It's My Holidays!

2 days ago, we finally finished our last exam… and now, ya, NOW, we are in 2-week++ holidays!!!

Life without studies and exam's burden is definitely more than enjoyable, though sometimes I feel sien and nothing to do… But, I enjoy this kind of boredom leh…

Bout my holiday’s plan, the main one of course is my back-pack travel to England for a week… This Saturday I will be heading to Moscow and will fly to London on Sunday… The initial plan is to visit Manchester and London, and also Liverpool if possible… Huh… England, my dreamland since my childhood…

Btw, though I knew that quite a lot people here are going to England this time, but none of them put football mission on first place, so I decided to organize and plan my own trip with another friend… I plan to watch a live Premier League match at Old Trafford (Manchester United vs Portsmouth on 30 January)… Dun say I’m crazy ya… That’s my dream since 10 years ago…

Anyway, right now, I’m very boring la…
So, wanna show a picture on a special winter scene here:

There was ice forming on window though the window faces inside... but this picture was taken last week... now the weather is not that cold d...


p/s: to my devils friends, if you still don’t know but happen to read this here, feel free to visit Megastore pages on Man Utd official site and have a look on some of the displayed products there, and if you wish, I can buy for you when I visit Old Trafford. Tell me before I leave Volgo… But you have to pay me afterward la…most of the things there not cheap ah…


United We Stand

Happy Holidays!

C’est la vie

First of all, obviously this is my first post in 2008… Happy New Year!

1 week++ New Year holidays are going to end soon… Tomorrow is Russia’s Christmas and final day of holidays too… then class till Thursday and then next Monday will be the launch of the cruel final exam… and I didn’t really study much during this holiday… God bless…

I think no need to do a review bout my past 2007… Nothing much significant occurred also… Just mostly dull and plain uni life… The highlight of 2007 must be the trip to Moscow, Saint Petersburg and Doha, and of course my summer holidays back in Malaysia! Indeed, traveling makes a person have more experience and exposure…

Need to mention that since the beginning of my 1st sem of 2nd year, quite a number of unexpected but unfortunate things happened… Let alone did terribly in some tests, there were some other troubles in life, i.e. tax department blocked my parcel, problem when handling new comers and trouble when planning winter break trip… I believe many of them occurred not due to my fault, but sometimes when bad things wanna happen they just happen…

But I learnt to take up the problem independently and courageously… I realized sometimes it’s better to go try myself instead of keep relying and troubling others to settle something for you while I just waiting their help throughout the process... No regret and no any blaming if I have tried myself…

Anyway, bad things are always not welcomed… So I really wish that New Year brings a totally new, fresh and positive hope into my life…

Good thing did happen in this 2008 already… The annual VSMU International Students’ Games just ended this Saturday… I managed to win first place in table tennis competition… Largely thanks to the absent of 6th year Vietnam senior cum defending champion…

But what made me most glad is actually my achievement in badminton competition… Actually I never intended to compete in badminton, but just that day the next game after table tennis was badminton…So I pun ‘shun bian’ registered and wanna play for fun… Mana tau aid with good luck in draw in knock-out competition, I successfully defeated 4 players to enter semi final, then only lost to a Malaysian senior who is top player of our uni team and emerge as winner in the end…

Talking bout badminton, I actually got went training for 3 years since standard 4 then only I stopped training and focus on table tennis when entered high school… and I was under the same coach with Lee Chong Wei ( guess nobody don’t know him gua…) So we often met in training courts lo… he has been hyper outstanding since his high school time… Anyway I’m not close to him la... Don’t ask me to help getting his signature since I don’t even have one for myself also…hehe… However, after so many years, the feeling of making jumping smash is still indescribably ‘syok’…

Crapping too much ad… proves that I’m bored… and outside is so cold recently, around -15C in daytime… and study also mostly cant enter my brain arrrrrrrrr….

How do you feel when you are entering 21?? This number of age gives me a scary feeling… as in terms of thinking and maturity, I really don’t think that I have reached the stage that match with this age… Anyway, age is just a symbol of number and it doesn’t necessary match with anything right…

Life should be a meaningful and lively one…
Wish that my 2008 will be colourful, joyful and interesting too…

C’est la vie
That’s life!

Christmas-ed

So… time flies… it’s boxing day already…

Nothing much really exciting and interesting during this Christmas here… or can be said dull… 25 Dec is not even a public holiday in Russia, so we had to go for class also… Fortunately that Tuesday, my class just had an hour and half lecture and that’s all…

The most significant and joyful part of this Christmas for me must be our mini countdown celebration in hostel which was organized by our dear Mr. Ivan Khoo… Everyone who were invited need to prepare a small present for gift exchange… The gift exchange game's method was quite interesting too…which actually ended up rescuing me from getting a ‘plain & lousy’ gift but a nice cup… hehe ^.^

Anyway, well done to Ivan who successfully organized such event… I was actually surprised when I first stepped into the hall of that floor when I saw quite a number of people were joining…

Decoration of the celebration

All who attended


Finally, wishing my family, relatives, friends or just passer-by of my blog from any part of the world where you are living now, enjoy this special Christmas and New Year celebration time… Believe that joys and happiness are always in the end…


p/s: Nothing went wrong to our Earth, so it’s my another white Christmas this time…



~ MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR~

Recently...

Huh… I have to admit my blog is damn boring… haha…
But here I am again… Will do some update bout recent life…

This weekend was a great one again… Largely due to yesterday (Saturday) was a holiday here so I no need to attend the half-day class on that day… Holiday because there was no water supply in all university buildings… No water supply means heaters in the room can’t function, and if the class goes on, we need to study in freezing cold condition…

It’s clear that winter has come and December is always the official first month of winter… But above is just one of the very few advantages of winter… Life in winter is really a torturing one… 3 months of hard time to go…

Due to holiday on Saturday, on Friday night, my roommate and I decided to do a ‘room-warming’ session by inviting all 8 of Malaysian Chinese 2nd year guys to cook and have a dinner in our room… The dinner session turned out wonderfully… The food and drinks were great; chit-chatting was fun too… Our badge has 8 Chinese guys only, a number which is much fewer if compare to other badges, but 8 of us are good friends and always have fun together… I’m truly grateful bout this… Btw, Cooking skills of everyone keep on improving and somehow have reached near-to-fantastic level already… haha…

Deepavali celebration which took place about 3 weeks ago had been a major topic for a while… The celebration actually was very good, with both food and performance were among the best of 4 celebrations that I had experience since first year here… But the next day, about 90% of Malaysian students here suffered at least some minor diarrhea…There must be problem in preparation of food... That day I went to toilet for 2-3 times which was considered a minor one ady ( coz I didn’t eat much…:) ) That case was a hot topic and heard that university not allow Malaysian students to do such celebration again… Means that next festival, CNY we can’t celebrate d la… Good that we all Chinese no need work hard to cook and prepare for the celebration, but festivals time here must be more boring if all these celebrations are really banned…

Finally… Christmas and New Year are coming soon… On other way it means that final exams are coming soon too… Then on another positive way it means that winter sem break holidays are coming soon also… This time my badge has about 2 weeks of holidays and as usual, a lot students are planning to travel abroad… So far I not yet finalize where I will go, but on top of the list is going to a theatre, it’s not a normal theatre, but it’s the ‘Theatre of Dream’. I will try to make it lah but planning a trip especially to Europe is really not an easy one…

After all, need to focus on studies first…

Refresh...

This weekend has been a quite relaxing one… even more relax than last weekend 3-day break, as the 2nd round of concluding test of my class had ended last weekend… not much stress and burden on studying during this weekend…

Therefore, next week can be considered as beginning of another round of the study life routine here… But for sure, as boring as always…:)

It had been quite some time i can’t have a true rest… Last week 3-day break though was considerably ‘long’, but still I spent too much time on activities and entertainment, plus preparing for tests… so, this week I really give myself a time to press ‘Alt + F5 ’ in my life, as it’s certainly still not enough time to do ‘Ctrl + Alt + Del’…

Haih… Recent life here really quite empty… Every time when I want myself to give some update to my blog, brain will be blank la…

Anyway, to have a positive refresh process, wanna show something which is promising…

teng teng teng….



It’s something that I almost totally forgot already --> Gold Medal (with the certificate as the background) of Moscow Games 2007… and after around half year only we finally received the medal few days ago, great efficiency of RSMU…;)

But… Late is still always better than never right… Besides a little bit small, looked not bad the design of medal though…
