Warning! Boredom alert!

Well.... It's F(!@)*#@ boring! haha.. HAIH... 2 mid terms done.. probably 2 more to go.. alallalala.. Just to spice things up a bit..


Here comes the story.. Sick of describing each and every picture.. THerefore.. I decided to write a whole story of them.. First of all.. I had 2 mid terms in the past week... So.. I did not have time to err clean up my room.. ( althou I would not take the time to clean it up even i have the time.. I know.. its totally lame.. ) So... It was messy.. As u can seee.. So It's dinner time, For some reasons, I had the time to actually cook.. So I decided to fry a fish fillet and errrrr the "salted vegetable pork" * for complete recipe, visit Jian'sRecipe.com * Just kidding.. Okay.. the fish fillet was a totally failure.. as you can see.. it does not resembles any fish at all... the salted vege pork was AWESOME.. well.. maybe its overated but I thought so.. haha.. just forgot to remove the pork skin.. which makes it kinda chewyyyyyyy...

OKOK.. after dinner.. Not really satisfied.. with all the stress due to studying for the mid terms.. I had to eat a SNICKERS ICE CREAM.. So I went over to 7-11 which is just 2 houses away from my place.. Still not satisfied after doing all the frustrating revision.. Went to "FANTASIA CAFE". They claim to be the best milk tea around.. I wonder if that is true.. Their milk tea was... HMMMM a BIT.. better than MAMAK's teh ais.. The pearls were chewy though.. which is not offered in a mamak teh ais.. * Warning! :It would be totally disgusting if u find something chewy in your mamak teh ais * After all that.. I went back to study.. ANd tadaaa... Accounting results was pretty... and heat transfer isnt out yet... Hopefully they all went well.. =/

Thats it for now.. OWH.. wait..

Talkin about the Speedo of time..

Woohoo.. I can still recall the time like a few weeks ago.. When I was still studying for my finals back in Malaysia.. I was in my room.. sitting on my white desk and blue chair.. looking at the blue sky.. and the far far stuffs.. Now.. I am back to San Jose and its been like 2 weeks already! Now Im no more studying on my white desk or had to hop into my Blue SLK to drive to college or work.. haha.. How weird this is.. I remember like a few days ago.. when I woke up.. It felt strange.. I think I actually dreamt of home.. haha.. Yea yea.. I guess I miss home.. but well.. ahah.. THe picture was taken back in HK airport.. Look at all the Cathay flights.. haha..

Isn't it amazing how time moves.. It is constantly growing on us.. And we don't even notice it.. SOmetimes.. It gets scary.. There's no stopping to it.. haha.. ANd you know.. Maybe you all don have this fear.. but i do.. As I see my parents, uncles, aunties, all growing older and older.. I just can't avoid from all those thoughts.. But well.. I guess that's life.. Starts with birth.. and ends with death.. Unavoidable.. Now now.. Im just bored here.. That's why decided to write something here.. I read my HandBook for writers and it thought me to freewrite my thoughts.. haha.. It says that it is not required to be organized.. just random thoughts.. =P

Finally, I quoted the following.. Coz I find it quite.. MEANINGFUL and funny too! Enjoy and good nite!

Lesson 1:
A priest offered a Nun a lift. She got in and crossed her legs, forcing her gown to reveal a leg. The priest nearly had an accident. After controlling the car, he stealthily slid his hand up her leg. The nun said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?' The priest removed his hand. But, changing gears, he let his hand slide up her leg again. The nun once again said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?' The priest apologized 'Sorry sister but the flesh is weak.' Arriving at the convent, the nun sighed heavily and went on her way. On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to look up Psalm 129. It said, 'Go forth and seek, further up, you will find glory.'
Moral of the story: If you are not well informed in your job, you might miss a great opportunity.

Lesson 2:
An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing nothing. A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked him, 'Can I also sit like you and do nothing?' The eagle answered: 'Sure, why not.' So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the eagle and rested. All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.
Moral of the story: To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.

Lesson 3:
A turkey was chatting with a bull. 'I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree' sighed the turkey, 'but I haven't got the energy.' 'Well, why don't you nibble on some of my droppings?' replied the bull. They're packed with nutrients.' The turkey pecked at a lump of dung, and found it actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree. The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch. Finally after a fourth night, the turkey was proudly perched at the top of the tree. He was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out of the tree.
Moral of the story: Bull Shit might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there..

Lesson 4:
A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold the bird froze and fell to the ground into a large field. While he was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on him. As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, he began to realize how warm he was. The dung was actually thawing him out! He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy. A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate. Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him.
Morals of the story:
(1) Not everyone who shits on you is your enemy.
(2) Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your friend.
(3) And when you're in deep shit, it's best to keep your mouth shut!

San Jose, California

hmm.. I need an update I guess.. Here I am again. Back in San Jose. Same old place. Same old apartment.. ahah.. everything seemed to be much more familiar than the first time I came here.. I guess I am more comfortable with the place now..Gosh.. Talking about that.. It's so freaking Hot over here! And I mean RED HOT!!! yes.. its like more than 100F outside.. Its crazy hot.. I think that is about 30 + C? let's see.. the formula is (112 - 32) * 5 / 9 = 44C!? hmm.. Not too sure if this is correct.. but trust me.. It's really HOT!!

Talking bout the last weekend before I came back to San Jose.. It was quite.. enjoyable yet.. Suffering.. haha.. I had this incredible lost of appetite on the Sunday morning I think.. Didn't managed to eat anything, but just some porridge.. And I slept from like 11am till 5pm? Later at nite.. I thought I got better and was lying on the sofa watching badminton finals.. Which Lee Chong Wei played against Lin Dan. Half way through the first set, Lee Chong Wei was already struggling to keep up with Lin Dan. Just about that time, my mom kinda asked me to drink up my medicine.. Panadol it is! soluble.. I drank about a quater of it.. AND WOOSH! Everything is rushing up my throat!

And then.. The most disgusting part.. I threw out everything in the toilet.. After that.. I felt really tired and exhausted and went straight to bed.. Ignoring the IMBA badminton match.. ( A new word that I learned in Msia.. IMBA = Imbalanced ) the next morning.. I think I got better.. and started eating again.. but of course.. not fully recovered yet.. bla bla bla.. That's about it.. haha.. Owh yah.. we had a karaoke session before I left.. haha..

My stop at Hong Kong was full of excitement! haha.. from taking the MTR to the hotel.. to Shopping and eating non stop.. the only down side of my stop was that I had to carry my back pack and lap top on the first nite.. It was really really heavy.. My shoulders ache for like 3 days after the stop.. man... But well.. Hong Kong is cool.. Loads of exotic stuffs.. hahaha.. And of course.. CHinese CHICS! LENG LUIS! haha.. lalala. too bad I didn't meet Linda Chung! haha.. There are some pictures taken but its all with my sis.. haah.. will try to post some when i get them.. =P

Finally, back to San jose.. I just purchased a set of speakers on Amazon.com! It's Logitech. which costs me about 30 dollars including shipping.. I thought it was a good deal.. =)
Tadaaa! Here's a look at the speakers..
Hmm.. That's it for now I guess.. Classes this semester aren't that hectic as the last one.. I think I have more free time this time around.. Am only taking 15 units.. haha.. But hopefully I can deal with it with ease! =) till then.. I miss Malaysia! haha..

Locating myself

Been trying to study since I woke up this morning at around 10 AM! But then.. started watching TV... Olympics and all is just too distracting.. My brain now feels like a wet sponge with zero capacity of absorbing stuffs.. It's full.. Of many many things.. Just like a full Hard disk.. I don't know how I am going to deal with this.. I will probably screw up tmr's finals.. F#*()$()#*)(

Also, I am trying to find someone to talk to about this.. until I tried looking for one.. I found out that I could not find any.. I don't know who to talk to.. Or rather there's no one I can talk to.. Screw all these craps! I HATE THIS!

NO TITLE!

Yes! no title! ahah.. I still remember when I was taking English class in the US, the lecturer always remind me of putting a title on the essay im writing.. and I will always be in dilemma in deciding what the title should be.. I can spend like 10 minutes thinking bout the title.. haha..It is just so hard.. Well.. Maybe for Ppl with IQ 100 like me, its a really difficult task.. haha

Hmm.. I received comments about my post with all the wonderful colors that we ppl who are not color blind get to differentiate and enjoy them.. but well.. since u guys prefer monotone.. HERE IT IS.. SEE WHAT THE COLOR BLIND PPL SEE! haha.. Sounds like SAW and the JOKER in Batman.. dei.. trying to imitate la.. THe Dark Knight was a really awesome movie! Kinda long.. But if I wasn't rushing to yum char in station 1 with my fellow friends.. I would enjoy the movie even more.. I was like.. C'mon.. It should be ending now.. hahaa. and tick tick tick.. the clock just keep ticking and joker is still around there joking.. =.= Finally it was 11.30 pm and we actually ran to the car.. hahaha..

Hmm.. Sexay is leaving in i forgot how many days.. But really really soon! I really din spend much time with her as promised.. haha.. It's always like that.. Sorry Sorry.. THis summer is really a hectic one.. I have so many things that I wanted to do that I find myself constantly multi tasking at times.. but.. haha.. I accept the challenge.. =) no prob man.. Well.. I guess its not about the length of the time we spent.. but the quality of the time we spent together. =) haha. the yum char session in Station 1 last nite totally exceeded my expectations.. It was full of laughter and comfort! haha.. No pressure at all.. We can basically talk about anything dont we? ahhaa.. cool! I thought we could talk till dawn arrives if we wanted to.. hehe..

Rarh.. everyone is leaving! how how? hahaa.. looks like we are going to be apart yet again.. haha.. but well.. we will each have our own lives in our own destinations.. But i believe we will all come together again.. one day... one fine day.. and talk our hearts out.. haha =) Really looking forward towards that day!

An essay always ends wit a conclusion.. And so.. here it is.. I would like to end this "no title" by saying.. NO CONCLUSION IS NEEDED because this is my, personal BLOG! No need for all these crazy formats!

Given a second chance! =) Part 2

After shooting a few pictures at the hill top, we headed to the "Cave of Ears" (Gua Telinga) more like a cave of bat crap to me.. LOL.. The smell was absolutely horrible even from outside! Limpard was in a dilemma whether he should enter the cave since he had a doubtful ankle.. But in the end! He decided to join in the fun.. ( TOUCHING BAT CRAPS! ) The cave exploration was full of excitement with the climax at the end when our Hokkien Clan's president, Elwin Gwee, had a muscle pull (chou jin)!! hahahaha.. It was so funny because everyone else was stucked behind him when he couldn't move forward.. In the end, with his strong determination, he managed to move on.. SEMANGAT GOTBIRD! way to go president! The cave exploration was definitely a must go for everyone! ahha.. Gua Tempurung is better thou.. in my opinion.. haha


Next, we went to the upstream of the river to wash off all the bat craps and soak in the supercooling upstream water.. It was really cool and fun.. haha.. Then, we headed back to our "hotel", took a shower, and went for dinner. Everyone was kinda exhausted and we decided to stay in the room and start playing games and get drunk.. We played a Killer game with cards with so many funny moments which I won't be able to cover in this post.. haha.. I guess the most memorable moment was when YCC was accused as a killer and he explained himself that his dad sells Pork Noodle and his mom sells Noodles.. //That was superlame and totally out of the context of the game... well.. he was named by others as DDLG.. hahahaha =P


On the next morning, we head off to a place where we jungle tracked to a some kind of waterfall thingy and took some pictures there. We also managed to get ourselves wet in one of the shallow pools.. lead by YCC.. The water was rather yellowish, But it didn't matter much as we were all soaked.. After that we checked out from our "hotel" and began our journeyyyyyyy home...... Owh.. Before the journey, we went to a Chinese Air conditioned restaurant for lunch.. THE food there was simply awesome!!


So, we began our long journey home.. Our car was driven by China Apek and Yee kuan drove his car. Everything was going smoothly as me and YCC both fell asleep in the car after the awesome meal. Chairmaine was the only one awake keeping China Apek company.. It was after about half an hour drive.... when I was suddenly awaken by this loud shout of China Apek.

China Apek: Why is the car coming like that!!!?!!! What is he/she doing!!!??? ( in Mandarin )
//It was as loud as a lion's roar..

The next moment, when i was barely awake (eyes half opened), I saw a White Nissan Sunny, which looked rather old..
COMING STRAIGHT AT US!!!!!!

Within a blink of an eye.. I am not really sure what happened, but was praying in my heart that please let me and my friends all be safe and alive.. And I started to feel the swelling of my lips and also saw the deep cut on my knee.. The only taste that I had in my mouth was the iron taste of BLOOD. From that moment, I knew it was a terrible, horrible accident. I looked to my side to check on the driver, china Apek and sighted his head to be bleeding.. But it wasn't a deep cut.. WIthin seconds, YCC and China Apek started arguing and China Apek was apologizing towards what he did over and over again... Moreover, he kept repeating that it was not his fault..
//We all knew it was not his fault... It was no one's fault as no one would like something like this to happen..
The next moment.. I heard ppl from outside shouting to get out of the car and I started trying opening the door.. After like 3 trials.. I thought.. OMGOSH.. we are trapped.. THis is it for me.. Until i realized that the door was locked.. =.= I pulled up the door lock and someone opened the door and got us to a lil pondok at the roadside.. I was still wondering if all these that just happened was a dream until china apek suddenly laid his head on my shoulder saying that he felt really dizzy.. and so I just let him.. After a while.. He went unconscious for a few seconds where he almost fell to the ground.. Someone shouted at me to help him out and I finally woke up and was pretty sure that these are all happening!! OMGosh..


After about 5 minutes of waiting in the pondok, a kind Malay man came to us and offer us a ride to the Clinic which is located in Mendakap.. We hopped into his SLK and he drove as fast as he could to the Clinic! //A thousand thank you to you! =)


Okay.. Im all lazy now.. will continue again soon.. LOL...

To Be Continue...................

Given a second chance! =)

On the 31st of May, I was back from the US for just about a week and was already heading towards my first trip in Malaysia as planned by our trip organizer, YCC. 8 of us agreed to head to Taman Negara, a national reserved park in Malaysia. Two cars were needed for the trip as we decided to drive up to Jerantut where the jetty to Taman Negara is. So it is, 4 in each car, with me, YCC, cheah hun, and Chairmaine in a Proton Wira drove by YCC. Another 4 in a Hyundai Getz drove by Elwin Gwee ( Yee Kuan) , with 3 other passengers: Alex, Matthew ( Chee How ), and Kwan Lim.

// denotes comments in C programming.
// sorry for the boring introduction, but I promised it will get interesting ... Patience! haha..


We started our journey in the early morning, about 5am. A meeting point at the SS15 Mcdonald's. //wootz.. Mcdonald's are now open 24 hours a day, which means obesity to Malaysians! Instead of healthy (questionable) mamak, now Malaysians are given the choice of Mcdonald's. Here, hungry and sleepy people in the early morning like me, grabbed some breakfast from McDs.. Their BIG BREAKFAST isn't as big as the name suggests. Without wasting any time, we hopped into our cars and started our engine and also journey towards
Jerantut. The journey was kinda long and the roads were kinda curvy. Nevertheless, I slept my way throughout the journey until we are about an hour from our destination. //omgosh.. I can't believe I have so much craps to write about.. haha.. Well.. This is the value of a long post after a long period of time.. It shows effort okay? =P


Now, now.. After about 3 hours of driving, we arrived in
Jerantut, a small town in Pahang. We had some DIM SUM and Chinese food at a Hawker center and was told by YCC that it will be our LAST CHINESE MEAL!!! //well, guess he was right.. We had Malay and Western food in Taman Negara. Notice the LAST, it might've really been our last chinese meal for the four of us..



After checking in to our "HOSTELS", //was surprising that they had air conditioner! Thumbs up! We went for jungle tracking up the hills which was really tiring.. //pss... hehehe.. Kwan Lim vomited half way up hill.. awwwwww poor thing.. PROBABLY LACK OF EXERCISE!! ahhhh.. the fonts are all screwed up..

Talking about time flies..


It's been almost a year since I last went home. By home, I mean my home home.. hahaha.. the place where and grew up and learnt a bunch of stuffs, met a lot of people and had many many memories both good and bad...

It is just about 3 more days or so till I will be home again.. The anticipation kicks in again just as usual. Studying in finals and packing are both a pain in the ass.. hahaha.. But.. everything seems less important now.. I just wanna get my ass home and catch up with what is left in Malaysia..

3 months it seems I will be staying.. having to take 2 classes in Inti college where I am considered an alumni.. and also probably an intern opportunity with my dad's fren in a boiler company..

So, busy summer it seems huh? I guess.. Hope you guys will leave ur weekends empty for me! haha.. as i think my weekdays will be more or less hectic.. I really want to catch up with every single one of you.. hahaha.. listening to your lame jokes.. your downs and ups.. your everything!

For now, I don't really have the mood to get my head down and start studying for 2 more finals that are coming up on tuesday and wednesday.. I should probably be packing up my stuffs now..
hmmm.. alrite then... till FRIDAY! looking forward to see you all! =)

p/s: added the photo coz someone said I did not upload photos.. haha

Best wishes,

Jian Wei
