THINGS WE DID ON ESTHER'S BURFDAY

Ok I know it's a lil late. Ok, its' rather quite late. Procrastinations I guess.* BLEK* It's past Christmas already. But I don't care. muahaha. Here's to you guyz who's wondering what did Esther did on her birthday on an island, stranded. Ok, if I'm not mistaken Esther would have probably told you guyz every little detail of her birthday like a tape recorder. :P But here's a visual aid k? Here's to you too. :)

Lepakking at Gurney Plaza with Esther and Co. Penang is so small, the only place to go every weekend is either here or Prangin Mall. And the place is jammed packed, especially parking problem. But it still feels really christmassy. And I dunno, it was quite fun. :)

Random

Hey!! Who hacked my blog?? Huuuhhh....Mienn..I hope it doesn't get hacked anymore. Stupid malay dude. Or whoever. Real lazy to change blog.
Ok , just a lil update and some random thoughts.

Work is getting better now. Somehow its my first week of being 'busy' for the whole week. And the chief tech is getting friendlier now. Somehow he's not so snappy anymore, and more patient now. Supervisor gave a project to work on. Circuit designing. Quite excited at first. But now I'm stuck. Had to draw a circuit of a certain part of a machine which I have no idea of. haha. Hopefully next week someone will be able to help me. This whole week was really hands on week. Everyday I come back with dirty hands or some oil stain around me. Drilling holes into machines and installing a 120 Vac light on the roof of it. Burnt my hand today while soldering. Hopefully it goes on like this or gets better in weeks to come. :)

Oh, funny story when our supervisor from MMU came. All six of us were seated in a room. He asked us one by one how was our training and all. When it came to me, I just said that I helped out in repairing machines. Then he asked exactly how do I help out, I started like ' Erm...go take spanar or hammer..." And everyone burst out laughing. Haha. Chuah was like having tears in his eyes laughing. I couldn't stop laughing too. And I couldn't stop. Mien. It was quite embarassing you know, with the lecturer there trying to ask me questions and I couldn't murmur a word. Thank God I calmed down after a while. hehe. Lecturer was a good sport too. He laughed with us. Nice chap. Encouraged us to hang on and learn as much as we can after hearing all our 'complains'.

Adjusting to life here. Started to get used to being alone. Even if it means a whole weekend or something. I can go on a whole day without talking to anyone. Learning the art of concealing my feelings. I don't know whehter that's good or bad. Learning to survive and adapt to not having so many around.

It's a wonder how sometimes you wanna share something or tell something to that person, but that person's just a tiang lampu that answers your question like an objective paper? and yet the person whom you least expect to listen to you is just around the corner? odd..

Dreamt of you last night. Funny. Didn't really expect it to be you. It felt good though. heh. Kept me thinking about it even during work. I can't forget that moment when I saw your face. Awesome. :)

In talks of trying to join an extra band for battle of the bands. Lotsa things still unknown. Hey you. I'm all for helping you realise your dream. Lending you the thing which I consider the only thing I'm good at. Go for it.

I haven't put on any weight!~~ hehe. Not that I really watch it. BLEK. But I'm quite active in sports. Badminton and futsal. Sometimes twice a week. Gonna play at USM padang this sunday. Whoa. A bit nervous. Last time I played padang football I was panting like a bull. Looking forward to it. ^ ^

Had really meaningful conversations with su chen. yup. :) Hey do you know that I remember conversations better than anything else? really remembered especially saturday's conversation at su lin's place. ;) kept me thinking. next time any 'news' I ask you first k? you so expert. :p BTW, keep going forward k. I also don't have the answers to so many questions. But I'm comforted that I'm not alone. :)

Christmas is coming!! It's been ages since I celebrated Christmas back home. And my church old friends are coming back!! Looking forward to it too. oOO....maybe we'll get to eat turkey and lamb roast this year.....*SlllUrrp*

Dream Theatre is coming to Bangkok and Singapore. Might be arranging a trip up bangkok to see them with chuah. Singapore is too near CNY. Bangkok is 4 days from CNY Anyone interested? hehe.

You know what my dream is? Opening a music shop that sells instruments. Something like Bentleys. And attached to it a jamming studio. Fuyoh. :) And if business is good, we'll expand it to add a cafe/coffee house. So people can come chill after jamming sessions. hehe. My mind is flying d. We'll have gigs monthly to promote local bands. And recording companies will come to our place for talent search. SOMEBODY STOP ME!! MY MIND IS FLYING!! hehe. But of course, I'll have my band there for the final show everytime. Cos people will come to my shop cos our band would have already written 3 albums and won an AIM award already. HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Time to stop now before I go crazy. But seriously, I'm always dreaming of the day where I can play GOOD music with a band. Really good and serious stuff. Not some 0h-let's-go-jamming-for-fun thingie. What am I doing to pursue this dream now? Everything I can. Self learning. Self practice. Sacrifice in money.

the dark skies are beginning to clear up around here. Not completely, but I've learned to adjust my eyes to the darkness. and lookout for little rays of light. and be thankful for it. soon everything will be over. but that doesn't mean it won't come back again. I'll make it through. I always did, and I still can.

oh. There goes another ray of light. ggogo!! laterz. ;)

Photo Session

Our weekly Bible Study meetings on thursday nights. Actually to be truthful, I kinda enjoyed the fellowship more than the bible study itself. keke. It's really joyful to be around friends. Something which I took for granted all along till I came here. To able to laugh together. To be able to joke around and sing praise songs together. Suddenly all these have become so precious.

We celebrated Grace's birthday. FYI, it's the Grace from malacca. She's working in Dell now. Nick bought some cheese cake. Really awesome. Except the gals ate it feeling guilty. hehe. It's like the cheese cake has ' FATS' written all over it. More burfdays to come here in penang. *wink*

On broken wings

Don't just skip this entry because it's just lyrics. Some sorts of what I'm going through now, especially the chorus.


Broken Wings
by Alter Bridge


Fight the fight alone
When the world is full of victims
Dims a fading light
In our souls

Leave the peace alone
Now we all are slowly changing
Dims a fading light
In our souls

In my opinion seeing is to know
The things we hold
Are always first to go
And who's to say
We won't end up alone

[CHORUS]

On broken wings I'm falling
And it won't be long
The skin on me is burning
By the fires of the sun
On skinned knees
I'm bleeding
And it won't be long
I've got to find that meaning
And I'll search for so long

Cry ourselves to sleep
We will sleep alone forever
Will you lay me down
In the same place with all I love

Mend the broken homes
Care for them they are our brothers
Save the fading light in our souls

In my opinion seeing is to know
What you give
Will always carry you
And who's to say
We won't survive it too

[CHORUS]

Set a-free all
Relying on their will
To make me all that I am
And all that I'll be

Set a-free all
Will fall between the cracks
With memories of all that I am
And I'll that I'll be
