birthday update

very quick update here.. it's my birthday today! =)

the pump attendent at the petrol station flirted with me..
i was shocked! like seriously no joke~
it's something difficult to digest so early in the morning!

the speeches from my friends were terrifying~
i know i look mature for my age..
and they just had to emphasize on that! sigh..
but it's ok.. not that i haven't heard of it ever before..
at least i'll still look as young when i am older.. =P
thank you anyway, i appreciate that!

i had 1/2 the auditorium singing birthday song for me..
a bit malu la but it was a nice feeling~ hehe..
i heard different versions of the song after that..
my IMU friends are a bunch of talented people.. that's for sure!

played bowling with the girls.. i sucked big time but it was fun~

it was just play, play, play today.. hehe..
only classes till noon without revising anything!
i had Wellness Appraisal till around 5.30pm..
which further confirmed how unfit i am.. *shakes head*
the test should have been done when i was practicing badminton!

i was stuck in the jam for 2 freaking hours with Mae Yee..
we had a good laugh, talk and man-hunting session alright!
thank god she was there with me.. *winks*

anyway, thanks a bunch to well-wishers out there~
from sms to calls, blogs to facebook and face-to-face encounters!
thanks for making today a memorable day..

not forgetting the presents and cards.. *hugs*

it's MY day, they said.. =)

my 2nd week of September~

this week i was less busy, as in less classes to attend..
but i am fully loaded with assignments..
two is down, another two more to go! must finish by mid-week ok~

there were some pretty interesting stuff this week..
some of you may already know, Phoenix got 4th place in badminton..
we tried to kick some ass, but didn't make it..
oh well~ there's always next year to nail it.. hehe..
we can start training after EOS 2 and BDS 1!
btw, a girl from the winning team dislocated her elbow in the finals!

this week's Make A Difference (M.A.D.) events were pretty happening..
it's like an IMU Arts Festival were students participate in events like
photography, drawing, dance, music, speech, video-making etc..

have a look of the winning team from dance category, Masquerade..
one of them is Ai Ling, who taught us fan dance back in SMKBU!
they have pretty cool dance moves alright.. enjoy~

next is Music Appreciation.. no competition, just entertainment!
i think from our batch there were 2 teams:
Melissa's group and Carcinoma (yes, you saw it correctly)..
but i am gonna show you a clip of one of my OOs singing..
enjoy the 6 in 1 song by Kyan and Daniel!

now in another note, Bite and Impression Registration session!
this is our second time doing so.. and pictures as promised.. hehe..

we have to take the impression on each other using alginate..
Suet Yen is the operator, Eka is the patient and i am the assistant!

this is the leftover of the alginate mix..

how is it done? we added water into the powder..
stir quickly and steadily it until it's creamy and soft..
it changes colour from purple to pink then white as in hardens..

then we need to remove the impression from the mouth..
compare it with the teeth, wash and disinfect it.. no pictures for this!
and head down to the dental lab to make the mould..

most of us ended up with alginate all over our mouth like Pei Jie.. =P

the dental lab was pretty chaotic at that time.. lol..

Kai Shang attempting to pour the stone mix into the tray..

the vibrator is there to get rid of bubbles in the first layer..

end up with something like my maxillary and mandibular stones!

Sam placing some powder for plaster mix into the rubber bowl..
appropriate amount of water and powder is needed for all our mixes!

after that we'll put a lump of plaster mix on the tile..
invert the tray and place the dried stone mix on the top..

as the stone is settled down, remove the tray from the models..
this step requires patience, strength and determination.. hehe..

and it's time to trim and polish the models like Chong Dee..

please keep your fingers and teeth model away from the machine..
a safe distance at least, like what Je Haw is doing..

after everything is done, we pose and smile with our models! =)

ok, this is last of the triology of this blog post..
make sure you have already eaten alright.. don't say i didn't warn ya~

090909 was my parents' anniversary..
so we headed to Bavarian Bierhaus in The Curve for dinner..
it was my very first time trying out German food!

the menu cover.. thank god my dad was paying the bill.. =P

the ambience was not bad.. just a little too dark for my liking..
and there was no air-cond for that matter.. only fans leh~

they had really nice decorations on the walls though..

i ordered 6 in 1 Pentathlon Pace smoothie *yum yum*, consist of:
plain yogurt, peach fruit, ice-cream, apple, honey and orange juice!

my drink tasted better than my brothers'..
they had sour ice-blended Peach and Raspberry respectively.. hehe..
no beers for our family despite the on-going Happy Hour!

we had Sausage Platter.. 6 types of sausages grilled to perfection!

Crispy Roast Pork Knuckles with a freaking knife stuck at the top..

Barbeque Baby Pork Rib.. this is lovely! i want moreee~

and finally Gordon Blue.. it's stuffed with cheese and ham inside!

that's all for now.. i have a lotttt to revise.. wish me luck! =)

hello people!

i am back! =D

sorry for not updating in a while.. i was pretty occupied lately!
and no, i was not part of ME209 orientation..

i shall wait till Semester 3 to be an OO (Orientation Officer)!
yes, mark my words.. i'll make it through EOS 2!!!

i think i have problems with my time management.. =(
i spent a lot of time doing unnecessary stuff, non-academic related..
so i have like another 3 weeks of lecture to catch up on!
this did not happen in Sem1, why is it now?

but i believe everything will get back to normal staring Monday..
feel free to lash out on me if anyone sees me lazing around!
Joo Yong did a good job the other day..
i was taking my so-called "power nap" in the library..
and then she woke up instantly by shouting my name! =P

------------------------------End of Part 1----------------------------

now is the continuation of the last 2 weeks.. very brief one, i hope!

Chin Ning came down to KL the day of the IPTS debate..
since he brought us round Penang last holiday,
we promised him to eat duck rice when he is in KL..
so Mel and i took him and his girlfriend for a dinner at Long Foong!

freaking long queue for the duck wei~
non-stop chopping of ducks from the start of our dinner at 6pm
till we finish walking around the pasar malam around 8 something!

our dinner that night.. for FOUR people!

and i asked a stupid question resulting in roaring laughter..
but i knew the answers alright: ONE duck has ONLY TWO legs!!!

that week we had CPR Theory Exam, which i passed! ^^
people who didn't had to pay for the resit ok~

oh, on the first day puasa..
we were at Sheraton Imperial Hotel to break fast.. joking!
cousin CC's birthday that's why.. but we were the first to arrive..
not a good time to have buffet though..
cos it's not my favourite kind of food variety!

cousin CC bought a lot of party accessories for her guests..
from con-shaped party hats, guns and police cap for the boys,
to hairband and wand set for the girls, and annoying whistles!

Daniel blowing off the candle for his mummy..

cousin Syuen and my bro posing with some of the accessories~

up next is about another OHC session.. we did some cool stuff!
we took each others bite impressions, you know, moulding teeth?
no pictures though.. i will take some photos next time around!

then it was Boh's birthday on August 28th..
the entire batch was singing him a birthday song..
around 270 of us in the lecture theatre! just imagine~
it was seriously the first time hearing it so loud and clear..
cos usually not everyone sings..
and it is somebody's birthday every other day.. haha..

i took this picture with Tay's DSLR.. =D

Malaysian Philharmonic Youth Orchestra (MPYO) performance
in Sunway Convention Center on 29 Aug 2009 was lovely!
we went there to watch Chin Ning perform..

and guess who we met there? Jiexun, Ying Tian and family!
apparently they are good friends with each other..
and Ying Tian's sister was the concert mistress.. cool right?

me, Joo Yong and Shi Wen before the performance..
this was a successful 3rd attempt by me! pro right? =)

have fun with the following video..
ignore the guy's head, he was blocking my view half the time..
watching live was better though! hehe..

some of the 105 MPYO members and their funny conductor..

i had badminton match the next day, was part of women's doubles!
Phoenix won 7 out of 10 games.. i lost both, damn sad case..
but we will do well in the Semi-Finals and Finals tomorrow evening..
Phoenix just got to win that gold medal alright! =)

with some of the Phoenix badminton team for IMU Cup!

last but not least.. a picture of me and Chiew Yi on Merdeka Day!

not that we celebrated Merdeka or anything..
just that this seriously is our first picture together!
since like forever? yes indeed!
