Economics test was..urm..tiring, since I didn't know how to do, I had to send SOS signals around me.

Not in the mood to do anything, since we were going down to Ipoh that night for some Civil Fun.

I remember the night before Economics test, I put my GTALK caption as,
"Eh, why like didn't do something this week..What is it ah? What..oh..oo yeah! We forgot to go IPOH, Civilians!"

and thus, minutes later,
one of their GTALK captions was "IPOH TOMOLO."

Shall I explain the spontaniety of our group?

 
ShiouTing, Khian and TeeHooi in the car, waiting for the guys to come out from the main hall after the test. How can Guys be slower than girls? That's life in UTP. Ok, in civil department to be exact!

Story cut short. No fancy food this time around. No expensive expenditures.
Why?

:: We have bigger plans for the future.

 


The 3 girls


The 2 ducks gays guys

and together, we bring you..


the most fearful, powerful combination in the faculty.

We watched Money No Enough 2. We laughed. We joked. And we made big plans.

p/s: And if you are wondering what's up with the BMW shirts. Told you, we have bigger plans.

At 6.30am, we were asked to gather to board the bus. We were expected to arrive in Singapore's border at 7.30 a.m.. The whole journey to the border was quiet and still, since it was early in the morning, and no one was in the mood to speak a word. The whole gang was splitted up since we were divided into 4 groups. 2 groups in each buses. This is a way to smoothen up the process while crossing the immigration lines, apparently. So, it was only me, ShiouTing, YewTeng, Joshua, Nony in Bus 1. The rest was in Bus 2.

The process was serious while we passed the counters. The woman who was attending to my group, apparently was in a grumpy mood. Immediately I announced that either she was having a strange case of PMS, or she already has menopause. While I was at the counter, thank goodness she didn't yell at me and even smiled. There was this leng chai officer who was standing at the counter that time, who suddenly asked me, "Where are you guys going? What's the purpose of this trip?"

I froze for a minute. I had to come up with an answer, whatever I said, might jeopardize the trip. In case mah..
So, the best answer I could came up with was, "Campus Visit." and smiled gleefully. The officer looked at me, and then shot me a smile. Lol! Suddenly, I find Singaporeans not that bad afterall..hehee..

We board the bus again, our first destination was NUS. I dozed off, since I was so tired, that when I woke up, I was already there.


Pictures are for posing purposes.

 

Apparently the campus is so big, we were only at the Engineering side of the University.


I was holding NIPS in hand..coz urm..urm..I was hungry lah..I couldn't wait any longer till lunch..

Our host was ENGIN, which acts like a club. They do stuffs like most of clubs do, like organizing charity trips to countries, having family days, hosting other universities to their university..etc. The professors and technicians were friendly, as we were again splitted up to 3 different groups to visit the labs concurrently. Well, as usual, I shall not be too technical about my visit, so to sum it all up, UTP has a long way to go before reaching the same par as NUS.

A few shots of the university's facilities..


ample of vending machines.


Good HSE.


After the visit to NUS, I can hear people comparing UTP to NUS. How unprofessional UTP is, How unsystematic UTP is..yada, yada yada..and the truth to be told, yes, UTP has a lot to learn from NUS. But it's not fair to compare in that way, considering the fact that UTP is way much "younger" than NUS. I believe, with the sufficient funds provided by PETRONAS to UTP, given time, UTP's facilities might just be better than NUS's. [Have faith, UTPians!]

 


Yes, Malaysians in BLUE! The girl in black, named "Chloe" is the vice president of the ENGIN club. She's a Malaysian by the way, from Alor Setar. The guy in black, right beside me, is a true Singaporean, also the president of ENGIN, is Jason. And his girlfriend, happens to be an Ipohian. Well, that's how small the world is!



Where is TeeHooi?


The cafeteria food is extremely cheap!!
Ok, let's not convert the amount of money.
I asked around, since we had lunch at one of the NUS's central cafeteria..
For a plate of malay rice which consists of a BIG[HUGE] drumstick, 2 vegetables, they only had to pay $3.50.
In UTP's cafe, first, you cannot even find a BIG DRUMSTICK, (let alone a HUGE one), and the variety of food is lesser compared to NUS's. And for that amount of food, you would at least have to fork out a piece of green note. (a.k.a RM5, the least!).

Dollar to dollar. NUS's cafe definitely won hands down!

(and I got myself a glass of COKE for $0.50! Heck!! That price was way back in MGS okay..now in UTP, where can get $0.50 punya COKE??)


that's Calvin and I, in front of the Structural's Lab.


We managed to have a small tour around the campus, and visited the Architecture blocks. Damn, the students were in school on a Saturday, to discuss on some projects! Their workstations look so professional, as if they were in a real architecture office. dAMN!! Jealous..and what do we get? Common rooms? Alright, 'nuff said.




Joshua, ShiouTing, Khian and TeeHooi in one of the parks.


And this concludes our "Campus Visit" to NUS. Up next,  will be bringing you "Singapore".

p/s: I still think it's wrong to work on a Sunday. Not with this pain.

pp/s: STREAMYX, you suck big time okay?

The weekend has been simply awesome. Pictures shall be posted soon!
and I came home, on Saturday, like every other weekend, I would bring my parents out, either for dinner or lunch, and sometimes, even a short yumcha session in Oldtown Kopitiam with my aunts and cousins.

This week, was abit different. I went to the hospital with mum, had Japanese for lunch, brought her to the MATTA fair, which we'll be going somewhere far far during my internship period, then yumcha with my aunt and cousin, and finally settled at home.

A wonderful weekend, counting to the end.

I understand that my current state worries alot of people. I'm sorry.

and it pains my heart when someone actually asked me, "When will you be the AngKhian I used to know again?" 

I'm looking forward to getting better soon.

Glad that life's turning out fine these days.

Like how I kept stressing on integration with my coursemates, thus, Yasmin, Zareina, Azman and I went to the nearest Bazaar to have dinner together. We managed to drop by in Medan to have dinner, though sharing the same fork, yet it was fine. It never crossed my mind that it was possible for us to hang out and have dinner, and talk like we were old buddies. I think Yas, Zareina and I only got closer and "happening" giler this semester. This is really good eh.

And just came back from mamak with PeiChie and SanNien. Gosh, so much was updated to me lah..haha.. and am glad that the seniors still remember my number lor..haha..and yes, Peichie, we shall have dinner, at least ONCE before the semester ends, and then, it's bye-bye to you guys already! Gosh! Time passes by so fast! I still remember the time when we went out for breakfast on the last day of semester of MY FOUNDATION 2 YEAR! Gosh!

Though I was having slight headache, and caught a cold due to the rain, yet nothing stopped me from smiling to sleep tonight..

p/s: Peace to you.. "JiaYou!"

I meant to write about what happened in Singapore and the rest of the trip, but my emotions are pretty unstable at the moment. The backache is back. The fact that I missed a week's of medication, mum keeps harping on it. Damn, luckily I'm going back this weekend.

Just got to know something from my coursemates. Not really a shocking news, considering I've predicted it for a very long time now. Hahha, well, you know, life is like this big old drama. The only difference is, we are either watching it LIVE or we are acting in it. We don't have to sit and wait for the drama to be downloaded, because every second, a new drama is bound to be on "aired". Quoted from Shakespeare," Life's a stage, full of players"..or something like that lah..haha..

Having Economics test tomorrow. Alot playing in mind. To tell or not to tell. To say or not to say. To sell or not to sell. To buy or not to buy. Life's turning into a big casino to me. Every second is a gamble to me. Every minute, a life may be lost. I don't know when's mine, coming to an end.

This is worth noting.
As I was "clearing" my inbox, this sms caught my attention.

"Ok ok. Y he so not gentleman one? Go n cari pasal wit a gal. Like a bitch onli. Lol."

Hahha..imagine a guy being a bitch? Lol. What were we even talking about then, I wonder. Lol!!
So, Gossip Girl, bring it on okay!
I am tired of all campus gossips, give me nicer dramas alright?
