New Meat Coming Through.
...I got my liscence!! :'D
So chinese... Well to tell you the truth, it's no official driver's liscence, just a probationary one for 2 years until I can get the official one. But no matter, now I can take the Saga out and drive wherever and whenever I want to! :D
I profusely apologize for not updating in such a long time, due to time constraints and experiencing my new life at campus. So far, I'm loving it :] For now that is, before large amounts of assignments will creep and leap on my back and pin me to the ground, wtf. Speaking of assignments, I've two so far. One from Economics and the other from EALD.
SPEAKING OF EALD (bahaha, repetitive, I am) Today was my first lesson with the ever expecting (he's not preggo, aight!) Mister J! His full name is Dwijendra Menon (How and why I mentioned, let alone remember his full name is a mystery.) I wonder if he has any relations with my former english teacher back in highschool, Mrs. Leela MENON 8D.
ANYHOO, back to Mister J. As a matter of fact, I think I'll call him 'Miss J' from behind his back >D I mean come on, I think it's a mere coincidence, the guy is already queer! Haha, not in a homophobic way because I do embrace and accept openly gay people for who they are. AND! Is it me or are men with their name J's tend to be more...queer? For example:
Exhibit A : J. Alexander, a.k.a. 'Miss J'
*American Model
*TV Personality
*Runway Coach
*RUMORED to be gay
*Yet is an active father and has a SON!
Exhibit B : Jay 'Mister J' Manuel
*Canadian make-up artist
*Fashion photographer
*ALSO a model
*Know for his flair and flamboyant personality on TV shows
I think that supports my theory on men with the name 'J' tend to be queer in personality. But then again, it's all just a coincidence, right?

Orientation Day.
Yesterday was Orientation Day. A day where former high school students become what is now a college student. And to start that, I'm now an official Sunway University College student.
I woke up early and my dad sent me to campus and reached at around 9 o'clock or so. I and the other AUSMAT students head for the registry section, where we were given a file with rules/regulation, Orientation Day schedule, library guide, etc. Whilst at the registry, there were some friendly people who stretched their hands out and we got to know each other. Fuh! Luckily I've made some contact >_O I made a new friend, her name is Amylea. She's from Kelantan, lives in a nearby hostel and she's here to do medicine once she finishes AUSMAT. I'll post up a picture of her when I get the chance ;)
As we got to know each other, we went to the MPH (Multi Purpose Hall). Our orientation was held there and we got to know the 'principal of the campus'. I don't think you call it principal considered that you're not in school anymore, but I'll find out the word later lah.
The hall was huuuuuuuuuuge o__o compared to Seafield's. At the time they gave us talks about the library, safety, rules, computer labs, and etc. Then we had a 2 hour break before the next brief on our AUSMAT programme. Killing time, I went to Pyramid with Amylea to help out her SIM Card. When we came back we went to a seminar room where we had our brief presentation on the subjects offered in the course. These are the one's I'll be taking :
Advanced English
Biology
Chemistry
Discrete Mathematics
Economics
I'm abit concerned on english though. They have that AND EALD (English as an Additional Language/Dialect) . EALD focuses on the language whereas Advanced English is more to critical thinking. You get to do journalism, read reviews, plays, literature, critiques and such and such. Plus in EALD, they lecturer seems to be...flamboyant x)
Other than that, today I had my first lessons, and made 2 new friends ^_^ Hopefully we'll be able to get close. AAAAAAAANNNNNNDDDDD.....--
To Be Continued..

Just Take The Wheel.
I passed JPJ Test!
-Bangga Alone-
Now I am currently waiting for my P-Liscence untill next week or so.
How did it go?
Well first off, went to Metro via transport provided by the Driving School I went. Took my JPJ File and waited for my giliran which was under the code "69 Hijau" When they called me, I drove the little red kancil up the hill which was the first task. I had a problem with the car I was using because the clutch,engine and gear paddle were all not that efficient. But nonetheless I went up the hill smoothly. Then, it was the second task which is parking the vehicle. My legs were shaking and constantly remembering what to do when parking, which tiang must face where, which direction should I turn step by step. However, I've passed the parking task as well. Then for the last task is the 'Penjuru' test which I think might be another word for dead end. This was no problem for me of course. All in all, I've successfully passed all three task which were under Bahagian II!
Then, it was time to fo Bahagian III, aka Jalan Raya Test, aka aka Route Test. There are 3 routes and you have to remember each and every one of them. As I waited for my turn, my heart couldn't stay still (and uhh no, there were no hotties out there). It was terribly annoying, so I did this personal mantra of mine by repeating the sentence 'Calm Blue Ocean' so that my heart and mind could be at ease. Then came my turn. I got in, the JPJ Official was a male, first thing I noticed was his name, called Selamat. (Coincidence rather?) Before driving, I did all 6 pre-drive check up which consist of, in orderly manner, Side & rear view mirrow, seatbelt, free gear, signal, wiper, and honk. All was going perfectly except this one part where I had to adjust the left side view mirror but the Official told me not to and to just do it in haste. Hence I did. Off all the 3 routes, he chose the 3rd one, I felt highly relieved because Route 3 is the shortest way round. As I drove on the road, the car was silent, there were little or no conversations between me and the Official. There was however one time where I accidentally stopped the engine, at that moment my mind went all 'f*ck! f*ck! f*ck! I'm gonna f*cking fail!' After the entire Jalanraya test, the Official gave me my result slip. I had no clue whatsover so I turned into one of the Metro workers there and said those 2 heavenly words, 'You passed!' :DDD
Now, I'm waiting for my Probationary (P-Liscence which may be ready within the next week. Can't wait to take the wheel! :)

Back, Busy and Blessed.
Everett Harp performance. I was totally bushed last night returning from Jakarta. This is just a picture preview from the trip I had at Jakarta. Will put up more pictures soon. Not to mention my week is busy busy busy. Just had my 2nd last driving lesson today. God, I SUCK at parking!! Might as well label me as Worst.Park.Driver.Ever., make it into a huge banner and staple it over my face or forehead. -__-
What can I say about Jakarta? It was a wonderful/sad/fun/thrilling/exciting/pitiful/unforgettable experience I've ever had! I've took plenty of pictures, more than a 150! But for now I'm just gonna do a short post. Will blog more on it later.
And what's more, I know y'all former form 5-es of 2007 are looking oh-so-forward to tomorrow. Because tomorrow is THE DAY where we either make it or brake it, a certain friend of mine called it a 'Prepare To Kill Yourself Day', which is already the case! xP Well, I wish good luck to all of you reading this. Because no matter what grade is gonna appear on a sheet of paper, life goes on because there's so much more than just exams and papers and grades and exams and textbooks and studies and shit. (Yes, I'm well aware that I've mentioned the word exams twice.) As of right now, I'm feeling all neutral while the others are feeling either panicky or nervous but not me, because I'm trying to not get any emotional disturbances. Although I really really really REELY hope I'll get a credit for both BM and Agama at the least so that I can totally go into the University I want. >__<
On the good side, I get to meet all my lovely friends at high school. Can't wait to give them my souvenirs from Jakarta. They'll totally love it! :D
On the bad side, I have JPJ Test on the day after! Gah!! How I'm gonna concentrate, is still a mystery to me.
Well, 'till here then. Gonna listen to new and melodious indonesian band cd's I got from there :) Ta!

A Lawful Encounter.
Brush with the law
- idiomatic term
Definition : A brief encounter or experience with the police because of a crime
Explanation : Usually used when talking about minor legal offences
WOWIE!! Story of the day today, here's how it all began:
After my dad went out to send my sister to her tuition, he was planning to head to Rembau for some political campaign. (Need I mention that he would pay us 20 bucks if we were to come with him?!) Hehe, well I full heartedly decline his request because at this time of the year, I'll want to have nothing to do with the political situation right now. Reasons? I've got my own and you don't need to know. (Mane tau ada some government official reading this very post!)
Anyhoo!! After he and my sis went out, I was bored out of my mind hence I had the idea of taking the manual satria out for a drive, a car my uncle lended to me some weeks ago. As I was taking the car out, I invited the maid to go for a spin, and she pleasantly agreed.
THEN!
After just mere 5 minutes of driving away from the house, a police car came in from behind. Fuck fuck fuck!, my mind went. There were two cops and one of them asked me to pull over. I did and he sternly asked for my IC and Driver's Liscence. At the time, I didn't have it with me, so I humbly asked the two so that I can drive the car back to the house to get those 2 documents. Which we did. And then another problem surfaced, my MAID was in the car with me! And the thing is, foreign workers have to have documents to prove that they're not illegal immigrants. Fuck fuck fuck, my mind went again. How the hell am I gonna turn up her documents? I know, I'll snap my fingers and my genie will poof 'em up for me (yea right, highly unlikely)
After producing my IC and Driver's Liscence to the cops, they gave me a warning NOT to do this again. Oh my God, Alhamdulillah because they claimed that they could have added 20 demerit points to my Liscence (mind you I had my LEARNER'S DRIVING LISCENCE) and that's an automated action of failing my liscence AND they could have taken my maid away and bring her to the police station until my MOM can pick her up. All those things COULD have happened! But instead they chose to warn me than to saman me, hence they left. I think God's just poking me and I guess he trying to teach me a lesson. And I'm glad I did! All with a single brush with the law.

Results & Drive.
O______________________O!! Judgement Day Y'All!!!
Whoa hoh! Can't believe it. This will either make me...or brake me. Gotta pray to Allah EXTRA HARD! x)
On the other hand....
Went to Metro Driving Academy...after a whole month! Reason, February was already full house, so I had to book my driving lessons at an early March. Today was OK, I got the same instructor, Mr. Juhari. Kinda like my maternal grandpa, only it's spelt Johari, with an 'O'. He's alright, not too strict, not too soft. Plus!
I've obtained my L-Liscence! Which is equivalent to Learner's Permit, or I dunno how you call it. I've got 2 more classes to go, next Tuesday and Wednesday and then comes the JPJ Test on Thursday. Okay, gonna pray twice triple as hard to God that everything will go smoothly! I hope!
