Happy new year ( 15 days later)

2011-01-16T01:21:00.002+08:00

Ok I haven't posted in a while then suddenly in the middle of studying for exams I decide to change my wallpaper which has been stuck on Taylor Swift for well sometime now (from october to be exact).I decided that since Justine Henin used to dominate my desktop when she played and since she is going to play in the AO soon- I might want to use her wallpaper but there was just one flaw to my plan and that was that since my notebook crashed last year and I had to reformat it I pretty much lost my entire collection of JH pics and wallpapers and I had accumulated quite a collection in the 10 years that I had been following her .

So now I just spent about an hour trying to find something nice and in the end what I found was not what I was looking for but a FB group and a very funny JH fan blog .

Ok I'm just bored studying dermatology will do that to you I guess....

Ohh yeah had just finished my Psychiatry exam and man was that fun within one minute I managed to annoy the head of the psych hospital so much that he told me that if I shut up and left he would give me a passing mark-- I actually laughed to his face before getting my credit book and leaving--Man I need to learn some self control-- still laugh every time I think of it--

miss him

2009-10-01T16:07:00.001+08:00

my uncle passed away today. I spent 2 years living in his home, there was a time when he was the bane of my existence.
But I will always remember the things he taught me.
Always wipe your feet after washing your legs or bathing,
always clean your feet before going to bed,
no job no matter how menial is beneath anyone.
and the one thing he taught me that I follow everyday in my life is no matter what you do always do a good job cause we must take
pride in our actions.
He wasn't the lovey dovey huggy type of person, but I always knew he would be there for me if I needed him.
I'm going to miss that and him always doubting everything I say,
going to miss watching football with him, cause he would always bet on the
team I didn't like just so we could argue .
I'm going to miss him sitting in his corner with his pc singing .
miss him collecting all the scraps after dinner so he can feed the stay dogs.
miss him always telling me not to give the beggars any money.
always insisting on paying for the meals.
miss him waking me up early on Sundays by blasting old Chinese songs.
well I guess I'm just gonna miss him.
RIP Uncle Fong...Love you..

talk about a bad day.

2009-09-26T15:57:00.003+08:00

First I spend 45 minutes getting to class only to be told that classes were canceled because there was no water. Then another hour later I finally arrive at the hostel only to step on shit on my way into the hostel( I'm was wearing my fav pair of basketball shoes no less). Then I get into the elevator and I get stuck between the 1st and 2nd floor. Half an hour later I finally get out of the elevator. Later that night I accidentally spilled a full mug of coffee onto my beloved notebook, Thank God Dell makes such sturdy(and water proof notebooks) only my screen is a bit weird but everything else is working just fine....ohh ok maybe the keyboard has gone haywire a bit as well... at least it didn't go up in smoke like sakinah's ACER did...Should be thankful for that at least I guess...hope it all just gets better from now on.

Almost missed my flight...

2009-08-25T17:09:00.002+08:00

Ok all my friends know the story about how I nearly missed my flight to Russia 3 yrs ago, coz I thought the flight was on the 24th when in fact the flight was on the 23rd. I would have missed thee flight had it not been for a very irate Mr Ng calling and screaming at me an hour b4 my flight was to fly...
Well I nearly did it again this year, I thought I booked my flight on the 27th and had told my family I was leaving on the 27th then I go pick my tickets up and I find my flight is on the 28th so I have one more day to torture my family....
Ahhh seriously not looking forward to returning to Volgo..

But life has to go on and I need to finish my degree so heres to another year closer to me becoming a doctor.

Well till I fall down and decided to post again.. ciao.

CNY, a birthday and a wedding wow what a weekend

2009-02-23T02:21:00.004+08:00

Wow it has been a fun filled 2 days... 1st yesterday was mira's birthday(Mira is my roommate, the only one I have been able to keep from my 1st yr). We had a girls night out, we hit Sakura and then grabbed some coffee before the girls decided they wanted to go shopping, anyone who know me know I love shopping ablout as much as I love getting my teeth pulled out. So it was a nightmare but the girls tried to make it up to me by hitting the arcade on out way out the mall.. I kicked butt at Time Crisis .. Then today the Malaysian Chinese threw their CNY celebrations granted CNY and Even Chap go meh have passed us by, but its the thought that counts and they really did a great job , there was even a dragon dance , it was cool.The food was good, and the party favours they handed out were verey thoughful.

Ivan got all dressed up

me and afni

Mira and Sakina

the restaurant was quite nice..
think I'll be posting more pics on my Facebook ... it seems I'm running out of space on my blog account..hmmmm

ohhh the wedding... we are happy to announce the wedding of Mazidah to Saiful ... the wedding took place early this morning at the mosque the akad nikah ceremony was attended by friends...
Heres to wishing the happy pair all the happiness and good fortune in the world...

Flight tickets

2009-02-19T21:22:00.003+08:00

Man just when I think I've got it nailed down as to which flight I'm gonna be taking, my friend goes and finds another flight that gives me 2 more days in M'sia... So my dad( who so far has been an angel about my travel plans )is gonna change my booking to the 29th I was gonna fly on the 28th..
I'm sure if I change my mind one more time he is definitely going to kill me...
Ok as things stand I'll be coming home on the 1st of July and flying back to russia on the 29th ...
thats about 2 months wow cant wait, just have to get through 5 exams first :-(
anyways Fong just turned 23 so we had a small dinner.. I'm putting up some pics...

Winter Break

2009-01-31T08:57:00.002+08:00

For everyone who just finished their winter exams the 2 week break is normally a god sent but for me its becoming quite a bore.. While my friends are off tracking in god knows what country I'm sitting in my room catching up with all the movies and serials that I have missed this past 5 months.
While I'm not one to whine (most of the time) I'M REALLY BORED!!!!!
AHHHHHHHH
On another note I seriously like this new series called " the mentalist" the guys so annoying he just seems funny..
Anyway think its time I start counting how many stars there are in the sky maybe that will keep me busy for a while, or maybe I should start cleaning my closet ( havent touched it in 5 months) what can I say I' ve been busy. ;-)

NO pics this time haven't left my room in like a week... more pics next time promise..

beautiful trees

2009-01-15T22:15:00.003+08:00

The lady had mental problems and we found many blocked arteries in her brain.Her brain was actually softer and wetter than usual.

Bcoz the other teams were targeting her, our got into a fight

with the ref. But the ref was dunmb he didnt do anything when u

could clearly c that the girls were pushing her , especially when she jumped.

This was during the finals , we won by one, I scored the winning basket ..

Man this win was sweet.

The gold medal teams. Both the mans and womens

teams won gold.and there were only 6 of us each

while the other teams brought like 8 to 10 players each..

We kicked ass man, we lost intially in the early rounds but when

they moved the games to the big court we kicked everyones ass.

This was the prize giving ceremony at the embassy.

That was for basketball. We were so tired so , only one cherrie

was pumped up the rest of us were too tired to even raise a hand.

OK later.

My messiness knows no bounds

2007-04-22T18:02:00.003+08:00

Ok I seriously havent cleaned my closet in a long while,
as u will c the clothes are gonna reach the top of the cupboard soon.

the bottom is not folded ... all coz of my mom
she never let me fold clothes at home.

THIS IS BESIDE MY BED..

I cant clean this one, coz I'll clean it now then 2 minutes
later I will need to find something and I'll mess it up again..
so this one is a lost cause.

As u can c I have a little pharmacy going and all the crib bandages
are for my ankle, which has been acting up since I started playing
basketball again.
anyways maybe I'll get to cleaning soon..

Anyways NBA Playoffs starting. Hope the Pistons go all the way again.
Then it will be 6 championship drive. HAHA I can always hope.

We went out for Lee's birthday, the was no water,
so we had to go out.

me and the senget cat..

the reason mira is hiding her face is coz the boys

between them managed to switch the tv off.

So she was embarrased.

the boys were eating.. Lee and Ivan dressed up nicely.

this is the small hill we have to climb up

to get to our dorm.

ok Detroit Shock got Ivory Latta as the 11th pick, who would have thought.

Hehe Lee's shy..

Our history teacher is great..

If only we didnt have test's EVERY WEEK.

Ahhh Zul.... Just cant stand not kacauing him..

Yadie n Mira.. they look good together...

When ever we have physical training, we get very competetive.

So I'm sitting here all alone( with 3 other sleeping ppl in my room) no one wants to wake up.. even pancakes couldnt entice anyone of them to wake up.. thats how beat they are.. anyways hoping it will snow today so we can play in the snow tmrw.. but it hasnt started snowing yet so I'm not holding out too much hope .. posting pics from earlier this week, when the little one decided to play in the snow without me..

Div,sak and syahira sure weren't cold that day..

We had our last bio lecture of the sem last week.. and only 23 out of 100 over bothered to show up.. bue most that did were studying other stuff..or sleeping.

developed a crush on her.. I never met a guy who thinks
more with his stomach than this guy..

Finally I'm got in the picture..
as U can c I'm in dire need of a hair cut..
but since my russian is still bad I'm scared to go
for fear that I'll end up looking weirder than I already do.

The cakes I bought.. has to buy 2 coz there were 14 of us ..

What i didnt know was that Mira had made 2 cakes too..
So we ended up eating 4 cakes.. man was it fun.. Mira's cakes were really good.

OK bye

Intensive is now over!!!

2006-11-26T01:05:00.000+08:00

Finally the intensive russian classes have ended. I can understand a bit better this days, but I'm still having a bit of troube with making sentences...

On monday we will start learning all the other subjects, hopefully I'm ready to go then. A lot of treavelling to be done. The classes are spread out all over Volgograd, so my bus pass is gonna be used a lot.

We had a little celebration party to mark the end of the IRC our teacher cut the cake, it wasnt that bad, but i sure do miss Secret Recipe and Breadhistory... Love their cakes.

Anyways got some sport training tomorrow, dont know yet what i want to play, gonna try and play everything.... Get to use my new shoes tomorrow..

This was taken last sunday, raya open floor, and they made chicken rice...
man I sure miss malaysian food soooooo much.. anyways me and my frens stuffed ourselves..

The boys were a bit down, our team got their butts kicked.
But they were ok I guess for a team that had never even trained together.
Us girls are playing tomorrow, hope we dont suck as much hehe..

ahhh finally

2006-11-22T04:00:00.000+08:00

Finished the concluding test today.. will have togo through all this again every month for the next six yrs... wat a nice thought..

But hey sendiri cari punye.. could have stayed in Malaysia studied something else. Gotten a job, would have saved my dad a load of dough but anyways , I'll stick it out I hope..HEHE...

anyways finally i found a pic of me and my 2 roomates.. I think between us we have taken thousands of pictures.. but this is the only one with only 3 of us..

I know I look real bad right, this was the day after we got to Volgograd,

that means this is the day after i spent nearly 18 hrs on the airplane.

Then we got dragged up a hill...

then the exams..

New friends

2006-11-18T23:38:00.000+08:00

Since this is the last week of our intensive course, this is also the last week
we will have these 2 teachers..

from next week onwards we start learning everything..
I'm sad that this teachers wont be teaching us anymore.
I wonder wat my new teacher is gonna be like.

my teacher was running a bit late, while we are waiting we met a few
missionaries from the states , the guy on the far right is from Utah while the other guy is from
texas. I think they are mormon but i dont know for sure.
But they are friendly and its so nice to be able to find people who speak english.
hope we run into them again. Volgograd is real small we actually ran into the
guy from Texas before and chatted with him and another friend. Wish we were able to take them up on their offer to spend some time with them. But our days are so cramped, well maybe later.
Anyway the temperature has dipped to below 0 so ITS COLD..
gonna need to get a heater i think...

ok bye
.

Dinner

2006-09-16T00:39:00.000+08:00

Went out to dinner with a few friends from work. All you can eat steamboat/BBQ, it was really filling we spent like 3 hours eating, ate so much I think my stomach nearly blew up. There came a point I swear I felt my body scream at the thought of another morsel of food going in.
It was the first time I had been to this particular place and the food was actually very good. Most probably will be another 9 to 10 months till I'll eat that kind of food again.
Anyways my camera is currently out for repairs so I havent been taking any pictures so I'm posting pictures of my baby again. My friends came by to get some books from me after dinner and the boy tried to go after them , especially when one of the (miss Lee) hit me with one of the books, good thing he was on a leash if not , we might have witnessed some blood shed.

I AM PISSED

2006-09-14T16:10:00.000+08:00

Lukas won the Supernova gig... Dilana should have won.. NVM Dilana will do better as a solo artist..

Justine lost

2006-09-10T23:22:00.000+08:00

Justine lost in the final to Sharapova. But she will play in the Fed cup.

Katie has a ring.

2006-09-10T23:17:00.000+08:00

Katie Smith should have gotten the Finals MVP,
but it went to Tweety who also had a great game...
Ok till next year then.
Now I'm hoping I'll be able to watch the FIBA WC.
Think I wont be spending as much time at Rebkell Junkie anymore..
But who know old habits die hard.

SHOCK WIN SHOCK WIN

2006-09-10T06:30:00.000+08:00

They did it... Finally Katie Smith has the ring. Man this one was so great
the Shock won by 5 , the Monarchs really tried very hard in the fourth quarter.

I'm so happy I started crying.. I love this game..
Now JHH plays at 7...hope its 2 out of 2 today...

Finals

2006-09-09T12:19:00.000+08:00

The pint sized belgian

vs

The Maria " I am Pretty" Sharapova.

Win or lose , Justine is my favourite.

US OPEN FINALS

2006-09-09T12:13:00.000+08:00

The finals are tonight. So is the WNBA final if both are at the same time , I'm going to watch the WNBA final. Ok guess that wont be a problem cause the final is being played at night and the WNBA game is at 3.30.. I'm really stoked, cant wait both should be great, hope the Shock and Justine prevail, that would definetly make my day, month wont say year that will happen if Man U can keep up playing like they have been the past month.

Game 4 pics

2006-09-07T22:48:00.000+08:00

Oh yeah baby, ALL HAIL.
In case you hadn't guessed KS is my favourite player.

T The bad girls Roar.

Ohh my god, how did we blow this one????

Play of the game for me. Pierson says, in your face RB.
Not on my watch.

SHOCK WIN SHOCK WIN

2006-09-07T22:38:00.000+08:00

Shock won by 20 pts and forced game 5 back in Detroit. Ruth Riley was big, first time in the series she actually looked like she came to play, getting a hand to stop passes, hustling for the ball now thats more like the Ruth I love.. Katie Smith was her usual great self, 22 pts in 39 minutes and only 2 turnover .

Justine beat Lindsay it was a great game, but I was very sad to watch Davenport lose.
Have we seen the last of LD , I hope not that would suck, I want to her to play another couple of years.

I'm back

2006-09-05T10:53:00.000+08:00

I'm finally back, went to not one but 2 wedding this past weekend. The weddings were in Ipoh, the first one was that of my aunts friends son ,it was a malay wedding nice to eat malay food again. The second guy that got married was my mothers fathers cousins son. WOW very far out right, but we are actually quite close, they are ok.. the wedding was nice but like the traditional indian thing so it was extremely LOUD.

Ok looking forward to Justine playing Davenport tonight, then of course there is game 4 this wednesday, make or break time for the Shock.

SHOCK WIN GAME 2

2006-09-02T10:22:00.000+08:00

The Shock guards really picked it up in the second half... Katie had all her pts in the second half, and Nolan really hit most of her shots. Katie had 16 and nolan had 21 pts to lead all players.
The lawson/powell combination didnt work today..

Next game is in SAC on sunday.

US OPEN Day 4

2006-09-01T13:43:00.000+08:00

AGASSI is my hero, at 36 he beats a man more than 10 years his senior 7-5 in the fifth.
Felt bad for baghdatis he had cramps in the closing games of the fifth set. But the old man pulled it out and took home another win stretching his run at the US open.
On the womans side, Hingis got beat real bad, Razzano beat her man that has got to hurt.

I made a slide show yesterday, i was trying out the microsoft movie maker, Irfan viewer and also Arc Soft video impressions . In the end I found that the microsoft program was the easiest to use. Ok got some good games on tonight . Hope to catch a few.

US OPEN

2006-09-01T01:33:00.000+08:00

Justine won , beat King. Lindsay , well i dont know the lady she beat but the score was 6-0 6-0..in 40 minutes. So Its better this way less embarassment. Hingis and Serena will play later. might get to watch that.

Shock LOSE!!!!!

2006-08-31T10:14:00.000+08:00

Ahh a bad game. The Shock didnt have the LOOK , the look they normally have when they come out to play. Swin had NO POINTS and Ruth had 2 . What was that about. Man I hope
the Shock play better on saturday. KS had 21 and Ford had 25 but powell and lawson also scored over 20.. That sucks, hope they play better next game cause if not I might start killing people. AHHHHHHHHHHH

Rainy Day

2006-08-30T14:03:00.000+08:00

Rain rain go away come again another day, little Justine wants to play.

The rain has caused a massive delay in NY , almost all the games were postponed to today,
only a few games started , but none finished.
All will be played weather permitting.
tomorrow morning is THE DAY of the WNBA Finals first game in Detroit, Shock has to come out strong, and keep it up.

Its been raining non stop in Penang, cant even take Waldo out for a walk, he is sleeping again, he's been sleeping a lot because its cold i think.

I'm really bored another 25 days till I leave Malaysia..

US Open

2006-08-29T17:48:00.000+08:00

Justine played great, a few unforsed errors here and there but all in all a good game. Served up 111 mps serve, cool huh?
Andre won, lindsay won too, as did Sania Mirza, but she played a real bad game, watched some of it, she's still hitting that forehand errors, one goes in 2 goes out.. Some control would be nice Sania.
Tonight Amelie and Nadal play, so does Safin, I love Safin hope he doesnt lose (like he seems to be doind lately)

I'm bored at home, went marketing with my mom today, it was funny it seemed to me like my mom just went and chose the biggest fish she could find, hehe must mean my family eats a lot. The dog slept the whole day, and there was nothing to watch on tv, how is that possible someone tell me, I pay 125 every month for satelite tv and i still have nothing to watch that just sucks.

Andre Agassi

Watching Aggasi play in the first round, hopefully this wont be the last match he plays, right now its one set all both sets have gone to the tie breaker.

Steffi has always been my favourite player. Love the two of them together.

Going to miss AA's beautiful backhand, the short back swing, man he is going to be missed by everyone. Remember the US open i think about 10 years ago, it rained and the courts were flooded , and there was this guy with long hair in the water pretending to swim. lol never going to forget that.

The Fab 5 you can see half of Katie's face, man I cant get one pic of all of them together.

The Valiant Sun team tried their best but were beaten on the night by the
better team.

Ohh yeah the smile of the victorious.

HMMMM , what ever wasw said must have been funny
Ruth definetly thought so.

We are the Champions

We are the champions my friends, and we'll keep on fighting till the end.
Man that song is so appropriate. The Shock played great, evryone on the team played great.
I'm over the moon. Next up Sacramento in 4 days.. That is for the Title, The Shock are now the WNBA eastern conference Champs. I'll get some pics later...

In the LPGA Ochoa won the wendy's and takes over at the top, Karrie finished tied for 6th. Sad but the season is far from over.

US Open starting soon cant wait.
