~~ Random Pictures~~

First of all, i would like to apologize to all of my friends who concerned about my blog. I feel really sorry about did not update my blog regularly. Please allow me to explain the reasons. I was busy for last semester and worked with a lot of my studies and projects. I just concluded my busy winter semester, and enjoyed my one week break, actually it was an uneventful week. I did nothing on that one week break....

Sometime, i feel like nothing special event to blog with, so i try to slow down a little bit... hehe... Recently, same as usual, busy with my studies and i'm taking two classes in this spring semester. Actually i do not have any special stuffs to blog in this post, so what i'm going to do is, i will try to put some random pictures which i took in last few months:

Here we go for some of my random pictures that i found in my pc:

Oh yeah, i found some cool pictures from my pc. Look!! it's a Toyota Trueno --AE86--. I'm sure you guys watched the movie Initial D before. Actually the Initial D movie is based on the Japanese Initial D mange and anime series. In this movie, the pop singer-- Jay Chou-- acts as Takumi Fujiwara. I think you guys are very impressed of the cars and the drifting skills in that movie, right? And last year, i watched the movie, The fast the furious -- Tokyo drift--. It was a cool movie. I was impressed on the drifting skill in the movie, Cool...

I never thought that i will picture with the Toyota Trueno AE86. But few months ago, I saw the car that people keep talking in that movie-- Initial D-- was in front of me. Oh my god, unbelievable!!! I even drive that car, it was awesome!! But i can't drift because i don't have that kind of skill. The reason why i can drive it, it's because the car is owned by one of my friends. He bought it from a HongKong guy, it costs USD4,000. Actually for me, i will never buy a car that more than 20 years. It's cool car, but you have to spend a lot of money to maintain it.

Here is what he got the license plate for his Car. Michigan also have one AE 86, not only in Japan. He customized his license plate as AE 86.
Is that looked familiar with you? Yeah, it's a sticker that exactly copy from the movie Initial D.
Oh yeah, Picture with Toyota Trueno -- AR E86--
Are those poses looked familiar? Haha... actually we tried to pose like Jay Chou in that movie. Pretty cool huh??
Does it looked familiar? Hehe...

Here are another group of pictures that found in my pc, i randomly post it because i do not have any particular stuffs to blog with.

This picture is from HooiSin, she took it at her sister's engagement day. Personally, i love this picture because it looked like picture it at studio. Oh yeah, i miss you so much, but i think we can meet pretty soon, so be more patient... I still have one month to go (i will be in Malaysia for vacation this coming summer)... Hurray!!
Oh my God!! who is this little cutie? Is she looked cute?? Who is she actually? Oh yeah, she is my niece -- Amanda Lee-- at Singapore. Time flies, before i came United States, she was still in her mom's tummy, but now she is already one year plus. My mom told me that she is now even can walk. Oh my God, unbelievable the time goes so fast. I think she doesn't she has one uncle in United States, because we haven't meet each other before. Haha.... we will meet next month, i cant wait to pinch her chubby face...

Look!!! Here are some pictures of Amanda Lee:

She is so cute...
Oh my god, she got her front teeth... hehe...
She is growing up...

Due to exchange rate and religion problem, the percentage of Malaysian visit United States become less and less. After September 11, it become harder for applying visa to visit United States, even the percentage of Malaysian students drop less than before. In the small percentage of Malaysian in Michigan, United States, I met two Malaysian girls -Linly & Elena- in Ann Arbor recently. I was surprised when they told me that they are from Malaysia. Actually we met each other at party, then we start to hang out sometime.

Actually i don't really know about this two girls, we only hang out some of the time. Both of them are exchange student from Malaysia, they participated a program and stay with American's family and work as a babysitter.

After hanging out with this two girls, i found that they are a really good friend to hang out with. Like Linly, she is a very talkative girls and when we start to chat, she can talks for non-stop. Maybe both of us have somethings in common, so we usually chat through MSN. Elena, a good friend to hang out too. I was so surprised when she told me her major, guess what, she is a law major, amazing!!! I can't believe i have a friend majoring in law.

Here are some of the words to my new Malaysian Friends:

I'm so glad meet both of you, as least we can share something in common.

Words to Elena: "You feel lost, because you are lack of confidence, i know you really want to back to your law major, but you're worrying that you'll fail the class. Elena, just go ahead, make up your mind and further your law major, once a day you'll success and find your professional career path."

Words to Linly: "I know you have plenty of dreams and planning, just to whatever you want to do or to be to achieve your final goal. You always tell me that you really don't what you are doing, actually from the day you participate in this program, you should know what is the path looks like, in this world, there always gain something and lost the other things, so just try to learn how to enjoy but no to complain."

I'm saying all this because i want to let you guys know my philosophy -- "Nothing is impossible, keep your hard work persistence and constantly, for sure you will success in one day"--. So Linly, i hope you can fulfill your travel dream in United States very soon, and Elena, i also hope you can start your professional career path in the near future. Good luck to my new friends -- Linly and Elena-- :) Stay Cool and Funcky:)

Here are some pictures that were taken with Elena and Linly at downtown Ann Arbor -- Sweetwatercafe--

Summer is coming and the weather here is so "Hot", it almost same as Malaysia. After one more month, i will be in Malaysia for vacation, i really can't wait that day coming. I really need a break to "recharge" myself after one year struggle.

Also, Simon and Maggie will officially move to New York City, so they will be missing in Michigan. Lee's family will not come with us to Malaysia, and they will visit Greece in this coming August.
