Doing the right thing



To start with it, blogging at the moment when there is only left less than 1 month to complete a 3 month project doesn't sound so promising as with the title. Should I just said I'm just trying to delay it till damn close to the deadline. But hey, which of my assignments aren't completed only by the last day of deadline? Perhaps, I'm talented/used to do the work within a kick-ass time rather than meticulously.

Anyway, I just try to blog about the recently 'happening' stuff of me. I just bought a running shoes yesterday just because I need one. And the reason of it is that I need one for my gym.

Q: What were I wearing for the past to the gym?
A: The old one which I mistakenly threw them away when I went back to Malaysia ( being brilliantly thought that my luggage couldn't fit in one more pair shoes while never consider I need them back in UK where I do more sports/ exercises than back in Malaysia)...

hOORAy...

Then, i was just considering a budget of £20 for the new pairs, however, when I got back from the shopping, I was carrying a £80 receipt instead. The fact is I was lured by the retailer staff to buy that shoes. Since, I didn't know of all the 'hidden- knowledge' in running shoes, with what I ever know is that light-weight is the recipe to seek for, he just introduced me one by one and tells me which suits my purposes and feet more for the next half hour. Obviously, I did check out with each shoes' prices...


Until,

When, I was shown the pairs which is the most suitable for me, I only realised to ask for the shoes price when I was slotting my card into the machine. And after hearing the sounds didi..di didi...di , the staff told me the price. (smart way to con buyer to get their products right?). Not entirely my fault since there's no price tagging along with the shoes at first.Of course, I still paid for the shoes since I'm badly needing the shoes after more than 2 months didn't go back to the gym since coming back to Manchester.

Then, after got some others stuff from shopping, got home and treated myself with fried pork loin streak and cucumber with soy sauce, one of the mastery dishes, I'm proud of myself...yes,I'm..

During the evening, I decided to try-out my new shoes in gym. Indeed and gladly, the shoes fitted me well on the treadmill. The good-news!!!

Oh yeah, noticing anything?
The retail shop is called Sweatshop. A weird name right? Wondering are they proudly telling us their products are made from sweatshop.

*Time to start with my work

People's Best Friends

Oh well, I have best friends as everyone do.
But is it means human or what?
Im not saying the opposite of human----but----dogs...

Been thinking:
Since millenia-years ago, dogs have been accompanying human to explore the continents and hunt for food. Human have their own names,guess also millenia-years ago. How about doggie? When did human start to 'apply' name on their pet dog (with the most famous: Scubby-scooby Doo)? Some just give them nicknames that suit their pets like 'Blackie' but some others give name like 'Alex' and sort on.
What if there is really have friends whose name same as your pet, like 'Alex'?
Will u said : oh well,you are just like the best friend to me like my doggie to its owner ?
Some people sometime will scold other of being 'doggie',
Is it mean they are their best friend or what else?

No matter what, Im a dog-lover....*peace*
My doggie is named 'Rocky'--guess my dad got the nickname The Rocky's movie film..
will grab some of its pic when I got back to my HOME...

Oscar

I know this year Oscar had been over for more than a month,but recently I managed to watch few of its nomination-movie.

In fact,I had just finished watching Slumdog Millionaire.Indeed,it worths of getting so many awards not only from this year's Oscar but also from Golden Globe,BAFTA and so on. Im not going to be the spoiler here,but yeah,for those haven't watched it yet,should 'slack' out 2hours for this film.
If I ever have to rate it-10/10 since it is hard for an Indian movie to catch so much of my attention with.

Besides, I also had been watching others Oscar-nominated movie. The Reader( Kate Winslet) is very nice show. At first, I totally have no idea what is the connectivity between and movie title and the movie's plot, but after I finished up the show.I just WOW!!!The movie's plot is really nice....
I will rate it 8/10 but since Kate Winslet won the Best Actress from it, +2 for it too....(she deserve the awardS in fact)

Then,I also watched the Changeling, another nominated film. The film is authentically bravo, and it is based on truth story. The return-to-the-1930's filming was totally awesome and as if they can find a real 1930's town nowadays. But the film is somehow too draggy since so much truth to be told. But oh well, i will rate it 8/10.

Comparing to the few previous years' Oscar's ceremony, this year stands out as unique and amazing. And what's more,all this year's nominated film are so great and really touching comparing to the last time,like Million Dollar Baby(which is directed by Clint Eastwood who directed Changeling too) and sort on...

Think that I should get back to re-dl Wall-E since it won the awards too...

Makan,makan and makan

Last time before moving into new house,I used to help out my mom to get ingredients from grocery shops around my house. Well, it always happened that the Lady of the House always forgot some of her recipe's ingredient had finished before starting to cook,so Im the one who biked out for it.I also have been cycled around to buy food for the family,especially Laksa during afternoon.... ;) love it...

Well,I'm not trying to promote Im a good boy,the real point of it is that...I DONT NEED to cook for myself. Everytime I felt hungry,there will sure have food ready to be eaten,even just fast food...
Now, I have to keep on thinking:
  • what should I eat?
  • what and what time should I cook?
  • what ingredients left?

if Im in the good mood--Chinese food
if left nothing much in fridge/being lazy bum/been starving for hours--Pasta
if being lazy+keep on lying on bed for crap-nothing+nothing left in fridge+starve for years- - Milo+bis cuits
oh yeah,I still prefer Milo than Hot Chocolate
I have to appreciate my instant noodle brought from Malaysia as there is still 3months more..

This is not an emo post.It is just my recall during the chilling-night at here.Supposedly should get the hell to start studying for 2molo test.
But anywhere,now I miss The Lady's food more than anything else right now.

btw...IM BACK BY 14TH JUNE....really looking for it
But before that,Mr Quah gonna get to study now
ciaoz...

Desire

Oh well,it never been a desire for me to get back here when I am not emo-ing.But things always change by the time which I believe in(except I am still a guy with balls for always)

Well,after months of not showing up at here and get new post uploaded,I nearly forgot the password to get into my account here.The fact I get to update now is that I am motivated of others of being able to keep on updating their blog days to days.I am rather to update my Facebook 24/7 as the matter of fact than typing at here.
As the new post for the 3-months of the new 2009...i have decided to change the skin...even i still fond of the previous skin.

This is not gonna be a blardy emo post anymore.After months of adjusting and suiting myself into UK here, I really get used to the life here.I know it somehow really takes a while for the adjustment,but I'm glad that I am not complaining and cursing like last time.
Thx for those who concerning abt it....

This week is the most hectic week ever in this semester,having few assignments and tests due by this week.But,Im glad these don't get any complaint from me,in constrast, Im enjoying it. 2 weeks more and it gonna have what I assume as midterm holiday-Easter Break. Rhetolically,what celebration is it?
But no matter what,at least it is a 3-week break which im expecting it to come ASAP!!!
Been up to A plan for the holiday in fact...

Oh,by the way,I passed all the subjects of the 1st semester....Hooray!!!Ironically,before this,I thought Im gonna to flunk few subjects and have to arse back to Manchester as early as August to re-sit for the papers.Glad it is not gonna happen for the moment.
at least,not yet.

Of all...Im glad I did and do keeping on everthing.....for good,for bad and FOR THE FUTURE

REALITY....fiuh...

tis is a farking emo post after months time....not any post wif pic....(but at least this is how i feel rite now)...it's going to be long post...

Well,it has been more than a week time that I don't do any revision/study/doing any tutorial work...
U guys will think just 1 week only ma....
but I keep on piling up the works and assignments and so reluctant to do them all...
I get damn low mark for all reports and assignments...
I lost track on the studies...
All because I keep on recalling back to the time when i was still at Malaysia...more specifically KL...
generally...I dont really miss my hometown(xcept hometown frenz) cz the life at there is farking dull...
i have been dreaming almost everyday at here and dream almost everyone I knew well at KL..
*trust me*

Life at Manchester is great....
Having friendly but sometimes very irratating floorm8s,
Having to know classmates from Hong Kong,China and Malaysia
Having friends who came along wif me to study at Manchester,David and Pou Yang
Having cousin at here too...who can help me also...
and also Sean and Melissa who treat me very well at here...*i owe u guys...haha*
but somehow....it still lacks of something...
think it is due to that i do everything alone and it is just for me...
maybe also the food and also nightlife at KL gua..
BUT STILL....i hate to be alone...seriously....

It has been
4 months since college-life end....
3 months since I officially leaving KL city...
almost 2 months time since I didn't meet up wif anyone from KL...
and 6 weeks since I been at Manchester...

Well....tons of people said taylors sucks like shit....
but for me...except the needs to study for A-lvl....it is cool 1 n half year life....
studying at Taylors is much better than at UK...
at least...i can spend a lots of money on clothes,entertainment and foods when I was still at KL...
at Manchester,I have to keep on reminding me not to spend overlimit....
in which the limit has forced me to eat most of my meals including lunch and dinner at my hostel...and cooked by myself...
I cant do shopping as usual....(I don't even buy any clothes at here yet!!!)
I cant spend money on watching movie in cinema....
I cant eat sushi whenever I want(I damn miss Zanmai Sushi arghhh!!!)
I don't really like the lifestyle at UK...(I am not a pub/club-goer also)
well,according to Daniel....
im like a 干物男 which mean I prefer to stay in room,stare at pc and kind sort of things...

I try to be myself at here....doing the things I like....
but it's hard!!!
I still cant find friends who can understand me and my lifestyle...
it seems that there are things that restricting me from doing that...(not just money)...
I hate to convert money back to RM ...
I cant state out the reason properly..
but surely not because it will make everything looks expensive...

Frankly speaking....I think I just get tortured at here....mostly mentally..

Everytime my parents ask me how is it life at here?....am I able to catch up lesson?....am I used to the life and weather here already?..
all I respond is 'yeah....great....no problem at here'...
I don't want them to worry about me much at here...
but in fact Im struggling at here...
I cant speak properly with guai lor....
I really wonder what the use I learn English for....
I hate to be in the same group wif them too because they always ignore my opinions whereas theirs are not constructive at all...and famously....like to WASTE BLARDY TIME....
Sometimes,I really cant understand what the lecturers talking about....
and sometimes the lectures are freaking boring especially....Aircraft Flight...
I always sleep in the lectures....especially those more than an hour lecture...
I cant find anyone who can help me in study like in A-level...

Isit because I never get myself 'ready' before stepping down to this foreign land....?
I always thinking back time at KL...
I really can't 'let' it go....
No matter how much I realise that I did appreciate the moment when I was at KL especially for the last week and also when I went back to KL before coming to UK....
but I tend to hope that the time can really re-wind back....

Lately,I have been talking on phone with Daniel almost everyday....
well...primarily because I running away from the reality....
I still cant accept the fact the I am at UK for more than a month already...
and because he's the only one whom I can manage to contact....
And he is willing to chat rubbish also...haha....
sorry dailor....cz i damn seldom talk rubbish at Manchester wif anyone....haha
Somemore...his course is almost similar to mine so he can understand what I am saying when it comes to study...

When I came here....
I faced a problem which I promised not to discuss further with anyone except thoese who already know...
This makes me more easier to get emo...and so moody for whole day...
Since this happen....it shows that I lagi cannont become independent and keep on relying on others support...
I admit...i shame of it......SERIOUSLY...

Whenever I listen to the songs which I listened to when I was at KL especially in Geoffrey's car,it pulls me back to the time when me,Daniel,David and Geoffrey hang out together...
Well,it pretty torture me since I listen to my i-Pod damn frequent...
no matter how I shuffled my songs....within the 1st 10 songs,it surely hit 1 song in which I listened frequently to at KL...
wth....

Since last Sunday onwards,the time different between M'sia and UK is 8hour already...
by the time everyone going to sleep....I just finish my class at Manchester...
oh yeah....my class usually start at 9am and end up at 5pm almost everyday...
and the timetable is getting more and more pack due to extra classes and lab sessions on the coming weeks...

No matter what....I am the one who had chosen to come over here for the study....and I proud I manage to get into the course I like....Aerospace Engineering...
yet...i knew i will still get emo for it....


I have an assignment which needed to be submitted later in the morning and now already 12.30am....
I even haven't start yet...fark it...

d-ESPRESSO

When there's a post means im still in SS15....
the reason I really get out from SS15 is cz BOREDOM....
i cant resist of going around to play...

but that's come a problem...
those I wanna hang out with straight after exam seems like keep on running away from me....
Is it because of what I have told u guys....
But im not regretting of telling u guys as u guys are my best friends in KL...
I ain't going to follow others who stop me from telling you guys about it...

I cant/don't have any idea how to hint u guys Im now stuck in SS15 by myself..
having to go for lunch&dinner alone....
Going out with u guys after exam is my prime reason that I still in KL instead of going back to Penang str8 after exam...
Attending Japanese class is jz a sub-reason in order to explain to my parents...
but it seems like u guys dint notice it...
what in fact is that,im in KL by MYSELF.....

I have been trying to go to find u guys ...
but there will always something that make me cant go to find u guys...
maybe it's jz that Im jz being too perasaan as some said....
I know it will be troublesome if I said I wanna to lepak in ur house again...
yet I still wanna to do so...
I admit im being selfish on this matter....but Im damn bored being alone in SS15..
*SELFISHNESS triumph MY REALISTIC THINKING*
I know u guys want to wait everyone having their exam finish only come out have fun....
but I doubt that I will be one of it...
maybe it jz few days time more...
but for me....it's like hell-damn long ...
as if im passing millenium....

I do blame on myself of why din know u guys and as early as beginning of last year...
*along wif LiangZhi gang*
Faith???
Don't bother about it la....

The reason i dare to post this up cz u guys not going to visit my blog anywhere...
I cant get away from emo-strike everytime im being alone...
it's kinda worsened when i move to single-room....
it's jz like a trap-room!!!!
gosh....

Even i have been hanging out with different people these days....
but it's jz not like the same as hanging out with u guy...
I admit i kinda have no feeling when hanging out wif others except you guys...
But I will keep on enjoying it...
Yet I realise there lacks of something...
Jz hope everything really comes out with what i hope to be...

Am listening to:If it kills me--Jason Mraz
