I miss you guys...

I miss the times when we:

  • have meals together- regardless if it's at canteen or souled-out
  • camwhore in school
  • tried to plan a trip
  • were all in the same country
  • were all discussing about Malaysia's Most Beautiful
  • watched movies together
  • made high school fun and memorable
  • just by being in close proximity we felt love
  • spend New Year's Eve together
  • make fun of blur Yi Wayn
  • make fun of piggy Capri
  • make fun of *insert desired adjective* of En-li
  • make fun of Shannon for being Shannon
  • gambled
  • drink alcohol
  • stayed over at each other's house
  • watch Hitchiker's Guide through the Galaxy
  • diss our school- teachers, principals, toilets...
  • gather around in a circle in the morning
  • were.

Winter Holz 2007!!!!!!!

HEY GUYS!
I just got back from holidaysss.....damn depressed nowww..exam starts on the 10thh.....haven't study shit........

So as u guys know....i didn't go back to Msia this Winter....
-Went to Coventry (Warwick Uni) on the 7th
-Birmingham on the 10th
-London on the 18th....stayed with Oli in ISTEE'S place! (thanks loads Istee!..and wee rin)....shop shop shop......boxing day...should i love it or hate it?...i dont know...its so crowded i cant friggin move in any shops....its so crazy the escalators in river island (a shop) just stopped moving due to overweight....escalators getting overweight??...only happens on boxing day sales i guess......no mood to shop....too many people......but.....Armani shirt ...from 200 pounds to 39 pounds?...crazy shit.........

-29th......FLY TO TURIN!...now this is the part im gonna blog about.....from turin, italy...took a 2 hour bus ride to Serre Chevalier, France. Its basically a part of the french alps called serre chevalier....

Went there for a week long ski trip with my cousin and his friends....snow boarding to be exact.....Wasnt really keen at first after the countless amount of falls in mount buller...melbourne.....im sure sung, wy and sammy can relate......but trust me...this is NOTHING like buller.....Basically....everyone there is divided into groups ....im in the beginners group. Everyday, we will have lessons from 9 to 12...and 2 to 5.....it doesnt matter if you are a beginner..or expert....there will be lessons suited for each stage...and everyday we learn different stuff.....unlike mount buller.....we were given....i would say a 30 min lesson...and of we go to the slopes to die.......but this one we are guided from scratch...for 6 days.......

so as a beginner.....i learnt the basics..how to turn left and right...and all that...but the experts will go to snow park.....its basically like....a park....for skiers/boarders to do tricks......like jumping in the air and do tricks .......skiing on a horizontal bar...stuff like that...

the placed i stay in is called UCPA...its actually a youth hostel........like...YMCA?.......we sleep in "dorms"..they say its a dorm...but it feels nothing like a dorm......4 beds a room..everyone has their own bed.......and shared WC/Bathroom......the only diff part is we have to clean the room and toilet outselves....thats all...

ALL meals are provided.......and i expected shit food...for a youth hostel...but...gosh .....its NOTHING near SHITTY...might be better then some hotel buffets......french food.......from starters to desserts...everything damn niceee.........but we have to clean our own tables and all la.....

some pics



very .....vague post i know......

Im most likely going again for winter 08.....not the same place..but for winter sports....so.....whoever wanna come!!!!.....its not expensiveeee

for this trip right....
6 nights accomo
3 meals provided everyday (exellent meals)
lessons for 6 days
equipment rental for 6 days
flight from london to turin + Bus from turin to serre chevalier + Bus from serre che to turin + flight from turin to london

Trip to Mexico.. n other stuff =)

Instead of being with you back at homee... i was stuck heree.. and took up on a road trip to MEXICO!! it was insanely fun.. with no alcohol involved (for once) lol. the mexican border was only abt half n hour from my place.. but it was vast contrast between the cities only half an hour apart.. crazy huh. I went with my fellow malaysian fren, and his frens lol. never met before.. now dat's a real adventure.. well they turned out to be really awesome people so no harm done haha.

The road to the Fox Studio was along the coast and the scenery was BEAUTIFUL! overlooking the pacific ocean.



Along the way i saw this huge statue of Jesus.. hahaha super random!



Here we are.. Fox Studios Baja..


In case u guys cant see lol.. Titanic, 007 Tomorrow Never Dies n Pearl Harbor was filmed in this place.. But of all.. i only got a pretty complete tour on the set of Titanic.

A lil history.. this place was actually built for the filming of Titanic.. Then.. more n more ppl wanted to take a look inside and see whats goin on.. so they opened it up to the public.. =s haha


First thing I saw. the antique car. and Yes. The REAL car. lol the real one they used in the movie.. where they had sex.. hahaha.. the tour guide was lik...does anyone remember what happened in this car. LOL. everyone was lik... nodding nervously hahaha. AWKWARD. and the guide was lik...yesss.. the love scenee..ha-ha-ha -_-"


and the original ship wreck model.. which was used in the first scene


The room where Jack was locked up.. lol then the tour guide was lik explaining how 3 types of handcuffs were used during the movie and the axe that kate used to chop open the axe was also different.. one real n one rubber.. kinda make me think how phony movie making is... bluff ppl wan. LOL


This is one set of boiler.. Rmb this scene? where jack n rose were running past a longg row of boilers.. BULLSHIT. the room has only two sets.. the one in the picture and another set next to it. Basically they just run again n again from the start of the room until the end of the room.. which is lik 20m lol until they got that scene... this explanation left my jaw hanging. lol unbelievable.


Original materials.. displayed in the First class room.. cool yea


Also another original ship model.


There were some x-men stuff also.. the..gate thingy lol. Love this. Not sure if they actually filmed the movies here..


The wolverine costume in the glass box


Huge ass undies on the wall from 'Dude, Where's my car?" hahaha Just thought it was funny =p

After the Fox Studios Baja.. We went to a town called Rosarito.
They had lik...something lik a chi cheong gai full of mexican stuff.. every stall almost selling the same things lol.
Sam.. Thought u wud be interested in this =p


Pour milk out of it? =p hahaha!!! it's meant for soy sauce or wtv u want coming out of that nipple XD I swear Mexico is the most... crazy sexy country ever hahaha.. dont know about other countries tho =p


Viagra sales everywhere... this one was the most interesting ad hahaha. Happy meal - Mexican style =p There were all types of ads la.. got one that says "8mg.. 8 hours of pure pleasure" or a funny picture of a stick man.. with tongkat and an erected dick hahaha!
They have some crazy shit goin on.


Most disgusting lookin thing ive seen on sale. biggest shell too.


Next we were at this tourist attraction.... where they have the most beautiful scenery....anddd

Biggest WAVE ever.. just look. we're lik....i duno how high la. but its freakin high...it just shoots up... that's not the highest lol.
