Latest updates!!
well quit the data analyst job on the day after the exam... Why??? well they conveniently forgot to tell us till the last day of training that we dont get paid until we get a client which depending on ur performance can take up to 2 weeks.. so basically i would have to go 2 weeks without pay... waste of my money traveling up and down everyday.... anyway got a temp one week job at bank of tokyo starting feb 2... better than nothing i guess...
been busy with all the preparations for the taekwondo tournament we are organising next month... as usual i got stuck with the donkey job of handling all the paperwork besides all the other things i have to do due to the fact (according to the rest of the committee) that my english is good... sick of hearing that excuse already .... haih anyway not like i got anything else better to do :P
Went to michelle's house yesterday for her bday party... had barbecue...and lots of drinks...first time i tried tuak and todi in my life... and its also the last time in my life i'll be drinking todi, taste like spoilt coconut water..yucks.. reached back home at 4 in the morning, changed and straight KOed on the bed..woke up a few hours later for training with a hangover....

It's been a while !!
ooo its been a while since i posted anything....
lets see what new....Michelle and the gang have become addicted to futsal and i'm now playing futsal at least twice a week, at least this way i'm getting some exercise... My cousin from Johor is still here... hehe he decided that KL is more interesting then Johor so he wants to stay until his results come out... been trying to get him a job here...anyone got any suggestions?
oh i started job training on wednesday along with Wilson and Dharshan...it's a data analyst job at a FOREX trading consultant firm near KLCC... it's kinda like the stock market but with a few differences... its quite an interesting job.... and the ppl working there are great fun to talk to.... still got another day of training left and then i'll have to sit for a test before they call us for the second interview... it's a 5 day a week job, so i'll still be able to practice TKD on the weekends..YEEEAAAA :)

Sports filled week
This week was a very healthy week for me :)
it was basically packed with sports.... lets see 2 nights of futsal at the club with michelle, owen, pam, gabriel,victor, keny, anthony and a few more (sorry if i left out anyone's names or misspelled them) .... it was great fun and a good work out tooo... first time i'm playing football since form 5, so i was a little rusty..
saturday was back to teaching taekwondo after 2 weeks break... then at night my cousin wanted to go play badminton... so spent bout 1 1/2 hours playing.... met up with Mat while having dinner....
woke up today with sore legs but still had to go to for training cause master wanted to have a meeting after class...class ended at 1.40.. promised to meet kong soon at PWTC for the education fair at 1.30pm but ended up reaching there at 3pm...
came back with quite a lot of brochures..... quite a few will be recycled though (dont know why i took some of it .. it wasnt even a course i was interested in.. :) ) ..... met up with yap and lai kuan.. went to the mall....
Was just discussing this years garudamas with kuan ming and yap (some pics are up on kuan ming's website..check it out...)... i think it looks horrible... very disappointing... further more its the 100 year edition....pictures were blurry and poorly edited, quite a number or spelling mistakes (even the school's name is spelt wrong in 1 section).... dont know who is to blame the editorial board or the printing company....me personally i think the fault lies with the school... they should have asked for a sample copy to check through before printing out the full orders... anyway whats done is done...

Tiring
today was quite a tiring day .... went with wilson to renaissance hotel ... thought can get a part-time job... turned out they only had full time jobs available... so i didn't want cause i would like to be able to continue my TKD training on the weekends.... then we decided to go to klcc cus i saw a few job openings at some of the restaurants... went to chillies but the interviews were only at 3pm... had lunch at burger king (the double swiss mushroom burger is delicious) then we went over to the british council to hang out till 3....went for the interview and by the time we finished was about 4... the pay is not bad... minimun 5.20 per hour ... plus the guy said average tips daily is anywhere between 50-100 bucks on weekdays and even more on weekends... i'll only know if i get the job or not next week... hopefully i will cause i'm too lazy to go out and look for another job.. :)

Happy New Year !!!!
Well lets see I've been pretty busy this past week.. went to Penang for 4 days and 3 nights with yappie, teck keng, chee how, yao xian, hen, wilson and geetha. My was that an extremely tiring experience..but fun none the less... lets see we left on monday ...went by bus...here's a summary of what we did:
day 1:
- took the FREE shuttle bus to the hotel (continental hotel) from the jeti
- unpacked and went for lunch... had the famous penang chendol (according to yap) tasted the same to me... then had asam laksa (which by the way was very good)
- then we went window shopping at Komtar...had sales.. up to 80% off..
- Went walking around the hotel area.
- Checked out the clubs near by
day 2:
- went to kek lok si temple (not sure of the spelling)... interesting architecture.. oh and a good place to get things at bargain prices... lets see i bout 4 tshirts for 4 bucks each, a nike tshirt for 10 bucks and a chelsea jersey for 10 bucks (for my cousin...im a true MAN U FAN)
- had lunch at a stall near the temple...asam laksa again
- Went to Prangin Mall to watch Kung Fu Hustle (only the guys.. the girls decided to do some shopping)...
day 3:
- Went to the snake temple in the morning.... quite a let down actually ... very few snakes and nothing much to see... spent more time on the bus ride there then we spent looking around the place
- went for luch once we reached the town.... yap took us on long long long journey to find a restaurant.... food was not great but not bad either
- went to Penang Hill....did lots and lots of walking up there which was extremely tiring and my bad knee started hurting the next day... did the canopy walk.. that was quite fun ... had to bullshit geetha a bit to make her walk across..hehehe.. sorry..
- went back to Prangin Mall....sat at the DVD shop and watched resident evil 2..bought a few dvd's and vcd's .....had dinner at Mac D
- round 12 all of us except geetha (too sleepy) and Chee How (no more money) went to Slippery Senoritas...it was ladies night, free flow of cocktails for the ladies so hen was in heaven... the guys were in heaven for an entirely different reason .. LOL.... had a few drinks... yap, wilson and teck keng hit the dance floor... the highlight of the night was when yap got hit on by an indonesian lady (not a very good looking on unfortunately for him)...
day 4:
- woke up at 7... everyone was extremely sleepy and a bit hung-over
- had to rush to catch the bus back .... reach just in the nick of time
- reached back home at bout 5 in the evening
Had a new years eve celebration with family and some family friends at a restaurant/pub called Bisik near ampang park... i think we conquered half the place... 55 ppl all together if i'm not mistaken... had dancing, drinks and the food was good too.... had quite a bit to drink, my dad was paying.... there was no countdown, replaced by a min silence due to the tsunami disaster...we finished bout 3am then went for supper or is it considered breakfast...hmm confusing... anyway we went to the lotus restaurant opp. niko hotel... finally reached back home at bout 5am...
