FIRST IN TANJONG BUNGAH NIGHT MARKET

First time, yeah, this is the first time i've been to Tanjong Bungah Night Market. Please don't laugh at me because i am not staying near that area. I used to go Batu Lancang Night Market when i was small, and i've been Jelutong Night Market once, and that made me scared of night markets because i couldn't even walk in the night market. So, this was a good experience indeed, the road is wider, and there is less people compared to as what i've expected it to be.
Anyway, the most enjoyable thing was we invited our American friends to join us for a walk in the night market! You know, before i met them, when i saw others walking with those Americans or Canadian, i was so jealous. They might be very different from us, i thought, and i am really curious to know about their culture, so do the same to them. So, now, i got to know from Anna that they don't have this night market in America. It has been nice talking to them, they get to know us more, and i get to know them more as well.

So, we had our dinner. They all still went for Char Koay Teow, which is their favourite. I ordered Loh Mee, and i let them taste a little bit, so did San Yew who let them taste the pork blood. They tasted Laksa as well, Penang's famous noodles, but they didn't really like that. Actually i don't eat Laksa as well, so i quite understand. =D

After eating, we had a short stroll in the market, before we bid farewell. We also met Rebecca, Hanna, and Alisa, before we met Mr Russel and Mr Pagee. It was so nice to see everyone in the night market. They really love night market, i guess.

Anyway, we had fun. Anna and others were heading to Batu Ferringgi and we were going back to study. It's still a sad thing to know that they are going back next week. Anyway, we actually took some pictures but they're not with me. Sometime later i might post a link to Anna's FB. =D

Finally, we've GRADUATED!

It sometimes is not convincing to say WE'VE GRADUATED by only passing the exams without having an actual ceremony. So, after 26 June 2010, we can finally be proud to say that I'VE GRADUATED!
Okay, don't be shocked, it's just diploma. However, this was the first time we attended such a grand ceremony of graduation. We were so excited until we couldn't sleep well on the night before. Anyway, it was a rushing time when we reached the college until we marched into the hall, because we've to dress up the gown properly, pin it properly, and make sure our make-up was still in good condition, and rush to the assembly point for lining up, waiting to march into the hall. I felt very lucky to have my shoes after i experienced this, because although i hate it so much, it still served me very well. It was soft and that's why I didn't feel hurt even i have to walk here and there. So, I would like to say sorry to my dear shoes, I will love you starting from now. =D
Anyway, the ceremony started with SOT receiving ...(dunno what it called x.x), followed by Doctor Ng. Yen Yen's speech. I dun really know how to spell her name. =D She delivered a meaning speech, and after that, it's our time to go up stage.

These were taken by dad.

After the ceremony, we took photos crazily, with friends, with lecturers, etc. I actually saw someone that i don't want to see. And i saw other primary school friends, which they stood beside her, and so i didn't even say hi to them. I felt very annoying, and i also felt very wasteful to say hi to them, since they are the same GANG, I DON'T EVEN WANT TO LOOK AT THEM.
Anyway, Alex still remembered me, shocking.

These are the photos :

With family : 

With sis (demanded by her)

With Friends : 

With lecturers :

It was a wonderful memory. =D

One day before Convocation

We were so excited to meet with Ee Leng! Haha. So when we arrived to college this morning, it's quite expected to be A LOT OF GRADUATES in the foyer. So we found her in a glance, because she was just standing at the center. We chatted for a while before we went into CA for the briefing. The briefing is, well, not very informational, but for the first experience of attending this ceremony, it is quite important to know all the things briefed. The most confusing part will be the graduation gown. MY GOD, we didn't even know how to wear it although there was demonstration! Besides, the walking direction of the graduates while receiving scroll on the stage was also very confusing, but since we have people directing us, so i didn't bother much about it. Anyway, it was exciting. We can't wait for tomorrow. Anyway, we brought Ee Leng to Ms. Monica, and she was so happy to see her. Ms Monica said Ee Leng is much prettier, and Ee Leng complaint to her. Until now i am still thinking that how good will the situation be if Ee Leng is with us in Penang and we do assignments together. =D

Anyway, it was happy to see her again. I guess we will be enjoying in Steamboat House tomorrow night, though Anna's gang and Ms Monica can't make it. =(

Packed again

I am feeling packed again! I've actually come out with a full list of my semester plan, which basically when you focus on the whole list, it is not packed; but if you focus just on WEEK 10, you know the reason i am going crazy!
Okay, let me explain more. On week 10, we'll start our individual presentation, which i think will last until Week 11. Well, i am hoping not to present on Week 10 but it's so hard to predict - we can't read Ms Monica's mind. Anyway, this is the first one. The second shock would be DM test II, which the date is not confirmed yet. The third shock is the dateline for MIS Final Report, and seriously, i still don't know about the date of oral presentation! Gosh, this is terrible, i hope it won't be on a bad week. The fourth is Audit Role-play which is on Wednesday. PACKED!
It is so packed in the sense that those 'shocks' require a long preparation before the dateline. So i am planning to complete my English presentation as soon as possible, hopefully in the coming week or another; MIS Final report should also be prepared before the week of submission, i guess it should be ready in the beginning of Week 9.
Hence, we left Week 9 to prepare for our Audit Role-play. I don't know why but i have a feeling that this role-play will really cause us to spend a lot of time on it, and the preparation would not be so smooth which we have to make corrections again and again. Probably due to the experience of English Role-play, which we have been putting a lot of effort into it, this Audit Role-play is something very difficult for us.
Anyway, difficult doesn't mean impossible. So we are going to complete all beautifully, and now we must tell ourselves that WE CAN DO IT. =)

FANTASTIC ROLEPLAY!!! as well as fantastic presentation and test =D

E-Team

Nowadays the world is changing - everything has been moved to electronic version, or we should say, "electronized" (sorry i created this word myself XD). So i seriously think that sharing files and docs online eases our life a lot. Manual process really drives me crazy because it is so inconvenience. Every time we have to ask "Hey, who has taken this?" "Can i request for update - the docs are now with who?" Oh my, this is crazy.

So i've made a decision - i am going to train you guys to learn how to share, ONLINE. Please make use of this INTERNET thing - it is a waste if we forgone the benefits it brings, as it seems to be so powerful. Since Mr Khor is also encouraging us to go ONLINE for discussions, why not we also try ourselves? =D

See? It's so easy - just a few arrows. =D

Packed

Packed! Feel packed. But be noted, is PACKED not STRESSED. This is what we call study life, and this is the reason other colleges are not in my concern, especially PTPL. Well, for me, study life is just to do with study. So i like it. I hope i can cope with it so that the PACKED will not become STRESSED.

You know what? I have actually come out with the plan to study for test - what to study and when to study. This is amazing. I never never do this in diploma life. The most i have done in diploma life is arranging timetable for the subjects - i never plan WHAT TO STUDY. Maybe because adv dip subjects cover too many things - the scope is too wide. So basically we have to use application strategy - knowing the basic and twist and turn to suit the questions. Oops, i should not be talking 'bout this - this is so PERSONAL. =D

Okay, so my life is really, really packed! I can't even miss a second because i will sure regret about it! So, i have to start working right now. See ya. =D

Workaholic!! XD

Before going to college

Well, i didn't feel stressed but relax. Surprised? If i were to write the title only, you might think that i am going to write something like "I am tensed up! I don't know what i am doing!" Right? Haha then you are so wrong. In fact, i also feel weird about this. Advance diploma seems to be more challenging and the probability of being "STRESSED" is higher, but things turn out to be different after experiencing it. This is good, isn't it? I am more likely to enjoy the whole semester rather than being driven crazy by it. I guess this is really good, and it is quite unexpected. Maybe i didn't expect much from myself after entering advance diploma since i know it is tough from long time ago. I really hope that it is something enjoyable, as study life should be in this way.

Okay, well, i am going to college right now. I am enjoying. =) See you.

MEMORABLE MOMENT

I never thought that i would celebrate my birthday in Sakae Sushi. Thanks to all the beloved friends to create surprise for me! There is too much to say - it's in fact ENDLESS!
This is totally surprise. Though before 3 June i heard people whispering but it still did not become my concern. Gino even went out to discuss with Sok Aun, leaving me at home, but the worst is i believe his excuse - MAN TALK. Next, they persuaded me hard, just to "invite" me out on Thursday night. You know what - I kept wondering why must 5 of us go to buy 5 FILES together?? It is so RIDICULOUS! Anyway, since they were so sincere, i finally promised. And here came the shock and surprise. First of all, San Yew directly headed to Sakae Sushi once i met him, which is different from normal. Next Sin Yee, Hong Lean, Joo Tian and Chee Sing were already waiting in SS. This is definitely not coincidence, though they said so. Anyway, i don't care, i just want to eat. So after dinner, the cake came, and finally everything was clear. This is my birthday celebration!!!! Surprising, right? =)

Pictures will be uploaded later, since i was not the camera lady. =)

Big thanks to all of the people involving! You delighted my big day! =)

OFFICIALLY BACK

Okay, i am officially back. HAHA I am going crazy, am i? Be honest, i also don't know what i am writing in this moment. Anyway, what i am trying to say is i am going to share what i have done in this past 4 busy weeks.
Just in the 1st week of advance diploma, we have been briefed about various assignments and activities which we need to complete or carry out in the 1st sem of advance diploma. So, the expectation of "BUSY" has been entered into my mind, and i am REALLY busy in every single day.
We would have our role-play on week 4, so we started preparing since week 1. I don't really understand why some people can only start CONCERNING about it in WEEK 3! I really DON'T UNDERSTAND because we were like mad people in these 4 weeks - doing a lot of research to dig as much information as we can to make our meeting "alive" - look real. So when i saw them playing facebook i was like "Why the xxxx are you so FREE!" Luckily, our meeting turned out to be very well. I am thankful to everything - Ms Monica, my teammates, my mom, etc who always bear with me when i am really MAD. If you know my attitude, you will know how scary i am when i am really MAD. =D I was so glad to hear "excellent" from Monica, though she may not mean it.
Also, we have to present our answers in AFA tutorial class in the week 2. This seemed easy, but when we presented we discovered that it was not as easy as what we thought. Hence, we did not really do well in first presentation, and i hope it will be better in next presentation, which is on week 5.
What else made us busy? Hmm... DM requires us to prepare the tutorial answer before our class because the lecturer will ask questions, and this contributes to our coursework marks! So this is SERIOUS! Audit, though, nothing to do by now, but it is also SERIOUS to do revision 'cause Audit syllabus is TOO MUCH! Last but not lease, MIS gives us new case study every week so it keeps us to face challenge every week! So it is also SERIOUS! In conclusion, EVERYTHING IS SERIOUS. ADVANCE DIPLOMA IS SERIOUS.
Anyhow, i am trying my best to cope with it. I never imagine that i would not want to go out for dinner just to stay at home for revision! And now i am doing it.
But one thing is - I am really happy to meet these people and become one of the team. What makes me even delighted is that we are TEAMMATES but not GROUP MEMBERS. There is a difference. =D And, yeah, i appreciate all the moment to be with you all! I thought, at lease, the God gave me something out of nothing.
So this is my life in these few weeks. In fact, it is too much to be written down. This is, perhaps, just a draft.
