A Students Life

A one fine morning, where the dew of the night sky filled the air, moist every tree leave that is fully grown, waiting for the caterpillar that soon to turn into a beautiful butterfly someday to feed on them, There was I sitting in my college canteen, pleasuring my ears to some easy relaxing blues tune, savoring the peacefulness of the quite morning atmosphere of the canteen. The morning breeze filled the air where all of a sudden with a blink of an eye, the canteen was filled with student from the secondary school just beside the college.

All lining up to the only stall buying their morning breakfast to fill up there hungry morning stomach before entering to class where knowledge and unforgettable memories to fill their minds. At this very moment I started to reflect back, just as if the pass came slapping on my face with a huge blow. The time where I use to be in school, before the sun rises. Where I would head on to the canteen straight away to line up on my favourite roti canai stall to get a couple of fresh hot from the pan roti canai.

Nevertheless, a students life would always be a life that would never leave every students mind. No matter where we come from, these memories will always linger inside us. Though it would never be the same for each of us but I am very sure that memories will be there, maybe your favourite eating spot, the place you had your first punishment, your first love experience or even the time you actually has a bad accident just because you were having so much fun. No doubt some would hurt during the time it happened, but as we grow and leave the school we once hated going to, it would be a memory that we will sit down with our friends one day to have a good laugh to.

Many would claim that college life is the best period of a student life, as you could bring handphones to school, smoke without worrying, and some because it is the time we have our legs that runs on petrol to take us around. As for me I do admit its fun, but nothing beats the secondary life, where it was the adrenaline of going agains the schools rules and the accomplishment for going scot-free for bringing your handphone to school and so on. Unlike now in college, yes is fun but the rush of doing something is just not there anymore, even you don't get your work done, or if you sleep in class, there is no punishment like demerit point nor standing outside the class.

Well there is so much things to list out but I believe you get the idea. Well we have to grow up some how and the life that passes by us will be gone but its experience will never leave us!

Are You that Desperate

I just do not get our local law enforces here. Alright it is not that i would want to make a whole big issue out of it, I am not here to rant just about a summon I got from the law enforces. Honestly I accept the summon at all cause, because it is not a parking spot, so by theory I am indeed on the loosing side, but what I am dissatisfied on is on our local enforces attitude.

It was a calm night, where Mr Foo invited me and the guys out for a drink with an occasion of Nick Leong's visit back to Penang, so we met up at a regular spot of ours which is esplanade. A place that many locals and tourist would flock to fill their empty stomach or just to have a beer or two. As I was saying, the place do not really have proper parking space set up, which my meaning of proper is designated place for motorist to actually park their vehicle. So usually many would park illegally. Hence it was a place that I have not receive a summon from as well.

Yet on this particular night, I receive my very first from the place. Worst of all it is on the "Ramahdan" season. Dear law enforces, are you seriously that desperate for the extra cash? why is it during this particular season all of you are up on your feet catching law breakers? with all the road blocks operating in every crook and cranny in town. It is just pathetic to know that our law enforces are doing their job whenever is near their festival celebration which is Raya and sleep during the normal seasons of the year.

It just make me wonder how twisted our law enforces are with such desperation for the extra cash is being displayed to the society. It just makes me look at these law enforces are like a working company where the boss will tell them, "alright people as you all know Raya is just around the corner, so if you can increase the rate of summons given and motorist who breaks the law, those with the highest number gets a big bonus for Raya."

Is that what the superior promise you all? I will pay my summon as every other responsible citizen would, but I have a strong feeling that this act will be put to sleep once again when the festival is over and it is back to the normal season. How can the society not break the law when there is such actions displayed by the law enforces themselves, how can we respect the law when they do not respect the law themselves.

1.52 am

I have always wondered how my mom use to be able to put be to bed at 9pm back in my primary school days and now I am here uncontrolled and had turn my time to a full change. I do admit that i do have bad sleeping time practice and until now I am really shock to know how bad it is.

Well it practically normal for every teenager to stay up till late, but usually will be heading to bed when the clock strikes 3am or 4am. As for me, I have come to a stage that when ever it passes 12 midnight, my eyes are fully wide open till the sun rises. It came to a point for me that I need the sun to be up to be able to fall into my long mind resting sleep. I have forced myself to sleep many times but I need the aid of sleeping pills to actually sleep when the moon is up. I'm so darn screwed.

Life has indeed too a 180 degree turn on me. When the society are in their deep sleep, dreaming of the places that they ever wish of visiting, or spending time with they most loved ones by a place that doesn't exist in the world. I am here facing the computer writing blogs and putting my mind in assignments. Oh God please help me to turn back my life.

Hence, I was unable to fall asleep, for the pass few night I have been thinking of all the things that I want to do before I am actually 6 feet under the grown of burn in to ashes.

1. Sky diving
2. Bungee jumping
3. To own a fast car
4. To own a landed property
5. Start up a family
6. Obtain a Masters qualification
7. Be able to make my name up on the industry I'm in
8. Get my dad a horse
9. Go on a Euro trip
10. Bag packing
11. Get shit faced drunk
12. To have a wedding ceremony like no other
13. Be able to ram the accelerator of a Formula 1 car
14. To have coffee with a famous person
15. Invent something on my own
16. Fly a plane
17. Be able to motivate someone to succeed in life
18. To be a dad

Well this is all that is in my mind and what I have taught so far, though I know some of it are ridiculous wishes and some are yet to be impossible, well I'm sorry my mind is just wondering and thinking crap! HAHA! so please do bare with my nonsense for this post

Wish to Return


It was a cold and quite night and as usually due to my sleeping disorder I'm wide awake at the hours that I should not be. So without wasting time, I force myself to get started with my assignment that is due next monday. At the same time I had the TV on so I had something to watch whenever I had nothing in my mind to put it into my assignment.

While watching the cartoon, a sudden flash back hit my mind, and it was a flash back that indeed I wish i could relive once more. I had the flash back of my very younger days in my life. Where I had nothing in my mind but cartoons, toys and afternoon naps. It was indeed the time I dearly miss.

Everyday my routine was as simple as coming back from school, have my lunch nap, waking up just in time to watch either Barney N friends or Power Rangers. Then my mom would pick me up from my granny's as soon she finish work. It was indeed a life where I need not to worry much about anything, No responsibility, no nothing.

At that age was also a age where the word "pain", "scared" and "impossible" did not exist in my dictionary of words, I remembered I could just jump down from our school stairs 1 floor up from the corridor, nothing would run through my mind as would i get injured from this, I never think of consequences not the negative outcome of it. If an idea pops in all we had to do was just carry on with it without thinking twice. The best part of it is, when we are so kicked into the fun and enjoyed what we were doing, pain did not existed to out feelings. Nothing hurt even it should have. It was the wonder of that age. I really do miss those times and just wish to re-live it once more if given the very chance to do so.

When Hunger Strikes

Ever wonder why is it when your hungry, but there is no food around and the weather is bad for you to go out? is it because God doesn't want you to eat? 

Its 11.15pm and I'm here starving!!! did a very bad mistake for eating too early. I had my dinner around 6pm and thats the bad time! The worst part now is there is no food at home for me to eat and the weather is just throwing cats and dogs onto earth. 

ARGH!!! there are some frozen food in the fridge thought is is just a small light at the end of the tunnel to my hunger, but thinking of the clean up I have to do after my satisfied meals just brings the mood down!!! 

Well just finish practice today and had a new drummer to the group which to me a whole lot of a big relive once more. At least the vision of us giving a good show for this years Youth Jam is going to be a promising one. Even we are not as good as other bands but our mission is to give out a clean and good show for the people who is there supporting us! Well do come for this year youth jam and enjoy yourself to music, dance and just plain fun!!! Come and release your stress with head bangs and maybe to an evening of sheer fun and excitement!!

It Will Never Leave


I was going through my picture library on my hard disk when I came a upon an album that named school. As I open it, memories came flooding into my mind, as if it was a tsunami hitting a small island. Gushes of memories came pouring into my mind, freshly recalled all fun and laughter, bitter and sadness that we as a class when through together for the entire five years in a school that we used to hate so much and to be dearly missed of it memories now.

School was a place that no kid ever loved going. Sending a kid to school is like putting a dog in a cage, we have never loved school for all thousands of reasons. At that moment we could easily pick up a pen and write at least 5 to 6 pages essay on why we hated school so much and could never even finish a 2 page homework. That was how much we hated school, but years has passed and we have finally gain out passports to leave school for good and move into our own ways in life, some to further their studies, some to take on the corporate world, and some just to take life easy.

Even dreams came true to all of us, but deep in our hearts we actually loved going to school. All the friends, the chicky and naughty stuff we loved doing and basically just to drive the teachers up the wall. I recalled we used to climb to the schools rooftop and running around like wild monkeys set free. Life is school was surely something that I will never forget, it was a place where life lessons were learnt and groom. I just loved the way how we took school day by day just so easily, nothing was to be worried. Seriously said, here is a clear comparison on how laid back I was back in school. I have a cousin and she is of the same age as me, Me and her were like heaven and hell, she was heaven and of course I was hell. She was the daughter and the student every teacher and parents of asian mind set dreamt off, and I was the one that every teacher and parent pray every night just to change. HAHAHAHA!! well actually i'm not that bad, just a little of a rascal I may say. Alright, it was SPM year, and yes every student were studying for their life, sacrifice of time for television, computer games and weekend outing to the mall to just stay home to read read read and read, hoping and praying to memorize every single fact and note to their brains.

As for us! HA!!! the boys of 5B Georgetown Secondary school, were having a honeymoon year, homework were never done till the ver next morning when we will wait for the smartest kid to walk in to class just to get his book to copy his work. Extra classes were extra after school hours for us to head on to cyber cafe to play some games. Well no matter how we still manage to get through SPM alright. I miss the guys from my secondary school the times we had were just priceless. All of our mind we just free from worries and stress and was just filled with fun.

Well I would love to share all the stories on the chicky-ness we had done before, but if were to do so. You will never ever finish reading this particular post! HAHAHA! alright then signing off for now!! WIll be back with more!!

Some Legends are Written In Blood

"Some legends are written in blood" a phrase that was once true during the Roman Empire and soon just a mere quote for the modern world. Spartacus, a character that is of justice and truth. A loyal and loving husband and a man of honor. This character has moved me to many sleepless nights to complete the entire series of "Spartacus" season 1.

Unlike many other series like Heroes, Sex and the City and the all time famous Friends. Spartacus is a series that has been a story told that relates to our world today. Even its time was during the Roman empire, where Gladiators was the main sport and entertainment. It does relates to us closely. During the roman times, there were masters, slaves and levels of status in society. Just like us here in the modern world, we are all gladiators or our mastered skills.

Like every gladiator before, some masters of the swords, some the spear, nets and hammers. It applies just on our mastery of out job and education, like lawyers, doctors, engineers, designers and so fort. These are our main skill thats helps up to battle out in the world to survive. The world is our arena and instead of spilling blood on sand, we work with ideas and creativity to climb up the leader and to be the champion.

The series showed much of a reality rather than a world that everybody dream to live in, like every living society and community there are people with ways and intention to raise to a higher status and some just to reach a certain goal. In the movie it portrays the dominus wanting to achieve power and domination over the empire that he would use his people to kill and to dominate, yet leaving his hands free from blood. Whereas coming back to reality of a recent time is just the same as corruption and power greed, where scandals are created to bring someone down and cover up of stories from the eyes of society.

You may think that I am talking nonsense by making a typical series to mean such relationship to us today, but after spending the many quite moments watching the movie and having time to think it through my mind, this what I have come to realise. That no matter how has time evolved and technologies advances, the pattern of mankind living as a community can never been erased. What corruption, or crime and unjust actions that were lurking among men for the pass 2000 years is still lurking at this very moment. May it be the new era of the 21st century thing has not much change.

With this, I shall end and do catch this great series on Cinemax or head down to your local DVD stall and get yourself a copy for the uncensored version if your living in Malaysia.
