Back In Kuching

Alright! I’m finally back in Kuching. After all the late night supper and studying, struggle to understand studies and not to mention little hours of sleep, at least I can finally have my deserved one month holiday.

Well, I reached back here last Wednesday. 12am. Took the last flight from KL at 1015pm. Honestly, I really enjoyed that day. Had an exam paper in the morning at 1130am and before that I didn’t even have sleep for the last 12 hours (or more) and then went for a few game of pool with my roomie at Taylor’s College before heading to KLIA at 845pm. The only sleep I got was the 2 hours flight. Felt sufficient enough to last me another 4 hours to drive around in Kuching to waste time before I sleep. Hahaha!

Currently, I’m in bing! at Premiere 101. My route at home got struck by lightning a few days before I came back. I actually brought back my P1 W1MAX but apparently there is no line here. Oh well, it could be otherwise… I haven’t paid my P1 bill for 2 months I think. Hahaha!

Well… I guess that’s it for a short update. I think I really need to get a new router before going to Miri and back to mum’s village. At least I don’t have to go out every time I wanna go online. It’s killing me doing this.

Random

About a week to go. I better get my sleeping time right again and study more. Sigh.. Damn it pool! I’m so addicted to that game.

Finals post on WordPress? I

Know what? WordPress sucks (for me). Firstly, it allows no custom HTML codes unless (maybe) you pay a certain amount of money to be able to edit the codes. Secondly, some of the widgets are not functioning like Meebo which suppose to allow you to put something like a chat box (similiar to Cbox). Then another thing that makes me not satisfied at all is that people can spam your comments without problem. I mean, I have 9 comments by people that I know but tons of those I don’t know. Although they are categorized as spam, whenever I delete them, it just pops back. Shit. Enough said.. I’m gonna migrate back to Blogger..

That is after my hiatus. I will still update but will be extremely irregular. My finals is in 2 weeks and I’ll be back in Kuching in a month. Yess! Finally!

Sleepless night

I had a short sleep (not nap okay?!). I really slept. But now feeling quite awake. I’ve been feeling fatigued for the past few days and not to mention insomnia. It’s been really really really hard for me to sleep earlier than 3am. sigh…

I dunno about tonight. I have this silly feeling that I’m gonna be awake till about 5am or 6am. Shit!

Title-less I

Have you ever wonder how much does it cost to own a pool table? Ahaha. I’m just being random. I’ve been addicted to pool lately so don’t bother that silly question.

Here I’m blogging when I’m supposed to be in my Basic Math for Chemistry class (it’s all about differentiation, integration, matrices and vectors.. How is that basic?) which starts at 5.00pm till 6.30pm. It’s kinda stupid that they put a Math based class late in the evening when most people have their brain saturated with lessons from earlier on in the day or when someone just woke up from a nap. Great huh? Honestly, quite a number of us struggle to keep up with the lesson or even staying awake.

Today, not water in the hostel. It’s gonna last till tomorrow 6.00am. Too bad for those who walk to faculty and back to college. You’re gonna stink. Hahaha! That’s one of the reason why I chose to stay in my room and just lie down, study (finals in 3 weeks), do some notes, surfing the net and blogging. However, studying has not been easy. I can’t seem to sit quietly to study these last few days and even if I do, I need music. Then, music spoils my concentration cause trance music is all that I’m listening to right now and other song can’t put me in study mood. Hell Pitbull’s I Know You Want Me could make me study. I’d be wanting you. Hahahahaa!

Oh, I just watched The Ugly Truth a few days ago. Haha! Not bad. Quite funny… Somehow I start to enjoy watching comedy movies instead of the rest now. Transformers are exceptions; it was Awe….. Wait for it.. Some! And come to think of it, I’m not watching Smallville (Season 9), Gossip Girl (Season 3), Supernatural (Season 5) and How I Met Your Mother (Season 5) as well. I used to watch Glee (Season 1) too but after 3 episodes, I decided to stop. It doesn’t seem to interest me like the rest. I think keeping up with 4 shows is enough for me as they air at different days in the week so I can look forward to each one of it whenever I have time. Now is I’m gonna need an external hard disk to keep them. Hmm…. Add to my Christmas wish list?

Oh great! Dinner is served in 20 minutes. I’m gonna get ready to go down. I’m sooo looking forward to dinner. *sarcasm*

By the way, I might migrate back to Blogspot cause CSS editing in WordPress requires you to pay yearly to allow you to edit CSS and you can’t use custom HTML codes.

The BRO code

Now, I got this off someone’s Facebook profile so I’d like to thank him for posting it up. By the way, the BRO code is from the TV series How I Met Your Mother. If I’m not mistaken, the show is in it’s 5th season which just began a week ago or two. Enjoy!

1. Bros before hoes. Always remember, girlfriends come and go, but your boys are always there. Breaking this rule is to commit the cardinal sin against Team Testosterone.

2. Never drink the last beer, unless you’ve been granted specific permission that it’s OK.

3. If a girl falls into the following criteria, she is off limits forever until the end of time:

A. Was an ex-girlfriend.

However, if it’s your buddy’s cousin, well she’s up for grabs, and you’re welcome to rub it in his face for years to come.

4. Never diss a guy if his team just lost a crushing game.

5. You must never own a cat.

6. If you get 2 tickets to the big game, the priority list for granting the second ticket is as follows:

D. The mailman.
E. The UPS guy.
F. NASA.
G. John Kerry.
….Z. Your girlfriend.

7. You are allowed to enjoy exactly one chick TV show, and one chick flick. You may have no more. And if you like Grease, well, we’re already too late.

14. It’s alright to cheat at any game where money isn’t involved. In certain circumstances, relationships may be classified as “games.”

15. Don’t tell other guys elaborate stories about your weightlifting exercise routine. No one cares.

16. Never openly question another guy’s sports wisdom, unless said information specifically pertains to your favorite team. It doesn’t matter how ludicrous the other guy sounds telling you that Jake Plummer was better than Steve McNair last season, let him be.

17. When out with the guys, never accept a call from your girlfriend—unless she’s dying or trapped under a burning fuel truck, and if that’s the case, make it quick.

A timely manner is open to interpretation based on the initial Bro’s viewing and processing of the potential feminine conflagration. Said Bro must use any and all methods of media distribution at his disposal, including but not limited to: telecommunications, elbow nudging, fiber optics, the Broney express, and postcards. If an informed Bro is unable to witness the girl fight firsthand, the spotter Bro is responsible for documenting and relating details of the girl fight via pictures, video*, or barring any other reasonable method, interpretive dance and/or pantomime.

In a scenario in which two or more Bros are engaged in entertainment of the adult variety, one Bro is forbidden from intentionally or unintentionally touching another Bro in ANY capacity, including but not limited to; the high five, the first bump, or the congratulatory gluteal pat.

If no bro is affected, his best bro must choose a modest punishment in public.

Issue?

Right now I have that Rock-a-by-baby song stuck in my head and it’s doing so well in making me feel sleepy. I turned on my iTunes, listened to Linkin Park – New Divide, Tiesto – Carpe Noctum (Fire Element mix) and My Chemical Romance – Welcome to the Black Parade but none seem to be able to keep me from being sleepy. I think I need to change my music taste. Suggestion?

I’m now trying to link my Facebook with my blog so that any updates on this blog can be posted on Facebook too. It seem rather hard though. Or maybe it cannot be done.

A while ago before I started blogging, as I entered the Library, I saw a girl was stopped by the security guard at the entrance. For what offence? Wearing a 3/4 jean and a stripy shirt (which is not revealing at all but the security guard thought it’s a bit revealing). Honestly, I have to say I did get culture shock when I first came here. No. More like etiquette shock. Wearing short pants (be it slightly above knee level or 3/4 pants) is almost like wearing bikini!! For goodness sake!! What can I wear then? If I just wanna go out a while for a little walk to the shop, that’s what I’d wear. Back in Kuching, who gives a crap! Here, it’s like a huge no-no for you short pants lovers. Yeah.. If you go to shopping mall, forget about wearing those Billabong or Quicksilver 3/4 or surfer pants. You’ll get eyes staring at you. Not hot girls.

I had my own encounter with the university authorities about dress code too. Last Friday when we had Basic Entrepreneurship Culture seminar, I wore my 3/4 pants. The thing is I’ve sat in the hall for almost 15 minutes when a f*cking old, sh*t head, stup*d, annoying, get-your-finger-off-my-leg, better-you-go-die, I-so-wanna-exaggerate-more-curses-on-you man came and touch my leg, pointing to the knee.

“Kenapa pakai ini?”
*In my heart – What the f*ck?! I wanna wear mah!!* “Oh, tak boleh ka? Mau saya keluar?”
“Tak pe.. Tak pe.” And he walks away.
I was sitting there, looking back at him, thinking “Whatthehell?!”, still fiery with anger for that short less than 10 seconds of talk. Honestly, if you wanna chase me out, why don’t you just do it? Coward? That’s the thing I love university. They have to treat us as adult (that we know what is good or bad, right or wrong, and proper etiquette *I don’t give a f*ck about it*) no matter what the situation.

*This part of the post is edited at 815pm due to awful wifi service in the library*
Would you look at that? So all the money I paid to the University go where? Someone’s pocket? Someone’s wallet? I don’t mind if it goes to Ministry of Sound. Hahahaha! I paid a friggin’ RM2389.60 for my stay in the university campus and I expect something good. I don’t give a crap about the government paying more that I did (I believe every public university students have some of their fees subsidized by the government) cause they’re supposed to do that! Well, that’s Malaysia for you..

Oh.. I’ve yet to mention the people in University Malaya. For first timers, I really wonder what they think of University Malaya. I wonder what goes through their mind when hearing achievements that University Malaya has and it’s history. I so wanna hear from a person whom I never tell about University Malaya before and all they know is what they heard or read about it. Wanna know what I have to say? 2 words: F*cking horrible. As simple as that. Why do I say that? Let me list down:

1. Shared toilet and showers – Crap. You get people with voices like frogs singing to songs like How Do I Live by Trisha Yearwood and if I were the girl that guy is singing to, I’d be thinking about how do I live with you.
2. Some more singing – Yup. Like at 2am or 3am when people are sleeping!! Or trying to sleep (the latter applies to me).
3. Hostel food – It’s called hostel food. Gordon Ramsey would die of tasting it. Jamie Oliver maybe would call it exotic.
4. Racism – The motto for University Malaya is “UM is One towards 1Malaysia”. Hypocrites.
5. Clothing – I don’t know why this is not top of the list. You get very conscious of what you wear and always try to remove as little clothes as possible without upsetting them (especially girls).
6. Bus services – Yes, we do have bus service in campus although UM is not that big compared to some university in Malaysia. However, walking is always the better option.
7. RM2.50 – The cost for washing your clothes using washing machine. Now, not to say I’m poor or anything, but we’re students for goodness sake! It’s supposed to be free! Maybe I’m being frugal.
8. 5am or 6am (I’m not too sure) – Your don’t-have-to-set alarm rings.
9. A can of sardine in tomato sauce – That’s how you gonna be like in a room with 3 people sharing.
10. 30 seconds – The approximate time you have to wait for Google to load especially when you’re 4 to 5 meters away from the router of your hostel floor.

Now, who said University Malaya was great? I can say more but more would mean chances of me having to answer the Vice Chancellor would triple. Or otherwise.

My Current Update for you

It is already 137 a.m. now and I was supposed to do as much as possible my Physical Chemistry report. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, it is not even close to a quarter done.

Finally a blog for myself? Anything new you may ask. Nothing much I may say.

Okay, maybe I was lying about that “nothing much I may say” part. I’m now in Kuala Lumpur (for those who still think I am in Kuching) and studying again. I don’t wanna study but I have to. Majoring in Applied Chemistry sounds like it is hard but I bet Fahriee can do as well as I’m doing.

Chemistry suck!!

That’s all I can think of right now.

Anyway, I’m studying in University Malaya now (and everyone seem to be proud of it, not me). What people say as the pioneer of universities in Malaya and Malaysia, I’m sure you gotta respect the fact that it is one of the best university in our country. I think I can say a few more positive things about University Malaya but I don’t wanna use my blog as some where you can take my testimony of how good this place is. I want the otherwise (and I can sense evil thoughts rushing through my minute brain). However, you have to mail (Yahoo! Mail or Hotmail) me personally to get my thoughts. Putting it up on my blog is like asking me to severe a pig head and bring it into my hostel. Hahahah! Since I’m in my first year (not to mention first semester), I don’t wanna be kicked out of University Malaya and have a dropped-out-of-university tag on me for the rest of my life.

Hmm… I’ve said nothing much but it felt a lot. I must have gotten rusty after months or a year not blogging. I just found out a few of my friends have stopped blogging too so I don’t have them in my link section. Also, just to let you know, I stopped using my old blog, http://www.ivanmarlangbulang.blogspot.com, and use this one as a new one. I promise more updates (as frequent as possible) although not that many for this month. I will try to put up a calender of events that I’m gonna have in the coming weeks for month.

Till then…. Adios!

I’m a WordPress-er

Finally I officially migrated to WordPress although I have to admit that I use to have a WordPress accout long ago. Nonetheless, I will be updating this site as frequent as possible.

Now, this post is for testing WordPress. Real updates are coming soon..
