Summer Break's coming to an end~
Had one of the best summer holidays with friends in Korea.
What's up for next summer?
Who knows, but most prob to the land of kangarooooos ^^
Not to forget
August 31st - motherland's independence day!
Happy Birthday Malaysia !!
Even though all those chaos and nonsense plaguing Malaysia and it's policy makers
still proud to be Malaysian with its overdue slogan Malaysia Boleh heh =/
Time changes, Malaysia needs some change as well. It's up to us future leaders, young aspiring flag bearers~ hold aloft ~ !
Also on a note,
After 2 years with my first ever 'love' in Korea ( the white samsung anycall, SCH-W270 )
I've changed for a much better one
latest Samsung's Galaxy S !!
still lots of surprises up the sleeves, yet to be discovered apps. Really really cool gadget, can even watch TV ( called dmb in korea ), transfer songs, movies easily by plugging to the computer!
Moreover,
come 27th August, my parents will be making their 2nd trip to Korea after our first Korean tour in 2007 winter.
Looking forward to spending some time with dad and mummy =)))
And
finally,
Get READY for the 2nd Semester!
Motto: Live like you've never lived before

Hot and Humid; Summer 2010
After a dreadful first semester of just practically studying and keeping the focus on getting the results by the end of the semester, looks like the effort might have paid off, but unexpected things happened.
The grading system is very demanding and tough on the students.
I took this silly inline-skating class and hola, I got a crazy B0 for it. That's just below satisfaction and nobody ever gets that silly grade for sports subjects. thanks to the teacher in-charge, made my life quite miserable when its the time to party and enjoy the early summer holidays. I had to write some paper about inline skating, and about my perceptions and some introspection about it. Thus delaying my holiday mood till mid June.
Well, 2 weeks has passed since summer holidays start.
But well, not so much of a holiday.
Having to take compulsory general subjects like econs.
Econs is interesting! A new kind of concept to understand but at the same time really applicable in one way or another. Market, supply and demand lol
That Korean professor, taught for quite some time in Chulalongkorn university but speaks perfectly 'South East Asian' English. I could understand every single word he said. Compared to Korean professors who graduate from US and come back with non-American slang, but Konglish.
darn, talking about the difference between fighting and 'phaiting' . this is what konglish sounds like. with the f syllable replaced with 'ph' consonant or ㅍ in korean.
Well, I'm glad the summer is here.
Planning to go to Shanghai Expo in August to visit the world's biggest expo on technology. But the problem is not getting there but about being there. Chinese. Yes, communication is a problem.
So i decided to 'recruit' some chinese-speaking friends to go. Bah. I would have loved to go on a solo trip. Good way to see and enjoy the world for yourself =)
Besides that, getting back to normal life I guess. Doing what I've been doing since like 5 years old. Badminton tournaments in a few weeks time. Got to hit the jackpot. 400k worth of prize money @.@.. i bet everyone's training hard for the tournament.
Also at the end of the month there's another inter-uni tournament but its at the southern part of Korea. freaking 5 hours of drive from seoul. Probably a roadtrip which will be cool.
And yes, i need to score for my econs. mid-summer term exam this week and final exam at the end of this month.
Finally, I guess my friend's all having a good time back at home too. Semester break.
Happy holidays guys!
There're so much things i wanna do in the break, but already having another dreadful semester in fall makes me wanna study beforehand...hence, not so much play for now, but study too =/ Darn, no stopping studying. blame who? just blame the tough schedule of being an engineering student in SNU. Blah
But i need to slow the pace and do some reminiscing? well, if u understand
그 사람도 만났다 unexpected things do happen #.@
Looking forward to more fruitful days , erh!
Be back with maybe perhaps some nice expedition or some journey log next time!
buhbye~

2010 Spring Sem: Sophomore Year!!
Spring semester of 2010 starts this week again.
Been a long winter holidays
Time to kick old bad habits and work harder than ever.
The best part of being a sophomore is that you're not old and not too young
either. And having juniors are great, no more forced drinks lol
Class goes on as normal, this time double the heat of last year.
Mostly major subjects which are really demanding.
solid mechanics, Quantum mechanics, physical chemistry, engineering maths, etc
Well, at the same time we STILL need to enjoy our student life.
Go for club activities, meet friends, old and new ones and make full use of our
always-insufficient time that we have everyday.
Anyway,
Happy 개강 to all my friends in Korea =)
개강 - reopening of class
Recent graduation ceremony of my senior friends in SNU
