My class of 2009 in Chung Ling is 5SA1

Written by Nicholas Chan on January 6, 2009 – 12:25 am -

I’ve succesfully keep myself in the A classes for all the years of me being in Chung Ling High School and this year will be the last year for me studying in this high school. For sure I am going to enjoy and love it to the max no matter what because high school is real fun, please love it.

Last year was a good year for me, I love my 4SA5 of 2008 and I missed my friends, some are now in different classes due to different scores. The allocation of classes in my school, Chung Ling High School goes like this, position of 1-200 get into one of the 5 A classes, 201-380 get into one of the 4 B classes and the rest are in C classes. Not saying that I am in first class or whatsoever, just that I have made some friends here.

5SA1 is my class this year and it’s beside the washroom again. Looking at the number 5, I felt old, I don’t want to be old, think young, stay young. Haha.

First day of school was a little bit boring, not very interesting but I like it. I was very excited for first day of school. I went around to say hi and meet everyone in class and also people from our neighbouring classes. I’m don’t really know the teachers well, so I need sometimes to know that whether they are friendly and good, or not. Hopefully, I got some friendly teachers like last year.

This is Jing Min, he sat behind me and that’s his desk.

He was there to help me to hold camera and that’s my place. Happy new year again.

From Baiyunport back to Penang

Written by Nicholas Chan on January 6, 2009 – 12:16 am -

I really don’t know where to start. I’ll be splitting my writings on my recent Guangzhou trip into different places that I had visited. Stay tune, I have took so much photos there and need some time to process, filter, pick, choose and upload. That’s the problem of taking so much photo. Hehe.

(There’s 3 terminal, 1 is for domestic flight, 1 is for arrival, 1 is for international flight)

Let’s rewind from the last day of me coming back to Penang. It was Friday afternoon, our driver waited at our hotel (Holiday Inn Shifu) at 12pm, we got on and that marked the end of our trip. We were going to the airport and it tooks like 30 minutes, it’s a long way out of town and the airport is located in Baiyun district.

There’s nothing for me to see after getting on the expressway, it’s just roads and cars.

On the first day of arriving at Guangzhou, there’s an announcement on the plane during landing that told us that we are not allow to take any photos inside the airport. I did take that in mind and also took some short from my mobile. On the last day, I don’t care about it anymore and I just take as much as I like, only then I knew that photography is not allow at the inspection area.

The airport is really good, on par with other big international airport, not like the Penang International Airport. Anyway, our Penang International Airport has a better washroom now. Haha.

After checking in, getting the boarding pass, getting through the custom and inspection gate, there’s not much time left for us to shop. Just window shopped while walking to our terminal at a far end.

A11 was our gate. I was on Thai Airway, the flight did not fly straight back to Penang but have a transit at Bangkok Survarnarbhumi Airport. End up having 2 air meals. =)

One thing is, I was Malaysian Airlines there, proud to see that but it was a very small plane.

3 hours later, we arrived in Bangkok’s Airport. The weather from turned to hot from before cold in Guangzhou. Nothing to see in the terminal, just a some shop and we sat at the restaurant for an hour and we did eat something there. I was just listening to my iPod all the time, sad that there’s no wifi at the airport.

My dad kept my Coke bottle in the hand luggage, he had forgotten to keep it in the luggage that was to checked in to the plane, we passed the first custom in Guangzhou but were asked to take it out at Bangkok, I poured all the juice and just took the can.

1+ hour later, I arrived in Penang, safely.

The sky from the window of the aeroplane

Written by Nicholas Chan on January 5, 2009 – 12:20 am -

I love sitting at the side of the aeroplane by the window. Although there’s nothing interesting to see outside the airplane, but if you are lucky and at the correct time at the correct timezone, you might see sunset or sunrise high in the air. One bad thing is, the sun shines into the aircraft and when you are on a lousy airplane with lousy AC, you will feel the heat.

This was taken while approaching Bangkok at around 5pm local time. There’s the nice blue sky, nice white clouds and a little bit of Mr Sunshine. Pretty!

2010 Asian Games is in Guangzhou

Written by Nicholas Chan on January 5, 2009 – 12:09 am -

I am not a fan of sports. I know the previous Asian Games was in Doha and do you know where is the next Asian Games will be? It will be in Guangzhou in 2010. I only know about it when I saw the promo billboard in Guangzhou last week.

Back to school 2009

Written by Nicholas Chan on January 5, 2009 – 12:04 am -

It’s already year 2009 and the 7 weeks not-very-long year end school holidays for the schooling kids like me is now off and finished. I’ve been slacking a lot during the holiday but at least I did some shopping for myself like a new computer, new phone and have been to travel. Though all of these were useless. Anyway, I did do something useful during the holiday, like helping out in the children camp, read the Internet, take a lot of photos and a little bit more that I don’t remember at this moment.

I am all set for school tomorrow. Alarm is set at 6.13am. I don’t know why I set at that time, but I just like simply pressing a number, I don’t want the last number to end with 5 or 0.

It will be fun and free on the first day of school, I have my bag read. I have a pencil case, a free red notebook for writing down every useful information, my clear folder that I must have with me every year and a Chinese book that I bought in Guangzhou all in my new red Porter slingbag. I feel like bring along my phone to school, but the school does not allow any gadget and cellphones in school, I will not take the risk of being caught and jailed my phone for 3 months in the school discipline office, so no phone tomorrow.

Chung Ling folks, I’ll see you in school. I am gonna say “Good morning, happy new year and gong hei fatt choi to everyone in school”. =) Super damn very the excited right now.

By the way, this is my last year in high school, it’s a little bit sad for me.

Random Fake Polaroid #5

Written by Nicholas Chan on January 2, 2009 – 6:00 pm -

It’s the last fake polaroid for this automated post. Black and white is my recent favourite style to take photos, but it can’t always be black and white because it will be boring sometimes.

I’m coming home today, hopefully I can have something up today.
