Everyone should listen to Joanna Newsom's peach plum pear. ESPECIALLY if you're online with Hansen the unhandsome, hearing him gripe about his burning ears and talking about porno chicken. and agreeing to have sex with a chicken if only he'd listen to the song again

You'll get stomachahce from laughing your lungs out. yaya, science students, i know u laugh with your stomach but i wanna laugh with my lungs cannot? ;p

My dad bought the 5 dollar ikea clock today. the one with the blue rim and red fingers and black numbers. the one everyone complains is not functioning properly. the one i've been staring at for 5 years in secondary school. the one i'm gonna be looking at from now on. oh please help me.

I bought something I've never bought before today. no, not the clock. something else. heehee. And I'm happy.

I had fun in class today. heehee. And I'm happy.

I'm feeling rather cranky, as is obvious from this post. heehee. And i'm happy.

Joanna Newsom rocks my smelly socks! Grace Wong rocks my smellier socks!!! Hansen rocks my SMELLIEST socks!!!!!!!!! =)

Haven't had pics here in a loooong time have we??

This post is kinda pointless because I curi-ed all the pics from Steffi (nyek nyek) and you'd probably have seen it already anyway. But oh what the heck lah.

Shakers rocked, Ps Matt rocked even harder!

Henry Seeeeeeley...

McD's!!! Actually I'm kinda glad we didn't go to mamak as planned. Cos we wouldn't have had the chance to camwhore as much! ;p
So CUTE!!!

Awesome pic right... You have no idea the risks the photograher had to take in order to capture this once-in-a-lifetime shot. Putting her life on the line just for the sake of photography, braving the onslaught of speeding cars just to get the prefect picture, coaxing her object to lie down nicely at the perfect angle, capturing the lighting in order to set the mood and the ambience, making sure the object is positioned in the middle of the picture and not senget a bit...phew. And she did all this in like, what? 5 seconds? You just have to salute the brilliant person who captured this don't you?

Oh I forgot to mention, I took the picture ;p

boooooo-CHAK!!
okok, those were last week's pics. Back to what happened today.

Class was so fun today. We had creative writing workshop and I met Dina Zaman!! Haven't heard of her? Well then you obviously don't read newspapers. Workshop was eye opening and fun, fun, FUN!!! Met some big shots from Digi and Klue mag and Cloudbreak. See see? THAT's why everyone should do mass comm. We should have workshops like these everyday lah... they're so fun! Ok then we went down to the auditorium for WWF's wildlife conservation campaign. I'm not proud of the fact that I spent the entire time eating MnMs and Twisties and collectively grumbling with Jess and Edeline that we're so freaking hungry can we go home now not fair Miss Rina is eating roti canai in the cafe while we're suffering here. I mean I'm all for wildlife conservation and I should have paid attention to what he was rambling on about. But anyhow, I had fun during workshop, so, what-everrrr (you've got to say it Shannon-style. haha) Then I went home. ok, erm, that was lame *rolls eyes*

Regret of the day: I didn't get to talk to Klue's owner. Aiyah.

Cicak you've gotta read this!

ok so I was sleeping. And when you sleep, you dream. And most of the time dreams don't make sense right? Or maybe they do after all...

I was walking to some cafeteria with some guys from college, then, I suddenly saw Kenneth sunbathing with some girl. I think he pontenged Rangers to do just that. But there was no sun. Hahahah!!

Ok, so then i walked on lah. Then I came to this grassy picnic area with benches. Then who do you think I saw? I saw Larry eating rice like he hasn't eaten in 10 years. Plus, his face was FILLED with acne, like, betul betul serious case punya acne. He looked like a volcano erupted on his face or something. You know like how pregnant women just...erupt? haha. But that's not the point lah. The point is, I was kinda surprised to see him cos i thought he was supposed to be in Korea. So I asked him lah, Eh Larry, how come you not in Korea wan? So he wanted to open his mouth to explain. But being the considerate person I am, I knew that he would probably have to explain his story to a million different people, so I came up with a brilliant idea. I said, eh Larry chup chup. Why don't you record your story so the next time soimeone asks you the same question you can just play the tape recorder? Save saliva marh...So he went, yaya, good idea! Then he asked me to use the camera which was lying on the ground to record. Walauweh Larry you simply chuck your camera around wan meh? Plus, the power wasn't turned off even though it wasn't being used. tsk tsk. What a waste of battery! So anyway, i picked up the camera and started to record lah. But before he could say anything,

Guess what happened???




THE. PHONE. RANG.



BAAAAAAAABI. How classic is that lah you tell me. You only get that kind of oh-the-phone-rang-and-jolted-me-awake-from-my-dream kind of stories in standard 3 karangans, NOT in real life ok!

So Larry never got to explain his story. haha. Larry you wanna explain why you came back from Korea without completing the trip??? hahahhahahhaa....

Regret of the day: I didn't turn the stupid handphone off before I went to sleep. Aiseh.

Man I am so super freaking out about playing drums for YE on Sat. It's been a loooonnggg time since I last played for youth. It's a whole different thing from playing for Tuesday prayer meeting mind you. I mean, dude. We're talking Time has come and Come to praise here. God, help me please.

**

I've been thinking a lot. You know how people often say they have no control over what happens in their life? (no specific example about WHAT, but just, you know, stuff that happens) I realised that yeah, many times things happen which are completely out of your control. Your brain says something, and your heart completely contradicts what your brain says. You do all you can to tell yourself to stop following your heart. because your brain knows better. But you can't stop. As soon as your brain goes into overtime telling your heart to stop, your heart challenges it. Like it's some Olympic race or somehting. And you just. can't. stop. doing the wrong thing.
BUT
I realise there is a way out of this mess. You may not have control over what happens with your heart. However, you can make a CHOICE based on what your brain says, on how you react to control the situation. You can follow your heart and plunge yourself into deep darkness, possibly regret your rash decision for life all because you entertained that fleeting moment of pleasure and excitement, OR, you can follow your logical brain and choose not to take any action at all, and live happily ever after knowing you came, you saw, you conquered. vide vise vira or whatever. (what was it ah? someone remind me please) You just have to realise what you're experiencing is a phase you're going through and you'll snap out of it if you'd just learn to chill and not be rash. Say, for example. You're involved in a car accident which may or may not have been evaded. But it doesn't matter, cos it already happened. Everything's in a mess.

Erm, sorry ah. I'm kind of stuck at the example. I thought i could relate it to my brain-heart thing but apparently it doesn't work. So forget the example ok. Anyway, it's not important for you to know what I'm talking about lah. This post is for me. You'll understand if you go through what I'm going through in your life.

So Leong Su Ling, get a grip on yourself!! Tomorrow's gonna be exciting! Learn to deal with it!

The connection in College is so freaking slow I'm almost rotting already ok.

Regret of the day: I didn't patent my regret of the day. Now it's stolen by VegeLarry the Lizard!

Bawanie Rachel!! Hurry up and get a cbox!!! =)
Arrrgh! i bet some of you reading this a few hours from now are actually having a blast at the Hillsong concert now right? While I'm sitting here ranting on my blog pathetically...aarrgh!! I wish i was there! I wish i could drive!! I wish i had transport! How come everybody has assignments and can't make it?!

Nevermind nevermind. When I can drive. hmmm... Oh the sweetness! Oh the glory! Oh the power! haha...

Today wasn't so sweet for me. I went for that 6 hour punya crap talk for the driving thing. I don't even know why JPJ comes up with this kind of stupid "talks" for you to attend. It was very clearly a waste of time. The speaker was doing all he can to stall time. Coming up with some story about his life history lah, and explaining how to fill in the form which is simple enough to fill in with your eyes closed. And duuuude, it was already FILLED in for us by the driving school ok. And even if it wasn't, don't tell me we're all stupid enough not to know what "nama" and "alamat" in Times New Roman font, nothing less, means. And they made me wake up at 6.45am for that ok. it started at 9.20 or something. Baaabi. But oklah, I admit the practical part was quite helpful. I know how to, er, fill in battery water now, and clean the sides of the battery. (oh what an accomplishment!) Oh, and for those who like to fill in soap/shampoo into your wiper water tank, DON'T!

That aside, it was a leap of faith sharing Christ with a complete stranger today. In Chinese summor k! Duuuude. i couldn't come up with scripture haha. I got stuck in the middle of John3:16 in Chinese. But I'm glad I sowed the seed lah. hopefully it bears fruit. I remember how pastor John shared with us how he sows seeds in complete strangers on the plane, at wedding dinners, at dive sites, wherever lah! and it just seemed so easy peasy for him, and he was all selamba about it. And I thought, man, I wish i could do that! Dahlah wanna share Christ with my close friends already so hard, wanna share with strangers summor. And guess what? Today it just HAPPENED. God really works in ways we do not see. We can plan and work out when and where to share the gospel, and yet it is during times that we hardly expect, ie, when I'm half asleep and have to share in CHINESE, that God truly uses us. It was a test of faith, a leap of faith for me. It was, as far as i can remember, the first time i've ever shared the gospel with someone I didn't know, and I'm so glad i stepped out of my comfort zone to answer God's call. hopefully, there would be more "accident" happenings like that in the future. okay okay, it's not an accident. it's an appointed time. Of course, God, it would help a lot if you do not constantly make me share in Chinese!!!! hahaha...

Regret of the day: I missed Hillsong!!!!!!!!!!!!! And paintball yesterday!!!!!!!!!!! Why is this always happening to me??!! ish!!

Man, ever since college started, it's been real hectic. It's not even like I'm busy with assignments or lectures or whatever. It's just, I dunno? I've been out a lot lah. To the movies, to church, to Boston Baru(go figure ;p) ALMOST to seafood and eye on Malaysia... Time FLIES by I tell you, and I get NOTHING done. No blogging, no reading, no checking emails, no nothing. Now ny got time to plop my butt down here. But then again, I've been out a lot lah. I really should start to slow down lah. If this is already hectic for me, I don't even wanna know what my next semester and the sems after that are gonna be like!

But it's been a good week lah. Had a nice chat with Pat and Dinash over Nestum hekor(yum!), went for Shrek3 with Larry Dinash Steffi Wei Loong and got dragged all around JJ because the guys were horny and wanted to see this girl in a super short white minimicronanoskirt. Larry wouldn't let us go home until we found her (er, this was meant for you to read, CHOI YE! XD) oh and for those who haven't watched shrek, don't expect too much lah k. It's funny and entertaining and all, but really, keep your expectations low. Then we had worship training with David Gary which is why I couldn't go for seafood :(

This is for those who have been asking about my first week. College has been ok ok larh. Not really as happening as I expected it to be, but fun nevertheless. Met some really funny people who crack me up all the time (ok lah, actually only ONE person lah. He's this super goofball and his name is Jshakey. Go figure. hahaha! Everytime i spell his name I can't help laughing. And when you hear him explain why his name is spelt like that you'll crack up even further) Then there are some minor celebrities from K town clan the band in my class. Most of the people in my class are Chinese ed who can't speak English well. I was just griping to Bawanie and Titus that Chinese follows me everywhere I go. Why oh why! Not that I have anything against the language or the people lah. I mean, it's me, it's my root, it's my blood and I'm proud that I can read and write Chinese unlike some of you banaenahs out there, ;p but u know, I desperately need a change after 11 years of speaking Chinese in school everyday, know what i mean? Then i came to college and I thought. alrighty! Away with Chinese man! And here I am, speaking Chinese in coll... -.-"' I guess it proves that things REALLY don't turn out the way you expect them to all the time.

I digress. Been wanting to post pics up from camp, but since I'm like the busiest businesswoman on earth at the moment and even if i were to post the pics up now, it would be all stale already and you'd probably have seen them countless times...so for those who haven't seen any pics of camp langsung, i suggest you click HERE and HERE.

Regret of the day: I missed seafood and Eye on Malaysia!!!!!!!!!!! Boohoooooooooooooo!!!!

Just got home from camp and then went mamaking with ex classmates with my hypertired body...surprised i actually managed to keep my eyes open. Man I just felt super one kind speaking chinese again after months of not communicating in Chinese. Especially since I just got home from camp and my brain is rather cranky at the moment. U know the kind of feeling where everything around you just seems to be floating past? It's like you're in some trance or daze or something. Yeah i pretty much felt like that after coming home. But camp was gooooood, really. You'd be surprised but i actually had fun working under the scorching sun sweating my fats out(not that i have much of those, but still...haha...) I think all the leaders did an AWESOME job putting everything together, but I have to single out one person whom i think made all the difference lah...And that's Larry. He is truly one of a kind. A selfless leader, always willing to go the extra mile for the sake of others at the expense of himself. Never shows a sour face no matter how stressed out he is. Never complains even when the going gets tough. Cheers the kulis up so they actually have FUN working in the sun. A great example of a great leader with a servant's heart. Larry if you're reading this, just wanna say thx for being such a great example. I don't know how we would have managed without you man. U rock big shit!!! ;p Ok u can kembang a bit, but not too much larh. I scared your head cannot fit in the doorway lah. haha...

On the other hand, I've been having conflicting thoughts about confronting someone about things she said which really riled me up. She probably doesn't realise it but she really made me angry with some of her comments which in my opinion were meant to embarass/degrade me. I just snapped at her yesterday, and I don't normally snap at people. I really don't get her lah. Seems to me she's just trying too hard to feel superior?? I dunno... What's her probelm anyway?! Man I really need to lepas stim larh. I do not normally lepas stim on my blog but this is just too much. Wanted to talk to her yesterday but didn't get the chance to(and didn't have the guts to also actually). I didn't even want to look at her much less talk to her. But I really need to clear the air because I don't wanna hold grudges. It's just gonna eat me up inside. So, well, sigh. I'll find a way to talk to her about it. But I'm not looking forward to it really. And at the same time I'm thinking, am I maybe too sensitive? Maybe I should just laugh it off and pretend nothing ever happened. After all, that's what I do best. Put on a smiling face and pretend everything's ok when it's not...

ok I have to stop emoing. I'll talk to her. Soon.
