boy it's been a rough week...
okay. lemme see... when did i last update...?
ahh yess. chinese new year.
welllll....
since cny alot has happened. i mean, alotlot. like. alotlot (you get what i mean laaaa).
for starters, i started classes again after the holidays. well, not exactly a lot, you might say, but believe me when i say, class starting is a LOT of work. -.-.... well. chongchong is back in business, ms nesa is rushing thru bio as usual (since we got a LOT to cover before our TWO major exams this year... like... a LOTLOT... like..... you get the drift) mr. ala is comfortably breezing thru physics theory (and me very malas wana do d exercises in d big, thick, heavy book of past year questions) and ms see teaching statsII (which i ALSO very malas wana do d exercises in d big, thick, heavy textbook), and ms joy teaching gp (presentation + essays. dont reli mind d presentations. essay... i feel very... yea u guessed it. malas.) didnt see ms ann in class tho (which means... i didnt touch her homework either... xp). she onli teaches on thursdays n fridays. thursday the lecturers had a staff cny lunch, and friday i wasa off to cambodia. which leads me to point number two....
cambodia. yes i went holiday. lemme tell u d whole story first. long ago, dad asked me n bro whether our schedules are clear for d trip. 6 to 9 february. den i said got skul on friday n monday ma. he said friday we can go after my classes (which end at 12.30 on fridays) and monday is public holiday coz of thaipusam on sunday. so okay lorh. den last week i found out dat we're leaving on friday morning. how did i find out? dad let slip dat my grandfather, yeh yeh as i call him or YY for short, has to stay overnight at our subang place on thursday night coz friday morning gotta fly off. i was like, huh? friday morning? u mean i gotta skip classes on friday morning?? den he said nvm la, i onli got like 3 hours of classes on friday morning. so asked me to skip. very very very reluctantly i agreed. much to my mum's dismay. mum believes that studies comes before anything else. and i agree. but my dad says onli 3 hours, can catch up. so anyways i agreed. den the night before the trip, on thursday night, i overheard my dad talking on d phone dat he's going overseas til tuesday. tuesday?? i waited for him to end his call. den i questioned him. he said yeah all d while it was 6 to 10 february. but even my brother thot it's 6 to 9th. like wtf? now i have to skip friday AND tuesday too?? he said we're reaching lcct at 11.30. can reach my coll by 12.30. but my classes start at 11.30! den he said nvm only 1 hour. that night, i didnt dare tell my mom. but sooner or later it would come out anyway. the next morning in the taxi to lcct at 5am, bro smsed mom. mom called me and then started shouting n scolding n basically being very very very pissed at my dad. to her credit, she has NEVER asked me to skip school EVER BEFORE. when i was in form 3, before we shifted to setiawangsa, she had to send me to school one morning coz i tink i woke up late, too late for d bus. den as she was speeding down jalan ipoh, a thai monk decided to dash across d road, and my mum knocked her. she was alrite, my mum (after a brief period of going crazy) was alrite too. still, my mom sent me to lrt station and then went to police station. and she's probably one of the biggest reasons why I SCORED PERFECT 100% ATTENDANCE FOR ALL FIVE YEARS IN SECONDARY SCHOOOL. so anyways. back to the cambodia mess up. den my mum over the phone scold scold scold n everything. finally she forbade me to go on d trip. which i didnt really object la. cambodia. dont go. so what? i'll get to see michelle n sms her n call her n all anyways. n i'll have d weekend off. den at lcct my dad was like "why is your mum all out to ruin our holidays plans??" den somehow a compromise was reached (although my mum still didnt agree) by my dad spending an extra rm350 to change my return flight one day earlier. so here i am. alone at home. my dad n bro n YY still at cambodia. i din reli miss much la. i like it better here anyways. but my mum is still pissed. me n my bro are supposed to surrender our passports to her for safekeeping.... and making sure my dad doesnt steal me away from college again.
so, cambodia! yes, angkor wat and what not. tuk tuk was interesting! its actually a motorbike pulling a little cart. and im sitting in d cart. haha. bumpy ride! what i rmbr most abt cambodia is dat d place is damn dusty n dry n sandy! of coz, it's d dry season there now ma. the tonle sap lake swells to like 10 times its size during rainy season or something lidat. haha. and the food was good! not too different la from malay food. a lot of lemon grass and basil leaf used. coconuts are a fav drink there. my bro tried a rather peculiar...... local delicacy. it's called balut. or in Khmer (their language) something that sounds like "phon tia khun". it's just a duck egg. but what makes it so special and so weird dat my dad n YY n myself are unwilling to try it? okay. dad said la (not verified to be true) a duck egg typically takes 21 days to develop after being fertilized, to become a chick. this "phon tia khun" is also referred to as the 20 day egg. well. basically when my brother broke the boiled egg open, it was half egg inside and half chick. yeah. semi-developed chick. almost-there-chick. chick-that-nearly-became-chick-but-didnt. yeah. and as my brother was eating it, he took out semi developed bones, one duck foot, and a few feathers. YES. FEATHERS. but my bro said it's almost tasteless. very subtly, there's the taste of a very dry boiled yolk. u noe, if u boil an egg n eat d yolk by itself. but the broth that's inside d egg was very very good, apparently. tasted like a real, proper, chicken soup, he said. oh well. perhaps when im 23 i'll try something like that. haha. just to creep michelle out. xp she'll never want another kiss. xp
so yeah. it seems that i'm a very busy guy, no? haha. dont blive arr. vina oso say "having Michelle update your blog for you samo" haha. well. im inviting everybody lor to guest blog. coz usually i talk n talk n talk til dry dy my blog. according to my site tracker, my views dipped to 70+ in d last week. haha. well at least i still update lorh. ehemehemLESLEYcoughcough. xp
well. i wana post something sometime abt a topic that caught my interest. something like a gp essay title la. but i thought it up all by myself. hehe. i'll just tell y'all d title, den later (later can mean tomorrow, next week, or next month k!) i'll blog on it.
"Knowledge decreases our appreciation of beauty."
well when i first thought it up i was in cambodia, in the tuk tuk as we drove on d sandy, bumpy roads with my shades n cap and mask. i was thinking. well yeah the angkor wat and angkor thom and etc etc. thinking in d modern world la k. wah klcc. eiffel tower. yada yada yada. very nice meh? i noe how they all built it. nothing great oso. look kinda ugly oso. like two pineapples sticking out of kl. d pyramid very beautiful meh? i declare myself god-king and force thousands of people into slavery just to build my final resting place. very nice meh? i duno.
