20080524 - Japan MEXT Scholarship 2009

Today is my Form 6 classmate's - Zhi Xiong's wedding. Where is the invitation card..... Aiks, broke again :( BY promised to fetch me up at around 7pm. On my way to his wedding, Celine told me that she had received the Japan MEXT Scholarship 2009 written examination notification. I didn't receive any letter wow...... Probably I'm not qualified...... (broken heart..... bleeding.....) The dinner ended at around 10.30 pm. Once reached home, without any delay - checked my "mail basket". What's this? It's letter from JIS (Japan Information Service Embassy of Japan) Huray!!! Let me called Celine and informed her about this good news. Why don't pick up the phone? Never mind let me sms her. That mean I have to start to brush up my English and Japanese before the examination which fall on 15 June at Confucian Private Secondary School. I came across Japan MEXT Scholarship by an ex-colleague who is now studying in Japan with MEXT Scholarship. He

'Di Di'...... SMS alert at this hour? 1:00am?? Who will it be??? Don't bother about it. Em... Probably some urgent matter. Ei, paint ball at Subang at 1:00 pm? 12 hours notice in advance... Since all my sis going to Melacca tomorrow and left me with my parents... Better just joined for fun. Meet at SJMC at 12:45pm. Deal! Already 12:45pm, where is that Zac, still didn't see him anywhere around SJMC. Better prepare my machine gun and "shoot" him when he appeared! He just showed up around 1:10pm. The paint ball field is located at TT Sports Park (besides Sheraton Hotel) which is the largest PaintBall Park in Malaysia. Ops... How come everyone wear long pant? That 'si cai' Zac, didn't told me about it :( Thought got the jump suit so didn't wear the long pant. Cham... After they have long negotiation with the marshal, they gave us offer at RM75 per pax (12 pax in total) for 2 boxes of pallets (4000 pallets in total). Forgotten to bring the camera

20080511 - Krabi

Today early morning we packed some of our stuff as we're going to Krabi for one night 'stay'. It was not a pleasant trip as the driver took us round and round. Waited here and there. Almost thought we're cheated. Finally we're there in Krabi. Then the staff there told us that there's only one trip back to Phuket tomorrow at 11:30am. Oh no. How are we going to send Celine back on time to catch her flight at Phuket International Airport. Bad planning. When we reached Krabi Town, rain drizzling again. We decided to take our lunch at one of the shop. My lunch with Thai spices. It's Thai culture that they provide spices to their customer and let them flavor their own foods according to their preferences. After our lunch, we took 'tud tud' to Ao Nang Beach (cost 40 baht per pax). Rain never leave us a minute. On the way to Ao Nang beach, raining again. Sigh...... The lady sat opposite me just visited Malaysia and gave comments regarding th

20080510 - Phi Phi & Khai Island

Today we did woke up earlier and prepare ourselves early in the lobby. We have packed our luggage since tonight we'll be going to be overnight at Sevenseas Hotel which located around 200 meters away from Patong Lodge. We just put our luggages at the lobby and the bell boy seems different from the previous one. More friendly although he didn't know English much. We have problem speaking to him. When the driver came to pick us up, he asked whether we want towel or not. We're a bit surprised. Towel? It's provided? How come we didn't know yesterday? Now only, we recalled that the participants of the cruise yesterday all took the hotel towels along. No more escoat boat. No more funny crew around the boat. Today we took speed boat to Phi Phi Island and Khai Island. The sky was clear when the speed boat started but then the wave was too rough. Then I started to heard vomit sounds. Suddenly the lady in front of me, vomit without any notice. Due to the strong

We woke up pretty early since the driver was going to pick us up at 8:00am. After having our breakfast, we went to the hotel lobby and found that the driver is already there waiting for us. Wow, they're very puncture. It's not Malaysian time. We have to wake up earlier tomorrow in order to avoid being late again. Around 10:00 am we depart from the pier by escort boat. Our tour guide was 'Moon'. He gave us some briefing regarding the tour. We'll cover 4 of the Island, James Bond Island, Hong Island, Panak Island and Lawa Island. We can have free flow of water and light drink except beers. The weather seems nice in the morning but we can saw dark cloud from time to time. The cruise took around 1.5 hours before we reached James Bond Island. At the beginning everyone was happily taking pictures around. While we're taking this pictures, suddenly a crew shown up without my notice and sat beside me. I was so surprised and turned to see who's he. Later

20080508 - Phuket

Early 6++am received a sms from AirAsia stated my flight will be delayed....... Not again...... How come this happened....... All my mood was gone :( Me & Jac waited at LCCT for around 2 hours before taking 1:45pm flight to Phuket. We reached Phuket at around 3pm. Once we're out from the air port there're so many people around asking whether we want taxi or not. Then found one mini-van just cost 150 baht per pax. Without hesitation we just pay and get up the mini-van. Once the mini-van is full, we're on our way to our hotel - Patong Lodge. Unfortunately, they stop at one of the tourist center, and the receptionist started to ask alot of our journey in Phuket. We didn't accept their tour package as I believe we can get better offer around Patong Beach. Once we reached the Patong Lodge (located between Kamala and Patong beach), what a disappointment. How come??? It's not opposite the beach...... The beach is further down the road and is full
