When good things must come to an end

It's my final week of semester break. Bummer. It doesn't feel enough. I'm not ready to go back to school. Awesome stuff has been happening and I don't want to go back to the dreaded regular, day to day routine of a student life :O Where you have to stay up late to do your work, burning those midnight oil, getting all stressed up over assignments. Well of course, the good part is you don't have to feel so lifeless? But I was having a life even during my breaks! Well I get to hang with friends again, people whom I hardly get to see during breaks because they are just all over the place. Semester Five. It's my final year. And I am "loving" it.

So what did I do the past one month? I can't really recall everything that I've done but maybe just a few to share :) Well, I have been updating my blog so a few that I have already posted, why would I want to post is again. Right? :)

Okay. So coming back. Remember me posting about my cousin's farewell? Yup. Mervyn came back for the holidays and I can say that he is a life testament to many out there. You may know why from the pictures :)


The Singaporeans also came down during the holidays and though it was just four days, Friday to Monday. We managed to catch up with one another. Unfortunately during the weekends, I was caught up with Footstool. Half of the time, I wasn't with them. This pictures of the six of us was taken last year. By now, as you noticed, Mervyn is way lot thinner, Calvin became slightly muscular and Lyon .. well .. he's been working out. I will leave it to you guys to be the judge on his current upper body strength ;)

Jun Sean and Jia Kent came back for the holidays too and the four of us managed to meet together. Now here is the latest story of Lyon the Band. We've decided to journey on different pathways. I know I posted about our gig in Indie Youth Fest 2010 a while ago but hey, we're still friends. It wasn't because we fought or anything. If ever we did. I blamed Sean :P Just kidding. I'm really gonna miss all of them. Lyon the band was really going well surprisingly. I mean you would have thought .. "Apa ini .. Lyon da band? Tak pernah dengar punya .. " but we get gigs quite frequently, thanks to those who has been supportive, those who loved our originals. Sorry it didn't last long. We didn't expect a full time commitment anyway, but I never knew we couldn't have gotten that far. To have the privileges to play with some of Malaysian local artists was definitely a memory to keep. I will love you guys, always.

*Takes a deep breath* *exhale* *sniff* :) So other than the Port Dickson trip that I went with my cousins, We the guys planned up a trip to Melaka to just do the usual, which was 'makan-ing'. At this point, you might expect the beautiful historical landscape of Melaka. From churches to those really old school kopitiams, from chicken rice ball or Assam Laksa to the cooling awesome cendol. Well no. The only picture I got with me was the one with us flying a kite in Pantai Klebang and even with that, it's just a picture of us guys without Isabel and JQ. Sorry girls :] But it was a fun day indeed :) Thanks to Syaz. Yup. The guy who is carrying that red kite.

Speaking about kites, it's as if my life has been fulfilled that very day. I got the privileged to finally fly a kite for the very first time in my life! Yes! No kidding! I mean come on :) Didn't you had a long list of things to do before you turn 21? I did. To name of some a few examples, to play pokemon again on a gameboy, eat those chocolate sweet that has a toy in it. Look at the smile on my face. That is satisfactory. That's a smile of a little boy inside knowing that he has completed everything he wanted to do in his list before turning 21.

It's things like this, just like having to own Aj Rafael's first album is huge! I started listening to Aj Rafael when I was 18 years old. Today I'm 21 + and I'm one of his biggest fan in Malaysia. His album was released somewhere in the month of June and I just had to get my hands on it. People like us in Malaysia will never be able to get a chance to see Aj Rafael live, it's hard for me to show my support in that sense, going for his gigs and all, so I do what I can on youtube and facebook when it comes to sharing his music to my other friends, and also to buy his album with all his original songs in it :D


Last but not least, my beloved <3 Some of you may know her, she even made an appearance here logging into my blogspot! using my laptop! and even posting something that I didn't even know for 3 weeks! but the post was really sweet :) Call me cheesy but she's the apple of my eye. I just wanted to write that down because I have never done that before. Now that we have moved on from that awkward moment. Lee Jian Quin became 21 in June. She is now a woman. Yes my woman is a big .. girl now? :S You really got to forgive me whenever I write such nonsensical statements like this. What I am trying to say is that .. she is one amazing person to me and I will always cherish her.

Who would have thought? That us being friends would one day become an item together. We were just friends who likes to annoy each other. Well maybe me annoying her, while she has to endure the silliness ..... thanks for being friends with me then JQ, if you are reading this. Hee. I guess there was just something about her that caught my eye. I mean she doesn't even look Chinese to begin with. Sort of. She has this brownish-green eyes and her hair is brown. She's so fair and she is mine :) It started of with an awkward conversation by the KTM station, and the rest is history.

When good things has to come to an end, I guess it is not so bad after all. Like what my mom always says, "There is a time to work, and a time to play". This is my final year in Degree. Semester 5. Play time is over. Time to bring in the academic fighting spirit.
