Adverts

"In our existence, life offers us different sets of girls that come in different periods of our life.So try out every set there is." - stolen from Hilary, spoken by my dad

Have you realize the big ads above “^”, beside “>”and below me “v”? It’s just a minor side income like stock photos and stuff so don’t get mad, you know how miserable I am with out money. so please visit me daily *puppy dog eyes* or i'll get kick out and lose this cool free money making thingy... (just joking, i dont think i'll get kick out but i think they need a minimum of 20 visitors per day)

I found a nice place for breakfast, it's at Asia City mall "four season restaurant" quite pricey but the food there is nice, Hong Kong breakfast restaurant with siu mai and everything.

AARON'S BIRTHDAY TODAY! SO HAPPY BURFDAY! give him some love

Today been another heck of a hot day, woke up around 12 and had to listen to Colvin talking on the phone about all the contest he had join and how he wish to win it, he’s a good guy and stuff but a little not right in the head if you guys know him you will understand. Went gaming again at CX it’s like a daily thing now, when ever I am bored I’ll just take the bus down to Damai and game, had tea time lunch / dinner with Liang moi at Tai meng and also ice cream break. Currently doing a research on stupid / crazy / proper/ funny/ funky video game song for tomorow's beach party.

Yesterday I went to gym at the club with Vern, she spend me dinner and I though her how to Melbourne shuffle. “Imagine her shuffling! It will make your day a lot brighter” dinner was nice, chicken with cashew nuts and fries not to mention sweet pandan coconut drink. Then we went to the lounge and I had to listen to ah pak and Vern sing, the horror… That’s basically the life of the unemployed.

Waiting


Sorry for the late update, last weekend was really good minus off the entire negative stuff that happen since Friday. So a very quick update before I get on to my main point of today’s blog.

Saturday, 25th March 2007
Went for a movie outing with Malcolm, Michelle (M&M) and Liang moi. We watched Mr. Bean’s Holiday, it wasn’t to say the best but it did give me the five minute laugh weird thing is that Mr. B teddy isn’t there! At night went to help Joseph collect his pirated K750i RM400 only.

Sunday, 26th March 2007
Skipped church to meet up with Kim at Wisma to give back her hand phone cause mine was low on battery, we exchange hand phone for the night. Met up with Liang moi and the 3 of us shop for cosmetic (crap! Not again) after than met up with Michelle to help her choose her glassed and went to watch “300” with M&M. went to Jeffrey’s birthday over at his house at night, had BBQ with pizza and everything nice party. I actually manage to get tipsy there.

Waiting
Have you realize that the average human spend almost his whole life just by waiting? Since I was born I began to learn how to wait, since I was three years old waiting for my food to come, waiting for my parents to come home, waiting for my big ko ko to play with me.
Then came Kindy, I waited for my parents to pick me up, waited for nap time, waited for snack time, waited for play time, waited for power rangers to come on.
Then waiting got more serious in primary school year 1 to 4, you start waiting for the bell to ring, waiting for your teacher to come, waiting for your test result to come out, waiting for your friends to come out and play with you.
Then primary 5 and 6 came, you waited to get a scolding from your mum, you waited for the newest rock band to lunch its songs, you waited for UPSR result, you waited for the letter on which school you are going too.
Form 1 pops up and you realize you are growing up, you waited for your parents to let you go out alone, you waited to have a life of your own, and you waited for your hand phone which was to be given to every teenager.
Then PMR came out, you waited anxiously for the results, you waited for the letter which shows which stream you go to.
Form 4 to 5 was to be the best years of your secondary school life, you waited for your girl friend, you waited for your allowance money, you waited for your driving license, and you waited for SPM.
You graduate from hell, so you start all over, you wait for your chance to use the car, you wait for your boss to offer you the job, you wait for your application form, you wait for your letter of approval, and you wait for your SPM results. Your life is constantly on waiting mode and me for one is getting sick of it.

All this time I’ll always wait, wait for the person to say hi to me first, wait for the girl I like to make the first move, wait for my parents to give me allowance, wait for my friends to call me out. Well this year I think I am finally over it, I wait less. I make the first move more and I some time go for it even if it means embarrassing your self. Waiting may not always be a bad thing but it isn’t a good thing either. By waiting you can always think longer, make better decision and gather more information. But by waiting you miss the chance, you wasted your time, you lose your confidence.

I for one have experience waiting a lot, as I wait I realize a lot more and you become much more aware and by that you start to think more. Thus by thinking “will I get embarrassed? What if it’s a wrong time?” To counter this I have come out with my own solution, yes you should think before you act but remember that only consider the first though that comes up in your head, by that time I would be expecting my self to already make the move (even though I happen to hesitate some times) don’t be shy, the only person who is on the losing end is you if you wait. I would like to suggest the phrase made famous by US Marines “act first, ask later” simple and straight to the point.

Waiting for the Golden opportunity to arise? Why wait? Why don’t you act and grab that Golden opportunity your self? Acting fast is what makes you above the rest and that doesn’t mean acting rashly, always act with your brain even if it only 30% of it.

BUT THE WHOLE MAIN POINT OF ME WRITING THIS IS BECAUSE I AM DAMN TIRED OF WAITING FOR MY OFFER LETTER!

Tourism Seminar

Tourism have never been my favorite subject to study but I got to admit that it is quite fun especially after seeing all the cute girls in the seminar. My dad has been advising me to take up tourism since the day I said I wanted to do design as a courier. He still hasn’t given up on that idea yet and keeps asking me to go to this tourism thingy, so to be an obedient son I just follow.

The seminar started at 9.00am at Tang Dynasty, my dad wasn’t happy with them as they provided poor details on the venue, date and time, besides that when he contacted the Sabah Tourism Board they went totally blur on the subject. Visit Malaysia 2007 “konon” they can’t even provide service to the local community. The seminar started with them explaining the very basic of hospitality. *yawn

They though the very basic stuff from appearance, conversation and so on. So I decided to just draw and sketch randomly at the words that I hear like the word “Public Relation” I drew the initial PR and decorated it with flora design which is one of my favorite.

Then tea time, then more boring talk on body language and stuff the thing that makes me wonder is that the students of Inti, Stamford, KKC college who studies hotel management really don’t have much experience in fluent English, public speaking, and quite shy, but they are after all just foundation students.

Lunch was buffet style at the Tangs restaurant, and then the seminar continued at 2pm. The talk was finally getting interesting as they finally talk about something which I don’t know about “communication” quite funny seeing them act out the tourist and host game. One candidate is the host and one is the tourist asking for direction. Tourist: “excuzee me, I f.f.from cina want know where eat cina foooood” Host: *blur… errmmm first u go down ah, and then you walk out the big door. You see the black building ah, then the restaurant there liao.” Another Host even said “u go to centrepoint, the grey building and then turn left… errr… right… I mean, yes right then you see warisan square” (CP is grey? I tot it was white?)

Then I got to meet a group of Inti student, they were very friendly. I had a good conversation with a girl named Juliana I think, she has interest in graphic design but couldn’t do it because there’s no college that offer that course except S.I.A so she had to settle for tourism. Astagah… sad ler, so I definitely won’t screw up my chance in KL.

Goodbye

Today I depart with my laptop for maybe a month or a day or two; I am feeling so empty now luckily my dad bought me a new hard disk to transfer all my data out of my comp before it gets reformatted. The problem is that my DVD drive keeps disturbing the speaker quality when it runs a disk which makes the speaker sound broken. So now I have to use my old laptop which I won’t complain because it’s a good laptop, being able to handle my daily Dota without lag.

Today has been normal day for me, went out for lunch with mom, brought my laptop to karamunsing to get it done and meet up with Joel at Damai for a good bye drink and gaming, Tristan got another boy friend again… I wonder how she keeps up with this. Dota with your close friend sure get funny even thought we fought against AI version and playing Battlefield 2, a two man team against thirty bot reminds me of “the 300” fought to the very breath.

"Becoming a woman’s friend and confidant is not going to get you into an intimate relationship. If you haven’t gotten the girl within a reasonably short period of time, chances are you won’t ever get her. She’ll end up confiding to you about the sexual adventures she’s having with someone else"
- Hilary’s blog

This I got to agree half and also disagree, yes getting to know her for long may ruin you chance for an intimate relationship but knowing some one for a reasonably short time will make it worse in the long run. Always remember that the long you stay with a person the stronger a bond becomes which makes it even easier for that woman to fall for you. “Avoid becoming her best friend” always give her the impression that you are a guy who cares a lot.

I am nervous about my application into The One Academy, I am not sure will they accept me or not and my mum been complaining about the expensive fees. If I fail this, I am dead for ever because my mom won’t be paying for my whole tuition fees, from third semester onwards my sis is going to pay for me I think. Crap

Went to try out a few new cafĂ© at Asia city mall, there’s this herbal tea shop which is reasonable ok but the pricing is too expensive. RM1.80 for ha for chao is just over priced trust me, the price u see at yen ai at lintas isn’t normal, I can get it for below RM1 for a home made one and RM1.50 at the regular Kopi shop.

Streamyx was so busy yesterday that I couldn’t go online, this is for yesterdays update. I finally registered for my college at The One Academy http://www.toa.edu.my/ with Mr. Teo, ex SM all saint principal very cool uncle he’s doing KBU college, Monash Uni, HELP Uni, Sunway College and lots more, want his contact number?

I registered at Burger King cause I was craving for onion rings, then went gaming like usual after that had a long walk around Damai with Darryl and dinner at tai meng.

I have the sniffles today so I think I am going to sleep more this few days.

I woke up at 1p.m so I miss my whole morning cause I was playing Yuri Revenge last night. Went to Damai for my Saturday gaming session then youth, today we had visitors from Sarawak a big group of them like 30 plus. We had great worship and I think we need more games, its getting boring at youth with out games.

Crazy People, Crazy Day


My breakfast in the morning
Pigs and Spiders do not make a good story! Today Hilary came over for a fitting session in my room again and we headed down to Damai to get his hair cut, I mean trim, more like a snip. After that we headed down town to join Tammi and her sister, Lyn and her sister, Sharon and her sister. See the similarity there? They all have sister! Haha and for your knowledge Tam and Lyn are both my adik angkat.

We went to watch Charlottes web, it’s quite obvious me and Hilary got bored by it because it’s a kids show. Little girl meets pig, pig get save, little girl takes care of pig, pig meets spider, spider save pig, and spider dies, pig stays alive, pig meets daughters of the little spider the end, typical children movie.

After that we went around and Tam spent me Deja Blue after I kept making a fuss of her not being good to me hehehe. After that Lyn brought us to eat Scoop at Warisan again, *yummy ice cream day. My sisters, not a very good pic, but the ice cream is in

Rush home after Joseph called me out for movie with Su, Lowa, and Annabelle had to rush to get ready. Annabelle was hyper as usual and she crack her hand phone screen so she was like bugging us so much until we brought her to the shop to get it repaired.

We ended up not watching movie because Joseph mix up the time between the show of “the last kiss” and the “300” astagah! Finally we decided to head down to Dongongon, Krishnan for Rice and Curry, picked up Carol on the way there. We had lots of fun especially with Annabelle being hyper as usual. Krishnan is still considered the best North Indian Fish Head Curry Restaurant to me. *I FORGOT TO BRING DOWN MY CAMERA FROM THE CAR WHEN WE ATE IN KRISHNAN! Crap.

The 3 lovely girls that Syok Sendiri behind the car, there's many more but i am scared your eyes cant take the horror. >.<

Pizza Hut

Its pizza day woke up around 11.30am and my mom called me out for lunch at pizza hut. Nth special actually it’s just that we haven’t been eating lunch together since I finish my form 5. Pizza hut seems to be getting from worse to worse daily; we ordered the salad, regular Hawaiian and garlic bread with soup. The salad had the left over food taste where u keeps it in the fridge for the night and the garlic bread seems to be stale. But over all we did have a good lunch since I complain to the manager and she got us fresh salad.

Gaming at CX “again” stupid noobs should stay out of CX they ruin every game I play by being dim witted morons. Still my Techie pawns your game.

C.E.R.F Camp

This years March camp was a little boring, we did have fun, we did learn new things, and we did build up relationship. But for me something was missing, some thing which makes all camp fun, what is it? That’s the atmosphere; this camp didn’t have much of the atmosphere for me so it was pretty dull and boring. Plus the banana boat this time sucks real bad, all they did was make us drop once and it wasn’t the best drop also.

Canon Balling from the jetty, kayak saving, volley balling, string burning and learning gin ramie (I think that’s how u spell it) been fun but I would rather go back to my normal life which is behind the computer and sleeping on my comfortable bed.

Everyone’s so nervous about SPM result, I am quite happy about this day cause it brings old school friends back together asking the most normal question and supporting each other all the way through the sweat breaking moment. Besides that I am also happy that I actually achieve my SPM goal which is five A (thanks to Mahlau for reminding me) I got 3 A1 in English for Science and Technology (EST), Pendidikan Seni Visual (arts), English Language. 2 A2 for Bahasa Melayu and surprisingly for General Science.
B for Math, E for Economics and C for everything else which I miss out. Quite good since I wasn’t expecting grades like this.

Congrats to all my friends out there esp. those who got straight A’s.

The 300


Today was quite a busy day for me, was suppose to be working but I ran off half way because had a meeting with a friend of mine and that I told Sharon that I would give her a crash course in art exam. Me and Joseph went down to Dongongon around 11a.m to get the sago worm, they look really cute even thought its gross not to mention the smell sickens me and to think that I ate it raw last year!

After that I went to coffee bean again to meet up with Hilary and Sharon, enjoyed a cup of Vanilla ice blended there. Drinking at coffee bean sure is eating up my wallet, I gave a complete crash course to Sharon even though I didn’t know how from the basic of drawing to the uses of different media and the tips and tricks of cheating in art and positioning.

After that I went to gym with Hilary, we shuffled at the audience sitting in font of the tennis court and gave him sum teaching again, after that I went gym for like five minutes and got bored and went down to the squash court to practice my shuffle alone until Vern pops up and I ended up giving her lessons on shuffling also.

The second best part about today is during the drive to the cinema and away from the cinema. We were like five minutes late and Joseph was speeding all the way down form Beverly and manages to make it to the movie just when it was in the intro. We watched the 300 which is a movie about 300 Spartans against an army of a million Persian. Taken from a comic book which is based on the Greek history with a little bit of editing. The best action movie of the year and it actually made senseless killing movie look WOW!

On the way back we went to Foh Sang to eat “san yuk mee” at the middle shop which is now known as the middle shop on the right because they shift from the left to the right… like so….

Coffee bean my new school

Wasn’t today productive, I almost froze my self to death in coffee bean after sitting in there for five hours drinking mocha ice blended. On the other hand I manage to learn a lot of stuff from a photoshop tutorial, just like attending class except it cost like rm15 for WiFi and the mocha ice blended plus I pay like 150% more attention then I did in normal classroom. *hooray for coffee bean

I learn advance vectoring, photo editing, touch up, hot keys, template design, button design and tab design in like five hours. And the end came out to this, btw big shout out to Hilary for passing his driving test.

My very first web template could also be the future of DC template.

New Stickers

The terrible heat wave continue for another two more days and I think my air-con is over heating from running like 24/7. Yesterday didn’t manage to blog cause some one made me terribly blurred and had to help my dad complete his project portfolio. We cleaned up Glory hall on Sunday for the new carpets which is going to be installed in; hopefully I can see it on Wednesday when they are installing it. During the clean up we manage to flour Melvin with flour, he totally look like a ghost and he counter attack with a jug full of water.

I think I am going to catch a flu again… damn weather cant it just stay raining everyday. Today went to karamunsing with Vern and walk round and round and round and round and ended up buying nothing. I actually wanted to get my laptop fix and buy a new mouse. My laptop’s DVD drive have been making weird noises when it runs a disk which spoils the whole speaker so now have to send it to Kuala Lumpur to get the drive replace with a new one.

Came home and the power was out so we went out to eat dinner, it was good if it wasn’t for the lousy food. Please do not go to restaurant K.L Lee, their vegetable is over cook and rice is so damn expensive not to mention the satay is cold and the “lobak” is over fried.
Beside that I manage to replace my old hand carve sticker on my laptop with a new printed sticker.

Killing heat

What a hot hot hot day, so hot that it made me lose my mood not to mention the boring bengkel. Went there my self and I was so lucky that I brought my earphones so that I could listen to my radio on the hand phone. Besides that, I fell asleep in class *as always! The workshop was pretty boring, they thought us everything we learn in KHB during form 3 or was it form 2… aint sure it’s been like so long ago.

I learn hw to drive up hill when your car suddenly stalls! *amaze! The other student was a girl and she was like “omg omg omg!! I don’t dare!” lucky our tutor is a good one, good old Mr Chong he even spent us lunch.

Got piss off during my only one hour of gaming at CX cause some players didn’t know the meaning of backing up. Then dinner, which I made Darryl angry…. *srry…
Well youth wasn’t the best… I was in charge of youth challege today, wasn’t really up for the challenge to lead it cause was quite tired after the workshop or mindless staring. I still manage to pull up the face and lead it quite well I recon. “honey if u are going to marry me, please smile” that’s the phrase for the game, get as many wife or husband under three minutes.



*air-con..... thank God for it

Theory begone Now!

I finally pass! As people say, third time’s the charm. I really got to thank my friend Hilary, he really help me this time. Cheating on your theory test in road safety! Priceless!
We went to town together catch a quick breakfast and walk down to Rilek centre to under go the test. I got to admit, really blur as it was a Friday morning and hell knows when I took my last test (should be a year ago) and I didn’t even study for it. I took the tryout just to be safe, first test “okiez…. What’s this about again? Oh yeah… Theory on road safety. (Tick) = Failed 80% *crap Second test “I think I am getting the hang of it, hmm what does this do? (Tick) (Tick) (Tick) = Failed 63% *wtf?! Third test “arghh…. So tired, eyes… burning…. (Tick) (Tick) = Failed 74% *improving.

Got so tired I went straight for the real test at the next room. Oh boy… I was so nervous! My name got called out and I was sent to computer number 3. So it went like this (tick) (tick) (tick) *takes out hand phone*

Soo: Bagainmanakah anda hendak memberhentikan kenderaan anda dgn selamat jika brek rosak?

Hilary: Perlahankan kenderaan dgn menukar kpd gear rendah dan tarik brek tangan beransur-ansur

As Digi said “The power’s in your hands” SMS rocks! After that we went to centre point to catch a movie “Norbit” the horror and tragic comedy of an Eddie Murphy gone totally wrong. After that I went for a second movie with Darryl “A wonderful life” Cantonese movie about a thunder god who went down to earth to help a mortal, quite a nice comedy and stupid actions. Went for dinner with her parents at Ocean Seafood restaurant, I have to say their food really come in small portion now a days and it was my first time eating lobster.

Went home around 11, got online Elaine and Bev suddenly pop up. Counseled the two blur girl and gave them a personality quiz which my dad force me to do before applying for collage. Bev is just so blur! Hahaha nice meeting her though, friendly person who I suggest taking socializing work.






this was a desperate act, sending MMS to him to comfirm the answers.

want to take it? contact me for the Q and A


By the way, i got 90% so i manage to pass :)

I love being employed "again"

I am back on the job again! After a month break from designing at home and at church office, my life was pretty dull. So now I am back at my part time job of doing maintenance, designing and office boy duty. Isn’t working at church just fun?

Good news is that JAM poster and fliers are out, I got to admit it really doesn’t impress me since it was done under like 20 min after 2 hours of deciding and stupid placement of the pictures. Just placing the pictures, cropping and satirizing it to a nice color isn’t easy. I really got to get my hands on Photoshop CS2 a.s.a.p. my work wasn’t done to perfection this time as they were rushing me to faster finish it by 3 so they can have it printed and cut for this coming Saturday. At the end they kept saying how nice it is and stuff. All I could say was “stop adding sugar already! I like a little sugar but that’s just way too much until it totally sucks” (if only I dare say that out) all I did was put a little smile.

I got skipped by Vern today at gym! You owe another dinner now, work out on the tread for 30 minutes, kept pushing my self even thought it hurts to run for that long but in the end I felt pretty good as a good sweat just makes my day. Besides that I found a nifty little spot below the gym where I can practice my shuffle, wooden floors with a reflecting glass all you need is a woofer and some speakers not to mention a little dim lighting.

About Me

Born in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah unlike the whole Soo family. YES! Unlike my sister and parents who are born in West Malaysia. My dad’s from Melaka, mom from Ipoh and I have no idea where’s my sis born… I am the only person in my whole family that is born in East Malaysia. I am your typical quite kid who can be emo or stupidly crazy at times. besides that I am a very forgetful person. I love design anything that attracts the eye’s of this generation, past and future is loved by me. currently in The One Academy doing my Foundation year.I don’t have a very complicated life as most may think all I do is sleep, eat, and numerous boring activities which I find quite entertaining to my self. Love to start projects, reading real life story, gaming, slow mind boggling stuff like chess and strategic games not to mention I really despise chili! (Keep that in mind)
