MAPCU Bowling 2008

July 20th, 2008 by dee dee

We ended it with a BANG!

MAPCU2008068-IMG_0340

Our duty towards HELP, we have served, very well indeed~ You know, we thought that we won’t get any calls from DSA to play for HELP this year, due to relevant reasons and irrelevant ones too. Who knows, they have found new players, or we have finished our course (but they don’t really know that), or maybe they just forgot about us! It’s quite normal. But Just 2 days before the game, they called us! Wee~ so happy. We have been moaning to aaron kor kor and papa that HELP has forgotten us but how wrong were we! And so we gladly accepted the task. To win for HELP again! Medals~ and Glory~

Brotha’s friends.

Last year i was dissapointed that i couldn’t play for college but they were still nice enough to give me a certificate bacause i was there supporting them from the start until the end. I actually wanted to accompany char xD So i missed my classes too. I really wished that this year i would make it into the team and i did. It feels weird getting a sports scholarship and not playing for the college. It was time to make things right! for me.

P7170013

This year the women’s category was quite tough. Unlike last year, more trained bowlers were participating this year. Singles was not as easy as before! Char and i did badly in singles but with pui yee and elaine, HELP wont go far from the medals zone. They got 2nd and 3rd! In this level, we don’t play for our self anymore. Most of the HELP bowlers take these as a business contract. We play not for our self, but for HELP. So it doens’t really matter who got the medals, as long as it is one of us! That’s where the team spirit comes from. If only i felt this years ago, i will deffinitely played better and went further xD

P7170014

Doubles. Eventhough singles was badly done, it didn’t bother char and I to win something for this event. I was glad that char was my partner. I didn’t want to pull down the others due to my inconsistent game. Somehow i knew, being with char will stabalize my game. And sure it did! We got 2nd! Bad news is, we were only 6 pins behind the gold!! But our silvery victory was hardwork. We are pleased we won something which was self earned =) Elaine and pui yee got 3rd. That was the first day. 6 games played overall.

MAPCU2008054-IMG_0285

Second day! Team event! It was obvious that HELP got the strongest team for the women’s category but nothing shall be taken for granted! We were of course aiming for gold, non of us had any. Only silver and Bronze. Sunway got 2 gold already. Our first game was brilliant, lead by char with her 230+ game. Hundred pins away from Sunway. A breath or relief. 2nd game was not bad either but Sunway wasn’t that far from us. We tried to stay focus. Every pin counts. We got ahead of them by 30 pins in the 2nd game. Chill again~ Last game! Can’t play a fool!! Sunway nearly got a high game but they went down by the end of the game. We beat them again. It was a really sweet victory. No flukes, but a good quality win. Finally, a gold!!!

MAPCU2008046-IMG_0228

After team event, then comes the Masters. Top 12 bowlers compete against each other to determine the champion. But unfrotunately only one of us did well here. Pui Yee got 2nd. And the 3 of us, played rather badly. Meanwhile the guys! How can i not talk about the guys! Well, they only manage to get a silver for team event. But we are still the overall champion! Wee~ The points mostly were contributed by the girls! To sum things up, HELP won 1 gold, 4 silver and 2 bronze. It might be the last year for HELP to win because most of the players will be graduating this year xD My best wishes to HELP!

MAPCU2008060-IMG_0311

I looked forward to this event eversince college ended and indeed it was something to look forward too. We met up with many bowling buddies whom we’ve lost touch eversince most of us quit bowling from the KL team. We were surprised by ZHI WEI and KEE KEE too! They came! Muacks! We took photos and bid all friends a proper good bye~

MAPCU2008025-IMG_0128

The best part of all, i got an offer from Taylors too! A Sport Scholarship Offer. How cool~ They wanted to offer char too but unfortunately they don’t have her course. But i’m still considering hard. Ha ha. If only The One Academy knows that i’m high in demand! If only… If only…  

Is a happy ending ,” Char

Laces and Frills

July 15th, 2008 by dee dee

Lately we did lotsa window shopping. We aint got da money! So we do da window shopey! Usually, we would rush mama and papa to take us home because we had to study “Papa! Papa! Not enough time!! Must study! Or else we’ll fail!” Walking around shopping malls during the weekends while we were studying was really torturing. All the fun were sucked up. Had to constantly think of our time management.

But now, 6 months! Of pure relaxation. Went out with papa and mama on sunday to Sungei Wang. It’s a nice place to be. Although it’s packed with lalas and not really a safe place to be but it’s full of smells and colours. Lotsa tastes. Like a feast of excitement that awaits us. That is how we describe to momma about places we want to go but she don’t seem to feel how we feel.

The Metrojaya in BB Plaza is quite dead. So we like to play around there. Try on some clothes and try on another and try again and take another and wear another and feel the other and get another one. But of course! We don’t try on the cheap ones! How silly! We take the coolest of all!! The one with more digits on it. Ha ha. But our sizes aren’t always there. We have to pick carefully. With a rush of sudden excitement, we spotted them!! Somerset Bay… Can you see how lovely the name sound? Which comes with lovely dresses too! With laces and frills~

DSC00686

The dress don’t suit me, made me looked pregnant with my first child. Char felt princessey~ We filled the dressing room with giggles and collision with the walls. Had a hard time putting them on. Stepped on each other’s long dresses. But it was fun!

So in the end, we went home empty handed just as expected but with smiles~ It’s our current hobby now. Even papa enjoys it.

Redang Island, Malaysia.

July 15th, 2008 by charmaine

A bunch of teenagers and us went to Redang Island two weeks ago, right after our prom night to celebrate our freedom after finishing our A Levels course.

P7020007

We stayed at Pelangi Resort on Redang Island of course. We took a plane from LCCT to Kuala Terengganu. From Kuala Terengganu, a bus of the resort took us to the jetty. From the jetty, we ride on a boat which took us to Redang Island.

P7020017

The boat ride was fun.

P7020021

It was very bumpy.

P7020027

My bum was in agony. But the ride was cool.

P7020029.1

So after about one hour of the bumpy ride, we arrived at the island..

P7020030

We reached the island quite early about 10 something. Our snorkeling session was at 2.30pm, so we had a lot of time in our hands. After some briefing and checking into our rooms, we walked by the beach.

P7020037

This beach is called Pasir Panjang which means long sand. The beach is very long too. Many resorts are located along this beach. We can walk into these resorts and use their hammock, toilets, and whatever you feel like using if you feel that your resort does not have everything that you need. Haha.

P7020038

Our resort lack of hammocks, so we went to other resorts to use their hammocks.

DSCN1902

We hop around the fantastic creatures.

P7020057

The beach is really nice. I like it because it is very wide, and if you play in the sea, it is not too deep. The water is clear, we even saw white fishes swimming in the water near the sandy beaches.

When we arrived on the first day, it was really hot. But it made the sea glimmer like blue sapphires. it felt kind of unreal to me. But it was real..

P7020047
P7020048
P7020056

After our lunch, it was time for snorkeling!!! We went up the boat and they took us to a spot. At this spot, the corals were kind of dull. The colours were dull and the variety of corals were dull. Actually i don’t know much about corals. Ha!

P7020061
P7020063

But there were fishes!! Fishes are nice! They swam around me.

P7020074
P7020076
P7020077
P7020081

On the second day at redang, they took us to the marine park in the morning. That morning was gloomy as it was going to rain. The sea was choppy. The corals there mostly looked like this..

P7030177

The marine park was nice. We went there to see fishes more than corals. We spotted a dead jelly fish too. It was deadly dead.

P7030120
P7030121
P7030127

It rained when we were snorkeling there. There were few times our guide blow wistle at us but i don’t know what he wants. I thought he wanted some fish, so i thought i was supposed to throw fishes at him, but in the end, i didn’t throw. Too hard to catch them. But i tried my best.. Oh ya, if you want to see many fishes, stick to the bread man!!

P7030134

After that spot, we went to another spot. This time, the corals here are more interesting. More colour and more variety. But we saw an orange jellyfish lurking around the boat. But none of us were being attacked by it.

P7030190
P7030191
P7030193
P7030200

More like the corals you see in the tv yeah? most of the underwater photo was taken by my friend Ivan. Without him the photos won’t turn out so well. Hee~

Oh ya, these are a few of us being underwater:
P7020096
P7020097
P7030195
P7030168
haha. dee wasn’t posing. She is not a poser.
P7020105
Me above water.

Besides snorkeling, we did other stuff too. Such as:
P7030181
meditating

P7030185
Burying people..

P7030187
Making sand castle.. Can you see the yin and yang in front of the castle?

There are some few things you can see at Redang. You can visit the setting of a chinese movie called More More Tea Inn or something like that.

DSCN1749
DSCN1750
DSCN1752
DSCN1751

Or you can go to Redang beach resort to see blue sand at night. I saw red sand at laguna beach resort though. But i don’t have any photos of those.

DSCN1771b
Well we had quite some fun time there. Nothing much to complain except that the boys dumped the girls most of the time.

DSCN1947

We were terribly bored. The guys go play poker wor. Go redang play poker. Sigh.

DSCN1910

Anyway, ah! happy times~

Love

July 12th, 2008 by charmaine

I wonder what is love..

Why is it when two persons who are in love, they kiss. Why? What is that between them that make them feel like kissing? Why they don’t do it to others as well? Do they do it because other couples who are in love does it as well? Or it is just a natural feeling to kiss? But i don’t think it is natural because if no one had seen a kiss before, it is a disgusting thing to do and no one would do it. So why kiss?

Why is it that when a random stranger kiss you, you feel it was disgusting. But when your love one kisses you, you return his/her kiss? Why such a different reaction when it was just a kiss?

Why kiss each other?

Why do people relate making love with love?

Why do people say that when two person make love, they feel their love for each other? Isn’t making love just a physical interaction? Why does it represents their love for each other (if they don’t want to have a baby)? But my real question is why make love when two person are in love? Some say it is the time when both of them feel closest to each other. But if they feel closest to each other while making love, i don’t think it’s the closest they can go, because they didn’t stick their tongue into each other’s mouth to be close enough. No I am not trying to be dirty or weird, i am just trying to understand, since some people do extreme stuff with their partners.

What is it about love which makes making love and kissing each other morally correct?

Making love without love is called sex. Why is it that pre marital sex is morally wrong? Why? Since marriage at this decade is taken very lightly unlike the olden days. What if the couple love each other but they are not married, is it still morally wrong? Besides marriage is just a formal promise of sticking together for the rest of your life, but promise can always be broken if you want to.

So what is kissing and making love? It is just some kind of thing people do to… i don’t know. Tell me?

Reptar!!!

July 10th, 2008 by charmaine

Yesterday i went to Leonard’s house. So i spotted some creature on his teevee.

DSC00677
It is a pikachu. A lightning associated creature…

DSC00679
A doraemon. Not as cute as my monmon. heeee

And the most intriguing among all of them was…
DSC00678
Grrrrr..grrrrr.. Reptar!!!

OMG!! Reptar so cute! Reptar so cute!!! OMG!!!

( If you don’t know what is a Reptar, click here and wikipedia will explain it all)

So i stole it, and brought it home with me.

I carry it with me every where i went. Dee say i look crazy. Then i just smiled at Reptar.

I placed Reptar beside my bro’s PC went i go online.
DSC00680
I like to stare at i when my eyes get tired. It just makes me smile.

Then sometimes when we move too much, Reptar falls flat. It look really cute!!! hehehehehe
DSC00681

I have never been in love with a dinosour before! It is exciting! And very green!

Oh yeah, why did Reptar look intriguing to me was because of its smile. It has a Mona Lisa smile. Like as though there is a secret behind that lopsided smile.

Papa Back To Work!

July 10th, 2008 by charmaine

My dad is working again. To support our life, most importantly to pay our university fees. So we don’t have the privilage to go any where we want at anytime anymore. It is sad.

I can’t go to the gym in the morning. I can’t have lunch outside in the afternoon. I get the laptop in the evening. I get to watch tv while eating my dinner. No need to sit in the dining hall when it is meal times. Cannot get to stop my cravings for food at certain days and period of my life.

Yes it is sad.

But of course, it is much better than him going out station to work.

Now i feel very lazy. All I want to do is watch tv.

Yesterday we went to fly kites in the morning. I think we look like idiots. No one was flying kite at that time besides us. The field was empty. Just us. There must be a reason why it was empty.

Because mornings usually don’t have wind!! How to fly!

I ran from one end of the field to another end of the field. Like a crazy girl with a crazy smile staring at her so called flying kite. It flew when i was running, but it dives down to the ground right after i reached the end of the field.

Now my leg hurts.

HELP A Levels Prom Night 2008: Afterglow

July 5th, 2008 by charmaine

On the 30th of June, a large group of teenagers gathered at Hilton Kuala Lumpur for a night of celebration and joy.

prom10

By 6pm they gathered in front of the grand ballroom and people started snapping the camera of friends in lovely gowns and tight tuxedos. Some look fabulous while some look normal. I didn’t see anyone ugly. Haha!

prom5

Many took the effort to put on some make up, while some just let things be. Some were showing off while some hide behind the curtains.

prom1

Food came out by 8pm. It was surprisingly ‘different’. Fine cuisine. But not fine enough for me to take a photo of what i ate.

prom2

Some tasted bland, some tasted flat, some were too sweet for my tastebuds. Nothing spectacular. Pffft.

prom3

Entertainment was Dennis from a dance show called Do You Think You Can Dance? We didn’t see much as our table was at a bad positioned and the sound system was bad. Oh yea, bad. Couldn’t hear what was the emcee talking about most of the time. Sad to say it was not worth the money. It was not worth my time preparing for it. But for the sake of meeting my friends, i didn’t want to think how disattisfied i was.

prom4

Then the emcee had this bollywood dance which was kind of stupid. Yea very entertaining.

prom6

So The Prom King went to the most good looking guy in our class, Tan Jin Ern. It’s not just my opinion, everyone says so. prom Queen goes to some one not from our class. See, although we are a bunch of nerds, we can still produce Prom Kings. Hahaha.

prom7

Then after they chose the Prom King and Queen, they had the pleasure to be the first to dance on the dance floor. Not too long after that the dance floor was flooded with couples doing the ’slow dance’ and i thought some of them were kissing already. Urgh. So my bunch of friends didn’t get the chance to cause havoc on the dance floor that night.

prom8

How sad.

prom9

Left the place by 2330 to get ready for the Redang trip on the next day.

The Sad Advanture Of The Char

June 26th, 2008 by charmaine

I was alone beside the swimming pool feeling nothing and just breathing like a normal human being when i saw a little birdie.

DSC00662

Little birdie was still as a statue. It look very weird as it was really still. So i went closer and try moving my hand toward it. Still not moving. Then it started chirpin’ really loudly. It can’t fly away from me but it jumped away from me. So i just stare at it for a few minutes. It was injured. The tail was broken. And maybe too young to fly. So i told Dad to come to see Lil Birdy. Dad came and put it inside the tree so that it could hide when it rained.

DSC00663.1

I tried holding it, but my hand was shaking because of the coffee i drank earlier.

DSC00664

Lil Birdy couldn’t fly. I pitied Lil Birdy. I thought of bringing it home to feed it water and food and let it go when it can fly.

So I asked dad if i can take it home. I really wanted to save Lil Birdy. I usually won’t do that. Lil Birdy was special.

I put Lil Birdy in an empty tissue box to keep it still. But the bumpy road was giving stress to Lil Birdy. So Lil Birdy went crazy, started flapping its wings and it managed to come out from the box. It rested on my finger.

DSC00665.1

Birdy see car..

When it rested on my finger it was calm. So I let birdy see car and lorry. Birdy was very calm. And i was calm. It was a long ride home. Birdy shitted on my hand because it was freaked out, but i didn’t mind.

DSC00666.1

birdy see lorry..

We reached home. I quickly took water to feed birdy but birdy was exhausted and looked like in deep stress. I managed to feed birdy few drops of water before it succumbed to it death on my hand. It was gasping for air before it went. Dee told me to stay strong. She said, “Don’t cry char..”

Right after birdy left, dee started to press birdy’s chest. Maybe… just maybe a miracle will happen..who knows it just fainted.. Birdie opened its eyes. But it just opened its eyes. Nothing more than that… I continued pressing its chest for 10 minutes. No miracle happened.

I am really dissappointed. I was imagining letting it free..

Most will say i am the cause of its death, but leaving it there was not a choice. It was there for a few hours before i took it and no birds were even near it. sigh..

Rock Climbing At The Summit

June 24th, 2008 by charmaine

I always wanted to rock climb but i never had the chance to do it because it is either friends are not keen or either friends who are keen for it are busy. But at last, today i rock climbed!! Wee~ So happy!

DSC00643.2

Woke up early morning just so that Leo can pick us then pick Kennie then go to The Summit to rock climb. I thought it would cost about RM 50 each person, but no, it only cost us about RM 25!! wee~

DSC00646.1

By the way i met Leo and Kennie at OBS. OBS friends are very fun people. We do exciting stuff that my mom would not normally let me do whem i was a baby. When i was a baby she would not let me climb a rock. She would just let me climb papa. Who has this big soft tummy where i can bang my head and suffocate to faint.

DSC00645.1

After paying money, they thought us the basic things about belaying a rock climbing.

DSC00647

After that, everything was left up to us! Can climb anywhere we want. No one was there so the whole place was for all of us four. How cool is that! But too bad leo and dee was not too keen climbing the walls. Blek.

DSC00649.1

But i was very happy. Like a smiling moon. So fun!

Stupid Or Not?

June 21st, 2008 by charmaine

While my exam was on, i kept thinking about stuff. I was thinking about why some people don’t really need to study so much and yet they can get so good results while others struggle like mad just to get an A? Why during classes, some students understand what crap the teacher was talking while others just stare blanky into the teacher’s eyes? Suddenly life felt unfair. Haha.

DSC00642

I kept complaining to my dad and I kept on studying. The complaining keeps me going. While my dad kept telling us that it was easy to get and A. He said, “Just study only mar… so easy.” =.=

DSC00641

Then one day, it suddenly hit me. Some people are meant to be stupid while some are just plain intelligent.

DSC00639

Those who always get an A hor, they are smart students. While for me hor, I need to study very hard then only can get an A. That just proved how stupid I am. Others close eyes can get A, i need to do all kinds of stuff to get an A. I mean how stupid is that right?

DSC00619

Just say i study so hard but all i can get is B, I am not stupid. Why? It is just wasn’t meant to be. It just simply mean that, i should quit and start persuing other dreams. But definately not stupid.

So if i really get many A’s for this exam, i won’t cheer. I will just sulk. Because my results just indeed proved that i am really stupid.

I told my dad that. He sort of agreed. Then he called me stupid girl. Haha
