special holiday!

due to water shortage (actually there's not even a drop of it!) because of the repairing work of 3 burst main pipes which supply water to my college, KUKTEM and Gambang residential areas, we KMPh students and KUKTEM students were given special holidays...
last Wednesday, i was told that that'll be 4 days of water shortage in our college, that's from Thursday to Sunday. those who'd heard of this 'news' quickly filled up any container that they've with water! true enough, when i reached my hostel after 5pm, there's already no water on the third and second floors. all the residents, except the wardens who're living on the ground floor, had to use the wash rooms on the 1st floor. night turned worst as we'd to carry water with mineral water bottles or any containers we'd to the toilet and to wash up. imagine!
the next day (Thursday) turned worst as those who'd the habit of taking a shower in the morning had to get up as early as 4am to got to the multi-purpose building, where there's still some water in the water tanks, to shower! luckily, i don't have this habit because i just can't stand the chill early in the morning :P some boys even bathed in the lake beside their hostels! Urgh~ it's so disgusting!
at 9am, we're informed that we're allowed to go home without applying beforehand from Friday to Sunday due to the water shortage. however, i was informed that all the bus tickets to Johor on Friday had been sold out! at first, i thought of putting up in one of my collegemates place in Kuantan 'cause it's kinda rush to go home on Friday and come back to college on Sunday. then, a truck carrying water from JBA came, that meant the cafeterias will be operating since there's water available. dad called and asked me to stay in college if the cafes are operating 'cause it's not convenient to stay at friend's house.
however, at 1pm, we're informed again that we can leave the college after 5pm that day and return to college on next Tuesday! i immediately booked a bus ticket through a taxi driver and boarded the 11pm bus that very night. i reached home at 3am on Friday morning. huh~ it's so tiring...

i'll be going back to college tomorrow morning by bus, but i've not finished doing my assignments yet :P

i was sick on the previous week; i had flu, sorethroat and cough. thank God, i'm well now :)

watched the movie of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire with Yong May and Kim Na. those who've read the book will certainly notice that some important parts of the story weren't included in the movie. since i read this book in Form 4, i don't quite remember some of the detailed parts but i can tell that some parts're missing... it's quite disappointing as the director seemed to lift a little bit of every part of the story and those who'venot read the book might not fully understand the whole story... since the director of the 4th sequence isn't going to direct the 5th one, i hope that the new director will do a better job.

...hols...

hv been spending there past few days at home watching TV, visitting friends and spending time with family and relatives...
went to Yong May's family optical shop for an eye check-up and found out that my eye-sight hasn't deteriorated except for a 50 degrees increase in myopia in my right eye.. got a pair of new specs anyway... mum said i need another pair as a 'spare tyre', if u get what i mean ;P
visitted Pn Goh with Yunn Shin and Yong May on Tuesday... and that's the reason why we didn't attend the gathering at McD, Summit Parade...
went to Yin Tyan's house... Yong May and Kim Na were making puddings and spaghetti... and i met up with some other friends including Yin Tyan's boyfriend, Yong Jie, whom i wasn't introduced to, hmm... friends studying in TAR College were practising for a singing competititon which is going to be on Monday, that's tomorrow, for that matter. i left after having eaten the delicious spaghetti but had no time for the puddings 'cause they're still in the oven when i left... hmm... never having really cooked something myself, it's quite a surprise for me to find out that one actually has to baked puddings in an oven! or maybe it's one of a special type...
i left in my dad's new Toyota Innova which has a 'JJJ' on its number plate... hmm... my parents seemed to have a liking of purchasing new things in my absence... an Astro decoder, a study lamp, a new MPV...
all 4 of us in the family played badminton at Banang Golf Club that evening... and i found out that my stamina's getting from bad to worse nowadays that i was panting like hell just 10 minutes after the game started... but it's really hard not to feel tired playing with 2 skillful 'old players' *wink
on Saturday, we went to Kukup and bought some T-shirts there... the trip went intended to be to Tanjung Piai, the southest tip of the Asia continent, but the road leading to it looked too dangerous to be travelled on...

yesterday, my paternal granny cooked my favourite Hokkien Eng Chun noodle for me... it's delicious! after lunch, my family and my uncles' went to the showvillage in Evergreen Heights... the interior designs of all the 8 houses were very nice and sophisticated but some designs weren't that practical if one's to 'live' in that design...

just finished reading Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince this evening... i found this book lacking in something the previous 4 HP sequels have, which i don't know what it really is... it's so dull at the beginning, but not after half the book has been read... by the way, it's true in the papers; 'everyone seems to be snogging...'
it's so sad that Dumbledore's dead and was killed by a very 'dislikable' character in the story... but it's happy to know that Ron and Hermione eventually became a pair, but i did thought that Harry and Hermione would be a more compatible pair; one being courageos, and the other, intelligent ;)
the part in which Harry and Dumbledore were at the lake was the most eeriest part in the book 'cause i personally disgust corpse! and seeing Dumbledore suffering after drinking that potion in the basin was so touching and saddening...
and when Harry eventually asked for a split up with Ginny, i thought that he was very wise and selfless in doing so, for Voldemort'll most probably make use of her as a bait in future, as what Harry said... it's benevolent and noble to sacrifice one's love for the sake of the world, for Harry, the magical society especially, but not for the sake of one's personal pursue, which is very selfish... Harry's made a wise choice... but i think the seventh and last sequel'll be very different from all the previous ones as Harry's decided not to return to Hogwarts after Dumbledore's death, to search for Voldemort and kill him... he'll be very different yet more matured, i think, for he has a much heavier responsibility now, seeing that Dumbledore's no longer here to assist him anymore...
...good luck, Harry...

i'll be going back to college on Thursday after my additional SPM Chinese paper on Thursday morning... to my college mates, i've got permission from the HEP, in precise, En Amran himself... and don't forget to bring kuih-muih and your own baju kebangsaan for the jamuan on the 18th of November...

...home sweet home...

i've just finished my 1st semester of matriculation studies...
jz arrived home yesterday evening... my friend and i boarded the wrong ubs! we're supposed to take the 10.30am bus which was heading to Johor Bahru by the Segamat way, but another bus which was heading the same way arrived earlier... the bus driver told us that his bus has empty seats... thinking of getting home earlier, we boarded the bus without much hesitation...
after more than an hour on the bus, then only we realised that the bus was taking the Mersing way! we had no choice but to call my parents and ask them to pick us in Larkin, JB... my dear parents and sister arrived at the bus terminal in our new Toyota Innova before us! haha...
it's a lesson to us; not to board any other bus other than the one stated on the bus ticket...

the questions of our final exams were set by university proffessors... maths was quite difficult and those who really aspire to study medicine were really upset after the exam 'cause without 4.0 CGPA, it's very difficult for one to get a place in U to study medicine... since i'm after biotech or other science related courses except medicine, i'm not that worried...

MUET: i didn't have enough sleep the night before my speaking test... so i don't think i did my best... however, i think i did quite well for other papers... hope to get band 4 and above...

semester break: 29 Oct - 9 Nov
