Happy Mid-Autumn Festival

it's MAF again... this year is my 3rd year of not celebrating MAF at home :'( took part in a lantern riddle competition at PJ SS17 with Huai Lin and Hooi Shan, and we won 2 toasters! wow!!!
went to Tunku Chancellor Hall last night for Tanglung Festival. The play was not as good as last year's, but we all had fun there.
Life is still busy nowadays...
Just had my Rubella vaccination 2 hours ago at my residential college.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

just finished reading the book, nice & interesting! :)
alright, for those who haven't read the book yet, don't read any further, i don't want this entry to be a spoiler to you :)
well, i can conclude that the moral of the story is (wow.. sounds like Moses Lim in Under One Roof huh? :P) love, courage and trust :)
J.K. Rowling is very good at writing the book with suspense in almost every chapter to make sure that her readers stick to the story and read until the end of it, where all the mysteries and secrets are unveiled.
I was quite sad and felt embarrassed for myself when i learnt that Severus Snape was actually not a Death Eater at all, at least not to his wish as he was forced to, well, in a mission :) It's very touching that he'd loved Lily Evans (Potter) for all his life, he must be very heart-broken when Lily chose James Potter in the end. I can't deny that Albus Dumbledore had actually used him, despite for the well being of everyone. Well done, Snape! For your bravery and loyalty :)
As for Albus Dumbledore, we should be glad that he realised his mistakes early and chose to fight his long-lost friend, Gellert Grindelward, again, for the sake of mankind :) He'd understood everyone around him well, as those he could read their mind. That's why his plan was carried out smoothly and almost flawless.
However, i think that Rowling has put the part of Ronald Weasley leaving Harry Potter and Hermione Granger and reuniting with them too 'amazing' and a bit 'fake'. Well, that's what i think :)
The part i don't really like about this book is, the 3 main characters have been shouting at each other as they're having bad temper due to the Horcruxes they carried and the stress of hunting down the rest of them. It makes the readers mad too!
And the epilogue is a bit redundant and sounds like a make-up. I personally feel that the story can end better without it. By the way, some readers do find it interesting and eager to know more about their lifes without Tom Riddle, after reading that chapter :)
All in all, this is a good and worth-reading book.

I NEED HELP!

for those who knows how to use codes like HTML / CSS, etc. please have a look at my template codes... i'm not sure why my sidebar is always at the bottom :'(
i'm not sure whether i've accidentally deleted any codes or not.. tried to put !---sidebar--- but it doesn't work! i think my template uses div id="sidebar" (please note that i didn't include the brackets as it'll be read as a code) and i think it's equivalent to !---sidebar---. sigh~ can anyone please help? :'(

Tokyo Drift...

just watched The Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift on DVD at home... Cool! But i'll never drive like them in the movie... It's too dangerous! Might be drifting to another world before i realised it :P
quite a nice movie, about friendship and justice... one should be resposible for his own doing :)
added juniors into my Friendster friend list...
argh... i've no mood to study for my coming Pharmacology test... feel like blogging... but i've no idea on what to blog on...
have been having weird dreams these days... (not wet dreams lah, please! =.=) not nightmares, they are just weird...
went RedBox Karaoke last month. Realised that my voice isn't that nice anymore compared to when i was in primary school.. hey, i was the choir leader in primary 3, ok!
went Starhill Gallery last month, just looking around lah... things there are too expensive for me :P the toilet is so cool! anyone who hasn't been there yet please go and have a look! :)
my mission for this holiday: eat, eat, and eat more! :)

At home...

went shopping with mum on National Day, some departmental stores even had up to 70% discount! bought many clothes as many of my formal clothes are too loose; lost some more weight:'(
tasted Thai food at a newly opened restaurant near my house with my family. Quite nice.
Argh... suddenly felt so bored of blogging... actually, the main purpose of me blogging is to let my friends be updated on what and how i'm doing... i think i've mentioned about this in a previous entry... but i'm quite disappointed that only a handful are willing to spend their time reading my blog :( what to do? it's partly my fault too...as i seldom update it due to my packed schedule and laziness to bring my laptop down to the dining hall and study room to get wireless connection.
Heard that there's a proposal on getting full wireless coverage in 6th college. Hope that we'll get to enjoy it as soon as possible :)
diarrhoea... just came out from the loo... 3rd time today... not sure what's wrong...
chatting to seniors and juniors and friends in Windows Live Messenger...
one thing that i'm puzzled about WLM users is, most people tend to set their status as 'away' despite being right in front of the computer! it's so disappointing to see almost all of your online contacts are 'away' :'(

Hols till 9th of Sept.

Finally, i'm home after 2 months of life at UM :)


July

Busy orientating juniors and orientating myself to the new environment (new hostel room) and new academic year, with more responsibilities and challenges!

My little buddies are Bee Chin and Charlene (has changed course to Law due to some personal reasons).

Went buddy outing with the rest of the buddies in my buddy line to One Utama. Had a sumptious dinner at Bar.B.Q Plaza :)


August

Shifted room twice to give way to renovation work. Now my room floor is tiled and we've a new door :) It looks nicer, cleaner, brighter, and more like a 'room' now! But it'll be perfect if it has wireless connection in the room :) Well, proposals have been made and brought up to the accomodation college administrators, hope it'll be passed as soon as possible.

Coursemates went Taiwan to attend the annual Asia-Pacific Dental Student Association (APDSA) Scientific Reserch Conference (SRC) 2007. Thanks for the souvenirs ya!

By the way, Malaysia wil be hosting APDSA SRC 2009, with UM being the main host. I'm the Local Organising Committee (LOC) External Secretary. Might need to attend a meeting with leaders from other universities in other countries in Thailand next year together with the International President 2009 - Meng Yit (my roommate), Liaison Officer - Jia Min, and LOC President - Chung Nam.
My coursemates & I have to attend APDSA SRC 2008 in Surabaya, Indonesia next year to promote Malaysia.
All these mean i need money, money and lotsa money!!!
Luckily we are partially sponsored, but only 'partially'. Meaning we still have to fork out some money...
Last Saturday, i went Petaling Jaya SS24 to have DimSum breakfast with coursemates.
Last Sunday, i went Eastin Hotel to have Japanese buffet dinner with my uncle and his family.
Last Monday, i went Sunway Yuen Restaurant to have steamboat buffet with all my 2nd year coursemates.
This week, i'm at home to enjoy all my favourite foods!
Wow, hopefully i can successfully gain more weight as i'm really skinny and ugly now :'(
Going back to UM on 8th of September as our dental fac convo is on the 9th. Bought presents and did banner for my graduate buddy :)
Have to prepare for my Pharmacology test on the 11th of Sept, 'though it's only a 20 MCQ test.
Have to finish reading my Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows! I've only read the first chapter :P Have been too busy lah...
