Which body part runs but doesn't move?

Have you figured it out? If you said the nose, you're right!

My nose was especially hard working today, since it was running all the way from morning till night. Thanks to you (my nose), my day was absolutely awful. How awful?

(I will now refer "you" as my nose)

Well first of all, everytime you leaked, I had to find some way to either stop it or be rid of it. Everytime I swallow your "saliva", my stomach yells: "Can you stop it already? Its disgusting and I'm full here!!" Yet, you continue to leak at his (my stomach) expense.

(I will now refer "him" as my stomach)

To ease him, I had to constantly visit the toilet so you could leak all you want. But just when I thought you were done, but you coughed and leaked again!! I feel so sorry to deposit your saliva to him again. But I promise I will feed him good food later during break time.

I feel like scolding you, beating you, or even chopping you into half!! But I know all of those wouldn't change the fact that I need you.

I knew I couldn't always visit the lavatory just for you, so everytime I visited the toilet, I took a few pieces of tissue paper and kept it in my bag. Then, whenever you leaked, I would use them to wipe your saliva away.

Unfortunately, you leaked so much, that I had used up all the tissue paper that I had stored previously. Curse you!! On the other hand, luck was on my side since my maths lecturer always takes a 5-minutes break during his lecture. I seized the opportunity and went straight to the toilet. This time, I stored more tissue paper.

After the lecture, I moved on to the next lecture but the lecturer wasn't there yet. Again, I took a quick visit to the toilet, deposited all your saliva, and took even more tissue for the hour-long lecture.

During the lecture, I had to sit at least 2 metres away from the nearest person to prevent the bacteria in your saliva from spreading. In addition, I had to hold back when you attempted to cough, which caused your saliva to yet again flow to him. To ease him temporarily, I constantly drank the warm water I filled from the water dispenser.

Surely enough, I dashed to the cafeteria right after the lecture to get some good food for him. The first thing that came to mind was the fresh hot noodle soup. I wanted the the noodles to be 100% bihun. But I only saw either 100% yellow noodle or 50/50.

However, due to a misunderstanding between the caterer and the person before me, I got the 100% bihun soup!! At that moment, I felt as if God had gave me his blessing! He said: "Thanks God!!" (or Whoever out there)

After lunch, my eyes were complaining for some rest. "They" even took some drastic actions such as trying to close shop during lecture!! I told them that they will have the chance later. "But for now", I plead, "please don't do this to me..." Luckily, they were quite understanding and stayed open for the rest of the lecture.

(I will now refer "them" as my eyes)

*Lecture ended*

Of course, I don't make empty promises. I set out to find a strategic place to rest. What do I mean by strategic? Other than being away from people, it had to be near a toilet as you could leak anytime. Furthermore, it had to be near my next lab session so I could maximise resting time and not be late for lab.

Sounds complicated? Not really...


The lab was just above where I slept.

I wanted to make sure that your saliva wouldn't leak out when I napped so I took out a piece of tissue paper from my stash and stuffed it into both your nostrils.

To my surprise, you soaked the whole tissue with your saliva within 10minutes!! I had no choice but to change the tissue every 10minutes. On the other hand, the location was so strategic that I could visit the toilet and fill my bottle before arriving at the lab.

As the lab session commences, while everyone was quietly doing the diagnostics test, you just couldn't resist breaking the silence, can you?? You had to leak and cough during the pin-drop silence, huh?! If I had a replacement, I would've thrown you away ages ago!! Unfortunately, I don't. So I'll have to bear all these torments that you present to me.

*after lab ended and reached home*

Because of you, my body was weak and vulnerable. Therefore, I couldn't attend the musical that my mum had planned weeks ago. As a result, she throws all her nagging, complaining and not forgetting, scolding at me. Furthermore, it happened to be quite a spectacular musical from what I've heard.

After they had left the house, I found a cozy spot on the sofa and slept. After I woke up, it was only 8pm. So I watched the cantonese drama which my sister had recorded preciously.

Eventually, I came across a few touching scenes. Remember them? (my eyes) Their shop suddenly flooded and leaked all over my face!! Ever heard of 'monkey see, monkey do'? You saw them leaking and you started leaking yourself!!

Grr... I really couldn't bear you anymore!! I didn't want to do this, but I have no choice.

I searched high and low, up and down, inside and even outside!! Yet, I couldn't find "it". With "it", I can put an end to you and your miserable marathon!!

When my family came back at around 12am, my father pointed out the location of "it". I quickly grabbed "it" and used "it" immediately!!

Finally, I felt as if a heavy rain had stopped and the sun had come out marking the start of a new, healthy day!! =D



I know you've been wondering... What is "it"?

"It" is a pill that says 'The finish line'.

In case anyone was wondering, it is called Clarityne.

Learning to live is living to learn.

All living creatures were born with a survival instinct and humans are no different. Ever since we were born, we were taught by our parents how to stay alive.

So we've learnt how to live. But what is our purpose of living? To me, it is to learn.

And so, my journey of self-discovery continues with my latest mission:

*Drumrolls*

To learn Japanese!!

Many of you would wonder, why on earth would I take, of all languages, Japanese?!

Well, through all these years of reading and watching japanese anime/manga, I've taken interest to knowing what I was hearing or listening rather than just looking at the pictures or reading the subtitles.

Not just that, but one of the Japanese writing system, kanji, actually originated from China's han writing. That's why its easier for me to learn because some characters look and mean the same.



I've registered myself at the ICLS Damansara School yesterday (Monday) and at that time, it was about to rain when I left my house. I cycled as fast as my bicycle could take me, but at some point, I had to carry my bicycle to cross the pedestrian bridge. (to and fro!!)

After registering, it started to drizzle!! So I pushed my "adrenaline button" for turbo mode and reached home just in the nick of time!!



Boy, wasn't that a tiring day?

So that was why I slept in 2 out of 3 of my morning lectures today. =p

Its like chicken pox!

Do you still remember the first and last time you had chicken pox?
Well I was so little that time that I don't remember =/

But the thing is, chicken pox only comes once in a lifetime. So you better hope you had them when you were little coz it sucks to have chicken pox now or when you're older. However, once you've had chicken pox before, you won't get it again for this lifetime.

On the other hand, I would consider this event similar to chicken pox!
If it hits you early, it won't happen ever again in the future.
But what is it?

Road accidents!

Yes, if you're thinking I had a road accident, you're right! =)

It was after tiring day of fun and leisure at the Orientation Bash held in Monash University and continued at Sunway Lagoon. After dinner at Sunway Pyramid, I was on my way to One Utama to fetch Ken Chong and Chung Kent to my house.

Just like every Saturday night, the traffic conditions towards One Utama from the LDP is always congested. Consequently, I got caught in the jam too. While moving at a snail's pace towards OU, I felt a little thirsty. While my car was still moving, I just took my eye off the road for one second to get water and BANG! BIG mistake!!

My car My mum's car just hit a Myvi from the rear!!

The fella came out of his car and... No, he didn't scold/curse/kick me. Instead, he asked me to stop on the left side of the road. When both cars were there, though still on the highway, he came out to check the damage. I did the same.

It turns out that my mum's car was more damaged compared to his!!

On his car, from what I can see, There were small dents on the bumper and a small bent on the boot.

On the other hand, my mum's car's right headlight was broken, the bumper completely dented inwards and the hood was bent upwards as well.

After a more thorough speculation and estimation by the Perodua representative, my car's repairs would cost doubled of his! In the end, my father came and agreed to pay for all his repairs without lodging a police report. The police would only make things more troublesome. Luckily, he also wanted to make things simple and go on with his life.

During my Form 5 years, I've heard numerous stories of friends having accidents during their probationary driving period. Yet, they never seem to get anymore after they've gotten their competent driver's license. That is why I relate this event to chicken pox.

After this accident during my probationary period, I hope that accidents would stay far, far away from me once I pass my competent license. =D
