Pens are Every Student's Lifeline!

Even with the introduction of laptops and personal computers, you may be surprised how important pens can still be for a student. Ever since I was a high school student where for some reason, the teachers wanted us to started using pens, I always had a hard time finding the right pens to use. Most of the time, I will find a pen that I like in the shop, and after buying it and using it for not more than 1 week, the ink will dry up and I will be left with nothing but a useless pen! I hated that so much! I used to have like over 100 of pens in my drawer, thinking that one day it may work again. But for some reason.. it doesn't.

There was a lot of other ways to try getting the ink out though. I remember one of them was to heat up the tip of the pen with a lighter. The objective was to get the ink out or something. I didn't really know the reason too but it kinda work.. for maybe a day or two, but after a while or so, it would dry up again. And if you don't do it carefully, you'll end up with a melted pen.

Do you have any pen experience too? What are your favorite pens?

Ranting post!

Ok.. just to mentally prepare you guys.. This is gonna be a ranting post. I'm in a sour and moody mood right now so I'm gonna complain and sulk about how miserable my life is right now for the next few minutes. Sorry if I'm gonna bore you or bring you down too.. COZ I warned you! =(

Argh...!!! Another 3 more weeks to the end of the semester! I can't wait for it to be over! I don't know why but I can't find the strength or the will power in me to continue to work hard anymore. I have been so busy lately trying to accomplish as many things as possible and now.. all fire in me has diminished!!! I don't know why!!! >.<

I wanna go back home and see my family and experience all that is familiar to me again. I'm tired of putting a strong face in front of everyone and working hard inside me to be strong in facing everything that is new around me! Everyone around me complains about how much they miss home and they merely stay a few hours away from home! They do go back for holidays and stuff but me..? I'm 18 hours away from home!!! Halfway across the earth!!!

It's not that I'm terribly home sick or I cry myself to sleep every night, its just I'm tired of being cheerful and strong anymore. I wanna sit around in my room and not care about anything else anymore. I'm tired of always wanting to be the best in everything and fail to satisfy my own needs because of it.

I'm tired of disappointing everybody or not fufilling other people's expectations! What about my own needs? Why must I want to be the best in everything? Why can't I be satisfied in being second best or not even close to the best?

Ok... Now that I have finish ranting, I kinda feel better now. Writing things out really puts things into perspective! Another 3 more weeks! I will work hard to finish off the year with a blast!

If any of you feel the same way too.. just hang in there ya! ^.^

P:S/ I'm weird I know..

Happy Birthday!!!

This is gonna be my first time away from my daddy when he is having his birthday! My beloved daddy is turning 49 this year! In Malaysia right this very moment. Tomorrow will be my daddy's birthday over in US.

One year away from being 50 years old! Kinda scary thinking about it..

Ever since I was born my daddy was the one that looked out for me, helped me cross the road, woke up in the middle of the night to feed me, fetched me to school everyday, taught me to ride the bicycle though I still havent mastered the 'art' of doing it, taught me how to draw especially since the subject I hated most was art, played the piano for me, told me weird bedtime stories.. Ah.. the list goes on and on and on..

And now that I'm away from home, I feel I miss you so much daddy.. Coz I cannot share with you every single problem that I'm facing now. Who's gonna advice me when my boss treated me terribly when I had a part-time job? Who's gonna tell me that the girl that treated me coldly in school was because she was jealous of me and I shouldn't feel that I am in any way less than her? Who's gonna decide what classes I should take in the future? Who's gonna warn me to be careful when I go out in the night? Who's gonna help me check the car and make sure its all safe and sound? I have to decide all these on my on now and I don't like it a single biT!!!

I miss you daddy!!! You're the wisest man in the whole entire universe. There's nothing you can't solve! Though sometimes you may have super weird suggestions but I know its always for my own good. Though you may give me super weird answers to my questions because you don't know the answers yourself, I am fully appreciative because you're there to share my problems with me.

Though there's still skype, but its not the same than talking hours without end together with you. I miss those drives that we had when you had to fetch me somewhere because we always have the most meaningful chats then! You used to share with me the problems you had in your company and how 'terrible' your collegues were. We could talk about anything! World issues, why there shouldn't be gay people in the world (I don't agree with you dad!), politics, religion. You are definitely my hero dad!

Happy Birthday daddy.

Happy Happy Birthday! May there be thousands and thousands more birthdays to come!

Lotsa Luv,
Your baby daughter!

The Wonders of The Internet!

OH my goodness! I just realized how wonderful the internet is! I'm currently listening to FlyFM all the way from O.C California! I always know that we could do that, listening to radio from the internet.. but with the terrible connection and all, it didn't occur to me to actually do that. But I had the sudden urge to listen to something familiar and I went to the website and ola! I can listen to it! And its all clear and smooth! No problems whatsoever! So although it's Sunday 5pm now.. I'm feeling as though I'm caught up in the terrible morning KL rush of a Monday morning!

Argh! This is so weird!!!

I miss MALAYSIA!!! I MISS MY HOME!!! >.<

I even went to the 8tv website and guess what! I can watch the 8tv Mandarin News from there! You know the ironical part? I am not one that watches the news! And to watch Mandarin News? I must be super missing Malaysia! Boohooo.. But I'm so glad I did it though.. Made me feel I'm part of all these! Though i didn't really understand why people are spraying water all over the streets! Anyone wanna explain to me that?

I'm so out in Malaysian news! Anything big and huge that I should know off? Like the change of political party or some new rule that 'equally' benefits everybody? No..?

Guess nothing has change then! But I still love Malaysia nonetheless!

There are a few shows that people can watch if they missed it on TV! Though most if not all are local shows. I saw Ho Chiak there too. I know I shouldn't have clicked it because I would so suffer but I did it anyway! Boohooo...

Do you guys know how lucky you guys are to get to eat Malaysian food everyday? AHHHH...

Somebody pay for my ticket back PLEASE!!!

p:s/ I know I have not been updating lately! Thank you so much if you guys are still dropping by occasionally! =) Muarx!
