Is it a nice voice and nice guitar playing???



This is myself and Joshua, with Joshua the guitarist and I as the vocalist...this is a very nice song, originally composed by Sling Tan that I found on Youtube(see previous post).
About this video, it's our first attempt to record it, and that both of us learned this song for just a couple of days. In addition, this version is a bit lower in key than the original one because the guitar is purposely tuned lower because one of the guitar string is about to break. However, in the future, there will be another cover for this song as an improved version. Do stay tuned!
PS: There are a few mistakes in my singing, so just bear with me.

The Worst Accident Ever??

This is what happen when anyone did not follow the undang-undang:

How did it happen? you might wonder...that's why i'm here to tell you the story..
My elder sister took the Iswara (My beloved Iswara =( ] to Sg. Petani for work. On the first day she drove there (last saturday), two brainless drivers knocked into her. She just did nothing wrong. She stayed on her lane and out of a sudden, the car from her left tried to overtake her, but his/her estimation was incorrect, it eventually knocked the Iswara front and Ruth with all her might step on the brake to avoid the car. So, in the middle of Sg. Petani, she came down from her car and talk with the fella.

After 5-10 minutes, another car knocked into the Iswara back. BOOM it went. Now Ruth had to settle with two fellas who knocked her front and back. Pity her. She had to go to the Police station to report and that took hours....Anywayz, of course she's not in the wrong...she just do her own driving until these people came in.

The back is not that damaged.

When I heard about the accident on the Iswara, I'm like "OMG!!". How could this happen to this very car that I used to go to college everyday? I kinda had a bond with this car...it's ambience, it's feel when driving it, my "P" sticker, my little spongebob....

So, to everyone, please drive carefully on the road (especially this rainy season), stay alert and always check all of your mirrors (back and sides - 360 degree) before making any decisions...don't follow to near behind a car, don't just simply overtake a car without much consideration..all these little things must be taken into account seriously...This message is brought to you by Liagiba!

BJ Hill Hike

Ah! What a relaxing day today...class cancelled, so I decided to take a day break from going to college. Rachel also took a day break from school since there's nothing much to do in school after her final exam, we went to Bukit Jambul Hill as early as 8 am.

This hill is not as high as Penang Hill, so the trip wouldn't take more than an hour here, and most of the trip are steps and rocks..

It even has rubber tapper tree..I don't remember it exist previuosly..so, it's something new...
However, the rubber tapped were left in a bucket are dried and not collected..I wonder why...


At the midway, we came across a crossroad...The sign board is pointing on the right side stating "Follow this road to top of hill" when it is clearly visible that on the left are steps and on the right are just plain forest..it's contradicting, right?


But I think it's a different route to the top..but most of the time, I use the main route, which is the one with proper steps...


We're like ignoring the signboard and went the other way instead...hahaha...(if it's not funny, then I think I'm lame..wahhaha)


Then, nearing the top:
(nice or not this picture below?? hehe)

"A Light in the Dark"


At the top; such a beautiful sight to be seen. It actually took exactly 20 minutes to reach! In fact, while we were hiking, we stopped quite often, and as for me, I took pictures on the way up, and yet, it just took that amount of time. Fast huh. This hike is not that taxing lah, it's just like climbing up the stairs only.


This is the Penang Bridge view from here...sorry bout the picture, not very nice, moreover, there are too much tree canopy that block the view...aish..what to do, this hill is not very high after all...(cuz b4 this, I climbed the Penang hill twice that took me 3 to 4 hours to reach, so this one is like sap sap water).


Camwhore..."hey, I didn't bully her kay!"

At the top, they have gym equipment, but it's very old..

They also had exercise equipment, just like the ones in Youth Park...


Thirsty?


These water gallons were brought up by the the regular hikers who hike up this hill a few times a day everyday!


And as a result, other people who hiked up the hill get free drink..so if you wanna hike up this hill, you don't have to worry about drinking water..in fact, you don't really need water cuz hiking this hill is not very taxing...

So, here are the cups:


This hot water(below) is meant for rinsing the cups, so just grab a cup and dunk it in before and after you use the cup.


They have plain water, Longan, and ginger drink:


Firewoods:



After appreciating the beauty at the top of the hill, we make ourselves down the hill, but before that, some photo session!

Rachel posing by a tree:


Next to where Rachel post, we spot something...a troop of unending line of ants!


(click on picture to see it better!)


Here's a video of the life of the ants:



Steps down:


Click play and enjoy the sound of nature =) :



This is one of the regular hikers who brings up the water daily!


What a beautiful flower...


The BJ Hill had changed a lot. I haven't been coming here for quite some time. Since young (like around 6 years old) I had climbed the hill. Another occasion is when I'm in form 2 where it's a school activity. The students actually walked from the school to this hill to climb to the top...it was fun...
Today, there's a new construction area going on, a new banner(on the first pic), new toilet, new exercise equipment, etc. Those who are interested to come up this hill with me, by all means let me know! If not, I might just go up alone.
I'm looking forward to try all the routes that leads to the top of BJ Hill. Am also looking to hike at Kerachut and Youth Park (both never tried before), and also hike up to Penang Hill through Moon Gate and other routes.

I seriously fell sick yesterday..it started while I was in the canteen with Wendy and Winnie..all of the sudden I felt dizzy and my skin became sensitive to cold. That time was before Felicia's class, b4 2 pm..

In the class, we had some briefing about our final project (copywriting subject) and me and my partner, Diana did a tutorial for a radio PSA (Public Service Announcement). In the mean time, I went to Wendy's car to borrow from her a jacket cuz of my condition..hot and cold...but at that time, I haven't really fall sick yet..

Felicia's class ended at 4pm and coming up next, is Law class, from 4 to 7pm! Sigh..the sien-ness...In class, we were given a case study and we're supposed to finish it within 2 hours..however, the effort that we have to put in is alot..we have to write at least more that 4 pages! It's a lot of stuff to write...I wrote continuously till my hand and wrist got sored, and whatmore, is that the air-cond was so cold!! and it's difficult to write fast in such condition...Plus, I had a cold jelly drink which I got it from the canteen which added to the cold feeling..aiks! Even though I put on the jacket, I still felt so cold, from top to bottom..I was walking like a zombie and my face was pale....

As for my essay, I wrote 5 pages and a half, and yet, after my law lecturer go through what I wrote, he commented that I still need to elaborate more!! Not only me but also to some of my classmates...Ish ish...what more can I write about?? Sometimes I feel like I don't really know how to link the case study to my essay.....

After class, Wendy dropped me at my car (which I parked quite far from college). *Thank you, Wendy* I can't quite focus on the road, but I kept on reminding myself to stay alert on the road...besides, that time the road was busy and jam and with my condition of dizziness...when I finally reached home, I felt a great relief.

At home is when my fever got worst...I didn't ate anything..I don't have the appetite..so what I did was I drank a lot of water and went to bed straight without bathing. Soon after, I got up again to take a shower and popped in two tablets of panadol..I just took a quick bath cuz although my body temperature goes up, yet, I felt very cold...strange isin't it? but I think it's the symptom of a feverish person...then, I went to bed again, wrapping myself with my comforter, long pants and a jacket beside me, just in case if I needed it...leaving my laptop, online-ing, and projects aside.

In the middle of the night, like around 2 am, I woke up to go to the toilet, and vomited..since I didn't ate anything the night before, I didn't vomit much..but I felt better after that, then I went back to bed..

I just can't believe that these things can happen on my birthday...sigh...
I think that there are many possibilities that contributes to my illness...could it be that I ate too much meat lately? I had lamb and chicken from a BBQ party last Saturday..then I had Tandoori chicken right after the BBQ party and I had it again the day before (on Friday) after my photo shooting session(assignment) around Jetty Area QE II.


Anyways, despite all the feverish and dizziness feelings, I received Birthday wishes from sms, friendster, facebook, MSN, in my blog's chat box, phone calls and my sisters and uncle..thanks guys and girls..it really cheer up my gloomy day =)

Untitled

Aaarghh! Sien-ness!! I'm now at college's canteen sitting between Winnie (my left) and Wendy (my right). Basically, we're all on our laptop doing our own business. At first, I was so enthusiastic to continue my CSS project, but somehow, things doesn't go my way and I ended up like Wendy...gave up on CSS...truly it's a heartache doing it..especially on the positioning and designing part..Anywayz..I wanna show you all a picture that I took of my younger sis, Rachel, who was busy studying for her final exam form 4:

And I diligently edit the picture by enhancing the contrast, rub off the pimples, and add a little text on it:

Nice or not??? (click on picture for enlargement)

ps:forgot to mention...i'm havin fever!!Nooo!! I don't wanna fall sick on the eve of my birthday!!

What a day!

Yesterday went to a BBQ party..had ate quite a lot of food, and the best part is the lamb meat! Muneer and his friend actually bought a whole raw lamb, marinate it, and hang it over the fire and BBQ it. Though felt quite sien soon after, went out with Baby D & Teng Seang and had a road trip until the end of the world (in Penang). Had a very nice Tandoori set shared with Baby D at Ananda(opposite Paradise Sandy Beach Hotel).Then when I came home, I was surprised by a present on my table:




..and unwrapped it..


Thank you girls for the lovely presents!
