Hari Citra Budaya

This program successfully ended on 28 Oct… and I think everybody enjoyed it very much… It was a very good program…knew a lot of Malaysia culture…

Every class was divided into 2 groups… 1 group did the exhibition while the other group did the performance…In the morning, it was the exhibition… Each group did different theme of culture… My class, Group B did Permainan Tradisional… Many Chinese friends wore Malay costumes… very nice-looking though… We had great time strolling from a store to the other store… and I liked Group D’s adat-adat tradisional and the group that did traditional food… Group D, the group that won the champion for exhibition in the end, did a lot things to attract visitors, such as lucky draw, quiz and even giving ‘ang pau’! and Peter managed to get a small hamper from lucky draw through some ‘tactic’…

In the afternoon, it was the show-time for performances…As I told earlier, my group performed Dikir Barat, and unlukily… my group was the first group to perform… the other groups did drama, cultural dances, boria…. Finally, Group C who did the drama of ‘History of Mooncake Festival’ emerged as champion for performance… disappointedly, my group juz managed to get consolation prize ( each group will be given consolation prizes if unable to get top 3….)

I really very disappointed after the result was announced… and till now, I still feel dissatisfy when thinking of it…I don’t know why I can’t accept the result coz normally I really don’t mind much bout the result after the performance... maybe this time is the third successive time after orientation and Gema Merdeka that my group can’t get any good result for performances… or perhaps disappointed of my group didn’t prepare as hard as possible this time…We never give it a great challenge to win at least top 3!!! I wished to help a bit but nothing was able to be helped by me… I don’t know bout Dikir at all…

Everytime we juz could watch friends from other classes celebrate for the victory…They won because they really did much effort… but where was the serious effort from our class???


Here is a Hari Citra Budaya photo:

Paradise at Cendana Hostel...

I m now blogging at friends' room... The room that occupied by 5 Chinese(Samuel, Yit Yung, Terence, Ting Teck Pei and Billy) and a Sarawak bumiputra... The only room that don't have any malays...and Recently they juz set up the internet using wireless router... This should be the only house at Cendana Apartment that have Internet... ( Suprise rite?!! Though here got so many residents, but there are no fixed telephone line here!!!)

**While i m online now, other friends are playing UNO cards...and they r in crazy mode already!!!)
Since I don't bring laptop to here... So, currently i m using Eddy laptop to online... I plan to bring laptop here next semester... and join them to use internet and share the fee...

Now, most of the time at night i will be at this room(1-3-39)... Besides got internet here, here is the place that chinese here gathering.... (coz no any malays at this room ma...) It is so fun gathering at here!!! Got many facilieties-- besides the facilities given by JPA( tv, washing machine and dryer), got equipment that bought by those 5 chinese friends( refrigerator, rice cooker, bread toaster, etc.)... Eddy and I has labelled here as 'PARADISE'! We even plan to search for a suitable steamboat soon, then all chinese can gather together and eat!!!) Wasai!!!

Tomorrow is our Citra Budaya Day... and I will involve in the performance... know wat's my group going to present?? It's DIKIR BARAT, from Kelantan traditional culture!!! HaHa!!! so glad that can have new experience in this kind of malay's culture... though the training before was so hard, had to practise under hot sun and for us as chinese, didn't know anything bout this dikir barat...everything have to learn.... But today's training, it was so interesting...finally i realise the fun of Dikir Barat!!! Our performance improves much as a member of college's Nasyid team emerged to give us some advice and teaching... the effect was outstanding...

The performance will be given mark and it will included in the grade of this semester's Co-Coriculum...Hope I will enjoy this show... and hopefully, I will able to take some photo of my appearance and performance tomorrow through friends' digital camera and put it on my blog...( I don't bring camera to here!)

Unexpected Outing

Eddy wanted to go to KL Sentral to take something from his brother at KL Sentral today... At last minute,I decided to accompany him... and Andy joined us too... Despite accompanying him, the main reason both of us followed eddy were we wanted to use it as a reason to skip1-hour meaningless Minggu Citra Budaya presentation practice( bout what are we perform, i keep it as secret first...will reveal it soon...)....Besides, we wanted to have a different taste's meal at other place instead of same food at campus...

After Eddy finished his meeting with his brother, it was juz 12pm...and we planned to catch 2.30pm college bus to go back to hostel...so, it seemed like we still have plenty of time to other things.... Then, Andy suggested to have meal at Subang Jaya... Rupa-rupanya he planned to meet her Miri friend, Phebe, who is studying at Taylor Collge...(We know a lot bout this girl ady though we never saw her before coz Andy is indeed a super talkative person... he has told almost all of his personal life at Miri, including his friends to us...) We believed on him that everything would go on smoothly and manage to catch 2.30pm bus... So, we took the commuter to Subang Jaya...

At Subang Jaya commuter station, we took a mini bus... Our destination was Sri KL bus stop... But then big problem occured... we were unfamiliar bout Subang Jaya, didn't know where was that Sri KL locate... and as a rusult, we missed it... Luckily, the bus took a turn back after stopping at Sunway Pyramid... and we finally succeed to reach our destination... But lots of time had wasted... we reached there at bout 1.45pm... I knew that if we continued the plan, surely we wouldn't reach college and catch the bus on time... but Andy insisted to meet Phebe ( his another girl friends???)... crazy la...

We ate fried rice at a restaurant near Taylor... and Andy was enjoying himself... but at that time, Eddy was already in fire...his face certainly showed he was very very angry... and finally, we started to go at 2pm... and surely, it was impossible for us to catch the bus... we waited at bus stop for quite a long time, nearly 15 minutes, before a bus to commuter station appeared... Since confirm we would miss the bus and have to take the cab to go to hostel from batu tiga commuter station, so we decided to stay longer at Subang Jaya, spent some time at Carefour... But tat time, Eddy was like a Gunung Berapi yang sudah meletup sedikit, and would be exploided more terriblely anytime...He remained quiet and controlled himself not to exploid....

After strolled for an hour and half at Carefour and bought a few fruits and other stuff... we began our way back...
and finally we reached Cendana at 4.30pm... have to mention, we got a RM17 taxi from Batu Tiga to Cendana!

We didn't plan to go out this saturday... Everything were unexpected... but it seemed like it was quite unhappy outing for us....especially Eddy, whose initial plan was juz go to KL Sentral.

WELCoME!

MUSiC!!!

Afternoon, Yi Wee suddenly asked me am I considering to buy and bring a keyboard to Cendana hostel… He said he heard the rumour bout it… but I think I never said such thing before… Don’t care bout why such rumour will appear … but I think that bringing a keyboard here is a very good suggestion… I rarely, very rarely play piano since studying here…so does Yi wee, I think… I have a keyboard at home… but it’s currently used by my aunt who stay together with my family…She uses it to teach her singing classes….

Really long time didn’t play piano for hours…..Since we decide not to attend the church Youth Fellowship on Saturday night due to transport inconvenience and time is too pack for us to do revision and homeworks….this has decreased my chance to touch piano at here… though sometimes I will attend the Sunday service, but normally we don’t have free time to play piano or other instruments… However, it’s really too inconvenience if we attend fellowship…will feel very sorry to uncle who have to fetch us twice a week from hostel to church which takes time around 30 minutes …besides, we will have to reach hostel at over 12 midnight if we attend fellowship…too tired…
(I am not a Christian la…but a lot of Chinese friends here, I think mayb nearly 80% are Christians, so I follow them to church to know more bout God…till now, what Christianity impressed me much are It emphasizes on Love relationship among humans, care on others…and Christians music are very nice…such songs are indeed very suitable for religious usage as music is very effective in giving peace in mind of people, improving self-belief and confidence and so on…
-Questions arise in my mind now: are Christians more brilliant in studies?? And more lucky enough to be chosen as JPA scholars?? Here, really most JPA Chinese scholars are Christians!)

After coming to Shah Alam, I juz often listen to music…mostly listen to fm radio through my handphone and listen to cd or mp3 with my Discman…and mostly listen to Chinese pop song and sometimes…English…and recently, begin to indulge in listening to a few malay songs…influenced by Malays housemate la…but some songs really nice though mostly are very noisy… ) Luckily, here still have many friends who listen to Chinese pop song too…so can chat on this topic…

My sister told me that she has photostated a latest book on Chinese pop song piano score… got piano score of latest songs from Michael Guang Liang, Lee Hom and David Tao… Wahseh!... so eager to play during holidays beginning in the end of next month…)

ToP Up... Is it EaSY??!!

This afternoon, I wanted to top up maxis credit of my handphone... I bought a RM10 top up ticket from a machine at college and followed the process to top up..as usual...

But this time, my hp screen appeared "Maaf, perkhidmatan ini tidak dapat dijalankan"... then, I use calling method...to 122...the voice of phrase above appeared...wah...I became panic...I had to contact the MAXIS customer service officer...That officer ask for my top up ticket number and my hp number... And he checked that my maxis number had been locked by MAXIS... Know why??


The reason is I had typed in incorrect top-up ticket number for over 3 times... A Memory came out from my mind... about a week ago, I was in library and felt boring... then I collected a used top-up card on the table... My curiousity led me to try to top up my hp by using the numbers that near to the pin number on that used card...example: if the numbers on the card was 1553 4334 3645 30...then i typed 1553 4334 3645 40...and so on... dream of being lucky to get free top-up... But the fact was... it din happen...and should be impossible to happen (actually is possible...U have to guess correctly the pin numbers of new top-up tickets in shops that haven't sold out...Imagine how hard it is to guess all 14 pin numbers correctly... the possibilities is juz too little...tat's what the officer told me when i asked him...) ... that time, wei han was beside me and he tried it too... so... he have to do the same steps as what I had done in order to top up his credit...haha

The officer told me that I would able to top up my credit after 2 hours.... So after 2 hours, no problem for me to top up already!It was juz my sense to do experiment... an experience lo...

2nd BLoG

Welcome to my new BLOG!!! Hope u will know my gerak-geri more from this blog…

Here are the reasons why I change my blog from friendster.to blogger:
1) Frienster blog will send notification e-mail to all my friends in my network when I update my blog… I don’t like this… Feel my blog will loss its mysterious sense…Besides, when I edit my friendster blog, even juz change a word, e-mail will be sent too…very irritating… This is the main reason…
2) Blogger can set up Chatter Box at side bar…I think this is very fun…My blog’s viewers can chat at there…
3) In Blogger, I can set my post’s date and time myself…This is very useful and convenient for me as I often type my post in hostel using my housemate’s pc that bring from his kelantan home and save it to diskette to post to my blog when I have the chance to online at college… I can set the exact date and time that I finish typing the post…
4) Can have some motion or movement of words on blogger’s blog…
5) The address of blogspot is much shorter than friendster blog’s…
6) Blogspot is nicer and classy!!!

For new user of blogger, especially for those who don’t know computer programming… initially it’s a bit difficult to manage the blog in order to make it nice... Have to take some time and get help from blogger’s friends to explore it… That’s my experience and here, I specially thank Poh Wei and Peter who give me some help when I set up my blogger….
