Untouchable feat. Hwayobi - It's Okay MV (english subbed)

Took me away when I heard it on We Got Married series.
For the first time, I listened to Hwayobi sing on that show, she has a powerful voice. I'm now on the search for her songs.
Hwayobi and Hwanee such a touchable couple as they have empathy for one another. Saranghae this couple much! :)

lyrics

Ooh, Ahh, Baby
Ooh, Ahh, Lady
Ooh, Ahh, Baby
Ooh, Ahh, Lady

천일쯤을 만난 내 여자는 눈부시게 예쁘죠
아깝다는 생각에 연예인을 권했고
그녀는 성공했죠 큰 인기를 얻었죠

Baby baby baby baby 그녀는 Star
이제는 유명해
내가 주던 사랑보다 큰 사랑 받죠
왜 이리 왜 이리 왜 이리, 왜 이리 내 맘은 텅, Girl
비어버린 쓸모 없는 상자 같은지

효리: 어, 왜?
휘성: 너 지금 바뻐?
효리: 지금 좀 그런대..
휘성: 아 내가 할 말이있는대, 아니, 이따가…
호리: 어, 조금, 조금 있다 전화할개.

요즘 부쩍 짜증이 늘었죠 많이 힘든 가봐요
내가 뭔가 도움이 되어야만 할 텐데
난 할 수 있는 게 없죠 oh yeah
연락도 쉽지 않죠

Baby baby baby baby 그녀는 Star
이제는 유명해
내가 주던 사랑보다 큰 사랑 받죠
왜 이리, 왜 이리, 왜 이리, 왜 이리 내 눈은 콕
먼지에 찔린 것처럼 눈물이 날까

그저 그녀를 행복하게
해주길 바랬던 세상이
보이지 않는 높은 벽을 세워 우릴 갈라놨죠
(Yeah, can’t let you go, you are my star)
점점 나를 멀리하려 하는 그녀를
느낄 때마다 가슴 아파요

Oh, girl! Please come back my Star

Baby baby baby baby 이제는 Stop
나만 바라보던 예전의 참 사랑스런 그녀는 없죠
내일이 내일이 내일이 내일이 오기 전에
맘 속 슬픔 다 치우고 다 잊을래요

Baby baby baby baby 그녀는
숨가쁘게 바쁜 일상에
어느샌가 나의 생각 따윈 하지 않는다는 걸 느꼈죠
왜 이리 왜 이리 왜 이리 왜 이리 내 맘은
추억을 못 잊고
자꾸만 날 봐달란 들리지 않을 기도해

호리: 어, 나 지금 방송 들어가니까 빨이 말해.
휘성: 너, 아프로 잘될꺼야, 예쁘니까,
아프지 말고, 행복해. 안녕.
효리: 미안해

translation

Ooh, Ah, Baby
Ooh, Ah, Lady
Ooh, Ah, Baby
Ooh, Ah, Lady

The girl I’ve been seeing for about a thousand days is blindingly beautiful
Thinking she was wasted on only me, I urged her to try and become a celebrity
And she succeeded,
Earning huge popularity

Baby, baby, baby, baby you are a star
You are now famous
Now you receive so much more love than I could give you
Why is, why is, why is, why is my heart completely empty, girl?
It’s so much like an empty, useless box

Hyori: Yeah, what?
Wheesung: Are you busy now?
Hyori: Right now is a little…
Wheesung: See, there is something I have to say. Later…
Hyori: Hey, I’ll call you back later
Wheesung: (Sigh)

These days you’ve been crankier, you must be having a hard time
I feel like I have to do something to help
But there is nothing I can do, oh yeah
It’s hard to even talk to you

Baby, baby, baby, baby you are a star
You are now famous
Now you receive so much more love than I could give you
Why are, why are, why are, why are my eyes full, girl?
Like it is filled with dust, my tears continue to fall

The world that I hoped
Would make her happy
Has set a high invisible wall that keeps us apart
(Yeah, can’t let you go, you are my star)
More and more, I know she is pushing me away
Every time I feel it, my heart throbs

Oh girl! Please come back my star

Baby, baby, baby, baby now stop
The girl that used to look only at me, that loving girl no longer exists
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow, before tomorrow comes, woah.
I want to erase the sadness in my heart and forget it all

Baby, baby, baby, baby you,
In your busy workweek that barely leaves you time to breathe
I felt that you do not think of me even once
Why does my, why does my, why does my, why does my heart
Cling to the memories
And continue to silently pray that you will look at me again?

Hyori: I’m going into a broadcast right now, so talk fast.
Wheesung: You’re going to be successful, because you’re beautiful.
Take care of yourself and be happy. Bye.
Hyori: …Sorry

Chorus
I want nobody, nobody but you
I want nobody, nobody but you
I don’t want anyone else
I can’t have anyone but you
I want nobody nobody, nobody nobody

Why are you trying to push me away? I hate it.
You ignore what I am saying
Why are you trying to send me to other guys?
Why are you doing this?

Saying that this is for my own good
Saying that you are just not enough
Stop it right now, you know me well enough
Why are you forcing what you know I don’t want?

Chorus x2

I’m satisfied, I’m happy
If I have you I don’t want for anything else
Who do you want me to meet and be happy with?
I can’t be happy away from your side

Saying that this is for my own good
Saying that you are just not enough
Why can’t you understand that it makes no sense?
How can I be happy without you?

Chorus x2

I don’t want nobody, body body
I don’t want nobody, body body
Really, if it is not you
I hate it!

Chorus x2

Back to the days
When we were so young
And wild and free
Everything was just like a dream
I want to go back to those times
Why do you keep on pushing me away?
Why do you push me away?
I don’t want nobody, nobody
Nobody nobody but you

Choi Jung-chul 최정철

Rating:	★★★★★
Category:	Other

Real name : Choi Jung-chul 최정철 , known mostly as Jung Chul(정철).
Date of birth : March 2nd, 1984
Physique : 175cm, 65kg
Blood type : A
Hobbies : Snow-boarding, water sports, sending text messages on cell phones
Favorite color : White
Education : Dept. of Digital Mass Media, Kyunggi University

BIOGRAPHY

At the age of 19, Jung Chul made his debut in the local pop music scene in 2003 with a song entitled ‘Now & Forever’. Unlike his young and smart appearance, his music bears heavy volume with his grave tone. Rarely as a newcomer, Jung Chul all the recording works for his debut album were done at the Studio Valley in LA, the U.S.
Jung Chul’s music can be categorized in pop R&B. In calm and strongly appealing voice, Jung Chul sang about love, friendship and good-byes in his album. Jung made himself more well-known among pop music fans by participating in the O.S.T. of the television drama ‘Sangdoo, Let’s Go To School’ starring Bi. The songs ‘My Love’ sung by Jung Chul featured in the television drama gained good response from viewers and listeners. In March 2005, Jung released his second official album entitled ‘Listen’. This time, Jung Chul presented himself in a simpler and drier voice than in his debut album in which he added more techniques. Separating himself from soul music, the major trend of local pop music, Jung Chul focused on a masculine and rough way of singing strictly avoiding decorative elements in voice like vibrations.
Jung Chul is known as the son of Nami, one of the top female Korean singers in the late 1980s and ’90s.

--> Slow ballad singer. I feel that he sounds like Se7en when he sings 사랑은 왜 해 (Sarangeun wae hae). Maybe because they have the same surname that they tend to sound alike xD

I've posted a video of "If I could". I say he's really good and there's even and English version of this song. So far, not disappointed at all listening to his songs. He got the voice. I guess he's my next Se7en love!

늦잠을자던날 때리면서 깨우던 아침밥먹으라고
you were smacking me to wake up and have breakfast when I was oversleeping
다타버린밥주던 ~ 빨리씻으라며 발수건을 던지던
even giving me burnt rice. And you hurried me up with a dirty towl to clean myself
너였엇지 ~ 약속에늦어도 ~ 도리어 화를를내며
it was all you. Even when you were late, you yelled at me.
밥사라고 요즘 자기쫒아다니는 사람 많다고 ~
I should treat you out because there are so many guys hitting on you.
날만나주는걸 행복해하라고 말했엇지 ~
I should be grateful of you hanging out with me.
그래도 너의 ~ 속삭이던 입술에 다신 입맞추지못해요 ~
But I can no longer kiss you on your beautiful lips
나를보던 눈빛이 아직기억에 선명한데 ~ 오 ~
I can still remember your gaze...oh..

I wanted to see snowing every winter with you
배낭하나매고 유럽 여행도 가고~
Traveling Europe with only one backpack
멋진차를 차고 몇날 몇이고 떠나보고 싶었어~
wanted to drive out days in an awesome car
또 친구들한테 널 소개하고~부모님한테 인사 시키고
and also introduce you to my friends and parents...마치 영화처럼 결혼해줘 말하려했는데 ~
and propose just like movies did.....
그대와 내약속이 ~ 이제 사라지고 잇네요 ~
the promise I made for you...it is all fading out
다른 사람만나면 나같은 사람 잊어가요 ~
forget all about me when you meet someone kinder than me.

Don't cry promise me just one thing
못난 내사랑에 아프지마요 ~ 나를잊어요 ~
don't you hurt yourself from ugly love I've given you..forget about me..
즐거웠던 추억 행복했던기억 이제는 지나버린기억으로
beautiful memories...happy memories...they have all passed away
남아 만지지도 못해 느끼지도못해 그대없는나는 너무 괴로운데 ~
can't even touch nor feel...I feel so painful without you

Mid-Break- Semester 2 Break 2008

Hey all, how's the weather at your place? Anyway Melbourne's getting sun shines and hotter this week with full blasts of winds. I sound like a weather forecaster. Haha. Anyway Ramadhan is almost coming to an end. Four more days and soon it'll be Raya (Aidilfitri). Another year celebrating alone and not only Ramadhan is ending soon and so is my Semester break.

I only have it for a week since 20th September and be going back to school on 30th and I'll be doing my macroeconomic presentation on that day. Speaking of which, my C-dude is actually in the same class with me. How come I didn't mentioned it on the previous post? Because he didn't even come on the first week of lecture. So things has been funny and disappointing for me when he's around. I'll soon talk about that later on.

Today, I managed to finish my HR group work but it's just part of the assignment and hence there'll be a few more parts to be done which I must say I'm proud of my group members that we are finishing each part per week.There's 11 parts altogether and we got 3 parts to go. My other assignments I have managed to finish them in one day. I'm quite happy that I'm not heavily procrastinating but doing work when I feel like it and finishing them in one straight go.

I'm left with my individual assignment now and waiting to compile my International business group assignment which hopefully by next week the others has done their part and on with our presentation preparation. Before the semester break, I had a mid-semester test for International business which I found myself worth the effort of making notes and preparation earlier. Seriously, I've been a slacker through out the past but now made myself clear how committed I should be.

The only thing that still holding back is getting myself to READ. READING is AL's bestfriend. Well, I did try to read some of my textbook but it's hard for to absorb actual fact as I'm not used to reading. I'm just bad at it xD

Alrights, about my C-dude. Well, I now know his name since our names are being called out for register rolls in tutorial. Funny, how I see him unexpectedly. The first day in tutes, he was sitting the row that beside me then he changed and sat at the same table as me on a seat inbetween us.

He knows how to play mean. He makes it so obvious that he knows. Thank god his friend sat in that empty seat. Funny thing after class he was just standing there packing his stuff, waiting for a chance? xD

Another encounter was when we were doing our workshop in week 4. All of the sudden he came standing beside my desk and asked if he could borrow my rubber. Haiii!! Siok sudah ia approach tapi lain di minta nya. But out of curiousity....why me? could have asked other people.

Every week he would sit behind me until week 5 where I decided to sit at front row. During week 5 while waiting outside, C-dude was standing just right at the centre eyes on me but I dare not to make any movements.. as in turning to him. I don't know why that he's giving positive reaction and I'm repelling to it.

Why? Coz I thought to not have any reactions from him and that a crush is a silent thing between myself. If Allah fated us to be...AMIN alhamdulillah. xD if not, then I've pray that this misleading act to stop but seems not :X

I think that's enough from me. Playing GuildWars eversince break started. Come on this girl need her reward after doing her assignments. hehe! Balance life ayght!

Hope everyone making time before ramadhan ends! And happy advance Hari Raya Aidilfitri just incase I'm unable to post :)

Back in Melbourne for 2nd Semester 2nd Year

PEEEEEEEEEEEEKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!Hey yo! before I go any further, Sur's wedding is posted up on my facebook a/c but I'll soon post some here. So I hope the newly-wed are happy as they are :D As they did send me off after they returned from their honeymoon the night before.Wish both of you a life-time of happiness!

So basically the rest of the week I went over to Sur's wedding function, my malay interview scholarship on wednesday where Yuyul flew back to UK to send her thesis :P

I'm so not settled down in Melbourne as my room IS STILL in a mess. I don't know if I can clean and do my laundry with in this week which I SHOULD! Worst, its still cold and windy here.

First week in the semester and I still have my friends from last semester talking to me. It feels great to still have people around as Neeza said I was so popular on Monday. Not only that, I saw c-dude! Hooray hooray!

I just got back from International Business tutorial and made a group already for presentation and report. I'm with Peter (Denmark) and Edison (China). Too bad its not Edison chen xD. Was soo surprised that Edison looked like Neeza's #10 which I was like uh-oh but that wasnt him. My god! They tend to look alike.

For my macroeconomics lecture, being a loner at first xD too lazy to mingle just yet. Last night had an awesome time chatting with Kilz as I was in tears of joy to see her online for a VERY long time. Miss you babe!!

Anyway I'm cutting this blog short as I'm so tired and prepare my meal.

Weeks of Excitements

For the past few weeks after I landed back from KL, I spent a lot of time with my friends and family. I even started using my roller skates to chill. Sadly, haven’t explore where I could roll with it except at a shopping complex with multi-storey parking. That would be a good place to roll down! Anyway,Wednesday 15th July is where the people of Brunei celebrates their monarchy’s birthday, HM Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah is 62 years old this year. I have missed his celebration last year and now I’ve came to embrace it. I went out with Wafi on the following Friday to the stalls on the hunt for sotong tutuk (Hammered Squid) and toy handcuff. Handcuff? That’s a story for the future. *Winxs*

This year, there weren’t that many stalls and I kept bumping into relatives. All assume that Wafi is my boyfriend which I kept assuring them he’s only my friend. This is what relatives always assume everytime they see a friend of the opposite sex. The purpose of this is so that they can tease you. So I have to always lay out the facts correctly. Hahaha!

I managed to get my sotong tutuk and fruits. Wafi was hungry so we went off to Batu Bersurat to eat satay for dinner but before we went there we looked at the cucul (decorated light ornaments) around bandar and at the Istana (palace). Just by looking at all the decorations and feeling the festive vibe, I felt like I was back in my youth enjoying it though the weather was a light drizzle.

After dinner, took a tour to Giant. MY FIRST TIME EVER! Well, only from the outside. Then we went out of rimba and headed back home. Wafi thanks for giving me a tour around my home country *LOL*.

The following day I went out with Dina to have my hairwash and Dina wanted to try out a facial voucher. So we venture through Gadong and went all the way to the back of the building. I got my hair wash and cut then decided to go for a massage which I find it unsatisfying as I’m still feeling achy. Leaving the salon, we went upstairs to check Dina’s facial shop.

It didn’t take us that long to stay as the voucher was only to use if Dina use their product and services at a certain amount. Talk about unexpected disappointment. So, we went for lunch at Misato because I was craving for sushi. I even insisted her to watch The Dark Knight with me. Overall, we loved the movie! I couldn’t stop covering my mouth when Joker puts a knife in his victim’s mouth every time he goes “Do you want to know how I got these scars?”- Sorry for the spoiler.

After the movie head on to Rody’s office. Then Rody insisted that we go shopping for the cocktail pudding ingredients at Hua Ho. When we were done with the shopping, it down poured and windy for us to walk back to Rody’s office and had to wait for the rain to stop which was like never. Our first plan was to have Rody’s workmate to pick us up but we end up scampering back in the rain with the help of Dina’s umbrella and Rody covered his head with his bag.

Soon as we arrived back, I told Rody, that Dina and I decided to dine in at Singapore Chicken rice for dinner which was just a two doors next to Rody’s office. Rody join us for dinner and it was such a giggle for us because Dina kept on whining that she was hungry but Rody was the first one to finish his chicken rice. Shows that he was hungrier than Dina. After dinner, sat for a few minutes at Rody’s office and surfed the internet as always my internet connection sucks big time! Soon, I sent Dina back to her crib and off I went back home to Tutong.

Sunday, the last day of the week went outside my crib rollerblading with my new skates! Had the cats following me and someone accompanied for 5 minutes. Haha. Dymn got beaten by rubber Adidas shoes *LoL* Soon, had sweats coming out and I decided to stop rolling and played with my cats on the swing. Haha. The cats acted weird as if an earthquake had hit as I push them on the swing.

The Following week 21^st July.

Monday was always a blue day but had the ball rolling for preparing my Malay Interview for the Scholarship. I didn’t do much but was able to get a lot knowledge with the help of family and friends. Thanks everyone for helping out! Knowledge is essential! Always remember that.

That night, went to Excapade to have dinner with Rody. He treated! Thanks buddy! The road to Qlap was awfully jammed because of the festive celebration going on at Bandar (City). We both had bentos for dinner but Rody had beef and I had chicken. I ordered the enoki butter and salmon sashimi for add ons. We talked about local fruits (because its the season now in Brunei), Rahimah’s admission to UBD (University of Brunei Darussalam), my trip to KL and other stuff which we paused when we heard the fireworks being played outside at 8.30pm.

When I was done with my bento, we ended dinner and head back to our cars and it started to drizzle. Took his tray for the cocktail and off I went to avoid the jam which was still there! Gosh, from the time that I arrived around 7.30pmish to 9pm. Well, even before I arrived there, the jam was already there! As soon as I return, I started on Rody’s cocktail pudding and went to bed after putting it into the freezer.

Tuesday. Went out on a lunch date with my bestfriends; Yulz, Masz and Ekin. It’s been years since I’ve met Ekin. She’s happily married and she still the Ekin we love back in highschool. We had lunch at Ideal at Gadong Properties. We were LoLing non-stop, one story to the other. Masz was over-LoLing because she was laughing with her head on the table *LOL*

Got on Yulz’s car and went off to Le’Apple to book a cake under Masz and then sent Ekin back to work. Soon I was drop off to my car and I headed to Tutong town to buy some cocktail ingredients at Hua Ho with a companion. Haha. I’m sooo putting this person in the unknown position. Return home and took an afternoon nap. Later that night after dinner, I started to make three batches of cocktail pudding for my aunts and my family.

Wednesday was the day my little sis, Rahimah came back from Bangkok. I had to wait for 30 minutes for her plane to land but there were a small commotion earlier on where this Dr.Sheikh a famous Malaysian Astronaut and doctor and I don’t know what else his specialties are which I heard from my best friends who seriously adores him. So for my readers you can read his biodata here.

I was like “who the heck is that dude? Never seen him before” and ignored the commotion while I was dreading to wait for my sister to land. Finally the announcement of my sister’s flight made me ease a litte unfortunately, it took my sister a litte while to exit. Must be that she sat at the back of the plane, or her bags came a little late at the belt. However, I was glad that she arrived safely.

We then went over to Rody’s office for a while just to send his cocktail pudding *finally* and he seems happy to see it and waiting to dive into it. Haha. We left to head back home and Rahimah wanted to make her uniform that very night. Saf was around and wanted to join us. We made a pitstop to my Angah and Uwa’s house. I gave them the cocktail pudding and my treats from Melbourne for them. We had a long conversation with Angah.

It was getting a bit late to go to our tailor. When we arrived at my tailor, they were open for the whole night because they have a lot of clothes to tailor for the upcoming festive season- Hari Raya. Thankfully, they were kind enough to make my sister’s uniform. I saw my clothes already done for my bestfriend’s, Sur, wedding.

Alas, I finally get my rest! Hence, hoped that Thursday I could sleep in! Which I did! Ahaha! So I’ll continue my next post with Friday regarding Sur’s nikah (wedding). Hopefully this will keep u for the next post.

P.S I miss posting pictures on my blog...so I tried one with this awful connection and zilch, connection error. Sigh! Pictures will be available once I return to Melbourne.

A week in KL

Kuala Lumpur. Arrived on 7^th July 2008, ALONE! This was because my best friend MaseZ had to attend a briefing which was compulsory and hence she joined my nephew’s flight which was the next day. KLIA wasn’t that tough to go through but I was confused with the Aerotrain. Took the Airport Taxi to go to my hotel; Pearl International Hotel at Klang Lama. I spoke a few conversations with the driver and he was astonished that I came to KL alone as this is the city that is known to NEVER COME ALONE!

Well, to me, you have to be brave and know where to be at. Don’t expect me to go to dark places and visit some pimp houses. Not only that, I have my Malaysian friends who I can call for help; Ben, Jason and Ivan. They are the ones who play with me online- Guild Wars. It’s good to have friends all over the place which tends to be the reason to fly overseas and visit them (and other secret intention *winxs*). *LOL*

On the way to my hotel, I kept texting with Ben as he informed me that he is already waiting for me at Pearl International Hotel. I was excited to meet them and heck, I didn’t even have negative feelings about it (as in being cautious in meeting strangers). As soon as I reached my hotel, I had to pay deposit of my room and Ben was so eager to see me that he came to the reception WITH JASON!!! I thought it was just Ben but Jason was there also as I recognised him from our webcam conversation.

So, settled my payment and went up to the room where they tagged along. Ben insisted to show me around the place and we headed off to MidValley. A shopping Mall that was too big for me to digest! I got confused of going from one end to the other. All I remember is the top floor which had sports items and Cinema. I also had the chance to send Jason over to his Grandma’s house as he had tuition there. Sadly, Jason was scolded by his mum for not being on time at his Grandma’s. Hence my chances of seeing Jason were a rare chance.

Returned back to hotel and watched some television. I called in for Masez and texted Muntui. I was so bored at the hotel, I thought to go out at that night and meet up. Funny how people asked me not to go out at night alone in KL, which I kind of break the rules. So we won’t go into details of where I mysterious went that night. *LOL*

Next day, woke up early and found out that the rain had just stop. I called Masez to see if she’s at the airport (in Brunei) ready to leave which she was STILL at home at 9am. When she reached to KL, she was blurred and lost until she met up with me at the Hotel. She told me she was like feeling unease starting from Brunei till the hotel.

I guess it’s the feeling of being alone (when she’s not as she had Muntui to accompany her) mentally. So, I decided to take her shopping for her first day in KL at KLCC as I had to meet up with Ivan for dinner. Everything was going fine and as we soon meet with Ivan, Masez was finally at ease! Even Muntui had notice Masez’s expression throughout his journey sending her to me because he sent me a message if she was alright which I assured him she’s fine and I’m letting her shop.

Back in Brunei, I told Masez that I’ll be having a different image in KL which I dress up in shorts and t-shirt when I waited for her at the entrance of the hotel. She wasn’t even surprised instead Muntui was! Fine, that didn’t work but the following day, I decided to put on my skirt, again she wasn’t even amazed and yes Muntui was surprised again when we coincidentally bump into him at Jalan Tungku Abdul Rahman where I thought he would be in class and the chances of bumping into him was ZILCH!*LOL*

I had fun in KL that I managed to see Ben and Jason’s cribs as well as Jason’s school. It all happened on a nice sunny Friday. Ben came to take us to Skateline for me to get my K2 Skate Athena and we got to meet a few of Ben’s work colleague but the one that entertained me the most was Nixon. We drool for his good customer service. Right Masez? *winxs*

I was eager to see Jason’s school that Ben agreed to help me out. So I dumped my skates at Ben’s house and we walked to Jason’s school. We waited for more than 30 minutes for Jason to come out. It was like us being a paparazzi waiting to snapshoot a superstar. You wish Jason! Coincidently, Jason’s dad was also there waiting.

When Jason came out he was surprised to see us there and he was so polite to offer us a ride to Parkson. We hitch a ride there and I couldn’t believe it that my chances of seeing Jason again were possible! Not only that, Muntui had his chance of seeing Jason (this is between Muntui@Nephew and I@Aunty joke) *LOL*. We dined there for late lunch which you can take a look at the video section when I’m able to post it up SOON, if not wait till I’m back in Melbourne.

After that, Jason had to return and I kept on insisting to go to his crib which we had to use a different taxi after we had to get Masez’s glasses and a short rest in the room. When we arrived Jason’s crib, I was like “OOOOO” as it was a calm place to live in and we entered his room. The sense of trying to ‘lepak’.

We didn’t hang out there for long as Ben kept on wanting to eat at this Mamak place nearby Jason’s area. I ordered ABC special which Masez had the same thing. We hang out till it was already dark and thank god we found a taxi around Jason’s area as it was very hard to get one. After that we headed off to MidValley to catch Hellboy 2 but the tickets were sold out and so decided to watch Wars of the Dragon.

Wars of the Dragon had a good storyline but they need to polish the scene up. I gave it 6.5 out of 10. After the movie we all headed separate ways as the next day we were going to head off to Genting Highland.

Saturday. Woke up early but still feeling tired, got ready and waited for Ben to pick us up. We then went to KL Sentral to use the bus which we changed to using the LRT. We actually wanted to use a taxi but the guy cancelled on us and Ivan jinxed us to use the public transport. It was Ben, Ivan, Masez, Muntui and I on this trip.

The hilarious moments was when we found out that Ivan is afraid of heights and kept on screaming when he looked down at the cable car. Another incident was when we were playing snowball fights, I slip and did a half split while throwing to Ben. Sadly, I didn’t really play much on the ride as the fog and rain came in to ruin my day except I was cheered up by someone playing peekaboo with me that day *LOL* thanks!

The ride back home was using the bus and it was fun to like talk in the bus but Masez was about to hurl as the bus ride wasn’t comfortable for her. I saw a few places that looked interesting to tour especially the carnival and the Batu Caves area. Ivan kept on saying ‘Puchong’ as he found out what it meant in Brunei Malay when we were in Puchong area. We all laughed.

That was a fun moment and I hope to see them again anytime soon but for now I have to prepare myself for next semester. Ivan joined to sleep with us at our hotel as he was having fun to be with us. I had to excuse myself to make a phone call and going down at the hotel. After that I went up to join them and we had much to say especially regarding C-dude.

KL has been a great experience for me except I just don’t like some Malaysian attitude when it comes to customer service and when they become racist to the extend they disapprove of us hanging with Chinese. So, the only reason that I will go back to KL is because of them! Shopping in KL is not my jell-o.

Quotes that I’ll always remember:

“Dah masuk ke belum?”

“Sabar aje le”

“Yang pakcik-pakcik dan makcik-makcik yang dah nak masuk kubur tu”

“Typical Malaysians”

“Malas nak layan budak ni”

“Puchong”-> Ivan’s all time favourite *LOL*

For pictures, I’ll post it up once I’m back in Melbourne.

Holiday in Bangkok with Family

Bangkok. You may have seen the pictures I’ve posted while I was in Bangkok with my cousins and their family. I left for Bangkok on the 13^th June (sadly arrived 14^th June) and on Sunday, my sister and my cousin arrived, followed on Monday, my older brother and my other cousin arrived. So practically, it was a full house by that Monday! My parent’s apartment consists of 3 bedrooms including a Master bedroom. So each family had each room, hence I (and my siblings) had to sleep at my parent’s room.

My cousin, who came with my sister, took us out every day! She and her husband are very active to go out. She’s humorous and loves bowling that she wanted to buy a bowling ball but then it was cancelled because the saleslady offered her a good price but once my cousin wanted to collect her ball, they charge additional cost. Bad business!

Almost every day going out with them, we ate at KFC and sometimes Swenson. The only place we went to eat proper meal was at home. My parent’s apartment had never been noisier until they came. I was overwhelmed that there were children to make the apartment cheery as my mum always stayed indoors most of the time when my dad is out for work or golf.

At Bangkok, we went shopping at MBK, Platinum, Sampeng, Sport’s building, street stalls and Sunday Market. I also accompanied to the Zoo (Safari World) and Dream World which was a fun trip for me as I like to go sight-seeing and theme parks! Dream World was the best for me to have fun in Bangkok. We even had time to go bowling.

If you want to find the cheapest prices or wholesale deal that would have to be at Sampeng but it’s a bit crowded and you’d have to be there early as it closes by 4pm-6pm depending on your luck. I bought brooches there and there are even accessories that you could get it cheaper than the ones in Platinum.

Unfortunately, after munching on fruits in Bangkok, I caught a sore throat and had to stay in for a day. Heck, never like that feeling of itchy and aching vibe in the throat. Actually, my sister caught it first, and then my brother and I had it on the same day. I had to go buy Redoxin when I felt the incoming pain.

I stayed in Bangkok till 25^th June as my cousins were returning on that date. I was supposed to return to Brunei on the 22^nd June but I felt pity for my dad to send me off early and then send my cousins off three days later. So, I agreed to return on the same day as they were returning.

I thought I would dread Bangkok alone but thank god my siblings and my cousins came along to spend the holiday at my parent. If not, I would have stayed indoors and wait for the weekend when my dad has his off days.

For more Bangkok pictures please visit my cousin’s hubby’s site

Bangkok POSTED!

Blogging back for you :D

Well, so we meet again after one long hiatus from me. Was I lazy to post? No I wasn’t. I knew I didn’t have the time to post until I knew I would find myself posting again and the fact that I was trying to recover my lost of Danny. So, I will be posting of my first semester this year and my holidays spent in Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur. Now, I’m back home in Brunei and its HM Sultan’s birthday (15^th July 2008). The weather at this point is critically wet (raining)!

How first semester has been like to me? Well, I must say it’s a bit laid back and I love the subjects I’ve done but I did struggle on Organisation Design and Technology but overall I got a distinction for that subject and got a pass for Contemporary in HRM which for me I thought it was easier. I’m thankful that my result came out well and I passed all four subjects. 3 distinctions and 1 pass. Not bad!

Throughout my studies, I was bonding with a lecturer who used to work in Malaysia. He’s very helpful and thoughtful. I would miss him dearly if he left Swinburne although I may at times tend to be speechless through some of our conversation. I would like to thank him, Dr. Harch Thandi, for all his guidance and faith in me. He’s the first lecturer to make me feel at ease in Uni. Dr. Harch taught me Strategic HRM. If anyone who will be his student I will guarantee you that he’s the best lecturer to teach you!

Then there’s Bryan Kidd. He’s such a funny lecturer and understanding. In his class, it was more of psychology kind of study because the subject is called Organisational Behaviour. I also struggled on understanding some of the theories but I managed once I did the assignment. He gave us many examples which made me understood the situation. Not only that, I made quite a couple of friends in this class since we were a small class and did a group work together.

John Annakiss. He keeps pulling my strings by saying how I could get away because my country is rich of oil and gas. John, you’re one hilarious lecturer but mumbles a lot. He’s taught me Organisation Design and Technology. This subject might get you thinking that it has to do with design and technology (in other words something to do with computers) but in actual fact it’s all about how to manage the organisation chart when external and internal factors are affecting the organisation.

Lastly, Viknesh. He’s a Singaporean born but PR in Australia. His class is really laid back and as if we were in the 5^th grade doing our work. Seriously, felt like a kid back there but still had fun. Too bad I didn’t participate much in his class and well, most of my class. *LoL*

Throughout the weeks, working with groups has been up and downs. The worst experience was working with someone who always does their work last minute but they are actually smart people. Procrastinating is fine with me as long as they don’t procrastinate till submission! I was so annoyed about that especially when I’m the one to compile the work.

Anyhow, love life on campus? Well, I’m not sure if I did mention in my previous post regarding a guy “c-dude” that I bumped everyday (as in lecture classes) in my 2^nd semester of 2007. This semester, I didn’t bump into him till the final week of class! Everything happened at the library AND NO! I didn’t go to the library because of him but I had to finish up my assignment by getting references.

So, there I was talking on my cell phone with my dad outside the library entrance, and BOOM! He came out with his friend. He took one glimpse of me and then took a longer one when he noticed it was me. I’m not exaggerating. Seriously, not at all. The reason why I went to the library that day was to meet up with Nee and Huile for Huile’s radio interview assignment.

As we went down the library steps to go to Huile’s building for recording, coincidently, C-dude and his friends were at the bottom of the steps talking but paused when they saw us coming down the steps. This made me freaked out that I watched every step so that I don’t trip over and fall. Oh gosh! They make it so obvious when they look at people. Another weird vibe was #10 (known as C-dude’s best friend or probably close friend), who has some sort of thing for Nee (don’t worry Nee doesn’t even have any affectionate feeling for this poor dude).*ROFL*

Today I got off the phone with Nee and she told me that she saw them last week at the Atrium sitting. When they saw her, they kept quiet and look at Nee as she went in the Library. How freaky is that? I mean so obvious that there’s something going on with their bunch. Anyway, enough about that. I don’t really expect to have c-dude to be mine but it’s fun to have the motivation for expecting something to happen in University. Just to lighten up the stressness *LOL*

Speaking of which; the happy minds lies in the secret lives. Meaning to say; when there’s that specific someone for me, let my happiness shine to myself. Sorry for being greedy but that’s how I live my life. *LOL* Peekaboo!!

So that’s done about life at Swinburne University and waiting for next semester to reopen which is on 10^th August 2008. I’ll be returning to Hawthorn on the 8^th August 2008. I checked up on my Allocation+ site and this time I can’t cram it up for two days but to 3 days unless the actual timetable will give a good time for my subjects to be laid out. My next semester will consist of two exams. I keep having a feeling that I’ll dread semester two compared to semester one. Oh well! May I continue to be hard working and gain another good result.

ATTRIBUTE TO DANIEL LIEW BOON HWA 1983-2008

Daniel Liew Boon Hwa 5^th January 1983- 8^th March 2008

“Hey! I know that we’ve gone through this many times but what’s your name again?” Danny would always ask me every time we chat with each other whenever it’s been a long time that we’ve not interacted.

Almost 4 years that we’ve been reintroducing ourselves online and finally the following years we became real good friends. I often wonder, why would someone bother to ‘reconnect’ with someone whom they always forgot their name and background. I guess that’s what true friendship is.

We would chat with each other late night while he was working on BST. We would talk about his interest in cars, anime, kdrama & kmovies, his life experience which included his love life, his aching kidney stone and his love ones (family and friends). With that he quoted:

Boys will always be boys (H)

i think youre the only girl that knows alot about me now ahhaha

ShedZster (L)SWINBURNE(L) |Jazakallahukhairan|

Im glad to be the ONLY one -_-“

Sigh. Only God knows how I felt when I got to know when you left me in sorrow. That Saturday morning, 8^th March 2008, we were chatting the whole morning till evening before you left to go drinking with your friends.

The next morning, I was waiting for more update stories from you but you didn’t show up. I was a bit worried and told myself that maybe you were too drunk to wake up that u slept in and hope that you’d be fine. So, I went to your Facebook and there I saw a post by your friend, Akin, posting a farewell for you.

How I was in denial and I thought that it was a bad joke. You didn’t turn up on Sunday and on Monday. I checked your Facebook on again on Tuesday and saw two more posts praying you’ll rest in peace. Oh dear GOD! I was scared. Coincidently, Masez was asking your real name on msn.

She had heard the news too but it took her a few minutes to break it to me when I was waiting for her to say it. When she finally said it and told me to wait on for confirmation if that Daniel Liew is you, tears started flowing and I knew that I didn’t have to wait for confirmation because I know that God loves you very much.

So, I decided to send a message to Akin on Facebook before going to class regarding your death. On the way to class, I just couldn’t believe you’re gone and I was trying my best to hold back the tears through out the class lecture and doing my group work at the library. As soon as I was done, I walked home so fast, and when I reached my floor on the way to my room, the tears wanted to flow.

I cried so hard, mourning for you was the only thing I could do alone. I read Akin’s reply affirming that it was true and that he told every thing he knew regarding your self-accident at Kota Batu on that Saturday night and that you couldn’t be saved after the operation. It was hard for me to swallow everything. We had so much laughter before you left.

I kept looking at your Facebook and your Friendster as many of your friends grieve for you. Masez tried to console me as well as Neeza but its hard enough for them to hear me like this. The next day I thought that I could go another day without crying but I can’t because you had given me a lot of memorable time.

Surz called me up and tried to talk to me and told me that you wouldn’t want me to mourn for you which painful made me guilty towards you. I’m sorry Danny but I just can’t seem let it go that easily but I’ll do my best to do it slowly.

Reading back our chat log on Saturday; I was so ever careless not to have read that you hinted that you were leaving us behind.

Nox

kalau ku dapat balik jua tu krg (If I’ll be able to return home”)

Daniel, you’ve been a great friend and outgoing person with hidden problems that you’d shared it with me and even to those who were close to you. You were a true friend for almost 7 years that I’ve NOT ever bump into before and here I am, waiting to return to Brunei to see your grave instead.

My girls miss you too and even THIS BANDITS! From Fighter’s Club were surprised that you left us.

To Daniel Liew Boon Hwa’s Family and friends, this is a blog dedicated to our beloved Danny. Condolences goes to each and every one of you who where close to his heart.

May you rest in peace and you’ll be forever remembered.

“Say goodbye but don’t you cry because true loves never dies” – Say goodbye S Club 7

(Referred by Masez)

And this ones from me

“Though I’m missing you, I’ll find my way to get through, living without you, ‘cause you are my friend, my strength and my pride, only God may know why, still I will get by.”- Set it off OST

Daniel, I’m missing you each day and hope that you are in a safe and fun place to be. I’ll promise you that I’ll grow out of this sorrow. Although we had to plan to meet up but instead I’ll be seeing your grave, I’m still lucky to have known you. A life on earth is a place for us to explore but it is the soul that lives on for eternity.

Treasuring you as a life worth living and these tears flowing are tears of moments we spent with Daniel Liew.

Rest in Peace, forever remembered Daniel Liew Boon Hwa (1983-2008).

CONGRATULATORY to my Sister

During my breaks in Brunei, I had to do errands with my sister and it was stressing enough that we had to use my car since her car was still in the workshop fixing. I had to be her driver to send her off to her attachment place at Royal Brunei Armed Forces (RBAF).

At first with was alright but once I had plans made for my friends it was very hard for me to swallow the frustration of last minute calls or messages from her but I had to obey her since she is older than me and she's very scary at times xD

She prayed everyday to be able to join the army as a medical officer since she has been slacking off for a year. It was sad to see her struggling and listening to her problems as well as her excited moments working there. Once I returned back to Melbourne, just yesterday I received a text message from her telling me that she got commissioned (7th March) as a Captain under RBAF

Only God knows why my tears started to come out when I finish reading it. I guess all that struggling and not getting much rest was worth it for my sister whom I love and respect. I am happy for her achievement!

But I was disappointed that the big story to it was that she is the FIRST FEMALE medical officer in RBAF. I got to know it from Wafi when he posted a link to share and read. He said he loves my sister quoting "..working for RBAF - the defender of Brunei's sovereignty - is one the most dignified careers one could have.."

Though it's sad not to know the whole story from her, I'm still happy for her and wish her all the best in her career! Be the best in everything sis! Coz that's what you do best :)

[FORWARD EMAIL] NAIL IN THE FENCE

> > > Make sure you read all the way down to the last sentence.
> > > (Most importantly the last sentence)

There once was a little boy who had a bad temper. His Father gave him a bag of nails and told him that every time he lost his temper, he must hammer a nail into the back of the fence. The first day the boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. Over the next few weeks, as he learned to control his anger, the number of nails hammered daily gradually dwindled down. He discovered it was easier to hold his temper than to drive those nails into the fence. Finally the day came when the boy didn't lose his temper at all. He told his father about it and the father suggested that the boy now pull out one nail for each day that he was able to hold his temper.

The days passed and the young boy was finally able to tell his father that all the nails were gone. The father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence He said, 'You have done well, my son, but look at the holes in the fence. The fence will never be the same. When you say things in anger they leave a scar just like this one. You can put a knife in a man and draw it out.

It won't matter how many times you say I'm sorry, the wound is still there. ' A verbal wound is as bad as a physical one. Friends are very rare jewels, indeed. They make you smile and encourage you to succeed. They lend an ear, they share words of praise and they always want to open their hearts to us.'

It's National Friendship Week. Show your friends how much you care. Send this to everyone you consider a FRIEND, even if it means sending it back to the person who sent it to you. If it comes back to you, then you'll know you have a circle of friends.

> > > YOU ARE MY FRIEND AND I AM HONORED!

10 Easy Ways for Students to Save Money

10 easy ways for students to save money

Stretch Your Dollars

While you are in school, and maybe even right after you graduate, you are going to be on a tight budget. Looking for little ways that you can save money will prove to be very important during your school years and beyond. To help you out, here are 10 easy ways for students to save money:

• Stop Buying on Impulse

Impulse shopping can be very tempting while out and about. The problem with this is that you end up blowing money on stuff you don’t really need, and sometimes on stuff you don’t really want. Before making a purchase make sure it is truly and necessary.

• Hide the Credit Cards

Many students give into the temptation to buy now and pay later. Unfortunately, these spending habits can come back to bite you. If you find that you can’t charge responsibly, hide the credit cards until you learn a little restraint.

• Give Up Bad Habits

Everyone has at least one bad habit.

Maybe you smoke, drink Cosmos like no tomorrow, or buy expensive coffee before class. Whatever it is, cut it out. You’ll be surprised at how much money you save.

• Stop Keeping Up with the Joneses

Just because your roommate or your pals down the hall have seemingly endless allowance, it doesn’t mean you do it too. Try to avoid keeping up with the Joneses and stay true to your budget.

• Find Bargains

When shopping, look for clearance items or two-for-one bargains, buy used books instead of new, and order the special instead of something off the menu. If you can find a bargain every time you go shopping, you will save more money than you ever imagined.

• Buy Machine Washable Clothes

You’re in college. You don’t need a dry cleaning bill! Buy clothes that you can wash yourself or take home to mom. If you must buy dry clean only clothes, try to limit how often you wear them.

• Take Hand-Me-Downs

Whether it is a used book or previously worn clothes, there is no shame in taking hand-me-downs. If somebody offers you something and you can use it, take it gratefully. When you’re making more money, you may be able to someday do the same thing for someone else who will be just as grateful.

• Stay Home

While it can be nice to go out of the dorm every now and then, staying at the home is much cheaper. Instead of going out for the night, invite a few friends over for movies, games, gossip, or snacks.

• See a Matinee

Going to the movies with a few friends can be an expensive outing. Instead of going at night, try catching a matinee. Daytime shows are usually half the price of their nighttime counterparts and can be just as much fun.

• Go to the Library

Did you know that most libraries offer you the chance to check out DVDs, CDs, and other forms of entertainment free of charge? Well, they do, and by taking advantage of this resource, you can eliminate the money you spend on buying CDs and renting movies.
