Witnessed an old lady falling down an escalator in mid valley today.. O.O
And, Towerthon is really crazy.
Eclipse
Found my whole pocket full of eclipse mint pieces after tuition today because I didn't close the capsule properly..
Alice in Wonderland
Watched Alice in Wonderland beside this unknown tudung girl in the twin seats. Apart from the awkward feeling, the movie wasn't that bad.. But not that good either.. =D
Power Run, MSSMKL and Sports Day
Just went through a really "sporty" first week of the month. XD
Whether if it was unfair or not, I got tired and just continued watching most of the athletes of the first lane get into some sort of trouble in many races..
Temenggung lost to Syahbandar in the end and apparently they didn't count marks for cross country cause if they did, we would have won by a lot.. Haihh..
Felt so relieved after finding out that I didn't have to run any events because my legs were aching.. =S
Jasreel and I had a terrifying wait for our 1500m event which only began at 4 in the evening! Spend most of the time chilling out at the SMK Sri Permaisuri's canteen.. Khishan is damn horny. Watched 4x100m finals. Jazreel and I ended up last and 2nd last respectively in 1500m. =D Left the stadium at 5, went to tuition at 5.30... Arghh
Starting with the latest..
March 6th
I had mixed feelings after Sports Day It was fun, but somehow felt a little unsatisfying.. =/
Came to school early to get dressed with the shirts, props and banners but it started raining heavily not long after that. Such a downer as we had to wait for it to stop, while knowing that we'd be marching and running on a paddy field not long after that.
Shortly after marching, the 80m sprints began. Nothing was wrong except that it was bit muddy. As soon as the 200m events began, people started to question the cones which represent the starting points as they appeared really far apart. We had quartermasters and officials present who claimed that they did accurate measurements about the track.
starting point gap in the 200m events
So the first 200m event began, and if I'm not mistaken it was the U-15 girls category.. Our temenggung runner on the 1st lane slipped at the end of the first curve while the runners on the second last and last lane got 2nd and 1st respectively as they were well clear of the muddy turning point, leading many to believe that the distance between the starting points were unfair.

Spent the most of the first week of March at MSSMKL
March 1st
Felt so relieved after finding out that I didn't have to run any events because my legs were aching.. =S
Cheered for our school's athletes.
March 2nd
Didn't have any events again.. Yugan went for long jump, Abhi had 400m sprinting. The guys had 4x100m events.

March 4th
Unexpectedly had to go for MSSMKL for the 4th time because Jasreel, Yugan, Hafizani and I got drafted in for the 4x400m event at the last minute.. Azrul and the gang who were supposed to take part in it pulled out because they were exhausted and wanted to earn points in the school's raptai for sports day. The 4x400m event was due at 9.30.
We reached at 7.50 and spent most of the time warming up and discussing our running and receiving techniques. Yugan had a lot of problems finding for a pair of spikes and managed to find one just 20 minutes before it began. Runners from first to last : Me, Yugan, Zani, Jasreel. After all the hype and stuff, we got last.. =D
It was 10.45, Yugan and I decided to take off on foot for the Salak South station in hopes of making it for the sports dry run. After 20 minutes of walking, we took the LRT to the Masjid Jamek station and made an unnecessary walk to Central Market to continue on to Bangsar.
Bought an old town mocha drink to accompany me for another 15 minute walk under the hot sun all the way back to school. Reached school at 12, was fooling around in the Teratak when I accidentally cut my under-thigh and calf by a faulty sharp-edged metal chair. Went straight to the clinic to bandage the gash and returned to school again at 1.50 for my house's marching rehearsal. =S
March 5th
Last sports dry run after assembly until 11. Tug-O-war for the losing bracket began at around 12. L1 and P1 Temenggung was against Syahbandar for the 3rd position. Both our categories lost..
February 28th
Hardest cross country track ever, and I thought our school's route this year was bad enough. I finished in 55 minutes although it was a 6.2 km track! We ran in the jungle for the majority of the time! Really windy, narrow dangerous, steep routes and human traffic jams. Apparently the track was converted from the world-renowned mountain biking route and it was also the most we have ever suffered / sweated. My whole pants was literally dripping of sweat. My sister finished in an hour and 5 minutes but she got 5th in her category.
The lunch coupon in my trousers was stuck to the pocket and tore as i tried taking it out to redeem it.. Cold milo and meehoon never tasted so good! XD

Hopefully we can do better for Towerthon on the 21st.. =D
Cross Country 10', CNY, DVDs, Maids, Returning to Melaka
2th February
Cross country was fun, managed to get 5th this time. Kinda expected it cause I got lazy in my training.. =S Was skeptical of the track's true distance so Andrew measured the distance on google maps and it was actually 8km! No wonder all of us took such a long time to finish!
The top 5 was all temenggung for L1! Woot! Azrul, Andrew, Yew Lum, Hafizani, Me
15th February
Ahh, first dinner in JB was steamboat with all sorts of dishes. Had fun playing as the dealer in poker after that. Bagged a solid RM10 even though I didn't even bring any money to gamble at my uncle's house. XD
16th February
"Ruby" said that our eyes, ears, nostrils, hands and limbs are not exactly matching to each other (i.e one eye is slightly smaller than the other). All this time I had thought that only our legs and limbs aren't exactly symmetrical. o.o
For breakfast, we ate some roti kosong and teh tarik for a change..
For lunch, we came across this "Korean Family Restaurant"in JB and they probably serve one of the best korean food I've ever tasted!
Had another lavish meal at a typical Chinese cuisine for dinner again.. Been stuffing myself these past few days. =O
17th February
Been spending the last 3 days in Johor Bahru for CNY. Gotta admit that the piracy here is such a blessing! Dual-layer DVDs in a full blu-ray casing for just 10 bucks. XD
Went to Jusco mall in Tebrau city this afternoon to watch Valentine's Day at TGV cinemas. Popcorn was so much better than GSC but they're so inefficient at distributing the tickets. Waited a reaaally long time just to get them.. There were so many people lining up!
18th February
Learnt that the super-nice maid we used to live with in JB steals. Too bad our relatives only found out after she had left 2 years ago.. =S
We convinced our parents to stop by Melaka on the way back. We had our lunch in Ole Sayang, the very same place Andrew, Ray, Weng, Gav, Jon and I spent our dinner during our Melaka trip.. =D
After lunch, we took off for the Lao Qian Ice Cafe in Jonker Walk.

crowded street
Melaka was, of course, flocked by many tourists and locals who were coming home for Chinese New Year. There were so many people compared to the chilled-out Melaka we knew back then in December.
still as good as before!
