2013 ulalar~

A big SWEAT for me. Decided to post this about my Chinese New Year even though the lunar new year had officially ended last Sunday. Sorry for that but this is the first time I get back to home after CNY and I am able to get a better wifi to update my blog.

Actually this can train my memory for always remember what had happened to me weeks before.

Outfit of Chor 1.
Chilli-Red dress. Bought this because my brother suggested us to wear 'ang-ang' this year.

I dont have much relatives as only one of my uncle and dad get marriage for dad's side. I dont have much cousins. And my uncle celebrated his cny with his family in Australia, so there wont be anybody visited our house. What a quiet Chor 1 as my house will never get as crowded as others. Since we wrapped ourselves in such lovely colour, we decided to take many many photos as memories. My house was well-decorated, so why dont? We snapped a lot of photos in many spot at house.

Ang-ang-boi-hai-lang. XD

With daddy.

I then visited my friends' house and English teacher, Khoo Sir's house. He is our common favourite teacher during our secondary school because he is handsome LOL funny and nice! We never feel tired during his class. I still could remember his 'power-palm' and massaging that he applied to some tertidur fellows. He always refused to talk in Chinese with us and always pronounced my name wrongly and my name became 'Jin Cham'. ISH!!! Anyway I really miss those time. We chat a lot in his house, for 2 hours I think. Discussing about our future, his career and life and some views about government.

Had dinner at Yiling's house. Went for another gathering at night. A simple primary school meet-up session. Have been nearly 15 years since I knew them. Some are from kindergarten. Happy that we still chat and laugh a lot. :)

Damn tired but still enjoyable. With a lovely mood, I kick off the Chor Yee house visiting day with my secondary school gang!

First station was my house. We were so quiet because everybody were sleepy Zzz

The second station was Kok Pin aka God house. A very immediate decision and a simple call to inform we were going to his house. And here we were. He get shocked that we really went to his house. Haha the shy boy and us.

Third station Tian Zhi aka Apek's house after lunch at Simple cafe.

Forth station was Melissa's house. Her dog Lucky is our all time favourite. It is super obedient and cute!

Fifth station was Sze Ken's house.
 Camera settled at the gate as there wasnt anybody taking photo for us.

Sixth station was Karyne's house.
The tradition to do at her house is to play Wii. My skill improved this year haha

With the long time no see beauty, Miss YY!
Havent meet her for half year plus I think, wish her all the best for future undertaking. Hope we could meet up more often after she graduated from poly.

Seventh station Jia Ling's house.
Kolam decoration for Chinese New Year, special isnt it?

Eighth station was Ah Farn's house. Had buffet at his house until forgot to take photo.

Nineth station was Caroline's house. Then we back to Farn's house to gamble and so call a day.
House visiting was super tiring but I enjoy that! Hope we could have this type of outing every new year.

Chor San, a day that I fallen sick and had sore throat. :( 

Chor Si, having steamboat and yu-shang at home!!

Chor Wu, Valentine Day! I visited my Chinese Drawing teacher in the morning. A big surprise that he gave me a drawing, it was super nice! Then meet up with my valentine, miss Woon Yee aka Fiona. Since she was busy preparing her exam, we only chat for few hours.

Valentine Day hadnt end so early. I met up with my another two valentines, Heng Chen and Yiling!! We chatted from 3pm till 12.30am that day. Geng right? This is what so called GOOD FRIENDS. The topics never get ended, I dont know why. We chatted about our recent life, rumours, ups and downs in Uni, happy and sadness with roommates, coursemates, schoolmates... We faced the same situation because our characters are too alike. We dont like to socialize. How I wish they will still be with me in the same college now? If so, my life will be more cheerful and merrier.

Chor Lok, visit Min babe's house. The last house visiting for new year.
Went to Malacca for calligraphy competition at night. Thanks God I get first runner up for the Open Category and Second runner up for Teachers group. The happiest thing was that I win as I wrote cao shu and my cao shu was recognized by the judges. XD

Chor Ba, day to go back to Maktab but I chose not to because I wanna pray Tee-Gong at night. Had been 2-3 years I couldnt pray because I was away from home. Tee-Gong must Bo-bee bo-bee. =D

Chor 9, woke up at 5am and rushed back to hostel. Thanks my aunts for fetching me back.

CNY ended and gonna muster all the energy to pia hard hard for this brand new year! Jiayou!!

BC2 Reunion Dinner

Reunion dinner of BC2 was held at Megah Restaurant. But not everybody attended on that day.

Some of the dishes. Quite delicious actually.

Back to school and continue to take photo. Met our tutor, En Zelkepli when we were taking photo at the astaka, so he joined us!! Yeepee ^.<

Happy Snake Year, everybody!! XD

We looked nice in this selca :P

With tutor.

One of my day in college

January came to the end. So fast! Day by day, normal yet busy. I was not very busy so far as I am so used to the hectic life cycle here, thus I can use my time quite wisely and done my work in time. :)
We got Writing Competition in today's Chinese lecture. Thanks for my classmates who gave me high marks, I managed to get the first runner up! I was quite shocked!! Whee XD

Class ended early today and so we girls decided to have steamboat for dinner. I had cereal everyday and surprisingly I joined the steamboat dinner. It had been a long time since last steamboat which was in pp sem 1 I think. We laughed and made noise to the max. I enjoyed the moments to craze around with them, without thinking about assignment or exam. We bought the ingredients, we cooked, we cleaned together, we talked, we laughed. Hopefully there won't be any quarrel around us girls and our friendship could last. It was really an enjoyable dinner for me! Just a simple record for today. :)

With Yee Xien.

We love this photo prettay much!

With Choo choo

Peh Yee was making the Tomyam soup

It was really lotsa ingredients we bought! A wonderful steamboat <3 p="">

Fat die. Muahaha XD

Calligraphy class.

很开心也很意外，讲师竟然叫我教大家书法！说“教”还真是严重了，其实我把它当作一种分享，一个学书法以来的里程碑。学了10几年了，不仅仅有比赛，有得奖，还有了新的教学体验。当然啦，说不紧张是假的，讲解的时候还是手抖脚抖，但一直深呼吸，告诉自己不用怕，慢慢地心情才平复了下来。很庆幸自己曾在大大小小的教师书法营中担任过几次助教，从一开始害怕到前一晚放声大哭的中五生，到现在这个能够独当一面的师训生，看到自己的成长，我真的很开心。以前我真的很不会说话，看到人家写的不好也不知道错在哪里，但一次次的经验让我已经慢慢看得出大家在笔画上容易犯的通病。这真的要谢谢我的书法老师，刘明亮老师和林清忠老师给我这些宝贵的经验。

有别于老师们的教学方式，我亲自录制了写笔画的步骤的video，因为我觉得如果写在麻将纸上浪费时间且不一定能让所有朋友看得清楚。我左手拿camera，右手拿笔，就这样完成了我的video。当大家看得不明白时，就重播重播再重播，果真省时省力。讲师也很喜欢这个录影。

课前拍照留念。

 开始了。我好小一只。

示范如何握笔。

 刘讲师近距离拍我如何握毛笔。

 大家都写得很认真噢！真棒！

讲师对我的表现表示赞赏，说是她们听过最仔细分解笔画的书法课。对于讲师的高度评价，我真是欣喜若狂！跟我的老师比起来，他们说的如何欣赏书法和分析一大堆名家作品才是强！教笔画，我还是应付得来的，但也只有这套功夫了。毕竟书法博大精深，会写的人不一定会说，会说的人不一定会写，我会说的也只是皮毛，一定还要更钻研免得笑掉别人大牙。看到大家认真努力越来越进步，我也不想要原地踏步。

去新山挥春的时候被某些人说我的书法比往年退步了，我很伤心很失望也有点不满。我不喜欢别人这么批评我，毕竟有谁喜欢被批评？我也不喜欢别人赞美我，因为有自知之明被称赞时好心虚。所以一下巴士回到家我就拿出老师的字范练习了2-3小时。隔一个星期再到新山挥春，那些某某人说我脱胎换骨。这样被称赞起来才开心因为不心虚。但是我知道自己的水平在哪里，一山还有一山高。今年，我希望自己的书法能更上一层楼，草书越练越有味道！Hwaiting!! ^0^

通过肚痛感受家的美好

于是乎，我又回到了学校。
开学了，虽然第一个星期只有短短的三天但心里感触良多。在家千日好，这句话说得真对！在家里我总觉得一切都是理所当然的，总是控制不了自己的脾气和姑姑大声说话，总是伤害着对我最好的家人。
回到学校的那晚，我真的很不习惯，不习惯宿舍那超硬的床褥，不习惯没有家人一直陪我说话的环境。我不舍得挂电话因为挂了电话就要等隔天的到来。我不能一觉得无聊就和他们说个不停。我翻来覆去好久才睡去。
回到学校的那晚，那个凌晨，我的肚子就开始闹别扭了。大半夜的，我得提起勇气走出房门去厕所，在家就不用害怕了。接下来的一整天肚子都好痛好痛，床好硬，怎么翻都不舒服。房好冷，不管怎么盖被都依然手脚冰冷。在家就不用那么辛苦了。我把带来的各种能治肚痛的药都吃过了仍未见效。不敢吃食堂油腻的食物。橱里空荡荡的因为任性地认为三天的学校生活不会需要食物。结果午餐是泡面，还是和朋友买来的一包泡面。肚子疼的没有胃口，花了四十五分钟才把平日觉得很好吃的面缓缓地吞进肚。在家就不用挨饿了。家里总有好吃的，香喷喷的，烧烧的。
我真的无法控制自己的眼泪。每通与姑姑的电话都让我哭得无法自拔。惹他们生气时，他们说再也不接我电话，打回家询问吃什么药也不会管我死活，但他们没那么做。他们仍是很关切地问我好点了吗。想到自己平日的态度真的很后悔。想到在家的日子真的觉得自己很幸福，幸福到得意忘形，忘了珍惜。一整天我都好希望他们能马上出现在我眼前，让我紧紧地抱着，取得温暖。
就这样很奄奄一息地躺在床上半梦半醒了一天。
隔天，带着仍隐隐作痛的肚子继续上课。成绩即将揭晓的时候我的肚子抽痛得更加厉害了。直至接到了3.93的成绩单，肚子才似乎不药而愈。我很开心自己终于达到了目标。进了学院这么久，这是第一次超过3.8，所以异常兴奋，觉得自己总算扬眉吐气了。每个学期我都非常努力，可是总是失望首场，所幸自己的好胜心和不懈的坚持才能熬过之前没有信心的日子。我记得每个熬夜早起的日子，只睡那四五个小时的日子，每滴眼泪，每份压力，很多很多。我答应自己要更加努力，不能因为一次就放松，日子还长着，再讨厌也得逼自己读，其实我很喜欢华语。所以这个学期要更认真才行！
星期五回家天，爸爸特地来在我，真的很开心！一回到家马上给姑姑一个最大的拥抱，和想象中一样的温暖。家里有温水冲凉，有好吃的，有温暖。再一次觉得在家真是太棒了！我不想飞黄腾达，我只想永远呆在我温暖的家。你可以说我窝囊，但这是我小小愿望，在家的日子比什么都珍贵，希望快快毕业能回到家乡教书！
很夜了，我就是想把想法化为文字，记录我爱家的这一刻，提醒自己不要再坏蛋要永远己的家人的好。我一定要乖乖！晚安。
新的学期，加油！我一定会更努力！更棒！:)
