Annoying

Do you know what’s the hardest topic to do? Do you know which topic I despise to get? It’s getting a free topic. Yes, I rather to be assigned with any random specific topic. Some people will agree with me, but some might not. But I don't care; I'm talking from my point of view now.

The moment I'm allowed to talk about anything in the world for an assignment, I feel like doing everything. I would always waste so much time brainstorming for a topic because I want to do something others wouldn't do, or something I can do better than others. Thus, a specific topic given will make my life easier and saves time because I hate choosing and prefer a guided route. You can say, I lack of creativity or maybe a bit lazy. Who wouldn't prefer an easy life? Please don't tell me, you'll prefer a difficult and miserable life. That will be plain weird, or you just have a thing for self abuse.

Honestly, free topic is quite annoying. Not knowing what to write about, now knowing where to start, not knowing the scope of topic, not knowing how your marker going to grade it, not knowing the possibility of clashing topics and will that affect your marks, etc. In turn, there are unlimited possibilities to a free topic assignment.

Actually, free topic assignment is not just a pain for us, students, it’s also a pain for the lecturers who assigned us the task. Imagine marking so many papers and all in different topics. This might be more interesting to read but the lecturers have to research thoroughly about each and every topics used by the students, in order to grade the paper properly. See, it’s so time consuming.

Furthermore, a free topic assignment might be bias in my opinion. This is because if a student picked a topic which the lecturer dislikes, his or her marks might be lower than the ones who did topics which favours the interest of the lecturer. This is purely an assumption of mine; I’m not accusing all lecturers are bias when it comes to a free topic assignment. So, please don’t kill me.

I also don’t know why my lecturer will assigned such pathetic topic for me. Well, I am not pointing finger to anyone or blaming anyone, is just that I am really struggling in getting a topic for my blog. Moreover, this is the first time I encounter blog writing as an assignment! Why do all weird things suddenly come together? Tomorrow is my mid-term exam, I haven’t revise and eat my dinner. But I am sitting at Starbucks Café doing this assignment!

Ok, I think I'm a little overboard to be a tad bit angry about being assigned on a free topic. But did I mention how annoying is it to get free topic? I think it’s almost sufficient for the word limit, which turns my gloomy mood to a happy one. Ok, my friends are waiting for me too have dinner, its time to leave Starbucks. Bye people. Bye lecturer. Bye blogger! Bye starbuck!

                                             AWWWWWWWWW i was frustrated as him.



                Sorry . i use the copyright symbol ! i stone in starbuck cafe for a whole day!

Abundant


Good morning people! Yesterday was amazed me a lot. We did a lot of thing in one day! It was so random! Do you believe that we drive to Malacca for just celebrate my best friend birthday, and then we drive back our home? I know it was ridiculous, but the fact is we did conquest it without any hesitation. Due to Friday night, we went to Mist club count down his birthday, all of us woke up late in 4pm. We thought that Malacca one-day-trip was cancelled; hence we all did our staff separately, in a short while, the organizer (sim ann) called us phone by phone. As usual, we were lambasted by her. You ask any of my friends, they will answer you the same answer.

  
                                                    The organizer ( Chai sim ann) Hope she cant
                                                      see this if not i will get slaughter !!! LOL


                                                      
                                                  The birthday boy !!! (Wong xian gang )
                                                 I told you all, he is paranormal right?

 Without thinking much, we max our acceleration try to get to her house as soon as possible. Around 5 we started our journey to Malacca. If you think we were crazy, I can tell you directly you know us just not that depth. It could be. We prefer the way we are. Oh ya! I not yet introduce the birthday boy to you all. He is XianGang Wong, a legendary ‘pokemon’. His personality is just that unique. He dares to do everything that people think it is insane. In this world there is no one can replace him! If you meet someone that is idiot as him, I can tell you that the percentage is scarcely.

During the journey, they listen to my old disc song. All the song is just 20 century ago, it make us sleepy mood revive. After suffering in few minute, we decide change it in a blink of eye! But still, I fall asleep within few minute. Right after I open my eyes, the scenery I view was apparently different from Kuala Lumpur. Their buildings are not as modernized as the one in Kuala
Lumpur.

After 2 hour of journey by car.


Our first destination was of course the famous walk of Malacca; Jonker Street. I realized that my stomach was appeal to me, I eat while walking from the beginning, after we reached the restaurant, for the main dinner, my stomach was half full already. The restaurant was selling Malacca local delicacy, chicken rice ball. My friend they all was fascinated in it, but I not really like it, I think my taste bud is abnormal than them?

                                            Saw that? Hungry ? go malacca please :D


After that, we went to Jetty celebrate his birthday. We choose a garden bar, chill, then sim ann, my friend bring out the cake. XG was ecstatic, because he was a cake freak. We force him to stand on a chair, and sing birthday song to him, this is the first time I saw his embarrass face, quite fun! LMAO

Then, we decide to back home. During the way we walk to the car park, we saw another local food, satay celup. We feel like go try it before we go home. But, don’t know what the matter is once we start, we can’t get the rid of it, and we just kept eating. After 40 stick, we only pay the bill and go home and say hi to our bed. The only sad thing is I feel my tummy’s circumference getting bigger. =(

                                         We are messy eater  ^o^

Tips on anything part 2

Tips on everything
                                     
Imagine there is a bank, which will provide you a saving amount of $86,400 every morning.
But there is a term of conditions which is the amount of money will not be able to keep till the next day. So, everyday when it is the end of the day, the rest of the money that you don’t spend will be renewing right after 2400 and you will get a new amount of $86,400 again.
So what will you do if this bank provides you $86,400 every day? J


                                                  Oh my god. I found a picture of time bank from google.I'm genius =)

Withdraw it everyday before the expired time? May be you don’t know it, actually everyone had this bank since we are born. The name of it is called TIME. Every morning, the Time bank will give you 86,400 second; and cancel it after the end of day. There is no exception of any second can stay until the next morning, you also can’t get the advance payment. If you do not properly use these time deposits, the lost in only you would take. Did not look back again, not withholding tomorrow, you must have the time you live in the present deposit. You should make the best use of investment in exchange for the greatest health, happiness and success. Time is always kept in operation, effort to have the best of each harvest today.

There is no time for us to waste for today, tomorrow even future. Cherish every second you have, spend every second for some useful way that might advance yourself. There is 24 hour per day, separate it to 3, we have 3 times 8 hour, our sleeping time already spend 1 over 3 per day. The rest of it, what would you like to do? J

Actually, if we really going to count every seconds and hours everyday, that calculation itself will waste even more time. We should make full use of the time by doing meaningful things.

To those who rarely spend time with your family, please do so/
To those who never spend enough time for your self and spend most of the time working, please do so.  
To those who forgotten how it feels like to be outdoor and have fun, please do so.
To those who spends most of the time in front of the computer and on the bed, its time to get out and enjoy the humanly environment. Chatting and webcam do not count. -.-

Okay, my point is to appreciate all the time we have and spend them wisely. Play hard, work hard too, and don’t neglect family and friends.


                                              Cherish it unless you want it to fly away .

Tips on anything part 1

SWEAT! ‘Tips on anything’? I think quite long about it. I still can’t think a specific topic. Well, lets talk about food. Yes, I got it! I would like to teach you all for how to cook a healthy maggi mee in home. I know this is so random. But sometime, my time of the journey to dreamland was just too long. So, they wouldn’t keep some food on the table for me. If I lazy to drive out to settle my dinner or my mum fall asleep and I not dare to take money from my dad, ‘maggi mee’ is recommend. Espeacially curry! Oh my god! I just can’t endure the tempting of it!



Normally, how will you people cook a ‘maggi’? Do you know that there is plenty way to cook a ‘maggi’? Wow, may be some of you will be excited. Cook ‘maggi’ such a easy thing also got knowledge? I can tell you for 100% sure, YES! If you are get ready to enjoy ‘maggi’, but not full in your blank of your stomach by ‘maggi’.  For those, who ever eat ‘maggi’ before or never cook ‘maggi’ before, try to check it out even once. It is fun. I never lie to you people seriously. Try to take a 3 minute break, away from your business, away from your facebook, away from your video game or internet game, and involve yourself motives to  cook the ‘maggi’ . I swear, you will feel that it did not live in vein for decade. You sure excite that you never ever try such best ‘maggi’ before. Once you intensive yourself to cook ‘maggi’, I will sure that next time you wouldn’t pass this mission to your maid or your mum already. You will every time cook it yourself.



This is the way for those lazy people but they willing to eat healthy, this is it =) Do you know how to cool the best tasting ‘maggi’ on earth? Not only is it the best tasting noodles on earth it is also the fastest and healthy to cook. How great is that! It cooks in 3 minutes and it tastes heavenly. This step by step guide will teach you how to make this unbelievable noodle. This is a priceless guide!! And it is belong to choong seng’s copyright. Any copy and paste to other website or have a chance to infringe privacy will be against the law © << Remember this!

1) Boil a pot full of water.
2) Tear opens the packet of noodles.
3) Pour the sauce on a plate.
4) When the water has boiled put the dry noodles in.
5) Wait 3 minutes and drain the noodles.
6) Put the cooked noodles into the plate of sauce.
7) Stir and ENJOY!

This is another way which I prefer it. First, you need to prepare Egg Bhuriji.
1.    Beat the eggs, salt and pepper (if you like) – I usually do it in a steel glass, just like your neighborhood’s dog. (I hate it.)
2.    In the frying pan, add some oil and let it heat
3.    Pour the mixture from step 1 on the pan
4.    Make egg bhurji i.e. use a spoon to mix the egg mixture so that it mashes well



                                           This is the best part for the step =) I love the sound !
                                              
                                                          Completed !! YES =)           

             
                                 
·         Then, boil the water and put in the dry noodle. Cook it for 3 minute
·         Discard the soup
·         Boil the water and put in the noodle
·         3 minute later put in the egg bhuriji and mixes well.


Now you shall taste the power of MAGGI NOODLES the noodles of the century and the noodles that changed my life and hopefully will change yours!! Things to remember: Let the water boil before you put the noodles in. (Boiled water is always bubbling). A ‘Maggi Mee’ is the mee for me because it has a lot of nice power!!



                                  Saw that a? OMG. I am no longer endure. I go eat first. See you all in the next post

Hari Raya

Actually, the best thing about Hari Raya for me I think is bazaar. I like to eat. Eat can help me reduce my unhappiness. Bazaar is something like wet market but it will only sold Malay food. It sold wide variety of delicious food. Normally bazaar will start their business since Malay ‘buka puasa’. There is a bazaar near my house there. One thing I dislike bazaar is, every year during the season of Hari Raya, my plan to keep fit my weight also fail. This is because the temptation of the foods is irresistible. No matter what kind of food is that if it is a food, I will put it inside my mouth immediately without thinking!


This is the bazaar near my house there =)


Reminisce to last week, it was a funny day. That day I still remembered I went to section fifteen that station one café, and to assignment with my friend, after 5 hour suffering, my stomach sent a message to my brain and inform me that it is hungry, and my brain sent a message to my mouth and ask all my friend who is hungry? Want to eat dinner together? Any suggestion? Then one of my friend suggest us go bazaar buy food and dinner together in her house. Because her parents are not there, they went for travelled for a whole week.

This is the people during weekend or public hliday=.=


Then, we pay the bill and without thinking anymore, we 6 people stuck in a car, rush to the bazaar which is nearby her house to try to buy something to fill in our stomach! When we reached, they are about to leave already, and we try to move our ass faster try to get our dinner. I buy a pack of ‘nasi lemak’ with a golden fried chicken. After we all ‘gao dim’, we meet at her house and ‘buka puasa’ also. LOL.

During the raya festival, Muslim gives out green packet for their relative and friends. Sometime, I also will pay a visit to my neighbors and try to get some green packet from them. Actually, they very friendly and welcome another race people to come and celebrated the festival with them. Mostly, they will prepare several of Malay traditional snack food for the guest who come and visit them. One thing I dislike is only the traffic. Every year, they also will go back their village before Hari Raya to celebrate ‘it’ with their family. Although there is two day holiday for me, but I also prefer stay at home. Because the problem of traffic jam will happen for a whole day except for midnight. So, when for these two day holiday, I will become night stalker. Morning till noon is my sleeping time, and midnight. HAHA, time to go out ‘yam cha’ with a group of friend. Or, may be we will go out to get ‘wasted’. This is how I spent my Raya Holiday. Sometime, flash back my memory, I will feel that time past so fast. When I am still a kid, my mum get me grounded; that’s the time that I had no freedom. I got my freedom now, passed my 18th Hari raya holiday. I feel very touch. Ok, write until here. See you all next week. =)


Selamat Hari Raya to all my Malay friend =)

The colour of Malaysia part 2

Hi! Welcome back to my blog again. This is the attractive of Malaysia part 2. Hope you all enjoy it. =) Malaysia is a multi culture’s country. There are plenty of race’s people live in peace over here. We got no racism, work together, cultural exchange in Malaysia. The main races in Malaysia are Chinese, Malay, and India. We can’t live without each other in Malaysia. Each race is playing its own role in Malaysia.




In Malaysia, we work or study like an ant; and become a dragon at night! Mostly, we wouldn’t go to bed when the midnight is not coming. We like to eat supper at night. That is a culture in Malaysia. It slowly becomes a habit for teenagers in Malaysia. That’s why there are so many restaurants open 24 hour. It is a part of colour of Malaysia. We have another word to replace that habit. We can call it ’Yam Cha’. For example, when you want to date your friend go out, you can say like this. ‘Hey bro, tonight want yam cha?’ You cannot imagine how happy is it when there is so many friend come out, choose a restaurant (mostly we call it ‘mamak’ in Malaysia) sit together, gossip something together, chill together, and smoke together(for those smoker :D .Although smoke is bad for health, but it slowly become a part of social in Malaysia) << I am not encouraging you all smoke! Definitely not! Please don’t misunderstand it. Seriously, I swear you all will forget about tired and stress ness.

You can check it out in Malaysia =)


Beside, there is something else that you can only try it in Malaysia. You may predict it now! What is that? 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Wrong, wrong, wrong! =P It is a fruit. Someone might not be accept about it’s taste or it’s smell. For other who is falling for it! They can’t resist its attraction. Ya, it is the king of fruit in Malaysia. It is durian. It tastes not like a fruit. Its shape ranges from oblong to round, the colors of its husk green to brown, and its flesh pale yellow to red, depending on the species. Every one has different experienced of taste on it. Someone say it taste like alcohol; while someone say it taste like a bitter chocolate. Due to we just can buy durian in fix time, that’s why many Malaysia are crazy for it. There is a durian season held in Malaysia once a year.
                                               OMG ! It's durian !! My favourite!!!!


After you read my post, are you feeling that Malaysia is attractive? That’s it. It’s my homeland. I love Malaysia. Hooray for one Malaysia! Merdeka! Merdeka! Merdeka! Thousand appreciate in it. Thanks Malaysia. Thanks for nurturing yap choong seng! If I am rich in future I also wouldn’t migrate to other country. We Malaysian live in peace and harmony country! We don’t fight for other races benefit. I love Malaysia. I sincerely regard that Malaysia is a good country. We don’t do black mail, we don’t pride, and we don’t have race war. I love Malaysia so so much! (Y)^^(Y)<< double thumbs up .

The colour of Malaysia part 1

Malaysia is where I was born and breed. Malaysia is a beautiful place and it has become one of the famous tourist destinations for foreigners. Malaysia is also a multi race country and one of the attractive factors that lead to an increase of number of tourist over the years is the wide varieties of food in Malaysia. Once upon a time, somebody will never know where the location of Malaysia is, or may be they will ask what the hell ‘Malaysia’ is! Oh my god! It is a shame for our Malaysian! Fortunately, we have a genius leader. He let the world know, what is Malaysia, where is Malaysia, he make Malaysia famous than before. He was our respective pre-prime minister, Dato Doctor Mahathir.




As I have said before, the colour of Malaysia is the food! Oh my God, where else can you find nasi lemak, roti canai in other country? It accompanies us since we are young until we die in future (for those who decide live his whole life in Malaysia, I think. =) Every state in Malaysia also has its own signature foods. Every food represents it own culture. For instant, Klang which is located in Selangor is popular for ‘bah kut teh’ which is pork serve with herbal soup. ‘Bah kut teh’ is usually eaten with rice or noodles (sometimes as a noodle soup), and often served with ‘youtiao’ (strips of fried dough) for dipping into the soup. Soy sauce (usually light soy sauce, but dark soy sauce is also offered sometimes) is preferred as a condiment, with which chopped chili padi and minced garlic is taken together.
The image of nasi lemak =) *yummy*


OMG saw that?  Feel hungry ?



Besides food, Malaysia is also well known for its historical monument. Malaysia has a long history and it has leave behind many monuments that remind Malaysian how far we have come. There is a chinese saying’ similarity makes us strong but our difference makes us stronger’. Since then it has become a prinsip that we share to make our country stronger. Historical monuments plays an important role as it remind Malaysians the importance of unity for a coutnry especially for country like malaysia that consist of multi race.





One of the popular states for historical monument is Malacca. For instant, A’ Famosa which is a fortress built by Portuguese in 1511. The fortress once consisted of long ramparts and four major towers. One was a four-story keep, while the others held an ammunition storage room, the residence of the captain, and an officer’s quarters. Most of the village clustered in town houses inside the fortress walls. As Malacca's population expanded it outgrew the original fort and extensions were added around 1586. The fort changed hands in 1641 when the Dutch successfully drove the Portuguese out of Malacca. The Dutch renovated the gate in 1670, which explains the logo "ANNO 1670" inscribed on the gate's arch. Above the arch is a bas-relief logo of the Dutch East India Company.

                                        A' famosa in malacca ;D
