St John Flag Day

It’s St John Flag Days yesterday and the day before yesterday. No I am not a St John Ambulance member. MY friend is but he didn’t really like this kind of thing so he got the coin box, put a few coins into it and just keep it into the bag.

(Fang Juinn with the coin box.)

I myself like this kind of thing as I can walkaround and interact with peoples. Still remember few years back, I went to helped out for the Salvation Army flag day and I still remember it’s kinda fun. =D

What do you think?

Cable Mess

I’m not talking about the cable that lies behind the TV or my computer, it’s some external cables like adapters for PC, charger, USB cables for MP3s, cameras and all sort of gadget. I should have a place for me to keep and organize the cables but actually I don’t, it’s just like everywhere in my room and my mom just take it all and hang it on the hanger right now.

You don’t want to see the cables behind my TV and computers, it would be more messy and digusting. Haha.

DAP Office at Air Itam

I was too bored that day after tuition and I took some photos outside the DAP (Democratic Actions Party) outside the office near my tuition centre opposite my school at Air Itam.

DAP had been setting up a lot of offices in Penang lately and good to see them around. My previous tuition centre at Pulau Tikus is turn into one of the office too. =D I’m too young for politics but it’s quite interesting sometimes.

Life Suckers and Anti-Luv of 4SA5

It’s what we call part of the gang in my class, the Life Suckers. It’s started by the Arron who always says “life sucks”, and sooner, more and more classmate started to complain about life sucks and so the life suckers team or gang is formed. Yes, I am part of the team, but I haven’t find any reason why life sucks, though I’ll just life sucks with them for fun, it’s quite fun. Haha.

We got a hand sign for life sucks, where you fold up your last finger and your middle finger. From right, Arron is the creator of Life Sucks, Liang Sun and Cheong are part of the team too

Besides Life Sucks, we got another culture in class and that is Anti-Luv (Anti-Love) which is created by Brendan, one of my monitor. Well, this is about people who doesn’t want to engage in puppy love, or whatsoever love relationship thingy at the moment. Yo! I am part of the gang again, and yes I Anti-Luv too!

I still think that study, play and enjoy is the best at this moment as high school is ending in 1 year time and I should fully utilize my teen life to the max and not wasting on whatsoever love. Just let it be naturally at the moment, if got then great, if none, I won’t even bother to find one, yet.

There’s a sign too, where you fold up the last 2 fingers and it’s Anti-Luv.

So when Life Sucks plus Anti-Luv, it will be come a key and lock symbol with the 2 hand signs. Lame right, but it’s 4SA5, it’s Form 4 and it’s the way of life.

My class is likely to be divided in 2 groups, one is more to anti-social, keep on studying group, another group is the talk a lot, sing a lot, shout a lot, scream a lot, life suckers and anti-luv peoples. Imagine there’s left and right in the class, the whole right side of the back of the class are on the “another group“.

He is Fei Zhai Meng (fat boy Meng in Cantonese, even though he is not fat), or I just called him Bo Mo Beng (hairless Beng in Hokkien) because he just got his hair cut short recently. Cute guy, funny guy, a typical siao kia (siao kia is what we call funny person in Hokkien).

Zheng Feng is a joker in class. He sings well and a lot in the class. Good in sports, football, handball, basketball, etc etc.

This is Liang Sun who is now craving to go to MIT in the next two years and he is working on additional maths all the time on the back of his piano notes.

RM2.70/litre, Current Petrol Price in Malaysia

I don’t really like the number showing at the petrol station right now as I can’t tell everyone that “My country got cheap petrol”. Now you can forget about government subsidy in the petrol price, it’s no more.

If you want to increase the petrol price, why not improving our public transportation in our country so that it’s on par with other country like Singapore, Hong Kong, Tokyo? I am not a car user yet, but I ride the bus all the time and it’s still sucks.

We, oil producing country doesn’t get cheap petrol, what does that mean?

Malaysia Petrol Price Hike

I was surfing the net and keep seeing people writing message about the petrol price hike on their MSN, chatbox, Twitter and etc etc. I thought it was just fake like last time, however it turns out to be something true. The Malaysia’s Petrol Price is going up from RM1.92/litre to RM2.70/litre which is quite big increase in the price, which is going to be near to the Thailand’s petrol price.

Inflation, price hike, food getting more expensive, everything getting more expensive. Sadly, people is talking about no increase in their salary or pay. Should I asked my mom to increase my allowance too? Haha, in conjunction with the inflation and price hike, I’m sure stuff around me will increase the price too, wonder do the school continue to subsidy the canteen auntie uncle for the low priced food.

The road right now is just fulled of cars making a long line of traffic jam at the petrol station all over the country. Hoping to get a full tank before 12am where the number turns to 270.0sen/litre. I’m sure there’s station going dry with no petrol left. If you are lucky, you get a full tank before 12am. =)

There’s a petrol station beside my place, took the fun to walked there to take a look at the traffic jam on the road and join the fun with them. Haha. Sorry about the blurish photo because my big camera was running dry on the battery.

Slippers at KOMTAR Bus Interchange Station

Today, I was at bus station waiting for bus to Dato Kramat. U206 does not goes to Padang or Convent Dato Kramat by the way. I took U203 and stopped by at Padang and walked to Seang Teik Rd. I shouldn’t be stop there because I should have actually stopped at Penang Times Square and walked across the road straight to Seang Teik Rd where my tuition is.

At the bus interchange station, I saw a man running and he got his slippers drop on the ground but didn’t stop for it. I thought he was insane at first, but people seems to looking towards that running person. Then I think it shouldn’t be that simple, it must be a snatch theft have happened. Waited for so long, that person didn’t even come back for his slippers, woah! Damn, snatch theft always happens at this area, the government should do something about it.

See this, the first lane is dedicated to Rapid Penang bus that goes to Batu Feringghi and Queensbay Mall, but then I saw the stupid Hin Bus driver happily drove into this lane. Stealing customer, but people were clever, they didn’t bother about it and wait for Rapid Penang.

It was not fast today, I and my friend waited like for 20 minutes until a bus arrive. Should it be I was unlucky or the bus was slow?

Hummer H3 spotted in Penang, Malaysia

I have heard about Hummer car selling in Malaysia but I haven’t seen it before. Last Friday, I finally spotted a Hummer H3 in front of my school. I admire this car a lot because it’s very popular in the America when you watch the movie, a lot of superstar own this car. The rim, the handle, looks so shiny and metallic feeling and it’s very classy.

I wish to own one in the future because there’s not much of this appear on the road in Malaysia and I want to be uncommon to all. Hahahaha. Nice car right?
