it's my birthday

i would like to wish myself a happy chinese birthday....

22 chinese calander years ago, 1985年5月5日, 罗佩珊 was born.... yes, it's me (my chinese name le) * jumpling happily around with a wide grin on the face*

today, its 2006年5月5日... so i'm 22 chinese years old today (chinese calander)

why 5月5日 is so memorable? coz, it's also know as the day you all chinese people eat "bak chang"(hokkien), "yuk chung" (cantonese) ... also known now as Glutinous Rice Dumplings... where they have pork in glutenious rice, wrap with lotus leaves & boild them in hot water...

Read it up all here about the origin of "bak chang"... *a drip of hunny*

i use to eat lots of (eat)* revised* them every Chinese Birthday of mine until i come to KL. My grandmother will make a whole bunch for me... yes, that whole bunch just for me... huahahha... no more fresh bak chang to eat on such a memorable day...

i so miss it now... but she(my grandma le) promise to 'pou fan sou' when im back in PG next month... huahahhaha...

Co-incidently, my sister was also born on 05/05, but its 5th of May. The English calander le... but its still FIVE FIVE ma...

another meaningful vid...

how did u do the raining effects? or was it real?? u all waited till it rains? but it do look real...

curi-curi from Tom's blog *a.k.a. Thomas, another RIKL member* ... He's Zhi Yung 's friend. (one of the 3 guys in my previous post videos,*farewell party*)

the worst driving experience i ever HAD in life...

Saturday was suppose to a happy day. A bit sad too le, coz its was Joe's farewell. But its suppose to be a fun day to party & wipe out all my asgns.... but the rain on Saturday hit me the worst...

On our way to Cyberia, Evangeline's place. (Jolene was car pooling with me). I drove as usual, eventually took the Old Klang Road way.

But heck, while I was talking about our beloved Miss Su to Jolene the rain get worst. At a traffic light, it was red then. I need to halt me car. We could actually feel my car shaking because of the wind. That already scares me. In my mind *what if the wind got so bad that it blow my car off the road*. The trees along the road looks terrible d. & i could hardly see the road while waiting for the green light. When the light turn green, the wind decrease a bit. Atleast i manage to see the road with a better view.

Then all cars start to move to the right lane. It was a two-lane road & i was on the right. So i just continue moving slow. I could see the water rose abit on the left. It was "teh-tarik" colour. It was then my turn to cross the "teh-tarik" water. (the water already reach the right side abit when i reach there) All of the sudden, this Black Honda came out from no where & over took me. (a black old modified & lowered Honda Civic, cant remember the plate number).

The black Honda starts to move slower. I begin to get worried. My car still able to move fast en0ugh on that water level. But because of this STUPID black Honda over-took me all of a sudden, I got stuck in the teh-tarik water. Okay, I begin to freak out at that moment. I could feel the SHAKE. I think my car really shook & I was also shaking. I kept on Accelerating in free gear but i've felt so ****** (i was really freaking out that time, no words to describe)... Then i got-into first gear, but my car couldn't move at all. Oh-no... I'm stuck... So I wind-down my window, I look out & the water should had rose till around my knee level then. I feel like im in a boat on "teh-tarik". THIS IS NO LONGER A CAR. I even got worried more. I took my hand out the window & wave... I do not know what to do....

The black Honda car later release black smoke from its exhaust pipe. Padan muka... OVER-TOOK me le...

The cars behind me begin to reverse. At this time, Jolene saw the "teh-tarik" was flowing into my car, from the slits of the door. We got nervous now. I begin to think was if the water continue to flow in & fill up my car. What if my car died of at that TIME? I cant open the door, the water will come in faster. Should I climb out the window and leave my car?

But with the faith *or what ever you call* I have at that moment, I change to reverse gear & my car could actually RESERVE. (I still do not understand till today, how was the possible when i can move forward, i did ask a few guys but they've got no answer for me. Maybe it was God who helped me out. Thank you, my Lord, my Saviour.)

I kept on tekan minyak.... & my car was moving back-wards. I was a little relief at that time. I'm going to get out from the teh-tarik soon. On my left, there was this smaller road which is on higher ground. Without much thought, I took a left turn *thank God that at that moment, all of a sudden, my car could move forwards* on higher ground.

Me, Jolene & my car at last on higher ground... We went out of the car & start to scoup out the teh-taraik which sips into my car earlier. It was still raining outside but we still continue scouping the water. We were all WET... Thank you Jolene for helping me to scoup the teh-tarik...

I just left my engine on while we scoup *scared i cant restart my engine after the teh-tarik dip*. But it went off while we were scouping. I got panic and YES, i called my dad in Penang. Which I should have thought, he could not do a think about it. But I was panic, he told me to try start the engine, thank God it starts...

Ya, i had place my sling-bag near my legs area while i was driving all the while. I only realise about my bag while i was turning left into the higher ground. Luciky i did not left my hand phone in the bag, if not, my less than 2 months old phone will be gone case again. I had place in in my bottle holder, near the gear. Only my ear-piece & purse was inside. My ear-piece still can work, the water went into my purse a bit. But thankfully, my credit card & bonus link card still can use... lol... (isi petrol penuh after that, incase i ran out of petrol in such a horrible weather).

I also found a few things floating in my car when I was scouping the teh-tarik out. my socks & some bottle behind. We had took out pots of Tom Yam & chicken on the seats... They are safe from the teh-tarik... no worries to those who had makan them in cyberia...

****sorry no pics of the flood, I was too panic & takut to remember to take picture... sure le.. who will take pics when you are in the SITUATION****

We reach Cyberia around 8pm. Joe, Emily & Kelvin came down to help us take our pots. Emily actually thought Jolene just took a bath before we came. huahahahaha... Jolene was dressed in jeans & t-shirt. So the rain water was still soaking in her clothes. I was in shirt & surf shorts, get dry faster.

When we reached Evan's place, everyone was so well dressed. At least the host was in a dress & pretty earings. Me and Jolene was wet and dirty from the teh-tarik earlier... So we decided to change to atleast cleaner & deceant clothings. I thought Raleigh ma, mostly also in t-shirt & shorts one... hehehe... mana tahu, the place got atmostphere also... with nice lightings...

the night goes of with makan, then the performance by the 3 guys who's leaving Malaysia for UK. Joe's friend, Kelvin ( i think first time meet most of us) kene buli by the Raleigh too... huahahaha...

this was what happened that night:-

the 3 guys need to get DRESS

GURNEY

anyone from Penang or in Malaysia knew what "gurney" means?

We have Gurney Drive, Gurney Plaza, Gurney Walk, Gurney Place & plain 'gurney'... but did anyone ever thought or came across their mind, what does Gurney means... all this while i thought it was a 'given name'. Mayb it given historically... but we never bother to Question it... because as we mostly juz got comfortable with it.. we've know the 'name' from our earlier generations.. so never bother to ask...

It actually means....

Gurney = A metal stretcher with wheeled legs, used for transporting patients.
*source*

yes, what we mostly called, a "stretcher" or a "trolly". Mostly use in a hospital, a moveable 'bed' to move patients around... Can find them in Ambulance & ER...


I came across this world while i was watching 24. i learned a LOT from 24.
Eg: shooting techiniques, scripts, human reactions, human behaviors, other's POV, their jargons(use in CTU), how high-tech our world had achieve (mostly US have the $$ to own such resources), politics & much much more... I even took down notes while i was watching it... might be useful next time... Kevin was little shocked when i actually wrote notes while watching such an action series... huahahahah...

so, watching TV is never a waste of time... u can also learn while watching TV... for me... i've LEARNED a LOT... & i've still many many years of TV/movies watching to learn from...

twenty four... it's ticking its way round twice....

i was in Singapore last weekend.. was busy trying to get as much asgn done before leaving... I know going for a 4/5days holiday during the end of the semester was a tough thing to do. Which makes me very fully loaded with asgns now.

And because i've watch Season 1 "24" a TV series about 2 weeks ago, it had tempted me to watch the second Season. It's so tempting because, the DVD had been sitting in my living room shelves since i stay here... Juz slip it S1E1 into the player while i found it while i was cleaning the house. There was how it begins...

Until an hour ago, i've completed Season 2. It's a very good production. All scenes were suppose to be running at REAL TIME. Check out here to read more about *24*.



I watch the production video of the second season. It comes a DISC 7 in season 2. A whole DVD on its making by the Producers, Directors, Talents, Crew & everyone else on board. It's just make me more it go into "their world" of filming. But it's juz so different here in Malaysia, because:

1. BUDGET. yes we do not have that much of $$$....
2. when we cant get that $$$, our resources are limited. RESOURCES
3. the TECHNOLOGY. We are still so back behind... but Malaysia filming industry is growing at the moment... at a pace where it might takes a century to reach where HOLLYWOOD are now.
4. Lots of other factors.... etc.

But... I still have a whole big world out there. The industry is juz too big for me to decide now or even after I've graduate. I've thought of going into Producer's line... i think "Directing" is too much for me. Too much preasure to be a "good director". Into the Broadcasting line, eg: in television, on set & etc. (still too wide). I'm also interested with Events Management... I think its going to be as much preasure as a Director. But When u're in such an industry, every role you want to play have BIG PREASURE. That's why they earn good $$$. But you need to be really in love with what you are doing so & also in-love with it. If not, you might juz have a major crash/breakdown.

Jack Bauer, the lead in 24

After watching "the making", only i realise Second Season was shot in 2003. 3 years ago. They took 9 months to shoot a whole complete season. Which actually took me 18 hours to watch each season. They've spend a lot of time to DO THIS. What they did had inspired me... I'm wordless now... I've learn much more about the ''politic'' world. I've never took interest into politics. It's juz too much & I dunt think it will be related to what i'm studying now. But, NO... it's always related... My lecturer even teach world politics which makes me bored in class... *okay*... not related dee.. nvm

i check the NET & realise 24 had already been aired till Season 5. Season 6 will be out early next year, 2007.I'm so out-dated...

Right now, i'm still very obsess with 24 with my pile of asgn high up, almost reaching the ceiling... hopefully, i will have the mood to complete all my asgn next weekend or tops, 9th June 2006.

Cause, I'll be leaving for Port Dickson on the 10th of June 2006. never been there my before... huahaha... ya, sadly RIKL AGM change venue, I wont be going to Cherating dee... *hiks*... hope it'll be as fun as it wud be in Cherating...

I will blog about my Singpore trip when i've got the mood. Took too much pics & vids... I burn them into 3 CDs... THREE... Its more than 2GBs... huahahahha.... so check it out when i'm on the mood...

cherating....

yea yea... Cherating here i come... coming June 10th, 2006... huahahahahha.... muahuahahahah

my first presentation for this seMester

It was for Joe's MHC 292... It's a MCI like module... lots of theories, nothing else plus theories of Multimedia & its history.....

After my presentation, i was Bianca's... we do not need to be well dressed to present, as long as what we present make sense & it better does... huahahha....

She was in tee, jeans & slippers... yes, slippers... lol... & i thought i was casual enough for it... lol....

After the class ends, i headed back to Amel's place.. to return her laptop... Thx lots for it ya... non of the presenter on that day brought one... & they called it a Multimedia lap... when all the eMacs in CMB3 do not even have Microsoft Power Point or even Microsoft in them.... I know its expensive to get a real one for Macs... but we, Mass Comm students need their labs to be well equipt too... That's y we are always bothering the Archiltectual Labs.... coz they they have Microsoft & we dont...

Me & Amel candid... she was trying out my new gadget.... with her shaky hands...

A snap of Udong, belongs to the Amel & housemate gang Nici family.. they have loads of Nici stuff in the house... lol

Amel's housemate, Angel: also another big fans of Pooh... she even printed my name of Pooh stickers for me as souveniers from Indo last sem... lurv it lots... thx...

But she also like to curi my Pooh stuff... & i'll try to curi back one of hers... huahahha....

shoPping...

1[PEI]2 atlast finish her exams... suddenly SMS ajak me for movies.. but when i called back, movie canceled... lol... so we juz ended up shopping & also ON back for movies... because i really wanted to catch a movie badly... *as usually le*...

this was how the day goes...

saw some fashion show in Midvalley center stage... but it was too crowded... that week was Midval fashion week... a few brands doing their walks on different days... It was Salabianca & Philosophy that day...

Then we walk into Giordano... I tried these on...

It was really comfy & moreover with my lovely Pooh on it.... but... RM49 for a white top... need to think really lots of time..

I'm juz so sure I will dirty it as soon as i wear it out...

So, gave it back to the salegirl sadly...

At ZARA, saw a brown skirt... was nice...

Then a black one... both for the same price... ofcourse ...

I WENT for the black one... huahahha... you should have guess it too right...

Around 9:30pm, we went into the cinemas for "She's the Man", we missed the whole first 20 minutes of it.. It's juz so not me right... all Pei's & her bf fault le... when would i go into a cinema that late?? early 20 minutes got le... lol... but the show was nice...

That's all for the day....

*********************************************************************************

more shopping the next day at KLCC... while we came out from Topshop, there was a Canon (or some camera brands) promoting their products le... so we walk in & see... they were offering a shot with their highly MP digital SLR for RM3 per pic. But the only background they had was pink. So I did not wanted to. Why should i pay Rm3 for a pic taken with a b/g i dunt like, its juz a SLR... so??...

while the man persuaing 3 of us to take, *talking to me mostly* Pei Pei was looking at some pics he had taken... & noticed a girl look 85% like Maria, yes Maria Leow.... so we all happily look at the pic & laugh...

PICTURE of the Skinnier version of Maria hugging someone tightly...

So, as usual, I took out my hp & switch on the camera mode... & snap... lol... the camera guy who was talking to us.... told "This camera is much more better than mobile phones camera"... we did even bother what he was saying juz continue laughing... lol... He said that when i took out my hp & snap the pic... lol... Ofcourse your SLR is much better than my 1.3mp le... lol...

That was juz so memorable... lol...

Other than that, nothing else more exciting than this lo... lol..

THE KLCC famous FCUK...

& the crampy LRT back to YMCA...

that's all the shopping of me & Pei in KL before she leaves back to penang....

Quiksilver Revolution party...

Sunway Lagoon is the place where Malaysia's biggest suRfing event begins....

really a great & nice experience... first time been to such an event... lebih lagi.. organise by Quiksilver lo...

at the event...

Sunny day @ the beach... all looking at the surf performance.. i cant manage to get a perfect shot during the Aussie guy surfing...

Me & Kenneth after having a quick dip at the beach pool... gave way to the surfers to perform...

No idea wat happened to the boy, but an Ambulance drove in to pick him up... & with his family.. so sad... dunt get to play anymore...

and Guess what... QUIKSILVER giving 20% discount store wide... + 10% if u're in beachwear...

This outlet is in the Sunway Lagoon itself. Not the one you see in Sunway Pyramid. much smaller too le..

They gave give such good deals before... when was the last time you see a discount tag for Quiksilver / Roxy new arrivals?

Tempting le...

But to bad... i did not manage to get even 1 QUIKSILVER or ROXY at the shop... All the "things" that i've aim at their outlet in Sunway Pyramid before, was not in the shop... so they are smart too ya... Those super nice stuff aren't discount... damn it...

when night Falls.... the party jus continue & gets better too...

NIGHT skating, performed by the experts.. not sure who are they...

At night, they Quiksilver people threw Quiksilver & Roxy wallets, T-shirts to people... but because of the large crazy crowd, i did not manage to get any of them... I almost got squashed by those malays... so i juz gave up...

As the night gets in, suddenly im surrounded by Malays (guys & girls) & most of the malay gurls came in bikini lagi... i really got shocked man... the chinese suddenly getting lesser... Maybe they've been taken over by the Malays...

I left around 9:45pm... too crowded with Malay so i juz chau le...

while walking back to my car... i saw this..

Juz another Pooh fanatic like me... but is juz that he own's a scooter not a Saga... lol...

now, im juz super pRouD that there's juz another person like me living in the Klang Valley... lol

although i know, spending that much of money to get his scooter cover with Pooh & his friends... not sure the owner its a guy or a gurl too... lol... but who cares... I know a guy pooh lover too... lol...

P/S: the above pictures were all taken with my NEW Motorola V3i.

Sorry for some blur pics... too bad i did not bring my new gadget into the water, if not can get more action pics in Close Ups (CU)...

there were many impersonating of movie characters... such as VENDETA, LOTR, Star Wars, Pirrates of the Carrabian & many more...

but i was so glad that i got to meet with the stars from GUBRA.

Any idea who she is?

Never knew she was this hot... The "peranakan" in Sepet & Gubra, yes, Jason's mother... the one who always wear her traditional dress... Never can guess she was this young... good job...

i even got the STARS to sign me their posters....

Its hanging high up on my wall now... next to it its the Quiksilver 1... lol...

modernity...

Malaysians have always wanted to live like the Westerners... as the claim to live in a modern world... But come to think of it, does Malaysians (Asians) really want to live exactly like them?

From the point of view of our diets, it's just so different. We just love good food. Not just well proper food but also our hawker food our the chinese 8 course dinner. We often eat delicious food which is bad for our diet. Come to think of it, I still cant think of a healthy Malaysian food which everyone of us like. Are there any??

But the Westerners do have their diets plan properly. Where they do not have heavy meal for each each in a day. If they want to enjoy a descent meal with their love ones or family, then they would prefer a dinner. For lunch they would go for light snacks such as sandwitches... Coz they are expecting a nice and heavy meal at night... (which is not at good also le)... but compare to us... we want all our meals nice.... do we???

Special thanks to the States for they had created KFC & McDonalds'.... which is desceasing their health diet at the moment...

So should we actually follow the Westerner's diet as to claim our self to live in a modern world???....
Who defined MODERNITY, that we(Asians) must follow the westerners to live in a modern world???

just suddenly thought about this while i was cooking for my Instant noodles in the kitchen... lol.... yes, especially INDO MEE... its super tasty... not the Malaysia made one, those Made in INDO ... try it for yourself... lol....

look-a-like...

so surprice to hear Maria wanna teman me watch Election 2... the last movie in my list that she would teman me watch that movie... why??? because Louis Koo is the lead actor ma... lol....

while i was watching Election 2... Louis Koo at last appear on the silver screen... hehehehe...

He's juz so SUPER TAN now... wat happened to him for the past year??? But i'm juz so glad he's back involve in the industry after a long period of time...

Ya... regarding to wat i wat to blog this time.. is.... juz look at the pic below...

DO THEY???? Please comment on this... thank you....

I juz came across my mind while i was watching Election 2... lol

BELOW: We were suppose to get 2 ping pong balls out from the grey paip u see in the pic... it has 6 holes at the bottom part. (holes as the size of 10 cents) See also the big red pail, we were not allowed to touch that. Outside the red pail, it's surrounded by a circle of stones. Its around 1.5meter in diameter. We were also not allowed to step inside. But Delta group members were smart enough to be the only group to get the 2 ping pong balls out from the paip... whooowooooo.....

BELOW: Crossing over the electric fence. The middle part of this rectangular u see its suppose to be a bottomless pit. Delta did not manage to get even 1 person across... Broke record for this game... lol... But we have a great time figuring it out...

Delta's Jumbo Sale...

first of all would like to greatly thank you to all my group members for allowing me to be the Project Manager. Our Jumbo Sale was a great success.

The members were very helpful, special thanks to Jolene & family for letting us to use their place to store our stuff, i mean there are lots of it... & also for the foods & drinks that they have prepare for us..... Make all of us miss our home cook food. Most of us are not locat from KL ma...

Also to those who help us in transportation.... a very good thank you for helping us in fetching the stuff to Mont Kiara.... They are Alan, Lii, Tim, Din, Intan, Shirleen, Vincent, Roger & Jolene's dad. THANK YOU all very much....

On the Jumbo Sale, (30 April 06, Sunday)

Actual plan was, those who are helping us in transporting the stuf to meet at Jolene's at 8:15am...

I plan to reach there before 8am, atleast can finalise some stuff before loading them into the cars... Mana tahu, when i reach around 7:45am with Aishah, Alan & Lis reach earlier than us.... waiting in the living room d... Wah!!!! so early le u all.... malu nia.... Thank you so much for helping us ya...

When i look at our stuff in Jolene's house, they are already properly stack up & divided. Thanks to Jolene for everything... U had help us a LOT....

Later on Intan arrive, her Unser was fully loaded... Aishah followed Intan's car, all 3 cars, (Alan, Li & Intan) left from Jolene's around 8:20am. This is earlier than I thought, i think they had breakfast 1st lo....

Vincent & Ei Lyn reach later... we started to load more stuff into their cars... & headed to Mont Kiara...

Moments later, Tim arrive, some guy who almost went for RIKL IW 2 years ago but missed it because he was sick the day before... He got to know about our Jumbo Sale & help us LOts.... thank you again...

Then Din arrive with Evangeline... she printed some stuff & loaded Din's car with more stuff...

Tim & I went to Mont Kiara 1st to unload our car....

AT MONT KIARA

by the time i reach there, it was already 9:25am, we are still okay on our time. Everything is fine... except we have lots of stuff to arrange...

Those who arrive earlier like Ezra, Alan, Li, Vincent & Ei Lyn had already started to sort things out...

Our umbrella was only 8x8 feet... but we have loads of stuff in boxes, bags & everything else...

Our first transaction took place before 10:00 am. It was RM10. I was not sure what it was but somebody pass me RM10... lol

In the end, the management ask us to pindah tempat... Because we have too much stuf... Really sorry for our spot. I expected the sales is juz at average, so I did not wanted to take up 2 booths or more. We need to pay RM65 per booth, if spend less, then atleast we can untung more ma... But things went beyond expectation....

Around 10:30am at the new place, we sort out our things again... We have loads & loads of stuff to sell... I think we have more than 50 pairs of school shoes... more than 5 boxes of books & magazines & comics... & lots more of random stuff...

Before noon, business was juz cold but still okay. We manage to cover up the rent for the booth. By then lots of RIKL members came to help us... They are Vic (some photographer, he took lots of pics. I did not took more than 20 pics for this JUMBO SALe... really sorry... no time to do that as i was busy, so really thank him for taking our pics), Adrian, Shirleen, Eddie, Li Ping, Szu Mei, & many many more which I do not know them well yet & also forgotten their names(sorry ya)... but thank you all so much for making our project a successful one.

By 1:30pm, we need to change stategy, prices started to slash, things went as low RM2 or RM1 each. The packets of oats was sold at RM2 each, a lady bought all of it. (we think she bought from us & sell to others at a higher price to others too... lol.. jk). A lady bought a nice & well ELMO for juz RM2 too... that ELMO was nice le... RM2 was super cheap... Luciky I safe my TIGGER too... huahahhaha... It's hopping around with me now... lol....

around 3:00pm, a lady approach us if we want to sell the white board, yes the one we wrote [RM2] on it... Yes, of course we want to sell it off... so we got another RM3 from the white board... Yes, so now we left our voice to SHOUT... no more board.. lol

At 3:30pm, business was still not going that fast, & we still have lots of stuff, we change plan again, things now go as low as RM1 each. our business was super great then... Everyone came to buy our stuff... It was really cheap... Some of the RIKL members bought too... ya, they waited till RM1 only buy... lol...

We need to change the price also because we see the weather started to change.Almost 4pm & CLOUDY, no sunshining at us..... Then everything is selling at RM1 each... we had a great respond from the public...

We manage to sell as much as possible at RM1. I started to worry about the weather by4:15pm. We started to pack up the rubbish & some stuff into bags & boxes.

During the sales, a small girl came back many times to buy stuff from us.. She was so cute... lol....

At 4:35pm, i felt a drop of rain. It was time to pack up everything. We hurriedly pack our stuff & hide under the shades.

Even at such a time, there are still people who wants to buy our clothes. Yes, under the umbrellas. lol... They are the cleaners there... digging those clothes from the box...

Those who are all packed start loading our left overs into Alan's & Li's cars. Some went into Vincent's & some into Shirleen's car.

By 5:00pm we are all at Jolene's house again. They had all arrive, waiting for me eagerly... yes, the cash was all with me... lol.... Can lari with the wang ya... lol

We started counted, I got more than RM1000 in hand. Only then i realise, some money is with Roger & he's still not back yet... lol... mayb he left with the money... lol.... jk...
