29 March 2010 - WOOHOO, jungle trekking! Went to Gopeng jungle with my St John division 2 days ago. We went there by bus and reach Gopeng town around 9am. Then, the person in-charge from Adeline Rest House transported us to the rest house using their lorry and van =_=''
The journey from the town to their rest house took approximately 15 minutes.
Adeline Rest House is a kampung style village. The air is so refreshing there~
Those who went along with me were Joe Hang, Wai Hoong and Kin Ho. The 4 of us were the only seniors there.
Before we departed for our journey, there was warm up session led by Mr Prakas.
After that, we were off to the jungle!
The route was not easy to walk after all. One mistake and you will fall deep down to the bottom. Not to mention the thorny plants and disgusting insects which you will never encounter except in the jungle. I nearly fall down few times due to the slippery route there.
We came to halt in front of a river.
With the assistance of the guides and a rope, we managed to cross to the other end one by one.
We were walking slowly and patiently with our sweaty body for almost 3 hours. Before we went back to the rest house, we stopped at a river bank near the road side to refresh ourselves and to clean up some dirt and remove those 'cute' leeches.
We were back to the rest house around 1pm. Lunch are provided so we took our meal there before going back to school around 3pm.
I've snapped plenty of shots during the jungle trekking and the one I would like to highlight here is...
Wai Hoong the cat molester!

24 March 2010 - Finally, I took my car test after months of practicing. I felt quite nervous at first because I've failed badly in my pre-test which is weeks ago. Arrived LSA super early which is 8am+ with Uncle Patrick and a girl whom he fetched along. To my surprise, Ting Yuan, Sheng Rong, Steven Liew and a few schoolmates of mine were there too. Firstly, there was a short ceramah which I ignored totally due to the boring environment there. Then, we were tested on slope, parking and three-point turn.
I passed those sections with lady luck on my side. Then, I was made waiting in the pondok menunggu for almost an hour =_=''. I don't know why my heart was beating so fast, my friends told me if I did not give duit kopi then it's difficult for me to pass the Jalan Raya section.
It's my turn around 11am+, things goes on smoothly at first, but then the engines goes off in a sudden when I reach the road beside Tesco Extra. Haiz, need to restart back the engine. My instructor told me if my car engine goes off for three times, then it's time to say babai~ The route I was assigned to was 'E' road (This makes me like the word E). The simplest and nearest route back to LSA.
Overall result 17/20 =)
(Passing Marks: 16/20)
I passed~

20 March 2010 - As what's written on my blog title, I was invited to Momo Steamboat Restaurant for a reunion with my former primary school classmates. Actually I was in the fifth class for two years which is standard 4 and 5 and was transferred to second class for the final year in my primary school. I was glad that they still remember me! T_T
Let's see.... One.. two.. 13 of us. Not bad too, we managed to gather 13 person in a table after five long years. The last gathering I went was two months ago. That time was not as fun as this time as we have our 'Prince Charming' Chan Li Heng attending. He really jokes and talks a lot. Too bad we deleted his self-snapped photos.
I recognized almost everyone in the reunion except for Joey. Her arrogant face was not the same anymore, kinda weird O_o
Anthony was getting slimmer, Kit Kei and Zher Han's hair longer and most of them their face were unchanged.
Ting Tian was present too. I recalled back the scene last year when I met him in Yuk Choy High School. He was the photographer and I was the secretary for a St John camp. He passed me those photos on the last day of the camp. I shook his hand and ask for his name and I introduced myself too. The most funny and surprising thing was he added me in my msn and told me he was my former classmate. I was like 'OMG', why am I so blur?! =D
Li Heng, Ting Tian, Sze Ngou,
Wai Pin, Anthony, Kah Keen, Chee How,
Kin Soon, Joey, Kit Kei, Pei Kuan, Zher Han
.
Thank you for you guys and gals for attending =)
.
He is the Prince Charming that everyone falls in love with..
Those who wished to get his contact number please do not hesitate to ask me~
SPM Result

12 March 2010 - SPM result day was yesterday. I went to school with a bunch of my former classmates and had out breakfast at the mamak store opposite our school. After that, I was waiting patiently at Ipoh Padang with them.
I was waiting, waiting, waiting and kept waiting. The scheduled release time of 10.00am was postponed to 10.30am. I think they did it on purpose to let us suffer from nervous breakdown.
I did not snap any photos after 10.30am. My heart was beating faster than the speed of a toy plane and the sweat on my face was dropping like a tightened pipe. Nah, I was just joking. But the situation in the school hall was terrible. Everyone was lining up to get their SPM slips.
This is Kisor - 7A+,2A
I saw my friend took the files containing the slip, some certificates and a copy of The Michaelian one by one from Cik Siti. I was nervous and afraid. I've prepared for the worst and hope for the best for the long 3 months. Finally, I walked slowly to Cik Siti accompanied by Joe Hang and some friends who comforted me. They asked me not to be scared and be calm.
When Cik Siti saw me, she clapped her hands in a sudden and showed me my slip. This reminded me of my form3 class teacher, Puan Hartini who congratulate me before I take my PMR slip. To my surprise, a string of A's appeared right in front of my eyes with some positive and negative signs. STRAIGHT A'S!!! YEA, IT'S STRAIGHT!
I was so lucky after all. I knew that I did not push to my 100% during the examination but I still managed to get some A- which is equivalent to A2 for the old grading system. It's quite weird and funny for some of you if I tell u I did not get the A which is equivalent to A1. It's only those positive and negative signs. Okay okay, here are my results:
English : A+
Pendidikan Moral : A+
Sejarah : A-
Mathematics : A+
Additional Mathematics : A+
Physics : A-
Chemistry : A+
Biology : A-
Although I'm quite lucky and cheer up this time, but my happiness was dashed when most of my friends were sad and turned moody on the same day. Some will said it's their lucky day, some will say it's the worst day of their life. For me, of cause I'm proud of my achievement because I will get some praises and compliments from others for now.
However, this result does not guarantee anything in my far future. The same goes to everyone of you. Successful people does not necessary have a good academic achievements. Some said knowledgeable people have to work for those uneducated ones because they have knowledge and can handle various stuff and those uneducated have no knowledge at all and they have to hire people to work for them. This makes them the boss. But don't you think it's the best of both worlds when you are educated and you are the boss hiring educated people to work for you too? In this way, you wont be cheated by others too.
Anyway, CONGRATULATIONS from the bottom of my heart not only to those who achieve excellent results but also to those whose result met their expectation. There's one friend of mine who I wished to highlight here too.
He told me he was happy with his result although he managed to grab 2A's which is very less compared to some of you and mean a lot for some who are weak. The moment I chat with him I can feel that he was satisfied with his result and have no regret after all. His targets was..
Maximum target: 2A's
I felt so surprise and admire him at the same time. He get all his targets done and was proud to achieve it. He has aims and goals in life. This makes him an all around winner of all.
In a nutshell, there's NO good or bad results in life. The good or bad depends on how you see it and not how others see it. You see things in your way, when you feel that you've done nothing wrong, then you will be right although the world is blaming you. If you feel that you are wrong in certain things, then you won't be right too even 10 angels are supporting you.
So, cheer up all of you =)
Cameron Highlands One Day Trip

2 March 2010 - Went to Cameron Highlands last Sunday, which is 2 days ago. I decided to refresh myself there after some long hectic life. I went with 5 others who are my uncle, my aunt, both my sisters and Sze How.
We did not visit much places as the time of arrival is around 1.30pm and it's already afternoon.
The first place we went was Green View Garden. I don't recall any places there most probably because the last time I visited was 4 or 5 years ago.
I decided to snap some photos since the flowers and plants there are so colourful.
Green plants were planted there too~
My aunt loves those vegetables so much.
After that, we went to Boh Tea Center. The center has been renovated since the last time I went.
Saw the photo below? Our car have to be parked down the hill and we have to walk up all the way towards the center.
RM3+ for a cup of BOH tea..
Then we decided to post in front of the center's name.
Random shots were taken later as remembrance.
WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEE, jump-shot, the photo of the day.
And the last thing which is a must to eat before we leave was.....
Yea, the yummy strawberry ice-cream~
