Woohoo. Another round up. Nah this year its nothing special, quite flat. But somehow I'm really excited to write this post. Well just for an introduction. I'm not just going to round up the year, but i'm going to have a post to round up the 4 years journey to pursue my bachelor degree in Germany. I guess the main adrenaline source is the fact that i'm finally done. I actually read the last years, and i remember i really wrote it with a jiwang heart. This year i'll write it in a neutral heart. Also, I think I'll write this post first as I have christmas post, which I'm still waiting for pics from a friend. So here it goes...
January
I've started my internship. Was really a noob there. Asking questions until probably they feel like kicking me out di. Get exposed to DOTA because of Oliver, Nikki and Adrian during Christmas 2007. Abit addicted la, but at least I don't talk DOTA when I'm not playing it.
February
The fourth CNY I missed. However it was not that bad since we had a dinner in a chinese restaurant and I went for a CNY party organized by the Uni. Was quite boring actually as I remember the highlights was they called a bunch of GUAI LOU to perform wushu. The fun part was that there was live music and pretty cool music. Had my first expensive haircut in a salon. Cost me 18EURO but he did it quite professionally. Great hair cut. Valentines was emotional as usual, but I manage to get it through with minimal pain compare to the past years. And first time i wore Phua Choo Kang's yellow boots and helmet lolx.
March
Kelsen came over to Germany. We gayed alot in the room and we went Cologne to have some nice pork knuckles and night scene pics. Didn't know Kel was so talented in photography. Sadly, one of the days where he was here, we received a really bad news where we learned that our friend Samantha passed away in a tragic accident. I had some exams to do i remember so we cannot travel far, but good thing is that despite his visit, I still manage to score well in those 3 papers. Thanks to the determination in the library.
April
Starting my second task in the Institute. My birthday but was flat. Nothing much. A buffet lunch celebration. But I'm thankful enough to have friends who celebrated and wished me. Next year probably I'm gonna have a poolside party. Still planning. Oh yeah I shaved my hair lolx. Kelsen's farewell home. Though I wasn't able to sent him off, but we did have a long chat before he left Finland.
May
Spent quite alot of time writing blog and making funny post/pics. Internship was finally over. But immediately start with project work. Was quite into cooking at that time. Made some good foods. Watch Man Utd won double. Got some health problems, but later found out that it wasn't anything serious.
June
After so long, I finally get to play some basketball. Start watching Euro 2008 like mad. Went to Bon Odori(maybe not la but its some Jap fair) with Nikki and Eriko. Those two fellas were like cats and dogs and its really funny listening to them arguing in German.
July
The month of Electronics failure. First my keyboard. Then my laptop TFT screen. Then speakers. Other side of it, My bro finally graduated. Sent Edwin off. Though we only have 1 month ++ to hang out, but finally get to play basketball. Somehow basketball is the sport I'm always interested in.
August
Emotional. Fully emotional month. But anyhow still get to enjoy some of the moments. Bought a new PMP with a super cool earphones. Best earphones ever invested. Lots of olympics. Watch it day and night. Made loh mai kai. Was really cool. Tharsis's birthday celebration. Officially start my Thesis and counting days.
September
Ultra Emotional month lolx. But slowly adapting to it. slowly letting it go. Just started the Thesis so was busy reading on stuff. Flooded with problems but solve it one by one. The last month I stayed in Kammerstrasse. Really nostalgic.
October
Living a nomad life. But its turning point. I mean since I don't have my room, I actually went out more and meet up people more. Have more time to hang out outside. Can't remember exactly what I've done, but I remember it was outing after outing. Was quite busy with my thesis too and struggle it with at some point. But I manage to handle it well.
November
Had my haircuit which looks like william soo. Again lots of gatherings, parties, badminton every week. Went shopping and got a wallet. Was tempted by the Zara blazer, but in the end didn't get it.
December
Final stage of my thesis. Pretty stressed-up but manage to get it through finally. Had my first serious presentation which turns out to be relatively good. Went to Kajin's place for baking party, made my first ever cookies in my life, but failed however. Hang out in Christmas Market in Duisburg, Essen, and Bochum with Jia-Uei, Tharsis, Adrian, Jason, and many others. Played badminton every weekend and even played badminton when it was -2degrees lolx. Had a great christmas eve and christmas(which i'll update it later) and also a good new year's eve.

Man, I'm really in debts in terms of blog post. I mean, I had alot of things to update and I've told some of them that I would update but everytime I'm just lazy or finding excuse not to do so. Its year end and I'm suppose to do a annual round up of the year just like in the past. In addition to that this year I would do a 4 years round up in Duisburg, Germany. Oh by the way, I proudly announce that I've unofficially finished my studies. Unofficial because I still have to wait for my marks to be sent to the examination commitee and then wait for my certificates.
Ok I'll at least do a short update here. I've been seriously enjoying my last days in Germany. But first let me talk about the serious stuff first -- The presentation and Thesis. After 4 months of hard work, it's finally done. It's finally handed in to the Uni. It's finally there. The slack shirt and pants I bought for just for the presentation paid off. I didn't wear the coat but I wore my blue blazer, which made me look 70% formal and 30% casual. The presentation started early as everyone was there already, though there're people who are late. Normally in our Uni for bachelor thesis, only the people from that department will attend plus 1 or 2 professors. In my case, there were 3 Prof, 4 Dr Eng, and about 20 others. Ok there're not here just for my thesis, they have event after that. But it made me felt very tense as I've never seen so many high ranked people in a bachelor thesis presentation before. Anyway, I still did what i'm suppose to do, I was abit nervous in the beginning, but after a while I was fine. The speech went well, and the question session went well but there's one Prof who's not involve in my thesis, asked blardy deep questions, as if I'm a PhD student. But the good thing is that my supervisor spotted the difficulty of that questions and answered for me. Other than that, I tackled every other question well. I'm not sure bout the Professors, but for the colleagues in my department, they were satisfied and they praise my good presentation, including the boss. Ok he mentioned there're parts where i could have done better but in overall it was good.
After the presentation on wednesday, I was like suddenly lost of goal in life di lolx. I mean i had this feeling that i'm suddenly free from everything. On thursday n friday i was like just sleeping and playing PES at home. Good thing is that on Wednesday itself I went Bochum to visit Tharsis and he treat me a "nice" spanish meal and starbucks. Saturday I went Essen for shopping(window) and the famous annual christmas market. After that a tiring badminton session. Today I had an outing with friends in a cozy coffee bar and then a walk in Duisburg's christmas market. For Christmas this year, I will have a small Racklett party(some sort of BBQ cheese thingy) and a Siedler(a type of boardgame) session. I mean in this 4 years, I never had a good Christmas celebration except for 2005 where I was in Ireland. Throughout this 2 weeks holiday I had some plans already. I mean, I've been really enjoying my life in this few months comparing to the whole 4 years. Honestly, if its not my parents and CNY and meeting friends, I would start to think this place is more suitable for me. Yes I do admit I've been dying to come home and complaining bout it all the time. I guess all I can say is that the money factor is bothering me. I don't want to waste anymore of my parents money so lets do it quick and finish it. Of course some people ask me to try to get a job here, but I didn't take it seriously because right now my primary plan is to do masters. Depending on where my masters is, I might then consider working here if I'm studying masters in Germany. Yes I still face the language and culture barrier, but this I felt is the least problem of all.
Anywayz, nobody knows what will the future be. So let it be......

Man, its too long I didn't update that I don't know where to start. But I'll make sure I'll include all the important agenda from the last update till now. I don't even know where I end last time and I'm lazy to read my own post again.
So, lets start with serious stuff first. So, finally! really Finally!!! I am 2 steps away from graduating. One is to hand up the Thesis document OFFICIALLY to the examination committee, and the other is the presentation. Considering this is my first Real Important presentation, and despite it will only last for 20mins ++, I still splash some money to get a suitable dressing. So, I can forget about LV, Gucci, Armani etc...Then I can forget about Pierre Cardin, Bugatti, Hugo Boss CK, etc etc. But I don't want to go pasar or some cheap shop to get chaplak slack and pants. So, the brand that I went for is ESPRIT. I bought pair of slack pants and shirt for 80EUR. Don't question me is it worth it or not. I'll answer u now. YES. Firstly, considering that the original price are 50Euro for the shirt and 80Euro for the pants, it's definately a good deal. Secondly, most likely I'll be in Masters. Otherwise work. Either one of them, I need to have a proper formal wear. So why not spend now? This is how I MIGHT dress for the presentation. What MIGHT not occur is that I MIGHT not wear the coat, since I obviously can't dress better than the Professor right??
Yes yes, you can't see the shirt and pants. I will take pics of them when I have my tripod ok?? It's damn freaking hard to take it without a help of someone else or tripod. Unless, u just want to see the shirt and pants...not me posing with it. Well, then I'll be damn disappointed lolx.
Wuts next?? Yeah. I've booked my flight back. Sadly I don't want to announce it here. I'll let my close friends know bout it. As you might wonder why am I so low profile this time, well honestly I am not really excited to come back other than being able to celebrate CNY with my family. Anyhow, I will announce when the timing is right.
I would also like to take this opportunity to say thank you to my lovely guitar for accompanying me throughout the 1 1/2 years. Because of the guitar(and also other factor), my skills have improved and I found back my interest in MAKING music which was lost since form 4/5. Oh, it's not dead, just that I sold it to someone else. Well, I have to since its gonna be troublesome to bring home. I hope the new owner will take good care of it.
Wut else? Ahh yeah. The other day, a few of us visited a German's baking fest to welcome the month of christmas. Its a tradition to bake cookies during this month. Of course we(me, Jia Uei, Quan Wei, Adrian) also participated in baking cookies. Well, the outcome wasn't as expected but hey take note that the four of us are engineers and have NO experience in baking! But we did enjoy the process of doing it. The funny part is that we don't even listen to instructions at all. We were told to use hand to mix the ingredients, we used the mixer machine instead. In the end it turns out that we have to use extra flour coz it doesn't stick and consequently affect the texture of the product after baking. The recipe book stated clearly to make it into a dimension of 8x20x3cm, and the best thing is that we actually took a RULER to measure it lolx. The worse thingy is that we actually forgot to put SUGAR in our ingredient lolx!!!!! Imagine cookies without sugar?!!! haha!!!
This is our intended cookies :-
This is where we were told to use hand, but fark it, why do we create the mixer if we don't use it lolx!!
Honestly until this stage we were still full of hopes that we can surprise everyone...still looks good
Before baking. Hmm, still doesn't look that bad despite having too much flour around.
This is after baking. WTF? wut is that??
See what is professionally done??
This is what i called cookies...
Aha....well we do have some remaining mixture, so we decided not to waste it and we made the Jalur Gemilang Cookies.....yeah!!
Well haha...clearly baking cookies is not our thing.

I gotta say, despite having those blardy emotional feelings of being so close yet so far, I should say I'm really enjoying my last few weeks here. Yeah though this thesis thingy is dragging me back, but it doesn't really matter since I'm not really in a hurry to come back. I've just discussed stuff wit my mom, and most likely I'll end up in Singapore if I am doing my masters and I get admission to the lion city. So, I guess I should really appreciate my last few weeks in Germany.
Lets see what I've done the last few weeks. Last last friday, I went to a party organized by Tharsis's church friends. Was not a religious party, just party. We had food, live band, pool, KTV(of course English songs), Wii and much more. All of us were forced to sing at least one song and though I was really desperate to sing more, I try to hide myself because I have a bad soar-throat. In the end me and Tharsis sang Mambo No.5 and did entertained the crowd. Man, that was Form 2 stuff and I still remember a few of us in Uncle Bus singing loud in the bus. Then there was a pool table there. The table sux though as it's not totally flat and the cue stick is totally warned out, but I still had lots of fun as its free and i played lots of round which obviously i won't be able to do so in malaysia. So next time if I'm rich I'll definately get a personal pool table. I didn't play Wii though as my arm is still injured from the badminton session last month.
Other than that I had lots of meeting with Thars' church friend. Some of it we did some religious studies but it was ok. Sorry to say, despite listening to lots of it, I still prefer to be religious-free. But it's interesting to have some bible discussion, share of opinion between Christians and non believers. I actually attended few cell groups before in Malaysia, but I find that the cell group here are more relaxing, less awkward to non-Christians like me. Maybe it's because they don't put all the attention on me, compare to those i had in malaysia. Back home, it's like everything line in the bible they will explain and then ask me what is my opinion. I mean, of course i understand u want me to participate in the discussion, but if every line i hav to answer, then i'll get annoyed. It happens also not just in religion studies but in normal lecture. Imagine ur professor ask u every single question during ur favourite subject, I bet until a point u will start to hate that subject either. No offense to any Christians out there. I hope that u listen from a point of view of a non-Christian, when u invite someone to church/cell-group, don't give too much pressure to them. By the way, I'm not really sure why but I do like to attend these meetings especially here in Germany.
Anyway, enuf of those stuff. I just watched 007 on Monday. Well despite some bad critism, I kinda like this bond especially with monkey face Daniel Craig. Maybe because I like it when they use less Gadgets and the agent is less Superman-like, meaning he's not undestructable. Last bond was good, at least we saw he get whipped in his balls, and this one lots of banging here and there. And of course Bond girl was hot, the one from Hitman.
Also, despite now running tight in budget, I got myself a new wallet though. I love my old one, but unfortunately its time to change. Because it is too small and i like to put my wallet in the back pocket, 9 out of 10 of my cards were broken. Good thing is that the crack on my bank card didn't affect the chip so i still able to redraw money from the ATM. So I got myself a Marc O' Polo.
Hoenstly, I still prefer RENOMA in terms of the brand, but this Marc O' Polo seems to be a marge larger designer brand in Europe, I was told. Maybe they just want to comfort me because I've already bought it and there's no turning back. Anyhow, it's still a good deal though. On that day when I was doing shopping, I walked into Zara and there was this Blazer which is quite similar to my white blazer, but looks much more casual and stylish. It cost half the original price and since its Zara, I was really tempted to get it. In the end i gave up the idea, coz i don't think I'll wear that often in Malaysia. People will look at me one kind and start thinking to themselves, "this LCLY fella dress like Ah Beng!". Well at least this is what we'll do if we saw someone doing that in MV. HOWEVER, when I get my Deposit back, I might consider walking into Zara again and grab it. YEAH, I'm AH BENG!
What else? Oh I actually learnt how to cook the "mui choi kau yok" already. Well according to Kennysia's Kenny learns to cook post, "I have been told many times that women find men who knows how to cook sexy and attractive". That's what he said. So, am I sexy now?? YEAH!

I know it's been a while since i update myself here. These few weeks it's all about gatherings, small parties, Thesis, and going friend's place for dinner. Also because I'm not able to connect to the net all the time unlike last time.
Anyway, Like my status in facebook, I had a haircut. I went to a chinese salon this time which is cheap and i thought maybe chinese hairstylist knows better what kinda haircut i wanted. When he asked me how should he do my hair, i told him not too nerdy, and that guy was like "huh?". The moment he gave me that response I've already expect another "German" hairstyle, the squarish soldier style.
But actually it doesn't turn out that bad, I felt. Well at least most of my colleagues in the Institute and my fellow Malaysians here felt it looks better than my long hair. Here's the pic...
What's worse is that, now everybody tells me I look like HIM!
WTF??? A side by side comparison....
I'd say maybe the glasses made me look like him......not the haircut!
See....now i don't look like him anymore without the glasses!!
I mean, it's not that bad if i look like him since his also a star, but the fact is that I'm not as good looking as him, so felt paiseh(embarrassed) when people say that.

There's no connection between those 2 by the way. It's just that this post is about the both of them.
I finally have the courage to send my laptop for servicing. The main reason why I didn't do it long ago weas because I couldn't imagine 5 days without a lappie. I've actually experienced those days before when I bought my desktop and found out that the graphic card was not working well with the motherboard and so have to return and order a new card. Actually it wasn't that hard at all and it's actually a good way to trin my self not to be too dependent on computer these days.
Well, though I've solved most of my problems from the series of unfortunate events that happened to me last month, one thing that still remain is the Emo problem. Exactly one year ago from today Kelsen and I were on the bus from London to Cardiff. We had a night in cardiff and visited some of cardiff's beautiful scenary, which includes the Welsh chics during the night. They were so different from the Dinosaur German chics. The cardiff chics have great body figure and most importantly they were wearing really sexy & seductive outfits. Man, I gotta tell you despite the super cold temperature thery were wearing so little cloth, while Kelsen and I were wearing about 3 layers of clothings and yet still felt cold. You gotta love British chics. Cardiff was just one of the stops in our great UK trip. Before that we visited leeds and Manchester. Though it was my second time going to Old Trafford, but it's so different going wif my best bro. about 2 days from now one year ago we left CK's apartment to Bakerstreet station to meet up with Soo Fan and her friend June. Then we walked around London, covering alot of places. Though I don't remember exactly the whole agenda, but I remember we visited Hyde Park, Westminister, Tower Bridge, Tower of London, British Museum, St. Paul's Cathedral, Harrods and many more.
Though I was sick during the last days in London and despite some bad incident that happen to the hosts, overall the trip was fantastic. Second best after the Genting/Singapore trip.
Back to present. I always mentioned about the whole jiwang feeling about being so close yet so far. Today my friend Adrian gave me the whole pack of 3 in 1 Ipoh Old Town Coffee. Honestly it smells like soya sauce and doesn't taste as good as any oft he coffee here, but it reminds me of home. It taste exactly like those coffee we had in coffee shops in Malyasia. Then these few days when I login to facebook to check out the SJ4P group, suddenly I saw 70 new wall posts! Normally at most 2 or 3 per day or sometimes none, and only regular active members will spam it. Those spamming sessions made me felt more desperate to go home and have gatherings with them. The last time I had a grand gathering with them was in Lucas's house 4 years ago. The second grand was 3 years ago during nD's bday in Thai Sabye Sabye @ OUG. It's been too long and I really missed them.
I had a general question for you guys. Of course most of you have your own life now, but do you guys ever missed your primary/high school or college life? OR it's just me being such an emo bozo having flashbacks too often????
