Alpha Recalled – Alice and Adam

It all happened on one fateful Friday morning, 8 am. Madam Kavitha had decided to merge PE 11 and PE 12 into one English class for once. Now I say fateful not because I, by some stroke of fate, actually managed to get up and attend it, but because she asked up to participate in a class exercise – one person would begin a story, and the next person would follow it up with something. Now all this happened almost 9 months ago, and it ALMOST slipped through my mind until I bumped into two people this morning – One was Madam Kavitha herself (good to know she’s still as awesome as ever), and the second was Gary from PE 11. Oh but what did Gary have to do with this? Read on~

NOTE 2: I can’t really remember who said what, but if I do, I’ll put a bracket at the back of each sentence to indicate who said that particular line. All the other text in bracketed italics are my own thoughts.

Once upon a time, there was a poor farmer named Mr Ali. (Su Khi – Typical once upon a time start up I guess? And why Mr Ali? Lol )

Mr Ali was very poor and he had to bend his back and work very hard to make ends meet. (Chao Jin – Typical Chao Jin sentence, full of “oh-so-awesome” idioms and the like. Meh. )

Mr Ali had a son by the name of Adam.

One day, Mr Ali found an egg in the forest.

He decided to give it to Adam to play. ( WHY would he give it to his son instead of selling it? XD)

Suddenly, the egg hatched! And you know what came out? It was a beautiful girl! And she was naked! (Gary – Fuck I swear I almost fell out of my chair when I heard this. Bumping into Gary this morning reminded me of this and the whole story suddenly flew back into my head! Good going mate! >:D )

Even though she was naked, she didn’t have any legs or lower body, so don’t let your imaginations run wild (Navinn – ROFL I remember this too. Smooth going there too~)

Her name was Alice. (I’ll be honest here, I was going to name my 2nd daughter Alice. Not any more. Who came up with this name anyway? T_T

Adam decided to build her a wheelchair.

He bought steel, cloth etc and started crafting her a wheelchair. (… Wait, I thought they were so poor his dad had to work till his back bent to make ends meet?)

Finally, the wheelchair was done.

Adam put Alice on the wheelchair when suddenly, there was a loud noise! (Apparently it was by Samritpal~ Wait there’s more…)

And all of a sudden, there was a really bad smell! (Hui Juan – After being forced by Samritpal. I FELL OUT OF THE FUCKING CHAIR LAUGHING. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL )

The fart was so strong that the wheelchair collapsed! (Kethes? I swear I was laughing so hard I was LITERALLY ROFLing)

So Adam had to make her a new one.

One day, Adam decided to bring Alice shopping for clothes. (… Wait wait wait, so she’s been naked all this while? WTF??)

After choosing her clothes, Adam decided to buy Alice a bed, because she was tired and she wanted to sleep. (WTF a bed?? And I thought he was poor! XD)

As they were walking home, they were ambushed by a gangster.

Adam bravely defended Alice from the gangster.

When they finally reached home, Alice and Adam slept together on the same bed.

The next day, however, Mr Ali was furious and he ran into the room with an axe.

Adam tried to fend off his father while Alice ran to call for help. (… Wait, ran? RAN?? I thought she had no legs?!?! And WTF, how did she go shopping then? O.o)

When the police finally came, Adam was already dead.

Alice decided to travel to the city.

Alice then met a guy named Daniel. (Prakash – I fell out of my chair again. I swear Madam Kavitha was going “Please end this story and stop adding in anymore nonsense T_T” )

They fell in love and soon got married with 6 kids. (Wait wait wait wait wait… I thought she didn’t have a lower body? How the hell did they have kids?!?! O.O)

Their 6 kids soon bought houses elsewhere and went off to live on their own.

One day however, Daniel was rushed to the hospital.

He had a heart-attack and died.

One day, Alice summoned her children back. Locking the door, she turned to her children and said, “I miss your father. But don’t worry, we’ll all be reunited soon, one big happy family…” Alice then takes out a lighter and flicks it. The whole house explodes as she had earlier smoked the house with sulphur gas. (Ended by Yours Truly, Lee Guan Da Psycho)

BAD THE END

And this was supposed to be literature practice to help us identify plot elements (Exposition, Climax etc). What a nice story *tear*

NOTE 3: Shit, typing this post made me miss my Alpha days even more. I miss you guys from PE 12 T_T

“What if?”: Prologue

Once upon a time, the world was ruled by an evil dictatress (dictator + ress lah!!) named Selvarani.

Whoops wrong image.

Ah there we go. Image censored to protect innocently readers from mental scarring said person’s privacy.

Alpha Fantasized – “What if?”

What if we still lived in the medieval ages? What if wars were still being fought using swords and spears instead of guns and missiles? What if evil barons who ruled the land still existed? And what if PE 12 had met under these similar but slightly different circumstances?

NICE BOAT proudly brings you “What if?”, a PE 12 presentation >:3

Alpha Revisited: Semester One and the Winds of New Beginning

This post is dedicated to my awesome classmates of PE 12, who may or may not be in Malacca during the next semester. Wherever you may be, I wish you all best of luck, and god bless.

I’m an ungrateful bastard… I don’t deserve this much…

After taking 2 painkillers last night, I subjected myself to a semi-sleepless night, trying my best to fall asleep (at best I would fall asleep for an hour, and wake up for another hour, and then sleep for another hour, etc etc). At 7 am, I went to the toilet to throw up again, only this time, since I hadn’t eaten anything the day before, what came out was nasty-smelling gastric juices – horrible stuff indeed. In addition to pain in my back and pain in my stomach, I now suffered an additional pain in my right waist, which was enough to make me down another painkiller and try to get some sleep.

At 9 am, I was awakened by the sounds of my handphone ringing, and people pressing on the doorbell outside. I groggily picked myself up and opened the door, only to find… My parents.

I was completely speechless.

After inviting my mum and dad in, I checked my phone and sure enough, there were a couple of messages there telling me about them coming down to Malacca to see me (which I missed due to me sleeping right after throwing up). I told them everything that happened so far, right up to how the taxi-driver gave me a cutthroat price (“Aiyor! If it were me I would have just given him RM 3 and walked out of the car!” – My dad -.-).

My mum then told me that she suspected the doctor was blowing stuff out of proportion, and that my kidney wasn’t dehydrating like he said it was. She then took out a can of “Yoko Yoko”, before announcing that “sometimes, these work better on sprains”. I was about to argue with her about what the doctor said, but she said simply: “If Panadol works to reduce the pain, it must be a sprain. Read the bottle if you don’t believe me.” Sure enough, the label on the bottle did say “Relieves Fever, Headaches and Sprains”.

After I took a shower, my parents brought me out to take something light. We ended up eating mee-hun soup. I didn’t have the appetite to even finish half a bowl.

My parents then brought me to U-Center to get me some 100 Plus (Isotonic drink, helps replenish the body of lost salts). It was here that I threw up again, vomiting out my entire breakfast. Strangely enough, I felt a bit better after throwing up.

After parking outside IXORA, my mum told me the usual stuff: Don’t eat any oily food, sleep early, don’t use the computer so much etc etc. However, for some strange reason, I found myself deeply moved inside. As my mum gave me a farewell hug, I wanted to really just break down and cry on the spot. Even after their “we won’t care if you die on Malaccan streets” threats, they still came all the way down from Seremban to see me, and in the early morning too.

I feel horrible right now. It’s worse than the pain I felt yesterday. I’m a disobedient child, an ungrateful bastard. I don’t deserve this much. I should just be left to die on the streets, while vultures scavenge on my remains. I feel absolutely terrible now.

It’s been a long day, but I can safely say that I learned 3 things out of this:
1- I should drink more water.
2- I’ve got wonderful friends and roommates here in Malacca.
3- I’ve got awesome parents that care about me.

I’m a really, REALLY ungrateful bastard. I don’t deserve this much… T.T

Suffering…

This morning, I got up as usual, and proceeded to take my shower and empty my bowels. You know what I mean (Hint: Big Business).

After that, I went for lunch at IXORA food court. Throughout lunch, I could feel a lingering pain in my stomach, and was suspected that my “business” was far from over. I quickly finished up my lunch, went back to my room, and went to the toilet for the 2nd round.

By the time I had finished, however, I felt a sharp pain in my back, as well as an urge to throw up. Dismissing these thoughts are temporary pain, I continued my day as usual – until I felt another pain in my stomach.

This time, however, after I had left the toilet for the 3rd time, my back was hurting like crazy, and I took this as a sign to go lie down and get some rest. 30 minutes later, I woke up to find my entire back screaming in pain, and I knew that something was wrong.

I quickly got one of my rommates to accompany me to the nearest clinic (thanks man!) in MMU. The clinic, however, was closed. We then went to the clinic outside EP, only to find it also closed.

At wits end, we took a taxi to the nearest clinic he knew, which happened to be nearby MMU corner. I was charged RM 6 for it, a true cut-throat price, but by then I was too tired to bother arguing.

The doctor diagnosed my case as dehydration. The pain in my back was my kidney hurting, and it seemed that even it was becoming dehydrated. Only then did I realize I hadn’t been drinking much water these past few days, and what he said made sense.

So right now, I’m stuck with a major pain in my back, as well as occasional pains in my stomach. It’s nothing I can’t handle, but yet again, for something like this to happen right before my exams, it really dealt a blow to me. I just hope I’ll be well enough by Wednesday to take my Pre-Calculus exam….

The price of over-estimation

I had my Physics Test today. The paper was pretty average – not mind-numbingly easy, but not mind-f*ckingly difficult either.

Now let me explain a bit about the format. For Section 1, there are 6 questions, from which we are required to answer 4, each worth 5 marks. For Section 2, there are 3 questions, and we are required to answer 2. Put simply, there were 9 questions in total. And we had 9 chapters for Physics 1.

Now putting two and two together, I deduced that there would be 1 question for each chapter, and hence it would be safe to “Discard” 3 chapters, since we were only required to answer 6 questions in total. I decided to totally ditch Chapter 4 (Torque), Chapter 5 (Work-Energy) and Chapter 7 (Mechanics of Matter).

When I first read Section 1 of my test paper, I was pleased to find out that there was indeed only 1 question for each of the chapters – put simply, I had struck gold. I immediately crossed out Questions 4 and 5, and focus on answering Question 1, 2, 3 and 6. 1 was fine, 2 was meh, 3 was simple, but 6 was rather long and complex. I reckon I must have spent at least 10 – 15 minutes doing that one question alone.

Then came Section B. Again, I crossed out the question for Chapter 7, and did those of Chapter 8 and 9….. Only to realize each question contained HALF OF EACH CHAPTER. Question 7 was Chapter 7 + 8, Question 8 was Chapter 7 + 9, and Question 9 was Chapter 8 + 9. Oh Shi–

In the end, I dug from the deep recesses of my memory whatever I could recall of Chapter 7, and began ploughing through the Questions. To add insult to injury, the only question I had prepared for (Q9, Chapter 8 + 9) turned out to be f*cking difficult.

After the exam, I wearily passed up my question paper, and out of curiosity, read the 2 questions for Section 1 that I skipped. The question for Chapter 5, Work-Energy (Q5), was pretty difficult. I breathed a sigh of relief, before moving to Question 4.

QUESTION 4 WAS F*CKING SIMPLE.

Heck, I could tell the answers by just LOOKING at the question, never mind doing it. If I had actually bothered to read and answer it, I would have finished it in 5 minutes MAX.

But I didn’t. Thanks to my over-confidence and over-perceptiveness, I threw 5 free marks into the drain. Worse, I jeopardized my own results by deliberately ditching a chapter I could have otherwise understand perfectly. I’m damned pissed at myself right now, for being such an over-confident narcissist. If only I hadn’t over-estimated myself, I could have maybe done a little better.

But unfortunately, I didn’t.

And now, I’m gonna have to pay the price for it.

Me in a Ponytail?

I’m dead serious – I plan to keep my hair into a (small) ponytail, regardless of what my parents might say. And I might dye it white while at it.

Sigh… I should really stop cramming stuff to study last minute… Apparently last minute Physics-studying does weird things to your brain…

But I still can’t stop imagining myself in a small ponytail, regardless of how stupid I’ll look…

P/S: This post is totally random rubbish. I have no idea why the hell am I even writing it lol. Blah maybe I need some time off. Touhou + Red Bull sounds pretty good to me >:3

P/P/S: I was serious about the ponytail.

Stubbornness on a whole new level!

OK, I’m mentally worn out now, so I’ll try to keep this post short.

ONEE-CHAN IS UNGODLY STUBBORN! >:3

Seriously, this is the first time I’ve felt so tired in months. After 2 hours (TWO HOURS) of endless persuasion, I FINALLY managed to persuade Onee-chan to…. Accept 80 bucks >.:3), please do drop me an email/SMS. I bet that no one else is THAT stubborn >=P

Oh and we finally managed to reach an agreement, but lol, I’m feeling damn guilty now for even suggesting it. I really feel like drowning in a pool of LCL right now…. T.T

(P/S: Onee-chan if you comment here about apologizing/being guilty, I’m gonna smack you on the head the next time we meet again >:3

The road not taken

I never thought that the day I would be so challenged about my decision to pursue a major in Nanotechnology would come.

Before this, I had always thought that my future would lie within Nanotechnology – you know, a brand new major that no one’s had before, with my batch being possibly the first batch ever to graduate with such a degree in MALAYSIA? I had confidently told my parents, my peers and myself that no matter what happened, I would be pursuing Nanotechnology.

But what’s happened to that streak of confidence now? With my current results (Ok ok, I know they’re not the cream of the class or anything, but hey, at least they’re not that horrible, right?) I don’t think it’ll be much of a problem if I continue to pursue Nanotechnology. A challenge, maybe, but an impossible feat? Definitely not.

If so, what’s keeping me from moving to Cyberjaya to pursue Nanotechnology? They’ve got better Internet, better lecturers and better facilities there right?

I’ll be blunt with you – I like this place. MMU Melaka. EMiNA Melaka. SPB. Even IXORA – there’s nothing here I can find fault with (except IXORA’s crappy Internet, but we’ll just ignore that for the time being shall we? ^^;;). The food here is awesome. The clubs here are beyond awesome. And the people, the many friends I’ve met here, they’re way beyond awesome. In a sense, you could say that I’ve grown attached to this place.

So what lies in store for me here? A double major perhaps, in both Robotics and Telecommunications? I’ve just consulted my Academic Advisor, and she said it WAS possible to do so, though she’s not sure if I’m able to handle it (and frankly speaking, I don’t know if I’ll be able to handle it either, with my freelancing and stuff). However, if I really chose to do so, I would be able to pursue both majors in the same university, the one I’ve grown way too attached to – MMU Melaka.

Distance – I’ve always hated that word. It’s something that’s been haunting me for my entire life. I had to move from my hometown in Ipoh just because my dad got a job in KL. After that, I had to move from KL to Seremban just because my dad got transferred. I broke up with my ex because I didn’t want to see her suffer when I moved to Melaka to pursue my degree. And right now, I’m stuck between two choices – to either pursue Nanotechnology in a place I know I won’t like much, or to stay here and pursue a major I know I won’t like as much.

So the question is, should I move to Cyberjaya and regret missing all the fun and people here in Melaka, or stay here in Melaka and regret my missed degree in Cyberjaya?
