Whistle For The Choir - Fratellis
This song is damn nice:)
Girls can be quite frightening creatures. Yes. To be honest, girls are the most insecure beings. I clearly understand why we are. (The male species are objectifying the body of the female species and our surrounding do have an impact to what we were (People, the media, the magazines) are telling us how we should and should not look like. Don’t mind me; I am not saying that the male species do not have confidence issues. Let’s just use the word ‘majority’ on this and I have no intention of offending anybody or whatsoever. The point I am trying to get here that it is perfectly alright to feel insecure but to use it as an excuse to put other girls down is not the way to be. Everybody needs to live. We all have our own issues and we certainly don’t need more to add on. Seriously, we do not need to resort to such tactic in making ourselves feel better. The irony here is that, one second they rant about how judgmental the world is and the next second they brag about how many people going after them and how hot they are. I mean, come on. How contradicting could that be? To make matter worst, I see people criticizing and bitching about people they know or random strangers they picked on according to how they look and dress. Honestly, what kind of thrill or pleasure do people get out of this?Girls should know how to treasure what they have instead of conforming to what the world wants. By doing this, you get respect. You don’t really need to go an extra mile to impress people. You will only get attention from those perverted bunch of people and they don’t exactly treat you seriously. You dress according to what you are, what you want to be, what you feel comfortable in, what style you belong to and not what other people wants you to. You act according to what you are, what you truly want to be and not what people want you to be.
I just came back from the busy city of Malaysia. Let’s just say that it appears to be one crazy trip. I went to one of Lapsap's event. I wouldn’t say that the music was great that night but it is not exaggeratingly that bad either. The thing about attending events is about having great companies and not about getting attention. I usually only club when there is a proper event, when I am going with people I’m familiar and probably when my friends celebrates their birthday there. On other occasion, I prefer to explore places, shop, hang out with friends and family, watch a nice movie or listen to nice songs. Clubbing is expensive and usually people go there to impress, to get some attention, to hook up with random strangers etc. I seems quite pointless to me. It is alright to go once in a while; you have fun with nice people around you and enjoy some good music. Honestly, me and my sister got to know some pretty nice people. One of them happens to be a senior from Monash. So there was Ian (The guy from Monash. I actually found him rather familiar like I have seen him in one of Meng Yoe’s or Eddie’s short films. Sure it was him alright. He acted in Idiot Nation lol), Rain (He doesn’t want to let us know what his name was and his Korean), and ‘Rashid’ (I don’t know if that is his real name-_-). It all started with having a transportation problem. Ian was kind enough to pick us up and send us back. While we had no idea that Meng Yen and Beverly went in to Phuture, we sat down and chill outside. Selina and the Korean dude certainly hit off well because they both studied at UK Haha Like I said before, it is the company and not the club that makes an outing fun. The train ride from Jb to KL and from KL to JB was a relaxing one. I know that most people prefer to take shorter rides than the train. Honestly, it is quite nice. I had my Nintendo DS (I’m currently addicted to the Simpsons game. Haha It’s quite challenging though) and my sister’s Ipod classic to accompany us throughout the whole journey. We stayed at our auntie’s place for one night because Ah mah and Ah kong were both there. It is certainly nice seeing my adorable cousin Li An again. He is such an angel.
My dad and mum organised this Smart money work shop last week. The game is indeed very interesting because it educates people on how to make smart decisions in the capitalist world. Robert Kiyosaki is the bomb here. I went with my sister. Philip came along as well lol. I hope you did have fun :)

I have settled everything for Australia. The Visa, the medical check-up, the plane tickets (Taking SIA this time round. I heard that SIA is one of the best airline around.)
and all the forms. Looks like I'm all set.
By the way, the Malaysian Badminton team did amazingly well in the Super series finals competition bagging 3 titles from Lee Chong Wei ( YAY! WORLD number 1), Koo Kien Keat & Tan Boon Heong, and Wong Pei Tty & Chin Eei Hui. So proud of them. I should be attending the Malaysian Super Series which will go on at KL at early January. :)
Alright, I am going to leave some pictures here. They consist of several outings and trips. Have a great week ahead everyone. Christmas is around the corner. I hope you all have a great one:)

I'm back blogging again after my trip to KL this week. I went with my family this time. It was absolutely fun having them bringing us to nice places around KL.Yes I have been traveling up and down from JB to KL almost every single week. I have good reasons for it. First, my sister is doing her CLP at Bricksfield and that she haven't found a place to stay. Second, we're just trying to visit grandma and grandpa as often as possible (Keep them company). Thirdly, err it's not really a valid reason but I love KL as much as I love JB. Forthly,honestly, I haven't shifted much of my belongings from the KL room due to the fact that I have too many stuff 0_0 Crap!!. The consequences of buying too much -_-
YEEhee! anyway we went to Bukit Bintang on the first night. Had food at Pavilion before walking around Bukit Bintang. They had this silent disco event, which is kind of stupid. -_- They were all listening to songs through earphones wth. It's funny looking at people dancing with earphones on. Bukit Bintang is beautiful at night. The streets are all lighted up and fully decorated. Whee! lol Hmm people who knew me well would have known my habit of hanging colorful rice lights on my room wall. Okay anyway, we went to the zoo the second day. Our natural surrounding gives out the best. It gives people some sort of carefree and peaceful feeling. Simply love exploring places during the holidays. Enough said, let the pictures elaborate more on what I have been up to recently. The pictures includes several outing and trips. Have a great week ahead everyone:)
First up: It's bowling time with the college mates!
Went to Yew's Cafe after that.
