Happy New Year 2012

2011-12-31T22:36:00.000+08:00

Hey there you guys out there. Its 31^st December 2011 and it’s the last day of the year and tmr will be the entering of the new year 2012. Here by I wish u all readers out there a very wonderful new year 2012 and may the year of 2012 is nothing but fantastic year to all of you,..

Salam Sejahtera, dan salam 1 Malaysia kepada anda semua. Ramai yang mungkin tertanya Tanya kenapa tetiba sahaja penulisan blog ini bertukar kepada bahasa melayu. Seperti biasa, tiada apa-apa sebab yang istimewa, cuma terasa terlalu lama tidak menggunakan Bahasa Melayu untuk bertulis. Penulisan Blog kali ini adalah untuk memperbincangkan tahun baru 2012 yang bakal tiba tepat pada jam 12 tengah malam nanti.

Eddie pasti, ramai yang sedang khusyuk meraikan ketibaan tahun baru 2012 sama ada dengan ahli keluarga mahupun dengan sahabat handai. Pesta dan parti di merata tempat sememangnya menjadikan ia satu keraikan yang begitu menarik. apa yang ditunggu-tunggukan cumalah detik ‘countdown’ dimana semua akan bersama-sama mengira ketibaan tahun baru 2012 nanti. Yang pasti tempat-tempat yang agak meriah semestinya mempunyai persembahan bunga api apabila jam menunjukkan tepat 12 tengah malam nanti. Eddie berharap agar semua yang berada di luar sana dapatlah menyaksikan serta menghayati bunga-bunga api yang cantik yang dilepaskan ke udara.

Sigh~~ terdapat ramai orang yang akan meraikan ketibaan tahun baru 2012 namun Eddie di sini keseorangan di biliknya sambil menulis Blognya. Bukanlah kerana Eddie kasihan, cuma kini diriku yang berada di kampung halamanku ‘Teluk Intan’ dan sememangnya Bandar kecil ini tidaklah seriuh kalau dibandingkan dengan Bandar-bandar besar seperti Kuala Lumpur atau pun Pulau Pinang. Eddie juga berharap pada masa hadapan, Eddie dapat meraikan ketibaan tahun baru seperti insan yang lain. Kalau boleh, alangkah eloknya kalau dapat meraikannya dengan pasangan tersayang (walaupun kini masih tiada) dimana kami berkucupan sejurus tibanya tahun baru. Wah, alangkah romantisnya dan saya yakin ini akan mendorongkepada aktiviti yang seterusnya (hmm hmm hmm).. apa yang korang pikir??.. aktiviti seterusnya adalah sesi minum minum teh ataupun kopi lah~~ (hahaha)

Tahun 2011 sememangnya berlalu dengan pantas dan ia terasa seperti semalam sahaja dimana tahun 2010 baru berakhir. Inilah hakikatnya, masa memang berlalu sekelip mata sahaja. Tahun ini, banyak perkara yang telah terjadi pada diriku sendiri. Ada yang suka dan ada yang duka. Namun, Eddie terasa bersyukur kerana sekali lagi Eddie selamat mengharungi satu lagi tahun yang begitu bermakna ini. Yang penting, semua yang terjadi mahupun baik atau buruk dijadikan pedoman serta pengajaran dalam hidup Eddie. Bak kata pepatah buang yang keruh, ambil yang jernih.

Baiklah, Blog kali ini telah pun sampai ke penghujungnya. Entahlah, terasa bahasa eddie telah merosot setelah sekian lama tidak menggunakannya. Mungkin ianya sudah mula berkarat.haha.. kata akhir dari diriku, selamat menyambut tahun baru 2012 kepada semua rakan rakan dan semoga ianya adalah satu tahun yang lebih baik dari tahun tahun yang sebelumnya. CHEERS!!!!!

Happy New Year 2012 To All Of You !!!

Xmas eve Road trip..

2011-12-24T23:15:00.001+08:00

Hey people, its Christmas Eve today and I’m back in my hometown Teluk Intan. It was a very good day for me and my two friend (Ramesh and Alex) as we had our time killing our bored Christmas Eve. Haha. Suppose we plan to head south to Kuala Selangor to visit the small town, then maybe drop by Sekinchan for their seafood. Anyway, it was a rainy morning but with our determination, the rain never stopped us. Hehe.. well… we started off to Hutan Melintang and had our breakfast there. While we were having our breakfast, we thought a rainy day will just make out trip to K.Selangor a little ‘potong stim’ so we came out with a crazy idea, where we to go all the way north for a hotspring experience. Hell yeah, it was a good idea. After all, a dip in the hot spring would be awesome during rainy season though. Hehe.

Ramesh & Alex :)

inside the car

So, we decided going to Sungai Klah, Sungkai, a small town not far away from Bidor town. I would say the place its worth a visit. Although the rain stopped, still we enjoyed every bit of it. Maybe it’s a weekend, so when we arrive, there were a lot of people there. And its kinda crowded all over the place. Haha. But still as I were saying, we enjoyed every bit of it. The warm water really relaxed us and we did went to the cold water pool as well.. for a second, we turned into little kids again as we slide down the water slide at the pool. Smashing! Hehe.. we spent almost 2 hours in Sg. Klah due to the crazy crowd, we decided heading to somewhere else. There were so many people that we don’t even has chance to boil our eggs we brought in earlier. (sad ~~) ..

Rajah Brooke Butterfly at Kuala Woh

Then.. guess what? We headed to Tapah, another town in Perak state for ‘Banana Leaf curry rice’. That time was already almost 3pm and the shop actually had nothing left. However, we still enjoy the food to the max. (lol, maybe its coz we’re hungry that time). And after our late lunch, we went to Hutan Lipur Kuala Woh Waterfall area where it is one of the well-known waterfall site In Perak. Suppose we planned to dip ourselves in the icy cool waterfall but the water level its kinda low therefore it kills our desire. But still we enjoyed the amazing scenery and fresh air surrounded by tress and water. Hmm.. I surely will go there again sometime as the environment there is just superbly awesome. Trust me.. go have a look for yourself and u will know what I mean.

Its time to head back to home.. but there is one more place to go before we actually reached Teluk Intan, we stopped for a refreshing coconut drink at a small stall just on the road side near a junction of Sungai Manik and Chenderong Balai [(4.121582,101.122026) the code in the google map where u can specifically found the stall]. After the drink, we finally satisfy with the final rep and headed back home. We surely had our Xmas eve filled with satisfaction. Haha

Last but not least, I would like to wish all of you out there a Very Merry Christmas and May all your wishes come true as Santa knows that all of you has been a very good boys and girls. As for myself.. I want nothing other than each and every person out there to be happy and to be safe all the time. I’ll see you guys again in the next post ok guys? Hahahaha.. HO HO HO.. Merry Christmas!!!

Winter Solstice ?? Tong Yuen Day??

2011-12-22T20:47:00.000+08:00

Oh, its been awhile since the last blog i posted. today is 22nd Dec 2011 (Thursday) and guess what? its Winter Solstice festival. i understand that during this festival the Sunshine will be on its weakest and the shortest daylight ever of the year. Haha.. i read it somewhere in wikipedia though.

So, its TongYuen Festival and i got no idea it was until i saw alot of posts posted in FaceBook. lol, a lot of ppl posting out the pictures of the TongYuen they had. some are self made, some they bought from shops. they all seems so into the festival and posting status on how delicious and how happy they are having TongYuen to eat. well, i am happy for them too. after all, eating TongYuen indicates a person growing up and also it brings togetherness. Unfortunate to me, i never had the chance to taste a single biji of the TongYuen. although i am not a fan of TongYuen still i wish i could at least try and feel the hype right? after all, its the chinese tradition that has been passed down for years. or in this case, for decades. haha.

well, i guess i got nothing much to say anymore.. its a sudden and random topic to write though. So, here am i wishing all of you out there a very wonderful Winter Solstice Festival!!! oh ya... Christmas is around the corner by the way... i am sure a lot of ppl out there started preparing for the celebration. as for myself... i guess it will be a lonely Christmas. -Eddie-

White Water Rafting

2011-10-12T11:16:00.005+08:00

I am a RAFTER!!! WOOHOOO

On a very fine Friday morning (7.10.11), I went for water rafting in Gopeng. That day was actually an outing for the tourist guide trainees. So, the trainer decided to bring the trainees for an outing in Gopeng. It is one of the learning processes through the course. So, I as the employee of the institute and a senior to the trainees have to go and monitor them. (the truth is I am there becoming bzbody)..
Well, we started our journey from Ipoh to Gopeng. And we had our breakfast in one of the famous yong tau fu noodle coffeeshop there (opposite RHB bank in Gopeng). After our breakfast, we went straight to the office in Gopeng which in charge of our water rafting activity for that day. For your information, we’re taking the services from ‘Adeline’s rest house’. They provide ‘back-to-nature’ activities and also accommodation. It’s so suitable for those nature lovers that love outdoor extreme activities. For more information, kindly visit their websites in http://www.rumahrehatadeline.com/ . Other than water rafting, they also provide a lot of activities such as waterfall abseiling, jungle trekking, paintball, caving and so on.

So, back to our journey, we were brought to ‘Adeline rest house’ using a lorry. Our vehicles were left at the office earlier and we took a lorry up to the hill. It was one hell of an experience, standing behind the moving lorry and enjoying the scenery of the village and the hills. It’s just so wonderful and it really took our minds off from the busy city life. The air is just so freaking fresh. And guess what, Gopeng indeed has a lot of ‘durian’ trees. Lol.

After we reached to the expected destination, we started to get ready and headed to the equipment place where we were given our life-jacket, helmet, and the paddle. At the same time, we were taught on the safety and briefing throughout the water rafting journey later. And yeah!! We’re ready to go.!!

Amri, Ezmal and ME!!

The whole rafting journey took about one and a half hour. 7 KM raft. And its only a Grade 1 rafting. Compare to what I did back in year 2010 in Padas, Sabah, the rafting level was up to Grade 3-4. Anyway, it was just as fun as I expected. After all, it’s my 1^st time doing this activity in PERAK. I’m proud enough because Perak state has the potential to conduct such extreme activities. Throughout the 7 KM journey, I couldn't describe it. it was just so exiting and adrenaline rushing. Well, u can just look at my pictures and u can feel the hype too. The water was cold and clear, the weather is perfect. It’s just so awesome. To look at the video, pls do go to https://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=10150355462508979, :)

So, when the journey almost came to the end, we were asked to body raft till the finishing point. Haha. We were once again brought back to ‘Adeline rest house’ and after cleaning ourselves up, we had our lunch there. And I am telling u guys out there, the foods were extra delicious. What I like about here is that, it requires tourist to wash their own plates and cups after using it. How smart. Hehe. So, that’s about it a short description bout my journey for water rafting. I definitely will go again and hopefully you all too will come and try for yourselves.

Its Over Yeah

2011-08-25T10:48:00.001+08:00

Hello guys, its almost the end of August and Raya celebration is just around the corner. Anyway, today I just wanna crap something. There might be something that I never mentioned before. I took my Tourist Guide License Course. YUP, thats right, Tourist Guide. Being a Tourist Guide was never my aims but it will never be a waste to owned one additional skill either. Anyway, I have been working as an admin officer in GIT Academy Sdn Bhd (IPOH) since March 2011. So, apart from working here.. this is the place where I took my TG course as well… it all make sense right? I work here, might as well I took a course here. After all, its just another additional skill that I am gaining.

I started the course in March and I am really glad as apart from learning new stuff every day, I also met new friends and formed a very good friendship among them. The almost five months’ course duration ain’t a waste as I learnt more about tourism industry. I realize that what I have learn during my Uni it’s just a very small portion of the whole tourism industry, Anyway, the course finally over and there will be no more classes for us. Sometimes it felt a little different when u no longer has to attend classes.

During my Coach Examination

On the 16^th August 2011, we had our written examination followed by the practical examination on the 22^nd August 2011. Both examinations were very important to us as whether we “eat rice or eat porridge” (Chinese idiom) depend on these examinations. During our last day of examination, mix feelings of excitement, nervous, happy and sadness all occurred at the same time. It was truly a memorable day to remember for all of us. Hence, all our hard work had comes to an end.

To all fellow GIT Ipoh trainees batch 2/2011, I wish all of u the best and hopefully we pass the exam brilliantly. And what Mike told us; “Don’t be a guide just because we have the license, but use our license as a stepping stone to become a better guide every time”.. And I seconded that.

Seriously, I don’t know whether I will do any guiding or not in the future but with the badge I am going to have, it will manage to bring me further. Just keep our finger crossed.

Happy Exam Over~~

Even our GIT KL principle, Miss Cindy and Mr.Jenson came to gv us support.

"THINK TOURISM, ACT TOURISM"

Everything PARENT did is for their children own good !?!?

2011-06-27T16:58:00.002+08:00

Hey everyone out there, its seriously been awhile. I myself also can’t believe that this blog has been freezing almost half a year now. The previous post was like 20^th January 2011?? Omg, its really a freaking long time. I’m here today coz of my inner rage within myself that makes me wanna share a little sumthing with u all out there. Well, a personal thoughts of mine and I am not asking for opinions here. So, I apologize for the involved party, if u think what I mention later offended anyone, I apologize in advance. But seriously, i don’t care. Lol.

So, a lot of things happened in the past half year. I went for interviews and failed them, I got my new job, I am starting my new class, and I am living in a different environment. So, none of these things I wanna talk about, if u guys really wanna know, well.. just msg me.. I wil reply u all in no time.

Okay, enuf for the introduction and greetings, and now.. the real thing is here. So, base on the title above, today topic is about parenthood. Well.. undeniable, parents are the creatures that loves their children the most. Despite what the children have done to them, still they are the most forgiving human being on earth that one can find. And parents will do anything just to see their children happy, or keep them away from danger. And I seriously respect all parents out there. No matter u hv been parent for a long time, or just recently being a parent, or even going to be a parent. u guys gain my respect. Sincerely.

Well, sometimes, parent did’t realize that what they did will indirectly or perhaps directly hurting their children. They might think that what they have done, is for the children own good, but come on, is that really so? Parent has all the rights to do whatever they want to their children in almost everything. But there is only one thing and one thing only that parents aint gonna interfere it’s the children happiness. When they are young, YES!! They need u to tell them what happiness is. U feed them, u shower them with love and u make them happy. That is happiness.. and as ur child grow older u aint got the say anymore of what is happiness. Children will have their own definition of happiness and they knew exactly where to find it. And as a parent if u don’t know how to accept that fact, well sorry folks.. ur eventually just pulling the distance between u and ur children further. We as children, we will always love u all as parent, but we aint looking for happiness through u. we seek for something different and bigger, and more important and precious. We seek for BLESSINGS!!! Blessings is the one we really need after we grew up. U all has done a good job by giving us happiness that we need during our childhood and we love u for that.

Unfortunately, sumtimes, parent just didn’t know when to stop. They will keep on doing whatever they think whats best for their children. And we cant blame them. Coz this is the way how parents roll. They don’t care even if their children unwillingly doing things that they are being asked. Parents rather been hated by their children just to make sure the poor child listen to them. There are parent that willingly die for their children. All it is because of wanting their children to go the way they wanted.

But dear parent, u guys need to understand.. your children aint the infant anymore that need the mother to breast feed, that need the daddy to carry around all the time. Not anymore! The children has grown up and has the thinking of their own. Just accept the fact and suck it up!! We all as children will still respect and love u. and coz of that, it aint giving u all rights to break or take away the happiness of the children. HAPPINESS is in our own bare hands, no matter what happen in future, we wont regret as it is our own decisions. We wont blame u guys for not stopping us. (of course when we’re doing drugs, u should do sumthing to stop us.) because, what we really need is ur supports and blessings.

And of course, there are a few major examples that can be related to the above discussion. For example,
1. ‘job’. Parents should not expect their kids to do/to be someone u wants them to. Give them freedom. Give them support; let them do whateva they want that will make them happy. By doing things they enjoyed, they will certainly make a living out of it. what for to have a big earnings but deep inside the kids are having depression and unhappy in work place?
2. ‘relationship’. This is the worst case that a parent can do to their children. In those days, especially the asian family, parents we’re fucked up to arrange a match-making for their children. Although this practice has been slowly vanishing but still there are a few still happening. Dear parents, as I said earlier, happiness is in the hand of the children themselves. Especially in love life, it is seriously forbidden for parent to interfere in it. So what if the daughter want to marry a drug addict??? So what if the son want to marry a prostitute??? Its all about the chemistry they have with their loves one. (the example was too exaggerate, but it is straight to the point). It gives no rights for anyone even parent to interfere and break the relation off. Parent always give children a hard time by wanting them to decide whether to select between parent and the love one. And this is actually torturing the poor child and it gave no mercy, eventually the child would have to choose his/her parent over their lover. Because we asian, we are the most loyal children ever. And this will be the end of it.

so, I guess that enuf from me. For now. Lol.. anyway, once again I apologize for the blog and I am sure this matter is very subjective. It might be right, it can be wrong. But I just want to stress a thing that is, we as children will always love our parent. We as children, we rather our heart is aching, and bleeding all the time in order to show our love to u all. Coz we do love u, without u all parent, they wont be us.

PS . I am very lucky and I am indeed grateful that my parent are the most understanding people in the world, at least in my life. They might be disagree on stuff I did sometimes, but in the end they showed me the best supports and blessings to me. I will remember that my mummy once said to me. “whateva u do, we will support u as long you think it’s a right thing to do”. thanks daddy mummy.

2011

2011-01-20T03:37:00.000+08:00

Another great year gone by and now it’s already year 2011. It has been a great year 2010 and I guess life has just got to move on despite the good and bad that happened in the year 2010. Year 2010 indeed it’s a good year to remember. My graduation, my 1^st job, and etc. so, here it is another chapter of the blog namely ‘2011’..

As far as you guys (who reading this) concern, I Eddie Quah has been a NEET since last year December. Quit my job as a tourism officer in Tourism Malaysia Perak hoping for a better opportunity. It’s been… let’s see, almost 2 months as a NEET and I am back to hometown for good. Well, the everyday routine was basically the same. Well, I never stop myself from job hunting and I did go for interviews for my other jobs. Just put it in this way, all doesn’t go well. Hmm, we just have to keep our finger crossed and hope for the best to came rolling to us right? So, I guess all the opportunities will have to wait till the CNY is over. So, I’ll be continuing resting my ass till that day to arrive.

Talking about this year, I bet some people are making their own resolution. As for me, resolutions don’t really occur in my life since forever. And I can’t see the point of having one either. Basically from my understanding, resolution is determination to do something or not to do something and they try hard to make it happen. Well, I used to do or not to do something base on the situation. We can’t just predict what will happen can’t we? However, people have their resolution so that they will plan and know what their next moves are, and what they got to do in order to achieve their aims and goals. so, I guess this is a bit subjective over this matter ain’t it? For me, i do have my own resolution. Well, its not a resolution exactly but more to a list of stuff that I wanted to achieve. And I am gonna try my best to achieve it and hell no I am not gonna grief bout it when I don’t achieve it. That is just me, don’t judge me for my statement there. =)

During my stay since I become a NEET, I try to figure out what I really want in life. This question has been popping out since I was 19 year old kiddo. And till now I gonna be 24 this coming 19^th March. Believe it or not, I still can’t figure out. And that scares the shit out of me. I was always asking and asking and I don’t seem to get the answer. I admit that it is my problem for not taking the initiative to seek for that answer but it’s not that I don’t want to. It’s I am not capable to. I’m always hoping that paths are there for me to walk and just follow whatever paths it might have. I have to come to my senses that I am not a kid anymore. I am becoming a man and a man take responsibilities on his own actions. I want to seek for myself, my true self.

So, though it is too late to say this but I would like to wish people out there a very wonderful new year 2011 and may this year bring more happiness and good health to everyone. And for myself, I wish I can be what I want to be, and I am trying my best to seek for my aim and goal in life. Thanks.~ --eddie-

(below are just some of the stuff that happily happened this year recently)

Family Outing to Sg Klah Sungkai on 1st Jan 2011

What 'WORK' means to you?

2010-11-07T12:37:00.000+08:00

It has been a while since my last blog about my graduation day. And today here I am bullshit-ing again. Anyway, I had a lot of thoughts nowadays and I decided to put it in words and wanna share my thoughts with you people out there.

Well, I never mentioned before on my very first job after completing my practical training in the Ministry of Tourism Malaysia Perak. Well, let me just re-cap a bit. I got a job offer from Tourism Malaysia Perak as a Tourism Officer on a year contract and I officially started to work there on the 1^st September 2010. I am using my STPM qualification to apply for the job as the maximum requirement is up till diploma level. (I was wondering aren’t STPM and Diploma the same?). Anyway, it seems I can’t use my degree qualification as I will be disqualified because I am over qualified. (you guys know what it means) . hahaha… anyway, that’s not the whole point, the point is I am grateful enough to get a job and I don’t have to be a NEET after graduation and stuff. My life sounded good to you isn’t it? Well, keep reading~~

I always thought that being in a working world will be almost the same as the studying world. As long you’re hardworking, listen and obey to whatever instructions u got and finished up your tasks then your ass should be safe. But the world had proved me wrong. It will never be the same. And in working life, you can’t afford to screwed up even one tiny little thing. This is how awful and cruel the working life is. At least mine is. (How pathetic huh). So, what actually I had experienced during my working life?? Well, let’s just say it’s not as wonderful as I was expected.

Everyone has their own thoughts about being in the working life. As for me, most important thing that I am looking for in a job is doing what I like despite how much the salary is. But of course, high salary job will be very tempting though. So, it actually doesn’t really matter what we’re doing as long we’re happy and comfortable when we’re working. But, how many of us will be that lucky to find a job that we really enjoyed and pays well? And I also understand that a lot of employees in the world are doing something that they do not like but they have to for the sake of earning a living.

My philosophy of working life is: It’s important for us to feel that “I WANT to go to work” instead of “I NEED to go to work”. These two sentences might sound the same but the meaning beyond these sentences brings two different major feeling. And right now, I am actually feeling “I NEED to go to work” situation where it’s not a good thing. Once an employee it’s in this situation means he/she no longer suitable to stay any longer in the organization. But of course there are some reasons that they might stay. (what’s yours then?)

For me, the working environment plays an important role to ensure the happiness and satisfaction of an employee. Feeling of being accepted, respected and also appreciated are very important in one self. It’s also a fact that, no matter we are the superior or the subordinate still it’s important to respect each other and creating harmony in a working place. Supports and encouragement between other subordinates is the best thing an employee can have in order to survive and feel safe. But unfortunately, not everyone are lucky enough. So, when that happens everything has to depend on own self and struggling through it.

Maybe some of you realized that what I have discussed here it’s a little general. but it certainly implies my current situation. I hereby conclude that, I am who I am and I will keep on searching for a job that I really comfortable with and blend in the place where I work in future. And who knows? I might end up opening a business of my own. Thank you and regards to all of you out there. Good Luck to everybody!

GRADUATION~~

2010-10-18T09:21:00.000+08:00

Yeah!!! Graduation!! I am now officially a graduate from Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS). The graduation date was a total catch too which was on the 10^th October 2010 (10/10/10). I have been waiting for this day since I first stepped my foot in UMS. Without noticing, my three years of studies in Sabah has officially come to an end. The moment I received my scroll and that’s it, my status as an undergraduate of UMS no longer exists. My return to Sabah for my convocation happened just so fast. And I still can believe that the day had actually arrived. It still feels like yesterday when I first reached sabah, the land beyond the wind to pursue my degree. Anyway, it’s really felt great and enjoyable during my trip back to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah for my graduation.

Putting on the robe and wearing the squared graduation cap indeed gave me a great feeling. It reminds me of my hard works and sleepless nights during my studies in UMS. Most importantly the ups and down during my days in UMS flashes back and it actually saddened me. It might sound a bit embarrassing but I am brave enough to admit that I do shed tears when I finally got up the stage and receive the scroll. I also can feel how proud my family was as they were in the hall looking at me and seen from afar, their little boy walking up the stage to receive his scroll. And I knew… this moment were also the moment they were always waiting for. Thanks mum and dad and without u guys, I won’t be able to stand on the stage.

Felt so happy and proud for my other course mates, school mates and friends who also graduated from UMS. Photo sessions soon begin right after the ceremony ends. Everyone were congratulating each other and the environment was just so harmonist. Meeting back old friends indeed were very happy. Graduation maybe is the last chance for some of us to meet up. And we will only see each other again when we see each other again (sounded confuse of this sentence?). hahaha… well… again.. I would like to wish all UMS students who graduates in the year 2010 has a bright future ahead and hopefully we will all reunite again in years to come. And I specially wish all the (HP08 Tourism Management) course mates all the best and I will always miss u all.. HP08 forever. Thanks.

Wonderful Short Trip

2010-07-26T14:04:00.001+08:00

25^th July 2010. A wonderful Sunday… I had a wonderful trip with my KPL colleagues. Though its for job purpose but for some reason, I enjoyed it very much. Thanks to Pn.Zuraida for this wonderful opportunity… and also thanks to Pn.Jamilah as she allowed me to go. After all, its my last week of practical in the ministry of tourism…

I still remember, that day I was from my hometown, Teluk Intan heading back to Ipoh in the morning .. coz I had to reach Taiping on that day. So, after packing my stuff at my rent house, I started my journey together with my colleague, Ain (another practical student from UUM) to Kuala Kangsar. We were supposed to meet our colleague, Aiman (another practical student from UITM Penang) in Kuala Kangsar and from there we went to Taiping together. Haha…

So, we reached Kuala Kangsar and we had our lunch nearby the river bank. The place there was so peaceful and nice scenery. Though the food was just ok, but still satisfying.. then after lunch, we stopped by and had a bowl of cendol. Somehow I still think the cendol I once had in Sitiawan is better,, wakakakaka.. I had a chance to have a glimpse of the well known Ubudiah Mosque in kuala kangsar and the royal palace of perak… those buildings was so beautiful and I was stuned by their uniqueness… (I wish I could just go there again and look clearer) … we were just by pass the royal town coz we aint have more time to spent there. So, Aiman came and met us, and I just put my car in his house and we started our journey to Taiping using Aiman’s car. Hehe (save duit petrol)..

i can shoot water out from my mouth.. :)

Taiping, the land of peace… is another wonderful town that I haven’t been for almost 10 years since my last visit there. I will surely go there again and have a good look of the town… well, the focus is regarding the lodge we were staying. It’s the Kamalodge hotel and café… omg… I will never forget my stay over there as the place was superbly beautiful with fresh air and a very cute swimming pool.. the pool was located in front of the lodges and though the overall area was not large… but it is enough to let tourists feel relax and enjoy their stay. Nice rooms, with nice food and facilities. One word explained it all… GORGEOUS…

my bed

our house

I was sharing the room with Aiman… and we had our swim in the evening.. the pool was not deep and it is safe to just dip ourselves in the water. ( cant even swim coz its too shallow)… so, after a short water playing activity session, we got rest and waited dinner time. The dinner was another big surprises… well… it was a barbeque dinner and there it was, my favourite grilled lamb… that night, the dinner was superb.

The highlight of the day was our trip to Taiping Zoo night Safari. Right after dinner, we (myself, Aiman & Ain) went to the night safari. We enjoyed ourselves there very much. Looking at the wild life during night time and we took the safari train ride to go around the safari while the driver explained the animals to us. There were only 3 of us taking the ride as there was not much tourist that night. Maybe due to the rainy night and though it’s raining drizzling, we enjoyed ourselves very much. After the short visit in the zoo, our night ended in a mamak stall in Taiping. Had our supper and head back to the lodge. Believe it or not, Aiman and I did something outrageous, we jumped into the pool though its already 1 am in the morning… OMG it was so F*#king freezing in water.. but one thing for sure… it was FUN!! Hahaha..

The next morning, we did dropped by Majlis Perbandaran Taiping and have a brief look on the Act Tourism Course… back to Kuala Kangsar and claim back my car… and drove back to Ipoh… and there I was… I was back again to office… enjoying my very last week of my practical training in KPL…. Hahaha….

Rintihan Hati

2010-07-21T08:46:00.000+08:00

Siapakah diriku sebenarnya? Aku , Eddie Quah cumalah seorang insan biasa yang lemah. Cukupku sedari yang kita sebagai manusia tidak akan terlepas dari mengharungi suka dan duka dalam kehidupan.

Aku yang dikenali dengan sikapku yang periang pun kadang kala terasa pilu di hati. Bak kata pepatah, bumi mana yang tidak ditimpa hujan. Namun pun begitu, aku tidak akan membenarkan diriku bersedih dengan terlalu lama. Kehidupan ini ada juga kegembiraan dimana mana sahaja. Adalah teramat bodoh dan membazir sekali sekiranya kehidupan ini disia siakan dengan kesedihan.

Apakah yang ku perlukan sebenarnya? Sudah menjadi lumrah kehidupan dimana manusia ini sememangnya tamak. Aku pun tidak lari daripadanya. Aku mengaku yang ku juga tamak orangnya. Kalau boleh ingin ku tamak segala-galanya dalam kehidupan ini. Inginkan segalanya untuk diriku ini. Tapi, sering kali aku mengingati diriku… gembirakah aku sekiranya aku memiliki segala-galanya??

Diriku eddie quah, mahukan bukan dari segi wang ringgit. Bukan dari segi harta dan kekayaan. Aku cukup gembira dengan diri ku yang hidup dalam keserdehanaan ini. Ku pun berharap yang pada suatu hari nanti, akan ku menjadi kaya… dengan rezeki yang ku peroleh dengan tangan ku sendiri, dengan cara halal. Tetapi kini… pada umurku yang menjangkau 23 tahun, ku masih mempunyai jalan yang amat jauh untuk diteroka. Akanku merealisasikan impianku dengan secepat mungkin dan dengan perancangan yang bernas.

Kini aku, hidup dalam kekurangan. Aku semiskin miskinnya umpama orang yang telah jatuh papa kedana. Bukan dari segi kewangan, bukan dari segi jumlah harta. Tapi ku miskin dan aku dahagakan keyakinan diri serta sokongan. Cukup kabur pandangan mataku terhadap masa hadapanku, meraba dalam kekaburan mencari laluan ku ke masa hadapan yang cerah. Memerlukan panduan yang amat sangat. Tapi… ku percaya yang pada suatu hari nanti… penglihatanku kini akan menjadi beransur baik dan dapatku melihat jalan jalan yang ku akan jalani dengan penuh semangat dan menuju ke kejayaan mutlak. Tapi kini, walaupun dalam kekaburan, ku mempunyai sokongan padu dari ahli keluarga tersayang.

Ayahanda dan bondaku pernah sekali bersua denganku.. “anakku, buatlah apa sahaja asalkan ia dapat diterima oleh hati nuranimu, kami tidak mengharapkan apa apa kekayaan darimu tapi cukuplah sekiranya kamu hidup selamat dan bergembira” … kata kata semangat yang ku terima dari kedua orang tuaku cukup untuk dijadikan bekalan dalam kehidupanku untuk selama lamanya... walaupun sekarang aku dah besar panjang, aku merasa ku masih anak bongsu mereka yang kecil dan manja. Dari bangku sekolah lagi, aku cuma memegang satu ayat ayahku dijadikan pegangan iaitu.. “belajar biarlah bersungguh-sungguh, dan asalkan telah buat yang terbaik, redhalah dengan segala keputusan yang diperoleh dan yang paling penting, jangan sesekali memaksa diri”.

Aku adalah siapa diriku. Eddie tak perlukan orang yang tidak mempercayaiku, tidak menyokongku. Aku mempunyai visi dan hala tujuku sendiri. Aku tak menyalahkan mana mana pihak atas pandangan mereka sendiri. Cuma berharap diriku ini mendapatkan penghormatan yang ku berhak miliki.

Akhir kata, rintihan hati ini bukannya apa, cume satu luahan dalaman yang ku pendam pada diri sendiri setelah sekian lama. Inginku luahkan dan berkongsi bersama di laman blogku ini. Sekian salam sejahtera dan salam satu Malaysia.

Life in IPOH ???

2010-06-10T16:47:00.000+08:00

Hey everyone, its time for a brand new post again. Since the last post about UMS farewell, here I am again crapping in my humble blog. For those who had read my blog previously, I thank you all for continuing to test your patience by reading my craps and also for the 1st timer, I welcomed u all and I hope you all will enjoy reading my blog as well.

Well, its been a while since I left Sabah and started my practical training here in ‘Pejabat Kementerian Pelancongan Malaysia Negeri Perak Darul Ridzuan’ ( fuh, such a long long name). so, I have to complete the 12 weeks of practical training before I could officially ending all my courses in UMS and finally graduates. So, here I am having my internship in the ministry of tourism Malaysia Perak. Its been almost 5 weeks I’m here doing my intern in Ipoh. So, I’m not going to tell what I’m doing here in the office as it’s boring and lame. Well, there were some interesting story as well but let me just skip those parts.

What I’m keener to crap here is my life here in Ipoh. Basically, one word enough to describe it and it’s none other than the word ‘LONELY’. Hahahaha, I just couldn’t avoid from loneliness am i? haha. Being in Ipoh all alone is somehow a challenge for me. Not that I never been alone before but its just so not cool to be alone actually. When I was doing my internship during my 2nd year of studies in ‘Teluk Batik Resort’, Lumut, I cant felt the loneliness although I’m alone too that moment. Maybe its because of the long tiring working hour and I don’t even have time to feel lonely. Well, its just felt so different over here in Ipoh. I work only during weekdays, from 0800 to 1700 everyday and that’s it. After work, I’ll go back to my rent house and faces the ‘4 sided walls’ (Cantonese). Watching dramas or playing games until dinner time… pheww it’s just so boring.

Dinner time is the worst thing. I’m eating all by myself and it is so frustrating sometimes when I don’t know what to eat. Well, around my house area there are a lot of food to eat and its undeniable that they kind of serve quite good food. As my lady house owner always says “u can eat different food everyday for 2 months” (I guess she was just exaggerating as there are indeed a lot of places that sells many kind of foods but there are also places that serve the same kind of food) hahaha.. so, sometimes I just rather buy back my dinner after work and eat at home. After all, it is no different between eating outside or at home as I am just eating alone. (JIAK KA KI)

The real deal is during weekend.. Weekend is really a time where the ultimate loneliness can be feel. Sometimes I just wish could wake up in the evening but I couldn’t. Maybe its because I already get used to wake up 6 in the morning. The latest can sleep is until 8morning only. Waking up so early in the morning again brings stress to me as I need to figure out what am I going to eat for my breakfast and also lunch. Therefore I will skip my breakfast and take my lunch instead.

When its weekend and I cant stay home and grew mushroom on my head am i??? so, I will go out to places in Ipoh such as the ‘Ipoh Parade’, ‘Jaya Jusco’, ‘Tesco’, ‘Giant’, ‘Yik Fong Complex’, and some other places. My time its filled but somehow it still felt not so good. All because I am all alone. I did watch movie alone here in Ipoh (I always watch movie alone back in KK,Sabah), buying groceries need in Giant, windows shopping in Jusco and driving here and there in Ipoh,, all by myself ONLY..haha.. this is why my life here is so boring.

Many of u out there will start thinking, “why cant u just call your friends in Ipoh or maybe your colleagues and hang out together?” well, folks out there, no that I don’t wish to, but I understand that they too have their own plans.. so, i rather not bothering anyone. Hehe

Alright, I guess its long enough and u guys out there started to feel annoyed by my craps..hahaha.. anyway, I have 7 weeks more to go and hopefully things can start to change to a better one. I’ll talk about my office perhaps in the next post… or maybe I wont..hahaha so, see ya … (eddie sign out)

Good Bye, UMS...

2010-05-05T16:00:00.000+08:00

Oh my, times flies real fast and just a blink of eye everything seems moving in a fast pace. Its been three years… 3 years in UMS and my status as an undergraduate student of school of business and economics has come to an end,. Its feels just like yesterday when I 1st step my foot in the town of Kota Kinabalu , Sabah… but now, it’s the time to leave… somehow.. I will appreciate and remember the days I once had in this wonderful place.

Its my last day here in KK and I am going back on 5th May 2010… the 1855 pm flight is somewhere there waiting for me… at some point I really don’t feels like leaving… unlike other sem breaks, I actually cant wait to go back and I am very excited each time I got to go back to home… somehow this time is different… i understand that this time I am going back, I will not come back here again for studies and meeting my fellow friends… though I am coming back for my graduation, but it just doesn’t feels okay. Everything suddenly has been very important and gained my interest…my school, my uni, my life here as a student of UMS… not forgetting also my friends and people is knew here.

Suddenly there is this emotion came all over me, felt like crying… we had a wonderful time together for the last time before we get apart from each other and that is awesome.. haha. And now, waiting the moment to leave this wonderful place.. is somehow a very unbearable feeling… I hate to go, but there is nothing I could do. I understand very well that this is just a chapter we have to go thru, and by ending this chapter, there will be another chapter of our life will begin.. therefore, no regretz.. and just cherish the moment we once have together….

One thing for sure… no more textbooks, journals, and assignments for me and that is actually a very good thing.. haha, I have so over with studies now and I hope the working environment is going to be a fruitful experience for me. Study has been the pain in my ass throughout my uni life, but I am grateful that I finally get over it…

I close my eyes… the moment I surrender myself to the faith.. I know myself will going to miss this place… the wonderful places, nice people, delicious food and stuffs. So, lastly, at this very second, I would like to express my gratitude… to all my friends, lectures, who direct and indirectly making me a better person in life. And not forgetting, I wanna apologize for whatever I had done. My action that might be hurt others, my speech that sounds ridiculous, and any other thing that might offended u once upon a time, here I truly sorry and I wish everyone ‘may u all be well and happy’…

It's just too fast.. :)

2010-04-12T02:54:00.000+08:00

All these are happening too fast!!! It’s felt like just yesterday the 1st time I ever step my foot in UMS… calling myself junior of the hp08 tourism management student of the school of business and economics. Well, out of sudden now its my last year last semester in this university. 3 years…. 3 awesome years just over… just like that.. wow..

Well, there are surely a lot of memories throughout the 3 years studying in UMS. And surely everything came to an end.. no more lectures, tutorials, classes, assignments and exams!! Hell ya, we are leaving the uni already without us noticing that. How scary was that huh?? Surely miss this place… the university, the town and SABAH especially.. I will surely return again to the beautiful land beyond the wind.. someday….

What’s really came in my mind, and what I care most is the friendship I built here throughout my studies here. I truly treasured all my friends here… well, there is surely a starting and ending to all this.. but I belief, we all can keep in touch as we’re living in the world of technologies.

Hopefully after graduation, every one of us is heading to our own path and led a good life ahead. Be somebody…. Last but not least… may all of them be well and happy.. !!!

Pinky nite~~

2010-03-27T03:29:00.000+08:00

Its one hell of a night i had with my fellow friends Sam and Kish... just finish had our seafood at sri mutiara kampung air... then we decided to have a walk near by the area where all the ahquas are hanging around... looking at them at a long distance its like quite ok and maybe prettier than the real chicks... but, their voices its really giving us a goosebump...we just passed by the ahquas and they were like "ah chai, mari ham lin, kongkek..." then as we walk by they will start chasing after us and asked us not to run.. haha... its so scary.. maybe its because i knew they were actually dudes... but dressing up looking like a chick doesnt make them a chick... that is why its felt abit weird when they approached us and offer their services... hahaha.. so, this is not the climax of the nite, we finally decide to get in the car and start roaming around.. and we wanted to give those ahquas a gift and recorded it ... so, we drove near a group of ahquas and we chat with them for awhile... i couldnt look them into the eyes as it is just so scary... and i quickly gave them the gift and we just cabut... anyway, we all laughed our heart out after the incident... and its surely a nite to remember... my 1st time with ahqua... but i am glad my 1st time is just to talk with them... nothing more,...

Chinese New Year Celebration 2010????

2010-02-22T04:48:00.000+08:00

     Last year, I missed my CNY celebration as I didn’t came back and I celebrated it at Sandakan, Sabah. Back then I am quite enjoying coz I met and made new friends and have the opportunity to visit places in Sandakan. Somehow, I actually very missed the celebration back at home. Which is in Teluk Intan, my hometown.
     This year, I manage to come back and celebrate my CNY and I am very happy to be around my family and relatives. During the whole moment of CNY, they are the one who always by my side and spending time with me. Its still a very enjoying break for me though there are not much Angpaos. But I am happy to be home. One thing I was looking forward via this CNY break is trying to catch up with all my buddies. And maybe have a good time together since I missed hanging out with them last year. But facts have proved me wrong. And it makes me feel coming back this year was a huge mistake. Its like, I’ve been totally forgotten. Or maybe its my mistake as I didn’t make the first move to actually approach them and say “hey, lets hang out and have a good time”. Well, it’s a little bit sore in the heart when u realize your absent is actually giving no impact or even a little curiosity to the people u used to hang out with. Looking at them having fun and full of joy and laughter via pictures and in other forms somehow forms a feel of sorrows in the heart. But in the other hand happy for them to be able to get together and enjoy themselves to the fullest. Well, myself was here alone thinking, “where am i? why am I not with them? Is it coz I am being introversive therefore I don’t get invited?” all these little little thoughts just ran through my mind. And now, the CNY celebration is over, and most of them already back to where they belong. Am I still gonna grief bout it? Well, just keep finger crossed that it will be a better year next year. Ending up, this year CNY I hardly or should I say I never went to any of my friends house to pay them a visit and wishing them happy Chinese new year. Again, I think my CNY celebration this year was the worst one I ever had so far.
     I thought coming back this year will be a blast. A long chat plus hang out and turns out I only can describe my CNY with only a word, LONELY. So, this short break actually gave me a lot of time thinking bout the good old days I once had when we were still little kids riding on bicycles cycling from house to house to collect red packets. As we grew older, we ride our bike and years later we drove our car. Until now, all that suddenly vanished from me. I wouldn’t say it’s a disaster for me, coz its actually up to them whether to have u around or not. And if they are more comfortable without u around, then we might as well back ourselves out, and makes people’s life better. That’s what I am thinking. Last but not least.. just want to wish all the people out there especially to my friends … Happy Chinese New Year and Gong XI Fa Cai!!!! Hope this year of tiger roars more fortunes and luck to all of u.. especially to us the bunnies… peace!!!

Last Sem......... Happy???

2010-01-27T01:34:00.000+08:00

Well, school already started for a few weeks now.. and if ur asking me whether am I enjoying it so far?? Its not.. I cant accept the fact that being in a final semester I still bogged down with tons of assignments and stuffs.. maybe its my own problem being so procrastinating. Or is it because I am going back for my CNY holiday this coming February? The point is, I am just too lazy to move my ass for all these academics bullshitz.. no one to blame but myself.. cant blame the lecturers for being not understanding by giving so many assignments… cant blame them for wanting a perfect presentation and not crap presentations.. for me, there is this class.. the only class that I would not mind attending it even if the class is for 5 hours… which is the Wednesday class… somehow I personally think students will actually enjoy the class when they are not being pressured too hard in a class..

Other than sch gving me a heartache.. leading a life here in sabah for this sem seems more tough than ever.. maybe coz of the ppl, and also the environment… everything not the same anymore compare to previous sems… its just too scary..

Just hope this semester will get better.. but for now.. I just wish I can go back for cny celebration and don’t gv a damn bout other stuff 1st.. homie sweet homie… here I come…

The legendary Mount Kinabalu...

2009-12-04T02:17:00.000+08:00

all together there were 12 of us who went for the trip. we went on the 24th Nov 2009 and we stayed a night at Kinabalu Park.the next day, we took the mesilau trail to hiked to the LabanRata. we spent another night there at LabanRata and the room was superbly small.

the journey continued at 0230 in the morning as we're trying to reach to the top before the sun rise. and along the way, it got really difficult as it was very cold and the mists were heavy..

somehow, i still manage to reach to the top at 0545 and manage to see the sun rise. the view was magnificent and its superbly nice and i was stunned by the god creation. no wonder the mount is one of the world heritage sites coz its really beautiful.. all the coldness and pain i bare were all worth it when ur on the peak of the mountain...one word explains it all... "awesome"...

<--nice mountain seen from the low peak

devon, eddie and sam

our guide.. madam loula

we manage to reach to the top!!!

yeah~~~~~~~~~

Kehidupan Selepas EXAM~~

2009-11-21T01:34:00.000+08:00

Selepas bertungkus-lumus hampir 3 minggu, minggu peperiksaan akhirnya berakhir… dengan segala hormatnya sambil kembang lubang hidung yang peperiksaan akhir semester 1 sesi 2009/2010 telah pun berakhir pada tarikh 19/nov/2009. (jam 11.23am).. dengan kata lain, saya akhirnya bebas dari pembelajaran untuk semester ini.. riangnya hati saya ini…

Peperiksaan kali ini sekali lagi mengambil ratusan nyawa pelajar-pelajar terutama diriku sendiri… kesulitan soalan-soalan sememangnya memberi kerumitan pada diriku.. bukan nak disalahkan pensyarah mahupun pihak lain.. Cuma diri sendiri yang tidak memberikan persediaan 100%. Namun… kebanyakan subjek ku sumpah tidak henti-henti ketika ia berakhir.. Baiklah… peperiksaan akhirnya telah berakhir dan kebanyakan buku-buku telah ku bakar bersama dengan nota-nota yg dibuat sebelum ini.. telahku lama menanti saat begini.. mungkin diantara kamu yang tidak setuju dgn perbuatanku namun (just bare it with me ok?)..ops.. blog kali ini tidak sepatutnya ceritakan tentang peperiksaan.. harap maaf..

Hari-hari tanpa peperiksaan dan pembelajaran sememangnya seperti menjalani kehidupan yang penuh dgn kebebasan. Kehidupan yang umpama tiada kerisauan dan sambil lewa sememangnya enak sekali.. tetapi, kehidupan tanpa exam mahupun kuliah ini cepat dirasakan keBORINGannya… hari-hari dilalui dgn perlahan dan kebosanan diriku kini telah sampai satu tahap dimana saya tidak tahu apa yang perlu dibuat untuk mengisi masa lapangku.. shoping bukanlah aktiviti kegemaranku, bersukan pun hanya boleh dilakukan pada sebelah petang, dan online hampir 24jam sehari telah ku muak. selain drpd itu tiada apa yg boleh dilakukan dan hanyalah menanti saat saya pulang ke tanah halamanku tercinta TelukIntan, Perak. Menemui ayahanda dan bondaku serta rakan rakan semua.

Adui!!~~ kebosanan ku ini telah dapat ku rasa 2 hari selepas kertas peperiksaanku yang terakhir. Dirasakan umpama cendawan dan kulat telahpun tumbuh atas kepala. Oleh kerana terlalu bosan, seorang diri ku akan pergi ke kedai mamak pada tengah malam 3 pagi hanya utk segelas teh tarik, pergi ke muzium sabah, menonton tayangan lewat malam, menunggang motorku ke tempat yang agak jauh untuk makan malam serta meronda sekeliling Bandar kota kinabalu.. semua aktiviti ini ku lakukan seorang diri dan walaupun seorang diri, ku dapat jugak mengubati kebosananku ini.. haha..

Apa lagi yang saya boleh lakukan sebenarnya.?? Saya tidak tahu, saya tidak ingin memikirkannya.. Cuma.. diharap semuanya akan berakhir dan semoga cuti semester ku dapat dimanfaatkan sepenuhnya..

Thanks for spending a little of ur precious time to read my lame complains. However. Here I would like to wish all students best of luck with the results.. and happy holiday… UMS.. see u in the next semester,,

Hmm,, again... exams..

2009-10-29T03:51:00.000+08:00

Ini dia… sekali lagi ku berceloteh tentang topic terhangat setiap kali hujung semester.. kini adalah semester ke-5 dalam kehidupanku sebagai seorang insan bergelar mahasiswa.. apa lagi, tentang final exam la. Kini, ku tidak lagi bertempat di kolej kediaman dan statusku kini bergelar pelajar ‘non campus resident’. Jadi, tidak dapat ku menjelaskan apa yang terdapat dalam kolej kolej kediaman seperti yang terdapat dalam blog lepas ku.. tidak lagi ku Nampak bilik bilik yang dicerahi lampu lampu meja dimana semua pelajar menunjukkan sikap paling positif iaitu sikap rajin yang melampau. Namun, ku masih berminat berkongsi dengan anda semua tentang apa yang ku rasa ketika masa masa genting begini.

Alrite, peperiksaan akhir kian menghampiri dan sebenarnya ia hanya beberapa hari lagi. In fact, there are already some students going thru it now. Anyway, apa yang sebenarnya dibincangkan pada blog kali ini bukan lagi pasal pelajar pelajar lain, tetapi diriku, Eddie Quah. ku maha mengetahui yang peperiksaan akhir kini menjelang namun, tiada hajat untuk ku berbuat apa-apa. Terdapat banyak lagi subjek yang belum ku menelaah dan belum lagi ku mengulangkajinya. Aku sedar dan aku mengetahui.. tetapi, dimanakah keazamanku? Dimana kekuatanku? Serta dimana konsentrasiku? Aku binggung… Sebenarnya, aku pun tidak tahu apa masalahku . dalam bab bab akdemik ni, memang aku lembab sikit.. tapi.. setiap kali menjelang peperiksaan, hatiku resah, hatiku gelisah.. tapi tiada motivasi pun untuk berbuat sesuatu. That’s the problem with Eddie Quah.

Beberapa hari ini, ku cuba berkawan dengan segala buku-bukuku dan nota-notaku. Dgn penuh semangat yang berkobar kobar membakar dalam diriku menyelak helaian pertama buku itu. I don’t know whether u blif it or not, but sebaik saja buku itu diselak, segelas air… eh,? Bukan… satu tong air bagaikan disimbah pada diriku lalu memadamkan api semangatku. Sangat pantas!! Bagaikan kilat dipanah ke bumi. Buku kemudiannya ditutup dan buku lain yang dibuka.. (FaceBook) hahaha,(habis? Kamu orang fikir buku apa?) wakaka,,, tak cakap pun korang tak tahu, sebaik facebook dibuka, fulamak, mata yang tadi terkulai layu macam bunga layu kembali fresh macam sayur sayur dekat Cameron highland dan kundasang. Fresh gila. Dengan itu , secara automatik hajat untuk mengulangkaji pelajaran tidak lagi tertera dalam fikiran justeru itu ia lenyap begitu sahaja. Betapa mengagumkan … pelik, tapi benar… percayalah… :P

Dengan ini, saya berharap yang saya mendapat kekuatan untuk betul betul duduk dan mula belajar, .. saya mesti melakukannya demi masa depan ku, demi keluargaku, dan demi semua orang disekelilingku. Dengan keazaman baru ini, ku mahu bangkit. Dan berdepan dgn peperiksaan akhir dengan penuh persediaan. Disini juga, ku ingin berdoa kepada rakan rakan semua tak mengira dimana jua anda berada, selamat maju jaya dan bersama- sama kita berjuang demi masa depan kami semua, demi nusa, bangsa dan Negara. (wah.. sudah berubah kepada bentuk ucapan berpatriotik pula).. haha.. good luck in finals sem1 sesi 2008/2009~~

SEAFOOD~~~~

2009-10-18T12:09:00.000+08:00

Oh my, I had my chance to enjoy seafood. Thanks to a senior who willing and kind enough to bring us to enjoy the meal. It is consider cheap compare to other seafood restaurants in KK and is for sure affordable for students like us. Forgetting telling u guys the name of the restaurant.. its called ‘welcome seafood restaurant’ the location, I myself not very sure.. sumwhere near the Beverly area..

Talking bout the restaurant, its abit pissing us off coz the place is so crowded with customer and we need to wait for almost half hour before we could get our sits. (maybe its coz of the low price and delicious food). Anyway.. if I ever will go there again, I’ll be very early.

So, I don’t hv the opportunity to snap the food we ordered, as all of us already being in starving mood and once the food came…. (u know wat happened) ~~~

Anyway, briefly we had crabs, shrimps, some sort of shells creatures and the restaurant’s specialty tofu. It’s a good one though,, and we surely had ourselves filled… no comment but just a thumbs up. 

So, looking forward to another good place for dining… thanks once again to Mr.Sim who brought me there and hv an eye opening experience,

Perasaan Rindu ...

2009-09-25T16:48:00.000+08:00

          Rindu… perasaan yang ku pikul setiap kali berpisah dengan mu. Dengan hati yang berat antara mahu tak mahu ku tetap akan membawa kerinduan ini bersamaku. Setiap kali berjauhan dengannya pasti perasaan rindu ini timbul dan tiada cara lain yang ku mampu buat kecuali menatap gambar wajah mu yang ku bawa kemana sahaja ku berada.

          Adakalanya, kerinduan yang melampau akan mencetuskan satu phenomena dalam diri dimana diriku mahukan perhatian dari mu demi mengubati perasaan rindu ku. Namun, semakin banyak yang diharapkan semakin resah diriku di buat dan secara tidak langsung mengakibatkan satu ganguan terhadap orang tersayang. Gangguan ini akhirnya mencetuskan satu perbalahan antara dua insan yang saling mencintai… dan perbalahan inilah yang paling ku tidak harap ia berlaku.. :)
          Kini, kerinduan ku kini terhadapmu semakin meninggi dan aku pasti kerinduan ini pasti akan terubat sebaik sahaja ku pulang menemuimu.. ku yakin, dan ku percaya… kerinduan ini akan ku jadikan motivasi serta pedoman untuk ku bergerak dengan lebih jauh dalam kehidupan.
          Oleh itu, rindu … rindu,,,, dan rindu… hanyalah satu perasaan yang ku hadapi hampir setiap detik jantungku berdegup.. setiap kali darah mengalir… malah setiap kali bernafas… terima kasih.. :)

Ps: this is just a shout out from myself and hopefully the person u all miss will miss u all as well.. so, hope everyone be well and happy always.

The Rubiks Cube..

2009-09-21T13:57:00.000+08:00

Alright.. Here is another chapter of my blogie.. hehe.. So, today’s topic as u all can see up there is about Rubik cube..

So, this little 3x3 cube had actually gained my attention since I was a 10 years old kid. And i tried my very best on that time to solve this little toy. Unfortunately, too bad... I kind of gave up on it so I thought I was not going to solve this cube for the rest of my life..

12 years had gone and now I’m a grown up 22 years old guy... This little toy has come to hunt me once again. I actually saw this cubes everywhere.. It seems this little toy become popular once again. Now it came in not only the 3x3 size but it also have 5x5, 7x7 and even came with the unbelievable shapes and sizes. I was kind of terrified at 1st as these thing is everywhere... even my friends some of them are having it and playing with it... oh my god.... its scary though.. haha..

Surprisingly.. I went to get one for myself.. And I told myself that I will solve this toy no matter what. I browse through the internet (you tube) on how to solve the Rubik’s cube and I learnt it in one night.. I followed the steps and guess what???? I finally made it!!!! I finally solved the little toy that hunt me for years.. I finally own it... hahaha.. Very happy with it though.. So I practice, practice and practice and now I am kind of good at it just that need to improve on the speed though..

What i can say about this little toy is... it is not that difficult once u know all the keys to it.. And it can be pretty easy.. :) so, everybody.. Try to have one of your own and start solving cubes... haha.. it’s fun and who knows? U might amaze someone by solving it.. Good luck!!

'dia menatap seluruh tubuhku, dilihatnya setiap inci susuk tubuhku, merebahkan diri dan mula mencucuk dan menghisap. setelah puas terus meniggalkan ku begitu sahaja... ku bangun dan ku rimas.. terasa sakit dan gatal.. celaka kau................. MOSQUITO!!!!!!!!"

"satu perasaan yang terlalu ku kenal... perasaan ini akan datang sekali sekala lalu membuatku mempunyai keinginan yang begitu kuat untuk tidak memikirkan segalanya demi membuatnya. ku pasrah, ku tak dapat menahan lagi, denyutan jantung bertambah kencang, peluh dingin mula membasahi pipi.. kini kami telah berada di tempat yang sepatutnya.. marilah.. mulakan lah... aku datang!!!!! oh TANDAS!!! ah...lega~~"

FINAL exam?

Salam sejahtera, kali ini, blog saya diceritakan dalam bahasa melayu dan ia sebenarnya tidak mempunyai apa apa alasan yang istimewa untuk tindakan saya ini. Cuma, bahasa inggeris saya tidak begitu bagus dan mungkin saya lebih selesa jika saya berbahasa melayu. Antara kamu semua mungkin tertanya tanya mengapa tidak menulisnya dengan bahasa cina sahaja? Hahaha.. dengan segala kesalnya bahawa saya langsung tidak mengetahui bagaimana untuk bertulis dalam bahasa cina. Menuturnya pun terasa kesulitan yang amat sangat. Tetapi syukurlah, semenjak saya bertapak di universiti sememangnya dialek mandarin saya semakin maju. Sedikit sebanyak adalah jasa rakan rakan saya di university ini. Walaupun saya lebih selesa bertutur dalam dialek kantonis dan hokkien, tetapi kadang kala mandarin juga digunakan memandangkan bahasa cina kini semakin luas penggunaannya. Ok la, terlalu banyak saya merepek. Baiklah, tajuk perbincangan pada kali ini (walaupun hanya blog ke-2) adalah bertajuk ‘peperiksan akhir’.
Oh no.. hanya mendengar tajuknya telah membunuh niat semua pembaca untuk terus membaca keluhan saya ini. Tetapi wahai pembaca semua.. bersabarlah kerana apa yang dibincangkan mungkin dapat membuka suara hati anda semua. Ok… 20 april 2009.. bermulanya detik detik peperiksan akhir di university Malaysia sabah ini. Walaupun jam sudah menunjukkan 3 pagi tetapi kebanyakan bilik bilik di setiap blok kediaman begitu cerah diterangi lampu meja pelajar. Disinilah setiap pelajar menunjukkan sikap yang paling positif iaitu sikap rajin yang tidak pernah ditunjukkan. Haha. Pelajar yang rajin sebelum ini bertambah rajin dan pelajar yang tidak berapa rajin dahulunya tetiba berlagak rajin dan mungkin terlebih rajin sehinggakan kerajinannya mendahului pelajar yang dahulunya rajin.(mungkin confuse sedikit dengan ayatku ini). Mungkin inilah yang dikatakan pembelajaran “last minute” sebelum berdepan dengan peperiksaan. Itulah lumrah pelajar university.. setiap kali menjelang musim peperiksaan, pelajar pelajar universiti seperti mendapat kuasa tertentu entah dari mana.. mereka boleh mengabaikan waktu tidur mereka walaupun tidur adalah salah satu nikmat hidup bagi mereka. Pelajar mampu belajar 3 hari berturut turut tanpa tidur yang mencukupi dan menuju ke dewan peperiksaan dengan semangat. Kemudian belajar lagi dan lagi untuk kertas yang seterusnya. Saya langsung tidak mengetahui apa yang dilakukan oleh golongan pelajar tersebut. Yang peliknya, saya langsung tidak mendapat kuasa itu sebaliknya kuasa lain yang saya miliki. Sedangkan pelajar lain boleh belajar tanpa berehat, tetapi kuasa yang ku miliki cukup luar biasa. Apabila ku mula belajar, dengan pantasnya mataku terasa letih dan rasa mengantuk boleh dirasakan dengan sekelip mata. Sebaik sahaja muka halaman pertama diselak ku terus menguap. Halaman yang kedua saya telahpun menggosok mata dan tidak sampai halaman yang kelima, ku dapat nampak diriku telah bergolek atas katilku yang empuk dan selesa ditemani bantal bantal ku. Pelik. Terlalu pelik.. kuasa inilah yang ku dapat apabila menjelang peperiksaan. sigh.. kalau inilah yang ku lakukan, tidak tercapailah hasrat ku untuk cemerlang dalam peperiksaan. cukup menyedihkan walaupun saya begitu gembira berbaring atas katilku.
Sebaik sahaja melangkah dalam dewan peperiksaan, para pelajar mula muntahkan segala ilmu yang didapati namun saya hanya mampu melelehkan air liur diatas meja peperiksaan (tidur). tetapi adalah begitu memeranjatkan bahawa saya adalah antara pelajar yang terawal keluar dari dewan peperiksaan. bukan kerana saya telah habis menjawab tetapi saya tidak tahu jawab sehinggakan saya hantarkan kertas yang kosong. Balik ke asrama pun bukannya belajar tetapi tidur adalah aktivitiku. Jadi, disinilah sahaja keluhan saya pada kali ini dan berharap semua rakan rakan saya Berjaya dalam peperiksaan dan dalam kehidupan. Untuk saya sendiri, saya berharap dapat doa dan motivasi dari rakan rakan semua untuk mendapatkan kuasa yang lebih hebat.. hahaha…

Good luck everyone. Happy exam-ing.. :)

My very 1st time

2008-08-09T02:59:00.000+08:00

seeing the tittle above, i guess most of the readers know what i meant..

my very 1st time.. my 1st time for what? :) that's rite.. my 1st time to actually start my own blog.

i was thinking to write a blog of my own since like... 2 years ago.. and i dont really got to do it until now.. so, i already make my 1st step in order to fulfill my desire of blogging..

erm.. actually, there's something that stops me from writing blogs and the problem still occur till now... which is my language.. my english sucks and very poor.. and that actualy pulling me back due to my lack of self confidence.. u might be thinking why am i doin this now... not to say my english language is getting better, but somehow i guess i need to write in order to improve my language and from time to time i hope i can see the improvement is my blogs... so, pls help me with it ok? haha :)

so, where shall we begin? i dont know... maybe telling something regarding to myself?

i'm now currently studying in UMS (Universiti Malaysia Sabah) taking tourism management in the school of business and economics. 2nd year student...

i would say university life is tough.. but enjoyable... u got to learn new stuff every single day. meeting new ppl and experiencing something other ppl who actually dont get to experience it.

my mummy alwiz tell me this which is "a person is actually very fortunate to undergo a university life and must enjoy life. ", which i thought its quite true. that's why, i keep on telling myself to enjoy life to the fullest..

let me just briefly express what i actually felt about university.... many ppl here think that university is just a place to upgrade ur education level... to study and study and in the end earning a certificate... well.. its true and no doubt many ppl still think that way...

as for myself... i personaly feels that university life is not just all bout studies... (maybe i'm not good in academic, thats why this thinking slips into my mind)... :) as i was saying earlier... uni life should be enjoy and to be experience in a different way.. so, let me put it this way... uni life is a place we actually decide our own path... where we wanna go in the end of our study.. what we wanna be. thats uni... that is why... until now, i'm still scratching my head thinking why ppl study so hard and they almost got no time for themselve. their daily routine is u wake up in the morning, u eat ur meals, u study, and u sleep.. and these continues till ur graduation day with a highly 1st class honour holder.... congratulation to u and at the same time felt sorry for the past few years u've been working for. coz, u earn ur certs, but u wasted ur few years life...

:) anyway.. maybe thats makes me different from others or in other words, i'm more useless than the others. i do study hard but i play even harder... that's me... eddie quah.. haha

actually, theres more i wanna share but i guess i'm out of words to put in and hopefully i will continue writting this blog and keep doing it. so, till next time and have a nice day :)
