Terminator : Salvation

Today is the last day of holiday. Tomorrow gonna be the start of nightmare - SCHOOL ! Chin Seng asked us out to watch movie. At first, it gonna be Night At The Museum 2. Then, we ended up with Terminator:Salvation. This movie is gonna be a BLast, I thought so. However, the press commented on this movie. 'Not so good', 'Not touching', etc. My friends said Terminator is not good too, not understandable. LOL

Chin Seng and Ong went to Jusco, then booked the tickets early. I still have my tuition. I met them up in the Cybercafe. I played for an hour. Fun, it's been awhile since last time. Ong even played for hours. Coffee Bean too, Chin Seng said. LOL. Then, Chuan and Yah also came. Thank you Chuan for buying me drinks and popcorns. Really sorry ya ! We had nice seats, that's rather great. In fact, I drank half of my Coke before even entered the cinema. Regret that, coz half-way the movie I'd no drinks. LOL

Terminator:Salvation is great, to me. The great story line is amazing. Not just those fighting scenes or running away scenes. I love the best part - When John Connor is broadcasting his 'speech' through the radio. His words are noble and cool man, especially the last part. LOL (the organic robot is fantastic too), it'd feelings. WE AIN'T FIGHTING THIS COLD-BLOODED WAR !

SKYNET...booM !

After the movie, we went separate ways. Bye ! drink a sample juice (apricot) and the salesauntie even asked me : " Tasty? ..ok .. Bye Bye ! " (coz she knew I ain't gonna buy any juice) . LOL

Genting Highland - Hotels

At last, I stepped foot on Genting. I recalled back times when Genting was really 'cold', but now the weather is nothing compared to other places. It's just better than the HOT weather down in Ipoh with the sun high in the sky all the time. I feel relax with the windy weather, at least wind cools me down. We reached Genting in the afternoon. I followed to search for parking bays, for half an hour. Turned few times, just spot a space after many turns. For my luck, it's whether no parking bays, or it will be 2 parking bays available at the same time. Sigh.

Then, I took the lift to the lobby. Wow, the queue was long enough to fill a train ! even a highway. LOL

Number. I got 718. How come now is still 600, increasing? need a walk, I thought. First World Plaza was about the same as I can remember. Just a few add-ons here and there. Still as crowded as before. All I can see are heads. People taking rides on 'Euro Express' , screaming ! then, dad and I screamed with them even though we're not on the ride. Funny huh? just to get into the holiday mood. I'm not mad. I strolled past shops and gaming sites. Saw girls here and there. I know Genting's weather is really not that cold, coz girls can wear mini-skirts, gown, mini-shorts. (less clothing). No jackets. I'm still wearing my Lib-T coz went Genting after in school. LOL (representing Sam Tet Lib). LOL

Now, the hotel room. One word - small. The main problem is the toilet. Only 5 x 4 tiles in area, I estimated. The door can't be locked. What? goodness I'm with my family. The toilet is even smaller than a restaurant table, I reckon. LOL

This is the so-called 'standard view' from the standard view room.

Fed-up. LOL. The toilet shampoo-dispenser was even spoiled. Can't get it to work. LOL. Open it and use it !

Genting - Eve

Tomorrow, I'm going to Genting. It's been years since last time I been there. Like a kid back then. Miss there. This year has been more to local tours.

It's Genting-Eve, but I'm still staying up late. I still need to go to school the next day. What a problem? and still rush back for my trip. It's gonna be a hectic day. Why can't I escape the hustle and bustle of the concrete jungle life even though it's holidays? actually there's nothing as in 'holidays'. Until now, I haven't really been relaxing. Back to school and out of house everyday. Almost slept late everyday. Most of the time was online and chatting until time passed without noticed. Time really flies, faster than anything, even invisible if there isn't a clock in this world. Nobody will know when to stop and start, especially me.

This blog was interrupted by internet problems, always facing these kind of problems recently. I thought I can't finish my blog post tonight ! What a relief !

Genting - gamblers' paradise, or rather 'grave' !

If you are a pro, no worries !

I'm going up there, hope there's fun awaiting me !

My friends are attending a 'Librarians' Gathering' in Poi Lam High. Too bad I can't go. I would like to go if isn't for this trip. Well, my friends have fun !

Add Maths

Public holiday - I thought my Add Maths tuition will be off. Ran out of luck. It's on. 

Hot weather. Nothing but heat in the air. In the small room, we were having tuition. However, beside me that guy is listening music (low volume). Pro. I just feel kinda hot and tired. 

Almost the end, we were still doing the exercises. Logarithms (hate this most) ! but somehow I manage to 'play' with it. In the midst of all that, I heard the teacher started his Grand theory on left-handed people. What the? He was referring to a girl in front, NOT me in the back. So I'm invisible now. Now every teacher pays more attention to girls than boys, how 'naughty' !

When he walked to the back, he checked our progress ! Shit, I forgot to jot down my steps. 

" Sui zai ! ... seh dai ma ! "

Those guys beside me laughed ! Hahaha, it's ok coz what I want is speed. Just speed.

Wan Tan Mee

Just slept a while before noon. So damn tired. Had to go to the school and hand over the form. Aiya ! 

My computer was hang like hell when I woke up. So slow and like paralyzed ! I restarted twice !

Damn, I went to a Wan Tan Mee cafe. Eat ! When I walked in, guess who I came across?

Is not more than the Mr.Chan CW. I thought he didn't recognize me. Think again ! I'm wearing my Lib-T ! Hell-Yeah ! ... but he don't know me anyway, coz I ain't that infamous in discipline which is his field. When we met in the eyes, I think he think of something. What? Hope he won't find me when school starts ! Never thought he live near there. Unbelievable !

Probational Librarians (PLs)

Our school library is having the regular basis again. Probational librarians (PLs). 

Yesterday, my duty shift was in the evening. Quite many PL came, good news, I thought. Not quite. Duty IN, why do I have to teach PL? It's Ok. However, photostat what? Oh, I grasped anything in my path. Oops, I never did this before. I trembled, you know? I kept asking Desmond to demonstrate the way a photostat machine. At least I'd help. Great !

Photostat normal size, reduced, enlarged, both-sided. Mission accomplished ! Yahoo !

I don't know whether they get it or not. I just know there's one PL kept saying EASY JOB while photostating both-sided papers. Wait until you see the BIG thing ! 

Today, PLs again. They did plenty of works. Good. I need to teach PL again. Unexpectedly, the PL looks familiar. Don't know where did I saw her. Maybe just a friend of my friend. That's all. PLs are quite daring to ask. They sure ask you whatever they don't understand. Tried my best to keep them satisfied. 

Just another same old day. Later.

Jusco Blackout

Jusco - May Last Day

I thought it will be another boring day in Jusco, following my mother for window-shopping. I didn't really enjoy ; mom enjoy though. Shopping = observing people from all walks of life (girls), this is my concept of shopping. It's not even right. I'm not right too.

8:oop.m.

I was eating out near the karaoke in Jusco (beside - not in Kbox). I spotted some activities in Kbox. Photographer killing rolls of films (it's digital) to take the photos of some participants. Wow. Those participants of the final were dressed to kill. Some were drop dead gorgeous. I envy the photographer. Why? Coz he'd the photos. There's a long queue into the room of competition, I thought. Everyone took photos and posed before that. Never been to any karaoke in my life. That's why I struggle to even spell ' K-A-R-A-O-K-E '. Saw people coming in and out there. After I finished my dinner, I left the corner. 

...

8:50p.m. (approximately)

Lights went out instantly as I walked past Popular. Emergency lights went on. There's only a few lights above the escalators up to the cinema were ON. The corner I left was a dark space now. Just some flashes from random torchlights. I'm sure somebody panic. People in Kbox sure unlucky. Especially the girls. Whoever in the lift is unfortunate. Darkness is not a friend of anyone. I can see but not clearly. It gave me a sense of mystery, or rather a bit of fun struck my mind. I became playful. Nothing seemed right to me. The usual window-shopping can't be done because the shops are dark. Some even closing. Thus, I thought we're going home. So did we, but later.

Few minutes later.

The lights went ON back, but in vain. It was not enough. The generator is enough to withstand some lights only. Hope for seconds gone.

Lights On again, Off again.

9:07p.m.

That scenario has been lasting for about four times. No hope yet. However, the supermarket had lights ON, but cashier failure. Queue that will last for miles angered my mom, I thought. We decided to hit our road home. What about the parking ticket? Damn. All machines were DOWN. I ran around Jusco to find one UP. Aiks. Then, I asked a female guard.

" Semua mesin tak boleh guna ke? "

" Ya. "

" Tunggu? "

....no response....

I'd no idea when the electricity will be back. So, home I went. LOL.
