Reflecting, Remembering and Respecting 2006

With the passing of christmas, it is slowing dawning on us all that the year has indeed almost come to an end. All of a sudden, you feel extreamly guilty for not keeping with all the resolutions you have made, no matter no ridiculous and far fetched as they may be ie: learning to play the guitar like carlos santana / sing like pavarotti/ dance like jolin tsai/ marry wang lee hom. Besides that, you suddenly feel much older and matured, (after all tong zhi has already passed). I am 21 according to the chinese lunar calender oh my goodness.

Angelin had compiled a list of her own what I'd like to call "favourite whatevers" of 2006. I liked the idea, and yes as a friend I feel obliged to do the same. So yes, this entry is dedicated to 2006 and yes, to my dear friend.

So much laughter yet So much tears,
So many accomplishments yet So much frustrations,
So much activities, so little time but so much joy.

I hope every year will be as eventful as this.
The year my birthday falls on Chinese New Year.
The year I turn eighteen.
The year I finally obtained freedom to persue what I want.

I now dare whoever who is reading this and has a blog to write this as well :)

Merry Christmas? Lonely christmas?

Christmas,the season of hope,love and joy.
the season of pretty ornaments and even prettier santarinas,
season of towering plastic christmas trees and sales,
season of presents and gifts.
the season to hide your worries under the chrismas hat and pretend that they do not exist?


taken three days before chrismas -.-' tarc students have indeed gone mad.

Ever heard of the phrase that it is christmas everyday when you are happy?
Corny? yes. But yes it is all so true.
You dont need plastic trees and an even more plastic angel on top of the tree to make you glow in a almost holy,luminous sheen like an SK 2 model.

Logging on to msn today, I noticed something interesting.
At least 8 people have put "lonely christmas" as their display name.
I wonder why?
Peer pressure?
Does it take another half to make christmas less lonely?
Don't tell me being with friends and family means nothing?
Christmas is after all not valentine.
It's about being happy and glad that you can celebrate it with the ones you care the most.

It's not about ego.
neither it is a competition,
or a material race.

Sometimes, we tend to complicate the simplest matters.

Whatever Turns you on

I am double posting. I don't care. This is too cute to not to blog about!

Went to Alpha Angel today only to see this extreamly weird lamp in a home furnishings shop. please don't ask me what I was doing there in the first place



Haha! Its pretty obvious what it takes to turn them on huh?? =P

Labels: amusing, outings, photography

See the similarity??

Due to the fact that a certain Yb I know is joining an activity called Imagine Days which is organized by microsoft, I had decided to take notice about the poster only to realise that it looks startlingly alike to a certain famous advertorial in our daily papers. Please look closely and you'll understand my dears.

The Imagine Day poster:


Doesn't this look tad familar??
A bit too TAD familar?

Take a look at this..


What's with this sudden fascination for green wings??

Goodness. Poor microsoft student ambassadors will one day be mistaken to be OSIM's UZap's models!! albeit not so good looking nya
Sweatnye...

I am happy to announce that I managed to somehow survive economic's test today despite only having 3 hours of sleep due to last minute studying. Yes, I know I am an ass. These things never really do pay off well. I really should never try this again. Not without caffeine anyway.

So yeah, I am so bloody tired that I am almost on the verge of collapsing on my keyboard and succumbing to deep sweet slumber. But anyway, some people has just got my nerves that I can't possible sleep if I dont hack madly at my keyboard and blog about it.

Tell me, what kind of people decides that it's cool to NOT attend the test and then come right after the test and start asking people what questions came out? WHAT THE FUCKNESS. and the particular Moronic Piece of Existence (MPoE) actually tried to ask me. I am generally an okay person but this is too much.

Guess what? I told him to fuck off cause its not fair to us all.
I didn't literally say fuck off. But yeah, this is probably the best way to summarize what I said. I dont remember what I said anyway
Believe it or not, he didn't feel ashamed at ALL. Goodness. He even retaliated.
"You know what, I can ask some one else and get the tips" *while pointing index finger at me

I was actually kind enough to wish him good luck after that sentence.


Thank you cookie monster. You have just stole the exact words on my lips.

I don't think I went overboard.
He is not a stupid person. On the contrary.
Why should he sink to such a level to do such a thing?
Why should I help him?
It's not the first time he did something like this.

It's the unfairness I can't tolerate. He didnt come and he demanded us to give him tips. Oh the arrogance!

Dear Moronic piece of existance, God has blessed you with a BRAIN.
A BRAIN! Use it dammit!!! Use it to think.

Think of those who had studied.
Think of those who had studied last minute and had only several hours of sleep.
Think of those who had NOT studied but had the guts to come and fail.
Think of how the above population will feel if you got an A because you had tips.

Goodness. T-H-I-N-K.

REFLECTIONS
Today's post is going to be rather personal, and if you are a person who'd rather be picking coconuts instead of reading such an entry, go right ahead as I might bore the frilly pink french underpants off you.

FAU Executive Board 2006/2007

Everything has been surreal ever since I first gotten the sms to be one of the Organizing Committee of NBDC(Novemeber Blood Donation campaign) and AGM(Annual General Meeting). Although it has been a rather tiring process, I have learnt alot and grown through the process.

Emceeing was something as alien to me as a durian would appear to a penguin, I initally had -100% faith doing something so large scale. college hall leh wei!with spotlight, coat and podium! Apparently, seems like people seem to have more faith in me more than I could ever had.Thus proving the fact I am indeed my own worst critic. But I managed to pull through reasonably well despite the mental stress and pressure from the excos,ex-excos,ex-ex-excos,student affair department representatives,advisors and godknowswhoelselagi prior to the event. But I am thankful for their kind advice and support, especially to ah wong former emcee,teik kwang eventhough he was rather strict and Ms Chen. Now, I am stuck with people going "announcing!" whenever they see me. goodness gracious.

As being emcee was mentally challenging, being the publicity manager for AGM was time consuming and artistically challenging. Lack of ideas and time juggling between studies and activities were put to test rather severely considering it is the jolly season of presentations,mid terms and replacement classes. Nearly got into squabbles between my coursemates for not being there when they needed me. Somehow, I survived with a better photoshop skills and more common sense.

Then came the request for exco interview and the AGM. Being one of the organizing people made it ever so interesting as i had to dash up and down the stage numerous times in 3 inch high heels! Yes mei kay you are officially an idoit when my name was read out for nomination. Thank you, organizing monkeys for saying "announcing! the arrival of ms wong mei kay" when it was my turn to read my speech. Bloody embarassing la wei.

Thinking back, I never even wanted to join this society. I was particially dragged by a fellow Brat to join. I wanted to join xia xiang initially! haha! thus proving the fact that I lack common sense. Tell me, has a half banana ever survived in xia xiang? Where people speak aristocratic mandarin and say their hanyupinyin perfectly?

Through all the madness, I managed to get selected to be one of the member of the executive board 06/07. I suppose I will have to enjoy my free time now as activities begins in march. Yes, this will be one hell of a rollercoaster ride of a year. Thank god I like rollercoasters.

In respect of Aimee's latest discovery and recent declaration of undying love towards a certain site called 'Uncyclopedia',I have decided to take on her dare to write a typical uncyclopedia entry about myself.Proceed reading at own risk.

What is Uncycopedia?
Basically a parody of wikipedia. A website full of glorious madness, madness, need I say more? MADNESS. It has become a partner in crime for crazy people to spread their madness far beyond horizons, bridging racial, cultural and religious borders. Read it at your own risk as many inflated egos and beliefs have been crushed by certain entries.

Suggested searches: god, satan, malaysia, paris hilton, how to play guitar (broke my G-string while fingering A-minor =P)

Ahem. Okay. Back to the POINT.
If you are still reading this, please be warned that you have been warned before.

History
Creation was purely accidental and not planned.Suggested names before birth are Wong Xi Mun (read cantonese), Mickey Wong, Wong Mei Wan and Jade Wong.Eventually shared the name Wong Mei Kay (mei qi) with probably thousands of lala mois, aunties and taitais after name was picked out from temple. Ironically is called mickey sometimes. Heavens must have been siding the subject's father as he was actually the one who wanted to name her Mickey as he thinks it's cute. Unfortunately, subject is ANYTHING but cute.

Background and personality
Grew up in a average Malaysian family with an unsupressed urge to keep moving houses. Thus causing subject to change several schools several times.Currently she is juggling college life in between lecture halls,tutorial class,canteen,shopping centers, mamak stalls,home and kampung.

Subject can sometimes be extreamly serious and cool to a point where it starts to freak people out. Other times, subject can be really mad. Which probably explains why she is writing this entry. Does not belive in 'looking at life through rose colored windows' as subject thinks its dillusional and unrealistic. Appears to be carefree but can be too critical and tad bit too sarcastic for her own good. Finds it hard to believe in people sometimes. Prefer to put more faith in herself and her dog, Sam and all other things adorable and fluffy and yes, preferably dogs.

ATTENTION dear people of planet earth!
I have an announcement that is shocking and yet oh so true.

I am studying BUSINESS.

Yes. Busy-ness. I walk around with thick account notes, go to business informatics systems and application lectures, do quantitave calculations and yes, pretend to read the economics section of star paper every morning at home just so to impress my parents. okay, the last statement is partially fake. I DO attempt to read the business section but gave up due to boredom. AND I DONT read it in front of my parents

So yes my dearest-est people, please take note of the fact or I shall spontaneously combust into a pile of ashes one of these days. Or bite down hard on my tongue.

I dont get it.
Why do people AUTOMATICALLY assume that I study PR?? Or advertising?

Common senario
Some person: what are you studying ar?
emseekwhy: guess
Some person: PR?
emseekwhy: no... guess again!
Some person: Advertising?
emseekwhy: NO NO No!! I study business administration
Some person: dont kid me la.. !!
emseekwhy: =.= 'Really la.. why?
Some person: You have the 'look'. Aiya.. cannot explain.


ahem. before I go any further let me elaborate on the dress styles of the various school in TARC. Really, there is a 'look' which is observed by certain schools.

School Of Social Science and Humanities- Three words: Daring, colorful and bright.Accesories are vital.
School of Business Studies- Moderately dressed. Colorful t-shirt and jeans.
School of Science and Arts and School of Technology- cincai dressers. Any t-shirt and jeans will do.
School of Pre-U- Rojak.


Look???!
wahlao.. This is not good. I look PR-like??! I was even asked to be PR sub-committee for FAU nite. Is this enough proof? This is serious, I dont look business like enough! Preventive actions need to be taken before people dont start taking me seriously enough and bosses will not hire me cause my look lack professionalism of business students! DANG!

Come to think of it, people tend to read me wrongly strangely enough. Let me elaborate:

**ONE
Myth:I study in SSH. Preferable PR or Advertising.
Fact: I study in SBS, Business Administration. Aspiring Mickey Gates.

**TWO
Myth: I am partially chinese, malay, thai or portugese.People speak thai to me in Kelantan! or I think if I run around with a tudung, ulamaks will drag me to a mosque! alamak!!
Fact: Although I can read and write Jawi,I am chinese. My blood is as tulen as air suling.

**THREE
Myth: I am studying advanced diploma, first year.
Truth: I am studying diploma, first year.

**FOUR
Myth: I am a banana. With little or no knowledge of mandarin.
Truth: I can read and write mandarin. (albeit primary level)

**FIVE
Myth: I am 21 years old. Explains why salespeople keep throwing housing and credit card broshures at me.. (I have a 75% passing rate to masuk casino =P)
Truth: I will be 19 next month. Bloody hell. Prematurely old.

They say never judge a book by the cover. Guess it really does apply to me.

Haunted House?

I always wondered why alot of people have shifted away from my rented house in TBR.
now, I think I know why.

Several days ago, while chatting with an ex-housemate, I asked him why the old housemates shifted away.
He told me "This house 'dirty' ar"

WHAT!!??
NOW he tells me??

Then he proceeded to tell me the ex-housemates have experienced weird happening in the house before.

Senario 1
Fellow A went to take a bath before sleeping. When he came back to the room, he saw Fellow B sleeping in his usual position. He then tried to talk to him, but was then ignored. Disgrunted and rather pissed, he decided to face his back toward the person. But after several minutes, he tried to get Fellow B's attention by turning around, he then noticed that no one was sleeping there! wtf!

Senario 2
They were playing mahjong when one guy who was sitting at a position facing the kitchen saw SOMEONE there. But when they checked later, no one was there!

Senario 3
One guy was sleeping soundly when he heard a female voice shouting beside his ear. He was alone in the house then.

Senario 4
The girls had told him they have heard pacings and saw shadows in the middle of the night despite the fact that EVERYONE was asleep then.

When one of the ex housemates went to a chinese bomoh, he was then told that there are not one, BUT TWO wandering spirits 0.o sei lo sei lo.. One male and one female some more wtf

Btw, so far, I havent experienced anything other than feeling extremely cold occasionally eventhough the weather is normal. So yeah, nothing to worry about. After all, I AM getting free air conditioning.

ps: I GIVE UP. Friendster's lure is just too great to resist. Especially after aimee's post about the most discussed bimbo. ISH So yeah, there goes my will.

Labels: college, housemates

No, offense.
But I think the authorities are a bunch of pompous sitting ducks responsible for feeding us endless amount of bullshit.

Remember the case of tarcian accounting student getting robbed AND THEN subsequently murdered??
Remember they promised to have RELA people go around the neighbouring housing estates which many tarcians stay?

Guess what, it lasted lasted for 2 weeks.
Then the RELA people just diminish like morning mist.. LENYAP!!
Seems like they are not so 'RELA' to protect students actually.

Good.
Maybe if someone sacrificed a bit and DIED.
Perhaps they'll be back again.
Perhaps if students start DROPPING DEAD EVERY TWO WEEKS,
they might come back permanently.
if they are forced to

Remember the tragedy.
Remember the drama.
Remember the pain.
Remember Lee Kian Yip.
Remember it can happen again.

Why am I bringing this topic up again?gatal ke?
On the contrary.

Today my classmate became a victim of snatch theives.
ahem. EXTREMELY RICH snatch theives what the fuckness
Tell me, KNCCB, what kind of theif uses A WAJA to rob people???!!!
as in, wind down the window screen and grab -.-'

Poor thing, although she lost only 10 bucks and a handphone,
its the mental trauma she have to go through.
Sad thing was that, the incident happened in BROAD DAYLIGHT.
Along the road I LIVE.
And I feel guilty.
REALLY guilty.

see, she was not suppose to walk along this road.
it happened after she and another classmate decided to come over to my house.
Unfortunately, I wasn't at home as I was at a coffeeshop eating lunch.
She called me right before the incident happened.

told me "okay, meet you at the coffeeshop"
half an hour passed and she still haven't reached.

I know it happens EVERYDAY.
almost EVERYONE here has a story to tell.
and almost EVERYBODY has lost faith in chasing elusive dreams of a safe living enviroment.
