Sometimes i wonder, do i really overestimate my capabilities? Am i doing things i know i cant or wont be able to handle/ juggle, yet im just doing it because i really want to, without taking into account the fact that I am just a normal person who has many limitations. And after all of it, everything will just be in a mess, instead of getting the best out of both...

Last Friday, we had an internship briefing. Sunway was invited to give a short briefing on their recruitment of Monash students. The GM of HR said these sentences, "Malaysian likes to travel so far, they never appreciate or like anything near to their place. They like to go AFomosa in Malacca then go to Sunway Lagoon, they are suckers for distance." I experienced it myself today. We had a trip down to Serdang for Claypot Fish when there is so much good food in KL. Does the traveling the so much more extra distance make the food more delicious or is just all the mind? Hmm... Personally? The food there is nicer. :)

Bad bad day
Another bad day to add to the memory.
It started out with a group discussion in Uni, but turned out just to be PC and I. Our other team mate came out, while another MIA (no idea what happened to her). The discussion didn't go to well, we were all being sleazy and lazy. But at least we did something.
Then came a late lunch, with the few shops we went to were close, so we actually traveled all the way to Taipan. It was far, but guess we ran out of option, seeing it was practically tea time, instead of lunch. The food was fine, instead i actually liked it. The roasted pork was crunchy and nice!
After lunch, we were a little high and wanted to play ping pong. I emptied my pocket to lessen the weight, then i realised i lost my car key. CRAP! Of all the things, what am i going to do without a car key and with a car? I dont want to possibly leave the car in Uni, or worst still camp in Uni. I started to panic. KY suggested to checked her car, so we walked all the way to the construction area and checked. Futile effort, so we went back to the Uni, and asked the security to open the library, as it was closed. At first they were reluctant, so i was like i have no car key, i cant go back and i cant leave my car here anyway. So they were nice and a security opened the door for us. We went to the discussion room to find it was locked. The security told us he only have the card and not any keys. Great! So we went down, searched the lost and found, still nothing. I panicked more. Then we were at the counter and saw the keys of the rooms. We managed to get in, but still missing keys.... Then KY started to scare me about how people will steal my car when they have the keys by randomly pressing till they find the right car. She asked me to check whether my car was still at the car park, so we packed our stuff and went to the car park. Luckily my car was still there. *phew*
In the meantime, i was calling everyone single person i knew to get Wei Yi number. It was impossible to contact PC. Her handphone was dead as usual, so i had to call WY. But i didnt have WY number, so i called Dan, and EN and Wei Leung, to get her number. Then i started spamming WY phone but no one picked up. I was running out of choice. I had to call my mom to bring the spare keys. She was really grumpy, saying she got stucked in the jam for an hour. All the roads were really really really jam. Then when i told her she had to come out to give me the keys, she was really annoyed. She said let her rest then she come out again when she actually reached home! Claiming that it was bad that the traffic was bad, an idiot got to lose her key NOW! Wow, grumpy of her. I was getting desperate, i was going to Taipan soon if i still cant reach WY or PC. KY suggest to call PC house, but i dont have her number. So we called Tom and Andrew for her house number, or even her parents number. Anyone... anoyone that lets me contact her. The key is either with her and WY, positive.
Then suddenly WY picked my call, i was like, u send PC back already? Hmm.. Did you take my car key. When she said no, i was rather sceptical, so i was like could you check your stuffs please? I described my car key, which is a Honda similar to hers. Then my mom called telling me how bad is the jam like the day could not get any worst. Then WY called again telling me that she is coming. I was just so happy that she found my keys. I was started to get really really worried about it.
Then i started speeding home. As my mom was right, it was really jam. I went from Federal and detoured to Old Klang Road. Old Klang road was jam, so i detoured to NPE, to a turn before Bangsar to Abdullah Hukum, turning back down to the back road of Bangsar. Turned out before Brickfield, but had to detour to town. Bumped into a road block, then headed to PBD. The only shortest route from PBD back home was Bangsar and it was jam till the very end, so turned down to Jalan Duta. Jalan Duta was jam too, but i had no choice, no other detours. It was a straight road down to town. I was surprised it was jam, as it was seldom jam. I knew the reason when i saw another road block on the left and another to the right, which made all the cars forced to go to KL Sentral way, which contributed to more jam to the already jammed Brickfield. From KL Sentral i had to go down to Brickfield, detoured to Syed Putra to reach home. Sigh... What a long journeym practically 2 hours. I could have reached Ipoh with 2 hours.... And all i did was came back from Uni which usually takes 20 to 30 minutes. Damn i hate protests and road blocks...=s
See 3 lanes? It is actually a 2 lane road, but as usual... it has 3 now...
Argh... All the red lights..... Eye sore...

KL City
Went to Hakka Restaurant which is located opposite Pavillion for dinner today. After dinner, we walked to Traders Hotel and say a nice scenery of the Twin Tower.
Hand started to get itchy. :p
A picture from the roads
Pictures of the reflection of the twin tower on a building... from different locations
We entered Traders Hotel and went up to the 22nd floor (i think), there was a sky bar with a pool inside. Looks cool, and the scenery is cooler. Got a picture of the Twin Tower and a side view of the KL tower.
PS Sorry for the lousy resolution. I have a cheap phone with a cheap camera quality

Bye winter break
Semester break has came to an end. I'm going into my year 2 sem 2 this coming semester. Undeniable, the seniors were right, year 2 is a stressful and hectic year. Completing my sem 1, its really hectic, stressful, busy and hard. And sem 2 aint gonna be any easier, seeing we have 27 hours per week compared to 24 last semester. This is going to be a torturous semester AGAIN!
Sometimes i think human are just greedy. They tend to aim for things beyond their capabilities. They know they cant achieve it, but still want to believe, holding the belief that maybe, just maybe it will happen. But it turns out to be nothing but a disappointment.
