BLITZGLEN

Heeeee…has it been two weeks? yeah, i guessed thats how long since i last blogged. I was very busy, but I would say that it’s one of the most happening weeks since i left IMU in january! Let’s see…

Good Friday sees the conception of my baby toshiba at the Kuching PC Fair held at the Pertama Car Park on the 6th of April. That very day, after reading the morning paper, i was rather determined thats the lappie that i’d want…a good deal for its price. mind u, it’s not that easy to buy an electronic gadget such as a lappie…it involves alot of surveying and dilemma. haha. temptations from other brands such as dell, HP, and acer are hard to be ignored! their specs are better at a lower price, argh, but what the heck….finally its toshiba satellite M100-1311E for me. Down with the deposit…

specs:

1.6Ghz core2duo, 1G ram, 100G hdd, integrated graphics, pre-installed windows vista home, dvd-burner, bluetooth, fingerprint reader (which i hav yet to use), anti-spill resistant keyboard and 2yrs international warranty.

And the birth of my lappie was the day after in Compumart in Wisma Saberkas. Although i initially thought that there were some problems with the mic which made me to bring my baby back to the shop, it turns out to be some config prob. Now, its fit and healthy and im blogging using it…haha

Then on that Sunday itself, i had to board my plane to KL to settle my letter of good conduct and also to bring back my properties that still sleeps on dear poh peng’s ground! haha, thanx to him (and also his fellow housemates) for allowing me to keep my stuff there for almost 3-4mths. and there are still some more left there for me to bring back, til the next trip…

After settling my stuff in IMU, I set off to Penang together with Suechoo (who had stg in her eye =0) and also Mingying to visit our frens who’s back in PMC. We went together with Suechoo’s beloved housemate, Choo Teck Ge, who risked his job by bringing us over altho he may be late for work that very day…(suechoo’s eye fault la). we had to go a Tun Hussein Onn Eye Specialist Clinic to see a specialist regarding her eyes. Niwe, thanx to Choo Ge, we saved about rm30 each for the bus ticket. Thanx Man!

Time in Penang was a blast! It’s great to see old familiar faces again. I even went there to play badminton…and also makan alot. Thanx to TaoQiu and Ah Ben for accomodating me in their cosy apartment…and also phaik khee and her dad for the great teochew meal! and Ah Heng Ge for the ride to the bus station (he purposely shift his class to gimme a ride summore) where i board my bus back to KL on Friday morning…and not forgetting all my other frens for the hospitality in Penang! My 4days 3nites stay in penang was really a memorable one. Thanx to Jo for the bookmark and soap!!! haha…surprisingly, she had toned down compared to last time.mature, kononnya! hopefully i’ll drop by penang again to meet them before i leave for london =)

haha, can post pics dy =) this is taken in PMC lecture hall…we curi masuk! haha. their lectures aint bad though… back to front: taoqiu, me, jo, biqi, mingying and the fattest in front…choo!!!

went for ais kacang at… forget the place’s name dy. haha…from left: szeyong, kokmeng, ben, uv, victor, wee loon and then me (with my national service haircut => )

huhuhu, the kingkongs reunites… excluding me la ofcoz!!! gaga

haha, VS is back in action! haha…ah tor in szeyong’s place before our dinner…

When i come back from penang that morning, i directly went back to Bukit Jalil to pack a few stuff, and an hour later, I was heading towards Seremban with Ah Hooi to meet up with M204 seremban folks. After visiting their new ground, we went for a ‘reunion’ dinner at Yummy Yummy (suggested by Ah Ong) which had a rather unique setting. the place looks rather romantic and have a glimpse of japanese style setting. Another great reunion! Feels so good to meet so many frens…reli miss those times  

M204’s small reunion at yummy yummy restaurant… i’m so touched to see their presence despite their busy schedules. thank you buddies!!!!

a pic with chee and that was the last that i saw him before he flew to ULU SARAWAK (US) haha…bon voyage chee. all the best in thomas jefferson med school!

aiya buttock, no muscles la. mai kek!!! behind: ah hooi, ah ong and hailiang. sitting: me, gordon(@buttock), jenern(@gigi emas <tik-ki>) and zyiyong (@mohammad)

act cute, haha! from L to R: me, ah feng, hailiang, and sautjun!

well, the next morning, there’s this annual goodwill games event (an event where seniors in IMU seremban clinical school will pit against the juniors from IMU bukit jalil campus in all sorts of sports) taking place in seremban. and guess wad, it’s my third goodwill games…but this time, im playing not for bukit jalil, but as an "imported" player of seremban clinical school. imagine me…leading a sedentary lifestyle without any form of exercise for the past 3mths or so in kuching… running around the court playing against calvin/ vun heng of BJ team…in no time, i was suffering from shortness of breath! haha, even on my top form, beating them was an arduous task. me and my partner Ah Ong crumbled rather easily in straight sets. i’ve forgotten the score but its a rather embarassing score. now, i noe how the seniors felt when we, bukit jalil folks, used to thrash them in badminton last time. kesian seremban clinical school, they were beaten in all events this year! it’s a record i think….and for badminton, they lost 5-0 also. haha! it’s okie folks, try again next year…but i believe i wont have the chance to witness the beauty of goodwilll games again for the next 3 years. it’s not about winning, but its about character building and also senior-junior bondings……

haha, pics taken with our enemy after the match… whoa, why we dun have sweats one? lol, lost without sweat…

M204s in action, haha! unfortunately, cameraman shook…so abit blur la the pics

not forgetting this malao-yee whom i owez bullied…not bully la…i trained…=)

right after my badminton match ends, i had to reluctantly say byebye to all frens and quickly rushed down to KL Pc Fair with Ah Hooi to purchase his lappie. I on the other hand wanted to buy webcams and also ext hdd. On our way back to KL, my dear ex-housemate kokfoong called to see whether we can meet up. apparently he’s in sri petaling that morning. very sorry bro, couldnt get the opportunity to meet up with ya.after taking a short bath at Ah hooi’s sis’ house, we catch the next LRT down to KLCC. my god, the crowd that goes the pc fair is enough to drown singapore i think….haha!

And woooh….kennysia’s blog who wrote about pretty gals in pc fair was so true…not only were the promoters beautiful, a majority of the customers were also very much worthy to pay attention to. not that we hav time though. we spend about an hour at toshiba’s booth as Ah Hooi enquires about his laptop. and yeah, he bought it…but disappointingly, it was from a guy promoter. hahahaha!

Then, i went down to look for my gadgets…one by one, i surveyed every stall to ensure that i get a good deal. Finally, i bought two webcams (Rm50 each), two headsets (a pair for chinpei who asked me to help her buy), 3 extension usb ports for my sis and her frens, but i failed to get my 120G seagate ext hdd. even though its priced at rm279, its the hottest item on sale tis pc fair. every stalls run out of seagate but finally one stall said that they may have some more stock the next day. when we called the fella the next day, we were told there were no more stocks on seagate 120G hdd. so, this time, we went back to the pc fair to buy western digital instead…for a price of 260. thanx to ah hooi, i realised that the cheap webcam that i bought was not vista compatible….(bugger, how could i have forgotten about that?!) so, i had to search for another reasonably priced webcam in a very short time (i chose the same one as the one ah hooi had bought priced at rm100, but it turns out we got cheated. the quality wasnt as good as what they claimed it to be. aiya, nvmla). my flight is scheduled in the evening at 7.40pm…i called the taxi to be there in vista at 5.15pm and the journey from KLCC back to vista is about 1hr in total. i was really rushing that afternoon. in the end, i made it on time. and ohya, gordon bought himself a new toy from the pc fair as well (a pda). finally its time for me to go home. carrying about 40kg worth of luggage, i single handedly walked down from vista to catch the cab to airport. niwe, special thanx to su miin for accomodating me in his place for the week…reli thanx ya bro!

And when i finally reached home around10pm that nite, i was fully fully exhausted…but i still managed to spend some time playing with my gadgets to make sure they’re fully functional…and the next day will be my first day back to school. but this time, it’s not St Joseph…but the school opposite it…St Teresa’s school! whoa tired ady…tell u more about st teresa and the students in the next post! haha…its a wonder that i can write this much…
