Movie World

it was Dan's birthday.. Happy birthday Dan... Hope you were happy!

Yea, we went to the Warners Bros. Movie World.. I saw Shrek, Scoobie-Doo, Batman and Superman inside... Really an eye-opener for a kampung boy like me.. haha. I have only been to Sunway Lagoon and Genting Theme park. And frankly speaking, they are no fight to this one... and this isn't the best park in Australia. I wonder what the so-called Australia's largest theme park has to offer.

Anyway, i don't think I am going to that theme park as i have got myself a nearly a year unlimited entry to this Movie world and it's associate themeparks for AUD 99.95... hehe.. I was thinking we might not be able to get it as the offer is opened for Queensland residents only, I was in doubt of our status as a student here.. Thank God that we are granted permission to get the pass.. hahaa, at least there is some place where i can scream all i want when i feel like doing so for the next one year...

for a student like me, without excess money, that's the best thing I can do to at least let myself relax abit... I wonder what would be the feeling of going to a theme park alone, maybe i should try it out sometimes.. *blink* damn pathetic right if i have to go there alone? but i should try.. the only thing is the bus ride which will take me an hour and a half from my house. Through and fro would cost only less than AUD 5.. Kinda cheap actually because the concession price we have =)..

Gonna rock another 2 parks soon since we have already paid for the entry by paying for the VIP pass... hehe. i will long for that one..

Good day!

an update

It's near to one month since I am here in Gold Coast. Time flies. It really flies. And I haven't found myself to be part of the community here yet. I feel like I'm a tourist.. LOL





Allowance is in today. Not a lot. Just enough for a basic basic life. My cooking skills got brushed up by a little already since i moved here. Have to cook every day.. =.="" but somehow cooking is fun.. but it's time consuming.. Maybe i can cook you a good meal when I am back in Malaysia.. haha. I fried Bee Hoon this afternoon..

This was what I had for my lunch today... It tastes not bad, seriously.. haha

Got abit sleepy now... maybe i wil just grab a little quick nap.. Cheers!

Australia's Moon

It's dark out there. and it was mooncake festival night. The Moon was so nice, round and bright up there. It brightened the whole beach.

I smelled salt. The waves were rushing to the beach. One is higher than the other. They come nearer and nearer to me as i stood distance away from the water.... The sound of the wave hitting the sand is soothing yet lonely. i looked out. There is literally noone at the beach. There is only me standing there, alone.

I took off my slippers. My feet were on the sand. It was cold but it was powdery. It's so fine that it felt like putting my feet in talcum powder. I felt blessed to be able to walk on this piece of land. I looked again at the moon. Then I looked at myself. Being alone during mooncake festival isn't too bad. Maybe I will start to miss home another few more weeks or months? Maybe not? or maybe few days from now?

The wind blowed on my face. My thin jacket somehow managed to keep me warm. It was not as cold as what i thought it would before i came here.

I stood there and embraced the ocean in front of me and of course, the full moon.

p/s: have i told u that the beach is just at the back of my house?? haha

below are some of my photos captured by my "so-so" phone.... enjoy!

^^^^ my house ^^^^^

in the center

^^^ this is my room^^^

I took the video standing behind my house, the wind was strong that my t-shirt flapped not stop.. :-)

Happy Mooncake Festival peeps! till then.

丹容马林饥饿30

从五月忙到八月。心里的期待不曾少过。第一次主办这么样的营会，饥饿30更是我的第一次！心里的忐忑以及迫不及待的心理，实在令我喘不过气来！从招募筹委至招募营员到招募志工，那路途可真不容易。尤其是到了期限还找不到足够的营员时，那沮丧的心是文章所不能形容的。

说真的，看到营会开始的那一刹那，心里真的有种莫名的感触...... 虽说我们营会缺席了整30多个人，但是我们的士气绝对没有因此而低落！各位工委及营员们的大力支持使到场面便活跃，生动！看在眼里，一切尽在不言中。。。。


“明天还有希望”奏出了孩童对世界的期望，我们在饥饿30就能成就他们期望的一部分。我们融合了意义及欢乐，让大家体验饥饿的同时也让大家带走那么一个美好回忆（至少对我而言，那是美好的）。澎湃的心化成了一股力量，笼罩整个客属会馆。那爱心真的能感化身边的人！还有几久才能让我再次体会这么美好的感受呢？？？

心里的不舍敌不过时间的摧赶，散席时间让心里的不适涌到了极点。。。。。

再会朋友们！饥饿30永存！


丹容马林饥饿30，我爱你！！！！

Life is a Gamble

Life is a gamble. Is it not?

When we pay for university, do we know for sure we're going to pass out?

When we pay for a good, is it sure that that thing is in good condition?

When we take a loan for a house, do you know for sure that your house isn't haunted?

When we pay for the car, do we know if it's being stolen the next day?

What we do is only to evaluate the risk, to weight the importance of things, and to minimise the risk we're undertaken.

Risk cannot be eradicated. Even if when we're crossing a road, a car may just hit on us. What we do in life is just to gamble safely. That's what i think. And my biggest capital is? my youth of course.....

the result

I got 7.0 for IELTS. Disappointed. I thought I can get higher than that maybe by 0.5 band? Anyway, It doesn't matter. not affecting me.... maybe a bit, emotionally. Still waiting for the other set of result..... how would it be?

when i speak only to myself in the brain

IELTS squeezed my brain for the whole morning. It has been such a long time since i last did that kind of tedious English exam. I'm looking forward for the result in 2 weeks time. I will be recieving 2 sets of results by then. A bit scary huh? haha. I was kind of exhausted after the listening, speaking and reading test. I had lunch with my fellow friends after the tests. Too bad i don't have those photos. =)

And you know what? I drove from Menara PKNS to kelana jaya through the ss2 road, and guess how long i took? 1 HOUR! The damn traffic jam like mad. It exhausts me further....... I slept through my way to British Council, somewhere near the KLCC lrt station.. And there is where I have my speaking test at 4.00pm.

After the test??? haha. Here it is!



KLCC, a place where I have been absent from for quite some times..... I love the place. I like the MPO! and just now i enter Suria KLCC through the MPO entrance, there is a nice concert tonight. So I called up Adrian to ask if he is interested. Negative result. I wanted to go there alone, but thinking of the journey i have to make (through and fro from kelana jaya and KLCC) just to have the clothes changed stops me.

The crowd was so big. I dislike the crowd. I don't like hectic places. I enjoy loneliness (at times, haha). I was by myself. I start observing people. I see girls, abit dissappointed though. hahaha

I was humid and it made me so uncomfortable till I'm in this:

I stayed in there for like 2 hours ++... I browsed through books and magazines. It's a good feel . I like bookstore. I felt at home. LOL. I am a nerd. =P I saw a lot of kids there today. They were happily flapping through books... I don't remember lingering around a bookstore when i was young.... It's a loss, I wish i had. I bought myself a discovery magazine. Gonna finish it ASAP. hehe. My dinner? this one!



1901. I like the packing, it's meaningful, really a must-read! The Deutch Doodle Dang doesn't taste as good as it looks. The mashed potato was ok though. I enjoyed it.



LO 'n' E. If only the V in inverted. yeah, I celebrated my togetherness with my soul. hohoho
I saw this billboard on my way back. I took it down because she(the one in pink) is so pretty. Two ladies were stunt seeing me taking down the photo of the billboard.. Haha. But, she made my day. =D

Oh yeah, i met 黎耀祥 in KLCC. With two body guards when I was walking into the toilet.... My first response was stunned, thinking who's that. Then I realised! Cai Gao!

The BROGA

Saw the sweat on my shirt??? this was around 6am. We're yet to get to the peak of the BROGA hill.

Chook, the leader, with his "un-laku" tau sa pia!

"300 m above sea level", Chook announced while looking at his watch and continued:
"temperature 28'C. That was my body tenp, sorry sorry hahaha..."

It was chilling there, temp around 22'C i think.

We chilled out there, around 15-20 mins then off we go to continue the climb. We reached up there in some 15 minutes hike??? and the altitude was 350m by then.

The sunrise: Breath taking!

The girls.. Rachael and Shirley

Azlan + me at the side

Can u feel the breeze on top of the hill???

The leader of Kelisa Team. haha
presenting-red shirt ADRIAN SU (the cute cute one like what is being said by Gah Ling)
and Yit Sin(yellow shirt).

一登龙门身价十倍
Long Men in Datuk Cheok Temple.

Arif, Gah Ling and Jennifer. What a pose. hahahaha

I finished up 3 quarter of this plate of tauhu!!!!

Kedai Makanan Pokok Jati. The unforgotten grill fish taste! Delicious! Gogogo to Broga to take this fish. It worth your trip. it's very near to University of Nottingham! The tauke was very nice too!!!! asked us to promote his fish stall in our blog, so i did! will i get any discount for advertising???? hahaha

T.T can i have one now???

The trip continues to the Sate Haji Samuri Kajang!!!

Nini, at the end of the table wearing black shirt. Why are you so down when everyone else is laughing? chill out la... =P

BTW, we have all forgotten about the RM3 share for the lucky 4d as proposed. Kena anot? if kena already sure everyone 'am tui'..... hahaha.

QUIZ of the Broga's day: What is the tallest building in the world??

That was on the talkie during the journey. And haha, not 101 tower.

2 + 4 = 6

"Remember that? Last time the 4 of you cried just to ride on that!" My dad was pointing at the musical horse in IOI Mall.

My mum gave the most excited feedback. I took note. That's a moment when they're thinking back at the hard time they had in bringin up the 4 of us. And she looked around, the 4 of us are no more kids that's bugging them for the musical horses, fighting for candies, running for nothing etc etc.

That's a kind of relieving face i observed. I'm glad. I'm glad that we are here for her. I'm glad that I have done her proud, in some way. I'm glad too, to have seen a smiling face of her.

I jus wish to extend "HAPPY MOTHER"S DAY" to every mum on the earth, especially mine.

Oh yeah, I have got a new shoe today, thanks to my bro to have bought me that! Cheers!

Must I stop every now and then?

To carry my dream on my back

To run restlessly towards the end....


Tears, are forgotten.

Smiles, are faded.

The journey, left unseen, untouched.

I came to realise,
at the ending point,
there's nothing much but a prize.

What's more lucrative is
the greenish trees and grass that i have left behind.

But, must I stop every now and then?
