Mid-sems over

So the mid semester exams are over, and it was kinda fun. Dynamics was a killer though. As Nicholas Lim would say: "Die-namics". Anyways, today was the final paper, physics. A bit tough, almost couldn't finish the questions.

Blerrgh. Enough about exams. :P

Went out with a few of my college/uni-mates to Sunway Pyramid today to meet up with an old friend. Ended up in Redbox. Estimated price was about RM8, but we spent RM16 on 'karaoke'ing. Have to cut costs this week.

Slight sore throat now due to belting out tunes at the tops of our voices. My voice is kinda funny, the songs are either one octave too high, or one octave too low for me to cope with at times, thus having to crack my voice to keep up.

----------------------------------------

I came up with this 'news report' while chatting with Jia Yean over msn:

In other news, a truckload of crayons were hijacked earlier this afternoon. Witnesses say that a furry little red humanoid looking creature with an orange nose is believed to be the suspect. Authorities are trying to bait said suspect into the open by playing the "Elmo's world" song, which many claim would bring the suspect scurrying out to join hands with the source and start dancing.

Be warned of the red furry creature! ;o

omgwtfbbq!

Well, I spent the last weekend supposedly studying. Note the use of the word 'supposedly'. Well anyways, my friends from the School of Engineering came over for a BBQ party at my house last Saturday. Well, it was a blast! :D

Yun Xin, Wei Leong, Darren and I even sneaked out for a while to get a birthday cake for Eric (which, by the time I post this, will be your birthday! So, HAPPY BIRTHDAY ERIC! =D).

Eric and my sis.

Coming back, we left the cake in the car and mingled a bit more. At around 10pm we took the cake out and surprised Eric, who was waiting in the sauna kitchen with the rest of the group.

The only let down was when my sister insisted that she cut Eric's cake and made a mess out of it, getting her hands everywhere. Sorry guys! >_<

Pictures credited to Joon Loong and Daniel Lau as I do not have my camera. I think it really is lost. *sigh* Thanks to Lindley for uploading the pictures to facebook!

Barbecue pit. Charcoal's roasting good.

Add some chicken, slather some honey and butter on it. Mmm.

Fruit/Jelly-eaters Extraordinaire!

Us in various stages of jumping. =)

Many thanks to Yun Xin and Shi Yunn for organising this event and making it happen! Thanks also to Wei Leong, Eric and Lindley who came over early to help out prepare the dishes! Many more thanks to all who helped with the grill, pit, and preparing the tables! But most of all, thanks for coming, and hope you had a blast!

If lost, please contact...

Yus, sorry for the lack of updates, I've been turning my house inside out to find my camera. You heard it right, I lost my camera. :/ I've checked Monash, the house, and even outside the house, you may never know where it went. I think it got fed uup of me taking to many random pictures that my camera just grew legs and ran away. D:

Next week's exam week, so you won't be hearing much from me. I'll be so busy drowning in various engineering subjects, trying to recall what our lecturers taught us in the past weeks.

See 'ya around!

Vroom... Kerplunk?

Haha, I guess I failed both driving tests today. I failed the slope, car went backwards instead of forwards. :/ As for on the road, let's just say the tester 'sabo'-ed me. He was in a hurry to get back to the institute to get more students who has actually left aside some prayer money. Remember, I didn't partake in this ritual. At least not yet.

And what fun, due to unforeseen circumstances, I won't be able to take my driving test till next month!

Oh, and did I mention that I met one of my ex-junior-schoolmate there? It was surprising, but yeah, I did meet Yi Koon there after failing both tests. School memories...

Driving test

Yus, tomorrow's my driving test. I've been playing the 'on-the-road' scenario in my head for like, since 7 in the evening. I tell myself I'm confident, buuuut...

Enough with the negativites, I can do it! *fingers crossed* Of course, I opted not to hand in 'prayer' money. After all, why pay extra when you can pass? (I think!)

I got tagged by Sonia! :P

This is what I should do:-

1) Go to MY photo folder in my computer.

2) Go to the 6th folder of MY photo folder.

3) Go to the 6th photo on that 6th folder.

4) Put the picture on MY blog and also the description of it.

5) Invite 6 friends to join the challenge.

6) Link them into MY blog to let them know they have been challenged.

Ah, I remember this day! This year during CNY we went to Vern Chien's house for a reunion party with our ex-schoolmates. The charcoal barbaecque was so slow that Gabriel got so fed up he took a fan to blow the fire.

Hmm, memories... (:

And I tag:
1) Jian Yao
2) Lindley

Melancholy

I saw you again, last night, in my dreams
You were sad, crying
I tried to reach out
But the walls around your heart proved too tall to climb
You walked off
I tried to follow, feet stuck in present time
Why do I feel like this?
Friends hold me back
Or is it just my ego?
I'm lost in time, swimming through my memories
Reliving every moment with you.

Looking at you, over the fence
Laughing and chatting with your buddies
But in your eyes, I see emptiness
Or it could be just a reflection of mine

Trying to fit in, like an odd piece of the jigsaw
When will I ever learn,
I can't go on without you.
