Pokemon Cards...Gotta Collect Them All (well, not)

Can someone tell me, how rare are these Pokemon cards?

Larvitar, Dark Pupitar and Dark Tyranitar

And this one....Team Rocket Articuno EX

Seriously........I don't know.

My Mum Is My Dad

Ok my dear readers, noticed anything strange (apart from the cencored IC numbers and birth cert. numbers)

Hmmm....no?

What about this one?

C'mon, you all smart kan? Generasi hebat mah......right? Riiiight?
=.='' fine.....

Nama bapa/Penjaga : Lucy Leong Yoke Mui (mak aku)

Sigh, I tell you my Sijil Berhenti Sekolah from the school is so pathetic, you wouldn't believe it at all.

At least.......Kelakuan, BAIK :D

Urrgghhhhh

=.=, I really don't get it.

I said,

"I might not have found it yet, but the instruction manual never stated a preset button."

Means

I will find (the preset button) soon, but the drivers manual book never tell me where is it.

And since I got used to driving my parents car for months, I forgot to state that their car audio has Sony Xplod player installed, cuz' the instruction manual for THAT PLAYER stated where is the equalizer.

That's why I said, I wish it was like the old car (Honda city...1997, not the new one) cuz I am able to find the button without any problem.

As for my new car, tu manual tak da cakap, or MAYBE I didn't read properly and I didn't try every single button on the 4-DIN head unit. Because I was WORRIED things may go haywired.

Thus, after asking Kent, he BARU TELL that it is the radio frequency tuner, and all I have to do is PRESS IT A FEW TIMES to adjust my bass, treble, balance and so. Thank you Kent.

SO IF you think I am COMPLAINING, think again please. I'm not angry, just that....urrghh.

*nasal/sinus spray* aahhhhhh thank you.

Preset Button?

You know, after getting myself familiarized with the Toyota Vios, I finally found out the one button that is important for me while listening to my songs, the audio preset button.

I might not have found it yet, but the instruction manual never stated a preset button.

=.=, sometimes I wish it was like the Honda City

Happy New Year WHOOOO!!!

Happy New Year WHOOOO!!!

Summary of 2009

Ok peeps, highlights for the year 2009 :D

January....

Highlight of that month...my birthday. LOL every year looking forward to celebrate with my closest buddies in school. This year is also the last year able to celebrate in school with classmates and the rest. It was a memorable one for me, I remember Weng Joe requested Cik.Nazeema to ask the whole class of 5 Teknologi 2 to sing a song to me. Was really moved though, it was a wonderful birthday celebration. Kyle, Tom, Cheng Heng, Peter, Gan Yang and me had Left 4 Dead gaming session. Still got owned by tanks :(

Thanks guys for making my day :D

February.....

Got my very own first desktop as a birthday present from my dad for college (damn early right?) And also bought my first drawing tablet (with my very own ang pau money). *HEARTS* the Wacom Bamboo Fun.

Whee.....

March.....

Also had a blast at UCSI's Earth Hour event. Band was rocking good, everyone started to blow each other's candles and everyone was H-I-G-H.
The campus.

Hui Xian and Me.

Oh yeah, not to forget that I got an award for best class position in my class. Don't know what's the big deal but my parents were indeed very happy O.o?

Yeah being part of the school's U-18 handball team was awesome but leaving you sitting out for the whole tournament can really be a pain in the ass for you. LOL, was dropped out from first team to reserves and watched the team lose all 2 games. But anyway, at least I got my own jersey.

Sitting out for the whole tournament and getting your newly bought white shoes just for the tournament dirty, priceless.

Oh yeah, in the month of March Darshini and I stayed back after school for debate discussion and it was a shocking day. There was this boy name Raven, Indian, might look very innocent to you but infact he is a ver dangerous boy. While the janitor complained someone threw books from the 3rd floor, I then found Raven hiding at the corridor along the 3rd floor, gave chase and caught him. Headmistress Halimah took his bag, to my surprise, found a butcher's knife. A fucking butcher's knife!!

Oh yeah, one more thing, I got 48/50 for undang test, which was frickin' awesome cuz previosly, I failed 3 times at home while doing mock test.

April......


On the 4th of April 2009, the Mak family welcomes a cute little hamster to our home, meet Mac. I adopted Mac from this form 1 girl through Gan Yang called Ng Sin Ying. Among all of the hamsters, Mac was very very quiet and adorable and chubby :D

Awhhhhh, ain't Mac adorable with her running wheel in her cage?

Oh yeah, pierced my left ear, for the 3rd time again =.="

Moral project was awesome, never in my schooling days I've enjoyed the torture and headache and bullshitting that our country's secondary moral school project can bring.

Look how exciting can Moral project be....

I'm sure Kyle was excited too. Could have, would have and should have been excited.

Honestly, all the pictures of me sweeping the floor, mopping the floor, washing the dishes, wiping the windows, making bed and so, bullshit acting.

Until we have to let off steam of what's left in our fragile little mind, then only we can resume being normal teenagers. For example, a good healthy activity like "Catch the Rubbish Bag That is Thrown Far Far Away" is recommended for people who are stressed out after a day's work. Especially to 9-5 office workers.

Every year I'll lend a hand to help Hui Xian's mum in Tadika Mayter's Anual Sports Day. It was fun of course, babysitting the kids. Gosh they are so adorable. Here's a memorable picture of me surrounded by sweet angels (note : kids that can give you hell anyday of the year)

You know, it feels good to be tall :D

Oh yeah, as for SMK Seri Mutiara's choir team, we qualified for Pudu Zone's Top 5 in the National Secondary School Choir Competition.

May......

One of the highlights for the month of May, our school choir got 2nd place in Pudu Zone, was soo close to represent for the Wilayah Persekutuan Finals.

Thanks YiVonn, thanks Eve for guiding us. Final year and got a very good end for choir. Loved the practices we've been through.

Started my driving lesson, sucked at the clutch but after the 3rd lesson, mastered it all....

Stayed up for the Manchester United-Barcelona Champions League Final just hours before my art exam. Staying up late and watching Manchester United lose so bad against Europe's best football team is a bad night.

June......

Thank God for Nuffnang :D It was the first time I enter a competition and I wanted that Transformers 2 Movie Premiere so badly until i dedicated a blog post about how awesome Transformers is to me.

And I managed to get 2 tickets to see the epic metal orgy movie with a buddy.

In the month of June I also failed my first driving exam. I lost it at the slope. But at least Transformers 2 the movie cheered me up :D

And after the movie, posted the spoilers on Facebook. Spoiled quite a number of friends who wanted to watch the movie, especially Ian and Yu Kin.

In the world of entertainment and showbiz, the world mourns the lost of the best entertainer and dancer, the one who set the record for the number one selling album, "Thriller" with more than 50 million copies, Michael Jackson

And hor....government so sayang me until select me for National Service :(

July......

The month of July started out awesome. I'm one of the debaters representing the school for the Pudu Zone debate school competition, and surprisingly, we made it to the Final but also happy and glad and shocked that we got 2nd place. Again like the choir competition, so close into representing Pudu Zone for the Wilayah Persekutuan finals. Would like to thank Ms.Adlina and the rest of the teachers for their appreciated guidance to us debaters. Darshini, Amirul, Santosh, Jethro, Angeline Mai Sabrina and the rest for the contributions. So happy we got 2nd place. We celebrated in style by having a feast at Tesco Extra Cheras' food court.


Group photo.

Love this one. Mai thanks for the blowing kiss :D

Our school had this Hari Keusahawanan to raise school funds. And it was the first time I was a manager for my class' stall. Last year we were not that excited about how are we gonna set up our stall and what are we gonna sell. But this year, a whole different story. My class, after discussion with Cik. Roseni, we decided to set up a Playstation 2 stall with a few games to play and a FIFA Street 2 and Need for Speed Most Wanted competition. Was happy that last year's seniors came to give support by attending Hari Keusahawanan. Sure, we have a rival setting up his stall next to mine and also had used dirty tactics by tearing up my poster that was pasted in each class. Nice try kid.

It would be nice if there was a category for best stall poster :D Sorry for being cocky. Glad that I have receive good feedbacks on my poster. It took me 2 hours to do it using my Wacom Bamboo Fun.

And after failing for the first driving test, this time I was determined not to fail again for the 2nd time. I was so motivated until I memorized the side parking and naik bukit formulas. I wanna thank my driving instructor Mr.Chin for being patient with me. Blessed to have you teacher me. And by the grace of God, I passed :D

Things could not get any better when I had the opportunity to be a ticket checker for the Malaysia XI-Manchester United friendly match a @Bukit Jalil National Football Stadium. Hours standing and tearing tickets but it all paid off when we finished our job and was allowed to watch the final 25 minutes of the game. Matched ended with United winning with a slim scoreline, 3-2.

And at the same month after passing my driving exam, I got my license. :D

August......

Had my first summon from DBKL, for parking at the yellow line. Pretty awesome, RM 100 but Santosh's mum helped me settled it for RM 20.

And one thing that I really wanted to do before leaving school, I wanna give Mr.Chew a piece of my mind, and I did. I felt awesome, not because I did something just to show off or so, but I felt free and almost all of my tension and stress all gone.

As SPM was getting closer, highlights were lesser.

September.......

Nothing much, hmmmmm.

October.......

All American Rejects concert. Awesome performance by the band, worst part is that the show was delayed for 2 hours plus....


November......

SPM. Oh yeah, the last and final exam in Secondary school life. The one that really fucks every form 5's fragile minds to pieces. The one that causes everyone to be a caffeine addicts. But before that, it was a special month for me because SMK Seri Mutiara wanted to show their appreciation to us form 5s by having a first graduation ceremony for us. Heck, even last year seniors pun tak da ok?

Sammy, me and Santosh :D

And on that night, vodka and BBQ chicken. Kyle was the cameraman for the night, and thank him for the wonderful pictures in that post. Cheng Heng, that picture will haunt you for the rest of your life.

Remember remember Cheng Heng :D

Driving home 30% drunk =.=

And after the BBQ night, SPM. Hoooohhhh boy......

December.......

Freedom, can smell it after my arts paper. And after the last paper, which is perdagangan, I have completed the SPM exams and I have officially ended my education at SMK Seri Mutiara for 5 years. For the month of Decenber, I had fever after Education Fair, had a minor sinus problem but is now all right. That sinus problem has wake me up to exercise more and slack less. December was the month I went car hunting and got my baby dugong (thanks Dad).

My life has been great in 2009, who knew I meet alot of new friends this year, especially with the afternoon session. Ya lah Trisha congrats getting married with Iqa and may you 2 have a blissful relationship together. Justin, stop emo-ing and get on with life. Zanne, grow taller please :D

Memories of 2009 will forever be inked on my heart. This has been a year of blessing, thank you God for giving me a great year to go through.

2009 is coming to an end soon, 39 minutes left till we usher in 2010. Take care and party safe people. Next I will post the top songs for 2010 and alot of awards I made up with my own imagination.

P.S : Diong, Samuel, Ivan and Kuok Wei, sorry I forgot when we started a band together so sorry kay? But one thing I could forget is that we have an awesome time together jamming and practicing songs. "Decode", "Waking Up In Vegas" still remains the best songs we've performed.

My Baby Dugong

Today is the last Thursday of 2009, yesterday was the last Wednesday of 2009, Tuesday and Monday and Sunday and last Saturday and Friday was the last weekday for 2009. Its been a wonderful year, I'm gonna post a list of awesome things I've done for this year. This is also the last post for 2009, as we welcome 2010 :D

And today's a happy day for me. Registered for IACT (Institute Advertising Creative Training). I am looking forward to study graphic design at IACT, and also looking forward to college life. Its gonna be different than secondary school life, and all I can say is.....I'm looking forward to the challenges ahead.

Today went back to school to help out for Orientation Day for the new enrollment of Remove and Form One students. Gosh, every year these juniors are shrinking O.o Helped out on the P.A system, teachers were surprised that I took the time to come back to help (better write/prepare/type a good student testimony for me kay?)

Diong, I know you're gonna miss me, admit it XD Samuel, have fun being head prefect for your last year in SMK Seri Mutiara, SPM somemore wor....

Gan Yang came back to help too, he was the one who told me that Mr.Chee needed our assistance. Gan Yang will shift to Sri Petaling and stay with his dad, means that no more mamak session with him when masa lapang :( You guys might think his attitude as a childish teenager (yes, I do think of that way too) but when you need a friend that can always be there to help you out on your problems, he'll be there for you. Saw Melz, wonder why is she buying books back at Seri Mutiara?

Samuel followed me back, played Dirt 2. Yes, the Ford MKII oversteers easily and also can be a bitch to you. Wonder how the late Colin McRae can handle that piece of American crap. At least the Subaru 1995 Sti was ok. DIRT 2 was a perfect ode to the late rally champion who died of a freak helicopter accident. Sorely missed by racing fans like me. Ken Block and his Subaru STi Hatchback can go to hell, you call that a rally machine? Dave Mirra and his bloody Subaru too can go get bent. LOL, guess Subaru can really really digg a hole and bury their face in it too.

Watched Zombieland for the 4 time already, this time with Samuel. Halfway throughout the movie, tak da electricity =.=

Dad came back just in time, after resting we went to Ampang to get my car. I'm really blessed to have my own car months after getting my license. I still love the 1997 Honda City that my parents used, its still a solid car.

After signing the papers, dad then took the car keys and went to the car with the salesperson to do final checking on the car. Mileage is 16XXX and I never knew the car was so quiet. I love the 4-din MP3 player that's like so awesome. The signal sounds so adorable :D But hor, buntut Vios macam Jennifer Lopez XD

We got lost after telling mum to go home first. You know, dad has a bad sense of direction, same goes for me. After turning out from the used car lot, we just simply turn here and there and ended up at the main road back to Cheras.

Honda City and the Toyota Vios

Vios badge.

Front part of the car.

Test drove the car, need a few days to get used to it. It ain't like the City, everything feels different. Dad wants me to get used driving around the housing area before taking it on the main roads. Mum wants me to drive the City to familiarize myself with Petaling Jaya roads before using the Vios.

Driving the Vios is like driving a big car, help me!!!

Now the song "Brick By Boring Brick" by Paramore is my year end song to listen. It kinda sums up my year. Will post my countdown list by tomorrow maybe, anyway before signing off as this is the last post for 2009 (maybe...) I would like to thank you guys for reading my blog and giving comments. If anything that I posted offended you in some way, I sincerely apologized. Thank you so much.

P.S: Alex Lai still the best player to score....an own goal.

90's Songs Are Better Than The Rubbish Hits We Hear On The Radio

It's a bittersweet symphony that's life yeah......I need to hear some sounds that recognized the pain in me yeah. I let the melody shine, let my mind feel free now.

I am here in my mold, and I'm a million different people from one day to the next I can change....

I Want A Healthy Lifestyle :D

Ohhhhhhh gosh. Back from Malacca. Supposed to come back by Thursday but then, my sinus problem is back and mum had to bring me back home cuz I forgot to bring the pills back to grandma's place.

The pain....seriously makes you wanna scream and cry.Well, crying only makes it worst. I need to wake up and realize that I cannot solely depend on doc's meds to keep me away from the nudging pain in my head, I need to exercise and sleep early from now on.

I remember last year holidays, sleep at 2 a.m, wake up at 12 p.m. Parents always nagging at me about my recent sleeping hours and not exercising to be healthy.

Until this sinus problem came, I only realize the importance of having enough rest and sleep and always exercise. I mean, when was the last time I woke up as early as 8 a.m and breathe in fresh air into my nostrils?

I hear stories from an uncle of mine that people have sinus problems have to go for surgery and some had near death experiences. THAT alone made me so farking worried.

"You want lifetime medication or lifetime exercise?"

That was the one question that got stuck in my mind. So from now on, I wanna have a healthy lifestyle. Ok lah, once in a while I'll sleep late XD but every morning I'll go for morning walks and suck all oxygen from the plants :D

Car coming this Thursday. ARRRRGGHHH!!!

Sinus Sinus Sinus

Had a terrible terrible headache pain today after waking up. And I didn't even had a good night sleep. Christmas sucked, being sick on the most anticipated festive season really really kicks you in the nuts, really :(

Last Sunday's futsal was good. Kyle scoring goals as usual. And for once I found back my goalkeeper form. Used to be good, making saves and all until I totally lost it and became as bad as Paul Robinson XD

Oh yeah, good news. My car will arrive on Thursday :D Dad saw this ad on yesterday's Star Classifieds. A 2009 Toyota Vios S Spec at a reasonable price.

Today went to Malaysian Institute of Arts College to pay them a visit. And honestly, I'm not impressed. Hey, when you go to college, you have to be picky, cuz' you're gonna further you studies in that one college that will change your life. The college is located near the National Zoo. First of all, comparing to IACT's diploma course, which offers you 3 certs after 2.5 years (IACT Diploma for Graphic Design, International Advertising Agency from New York and another one from UK.) IACT is better. M.I.A only offers you just one cert.

After touring around the campus, which is just one 3 story building, with a few classrooms and 2 computer labs (one for the normal desktop, one for Macintosh)

Went to Ampang to check out my car, after negociating, deal sealed. Will get the car by Thursday. Thanks Dad.

I tried sleeping this afternoon, but only to be screwed by my headache. The pain is felt at te vein located at the eyebrow. So for 2 hours, I was on my bed yelling and cursing in all kinds of languages.

Finally went to see the doc....

Doc Ho. : Hey Daniel, what's wrong now?
Me : Doc, I'm having this aweful irritating pain on my eyebrow, something like a headache.

Mum was sitting just next to me...

Doc Ho : *does a pressure test on me* Hmmm, Daniel, any alohol?
Me : Well, once a while
Mum : Well, you know lah doc, once he reach at this age sure will drink geh
Doc Ho : Yeah, but at least not drinking too much right? Smoking?
Me : Nope

Mum gives me that face expression.

Doc Ho : *looks at my knee scar, which was very very disgusting* You fell right?
Me : Yeah, futsal, normal lah but this time my fault.
Doc Ho : Did you knock your head while at it?
Me : Nope.
Doc Ho : When did you begin having this headache?
Me : On Christmas.
Doc Ho : Oh well, nice timing. *press on my right eyebrow* pain here?
Me : Nope
Doc Ho : What about here? *press harder*
Me : Oh damn it that hurts!!
Doc Ho : Hmmm, ok, what about here? *press on cheeks*
Me : A little
Doc Ho : Well Daniel, you have a sinus problem. Your nose blockage causes the room to be blocked right at your sinus and causes a major headache, something like a minor migraine. Do you have any history of this problem before?
Me : Yeah, last year.
Mum : He has asthma when he was a kid.
Doc Ho ; Ok, fear not, I'll give you some antibiotics for you and your acne. Some flu and pain pills, and I'll give you cough syrup for your cough.

Great, antibiotics. =(
