small town kid in big city??

wow...it's been a week already since i left sp for a new life here over in kl...like the title says, i'm a mall town guy from sungai petani..not sure if many ppl have actually heard of such a place but now i'm in KL the capital of M'sia...Far cry from the easy,relaxed life in sp...where everything is so nearby and easy to get done...However everything has its pros and cons...Being in kl will definitely give me new experiences and opportunities in life...okok..let me now talk bout college life...it's been pretty ok so far but its been abit hectic...classes are mostly until 4...and this is without LAN classes still..when LAN starts i'll prob be goin back at 6 on certain days...this is my first time online since i came to kl..havent had internet access until now..just applied for computer access at college so can be online everyday after this at college..60 bucks for usage of pc with internet access at college for 1 sem...seems ok..well made a couple of frens already at college...they're real friendly ppl...hoping to meet more frens soon though...like a senior told me al the frens here at college are a friend's fren....ppl at college are basically pretty friendly...i actually met a guy from someone from around sp...i knew him from tuition last time so i'm not alone from sp...met a few ppl from ipoh, and the rest are mostly from around kl...chicks here are quite pretty as well..haha..about classes..my chem and maths teacher is pretty ok...i've got two fmaths teachers...my stats teacher is quite ok so far..my C3/C4 teacher on the other hand is abit fast and i dont really understand that well..but we'll see how that goes...my physics teacher pulak reminds me of my terrible fizik teacher in school last time...i was lucky i went for tuition in secondary school otherwise i dont know what i would have got for my physics last time in spm....
but it's still early days i guess...wait and see i guess,...classes on tuesdays are the worse..too hectic..i've got classes from 8-4 with only 1 hour of break from 10-11...and to make it worse the whole day is learning maths only...MATHS only i repeat...i usually sleep after i come back..headache..haha...i've got 2 hours of maths and 5 hours of fmaths...thats alot...but in college there's a DSA room that has astro and a pool table as well as fusbal table so it's pretty ok...
spend my time in between classes there...basically life here is pretty ok...but there's no place like home i guess..haha..anyways got 3 weeks hols coming up in august..so will be abck in sp then..
oh forget to mention..i tried to learn to swim yesterday...hahah..terrible experience...my cousin's kid who's in std 5 was teaching me,,,hahha..embarassing though..but i have to learn how to swim...if this doesnt work i'll prob take classes..coz i need to learn..it's a must to survive in the world next time...my cousin's kid is like really good at swimming though..haha..so we'll see how this goes as well...well thats all for now...will prob post another one by next week i think...

leaving sp ...thoughts and feelings?

Having always wanted to get out of sp for such a long time i'll finally be leaving sp to further my studies in KL.However thinking of all the good things i'll be leaving behind i'm sure gonna miss sp as boring as it may be.Life was really kinda carefree back here. But without change one cannot fully evolve into something better.Thus the time has come to move on and shape the future.It has been a busy day today basically packing alot of stuff and getting some stuff done for my parents. Was supposed to go watch War of The Worlds but i still haven't gone to watch it. Crap. And i haven't even watched initial D yet.But from what i heard war of the worlds has a crappy ending but it's worth the watch for the effects and so on. And initial D was quite ok apart from some bad acting by Jay chou although i still think he's a great singer nonetheless..However today i managed to do something i havent done in a long time..went out for dinner with san nien and vishnu at pizza hut today... so good of them to call me out for kinda of a farewell dinner...we talked for bout two hours while eating...great time..so good to catch on stuff with them and talk bout their lives at UTP...seems like they're having a great time there though...crap wish i got UTP now..could be having fun with them then...petronas didnt even wanna give me an interview..haiz..terrible..wat to do..will see how things go anyways...anyways about the packing part today only i started finding my bags and packing the stuff and guess wat i've almost finished packing all the stuff..haha..good huh.. just abit more to do tomolo then i'm all set..Off to KL then the centre of M'sia.Got lots of things to do there...got to learn to find my way around there and possibly find ways to save money down there and not spend too much money...must learn to be thrifty,good at time management and most importantly find good places to eat!! haha..cannot survive without good food and enough of my beauty sleep i guess.. am looking forward to the enviroment though..Being at college hopefully will be able to meet some new friends and possibly meet up with all my frens in kl as soon as possible and keep in touch with those in sp still and elsewhere of course...Goin to miss all the playing football here though and playing ps and watching pirated movies...hahaa..fun times...wish i was paid to just sit at home and relax,go play football , go out with frens and so on..what a life that would be...and yearly perks of that particular job would be travelling around the world..hahah ..another of my dream job apart from being a professional mattress tester(so i may sleep as much as i want), UFO scientist or even working with boeing or airbus...Also i hope that in the upcoming G8 somehow some sense is put into the heads of some brainless leaders and help come up with a plan to overcome poverty and AIDS in Africa and other parts of the world as well as coming to an agreement to curb global warming...I read a few days ago in the papers that Bush has said there will be no favours to Blair bout helping push for a petition to counter global warming ...He doesnt owe any favours to blair to be honest he owes it to the people of the world...He has seriously made some bad decisions in his time at office that has affected the world although it was the al-qaeda who may have started it first by bringing down WTC... but it didnt justify the attack on Iraq.. however i'm not saying the attack didnt bring anything good..but the bad effects of the war there definitely outweighed the good effects of it...especially the part of not finding any WMD's there when the reason for attacking Iraq was that were WMD's there...Haiz..it's a funny world nowadays....Therefore i urge those who are able to lend a hand in helping those AIDS and poverty victims...ot maybe go to ONE ... Make a difference while it still matters...This may be my second last post for a long time...coz i wont be having easy access to pc in kl so to all frens out there good luck in watever u are doin and take care...

when i was young i wanted to be older, now i wish i could go back...

when i was younger i couldn't wait to grow up... coz my bro and sis could do so many things i couldnt...for example when i was in primary school i wanted to cycle to school coz my bro and sis did that..but i was too small...later on i did cycle to school...but now i wished i was small..it wont be tiring to go to school..coz wouldnt have to pedal all the way...then later on in secondary school, i wanted to go out at nights...like my bro ....eventually when i got older i did go out also..this was fun however...no wishing to becoming younger... when i was small i also wished i was older..coz would get more pocket money.. Only then would i realise that when i was older ...more responsibilities came upon me as well...exams weren't as easy as they were b4... there were rules that applied to goin out and all... i couldnt get everything i wanted .... then of course there were girl probs... teenage life.... school sucked..frens were great though... But now after everything i'm at a crossroads in life i guess... i'm 18 now..finished spm..did ok in it..didnt get any scholarships though..was distraught by that...moved on though..now i'm goin to leave home for the first time to go somewhere else and really study i mean..i've away from home for holidays on my own and all but ..this is different.... after spm..i couldnt wait to get out of sp...the centre of boredome in my life was what i thought..however now after all has come and gone...i will really miss sp... SP wasnt that bad actually....A lot of frens here...everyday i would relax after spm..
watch tv, play ps2 , online..... i wont be able to do much of this in kl..will really miss that..and of course family..though u may at first think i wont miss them a bit...but in the end when u're actually goin u'll surely miss them..and frens of course and the memories in sp and school....But that's how life is.. you've got to move on,..you cant stay put in one place...otherwise you wont become something more than you already are... you can't expect to be the person you want to be in life just be taking the easy path in life.... you need to climb a mountain to get to the top...
someone's goin to do it...why not you..so this thurs will be leaving home..for kl...i go with mixed feelings but no regrets...only by doin this, will i be more independant and make something of myself..just my thoughts...
