I'm back... from the dead!

This would be something that i would call as "lazy" or "couldn't be bothered" or just "blur" but my apologies for not updating the blog for some many moons or months or for what time cares... Anywayz, today is the 9th of July which the following day would be something i need to remember.... My birthday.... Sure is the most joyful thing to hear when your birthday comes along.. friends to hang out... dinner.... crazy antics... the works... but today i thought i might do some recap on my life... which i never wanted to do except if there something I wanna say that is important to me. Currently being 19 years of age and soon within a few hours i would turn into a young adult... with different things in mind and responsibilities to look after. Its not something i sought after right now... but in due time... its not a must... but its a purpose. Back when i was young... Life was simple and good... Things were a lot easier to "digest". My parents and myself would be like just living in a apartment having simple meals together. From being so simple then and now being bless with many things... i couldn't care less about how life become comfortable with the place i live in or the good food i eat (which i like) and the nice house i stay... sure its something i am thankful for and now in it, but more importantly for having a home; family and friends.

Besides on how i grew up, I thought to myself this afternoon how carefree I was, being the person who is always laughing, having good company, and living every minute of it. As we age, things change and we have move on. At first, I didn't like or i couldn't accept the fact that "I'm growing old" because I miss the good times when i was a immature kid, doing stuff that sparks laughter among peers but frustration upon teachers; the times when i had my first heartbreak, or having great memories to cherish and to think it just happen to fast in this time line. Yet, on the other hand, There's more to life than just having these great memories. Its good to cherish but it is also important to move on to the next phase in life. Most of us think that life is just having a good time... but we aren't brought into this earth for no apparent reason.. So we have a purpose you say? Yes. Positive. I think there's more to life than living large and fast (which i myself agree, do you?) but we forget the finer things in life which is to be somebody. The personification of my somebody is not just a businessman but a philantropist; not just a doctor, but a Good Samaritan; not just a lawyer but a believer in truth and justice. My point is that all we ever care is about money and living comfortably... we forget...

Personally, as i look back in my life... it was good... with challenges i faced and seeing many different faces. Truly life has its reward, being in that journey. For that, I thank God for instilling values and to guide me to continue to learn more in my walk of life. So for now... I spend a few hours being 19 and tomorrow becoming 20. To draw a conclusion of my delirious talk or yak-ing of stuff.. I think it's time to become a man... not man as in what everyone perceive as facial hair, physical look, acting like one... but being one who faces things without fear, learning to act wise and being responsible.

So as i sit down reminiscing my years... Here are some of my tales from the past, or should i say "images". Thanks all who are with me... Cheers

P.S. Blogging has commenced...

procrastinate.....

After so long from USA trip, New Years and CNY... I must apologise for my *uncommitted* effort in updating the blog... as usual.. some people know me very well as the person who talk the walk... or to you viewers who are a little confuse... I don't keep up to my word... Anyways, enough of rubbish... I will begin updating this blog by March and asking for your support to promote my blog... my blog however is not my blog... is your updates on your (and my) favourite things, issues, or what ever stuff you like to know about. In the end, my goal is not to create a blog about me, but about everybody! So send links, help me with this or send suggestions... Blessed Year to all!

Part 3 of Penang Fellowsheep Journey...

So, here it goes... after makan... we went of to Bukit Bendera Penang Hill... (As a penangnite i would say nothing special la... but sometimes to go up there and kill your mind from worries... is good... but have to travel up in a 10m/per hour (exageration)rail is just horrendous... AS soon as we arrived and got the tickets... we realized we have to wait for like 2++ hours just for the ride itself... so... We go to where bollywood film meet romance, government officials collect taxes to produce electricity and probably for dinosaurs or king kong to go and Pang Pui, Pang Sai and Pang Jiu (Hokkien for Fart, Big and Small Business or Shit and Piss). So, being stupid like myself, had to do stupid photos and videos la... as well as enjoying the scenery and peacefulness of a damn as deep as few hundred meters...oooooooo....then after that... pergi Bukit Bendera... here are the pictures...















Then... later that night... we celebrated a special person with a special birthday "bash" for a very charming friend... Joel Vergis... we had barbeque and loads of new people we meet... not to mention a friend who is a crad we found on the beach.... interesting...


ready, set, SET UP!

Say Hello to OUR little friend.... MR.Crab


Dinner time....

But that wasnt it.... we had to do something to Joel... to compensate our brainstorming on how to get or "kenakan" him on his bday... so... we sabo... but not what joel thinks... we may have send him to the pool... we may have force him to finish a big bottle of SKOL... we had something else....








Well... that was it.... the night ended in bed... Next day, we sought of chill out and have breakfast and all.. and we when to Joel's homegrown church somewhere in Air Itam (I think).. then we packed our stuff and head home (along the way, Ipoh nga choikai for dinner)... -end-

and then there was Penang: The Continued Blogisodes of Fellowsheep's guide to Penang Part 2

Hi again everyone! Second episode to Fellowsheep's Penang trip is on... where was I? Right, Sucram having a 18SX Nightvision show the night we arrived.. Yes... Next morning we head of somewhere near Air Itam where Joel's homechurch, RGBC is located... There, we went of to a Kopi-Cha Pow (Coffee Shop)/Market where the sell from Porku (pork), veggies, meat, household items and whatelse but FOOD. We had these Stir Fried Turnip Cakes in Eggs and Beansprouts or in a very short term, Char Kuey Kark. Also we manage to find the lovely pancakes that we all love with Jaggung or sweet corn inside the pancakes... So we end up enjoying these hard to find foods as well as our local delights light char kuey teow and wan tan mee...


Hmmm... good....

Well, thats it for today... coz i memang lazy to blog like few paragraphs long so tune in next time for the third chapter into our journey... also will have updates on a trip to US and will definitely let you guys see what i see through my own eyes... good evening...

and then there was Penang: A Fellowsheep Travel & Living Production Part1

It was a long time ago since i blog... too long... Well, Year ended with a note of celebration as my holidays has just begun... Three months of not fun, but things and experiences I will experience for this holiday... well, just before this day came, i had an early launch to R&R with my "fellowsheep" pals. Penang. We have been planning this trip for months almost close to a year... and to our great blessed moment, we got it! At that time, i finished three of my papers and have a last paper on mon... was a tough choice, in the end i choose to go... it was something that i can never get that chance to spend... So, we had to meet up and wipes place for departure on friday which was 7.00pm sharp but turn to be ETA 7.00pm or more like ETA 8.00pm.. LOL... we ended up waiting and playing Need For Speed Most Wanted..


Waiting...

Well then, we had a little prayer for the journey ahead and when to a petrol kiosk to do some double checking on the convoy (we traveled in three cars). We had a Toyota Unser(Kong Weng's Dad's Car drove by Wai Peng aka Wipes with Co-pilot Joel Vergis), Perodua Myvi (Celestine aka "Siau Les" with co-pilot Belinda) and Honda Accord (driven by Vincent with Jon Lee as co-pilot and myself in it). We even carried out walkie-talkies and i'm like "do we even need it?". To my surprise, it is useful especially when its at night and people dont noe the way... not to mention, we had fun using the walkie as a means of annoyance... hahaha... So we left! The night drive was both relaxing but tiring. Yet, it was definitely beautiful to drive at night somehow, more intimate i guess...

After Four hours of taiping night safari, tunnels, long roads and crazy walkie talkie antics... we arrived.. we went up to Sucram's (Marcus's) place to join us once we arrived.

So we pack our stuff into our rooms which Elaine Kok's aunty provided us an empty apartment which was just fine for us... A nice place, not too hot nor too cold, quiet and definitely near to places we wanna go... After we unpack our stuff out, some of us decided for our usual KL late culture supper at a near by Mamak stall called Khaleed Restaurant...









Then of course we were tired and we slept through the night... or morning...

18SXX... Lol...

To be continued... Next Blogisode: Penang Hill, Dam you Air Itam Dam and loads more... Stay Tuned..

Video: Lee Evans Live in Wimbledon (Wired and Wonderful)

Todays posting will be this guy i want to introduce to you for many of us dont recognize and few of us know... Lee Evans. This guys appeared in a number of movies (partly british movies) and also in musical acts as well (i think). Currently (and even before his acting career), he is a stand up comedian and can i say he is "England's Best"?! the first time i watched it was when i had a small christmas do with friends and Wai Meng brought this DVD titled: Lee Evans XL Tour 2005. We watched it for an hour and not that i couldnt stop laughing for an hour but it was amazing to see like more than 200 000 audience in a stadium in Cardiff! From there on i love his materials.. and i just realise he has done shows in wimbledon and scotland... and there is probably more of that a decade ago.. anyways... i'll just preview 2 shows from 2 different places which is Cardiff and Wimbledon.. Enjoy!

P.S. Mind the Vulgar Language... Not adviseable for kids under 18* LOL!
