Was watching this korean movie my housemate downloaded... didnt really understand much of the movie, but the food looked delicious and i was admiring all the men is suites. they look really smart in them. hahah... i cant wait till the end of the year when my sis' gets married, then i can wear a tux... 3 times!!! one in singapore, then KL and finally KK... i think i look pretty good in a tux.
yea! well today's weather was rather splendid... compared to the past 2 days. my ex-cell leader came to the city to visit me, how nice. yea, spend the whole afternoon with him and another ex-cell member of mine... took them for coffee and on the way back, i got a lil confused on the directions. Anyway! good to hear from them, but it was slightly different... he's so... ummm un-serious, yea well being the fact he's no longer a cell leader, he jokes alot this time... well , he tries to lar... but not raelly funny, but i still laughed lar... give face. hehehe...
yea... well i shall share with you all the benefits of gaining wisdom from God.
if you seek deeply for wisdom... then only would you be able to understand the fear of the Lord and receive the knowledge from God.
with wisdom, victory is in our hands, and it serves as a shield to us walking blamelessly against the enemy.
Through wisdom, we be able to understand what is right and just and fair... as wisdom enters into our hearts, therefore knowledge will be derived and be pleasant to our soul.
Wisdom will save us from the ways of the wicked men, whose words are perverse, as well as keep us far from the adulteress... from her seductive words.
Only with wisdom we be able to walk in the ways of good men and keep to the paths of the righteous... and of-course assures our ticket to Heaven!!
Yea... so thats the reason why i've been praying since young for wisdom... and i guess im still praying for it... coz ummm... i think im in desperate need for it!!
oh and i listen to the Stokovich Symphony live from the sydney opera house on the phone!! oh!! yea!!

my Sabbath day...
Prior to my active lifestyle... i have decided to take a breather and stay at home the whole day to do abit of house cleaning, mind relaxing meditation, reading while listening to soothing music... and rest my weary legs.
I've been really sporty the past few days... with swimming, basketball, volleyball, walking and a wee bit of sprinting. Yes!! Sporty I am, Fit i'll be!! well, my sporty days arent over yet... more to come i guess. gonna be playing tennis at some place near chapel street... and of coz with my sudden come back to the basketball scene, i shall be appearing slightly more frequently on the courts... yay! If this healthy sporty lifestyle goes on... i'll be really fit in no time, and mommy's really gonna lose on our bet. hahah....
well i met judy yesterday afternoon... and i'm such an idiot of not thinking to pass my air ticket to her to pass to my mom... shucks! things would be so much easier. a few people are going back to M'sia... and some of them asked if they could help bring anything when they come back. and nobody seems to able to comply my simple request... all i ask is for them to bring a couple of mamaks over. How hard could that be?! guess i'll have to do it myself.
well, its more or less mid way through my holidays... was interested in visiting this gallery at flinder's lane to check out one artist's works that i'm currently interested in. sadly i'm a months late for her exhibition... but i will go and check out the place nonetheless... this reminds me! i have to call up some of my friends for lunch/ coffee... promised them before the semester ended. shucks! im really such a procrastinator!! (i shall slap myself twice on the cheeks for procrastinating... well i would slap myself once on the right... but then if i do that, i guess i'm obliged to slap myself on the left as well... OUCH!!)

Rambling tummy...
Watched Shrek 2 yesterday... and it was really really really really really really really... FUNNY!! couldnt stop laughing!! the puss in boots was so adorable! hahaha.... funny funny funny.
yea... and finally i've tried korean food. well, it wasnt as spicy as i was told it should be. or maybe it was only one spicy dish, so the kick wasnt as hard it could potentially be. yum.
its really cold today... well surprisingly i woke up later than i usually did these couple of days. i just couldnt get myself off the bed... until my stomach really started growling.
well, and yesterday was a really sporty day for me!! i played basketball and volleyball!! hahah.. i feel so fit now!! its been really awhile since i played ball... and i kicked ass towards the last game... yea at the begining was still trying to adjust my skills... so it took awhile. and volleyball was.... okay... slightly painful to the arm. nonetheless, my team still had the upper hand!! weonly lost one game out of all the other games... hahaha!! yea baby!! we rock!! uhuh! uhuh!
anyway! my stomach is still growling... so ummm... you cant type on an empty stomach... eh?

the night we call it a day...
hmmm... with popular request, im currently asked to coach people how to play tennis... for free!! oh gee... whats a man got to do to put money in his pocket?! hmmm if the crowd exceeds more than 2, i think i'll have to start charging. im also considering on giving tuition... hmmm archi history tuition... its sort of a rip-off, coz you dont really need tutoring for history, its just studying and memorizing, but i guess if i'm gonna take up history tutoring, i better start reading up on the chapters... especially the ones im really terrible at, like Baroque, International style and asian. hmmm i guess it'll be fun, coz then i might probably learn new stuffs on the run. but thats still only on consideration.
today was generally a jolly day for everyone i think... even though the weather was pretty gloomy... and rainy... and cold... etc. but everyone seems to be generally happy. its my house turn to play host for dinner for my other friends today... we usually take turns once in awhile to cook and invite all us archi folks to gather and feast!! today my housemate made Bak Kut Teh!! it has improved throughout the months... which is pretty cool, more flavour!! yea... and desert was red bean soup... yum yum!! yum yum!! haha... if this goes on, im really gonna be fat in no time. have to start exercizing again... probably go swiming tomorrow in the morning. recently i've been waking up pretty early, which is good in a way. its healthy! but then there isnt much to do in the early morn, when everyone else is still sleeping. i woke at 5am today... and it was still really dark and cold... and i had no clue what so ever to do... i could do my quiet time... but for the whole 5 hours before church! ummm... not that ambitious yet, next time lar. yea so i decided to go back to sleep... and wake up 2 hours later... which was still quite early, 7am. yea... so if i wake up early again tomorrow, i think i'll go swimming... if im not too lazy and cold that is. hehe. its freezing!!
yea... tomorrows monday... hmmmm 2 more weeks before adelaide. yea, have to go down franklin street to get the tickets. oh this is gonna be fun! a bus ride with tasha! how exciting is that?! hehe... ei ju? dont worry ju, i'll take real good care of her... dont you worry. shes in good hands... hahahahaha!!! we'll go site seeing and stuff... its gonna be real fun!! (oh quit holding your fist... its not like you could do anything about it).
hey anton! hows the gathering over at kk?? did you all think about us? oops! reminds me... i better call Ben! im such a procrastinator!!... terrible terrible...
my life is going through a whole new phase now... which is pretty exciting!! and new... with the fact that i never saw it coming. but i guess its just what god wants our attitude to be... Not worrying of tomorrow, but live by today in itself...
i shall share with you this verse... i read this morning!!
The man who thinks he knows something
does not yet know as he ought to know.
But the man who loves God
is known by God.
1 Corinthians 8: 2-3
so comforting to understand, that its okay not to try understand everything... but just to leave it all in the hands of my Lord Jesus Christ!! coz i guess, as long as i know that He knows, then i guess... everything should be under control. And just have patience to wait on the Lord... cause answers will appear when it is to be revealed.

Isn't it Ironic... Don't you think?
My life can only be described in one word... Ironic. From the day i was brought into this world, and probably till the day i leave this planet.
1. I was neither born the eldest nor the youngest... instead in the middle.
2. I was born with curly hair unlike any other from my family
3. we were fed by the same mother n father, but i turn out to be fatter and the tallest.
4. We were nurtured by the same parents, i turn out to be different... (not really a pleasant past)
5. I loved art but ended up in a science stream class
6. I was expected to do A-levels in my own hometown, instead ended up at Taylor's college doing SAM at the very last minute
7. I told myself a million times that i would never date 0+1... ended up getting attached with her
8. Architecture was more or less at the bottom of the list, or probably never on the list of careers to pursue... in the end, my future lies in the hands of getting a Barch.
9. Melbourne Uni was the last place to be studying at. Now thats where im getting my Barch
and now.... hmmmmm.... Let's just say that Singaporeans and Medicine wasn't really my cup of tea... ;-)

Winter Wonderland...
Well... ummm... okay!
I have often walked down this street before;
But the pavement always stayed beneath my feet before.
All at once am I Several stories high.
Knowing I'm on the street where you live.
Are there lilac trees in the heart of town?
Can you hear a lark in any other part of town?
Does enchantment pour Out of ev'ry door?
No, it's just on the street where you live!
And oh! The towering feeling
Just to know somehow you are near.
The overpowering feeling
That any second you may suddenly appear!
People stop and stare. They don't bother me.
For there's no where else on earth that I would rather be.
Let the time go by, I won't care if I
Can be here on the street where you live.
oh and the DETROIT PISTONS are the CHAMPIONS!! hmmm... when pistons meet larry... thats like 14 years ago. yea! but i kind of have pity on the lakers. becoz of this embarassing lost... it was really a one sided final. having all those "super stars" on the team, you expect them to walk away with larry in no hassle... but somehow that didnt happen. Malone... injured, Kobe... plain sucked, payton... he was insignificant during the whole final, and O'neal... well one man cant bring down the whole pistons to pieces. yea, and becoz of that, the whole laker team is most likely gonna dismantled... Phil jackson... should be let go. Kobe definitely cant stay, adding to his sex scandal... the team wouldnt want that to ruin their reputatiion, Payton and Malone, defintely no ones gonna renew their contracts... i think. Free Agents once again... and all the other supposed supporting players maybe traded away... e.g. Rick Fox...its sad... really sad. thats the end of the Laker dynasty of the 21st century.... Whoa! then T-Wolves might win it next year!!!! okay.. spurs, kings, and mavericks as well... but Wolves has the stronger chance!! you bet!!

Seafood and Poetry... a dynamic duo
Todays was a real lazy day... took a shit twice, but i had to take few minutes to decide whether i wanted to loosen it all out, i mean i was too lazy to take off my pants and sit on the bowl, pushing and pushing... lots of energy wasted there. ANYWAY! it was a lazy day, was supposed to go down the city to pay a visit to the agents, the immigration office, etc... basically running errands... in the end i asked my housemates to help send the documents to the agent and etc... and i just stayed home and slept on my comfy mattress... practically the whole afternoon, dunno why i am so tired today... i eat regularly, sleep early... anyway, the only productive thing i did was marketing in the morning... yes, its my turn to cook! well today was seafood day.... i bought oysters... yummy... i tried this weird recipe, not sure if it exists... of wrapping the oysters with mash potatoes and cheese... and baked it.. it tasted okay... yummy actually. hahah! well i cant be slacking tomorrow... i have to get things done.
yeap! i think my adelaide trip is more or less confirm on... yea, cant wait! im gonna watch SPIDERMAN there!! and a whole lot of other things to do... cept i have to bear with being a lamp-post for the week... haha... then have to self entertain when them couple go for their private rendezvous... i think i'll have to work, to pay back on the holiday expenses after that.
a friend of mine sent a poem written by her... seems pretty interesting, mixing food and poetry together...
Oh oyu fail to understand
the sinful pleasures i derive
from the silence of my weary thoughts
the poetry of the moment
the garbled decomposed story plots
like a harbinger or an omen
so back to where i began this
i can only conclude
that only two things make me happy
and they are poetry and food (yum)
one creates the other
the latter will prescribe
the source of inspiration
that the former will imbibe
poetry and food!
oh... a lethal combination
like cannabis, it leaves you with
unequivocal sensation
not that i have tried the stuff
honestly i haven't
but really, poetry and food
almost equal heaven!
well... i do agree food=heaven. and it does sort of compliments each other... for inspiration! where would good poetry be without the source of food!! feeling very hungry now... oh! thats why i have milk and cookies right beside me!!
tomorrow is game 5 of the NBA finals!! this time i shant miss it!! its the game of the season!! the very deciding match of who will take home the trophy and glory!! i shouldnt underestimate the lakers... but down 3-1... its really impossible to turn things around... not with the pistons playing such defense... remarkable! whoa! this pistons team is so much alike with the 80's lineup... i mean there's Rip Hamilton= Joe D, C. Billups= Isaiah Thomas, Ben Wallace= Dennis Rodman... i cant remember the rest of the 80's team... but R. Wallace rocks! though i do tend to worry bout his unpredictable emotion... nonetheless he's got passion for the game!! i find myself rather ironic... being the fact that i play tennis... but follows closely to the NBA and not the ATP. well for one thing i just found out that, Billie Jean King, Mauresmo and Martina Navaroltina (whatever) are all Lesbians... ugh! then again, all three of them arent the hottest babes on tour and it explains why them 3 are really the hard house of the tour... especially Martina, 40 plus and still going for it.. even steffi can't pull a feat like that.
Anyway, i better go do my quiet time before i go to bed... long day tomorrow. i hope.

tribute to the maid in maDhattOn...
I'm as happy as a King... umm actually im not sure bout that. i sacrificed todays game 4 match... to watch harry potter... and it was quite a dissapointing one, i think this would be my last harry potter movie... then again hermaine is getting prettier... oh gee... im in a real dilemma now!!
Great news!! Pistons is now up 3-1 in the series!! hope wednesday should be the icing of the cake!! hahaha!!! kobe really stinks!! yea now i know why i hate the lakers... coz kobe is one of the most lousy ball hog in the world... only jordan qualifies to be the ultimate ball hog... kobe... should just raise his assists stats... terrible fella. ANother great news!! France kicked ass!! england... boohoo... anyway i knew that france was surely gonna pulverize england... i mean... its england... they speak in british accents... how well do you expect them to play with those sort of accents... sigh. its ashame that france beat england with only one goal... i expected some sort of hat-trick by Henry... but anyway, a wins still a win... hehe.
hmmmm... then again, i'm feeling very english today... i watch 2 english movies... one was harry potter... then later went over to one of my friends place to watch this film called "love actually"... i thought it was that movie starring the Star Wars fella and the Bridget jones diary gal... apparently that movie is called "down with love"... wonder how i got mixed up between the 2 titles.... ANYWAY! love actually... was actually a pretty nice movie... the movie depicted different sorts of love affairs... bla bla... yea, i especially loved the Father & Son... on top of that the father was an Architect... haha and the son can play the drums... cute cute!! was wondering when i do become a daddy... wonder how am i gonna handle the situation when my son falls in love... tough call. oh Hugh Grant is really good looking... i wish i was as good looking as that... he's so goofily dashing... oh gee (stares at the mirror)... deary me... one day.... when i become the prime minister of msia... haha...
was talking to my maid on the phone a moment ago. i was telling her that i cooked over here at aussie. with disbelieved she said "temberang"... aik! she is so evil in her words... i must prove to her on my newly acquired culinary skills. she's a fun maid to play with and to bully... i remember that i always try to scare her from behind while she prepares lunch/ dinner sometimes... and usually i always succeeded... and she be real frightened... and threatens to stab me with the knife she was holding... well usually around that time i would run all the way to my room in fear, but be still laughing. nowadays shes smarter, realizing she can detect my sneakiness through the window reflections... but hey! she scares me too!! usually to the extent of me screaming in shock! one time she caught me by surprise by the stairs with her wearing a facial mask... i really thought it was a ghost!! awgh!!
She's always scolding me... no wonder i usually call her "kakak", when my siblings usually address her by her name. i like talking to her, i mean because i get to speak malay... indon style! and sometimes when im bored at home, i'll watch tamil/ hindi films with her... or be fighting over the remote control! she always wins, being the fact she starts sulking and i have no choice then. and she NEVER EVER helps washes the car for me... she helps the rest of my family members... but not me! haha and i enjoyed those chats we have that usually ends to no where... but at-least i got to speak in malay. she knows all my tricks, and seen all the idiotic things ive done and can do (orchestral conducting, freaky dances...etc), she knows what i like to eat... and sometimes cooks the opposite just to irritate me, never stops teasing me, listens to almost all my songs in the shower... and scolds me after that, recognizes all my friends who had visited my house (especially Brian and Hungcai... oh and julius the shorty. muahahah i miss those midnight stonings at my house), she knows some of my secrets and stashings that my parents will never ever know... Gosh! she knows more than i know she should!!!
Geez, i know what are you all thinking... who on earth writes about his maid in his blogs?!
haha... but she's already like family... i still have that t-shirt she bought me during her holiday back at her home country... deary me... i wonder if she's already attached to that guy by the time i get back. thats if she finally can decide which guy she wants...
her favourite line on me... "ko ni sam.....!!!!!" muahaha...
Great news!! Pistons is now up 3-1 in the series!! hope wednesday should be the icing of the cake!! hahaha!!! kobe really stinks!! yea now i know why i hate the lakers... coz kobe is one of the most lousy ball hog in the world... only jordan qualifies to be the ultimate ball hog... kobe... should just raise his assists stats... terrible fella.

She's always scolding me... no wonder i usually call her "kakak", when my siblings usually address her by her name. i like talking to her, i mean because i get to speak malay... indon style! and sometimes when im bored at home, i'll watch tamil/ hindi films with her... or be fighting over the remote control! she always wins, being the fact she starts sulking and i have no choice then. and she NEVER EVER helps washes the car for me... she helps the rest of my family members... but not me! haha and i enjoyed those chats we have that usually ends to no where... but at-least i got to speak in malay. she knows all my tricks, and seen all the idiotic things ive done and can do (orchestral conducting, freaky dances...etc), she knows what i like to eat... and sometimes cooks the opposite just to irritate me, never stops teasing me, listens to almost all my songs in the shower... and scolds me after that, recognizes all my friends who had visited my house (especially Brian and Hungcai... oh and julius the shorty. muahahah i miss those midnight stonings at my house), she knows some of my secrets and stashings that my parents will never ever know... Gosh! she knows more than i know she should!!!
Geez, i know what are you all thinking... who on earth writes about his maid in his blogs?!
haha... but she's already like family... i still have that t-shirt she bought me during her holiday back at her home country... deary me... i wonder if she's already attached to that guy by the time i get back. thats if she finally can decide which guy she wants...
her favourite line on me... "ko ni sam.....!!!!!" muahaha...

Sheepishly Smiling...
i was stoning for about an hour before i finally got out of my bed and did stuff. was just staring aimlessly at the ceiling light up in my room... imagining it flashing at me. im such an idiot... hahah!!
i shall share with you all this very special letter! the significance of this letter is because it was written by my DADDY!! he rarely writes... probably my mom was sick of being his secretary to write the mails for him...
Hi Sam
We are very pleased to know you are ok. Away from home, it requires
self
discipline to take care of yourself. Eat at the right time and proper
food.
In the event of sickness, see a doctor. Your uni insurance is there to
cover
such contingency.
Yesterday (Sat), Mom and I attended Paul's graduation. It was another
moving moment for us parents. Seeing another kid of ours finishing the
secondary/preU education is both a happy as well as sad moment. We are
glad
that he had finally completed another phase of his life and are now
preparing to enter into another phase. I was particularly touched by
the
graduating students' representative's speed. " After 18 months together
in
Institut Sinaran, this day is the last day we are together under one
roof.
After this we will be moving our separate ways". Truly, those times
spent
together would never come back again. This is what I believe should be
one
of our attitudes in life. Any time we have to spend with family
members,
relatives and friends should be seized and treasured. This
moment/memory
would never return again.
The night Paul finished his last paper on 9.6.04 (Wednesday), we took
Paul
out for a meal. We wanted to celebrate with him the ending of a phase
of
his secondary/preU phase of life as he entered into another. We wish
that
we can do this to all our 3 children as they enter each stage of life.
Pre4U, Uni, into marriage etc.
We send you here some once in a life time moment of Paul's graduation.
See
the photo ! Paul was fortunate to have the support of more than the
parents !
Dad
i miss my dad, i was telling one of my friends today about how when our family plays TABOO... my parents usually team up together either with me or my brother and would go against my sister and her fiancee... haha my parents are really cute, my dad blames my mom for every single reason... when he couldnt guess the answer right, he would blame my mom for poor explanations, when my mom couldnt guess the answer, then he would blame yet again that my mom is very slow and cannot make it... but truthfully his explanations on things sometimes are very hopeless lar... cant wait till we can play TABOO again as a family.

Sleigh Ride together with... Duffy [Dreams of a closet fan]
i think i pulled a muscle during my attempt to touch the ceiling...
ANYWAY!!
i am ashamed of myself.... i copied a whole set of HILARY DUFF mp3s from my housemate. when i heard the songs playing... i got all coocoo and straight away requested to copy all the songs into my laptop! oh gee... i feel so poppy now... but shes cute... and ummm cute?
ever since i had this really freaky and weird dream of me bumping into Hilary at the LRT... things changed... the very next day i started downloading her wallpapers and MP3s... how shallow can i be?! probably it was some sort of vision! but it was a nice dream... she looked so adorable in the lrt with the beret, baby T and jeans... i cant remember the whole procedure of how we got to know each other... but later on in the dream... we became sort of "lovers"... (note: this wasnt a wet dream)... yea, i vaguely remembered the whole dream... all i know is that after the whole thing... i became so duffy... i suddenly could make conversations with one of my archi juniors who was a Duffy fan... ugh! i thought i was all over with the whole duffy frenzy... apparently not... in fact im listening to her MP3s at his very moment... looping the whole set of songs over and over again.... SOMEBODY SAVE ME!!!
hmmm... its a good thing i havent deleted all the wallpapers of her... heheh... oh yea... i was also crazily head over heels with the MTV veejay- Denise Keller as well... she's hot... i literally bought all the female mags that had her on the cover... i was too embarrased to buy them that i usually would ask my female friends or sister to help purchased the latter. well another reason i was excited on visiting Singapore was to hope i might just bump into her... my whole life would be in topsy turvy... chances are a 100 to 1... but hey! atleast there was still a chance... nvm... i still have another chance during my next trip to singapore!!!
but i guess it was these sort of fantasies that helped me stay single the whole of last year... too busy dreaming of the impossible that i didnt really bother of the reality.
please erase everything that you had read in this blog from your head!

Julius is so LAME...
Im really full now... just had my dinner!! i had mutton, fish, pork sausages, lunchean meat... its a very meaty dinner. yea so now im really feeling fat and lazy... cant study, my brains all clogged up with meat... uh?
ANYWAY! was at the library today... Finally! Law is starting to make sense... yea, feeling slightly more confident for thursday's paper now... well it was more enjoyable to read it today... yea. Then my way leaving the library, i bumped into one of my cell mates... whoa she's really funny... only 16... insisting that she's overly matured for her age... well look wise probably.. hehe. yea, being 16 she's really despesperate to get into a relationship... didnt remember i was like that when i was 16... i was carefree!! well i did have crushes... but never indulging myself into getting into relationships.. was i? So yea, she was trying to psychoanalyze me on relationships... trying to figure out what type of gal would i want... and bla bla... but wonder how did the whole conversation ended up talking about, sports, pets, studies... etc... she really has alot to say. well i did mention to her that... you can only be ready to be in a relationship when you can be independant and love your singlehood... only then you are prepared to get yourself tangled into one when you learn how and able to live your life independantly, without depending on others... (does this make sense? its very general eh? no wonder she didnt agree with me) anyway, she was really very long winded... in the end i started psychoanalyzing her for a bit. i should had just left when i had the chance. heres a song dedicated to her... adapted from the sound of music:
you are 16 goin on 17...
baby i think u should wait
dont try to think of so many things
thats ir-relevant to you
you are 16 going on 17
pls concentrate in ur studies
no point in wishing getting attached
when F is the grade u get
pressured and crazy u can be
if you would think too much
old and lonely u might be
if you expect too much
you need someone older and wiser
telling you to hit the books
i am 21 going on 22
i'll stay away from you...
hahaha... oki i better hit the showers before i head for the books!!

Lazy, Hazy, Crazy... days of Judgement.
2 more days then its my one and only paper for the semester. law is sooooooooo boring... its so hard to fix and concentrate your mind in reading all the texts, as well as memorizing it!! ugh! im partially stressed now...
ANYWAY! went to the bank today... and to my dismay! there was no money in the account!! whoa im really broke now!! just hope all these $$ issue would be settled ASAP. then i went to bank in my housemates rent $$ in my bank account... whoa the bank lady was so irritating... kept asking and insisting i should insure my apartment... blah blah!! wonder why did i give in and hung around listening to the whole how-to-get-insured talk...
whoa! 6 more months till christmas!! i cant wait... i've already started downloading christmas songs from the net.. aahhah just downloaded Nat King Cole's version of Frosty the Snowman... the back-up singers are so cute... they sound like lil birds chirping... when they sing the chorus part.
i've really nothing much to type here... i think i must be really sleepy & dreamy... hmmm i'll continue studying later in the morning!! time is running out now...
well i guess im happy that the PISTONS managed to steal one home game from the lakers... yea, as long as they are champions... that would be most comforting... i despise the Lakers... noparticular reason why... but i guess it be great if the East side would gain a championship again... since the Chicago Bulls era.
oki i better stop here... theres not much to think about... except... hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Things i'll never say...
DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE!!! ugh!! i wanna go to heaven at this very instant... (i know i shouldnt be saying these sort of things... God may just strike a thunder right into this very room... but then again he wouldnt, that defeats the whole purpose of me staying in planet EARTH) He's so smart... this is a very unusual day of me having mood swings... rare indeed!! after all these swingings... by now i should be winning.. ei? swinging when your winning? oh im so so so full of crap now... i think i shall go for a swim later... after dinner before i continue studying.
the whole day, the word suicide crossed my mind... not that i wanted to... but it was just thoughts... i might be having my first period... but im a guy?! thats impossible... maybe im mentally tired... why should i be? oh i don't know... i have no reason to be frustrated either... freaky, deaky, leaky... oh gee... peace b with you Ronald Reagen... send regards for me tp everybody when your up there. i really wish im in Heaven at this very instant... at this very moment im hoping a big fiery carriage would just swoop down and carry me away... then again what have i done to deserve this privilege to enter into heaven's gate now... shucks! im trying to remember the name of that guy in the bible, where he was chased by soldiers and so he prayed to God for help, and God came and swoop him up straight into heaven... awesome.
im having a real sour face now, angry eyes... sulking lips... head tilted to one side... and now im shaking my head in despair... i AM really pathetic.
when i become an architect... i wanna be able to help those designer outlets design their stores/ boutiques... Armani... Hugo...prada... etc. Rem Koolhaus practically designed all the Hugo boutiques... then John Pawson designs most of them CK boutiques... hmmm i shall design all them Armani Stores... A/X, Emporio, giorgio... that be so cool... my whole wardrobe would be all Armani... classy... GAYA, MUTU, KEUNGGULAN
during dinner time i ahd this funky idea of the dining table being the morning papers!! its like the table made of this transparent screen.. and everyday the papers are screen onto the table... and you can read your morning news on the table... no need to flip the pages and get your fingers all smudge with ink... no dog drool all over... no broken windows... no undelivered or wrongly delivered paper... alls in the big table screen... and thats the best way to keep them trees alive!! there was a mob today at the streets... protesting and fighting for the trees or something... holding them huge posters of badly drawn trees... well i guess artists wouldnt be joining in the crowd... their lives are dependent on paper... like me!! papers are so useful... you can write and leave nasty notes on it or write sweet love letters, draw on it... fold it into anything you like... make them into lil bullets to lastik on people... its eadible... keep you out from the cold... wipe your ass with it... blow your nose... wrap your food with it... clean your mirror with it... as a disposable carpet... use it as a furniture... play slam dunk with it... blah bleh bluh!!
i better go do the dishes... tomorrow is pre-winter cleaning time!! the agents are coming to check the place on wednesday.. so we have to make sure the place is in good condition before they arrive... which i think theres lots of work to be done!! plus i desperately need to go to the bank this time... im broke!! and i better head to the archi building to collect back my stuffs... before they throw it all away... heck! let them throw lar... oh wait! the MODEL!! i think im gonna put it up for sale... okay its up for bidding... starting at $10... any buyers?? hmmm or mayb i should sell it to one of the galleries in the city... i think they'll be interested... YEAP!!!!or mayb i should sell it to Armani... he might like the design and offer me to design all his boutiques around the world!! oh im so so so full of crap... probably i have to take a crap later... ugh! you see!! i think i shall go for a swim... but its too cold!! hmmm mayb i'll eat those marshmallows which is sitting there right in front of me... YUMMY!!

Needless to say...
I managed to stroke a possum today... thats pretty cool. usually these little critters would just run away everytime i set like 3 feet away from them... but this time or probably this particular possum was just a lil friendly/ hungry... yea so i managed to get my hands on it... Yeap, just came back from a walk... im quite adventurous eh? not bad... not bad... took a stroll down to "marvel" at the architecture of the Fed Square... finally i can say i've been there!! but its probably different from the day time, atleast i've really seen it... then i visited the Parliament... its... very.. umm victorian... yea... u dont get to see these sort of buildings in msia... so it was pretty cool... then i just wandered around the city... its really cold!! being a fact that i only wore 2 layers... ugh! i realised theres alot of mini art galleries around the city... yea i've decided after my exams i'm gonna visit all these lil galleries and just look at these art pieces... though i might not have a single clue of appreciating art... i shall still do it... for the sake and love of ART!! as well as to consume the architecture of the spaces.
im so happy my sister called yesterday... it was a long chat... and its funny, being the fact of the conversation we had.. its strange in a good way... atleast the bond of trusts and openess is there... being the fact that i use to not be very comfortable to share most of my private lifes to her... afraid of her being a teller and feeling uneasy... then again i was more of the sort of nosy one... rambling through her private stuffs... heheh sorry bout that! it was out of boredom then... dont worry... your secret is safe with me... umm not really actually... but thats as far as it would spread!! ;-)
Ping Pong is FUN!! yea... i cant wait till thursday ends... then finally its really the end of the semester... lots of things i can do!! haha!! well atleast i know that i passed my Design Studio!! not sure bout the grade... but i guess its not so important for this semester, coz i think most of my results are just so-so... no high expectation... yea my tutor send an email to all of us... regarding how privilage it was to have studio with us and that we all passed!!
im very pleased with myself now... just hope i wont screw up my practice this coming thursday... and just hope i'll pass Theories!!

hmmm just came back from a walk with my RMIT friends... whoa its been awhile since i had conversations on just architecture... all 3 of us just enjoyed each others company basically just discussing the A's to Z's of architecture, and then we walked all the way to my archi faculty to check out the final year students works for inspirations... whoa i tell you, i'll never be bored of staring at their works... every new encounter brings a totally new meaning of perceptions in the drawings... one by one we jsut started analyzing each of the works... beautiful.
hmmm... called 0+1 today... its been a long while since i did, well actually i finally made the call becoz i received an ICQ msg from her saying where am i and long time i never contacted her... and therefor i was obliged to do so... yea she was happy to hear from me... and it was good to hear from her again... hmmm she's leaving to UK next week... thats pretty far away... we had a long chat on the phone... haha she's so funny... from how's life to Sponge Bob square pants... shucks! i really miss that show... i really really do!! its one of the most idioticly funny show... she used to bribe me into hanging out at her place to watch that show... im sooooo easily manipulated by all these cheap entertainment... sad. but im glad we're still friends after we ended the whole thing... its good... i know alot them couples who broke up and became very bitter about the whole issue... i cant do that... i wont feel right and comfortable of ending a relationship as well as a friendship that could still go on...
ANYWAY!! hmmm i wanna go back to kk!! majority of them peeps will be there.... but anyway... i still can have my small gathering with jules at Adelaide... haha... im gonna whip your ass in tennis!!

Greatly inspired!!
Finally... its over... it was a really long week... being the fact that i was so badly yearning for the week to end, then again it was rather short... never enough time to finish all the work!! not really that satisfied with my work... though the model is pretty cool... this is a new record for me, only slept like 10 hours this whole week... im good... eh? i think it'll get worse as time goes by. this is the first time o see lots and lots of students work around all pinned up... unlike back in taylors where there were only a bunch of us... not much surprises there, coz we've been seeing each others work for like the whole semester... but having a big studio... theres room for lots of variety!!
But i was truely inspired by the senior's work!! they were having their presentation at the main atrium... and all the drawings and presentation stuffs... are really really beautiful and refine. i tell you, once i was down there admiring the works... i was really reluctant to go back up to our 3rd year studio... its really embrassing... how much we lack in everything... their photoshop and hand skills are really amazing... and lots of money is really spent on these sort of stuffs... i was told that the average cost per year on just printing is almost around 1000AUD!! crazy! but they are dedicated people... and i was contemplating on how i would be when i get to final year... the drawings are really beautiful!! just thinking about their drawings makes me truely inspired and fortunate that im doing architecture... it really pays off. architecture is just one profession that can drive your creativity... my presentation ended around 6++... but i stayed at the final students gallery just gazing at their magnificent works!! i wanna be like taht NOW!!
now i've really got together what im gonna do during the hols...
1. Refine and do my portfolio
2. re-watch the whole Matrix Trilogy + Animatrix
3. master my photoshop skills
4. study even detail architecture drawings
5. im gonna have my own winter design project... still thinking what to do...
6. re-read my "Architecture- the subject is matter" book
7. Learn this new CAD software... VECTORWORKS!!
8. Visit the architecture here at melb... especially the museums and galleries
9. refine more on my hand sketches
10. and sleep...
haha!! im a really happy man today... not sure why. probably the fact that my design studio is finally over... and was truely mezmerized by the fine articulation of the seniors' works!! wish i could take them home and re-read through all the drawings... nolar i just want their SKILLS!! since im so happy... i shall sing you all a song!!
If your happy and you know it clap your hands, CLAP CLAP CLAP x2

Panda Eyes... in a Sleepless Building, with A muffin for breakfast!!
Whoa! its 6:20am... back at the lab again... was at the studio touching up my model and taking photos... the model is... big. there was only one word that could describe it when people saw the model... which is.. "jesus.." probably they saw jesus as they gazed upon my model... so i guess its true what Mies Van der Rohe says that "GOd is in the DETAILS"
i really hope i can get atleast a H2 for my studio... it be just unfair... and unjustified if i dont... then again... probably there are others who did much more and much much better than me... like my other hard-working tute mates...
Was washing my face in the toilet... almost couldnt recognize the person in the mirror... those huge balck panda eyes were enormous... so i decided to play with my panda eyes on the mirror... opening my eyes as big as i could... making scary faces... but then it got abit too creepy... and so i stopped...
its really cold today... its raining outside... i'll be freezing if i were to walk home right now... its a good thing i met a new friend today... he's a vietnamese... and his name is... Pham Man Viet... cool eh? good to have company, once awhile i'll go check on him and his drawings... and just be praising his brilliance of fine drawn lines. it took him awhile before he could get my name right... and in the end he still couldnt... so i told him to just call me Sam... da man!! yeap... he's whacked too!! all hand drawings!! but atleast he's not required to do a model... but man hand drawings take a really long time to finish... respect, respect... im not so bad either lar... im using CAD... hand drawings and a model... quite POWER also... ;-)
the Archi Building is me second home... and the people in it are my family... whoa... this building never sleeps!!

Its Raining.. its Pouring... I look so Appalling.
trying to put songs in my head now... its really hard to do work in silence, especially when your dead sleepy and very very very very very very very very very very very very very.... sien. well i manged to get 6 hours of sleep tis morning...from 6-12... however it stll seems not enough... bought myself a whole box of UNCLE TOBY's nutri bars... 6 diff flavours...and ofcoz blueberry muffin!! oh yummy dummy funny!! i assume i'll be stuck in the labs for the night i guess... and later go over to the studio to take photos of the model... (oh gee... my singaporean friend has left the building, he was good company) again... misery loves company... just like the song by the Moffats (wonder what happened to them):
Misery is what I feel
When you're not around
So I can't heal
Misery is what I feel
Is what I feel....
i realised that med students are rather different from archi student in an outward look appearance... i was on the way to the med library to deliver some stuffs to my friends, and on the way pass by a series of med buildings... and all these funny aliens passing me by... they all looked different... the guys are much cleaner and well shaved, where the gals are relatively petite and short... as i was heading back to the archi building... things got pretty much familiar... tall stoned people eluding around... un-shaved faces... messy hair... bla bla... its a faculty culture thing i guess.
Heck! why didnt God make me good looking!! so i could mesmerize my tutor to make things easier for me... with those good looks and charm... probably i could get her to do some of the drawings... and presentation tips!! im really desperate eh? okila!
yea... sorry about you peeps! i'll get those email replys ASAP... probably right after this week... yea anton! sorry bout me delays in the mails...
im sleepy...
