yay! im back! aha i missed everyone! ah sheesh i should sleep cos i got a race tmr!!!!
ok make this as fast as possible. msia was....the same hahaha cept for a few interesting incidences. in KL we stayed at JW Marriott. aha not bad the room quite big (: and there was a tennis court! so me and my bro went to play tennis instead of swimming yay :D
in malacca we stayed at the Renaissance. aha which didnt have a tennis court but had a squash court! so we played squash on 2 days! and i got to sleep on the extra bed which was right next to the window. and the view at night is great really. so pretty all the lights (:
Interesting Incident No. 1: my brother screamed when he saw three LIVE toads in a cage afer i pointed it out to him, and gave my mum a fright in the process.
I learnt: my bro screams like a girl! very high
Interesting Incident No. 2: I got scared twice while walking back to the hotel at night in malacca. was walking past a shophouse when i saw a shadow and the door slammed. second time was when i peered into an empty dorrway and got a fright when i saw three figures loitering there. turned out to be three women.
I learnt: NEVER to look into dark dorrways again. esp at night
Interesting Incident No. 3: I had a good chat with my bro while at the pasar malam one night in malacca. it was really cool (: haha he was explaining maple to me, then we moved on the discuss pokemon and finally he told me abt him playing soccer in school. and then we started arm wrestling ahaha.
I learnt: my bro can be very talkative. i've never seen him talk so much and so animatedly before. and i can still win him at arm wrestling yay!
Interesting Incident No. 4: my bro got carsick on the way home. and at the spore immigration counter, i mentioned tt i hope he wouldnt vomit in front of the immigration officer. and he didnt. but he vommitted immediately after and the immigration officer who was suppose to check the car merely gave us a glace before waving us on.
I learnt: to keep my mouth shut.
other learning points...
- my mum and i were discussing my bro's academic future [AHA YES!] and abt his chances of getting into RI. i admit, for some strange reason, i kinda WANT my bro to get into RI.(this is saying a lot considering tt if he does, i'll be right next door in rj) and my mum wants him to as well. i was telling her tt if he wanted to increase his chances he has to excel at tennis for the next three yrs so tt he'll be able to apply through dsa. or join OM or IVP. yeah but i think his tennis is his best bet. oh well jiayou!
- haha i see why my sis and i are vastly diff. our reactions after i told her abt obs next yr are so diff. im like yay! omg cant wait and she's like ewww no yucks so dirty! aha! but i see now why i shoud encourage her more. yeah im learning to be a good sis aha.
- it is the people tt u actually rmb. how they live so simply yet are so happy. how they have a giving spirit, even to strangers and foreigners. reminds me of my guide on kinabalu. how he held my hand all the way up to the summit push. how he made sure i didnt slip and fall and gently encouraged me. yeah they're all passing faces in my life, and i prob wont ever get to meet them again, but yet they never fail to touch me in some way with their kindness and generosity. truly inspiring haha.
ok now tt im back, a huge workload awaits me and i have many things i wanna do before the hols are over - which includes watching three movies: aeonflux, chicken little and NARNIA!!! aha ok nvm cant wait for orientation 06 as well. shall sleep now if not i'll be dead tmr. im hoping my ankle wont give way... :D
