Cambodian Rendezvous

Day 1

nothing on day 1 so i'll make this a 2 part season premier.. haha... here goes..

it all started with a flight........... you dont seriously think i'd start this post like this do you?

on the plane

well my family and i took an Air Asia flight to KL and was delayed at KLIA for our flight to Cambodia... we arrived at the capital city, Phnom Penh at 5.10pm local time... oh by the way, Cambodia is an hour behind Malaysia.. well thanks to the delay at KLIA, we got stuck in a traffic jam... rush hour... we finally arrived at a restaurant called Khmer Surin.. Khmer is the Cambodian language or also refer to their people.. food there was pretty good... we had a taste of the famous Amok Chicken... its like curry but sweet...

Khmer Surin..

after dinner we checked into our hotel.. the name of the hotel is Mittapheap Hotel... =.= the rooms were ok.. not much to see outside the hotel so we decided to sleep early..

Petronas Station in the midle of KLIA...

our plane was next to the Manchester United Air Asia plane.. =(

Plane food... whee... =.=

Day 2

woke up pretty late.. not a good way to start your vacation.. had breakfast at the hotel.. the bus took us to Wat Phnom.. it the first temple in the capital city and also where the city started.. we then headed to the Imperial Palace where the King of Cambodia still resides.. the design is similar to the Royal Palace in Bangkok..

Wat Phnom..

there was this Silver Pagoda within the palace grounds and the first thing that went through my mind was a Pagoda made of silver.... well, its not really that.. its actually a place where the King and other people worship the Emerald Buddha (again similar to Bangkok)... the floor, however, has silver tiles weighing 1kg each.. they dont allow photography inside the Pagoda but i managed to snap some under my arms..

Imperial Palace..


National Artifact Museum was the next stop.. the museum displays many statues and artifacts from the Pre-Angkor, Angkor, and Post-Angkor period.. there were LOADS.. but you cant take pictures without official permission... dumb people..

National Artifact Museum.... and dad..

why is there barisan logos in Phnom Penh??

lunch was at Tonle Bassac.. its a buffet of local food... not bad but could be better.. we stopped by a souvenir shop after lunch... Pailin Souvenirs... Pailin, my favourite Amazing Race Asia contestant, isnt the owner and thank god for that... the shop sucked.. haha..

Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum, our next location, was one that i never want to visit again... it was a prison during the war in Cambodia and before becoming a prison, it used to be a school... the cruelty of mankind sent chills up my spine and made me thank god i live in the 21st century...

the rules of the S-21 prison..

illustration of how they kill babies... monsters..!!

pictures of some of the kids imprisoned and killed in the prison..

after that enlightening visit, we headed to the Russian Market.. its called a Russian Market because it used to be where the Russians stay during the communist regime... shopping was obviously the thing there..

them people so proud of their Lexus.. there are more like this one around..

the local Tuk-Tuk..

dinner sucked big time... King Suki Soup = steamboat... heck my family makes better steamboats... dumbass restaurant..

that's all for the series premier... haha..
ivan..

I'm home...!!
yes my Cambodian adventure is over and i'm partly relieved yet sad...

we explored many temples, wat or prasat as they call it, and my feet are screaming for comfort but it was worth it..

i have finally crossed out Angkor Wat off my list of places to see and may have added a few more onto the "SEEN LIST"..

places i've been to are Angkor Wat, Angkor Thom, Banterey Srei, Tonle Sap, i've even seen the great Mekong River..!!

i bet you guys are expecting a long post... well i'm nt posting everything at once.. i'm doing it in parts.. one part is about a day in Cambodia..

Coming Soon....





ivan..

here i am again talking about crap...

first i wanna congratulate Max Ong for winning the boys u-17 title in the Penang Junior Closed... you played well...

well its Friday and the guys and i are going out after the finals later... my cousin, Eugene is coming over to stay... Football on Monday.... yes the squash gang is playing football..

Countdown to Cambodia : 4 Days

i think that's it.. lol... sorry not much to say...
ivan..

I'm Back...

yes people... i'm back... its been awhile but what the heck...

SPM isnt as bad as it was said to be but who am i to judge? i didnt even study... so yes SPM is over... whee =.= i dont feel the excitement...

i need a job.. well i wanna coach but someone wont return me my class for this month.. asshole.. i'm going to see Teng Hin and ask for more classes at a regular basis... i dont mind coaching everyday..

anyway the Penang Junior Closed just started today... i only entered the u-17 event as i am not fit.. i had the most misfortune of meeting the crow in the quarters... which sucked.. i lost to him 9-1, 9-4, 9-6.... i dare say thought that it was my best performance against him ever.. unfortunately more is needed to overcome the dark force.. LOL..

i will be playing against Alamin from Tin Club tomorrow and i'm not happy... the last meeting between us ended on the losing side for me... it was at the Tin Club and i was playing for my team SAP.. i hope to turn things around this time and put my experience to good use.. after all, i wont be playing tournaments for long...

had my bath after all that and took Shu Lynn out for dinner... went to Nandos at new Gurney... after that i head upstairs to check out phones and its finally here!! no not the Nokia 5800 but the Nokia n79!! i love that phone... unfortunately being an N-Series phone, it is priced at RM1899... a steep price for me.. but i will not rest until i have either the 5800 or the n79.. but another option would be the Sony Ericsson C905... its great and all and cheaper than the n79 by a few hundred but the camera is a little too much for a phone.. 8.1 megapixels? really?

i've waited for the Sony Ericsson Xperia and its finally here but the price is close to RM3000... that is just too much... anyway i will stop typing... will bring more updates soon i hope but for now i leave you all with a picture of the Nokia n79...

return of the fine print? i dont think so... not now at least.. hahah... got you looking didnt i Allan? ;)

ivan..

9 days till SPM....
x_X

anyway i havent been working hard enough to get myself prepared for this... now i'm feeling the pressure.... but i am trying my best to make the time i have left worth it.....

i'm being burried by tuition and homework and revision exercises i just wish this month will go away soon..... regardless of the results....

i dont have much time to update.... next one will probably be after SPM...
till next time...

i miss you baby...
ivan..

i didnt plan to update my blog but here i am so i'll just wing it as i go....

anyway on Friday the 24th of October, it was SSP's most highly anticipated event of the year.... The Graduation Prom... so yeah i'll just walk you through the whole day.....

i woke up very early in the morning and had my breakfast... got myself ready and went to pick up Mabel, Malcolm, and Matthew.... they were gonna go play tennis... well i wanted to decorate my masquerade mask and i needed Mab's help so i had to be there...

so after my mask was done i rushed down to the library to pick Shu Lynn up.... took her to the beach... it was kinda just to kill time.... i got a little too close to a jellyfish... luckily i spotted it soon enough to move away... anyway after the beach we went to Gurney.... watched HSM3 : Senior Year.... the movie was great and the songs were good but i dont like the fact that every song they sang ends with them on stage.... i mean isnt a musical supposed to be like natural? like a person actually talking but instead they put it into a song? anyway overall that show was great...

anyway after all that, i dropped Shu Lynn home and went home myself.... took a long bath and got all my clothes ready.... got dressed for the prize presentation and left my house for G Hotel... i wore black jeans, black shirt, brown tie, and canvas shoes........ anyway when i arrived i bumped into Alex, Johnny, and Cze Yang..... we made our way to the ballroom and got there just in time for the ceremony......

when the ceremony ended, Mabel, Honey, Vivonne and myself rushed to Honey's house to change into our dinner clothes..... i was once again the driver... lol.... we managed to get back to G Hotel in time for Mab's speech... i wont go into detail or else this post will never end...

we had fun during the dinner... there were bad performances and i thought i lost my sense of hearing but other than that, it was a near perfect night..... we took pictures after the dinner and chat and not long after, it was already almost 12am....

the prom photos are all in my Facebook and my friends' and to those who dont have Facebook, GET IT!!

ok now to some sensitive issues....... i do not wanna mention it here but i was forced to by someone who is currently cramping her Science for tomorrow's paper.... i gained weight... AHAHAHA... what you think it would be very deep?? guess again... but yea i have gained weight... and from what i'm getting from her, its alot of weight... i beg to differ.... anyway i do know i gained weight.... i havent been in competitive squash since June and i havent trained since August... the last time i held my racquet was in September.... i have pledged to do 50 sit-ups and push-ups every night before i sleep and try to wake up early on days i dont go to school and go for runs..... i need to do it...

its 13 days till SPM and i cant say i'm as panicked as i was on the final week building up to PMR.... but i'm close... i have conceded my History and Bio and currently trying to save my Chem and Add Maths..... i made a bet with a certain peaKOK that the one who doesnt get a minimum of 5 As will have to cut their hair... shave to chinese school lenght for guys, and cut short for girls.... i think i got 4 subjects covered but this 4 who doesnt right? Eng, BM, Maths, EST...... i'm trying to push my Physics, Moral and Add Maths to that level.... oh well....

i guess that's all for now.... i slept from 8pm till 1am just now and i think its time for me to go back to sleep.... signing out.......
ivan..

short update....

i should be wearing this to the prom.....

yes people..... that's me...

i doubt even my closest friends have seen me dressed like this before...

anyway i gotta go..... still havent really confirmed my outfit yet.....

ivan..

Quick Update...

here's a quick post.. i'm just gonna crap here because i dont know what to talk about.. so here goes....

went to school today (wow how interesting =.=) a few of the guys turned up... now we all know why my classmates turn up on tuesdays.......... BADMINTON..... so we played doubles and singles and to everyone's surprise... TAY CZE YANG came to school... yea... anyway i played very badly today... frustrated my doubles partner alot... played singles with Cze Yang and actually WON... my back was hurting alot and i couldnt breathe after that though.....

after badminton, everyone just died... we just sit in class and do nothing.... Nic and I watched The Dark Knight on my iPod and Madam Chin nearly pissed me off..... again with the magazine stuff..... its like my face has "SCOLD ME ABOUT THE INCOMPLETE MAGAZINE" printed on my face...

came back home right after school and didnt do much since then... i'm waiting for my mum to call saying she is back in Penang... obviously i gotta go fetch her from the bus terminal.....

Manchester United play against Celtic tonight but i have no time to talk about that... someone is waiting for me to update...

finally seeing Shu Lynn again tomorrow since saturday... i know it doesnt seem like long but when you're me, it does feel that long.... i'm doing my chemistry notes now and it isnt easy because my tuition teacher is so particular.... i hope he doesnt read this.....

annual dinner is on friday and i finally picked what i'm going to wear..

Padini shirt and pants..

all i'm missing now is a belt and a white tie..... yea i've decided to wear a white tie.... i guess that's all for now.. seems like i said quite alot within these few minutes....... my time is up... there you go Shu Lynn... =)

ivan..

1 day...... 1 month.......

its like a day before it'll be EXACTLY A MONTH BEFORE SPM...

anyway that isnt what i wanna talk about.. recently i've been having a little of what i like to call auto-fever... i have this obsession over cars.. i mean i dont know much about the complicating stuff but still interested.. i keep wanting to know about the latest cars and the ones in production and shit like that..

it took me 7 days before PMR to finally have my panic button activated and went on study mode but now its SPM and a month away and i'm still on CARS?? ok so it is what i wanna talk about.. sue me.. anyway, the last time (PMR), it took a precise lightning strike to fry only my CPU when all the sockets are connected to make me finally take my book seriously.. what now? i'm using this piece of shit of an ancient laptop and i'm still going? my desktop never came back from the ashes.. it stayed fried.. with good reason i suppose..

tuition for BM, Physics, Add Maths and Chemistry should do me some good but what about Bio? History? well i've decided i'm going to live with it and choose a path in live that doesnt require those subjects.. i mean, English, EST, BM, Maths, and a possible miracle for Add Maths, Physics, Chemistry and my average moral scoring would at least be of SOME use in the future right? i was considering choosing something that is accosiated to sports but i've been told it requires Bio.............. i'm dead.. i have thought about automotive engineering or whatever you call that but do i really wanna be a grease monkey my whole life?

anyway this post will make people go I TOLD YOU SO, IVAN... not that i dont deserve it but its too late now.. but what's more worrying is the fact that in 2 months time, me and all the other 5th formers will be thrown into a bigger battle.......... REALITY... i mean life is just begining.. schooling life is coming to an end and we're gonna be going to college and stuff and getting jobs..... does time really fly that fast? i still remember the day i walked into PFS as a form 1 and being afraid i cant fit in... i remember one day in standard 3 when i transfered to SKBG from a chinese school that i regretted going.. it all felt like just not long ago.. where did all that time go? it also felt like just last week when i was taking driving lessons and taking the JPJ test.. my childhood flew by so quickly.... and i can only think of a few exciting things that has happend till now..

how will being an adult feel like? i mean i'm like less than 3 years from turning 20.... TWENTY!! i better stop here before i start thinkin about when i turn 30........... 0.0

the blur face never goes away... Beijing 2002, 11 years old..

here comes the dorky specs..... Shanghai 2003, 12 years old..

Shanghai..

football fanatic at the Seoul World Cup Stadium.... South Korea 2004, 13 years old..

New Zealand 2005 picture unavailable..........

taller.. thinner... smarter?? lol... Bangkok/Chiang Mai, Thailand 2006, 15 years old..

even taller... skinnier... still not smarter.. HAHA... United States of America 2007, 16 years old..

next stop........... Siam Reap, Cambodia 2008.......
COMING SOON..

ivan..

it has been awhile....

yes i know it has been ages since i last did a proper post..

woke up fairly early for a sunday yesterday.... went to the temple to pray for the 9th lunar month.. the place was crowded, hot, smokey, and loud.. anyway after praying mum, dad and myself went for freakfast.. it was near the temple.. a roadside stall selling drinks and koay teow th'ng... the drinks were expensive.. it was most probably because the drinks dude saw us come in a Harrier.. because every other person was served in smaller plastic cups but our's were huge glass mugs.. =.= speaking of taking advantage..

this ship was HAND MADE..

anyway, went to the Honda showroom after that.. dad wanted to test-drive the new Honda Accord but i was hoping he'd give the Honda Jazz a go.. unfortunately, there was only one salesman and he was busy confirming the sale of a Honda City to another family.. so we walked around and checked out the Jazz, Stream and City...

the test car.. i like this colour..

i would fancy having a car with this interior..

anyone knows where to find this kind of steering wheel? i wanna replace my car's wheel..

the Stream is pretty good looking too..

the interior aint too bad either..

oh i've also been looking for things to add or improve in my car.. things like my headlights, sound system, and possibly adding that what-ever-its-called that Dennis installed in his car for more power and fuel efficiency..

projector headlights.. cost about RM1000 but looks very nice..


the Sony Xplod player i'm planning to get..

well i dont wanna bore you people with more of this crap so i guess that's it..

ivan..

i'm sorry guys (and YAN) for not updating for awhile.. and this isnt exactly a post either.. its just that i dont have anything to blog about these days.. i will post as soon as something interesting comes up.. promise..

wont be going to school so often now that trials are over.. will only go when there is badminton and football.. its private tuition and home study from now on..

well, i'll keep this a short update.. going off to PISA to swim.. need the exercise.. will post up pics of my cara IF and WHEN the new stuff is installed..

ivan..

A Little Bit Longer.....

i'm posting this as i have nothing to do.. well actually i do but i just dont wanna do it now.. here goes..

A Little Bit Longer...
The Jonas Brothers

this album is pretty good to be honest.. not all the songs are great but the likes of Burnin' Up, Pushin' Me Away, Sorry, Video Girl, Shelf, One Man Show, A Little Bit Longer, can actually make you wanna listen to them..

the other songs are BB Good, Love Bug, Tonight, Cant Have You, Got Me Goin Crazy.. these arent as good as S.O.S, Hold On, Goodnight and Goodbye, When You Look Me In The Eyes.. both Jonas Brothers and A Little Bit Longer are good albums.. but The Jonas Brothers are getting a little too much publicity for just these songs.. i dont get why the girls go crazy over them.. looks? be a fan for their music for god's sake.. sheesh..

anyway, i still think this album is pretty good..
ivan..

Counting down the days till doomsday.....

ignore the title.. its obviously about SPM.. well, mum decided to get me private tutors for chem and add maths (possibly other subjects).. so i will be going to school less i guess.. will only go for PJ and Football..

trials have been horrible.. i dont even wanna look at the results.. i just wanna get it over with and look ahead to SPM.. we will be getting air-cond for SPM.. the school has decided to install in the 2 classrooms used for SPM..

moving on to my car, it will be back on Thursday.. well it SHOULD be back on thursday.. my mum said it has been washed inside out and polished.. after taking it back, i need to send it to tin the rear windshield.. and after that, sound system hunting.. i cant wait to get new sound system for my myvi.. hopefully my mum keeps to her word..

drove the Harrier to school yesterday.. it was very confortable and you dont have to worry about being bullied.. haha.. however, some sad news...... my mum announched that she is planning to sell the Mini.. 0.0 she said its not fuel efficient.. that i can agree.. its like only 1.6 and the consumption is worse than the harrier (2.4) and the merc (2.3).. well, i dont have much to object because its not my decision to make.. i'll just have to worry about my Myvi..

i guess that's all i have to talk about..

ivan..

Latest Update on my car!!

well, good news is that all the new parts arrived and are already assembled.. bad news is that it isnt sprayed yet.. so now my car is black and gold.. WTF.. i still have a colour change in my sights but i dont think it will happen.. if it doesnt rain as much as last week, my car will be back by Saturday..

now i already have upgrades on my mind but obviously i dont have the money.. i'm thinking of changing the speakers and the player.. at least two additional speakers will be added if this plan materialises.. and a friend of mine suggested having those pop-out screens.. the stock player in the Myvi is HUGE! and lame.. so i have to remove the whole piece and put in one with two slots.. in one i'll install a new player and in the other the screen maybe?

either that or a 6 disc changer.. the player must have USB and iPod compatibility.. getting lazy burning discs.. so to those reading this, please give me some suggestions.. interior first.. its about time i make an effort to make that car better to drive..

ivan..

everyone probably knew by now that Dimitar Berbatov has FINALLY joined Manchester United after months and months of speculation.. i just wanna say WELCOME DIMITAR!! =.=

#9 thank god Louis Saha left!! GO DIMI!!

on to more serious matters, trials starts tomorrow.. *creepy music* and my trials results will be used to apply for my scholarship to US.. *even creepier music* honestly as i grow older, my studies suck more and more.. i used to know stuff.. now i know shit.. and i'm more focused on what i'm going to do after SPM than what am i going to do BEFORE SPM.. i miss squash.. i miss the tournaments and travelling with my friends to other states.. is it possible to train again after SPM? Allan? and i'll only have a year to play.. i regret not pushing myself when i had the chance.. i wasnt serious about squash in my earlier years..

time flies.. and i just want SPM to end.. updates on my car.. repairs has just started.. not that driving the merc isnt cool and all but driving the Myvi has its perks.. i used to complain about the car and keep asking my parents to get a different car.. now i just want that piece of Milo tin back.. i do want to change a few things though.. like my sound system perhaps? any ideas guys? i actually just want to change the player.. i want to be able to connect my iPod in my car.. getting a little tired of burning discs..

i guess that's it for now.. will try to update on my trials.. till then..

So the other day while "doing ed-board work" in school, i decided to look something up in YouTube.. i heard Mabel and Haneesha talk (and sing AND sorta dance) about it and it didnt make sense to me so i wanted to find out what the whole thing was about.. its called The Yes Dance.. it was performed by Robert Hoffman (Step Up 2) at this thing called the carnival.. its hilarious.. so i want to spread it to the world..



there's also this other video Haneesha showed me.. its called the Spongebob Dance.. (wtf??) yes SPONGEBOB.. the steps are pretty much repeated the whole time but still.. its.......err...... unique??



enjoy..

well today is the 51st independence day for Malaysia.. honestly i dont see what the hype is all about.. i know i should be thankful to be in a country free from natural disasters and wars but with all the problems sufacing these days, what's the difference? so i am NOT in the merdeka mood.. never had actually..

woke up pretty early for a sunday.. bout 9-ish.. had my breakfast then watched some tv.. bathed and got ready to go out.. went to this temple to pray.. according to my mum, it was supposed to help me with my trials and SPM.. well i really hope it helps.. but seeing as i RARELY pray, is it fair to say that god will see to my needs last? whatever..

went to Tesco and had McD.. then bought some stuff from Tesco and had Baskin Robins.. it IS the 31st today.. went tuition then came back home.. yada yada yada.. now i'm here..

got some pics from Haneesha.. she took pics of me, Lin Kai, Wesly, and Chris playin football.. it was for the school magazine.. anyway i looked through it and here are some of the nice ones (with me in it of course)..

shooting with the outfoot..

floating ball.. dont go away.. =.=

Lin Kai going for the header.. i like this shot.. too bad i dont have a similar one..

i got some tricks up my sleeve.. i think..

got the ball again..

*gasp* Wesley is chasing the ball.. ah leave him be..

yeah.. passed Wesley no sweat..

basic stuff..

passed Wesley AGAIN.. getting used to it..

see what i can do..

come on Lin Kai.. lets see what you've got..

love this shot.. not my expression though..

no ball.. what are we chasing??

go get the ball!!

CHARGE!!!!

wheee!!! watch me go..

got tired..

well i guess that's all.. i know i keep saying this but I SERIOUSLY NEED TO START STUDYING!! no way i can make it but i need to get as much in my head as possible..
