4 more days to go...

*Good luck =)

4 more days to go...

Somehow it is quite hard to believe that things are finally coming to an end. Such a long sentence will soon reach to a 'comma' before the 'full-stop'. For all this while, I knew that I wasn't able to fully complete what I am expected to complete. But I didn't know that I am walking thousand miles away from the correct path. So off track till the extend that I can't even provide a summary for what I have been doing throughout this whole year. It is indeed very pathetic to have realize that you don't even understand what you are expected to understand at this very critical moment. Guess it will just be a 'here-goes-nothing' on that day itself with me standing in front, presenting something which will put everyone in confusion, including myself.

I should felt panic and nervous, but surprisingly I don even felt a single thing. Something is definitely wrong.

P/S: All the best, mechatronicians =). And congratulation to those who have completed their presentation.

慢？

*想。

为什么你永远都比别人慢？

慢？

不慢，只是自问没那样的能力。

也许决得它不应该是一种比赛。

只想让一切顺其自然，

也或许这是给自己失败的理由，

给于自己去逃避失败这事实的理由。

慢？

失败？

不懂。不想。累了。

再见啦。。。

*One of the best group picture =).

It was 2 in the midnight. As usual, was on my way home from sunway... It has been quite a few days going back home from sunway at such silent hour. The difference is that after going back home 'today', 'tomorrow' will be a totally different day and semester is starting soon. Unlike the days before whereby everyone, or personally myself looking forward to the remaining days they are spending here in M'sia. Tonight was rather a longer journey for me to drive home, because I intentionally slow down my speed, hoping that the time will slow down and allow me to reminisce all the things that happened throughout these 3 weeks.

*Guest of honour no.1

*Guest of honour no.2

*The Innova Rider (better than the name 'driver' isn't it)

*Where else if it wasn't this place, again =).

*and who else if it wasn't our Little Finger Princess.

Still remember the first day when I was waiting happily at home for their arrival from Ipoh. Then we head off to fetch another one before we continue our journey to Malacca. As soon as we arrive at Malacca, we were brought to fill up our stomach before we watched the very first movie in Malacca (I mean my very first movie in Malacca). Then, followed by dinner and supper, accompanied by some mind cracking IQ question. Not forgetting being a virtual farmer in the middle of the night =). The next day was all about singing K and taking photos. Well, I believe everyone of us enjoyed it. And we get to witness those ang-mo-kia started singing 没那么简单, non-cantonese speakers started to sing cantonese song FLUENTLY and lastly, we spent more than 10 minutes to sing out a so called acapella =).

*So let's embark on our 3 weeks journey, starting at Malacca.

*Our first food of the trip.

*The Malacca Fashion Show.

*hehe...

*Finally we get to sing K together =).

*Probably singing the lesbian-like song

*Epic face expression.

*Everyone look so african in this picture except for that pink pig pig XD.

*This is like one of the must do pose, isn't it?

*The Innova Rider needs some sleep after so many hours of driving.

Fast forwarding, here we are on our way to Ipoh... eh... not yet... *REWIND* we are at bing's house at night where everyone is busy BAO-ing wantan XD... and yet still did not giving up from being a farmer... Ok, back to Ipoh... We actually did not spent much time over there. Just roughly going to all the must go restaurants (as suggested by our Ipoh-kia) and some drive-thru shops. Then we had an extremely full dinner while laughing till our jaws drop when we saw our 30 years later reflection on the opposite table. Well, someday when we reached that age, I hope that we will see a 30 years ago reflection on the table opposite again =).

*Ipoh... here we come!

*I bet you don even know that this can be used in such a way after staying there for so long.

*Evening @ Ipoh.

Approaching Penang, I can hardly stop my ears from listening to that Penang girl talking non-stop all the way from where she was borned till kindergarten, primary, secondary, part time job, bla bla bla... haha... to be honest, you kept us entertaining throughout the entire journey from the Penang bridge to your house. And also you kept our stomach full and satisfied too, I mean at least I didn't spill out everything this time and brought back what I have eaten in Penang. OK, let's see what we have eaten. Hokkien mee la, mee jawa la, the-roti-canai-like food la, Pan mee la, curry mee la... Of course, not forgetting the time we spent at the beach at Batu Feringgi and had a visit to the Hard Rock Hotel. Guess only pictures can tell how much fun we had at these places.

*"hmm... what can we eat in Penang?"

*还没吃药.

*Batu Feringgi Beach !

*Cameo appearance... Jacquerine Hay...

*We basically have got nothing specific to do over there actually.

*Oh ya, you can actually have a horse riding there. Remember not to agree with his first offered price coz you most probably could ride for FREE!!! (It was just a joke anyway)

*Ok, this is definitely for free.. Stuffing sand into a coconut -__-".

*And sun bathing...

*OR... You might wanna throw your friend to the sea. That is even more fun =).

*I always thought that only dad can do this to their little children. Now I am wrong =).

*Dinner time!

*In front of Hard Rock hotel. Again, we look so african.

*Another favourite photo. Very natural.

*Buddy, you fail as being a ghost actor. And if you think this is an epic fail, look at the one next.

*-__-... where got ghost tongue so tiny-miny and small one... XD..hahaha...

*hehe.. Nice one...

*It took me quite some time to figure out what are they actually doing.

A mini farewell in Penang was quickly replaced by another reunion when both of you came down from north. And again, went to another sing K session. Get to meet up with a few friends who hasn't been keeping contact with for centuries. Then we went for dinner at New Paris and supper at Paramount, followed by a very 冒险 journey to locate our next morning breakfast (or perhaps lunch) destination. Although the initial gathering plan wasn't that successful, but at least we had a chill-ful shopping time for the day. At night, we get to witness the new-borned couple being teased till they hardly can give any further reaction. That night ended with quite a long winded story telling session by everyone of us, each contributing scattering pieces of memory throughout this entire journey to make it a complete one =).

*The second sing K session at Neway.

*@ Raju

*I was wondering, what is that statue actually? Banana? Tosai? Or roti?

*Just realize they are taking a group picture with the dessert.

*Even the 'god' spent time with us =). We are blessed.

*A group picture @ Pasta Zanmai.

*While waiting for bing to come.

It was few hours before you all are going back. Guess everyone is tired. Some took this precious time to get together with family before saying good bye. Some spent it in slumberland and some spent it chatting with friends and browsing through the photos of this entire 3 weeks. Dinner, packing and finally, on our way to airport. Had our last yam cha session at OldTown Kopitiam and some last photo-taking session. After exchanging gift, it is really time to say good bye. Everyone is being reluctant to leave, hoping that time could just stop at that very moment. But still, time is still tick-tokking, and the gate is closing soon. And you all will still have to leave.

*=)

It was 2 in the midnight. As usual, was on my way home from sunway... and I am reaching my house soon. It was indeed, one of my most memorable break throughout this 3 weeks. Like what has been said, gonna sapu everything. Guess we did it this time. We went to quite a few places, get to visit each and everyone's house, sing K, movies, eat. Oh ya, not to forget the ipoh pink pig story which gave everyone a great time to laugh together. Well, after all these laughter, it is again back to the normal life, busy with our own stuff and life will still have to go on. Hmm... comes to think of it, it is perhaps this limited time frame that made us appreciate the time we had together more. Anyway, I am really looking forward to the next holiday where we can get together again like this. Till then, see you and you all will be missed. Take care.

*You two will be missed... very much =(

*Looking forward to our next meet up.

P/S: To sos, thanks for the card.. I really like it a lot a lot. And forgive me for not being able to write too much on the card we have for you because I am afraid it might spoil our surprise plan. Anyway, hope you really like the pig pig rabbit we gave you. Don't know what to give you, so thought that you might miss us here and that will be sort of like an Avatar of all of us to accompany you. Remember to help that rabbit to clean his/her nose. Sos, to reply those thing you wrote in the card, Yes, I will accept it as a fact and time will heal. Don't worry, when I need someone to talk to I will definitely come kacau you =). About my language, hehe.. I will try to mind it while maintaining my jokes (if i have any)... Sos, do not be too sad in that far far away land ok? Chong woi and shirley are always on msn for you. Bing and the rest in aus are there for you as well. I wish you all the best in this coming semester and we will be meeting very soon again =). 再见啦...

*Will miss you very much, sos...

Tower

*This is quite random

Passing through the darkness, I finally found myself standing before a gigantic tower. Aside from the tower standing still right in front of me, green field and white cloud are what I am able to see at that moment. Neither do I know how tall is that building nor what is inside it, I decided to march towards the tower. As I walked closely to the door, a pair of hand stretch towards me. Without much hesitation, I raise my hand up to hold it.

Lies behind this door is a wide stretch of purely white hall with little decoration around. I slowly put my first foot step onto the marble floor. Everything is just clean and white without a single bit of dirt. The floor is freezing cold. Slowly, I walked through this hall while starring at each and every corner of the wall. Before I realized, two unfamiliar figures are seen walking side by side with me. I started to feel the warmth. Very soon, I came to the end of this hall, where I saw a stair connecting to the next level. As I was about to make my first step onto the stair, I was carried up by one of them and we slowly climb onto the staircase.

Similar to the first floor, the second floor is pretty much the same. In this level, I started to know the two of them more. And most importantly, I started to enjoy being here although I do not know where is this place. I just felt that this place is very comfortable. And without realizing, I came to another stair. This time, I told them that I would like to try walking on my own but they refused to let me do so. Finally, one of them gently carry me up and we proceed up onto the staircase into the next level.

In level 3 and 4, I started to learn how to communicate with them. They were amazed and happy when I called them for the first time. But at times, they were so angry when I wasn't being very obedient. As soon as I stepped onto level 5, the hall is no longer only the three of us. I started to see others running around like how I used to be when I was in the level below. And of course, the purely white wall started to have colourful decoration all around it.

Level by level, the decoration on the wall changed. And tiny bits of dirt can be seen around. The hall is no longer as clean as it was in the first level. Or rather I should say that, I have actually forgot how does the first floor looks like. But one thing I am glad, the two of them are still accompanying me side by side, giving me the warmth I need. As I entered Level 7, the wall started to have numbers and alphabets appearing on it. I was told by the two of them to read it carefully and try to understand them. As I goes up the level, these wall decoration tends to become more and more complicated and as usual, I was told to try my best to understand it as much as I can. Besides exploring on the wall, I do take my time to look around the hall and try to talk to them. Some are friendly, helpful and caring, while some are being quite cold towards me. Some walks with me along the hall, while some chose to keep a distance away from me. At the beginning of every staircase, I will have different groups of people accompanying me towards the next level.

Something wonderful happened when I was at Level 17. I was lucky enough to get to meet with someone who is willingly to walk side by side with me for as high as this tower can be. I was of course glad and happy at that moment. We have pass through several levels together happily. And I was drown in that happiness till the extend I forgot to hold others hand who have been walking side by side with me all this while. In times, we really enjoy walking together, but still argument do happen and we can only make it till level 19. I have passed through the entire hall in level 19 in deep sorrow and sadness. I do not even bother to look at the wall decoration on that level itself. The two of them are deeply sad as well to see me walking across the hall with tears on each and every foot step of mine.

Level 21 was rather a whole new level to me, as well as a level for me to learn to look back at the wall decoration that I have missed at the level below. It is in this level that I first walked on my own without the two of them, temporarily and I started to have more people coming towards me. Some are those who have once accompany me last time, while some are new faces that I have never seen before. The moment in Level 21 was a great one to commemorate and it will never be forgotten even when I reached to the higher level next time. No matter how great is it to be at this level, I will soon reach to the staircase which will lead me to level 22. I do not know what I will be seeing in that level, nor I know whether this group of people will still be with me on the next staircase, and I do not even know whether I can make it to the next staircase. But one thing that I know that, being in this tower at this very moment, I feel glad and thankful, for having all of you with me.
