Actually nothing much i did few days before..because i'm going to college (although my brain has rotten quite long time ago) ! So when my younger sis (currently in F4) asked questions on homeworks to me; i became quite blurred. Haha; she asked those quite easy questions but i simply couldn't answer it--and i asked her to ask my elder sister instead. Then i realise (after few days) that i must do something about it (my brain; her homeworks; my reputation hehehe). So i started up by doing my one-week timetable. Quite useful for a lazy bump like me--i will follow rules rather than self-motivation/alarm clock.
Anyway--basically nothing much; just read some grammar books, (my eng sux!) and keep reading and Nihongo o benkyoshimasu. Sigh~~i can't never really master it although i read and read on the same chapters everyday. Haha--pathetic. Oh and maybe i will start revising my additional maths and bio/chem/physics like tat..hehe; depends.

Little Budget Management.
Oh actually it's a simple version of statement. Well, since i'm going to college; i will have to be quite..independent. I will have to (of course!) manage my little financial world, and head on with studies without worrying both my parents. So i searched (actually; quite an incident when i saw) on internet on tips how to survive in college/university/campus/etc. Of course; the website actually managed by American..for American scholars, but some of the informations are quite useful for anyone who wants to manage their budgets in college. Check here.
I printed out the articles and read it. Since i'm new, and basically zero financial-management knowledge; i found it is very interesting and fun. (I'm a person who like to be busy all the time; especially if i'm pretty busy already.
Yeah; stop with my little craziness. Anyway; you see; there's one tiny winy thing i would like to remind you all when you are thinking of budgeting. Seriously; it's a stupid situation (i'm meaning myself of course!)
Here's how i got my lessons:
Just now my family and i were in a food court; for a dinner. Since we can't make out what to eat for dinner; options varied among ourselves. We picked the food we want to at food court. To keep everything in short; the problem arise when we ordered the drinks.
I want to drink Chinese Tea; like my dad usually ordered in..everywhere.
greengrass: can you give me hot tea?
dad:make it three.
waiter:ok.
a few minutes later; he brought 3 glasses of teas..tea tarik..somesort of tea u found in kopitiams. i like...what the?! So actually i wanted to argue about it; because it's not what i ordered. But dad refused to do so; and paid RM3.90 for 3 glasses..well, Chinese tea costs about RM0.30. We paid extra RM3. What more? My mum and sis like half scolding me for din make a clear order. I said; how would i know? Actually; my sis were there at the time i ordered the drinks, so if they said i did not make a clear order, how come they din stop me? It wasn't completely my fault right? So dad said dun make a fuss out of it, because the waiter had serve what he was told to. So we cannot do anything liao..
conclusion: To manage your budget: Make a clear order out of it. No matter how; you want a strawberry jam less sugar or strawberry jam only. Otherwise you will burn some small holes (which later will eventually become a big hole two months later) in your pocket. Ouch.

3 posts in 1 blog
Today i wan to type three topics into same blog; same day. OMG I'm very greedy...hahaa..actually i did online few days back but then i...lazy to type...muahaha...so what did i do when online?
Part 1 (...Half Otaku?)
Congratulations if you found out. I'm been an avid reader of manga online! Seriously; i also dunno why i will enter that website. So i turn out watching chapters per chapters of some stories@manga. Although i wan to read about Bleach only initially; it turned out i read anything else but Bleach. haha; kerek giler la...then i watched movies/series online pulak. I like..what the? But seriously i want to promote crunchyroll.com giler giler here because the video quality like..wow! Better than youtube.com about 5 times!!! Downloading times faster, quality better, more options. If you want to know; there are more originals than crappy (means: own MV video, bla bla)...One more important: We bananas:half or non; (no offences=))or love japanese movie but can't understand single thing??! You can count on cruncyroll's. The english translation is P.E.R.F.E.C.T.!!!!!!)
And so i came across this cool website is when i was looking for Nada Sou Sou's the Movie. (Tears For You;JMovie). In Youtube results:Zero. In Crunchyroll results: Complete Movie. Haha...so i was of course trilled! I recommend this movie if you are into JMovie;BroSis relationship; BroSis Complex, Love, and that cute guy! haha..the lead actor i mean.=) If you wan to know the synopsis go and read it yourself lor...hahaha
Btw; talking back on my 1st part of long long blog---..Half Otaku?
According to wikipedia.org: Otaku is a term used to refer to people with obsessive interests, particularly anime and manga. The term otaku in Japanese suggests a creepy, obsessive loner who rarely leaves the house. In English, geek can possibly suggest a person who may be socially awkward but who is also intelligent and may be fairly "normal" aside from their interest in certain typically 'geekish' pursuits (video games, comic books, computers, etc.). Otaku is closer in connotation to the English nerd but the closest English-language analogue to otaku is probably the British English term anorak. Both of these English-language terms have more emphatically negative connotations of poor social skills and obsessive interest in a topic that seems strange or boring to others.
Haha; no lar, i suspect myself as half otaku..it's not that i hate going out; i'm not grounded, but my frens: busy working/studying; my mum not really wan to me to go out:outside is dangerous. So i stayed at home; online watching movie and manga non-stop. If I'm lucky(lucky?) to find a movie/manga that attracts me, then i will be facing the monitor up to 5 hours per day. So far only 2 made me:Bokura Ga Ita (We've been there@anime@japanese) and Nada Sou Sou. Oh Ya; additional info: 90% of the anime/movie and trailers that you've been looking for are available in there: Ex:Death Note the Movie, Korean Movies that non-available in Malaysia, Japanese Dramas and Movie:Heard or Unheard Before; Chinese Soap Dramas (TVBs) like that also got..Geng mao?
Currently besides online watching manga/anime; i do scrapbooks. I am lazy to explain; but it's addictive if you 1)love art 2) love photography 3) loves computer 4)loves telling stories. So yeah, if you just have any of the reasons to scrapbook, then you should try. It's fun. It's not about having time or not; it's really depend on individually-you wan to do or not. So yeah..
The end.
Of part 1...
honestly...(lol)
Part 2 (...Not so Otaku d?? )
It's pretty weird topic right? Nevertheless; seriously i'm happy because i can go out on wednesday..after my almost 2 weeks of growing mushrooms and lingzhi (impossible i can grew lingzhi) at home. So yeah, haha~~so happy and relieved that i'm no longer walking thru the otaku zone..no no..not that i hate otakus..just that i can't stay in house too long..for duno what reasons ok? Nvm, let's talk bout HIS Birthday Day. Actually Simon was born on the wrong day this year; just kidding. Since we can't make it to have his day as soon as possible, we postponed till recently. (We the gang very busy one...working working..)
Pretty much the same like any other outing with the gang:Amber, Sam, Simon, Jen, Me,..den suddenly pop put a tomato (it's a human being; for yr information=) that day. Haha, ok ok tomato; just kidding alright. You appear or not appear that day doesn't make any difference also.We can just pretend you are not... Ok ok, just kidding again.
So, we just eat at sushi king...some more promotions RM2 on that day..haha..the terms and condition like this:
1) You must have a sushi king card. (fit for max 6 persons per card)
2) You only can stay in the store for 19 min only (my sis said why don't 20? I also dunoo...=))
3)There are some exception for rm2 promotion sushis', only solid colors of sushi plate are for rm2. Which means, strips of color on the side of the plate are on usually price (rm 6, rm 8)
What more? We eat lor..but each of us the max plate: 5-6 only. Because
1) we are full...(wonders wonders..)
2) there are not much of varieties at TS Sushi King Outlet.
Ok ok, then leh wat happen next? We plan to play pool at bowling place there but Sam and Amber went to cut hair instead..haha. They both want to cut hair on Simon's day? But then again, got 2 foreigners took the pool table; and the other one out of services. Ok fine, they ended up play bowling instead. I din participate in it. Because a) I duwan b)I dunno how to play.
And and..surprisingly Jen rank 1st in the first game; because Jen got strike! Amazing; beat those two guys weh!! It was funny though because Simon teased Jen that the way Jen threw the ball like throwing handbag! Haha; Tomato said the style works. So tomato gave a shot. But hehe; the style works for jen only. Hehe; on the second game, each player get to strike; but still Jen scored the highest; she hit double! Tomato said next time he dare not play with Jen d..
btw we watched 27 dresses that day. Kinda nice story; we laughed and laughed. So sad; other ppl are enjoying watching with full heartedly; we spoiled it. He he. So yeah; after movie we took some pic and that's all. Very like the wu liao type day? Nah; it's actually nicer. Maybe there are less ppl; so we communicate better. Actually; i planned to eat yogurt at yogurtberry (if you wan to know where the store is: it's on 1st floor; facing the GSC Cinema ticket counter) because my younger sis it's really really nice; but unfortunately the store is in pretty bad business. Maybe less ppl enter; or they dun like yogurts or others. I will just have to try it the other time..
oh ya: I'm posting pic here so you can see amber and sam's haircut that day: hehe
the 1st sushi i had! (Out of 5 plates)=) That's simon with jen jen=)they are sweet couple..
Sammy and Amber before the hair cut... Yeah; i took candid picture of tomato..seriously he dunno how to pose
when i ask him to pose lor...sigh~spoil the pretty picture of 2 beauties
only..(tomato the beauty photo spoiler...hahah jk jk)
Tada! 4 gals! And of course; after the haircut..=)
Part 3(..No Otaku-to-Be liao..)
Oh this was happened when i registered for Foundation in Arts at HELP Institute; last Saturday. I was trilled of course; because i can enter college finally. I dowan to enter form 6; so my the only option is to enter college. Now thanks (very much!) to my parents and the institute; my tuition fees for the 1 year-course are waived. So my dad only need to pay for the admission fees and la la jap jap stuff only. But still; it's more expensive compared to form 6..but daijobu otosan; okaasan! I will gambate kudasai!! =( Yeah; i did apply for JPA and ASEAN Scholarship; so to choose between these i will choose JPA and ASEAN over HELP. This is because JPA provides everything for my studies in the next 3-4 years in architecture (overseas you know!!) If i get JPA liao; my dad and mum will not have to worry for the next 3-4 years..yeah; still both i will have to excel in studies every year. If i stayed in HELP; it is pretty impossible to obtain full scholarship for degree course lor..my dad still have to fork out 1/2 or 1/3 of the fees (if i managed to get the PTPTN loan (government). Wish me luck in JPA ok?!? Hehe...
Actually i dunno which to do: foundation in science or foundation in arts..of course; foundation in science are wider..but my mum said since i wanted to do psychology---business psychology; why i dun go to arts instead? So..here i am gonna do arts. Pretty scary for me; arts stream are pretty new..i have no confidence actually...but i will do my best..and when i thought of those faces who looked down on me (because i'm not that bright; not that sports-active; not that rich; bla bla other sh.. ) ; suddenly i feel like proving that all the harsh words they uttered are sooooo totally wrong. It's like..go to hll would ya like tat? (OMG; i'm so nice to them already ok? I dun think it's over for me to say like tat) I did prove that to them once; when i'm studying for SPM. Serves them sooo right! Now they like..din talk to me or talk to me in different manner liao..so wait till i finished my studies; i will show off to them!
Sigh; i'm so emo bout this. Haha...sorry x 100 yeah=P
Hehe; so i'm not going to tear out stupid tears just because what they said; instead i will make them eat their own words..
ok ok...dowan emo liao..=) I'm going to end this long post now..=)
Mata Ja Ne~!

While otaku in English-speaking contexts is generally understood to mean geek or even fan, this usage is not widely known in Japan. Casual use of this term may confuse or offend native Japanese speakers.

Mata Ja Ne~!
The song that i like..
Anyway, i liked this song quite some time ago..recently when my sis intro me to this Taiwanese band=Sodagreen or known as SuDaLv in Chinese. This song basically tells that how a guy treats his gal although he was hurt by his gal la..haha..kinda meaningful, i like how the lyrics were written and arranged. Maybe you should find one day and try to listen to it. It wasn't a sentimental one; but something like pop. I also can't figure out the genre..but hey listen ok? Here's the translation:
这天。(This Day)by Sodagreen.
够深刻了吗 来躺下吧
gou shen ke le ma / lai tang xia ba
Is it deep enough? Come lie down,
让我轻抚你安慰 伤害我后的疲累
rang wo qing fu ni an wei / shang hai wo hou de pi bei
Let me caress away the fatigue of your hurting me
够尖锐了吗 看我的疤
gou jian rui le ma / kan wo de ba
Is it sharp enough? Look at my scars,
用温柔包覆勇敢 给喘息的你笑脸
yong wen rou bao fu yong gan / gei chuan xi de ni xiao lian
Let me wrap up my courage and gentility, serving it with a smile
生命从来不觉得 自己对谁该负责任
sheng ming cong lai bu jue de / zi ji dui shui gai fu ze ren
Life never thought about being responsible to anyone
(我们看了编造的谎言
(wo men kan le bian zao de huang yan
We saw those lies
就如此轻易将彼此划成碎片)
jiu ru ci qing yi jiang bi ci hua cheng sui pian)
and easily used them to rip each other into shreads
太多虚伪情节的表面 模糊陌生的眼 (1)
tai duo xu wei qing jie de biao mian / mo hu mo sheng de yan
Too many hypocritical facades, blurring these stranger eyes
请让我在你身边 一起穿越这条街
qing ran wo zai ni shen bian / yi qi chuan yue zhe tiao jie
Please let me stay by your side, crossing the street together
请让我在你身边 一起纪念这一天
qing rang wo zai ni shen bian / yi qi ji nian zhe yi tian
Please let me stay by your side, remembering this day together
够痛快了吗 我知道啊
gou tong kuai le ma / wo zhi dao a
Is it hearty enough? Of course I know
躲在你利刃之内 骄傲的自卑作祟 (2)
duo zai ni li ren zhi nei / jiao ao de zi bei zuo sui
Been hiding in your blades, my proud self-consciousness acting up
够鲜艳了吗 血染的花
gou xian yan le ma / xue ran de hua
Is it bright enough? This blood-dyed flower
被你刺满的双手 此刻擦乾你眼泪
bei ni ci man de shuang shou / ci ke ca gan ni yan lei
Let me wipe your tears with these hands full of your stab wounds
总有一天我们都死去
zong you yi tian wo men dou si qu
We will all die some day,
丢掉名字的回忆再没有意义
diu diao ming zi de hui yi zai ye mei you yi yi
Memories without a name no longer means anything
总有一天我们都忘记
zong you yi tian wo men dou wang ji
We will all forget some day,
曾为了一个越演越烂的故事伤心
ceng wei le yi ge yue yan yue lan de gu shi shang xin
How we cried over a downward sliding storyline
总有一天我们都叹息
zong you yi tian wo men dou tan xi
We all sigh some day,
笑着缅怀有过的愚蠢的美丽 就让现在过去
xiao zhe mian huai you guo yu chun de mei li / jiu rang xian zai guo qu
Reminiscing our beautiful stupidity with a smile, letting the now flow to
the past
让我握你的手 彻底了解颤抖
rang wo wo ni de shou / che di liao jie chan dou
Hold your hand and I'll understand your shivers
让你握我的手 你会知道我
rang ni wo wo de shou / ni hui zhi dao wo
Hold my hand and you will know me
(透过我的眼泪看你的脸 自由是我们需要的特权
(tou guo wo de yan lei kan ni de lian / zi you shi wo men xu yao de te quan
Seeing your face through my tears, freedom is the privilege that we needed
你笑了 我笑了)
ni xiao le / wo xiao le)
You smiled, so did I
(by the way; sodagreen is not as popular in malaysia as they are in taiwan and singapore. But glad to hear that myFm did air this band latest song: Wu Yi Lun Bi De Mei Li (Incomparable Beauty) in their album:Incomparable Beauty.=)

被你刺满的双手 此刻擦乾你眼泪
bei ni ci man de shuang shou / ci ke ca gan ni yan lei
Let me wipe your tears with these hands full of your stab wounds
总有一天我们都死去
zong you yi tian wo men dou si qu
We will all die some day,
丢掉名字的回忆再没有意义
diu diao ming zi de hui yi zai ye mei you yi yi
Memories without a name no longer means anything
总有一天我们都忘记
zong you yi tian wo men dou wang ji
We will all forget some day,
曾为了一个越演越烂的故事伤心
ceng wei le yi ge yue yan yue lan de gu shi shang xin
How we cried over a downward sliding storyline
总有一天我们都叹息
zong you yi tian wo men dou tan xi
We all sigh some day,
笑着缅怀有过的愚蠢的美丽 就让现在过去
xiao zhe mian huai you guo yu chun de mei li / jiu rang xian zai guo qu
Reminiscing our beautiful stupidity with a smile, letting the now flow to
the past
让我握你的手 彻底了解颤抖
rang wo wo ni de shou / che di liao jie chan dou
Hold your hand and I'll understand your shivers
让你握我的手 你会知道我
rang ni wo wo de shou / ni hui zhi dao wo
Hold my hand and you will know me
(透过我的眼泪看你的脸 自由是我们需要的特权
(tou guo wo de yan lei kan ni de lian / zi you shi wo men xu yao de te quan
Seeing your face through my tears, freedom is the privilege that we needed
你笑了 我笑了)
ni xiao le / wo xiao le)
You smiled, so did I
(by the way; sodagreen is not as popular in malaysia as they are in taiwan and singapore. But glad to hear that myFm did air this band latest song: Wu Yi Lun Bi De Mei Li (Incomparable Beauty) in their album:Incomparable Beauty.=)

Up there are some pictures i took at Chamang Waterfall; just to excite the nature lover out there..=) But nothing is can compared by being there experience and see it.
JPA Scholarship Interview...(Part 2)
Muahahaha...what shall i type in this post? But then again, i typed everything inside but not so detail..let me tell you about my batch for the interview that day: There's 3 Chinese gal included me, 1 Malay guy, and 3 Malay females. We had some chat before the interview. Although i can't remember their name, but i know they are very very nice person..and excel in both academic and extra curriculum field..definitely much better than who i am.
The Malay guy planned to take Business Administration; and according to the interviewer, his chance of getting through the interview is higher because not many ppl took this course. Erm..i see la..anyway, there's one chinese gal (who loves black:black hair, black shirt, black pants, black bag, black shoes, black file!) and she plans to take law. Wow! She's definitely looked like a lawyer. Very elegant and pretty! And the other gal wore blazer. All said she was clever, because while waiting for interview and in the interview itself, it's very very cold. She's plan to take engineering in US or German, but she will prefer US because same language mah..And then one malay gal plans to take financing; she's really can debate i tell you. And one more want to do accounting, and the other one economic if i'm not mistaken. So since all of us took different course, (me doing architecture) we have less tense.
It was nothing much d i guess. But seriously if you plan to take JPA Scholarship, try to apply for your courses if possible. TRY at least. Because i think this interview is really good. The interviewer is not so straight, and interview is done within a group. You have the chance to see how other ppl speak during interview, and thus you can gain some knowledge from the person.
I din't regret for taking JPA scholarship although my first and second choice in career is psychology. Perhaps who knows, maybe one day you will see me as an architect. Since my parents love to kick me out (just joking la) to oversea, so i really took an initiative in it. But if can, i want to do psychology. It's not that i hated architecture and/or because my dad and mum pushed me to do or something. But hey again; why not? Maybe to my parents, psychology is still an unsteady field; at least in Malaysia. And besides, i can't guarantee I'M for psychology, rite? But i guess i'm really really happy if my parents are proud of me; despite of what career i will be involved. =)
Here is some pictures i took from International Convention Centre at Putrajaya.

JPA Scholarship Interview...(Part 1)
It started something like this:
1st April, about 4-6pm.
Conversation #1:
Kit Leng: Did you know you can check whether you can enter JPA interview or not?
Greengrass: Serious? I dunno!
Kit Leng: Yeah, you go and search now.
Greengrass: ok.
few seconds later...
Kit Leng: have you checked?
Greengrass: Yeah..i got it..what i suppose to do??it's 2 days from now!!
Kit Leng: No worries, good luck=)
Greengrass: Thanks
After that, i run through the blog of ppl who actually went for JPA Scholarship Interview before. So basically i see: Dress code (Checked), Certificates (Checked), Time and Venue (Checked) Knowledge in Current Issue ( ).
Conversation #2:
Greengrass: Mum, i'm cooked. I will die soon!
Mum: Why?
Greengrass: I was called up for interview! JPA Scholarship!
Mum: I thought that is a good news?
Greengrass: But i will have discussion on current issues! I duno anything bout the world today!?
Mum: Don't be stupid, you won't die of it. Find the issues online and you will be fine.
Greengrass: *Head banging on the wall*
With my head banging on the wall and fingers typing on the keyboard, i kept searching on the current issues from last year till ...yeah i din search bout the general election. I just found about abducted children cases, SMART Tunnel, Too much As' in SPM, Malaysian Astronaut and Corruption/Integrity. Although i'm half cursing myself for not paying attention on current issues, i'm pretty thankful because i had a reason to keep myself updated. Haha..oh well; nvm.
3rd April
1230pm
I arrived at Pusat Konvensyen Antarabangsa at Putrajaya. The first thing i encountered in the lobby was: There are so many brilliant people! They have the kind of aura that intimidate me a lot. Although the scenery was terrific, i still had the lump in the throat and a knot in my stomach. So yeah...nvm, but my dad put down his work and my mum came here. So i will try my best in the interview although the subject is not my num 1 choice.
I bump into Cheryl! Haha..She's wearing baju kurung: Nampak manis. Actually it took a long time for me to recognise her..haha, until i call her handphone and voila! We were both happy: We are not alone! Haha, she and i on the same room num 16.
200pm
GUlp! Happiness was an instance. Cheryl went in first with other 4-5 persons. I was the second batch. While waiting i talked with other people. We waited for almost 1 hour 10 minutes. We agreed that our batch took the longest time to get out. But when Cheryl came out, she told us that the interviewers are friendly and they are more like chatting rather than interviewing. So i was relieved (for a moment)
We greeted the interviewers(There are two actually, one male and one female). First he explained the interviewing process, wat we will introduce ourselves and so forth. I was the forth to introduce. When the first person open his mouth, i was shivering. Too nervous. So by the time the 3rd person spoke: I lost my consciousness. Literally. I was waiting for the Mr Interviewer to ask me to speak. It's different because: 1) It's the rule in any interviewing process; you wait till the interviewer ask you to speak and 2) What language the interviewer will speak determines what language you will have to answer. So he said: Ya,"Anda boleh mulakan". And i started to introduce myself in malay. It's hard not to bite my words-seriously, the words seemed entangled with my tongue. So i even forgotten to mention about my family background and skipped straight into my extra curriculum achievements and activities. And when he asked about my parents, only i talk about it. It was horrible. I felt like spanking my head on that time.
And then he asked in english: So what your course you are planning to take? Yeah: It's in english. Because i thought of it earlier, so i spoke quite (quite only!!) carefree-ly and in confidence. I mentioned about Mrs Hadid, the Baghdad-born British architect. She was quite my inspiration to involved in architecture. Because, "hey, why not architecture?" I told myself.
And questions go on with 2nd session: Current Issues.
1) What do you think qualities in a good leader should have?
2) Do you think idols, singers, reality shows contestant can become a good leader?
3) Tell us who do you think is your most admired leader and why?
And stupid answers spurred out from my mouth are like these (it was brief one; i cut off my crappy answers and pausing moments)
1) A leader should not only know how to lead, but also can be lead by others. He should work with his people like his family, but at the same time he can be respected by others and people know that he's the superior.
2) Yes, take a good example of Allaryarham P Ramlee. He was a director, actor, singer and he was well respected by others. He opened the chances and give confidence to others on Malaysian entertainment industry.
Mr interviewer: Oh really, name me 3 titles of P Ramlee Movie that you watched.
Greengrass: Oh er, I watched one only..'La..laksamana Do Re MI' (they laughed)
Mr interviewer: Then you said he's...
Greengrass: (Quickly said) See sir, i only watched one of his movie yet i'm admire him already..
After that i thought: I also watched before Nujum Pak Belalang T_T~
3) I admired Tun Dr Mahathir of his vision 2020. He catalyzed the industries and make us Malaysia become a developed country and share the same standard with other developed countries such as Japan, US, China, Russia and others.
Seriously, if i can talk half of my answers as beautifully arranged as that, i'm in heaven. But now i'm still on earth. I paused, said oh-er-ah before continue a new sentences. Others like superb, talking like they are pros..made me intimidated.
430pm: It ended. Relieved. I was happy because:
1) It ended finally.
2) It was the nicest interview and nicest interviewer i had.
3) I gain more experience today.
-be prepared
-practice your speech
-smile a lot
-READ MORE ON CURRENT ISSUE.
4) There are some good people i met.
5) I did something today.
The results: 3rd week of May 2008.=)
