For Lia ;)

I need a mathematician to count the times i've said i love you,

a doctor to check wether you took my breathe away,

an economist to ponder on oppurtunity cost when i'm away from you,

a philosopher to really understand how much i love you.

~alif~

ps : it's not taken from a book :P

My car got stolen!!

The title is self explanatory!! I lost my freaking car on Chap Goh Meh!! Wtf man one minute its there and the next the whole damn thing is gone...



Well i went to take care of the AIESEC booth in Career Path at around 11am and i parked right in front of Dewan Tunku Canselor in University of Malaya. Then when i wanted to get my ass off to class around 1.50pm to submit my damn assignment i just couldn't find my car!! So i went to the guards to report this and then to the Jalan Pantai Police Station where they ask me to get my ass off to the Brickfields Headquarters... When all was done we went for our 'lunch' at 5pm. And I did all this with Goay and Lia's help. Not to mention Ruben who came along as well awhile later.



Thanks for being there for me people. Really appreciate all the help and the concern that you guys showed ;)



K now back to the story... After our 'lunch' in Pelita! Ruben was about to reach 6th college when Sarjan Dana called and said they found my car!! But without tyres and stuff like that. And yeah we had to make a huge turnabout and when we got there My car was there!! My tyres are gone,stereo, battery and most importantly my CD Collections!! Fuck all those CDs are memories.. Some are gifts from friends and stuff like that and each has a journey of its own... And not to mention it sums up to at least rm550! Sigh what to do... my family came along later and lia,ruben and goay left once they came...My parents went with the police officers to get new set of wheels... When all is done we went to the police station again to settle the paperwork...


Sigh all this doesnt even come close into explaining how my whole day had gone by... but hey shit happens... at least i got my car back... at least i got new wheels and hopefully a new stereo... and most importantly at least i'm not the one paying the bill! =P That was how my day turned out to be.. For all the shits i've gone through yesterday and the agonizing loss i felt for my CD collections... I'll be mourning your lost... The emptiness you've left behind... the silent moments without Prince, The Darkness, Van Halen, Jamie Cullum, Foo Fighters, Chris Botti etc... To those who have it right now... i don't think you would like most of my collections heheh... Well its just life i guess... Shit can happen anytime anywhere without any warning.. and i've handled it well i guess... Well i might fret a lil bit here and there but what's most important is that i've been through it and i've pulled free from it... right now anyway... til then i'll just hope for the best and hopefully my luck will turn around... I've always looked at the positive side of things... and yeah yesterday i think i handled it well... hey i didn't break down or anything marr lolz... To have lost a car and still be smiling about it and not to mention attending AIESEC episodes after that... Wow i amaze myself sometimes heheh... Once again... Thank you Family, Friends and Society... For making my day ;)

The Real World

Well I had my first share of being there during Career Path 08 in University of Malaya. Well going through companies, talking and even getting little insights of what to expect once i start working. To tell you the truth it freaks me out a little bit. Yes i know that it's competitive and all that but actually being there and talking those 'recruiters' are making me thinking like heck what the heck am i here in this world for! They're not recruiting people! They are basically scaring them off!!

I'm so used to being the easy going kinda guy and later on once i get into the corporate world will i be able to manage?? Having a major in Mechanical Engineering in the near future but will i be happy with life?? Will I get the chance to do what I like? WHAT THE HECK DO I LIKE DOING IN THE FIRST PLACE?? Am I going to be a somebody?? Am i willing to go all out to achieve something later on?? I guess it all depends on what you want in life that time during that PARTICULAR TIME. So now i'll sit back and enjoy the rest of my student life... Joining AIESEC and meeting people... growing my already booming NETWORK and going with the flow as i slowly merge into a corporate sector... for now i am alif... the idiot whom you guys love to hang out with =P Chilling out!~

Part-timing Saturday

Woke up at 7am! Had breakfast a lil bit and studied a bit here and there... i have two tests on monday and wednesday but i'm working from 10am-9pm during the weekends!! Geez imagine those student-working people.... Student in the day and baristas at night! Gosh i can't imagine how they could cope with anything what more enjoying life!! Thank god i'm only doing this for the weekends and only within a months time..


Students are jugglers... and AIESECers could be the king's bard in comparison.. AIESEC work, studies, assignments and sometimes work.. hey you gotta be great to be able to pull it off... just having been going through it for a day is enough to actually make me feel so bloody stressed up... with tests, assignments, projects, xchange etc coming along next week itself i'll be damned if i'm not alive by the end of the week... i can't go back home this weekend!! Can't do laundry!! =P heheh but hey work wasn't so bad if u don't mind standing almost the whole day... but heck imagine if i were to be working as a mascott i'll be earning rm160 a day!! And that's a HECK LOAD OF CASH where part-time jobs is concerned..
Nevermind the stinking costume or the huge clowny shoes and not being able to breathe in the god knows what thingy's... but hey... it's all fun man... had fun giving out balloons to lil kids and seeing their reaction when they saw kent, our mascot for the 2 hours... hahah part time jobs come to me very frequent lately... all thanks to varun... i don't know wether i should thank you or strangle you bro heheh ;)

V Day!

Well Happy Valentines Day though it might be a wee too late. Being someone not really the type to go all out for valentines day i tend to look at things in another perspective. Like some others say
"Everyday is a Valentines Day"

Well it might be just a way to wiggle through V-Day whilst saving up some cash.. but to some people they really mean it when they say that every day is a valentine's day.

..Should we just get our loved ones gifts on special occasions??
..Why can't we dine in a fancy restaurant any other day just to let your other half know that the sparks are still shining??
..What makes you think that you should say 'i love you' more times during valentines day??

Hey look at it this way... If you get gifts or bring your someone out on V-Day wouldn't things cost a lil bit more?? And wouldn't it be better when you just bring them out or get them gifts without no particular reason rather than giving them something when they are already expecting it??
I personally believe the secret to a great gift is the element of surprise...It doesnt matter if the things you get isn't all that great but as long as the timing is right then it'll give wonderous results ;)

For those couples out there, make everyday V-Day ayte.. Cherish the ones you have and live life like you've never before.

And for singles out there, hey V-Day or no V-day-happy hunting AND HAPPY SINGLE's AWARENESS DAY!! =P

Technology oh what the heck

Well what a 'great' start to the earth rat year i had... First off my handphone gives me all kinds of trouble.. Imagine someone calling you and they can't freaking hear what you're saying!! Heck if you ever wanna get a handphone don't you ever get a Nokia5300... It's great if you're the type to look after your phone and all that but after a few drops it'll get whacked!! Hey i remembered when back in the days when all it takes for a phone to do is answer calls and reply SMSes... Sadly those days are long gone.. with the coming of a whole new era for handphones every few years u'll basically get bored of a brand new phone you bought today in a few month's time!! I AM NOT those who really care about having hightech handphone gadgets and stuff like that but it's just so hard to get a simple decent handphone nowadays.... what with all the handphones having other unimaginable inclusions... so should I get a new handphone or should i just repair the old one?? heck why bother buying any when in 2months time it'll already be 'outdated' ... I guess i'll just continue using old handphone here til i get really annoyed with it then....

A beginning??

Well I'll be damned... After years of not blogging, will this be a beginning of a new blogging era... well for me at least =P due to the shift or rather the transition from doing pre-uni to a real uni life... time flies and as time descends upon us all we tend to ignore certain things bit by bit, pushing them aside til one day it just seem so alien to us... well that's what happened with my blogging 'career' if you wanna call it that... one minute i was posting up posts almost every week and then it slowly deteriorates til one day it was totally forgotten... But fret not my subjects! Coz i'm back n i'm whack as ever!!

So this is what I do... after a one whole week of CNY break (which was supposed to be spent studying mind you)... on the last sunday of the short hol... posting a beginning of what i've long left behind ;)
