I've been tagged again...

It has been a long time since I last updated my blog, didn't realize that I've been tagged again by the same fellow two times ago, Philip Chan.
Anyway, I think this time's one is a bit nonsense, so I will answer only the front part, which I think is more meaningful.
Here goes...

Top 5 presents u wish for:
1) Simply just some nice cards or nice comments from my friends. (which to my disappointment, not many of them do that...)
2) A chance to fulfill my musician dream.
3) Tickets to visit other parts of the world. (Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Switzerland, United States,....)
4) A brand new alto-saxophone.
5) A nice digital camera.

Person who tagged me - Philip Chan

5 impressions:
1) Cheerful little boy.
2) Still quite pure and innocent. (at least I think so...)
3) Materialistic. (most people do..)
4) Not really care much of a friendship.
5) Easily be affected by other people.


Most memorable thing done or given
errmm.... can't think of a good one...

Most memorable words said:
"When people ask me who's my best friend, I will think of u.."
Well, I doubt it...

If he becomes my lover, I would..
de.... -_-""

If he becomes my enemy, the reason would be..
He backstabbing me? Lie to me? Didn't really think of that...


People who I would like to know how they feel about me..
1) My parents. (I have problem interacting with them..)
2) My ex-GF and my ex-"daughters".
3) The girls I like.
4) Philip. (I try to consider him as my best friend in UTP, but he always disappoints me..)
5) My coursemates. (Jasmitt, Hwee Huat, Renae, Amy, Cally, Kuhan,....)
6) The Chinese gang in UTP. (Jin Ming, Peow, Jia Haur, Tiat Dong, Aaron, Chin Leong, Jing Zhi, Han Sze,....)
7) Yoon Yeh, Chang Hua, Bong, Edgar, Charles,....
8) The girls in my batch. (Kang, Vern, Mei Le, Siu Ying, Christine,....)
9) The Chinese Orchestra people.
10) My youth group members back in Bintulu.
11) All the other people I know.


As the other initial questions are worthless, I will not waste my time answering them.
However, I will really appreciate it if anyone can give me a feedback on how u feel about me.
It will really be a great help to improve my life here in UTP.
Hopefully I can have a better life in year 2008.
Happy New Year everyone! ^~^

Sincerely,
Raymond.

EDX 20

On 22^nd October 2007, around 10 a.m. in the morning, I was sitting alone at Pocket D In2Eat café, enjoying my morning break.
This guy named Billy suddenly approached me and asked, “Raymond, are u free now? Can u help to carry some tables from MPH ah?”
I thought it is just a few tables, so I said ok.
Then, after a while, Melissa rushed to me and said,
“Raymond, can u go to MPH now ah? To carry the tables...”
I was like, “Huh? How to go wor? Walk ah?”
Then u can guess the response I get lah…

I started to walk from In2Eat to MPH (for ur info, it’s not very near…).
When I reached Chancellor Complex, I saw Chong and some other guys there, then only I knew what they meant by “some” tables…
It’s around 200 TABLES!! WHAT THE F**K?!?
I was asking myself, “Why should I do this? I’m not a EDX member also…”
But then at the end, I helped out in carrying all the tables, and I don’t know why… (most probably because of kindness I think…)
After putting all the tables together, all of us walked back to In2Eat café. (again I want to remind u, it’s not very near…)

We met Mr. Rahmat in the EDX road show, and he belanja us makan pizza (Thanks again, Dai Lou! ^_^).

As we were sitting together talking while eating, I told the story of how I was ‘dragged’ into carrying the tables.
But then Mr. Rahmat reminded me something important.
I’ve been complaining all along that I’ve not been recruited into EDX committee, and that this might be a chance for me to contribute something.
I’ve always been expecting what other people could give me, but not otherwise. I’ve always over-viewed myself, but never learnt to be humble to the others.
I realized what I should do, and not for myself, but for EDX 20.

I was grateful when I was given a PR post in Logistic department (thanks to Chong).
The day before EDX event, I went for duty at the undercroft area.
Man, I never knew there’s such place under the Chancellor Complex.
As Chong brought me around the ‘tunnels’, I realized that UTP really is not a simple place.
I’ve never seen these paths before, and when I brought my friends later around the ‘tunnels’, they also had the same astonishment.
It is very easy to get lost there, especially if one is trying to use shortcut.
Anyway, it is a new experience to me, roaming around the underground area.

As everyone is preparing for EDX 20, I felt the serious atmosphere around the committee members.
Everyone is carrying out their duty and responsibility in each department, and everyone is doing their best in making EDX 20 a success.
As a PR, I can’t help but feel certain amount of pressure around me, especially when everyone is in stress mood.

The opening ceremony went out nice and smooth. The booths are all set up nicely and in order.
Among all the booths, the one I liked most is the Activities department’s booth.
Man, they really put some effort in decorating their panels.
Good job, Edgar. You’ve got yourself some very committed members, especially Yoon Yeh (the one in the picture).

EDX 20 event went on for 2 days smoothly.
I am not going to elaborate much about the whole event, but by the end of the day, it is a success.
I can see that everyone is relieved and satisfied with the outcome of the whole event.
Thanks to C&P department, the decoration of the stage is beautiful.
Thanks to the 'MedTech' department, the opening and closing ceremony is wonderful.
Thanks to F&B department, we have pizzas to eat for our lunch.
Thanks to Adjudication people, the judges are well taken care of.
Thanks to P&P department, the EDX t-shirt are very nice. (although I didn't get one.. T_T)
Thanks to the high-com. I don't know what they did, but still, we have to thank them.. =P

We had a small appreciation speech from our new advisor after the closing ceremony (forgot what's his name already...), and we were off to finish up our job.
Of course, the logistic department have to stack up all the tables and chairs again, but luckily we don't need to carry them back, or else I will definitely fade out.
After finished our job, I found myself involved in other departments' jobs. I helped R&A carried some stuff, helped P&S carried hampers, helped Activities department cleaning up their booths...
Well, it seems that I am a multi-PR, and I enjoyed being it. =)


EDX 20 is a great success, but nothing is perfect, there are some mistakes too.
I didn't went for the postmortem on Friday night, and according to my friend who went, I missed out a lot of 'excitement'..
(Mr. Rahmat, u know what I am talking about, right? =P)
There are something that I wanted to share with the committees, but never got the chance to do so.
From what I saw in EDX 20, all the members take their scoop of job seriously and with full responsibility.
There are of course some 'trash' members among all, but I am not going to talk about it here.
What I am trying to say is, EDX 20 committee members seems to over-emphasize on the value of responsibility, that they forgot other values such as tolerance and 'help-helping' (tolong-menolong).
*Sorry, my English not so good...

Some people asked why I helped other departments doing their jobs.
For instance, Activities department forgot to clean up their booth before they left, and there are scraps of papers and balloons all over the floor of the booth.
Someone from the committee called them to come back to clean up the booth, but I called Edgar and tell him that I will helped them clean it up.
It is true that if we look from the perspective of responsibility, one would say that it is the department's responsibility to fulfill their job, and their responsibility to make up for the mistakes they've done.
But then, if we look from the other perspective, is it so difficult just to clean up some straps of paper and balloons? Is responsibility that important that we forgot the value of kindliness?
I don't see responsibility as an ultimate value, and it certainly cannot be a fundamental value without the others.

I'm sorry if I might indirectly offend anyone, but I feel that I must say this.
EDX 20 couldn't achieved success with just full responsibility from the committee members.
This event is a success because we all worked together in making it a success.
Not one department could do it on their own, and definitely EDX wouldn't success with contribution from only one department.
Commitment is the keyword here, not responsibility.
We are working as EDX committees, not as Logistic member or P&P member.
Therefore, we have to work together hand-in-hand, cover others' back when they are lack, help others when they are weak, guide the others when they are lost.
We cannot do anything without one another, that's what I believed.

In a nutshell, I enjoyed being a part of EDX 20.
I made some new friends, and I learnt something new from them.
This event is indeed a success, not only as in terms of exposing students' potential in engineering design projects, but also in building bonds between the committee members.
I hoped that every one of the members will realized the importance of working together as one body, so that EDX will improve in the future.
I prayed that God bless this event, and that EDX may achieve greatness one day, and together we may share the pride of the success.

I'm just a nobody...

I feel like going nuts here...
Undeniable, UTP is a good place to study, but not a very happy place to live in.
My life had been quite messy during my secondary school time, and it was pretty screwed up since I made the decision to further my study here as a engineering student.

I've been here for three semesters, and I feel no less miserable.
During my Foundation year, it was still understandable that my female coursemates don't mix very much with me, who was the only Chemical Engineering Chinese guy that time.
Stepping into my 1st year of engineering this semester, I was looking forward for more non-Malay guys to accompany me.
But my hope immediately crushed, as those guys took even that little attention of me away with them.
I'm now just a nobody among my coursemates, and I doubt they'll even remember me if someone from outside asked them who's with them in the same class.

It's not that I purposely want to make a fuss about it, but I seriously doubt that I can finish my 4 years here in this kind of condition.
I felt a little bit more transparent everyday here in the campus.
Many people might think that I'm isolating myself, but actually I'm not..
How I wish that I have a group of my own, like many others else, eat and study together.
It's very ironic that many people are facing problem with peer group pressure and I don't have any, as there isn't even one group that I truly belongs to.
I know it's a lie if I say I have no friends here in UTP.
I did have some good friends, but then they have their own groups of friends, which I'm not a part of them.
Often when I tried to think of my future here as an engineering student, I saw nothing but dark and empty space.
I can't imagine the years to come, when the study will get tougher and tougher, and people like me will definitely fail without a group to study together.
That's pathetic...

I don't know why God put me in this place.
People are wearing mask every now and then, when they 'socialize' with other people.
I am also wearing a mask of my own, just that my mask is too horrible, that most people won't even care to look at it.
Seriously speaking, if I'm not a Christian, and if it's not for my family whom I loved with all my heart, suicide will be a very favorable thing for me.
I've thought of it too often, until I am so terrified that I might one day walk on that sinful path straight to the burning Hell.
May God find pity in me, and strengthen my heart against this kind of thought.

Sometimes I think I will rather live in my grandfather and my father's year, when people worked for only one purpose, that's to survive.
It might be hard, but then at least I won't have these much conflicts, these much battles within myself.
I felt so weary right now, and my soul longed to soar above the sky, away from all my loneliness and pain.
I only pray God for one thing now, either to show me a path to follow before my hope runs out, or take me into His kingdom, where I no more need to face the world.
I know my prayer is selfish, but that's the only thing I know, and the only thing I can do now...
May God bless me and my years to come.

国油大学华乐团

Initially, I wanted to write this whole blog in Chinese.
But since there are quite a number of 'bananas' in our orchestra team, I might as well write it in English.
I just wanna share about my experience as a player in UTP Chinese Orchestra.
I have no basic in Chinese musical before, but I found myself quite talented since I join the CO team. (ceh.. bangganya... :P)
Anyway, thanks to Gary for giving me the opportunity to be one of the players, and was able to perform for UTP Symphony Fest and also in ConvoFair.
It is my great honor and pleasure to be part of the CO team.
Before I started to say something emo, I just wanna introduce a few important people in Chinese Orchestra team.

1st of all, of course, is our expert teacher, Mr. Goh Suk Liang.
We called him 'senior', since he doesn't want to admit that he's already quite old.
He is a professional, I can say. He plays Maksim's "Bumblebee" using 'Er Hu', imagine that... We were all shocked when he 1st played it in the class. It was awesome....
I always thought Chinese Orchestra only play traditional Chinese songs.
He had me changed my mind about it.
The one I circled in the picture up there is our teacher lah.
See his style of playing, a total professional look..


Next, there are our beloved 'Boss', Gary (left)
and 'Lady Boss', Shu Hui (right).
(I don't know how to interpret 'Lao Ban Niang' in English. Haha... cincai lah...)

They are the busiest 'couple' everytime whenever a performance comes up.
Remember last time during Symphony Fest and ConvoFair, they really had a hard time organizing everything.
Thanks to them, our performances can be said as very successful.
Sometimes they are a bit strict, but of course, it's for the good of all of us.

After that, it is time to introduce some of our players.
There is my 'Lao Da', Xi Yi. He's a talented flutist and drummer, and also a very funny person.
Seriously speaking, I enjoy fooling around with him.
And also Jia Min 'Jie', whom the others called 'Chang Ying' (which means lalat), because she is playing 'Er Hu', and it always make humming sound like the lalat's.
She is a very pretty senior, but sometimes when she gets very frustrated and tension, she can be very fierce also...

There is also our conductor-Henry Yew (he is quite good in Chinese actually, but still, he is a 'banana'.. =P); our 'Yang Qing' player-Xiao Qi 'Jie'; 'Pi Pa'-cute Edrea; our multitasker-Chong; percussion-Guo Lin and Chin; the flutists-Melissa, San Yin and Ong; the most dedicated double-bass player-Pui Wei Jui; another two 'Er Hu' players-Wen Pin and Tnay; Melvin Tan and also our young 'cello mei'-Xuan Hui. Below are some pictures of them:















































Last but not least, the THREE MUSKETEERS.
It is very cool name for a 'humsap' gang, although in Chinese we called it for a different meaning. :P

The leader of the gang, the 'humsap King', Jesse Oliver, is also initially from my hometown.
He is very talented in music, which I envy very much.
He can play different kinds of musical instruments, a multitasker I called him.
I still remember last Symphony Fest, he ran from this edge of the stage from Chinese Orchestra, to the other end of the hall to play in UTP Keronchong, and then ran back here again.
Our boss was so panic when he suddenly disappeared, and he also, ran a big round the hall to find him. That was so cute....
Jesse's so-to-be GF is also a very talented violinist, I guess that's why they are so 'sepadan' with each other. ^o^

The 2nd seat of the 'humsap' gang, William Wan, comes from Penang.
He's already 22 yrs old, but his face doesn't look a bit like 22 yrs old man.
In fact, sometimes I feel like I look older than him.
I always wonder, is he just plainly baby-face? Or is he still immature? Or maybe it is the side effect of being too 'humsap'??
He also can be very feminine sometimes...
I don't understand, how come a person can be 'humsap' but also feminine at the same time??
Hmmm... that'll take some time for me to discover it...

The 3rd person, of course is me lah... =P
Don't misunderstand, the reason that we are in the 'humsap' gang doesn't really means that we are very 'humsap', just that we like to have some "man-and-man" conversations...
I want to state once again, I am a good guy. ^^

Since I am not a very well-rounded person in my batch, the orchestra members are just like family members to me.
I enjoyed every second in Chinese Orchestra, and I never regretted all the time I had spent in practicing.
We eat together, practice together, share jokes together, laugh together.
I felt like somehow if the whole world turns against me, I still have this bunch of friends by my side, to accompany me and to guide me.
It is such a wonderful thing that I am in this big family.
I just don't know how to express that feeling, the feeling as if I have returned to my home.
I wish that UTP Chinese Orchestra will keep on growing in the years to come, and the family will become bigger and stronger in our bonding.
I love you all! Thank you very much!
May God bless UTP Chinese Orchestra and all its members for the years to come. ^~^

Tiring days...

This is so far the most tiring week since the start of my 1st yr 1st semester.
I went to Ipoh two days continuously last weekend, one day for PC fair and another for church service.
I had came back to campus quite late in both days, and one whole day at Ipoh is really tiring, not to mention two...
I was exhausted already when I reached UTP that Sunday night, thus I went to sleep straight away.

Monday's 1st class is at 8am, so I had to wake up early and spent the whole day at lectures and tutorials.
That night, I had my Chinese Orchestra practice at 7.30pm.
Among the 6 songs that we are going to perform in ConvoFair next week, 4 songs are new to me.
Imagine that, I have 4 songs that I don't know how to play, but I am still one the players in the performance next week.
My God, we spent about 4 hours time practicing the songs.
As I am playing flute (Di Zi), I could feel my lips getting numb during the practice.

After the practice, I went back my room and started to work on my lab report, which I have to submit the next day.
I have 3 quizzes going in the morning, which I haven't study at all, and I don't had time to care.
I was damn tired when I finished the report, so I went straight to bed.

Tuesday morning, which is today, I had my 1st quiz of DE at 8am.
I cannot answer any of the questions, and I cannot even copy my friends' answers, because everyone got different questions.
So at the end, I passed up an empty sheet...
The next two quizzes (Phy. Chem & IMSE) were better, since everyone got the same questions and.... errmmm.... u know lah....

Luckily, today is considered over already...
I still have one more lab report and assignment for this week, which I planned to do tonight.
So, I guessed I'll just stop here today.
Happy reading! ^-^

New sem, new stress...

I got this title from one of my senior, and I totally agree with this phrase.
It's such a big mess during the 1st week of my 1st yr in UTP.
We have to arrange everything ourselves, including lectures, tutorials and lab.
We have to line up for one certain lecturer's class everyday, just because the seniors said he or she is good.
Frankly speaking, if it's not of my friends, I might still haven't figure out anything yet.

So far our timetable is consider okay already, just that in some days of a week we'll be so busy that we won't be able to go back to our room until evening time.
I wonder why ACS don't just fixed everybody's lecture time, so that we'll have less trouble in finding suitable slots for tutorial and lab.
When I told my seniors about my problems, the feedback I got is: "Wah... U now only 1st yr 1st sem also u complain. How are u going to do when u reach 2nd yr onwards?"
My conclusion is, undergraduate life is really not easy.

The Beauty of Pangkor Island

Before I came back to UTP to continue my 1st year study, I had went for a trip to Pangkor Island with my secondary schoolmates.
This trip was very relaxing and so nice that I was not willing to leave that place after two days staying there.

The five of us went to Lumut first using bus, then we use a boat over to Pangkor.
Although I've been to quite a number of islands before, the view of Pangkor didn't failed to amuse me.
We reached our destination in the afternoon, then we use rental car to our chalet.
I'm not sure whose fault is that, but we were somehow lost and met a dead end.
Then we have to turn back and follow another road, which lead us to our chalet in more than 20 minutes drive.
When we reached the place, we can't help but to 'admire' the talent of the photographer who took the picture of that place.
Our room and the swimming pool are not as appealing as what we saw earlier in the introduction voucher, and the actual size is much smaller than what we had thought.
But then we didn't complain much about it.

After our lunch at the nearby mamak stall, we went to the beautiful beach of Pangkor.
We bought beach shorts and slippers (I forgot to bring), get changed in our room, then go down into the water.
At first I thought I could swim around in that area, but then the seawater is too salty that I changed my mind.

Later in the afternoon, some of us went to play jet ski.
It was my first time jet-skiing, and it was damn syok.
The speed of the jet ski and the cool breeze of the wind made me temporarily think of nothing else...

After a whole afternoon soaking in the seawater, we bathe and went for dinner at a seafood restaurant.
The food was okay, but not as good as we expected.
Later then we went back to our chalet, as there is no other places to go at night.

The second day morning, we went for island hopping, which basically means stopping at bay by bay using boat.
The 'abang' driving the boat drove so fast that the speedboat rocked so fiercely, and the girls started to scream.
I felt funny, especially seeing them clutching close to each other, screaming everytime the boat hits the wave.
We stopped by some more famous bay, where we saw big rocks with very unique shapes, and also many colorful fishes at the snorkeling spot.
It is so amazing the work of God, who crafted such beauties in the nature.

After visiting the beautiful bays, we jump into the water for the last time before we left the island.
At around 1pm that day, we sent back our car, and it was the end of our Pangkor trip.
I still can't remember the peaceful feelings I had in this trip, especially the time I spent together with one of the girls whom I liked.
It is as if I had forget all my worries for that short period, my studies, my problems, everthing.
Everything seems so natural, so wonderful...
I would like to go there again during mid-semester break, to feel the wind, the sea, and the peace once more...

Call from Hong Kong

Wow... It has been so long since I last posted a blog.
It can't be help, because it's hard to get online here in my hometown.
My holidays have been half boring and half exciting.
Today, I would like to share some incident I've encountered in my holidays.

Some girl from Hong Kong called me one morning, saying that she's from a jewelry company in Hong Kong, and would like to do a survey with me.
After a short survey, she gave me a set of numbers, saying that my name will be put into some kind of lucky draw during their promotion at KL.
Then their true motive revealed slowly.
The girl called me several day later, inform me that I've won a trip to Las Vegas in the lucky draw.
I was surprised, but instead I asked her if I can change my prize into cash, as I can't go for the trip.
Then she say with my prize convert into our currency, I can get around RM270,000.
I was thinking, "Man, this is so fake..."
So, I decided to play with them.

I checked on the website, and found some other similar cases same as mine.
So, when they asked for my bank account number, I created a new account and give the number to them.
A few days later, they called me again, this time saying that I have to pay a number of RM2,000 for the insurance fee.
I asked them why wouldn't they draw out that amount of money from the one I won, then they expalined a whole bunch of their country's law, which I don't understand at all.
Then I say I don't have that much money, then surprisingly, they stop calling me.
A few days later, my friend received similar call from Hong Kong, just that this time it's an electronic company.

Here, I would like to advise all my friends.
If u receive such call, do not entertain them.
They are really a bunch of troublemaker, cause they will called u everyday, as if they do not have to pay for their telephone bill.
Please be cautious and aware of this kind of tricks.
That's all from me today, God bless. ^~^

Pirates of the Carribean 3

I watched this terrific movie yesterday at Ipoh Jaya Jusco.
The sound effect in the cinema really is good, especially the part where the two ships firing against each other in the whirlpool.
Wow, it was AWESOME!!!
I really like this kind of movies, where the computer effects was too real to be true.
While watching this movie, I can't help wondering, why this Jack Sparrow won't die one?
Even he did actually died in the 2nd epidsode, he revived again in the 3rd one.
And I don't know why these people so weird one...
Even though they try to kill each other, they still end up sailing in the same ship.


That Barbossa, who had betrayed Jack Sparrow once in the 1st episode, suddenly become an ally, and travel with the other crews to rescue Jack Sparrow.
Wasn't those two captains enemies?
Why would he cares to save him?!
And later they still keep on quarreling over the title of captain on the ship.
What a pathetic pair...


Davy Jones, that disgusting octopus-man suddenly have a lover, who turns out to be the goddess of the sea, Calypso.
When Calypso was freed from her human body, she just turned into a bunch of crabs, then jumps into the sea, and the sky started to rain, and there was a whirlpool in the middle of the sea between the pirates and soldiers.
That's all...
I was expecting more scenes of Davy Jones and Calypso, but then it turned out that they never have an ending.


Chou Lun Fa also participate in this movie as Sao Feng, one of the pirates' head in Singapore.
But then the best thing he can say is: "Welcome to Singapore."
What the heck?!
I bet at that time, Singapore still haven't exist yet...


Both William Turner and Elizabeth Swann become captains.
Elizabeth became the head of the pirates' heads, and all she do is standing beside Sao Feng when he died, which his death was really 'unfortunate'...
William Turner's father turns out to be an insane man, and William took Davy Jones' place and become the captain of the Dutchman.
I was waiting for him to turn into a monster, but then he still remain as a human.
They married in the middle of the war, and their marriage was really extraordinary...
The one who married them is Barbossa, can you imagine that?

As a conclusion, the whole movie was a mess, but still, it was very exciting.
I can't wait for Pirates of the Carribean 4 to come out.
I'm sure it will be much more better...

Finally...

Finally, my final exam is over...
It's finished in both terms of the exam and the results. Haha... =P
I guess I rather worry about it one month later, and that I enjoy myself now.
It's weird that even though it's already semester break, I don't feel much happier if compared with last semester.
I didn't feel particularly excited of going home, which I thought I will.
I guessed maybe it's like what Edgar said, maybe it's a sign that I've adapted myself here.

Sitting in my room, facing my computer, I somehow feel bored.
Mainly is because most of my friends had gone back, and I still have to stay here for one more week.
I also starts thinking about my future, that is it good for me to continue studying here.
Many people ask me why I came here, since I have no interest in Engineering at all.
I can only say it's all about scholarship.
I don't know what should I study after my SPM.
I'm just like other people, applying for all sorts of scholarship, and study whatever I got.
At that time, I thought maybe following my Dad's legacy in becoming an engineer is good enough for me.

I like music, and I wish to study music, but that I can only wish.
Music is not a hot subject in Malaysia, so if I really want to study, I have to go overseas.
The main problem involves here is money problem, my family is not very rich.
I had surveyed quite a lot of music colleges and universities overseas after SPM, and I found another problem: I have no theory basic.
All the music stuffs I know, I learned them myself.
I still remember when I told the Australian at the survey booth that I play harmonica, he nearly burst out laughing.
I know I can't fulfill this dream of mine to become a famous musician, it is just a dream for me.

Then I accepted UTP's offer and start studying here, I found that UTP orchestra team is linked with Malaysia's Philharmonic Orchestra.
That makes me collect back all my hope to involve in music.
I started to join UTP orchestra basic classes, but it really disappoints me.
I only had one class with my so-called instructor for the whole semester.
That guy is good, but the committee of the team was bad enough.
They change the timetable depend on their time, and sometimes didn't even come to practice.
I like the Chinese Orchestra than UTPO, seriously speaking.

Now that the semester had ended, and we have to register for next semester.
As I was filling the registration form, I was thinking: "Should I do this? Where will I be after 4 to 5 years? What will I do? What can I do?..."
I really don't know, whether my choice is right or wrong.
I can only say, may God lead my way.
Wherever He leads me, I will just follow.

Since it's now the start of holidays, I wish all my friends Happy Holiday!
Wish you all have a good time in this one month time, and see you again next semester, if I'm still here.
So long! Bye! ^~^

Angel Sound

I want to talk about two singing groups that I like very much, one male group and another female one.
I start listening to their songs after I came into UTP, and I still like them a lot.

PUSSYCAT DOLLS
I don't know about the girls, but most of us guys like PCD very much.
These six sexy singers are really HOT!!!
Their songs are very nice, their MV better.
They like to move around in a very seducing way, and their favourite is dancing around vehicles.
(I mean on cars...)
My friends watch PCD's videos almost everyday, but they never get bored.
Luckily I'm not that crazy about them.... ^~^



IL DIVO
Oh, my God. Their singing are SUPER!!!
These four spanish young men have the most beautiful voices I've ever heard.
Whoever say that their singing are not nice, I will slowly influence you to like them. (like what I did to my friends.. ^-^)
Their singing really can makes one think that everything else in this world doesn't matter anymore.
I called it heavenly melody, just as a verse said in Chinese:
此曲只应天上有，人间能得几回闻。
If only I have half of their standard, that will be enough...

I hope people will enjoy their songs too.
I will try to listen to more songs, then maybe one day I will discover some other singing group better than them.
Haha... ciao! ^~^
