there's always a price to be paid for all the enjoyment in life and I'm willing to carry the burden for I really do have fun these few days. Glad that I went for it.

Ooo ya, Selamat Menyambut Hari Kemerdekaan Ke-53 or Happy 53th Independence Day!!!

Planning (Need Money!)

Now that both my air flight tickets already secured, it's time to save up money and also find some part time works to generate some income. And it's also mean I need to resist the urge to buy stuffs that I want or that I like. Spending money is always easier than earning it.

Planning for the trip...Cambodia is approaching, in a year time. But it doesn't mean I can't plan where I want to go and what I want to do. This coming holidays I'm going to use it to plan for the trip, where to stay, check the budget, do the route planning, and so on. My target is to use less than RM1000 for the whole Cambodia trip. Hopefully, with good planning, will not be hard.

Next up, Macau. Which is so much longer than the Cambodia trip. Therefore, more time to plan for it. A must do in Macau is to bungee jumping. Again, hopefully, I save up enough so that I can spend without concerning too much about budget. At most, RM3000 hopefully?

After all these trips, I can declare myself bankrupt. And I still got more plans I want to execute after my last semester. But that would require financial support already. More on that later when details are more transparent.

And I have tonnes to buy also. Need money...Jobs, where are you???

Graduation Trip to Cambodia!!!

While the excitements from going to Macau July next year is still in the air (for me, at least), another trip has been planned and air flights booked. This time, it's Cambodia! The whole thing is full of ups and downs, with less than one day of planning and off we go to execute the idea. I already predicted that AirAsia would not be possible to accommodate the huge numbers of us with its RM1 promotion but it is still affordable and cheap.

The booking process is very exhilarating, rushing to get those promotion seats. Luckily, almost everyone managed to secure a seat. It's like a potpourri of emotions. You'll get high, low, excited, disappointment, joy, frustration, happiness, anger, all at one go. I learned my lesson.

Anyhow, with air flights' done, now, it's time to plan the schedule. Can't wait to actually step my feet on their soils. I need to start saving already.

Thank You, AirAsia!

Thanks to the people of AirAsia, I get to travel to Macau at such a low cost. AirAsia is having a mind-blowing promotion where fares are as low as RM1 only. Where can you get it at such prices anymore???

Since the air flights already settled, I'll be heading off to Macau July next year. I know, I know, it's still like almost a year away but the excitement is very elevated. Give me few more days and I'll be back to normal.

Ruins of St. Pauls
Macau without gambling??? Where can???

And, of course, BUNGEE JUMPING!!!!! Tonight I'm gonna sleep with a grin on my face!

BBQ Gathering

For the first time after 2+ years of being coursemates, we finally had our first truly gathering, with all minus 2 managed to spare some of their extremely busy time to make this event a success. A great gratitude must goes to our M&E boss for joining us and also bought us Ferrero chocolates. ¡Muchos gracias! Another thanks must go to the Peking lady for the humor she brought to the whole house. You really worth RM120.

There is nothing special about the whole BBQ thing but it is nonetheless, a special thing, I hope, to all of us. I mean, how often do we all come out and hang out, releasing all our stresses and troubles, simply enjoying ourselves? Simply close to zero. Well, just one more year left for us all to go gila and we must treasure whatever time left to hang out.

From the whole shopping spree to the BBQ itself and to my experimental popcorn success, there's just too many sweet memories being captured and stored inside my mind. Even if I forgot who you are after 10 years (sorry to say so but my memory very char in term of names and faces...), I'll still remember this BBQ for as long as I live.


When we arrived 1st...

Then, all had reached the destination...
