My 24th Birthday

Received this birthday gift from my fellow colleagues as we are crazy about the "Words with Friends" game recently and had a great dinner with them at The Old Brown Shoe.

Took half day leave on the day and celebrated with her at Jurong Point...again....lol ! Had buffet dinner at Kuishin Bo after movie "Just Go With It".

Passed by Jurong Lake before going home and it's the best opportunity to try out our new camera.

Nice shot huh?

Went home and celebrated with the house mates before the end of my birthday this year.

My Birthday Cake - Yoshi !!

 Had another Japanese dinner with the other uni mates at Sushi Tei on the weekend. It's good to see all of us gather together again.

Thanks everyone, really enjoy the moment that we spent together...
and now..vivalive turns 24th !!

No More Exam in My Life

4th May 2010 is the last day that I sit for exam, another step closer to my graduation before my FYP presentation. Hopefully there will be no exam papers in my life anymore because I dislike being graded by other people and I disagree the education system that emphasize a lot on results and left us no space for thinking and personal development. Feel relief after the collection of my last exam paper and did not go anywhere for celebration as well. Instead, I had lunch with her and started to plan for the things to be done in the future.

Collected our house key, signed up for cable TV, broadband and will be shifting in this coming Saturday. Time to say goodbye to Hall 8 after staying here for 4 years. Like this place because of its strategic location, the friendly cleaners and the caring aunties that always give me foods and drinks. The most important is that I met all of them here - The Tigers, the 41 Buddies.

Throughout these 4 years, I don't know what have I learnt from the university (perhaps don't know how to explain what have I learnt), which I believe most of the people will agree with me. Being absent for most of the lectures, I bet no professor will remember me including my FYP prof whom I only met him for less than 5 times. Somehow I will miss the times during primary/secondary school life when teachers still remember me when I go back.

Going into the society soon, have more commitment and responsibilities coming. There will be no excuse for being childish anymore and I need to be wise in financial planning and time management. But I know that there will always be someone who will support me, guide me whenever I have problem.

Thanks Dad, Mom

and the special one...

When we grow up...

We never play with the birthday cake anymore...

We never torture the birthday boy anymore...

Birthday cake may not be necessary during celebration...
Luckily I still have a small one this year =)

Lesser people remember your birthday (excluding reminder from Facebook), but those who remember are your true friends...

This is what we call "brothers'...

Same Place, Same People, Same Pose

Feel happy to have dinner with all of them again...
Everyone is getting busier and busier...
Rushing FYPs, looking for jobs, houses and other commitment...
To me, it's kinda difficult to gather all of them.
Thanks Lee Hong for organizing this !
Thanks Zi Ling, Lin Sin & Christine for the Häagen-Dazs Ice Cream !
Thanks everyone for the treat !

Celebrated my 22nd birthday at Ajisen Ramen Jurong Point last year...

This Year,
Same place, Same People, Same Pose...

and vivalive turns 23 !

My Chinese New Year 2010

Took my flight that worth $1 back home and meet up with the relatives during Chinese New Year. Feel surprise that most of the cousins (who are very young) and aunts are using facebook and requested to tag them in the photos.

The cousin bros

捞生 with the Cheng's family as usual...

Met up with friends in KL and went to see the Chinese New Year decorations around beside watching Chinese New Year movies...

Visited Mr. & Mrs Pang the night before I left and took few pictures with their cute daughter...

Happy Chinese New Year again !!

My 2009

In 2009...

1)Had my internship for 22weeks, preparing myself to face the society soon. Learn a lot of related knowledge and received my first angpau in Singapore Dollar during Chinese New Year.

2)Visited my form teacher in primary school after graduating 10 years. Missed the old days in primary school...

3)Being inspired by Boon Ming during internship period, I start to blog more often and installed Nuffnang, hoping to earn some side income. Apparently, I failed....earned a total of $38.36 by 28th Dec 2009, can't even cash out.


4)Felt and fear the side effect of gambling, where I can lost few hundreds in one night at the casino when I can't even earn that amount back through my part time job.

5)Earn more and spend more in Singapore without worrying much about the currency exchange rate. Instead of multiplying 2.5x for everything that I purchased in Singapore to convert it into Ringgit Malaysia, I divided 2.5x the cost of the items that I found in Malaysia to convert it into Singapore Dollar.

6)Took a plane since 1997 and travelled to Hong Kong with 2 of my uni mates for 7 days. It's a wonderful place and I wish to revisit the place again.

7)A meaningful and happening holidays for me, went Redang with The Tigers after we have been planning it since 3 years ago.

8)Being fined 3 times on the same day for speeding during my trip to Ipoh. Total cost of RM900. (No screen shot taken because it's being paid online using my dad's account)

9)During one of the sleepless nights, inspiration and ideas cross over my mind when I am planning on my last performance in NTU. Acted as Encik Najis in the skid "Jutawan Kampung", based on the story of "Slumdog Millionaire"

10)Did more short clips related to family and friendship, spreading the love messages to all the friends in MSA. Improved a lot on video editting, though just using Windows Movie Maker. Since then, friends will ask me for advice and ideas when they need help. (Kinda happy and proud of it)

11)Won myself a Nike bag worth SG$50, the grand prize in a lucky draw event for the 1st time in my life.


11)Good things happen when you least expect them. Met someone special during Merdeka Night and here we are now...


12)Went to Melaka at least once a year as usual, but this time with my parents and her...

12)After 22 years, that's the first time I think that I am fat when I weigh more than 60kg. My father told me that I will look exactly like him 30 years later.

2009 is a good year to me. Thanks to everyone who helped me through out this year, I appreciate it and wish you all have a good year ahead.

Hong Kong Trip 15th to 21st June 09 - Day 5

Visited Hong Kong Legislative Council 香港立法会, the building that is familiar to you if you are a fan on HK TVB Drama.

Then, we took bus to reach Stanley 赤柱.
This place is famous for its Stanley Prison and also Stanley Market.

There are also lots of pubs by the seaside,

perhaps a romantic place to hang out during the night...


Went to one of the famous temple,天后古庙
right before head back to motel and meet up with Siew Hong.


Hong Hum was the last place that we went after our dinner...

Yea, the Hong Kong Coliseum, 香港体育馆
the famous multipurpose indoor stadium for sports event and concerts.
And this is the artist performing on that day...

你当我是浮夸吧~~

Hong Kong Trip 15th to 21st June 09 - Day 4

On the fourth day, I decided to meet up with my friend, Matrix. I knew him through Seal Online when I was just 17 and he is the first net friend that I met who is from other country. He was having exam on that morning so I went to the Happy Valley while waiting for him.


It is one of the most famous racecourse in the world and I sneaked into the building to take pictures as it was under renovation during that period.


In the afternoon, we finally arrived in Disneyland after we had our lunch.



Immediately we rushed to the Adventureland to catch The Festival of the Lion King. Only manage to take a few shots of The Lion King because it keep on moving....


Then, we rode on a raft to reach the Tarzan's Tree House !!
There are books around the area to tell you more about Tarzan...


Next up, we played Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters in Tommorrowland. It's a shooting game which you need to shoot as many Evil Emperor Zurg as possible along the ride to determine your rank in the space.


We were among the earliest to queue for the hottest musical show at the Disney's Storybook Theater - The Golden Mickey !! It's really entertaining as you can see a lot of the Disney's characters performing on stage, including Toy Story, Lilo & Stitch, Mulan, The Little Mermaid, Beauty & The Beast...

And of course...Mickey and his friends !

Fireworks started blasting to the sky at the Sleeping Beauty Castle at 8pm.

That's the last show of the day and we left after we had our dinner.
It's a memorable day with Matrix and
thanks for his guide whenever I need information about Hong Kong.
Hopefully we will meet again someday in the future...

Nice to meet you !
