Most of my friends would probably agree with me when I say that I'm not the type to to type long mushy post about my feelings even for someone dear to me. In fact most would say that I'm not the type to post any posts at all. I guess most guys are like that (I'm talking about the mushy post thing). Ever so often however, there are times that a guy would like to do something special for his someone special. Even though it's not much anyway, i would still like to proclaim my love to the most important woman in my life
*currently*....I am of course talking about my mother! (sry Rita but mother comes first..especially today). So to Mother who art thou in Malaysia which feels like Heaven since Hellboys are in Australia, this first son of yours would like to wish you with all my heart a
Happy Mother's Day!
Though here we live in a house,
There we had a home to call our own.
The responsibilities that I had (though rarely do),
Now feels like chores to be done by the freeloader.
Rules of the house that once seemed acceptable,
Have know become heavily enforced laws.
What privacy I once had,
I wish I could enjoy as frequently here.
Over here I'm merely alive,
But over there I had a life.
Now this has less to do with living with strict grandparents,
But more to do with living without our loving parents.
So though we may be LIGHTYEARS from perfect,
Without a doubt we all know how lucky we are.
Though it may not be much,
I hope that via this “poem” of-sorts,
This truly thankful and definitely undeserving son of yours,
would like to express his heartfelt feelings to both his parents.
Mom and Dad,
From Daryl, Henry and Geoffrey,
We Love and Miss You Very Very Much!
I am unsure whether mah & yeh should read this. I don't mean to be disrespectful or anything.
If the *currently* word worries you or anything, don't worry. That's just a joke. Don't take it too seriously. lol.

Most of my friends probably noe this aldy but for the benefit of those who don't...
I'm leaving Malaysia forever tomorrow!!
In fact our flight will be departing at 10pm, 18th Jan 2009. That'll be the date I leave ~18yrs of my life behind and start all ovr again...in a foreign country. Worse of all, I'll be arriving on a Monday!! I'm not fond of Mondays.
In retrospect, i should've posted a whole lot more blog posts. I've so much i wanted to blog about like about my trip to HK, my PSP, outings with frens and GF but i've been super bz these past few weeks...lotsa procrastination to be done.
Did you know?
Packing 18yrs of your life into a suitcase is not as easy as it sounds.
HAIZZ..there's so much i'm gonna miss! Where else in the world do you hv to beg taxis to take you to your destination? Do the Chinese in Aus pepper their conversations with profanities as much as we do? Who will replace the inconsiderate smokers who so eagerly pollute my air and invade my personal space? Despite its many many many shortcomings, Malaysia still is a very nice country and i luv it. Not enough to keep me here though.
meh! 2 l8 4 dat now. That's all in the past! Time for my future to begin!
Goodbye my beloved Malaysian friends! If any of you ever come down to Sydney, feel free to drop by my place at Bexley. Assuming of course you have food & lodging all taken care of. I don't want any leechers! Sayonara Pasar Malams and Mamak stalls! Good riddance frustrating internet connections! Hopefully the more dependable internet connection will encourage me to blog more! Don't count on it though. Here I come Australia! Land of beaches, beer and BBQs! Of course Rita will be waiting for me there too. Guess i won't be needing an adjustment period after all! Wo0t!
Signed,
Most Loyal Defector..

I'm not dead. Tnx 4 asking.
Well, 2day was d last non-exam day of college. Final exams on Mon. In 5 days time, i would be graduating from FIC. Time flies when ur under pressure eh? To commemor8 my imminent graduation, i've changed the theme of my blog to a more programmer-friendly theme. If u dun understand any of the codes or syntax, feel free to sign up for Taylors Foundation in Computing. They hold tea parties for you b4 u graduate u noe.
To think that doing one year of FIC in TCPJ = time taken 4 me to write 20 posts. Boy, i must've been extremely bz.
Unfortunately for me, Aus Unis don't rly accept my foundation course. U cannot believe the troubles i (actually my mom) went through in order to get into a Syd Uni. Fortunately, there was at least one uni willing to accept me. So i guess i'll be going to Macquarie Uni by mid-Jan next yr.
To be fair, TCPJ wasn't a complete waste of time. In the space of a year in FIC, i hv learnt a great deal. For example, i found out that i am not bad in C coding, I now know the basics of JAVA and HTML, I haz made a short movie (more on this l8r) n lvled up my photoshop skillz. Of course these are just some of the minor changes. Most importantly, i've managed to make a number of good frens. Well some of them are pretty good, others...just plain evil! However, without a doubt, the biggest change i went through in the course of 08' would have to be Jit's + Dennis's + Wei's corrupting me wit d otaku virus. Haizz...oh well, like dey say "If u can't beat them, join them". I am only too happy to oblige =J
P.S: I like megane/meganekko characters but tsunderes will do just fine. De arimasu.

The following are 4 autistic children in the Ampang Dyslexia Association Centre who I have had the privilege of teaching, playing with and being an abang to during my recent July hols. I am grateful to my mom, the association an to God for giving me a chance to do something constructive during my hols instead of slacking of like some of my classmates.
Shahrir is the probably the one who became the most attached to me. Cikgu Mariam (who's the Teacher-in-charge) tells me that everytime Shah hears my car pull up in the driveway he starts asking "Abang datang?" Shahrir's disabilities is known in the medical world as a "Global", this means that he suffers from everything. A bit of dyslexia, a bit of autism etc. That being said, he's actually quite good. In fact he'll be graduating from the Autistic class into the normal classes. Unfortunately, he's still a bit lax when it comes to sharing.
Iskandar is just soo cute, complete with baby-face, long eyelashes, mischievous yet innocent demeanour and child-like fascination with everything. He's afraid of loud noises which explains his phobia of rain, specifically rain & thunder (just like Haruhi Fujioka!). Also, when there are loud noises nearby, he closes his ears and starts spouting gibberish/random phrases like "Good Morning Teacher" and most commonly "Osa, osa, osa". You just have to hear how cute he is!! His favourite word is radio and he has a strange attachment to said device. Academically, he get's distracted really easily however, he's forte is maths. He can easily count up to 40 whilst the others falter around the 20 mark. Loli-shota anyone?
Chun Hong is well...for lack of a better word..untamed. Seeing as he's quite "new" to the class, Cikgu Mariam is still trying to get him to sit still. He regularly cries but the way he cries is hard to describe. He often cries out in LOUD bursts (Iskandar normally starts sputtering gibberish at this point) but then he'll get distracted quickly and settle down just as rapidly...it's a really weird potentially ear-drum perforating experience. Beneath his 'untamed' exterior, I believe he is normal. It's just that fate dealt him a bad hand. He has a tendency to spout completely random phrases and sing random (usually Chinese) songs. His favourite is CNY songs but also sings a medley of english songs.
Edzra (I think this is how his name is spelt). I know little about this boy since his attendance to the school is quite irregular. He has OCD and throws a tantrum when his schedule gets messed up. I think his disability is something like severe dyslexia. Accordingly, he takes a loooong time to learn something. His speech is also kinda slurred and difficult to hear. He loves puzzles.
