~~ aVRiL LaVigNe RoCkiNg MaLaySia~~


29 august was the day where Avril Lavigne rocks Stadium Merdeka. It was also the 1st time I’ve been to a concert. There were 7 of us. Dragging our ass to the venue at 5pm is a real pain in the ass as the public transport in Malaysia sucked like hell plus it was peak hour. We lost count of how many monorail trains we missed because of the over-crowded station in Bukit Bintang. Looking around, there are so many ang mos with disgusted looks on them. Not only them, but locals too...
Forget about the useless public transport in our country for the time being and let's focus on the talk of the day: the Avril Concert!!!! After a long wait and a free "shower" session, at around 9.25pm Avril finally appeared. The crowd went crazy with all the screaming to no end. She was a beauty. She was full of energy. She put up a killer performance. We loved her so much!!! Here goes one of the concert videos for you to savour, my dear friends.





The only thing that got all the fans frustrated was that it ended so abruptly at around 10.35pm that everyone was left in shock. Whatever it is, we still love you, Avril!!!

Rojak oh Rojak, kenapa engkau sedap~~

Being away from Malaysia all the time, there’s no doubt having some food craving crisis for those whose hobby is eating, like me. So, there’s this list I’ve made to remind others of some specially made-in-Malaysia food, which are so special that you can’t miss it whenever you come back.

Must-eat food in Malaysia:
Roti canai
Nasi lemak
Rojak
Bak gua
Laksa
Satay
Kari mee, Hokkien mee, Wantan mee, all the mees also must eat
Cha guey tiao, Cha tua pan, all Cha also must eat
Low Wong Nga choi kai
Malacca satay celup
Siam food
Bak kut teh
Dim sum

It’s THE list for the time being. I haven’t had the chance to eat everything yet, but I’m looking forward to trying my best to eat until my stomach explodes. However, sad to say, it’s only been a few days and I’ve been experiencing continuous stomachaches most probably due to bad eating habits. ;P

~home sweet home~

Finally I'm back home again... The feel good factor has been looming around me for the past few days. Although not as many friends left in this little small town, I'm glad to be back. Especially all the things that I never had the chance to do elsewhere, like driving, hanging out with friends in coffee shop and heavy-duty shopping. Well, let's hope this holiday would be an unforgettable one, mmm... only if it's in a positive way though.

I'm not dead, I'm still alive

Guess what I did for the last 3 hours? Playing poker on Facebook while reading Huining's blog. It's like, what, 4 months since i last visited her blog... It was a pleasant surprise to know that she loved Paris, as lots of my friends dream to put their feet on the French soil but they can only browse through pics from the net, rather than really experiencing it. By reading her blog, memories of my friends from my school days came back to life.
Anyway, I finally got my hands on the internet this weekend, after some touturous weeks without decent internet connection. Well, since I paid 20€ for the train to come back to Lyon, not to mention that I have to pay another amount to get back to Marseille, I had to take advantage of this. Other than that, I did some shopping, as it's the sales in France at this moment, and some online shopping too, got influenced by Chuntah with his cool shades, and seriously I'm sick of my paria GF FERRE. I bought 2 pairs of Diesel online, hope to get it before my trip back to Malaysia so that i can show off a bit ;D, it would be cool!!! Also, i belanja Chuntah and Yizhou nasi kandar, they were so kind to let me keep my stuff in their house for the summer, with the amount of my stuff (esp my shoes and clothes) it took up half their space... Well FYI, I'm actually a SDF now (in french, it means without fixed home), that's why I have to ma fan so many people.
Well, tomorrow i have to take my train back to Marseille to finish my internship. Fun it is, I find it somehow quite stressful, as acne has been popping out non-stop since the last 2 weeks, after a real long absence. Arghhh.. It's really getting on my nerves. Hmm, or maybe i should blame it on the super-duper hot weather in the south, or perhaps the over-dosed-with-dirt air in the industrial zone, or the stinky bad aura of those Marseillais? Well, gotta find a solution fast! People like me, 靠脸吃饭的 , if no solution tho gai liao...
There's just so many things I've gotta do before going back home, especially buying gifts. Sorry for those not in my list, I can't get everyone presents as it would cost me a fortune, plus i don't have much time to do all the shopping. Pay 10 lifes also not enough. Paiseh paiseh. Recently, I've been thinking about home, family and those good old days with all my friends, so for those whom i've lost contact with, just remember that I remember you...

There's just too many ups and downs in life, and one day they bring back fond memories, no matter how sweat or how bitter they might be.

My iNtErNsHiP iN VitRoLLEs

It's been ages since I last update my blog. Well, since i'm in a nicely hidden small town without water and electricity, there is, of course, no internet to chat in msn, download the latest songs, what more to update my humble little blogspot. However luck shines on me today as i found internet in the middle of this dessert so i thought it would be really nice to write something at this instant.

So, the fact is that i'm actually doing my internship as a factory worker of sort, somewhere near Marseille, in a small company of industrial painting. Fun it is, hard it is too. I've learnt a lot for the past 3 weeks and there is a week and a half left until I finish. Really looking foward to finishing my job here as it's time to go home after that. I'm not gonna tell tales about my internship and my stay here in the south of france, so till next time when I have photos to show or something written beforehand to post, happy holidays to all my friends (of course it only applies to those already on holiday), otherwise, still, stay cheerful, ok?

year 2007/2008 ---> nearing an end


Lightning speed is the expression to describe my stay in INSA. My 1st year is nearing an end. This class photo of "Group 91" sums it up.
Had a great time having everyone around.
Cheerio!!

Léo’s cum Toulouse cum airbus

Before my Barcelona trip, I made my first visit to a French friend, Léo’s house. It was situated not too far away from Toulouse, something like a French ‘kampung’. His parents were so friendly that everyone felt at home right away. I was happy to have Paul, Mah and Tuan as company to share this beautiful experience. During these few days, we kind of let the time pass, just relaxing, playing ping pong, basketball, tennis, weightlifting and reading BDs (Lanfeust). We enjoyed ourselves with good food such as barbeque (I personally loved the magret de canard the most), crêpes, cassoulet… One day trip to Toulouse was quite interesting :P (at least the redness of the city caught my attention). Unfortunately I did not take any photos.

The most exciting part was the visit to airbus as we had a chance to see how things are done the airbus way. Not to brag, but we went under the planes, touched the planes, hugged the planes, kissed the planes, we even slept with the planes… ZzZzZz… Well, of course the hugging, kissing and sleeping part = nonsense. Anyhow, it was an ideal chance to open our eyes and understand how proud it is to be able to produce such a marvel.

I place a photo of a view of La Rambla for this post.

p/s: the photo has nothing to do with the content. Don’t be tricked.

Till then, signing off, it’s the end of the holiday.
