Yeap, that's HIM!

Guess who showed up at PennState last night? It's the revered man whom I believe has inspired and is still inspiring millions of people out there. It's none other than Aron Ralston. Does that ring a bell? Well, it's the dude who inspired the production of the movie 127 hours. Owh yeah, this is the man who amputated his hand in order to free himself from a dislodged boulder that trapped him for five days and seven hours at the Blue John Canyon. I was so glad that he could share his experience with us and as he recounted the life-changing incident that happened to him nine years ago, he mentioned about how it changed his whole perspective about himself, his life and about the things that matter to him the most. And yet, he still continues his passion for outdoor activities without any trepidation or fear. He's a true hero! 

p/s: He's so cute, and funny and he's also an all-rounder. He graduated from Carnegie Mellon with a degree in mechanical engineer and French and a minor in piano! How cool is that. 

                        

Random Post.

Finally, I have the time to update my blog again. This is so cool, I just love writing stuffs a.k.a crapping in my blog but I can hardly find time to do so nowadays. Nevertheless, I don't really have much to say even though I actually do have a lot things in my mind right now. If I start writing 'em all down, I'll be pretty much synonymous to an unstoppable train. So, I'm just going to post some random pictures, making 'em short and simple.

Malaysian Night was amazing, it was pretty successful and I was so proud to be a part of the team. We did a great job, and most of all, we had so much fun along the way. I was in one of the performance team for the night :)

 

Next up are some of the pictures from Yellowcard's concert, organized by SPA Late Night which was held just few weeks back. This was my first ever concert in the States, and I waited in the queue for almost 3 hours but guess what? It was free of charge and I was at the front row all the way and even managed to hug the Violinist. I totallyyyyyyy ENJOYED it, it was definitely worthwhile. 

Amid all the workload, I have been trying to improve on my culinary skills, but I have no idea if I'm making any progress. 

This curry turned out to be too spicy :/ 

but hey, I love my food to be colorful, and HEALTHY!

During Spring break, I have been succumbing to my online shopping addiction, and as a repercussion, I am at the verge of going broke right now. Need to save moneyyyyy and watch my expenses so I can survive until JPA banks in at the end of the month. Whatever it is, I'm totally loving my new Abbey Dawn shoes :)

Well, I think that is all for now. Life's just pretty busy at the moment, there's always something to do. When one is done, another comes up but, to be frank, I'm somewhat loving this life. I love being busy. No, I ain't a weirdo. Perhaps it's just that the state of having nothing to do can drive me CRAZY, so I pretty much enjoy keeping myself occupied most of the time. Take care, y'all.

Take a moment to pray and be thankful for the amazing life that you have being blessed and surrounded by good family and friends, good health, prosperity, shelter, food and most importanly, LOVE. Pray for yourself, and also for those unfortunate people out there who are in need of help, hope and strength to make it through. Have a nice week!

Happy 2012!

Happy 2012, people! I am turning 21 this year, so I completely changed the template and layout of my blog so that it looks more professional. I know, my previous layout looked all dark, childish and immature at the same time, but I was too lazy to change it until last night. Finally took the initiative to do so. What you think? Anyway, it's a new year, a new beginning, but I'm not really excited right now simply because it's Saturday and my classes are starting on Monday! It's going to be start of a new sem here in Pennstate, and I can foresee an extremely hectic schedules and routines judging from my heavy subjects, upcoming Malaysian Night, Thon and etc. Nevertheless, I reckon it won't be too bad. I've survived worse during foundation year in Intec. Anyway, I don't really have much to say, so I am just going to sum up my first five months here in the land of opportunity. Well, life here is pretty good and exciting. The only thing that I loathe is the fact that I have to drag myself out of the bed everyone morning, and do the household chores all by myself. I have to cook on my own, do my groceries, do my own laundry and on top of all these, I have to go to classes and come back and study. Gosh, I am a complain freak. I am a student, what else should I be doing right? Seriously, now I truly understand how hard was it for my mum to balance between her work, and us. Too many sacrifices, but most of the time, they would go unnoticed or taken for granted. It's not an easy thing, so appreciate your mum! :) apart from that, studies ain't too bad, I managed to attain fairly good grades and a high GPA. I am not implying that it is easy to get good results here, I have to work hard to ace my exams for sure. I am sort of accusstomed to the edu system here, and I can say that it's not easy to excel, but it's also not hard to do so. Perhaps because I'm enrolled in one of the top public research school in the States which is known as a party school and ironically, is also considered to be one of America's Public Ive League at the same time. Balanced much? I guess so. Next up, the people here are pretty warm and nice especially the staffs and the international students. Even the people that you meet in the elevator, at the bus stand or even the street can be freaking sweet and helpful. Nevertheless, I stil miss my friends back home, and if you guys are reading this right now, listen up, YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST! Enough said about that. Last but not least, the places that I have been to are pretty coool. Actually, I have been to only a few places which includes Niagara Falls, Philadelphia, New Jersey, Princeton, Columbia and almost all the attractions and tourist spots in New York City. Niagara Falls is so BEAUTIFUL, especially at night with all those lights and mist which will make you feel as if you're in another realm.

New York City

Philly is a lovely city with manyyyyyyy beautiful historical buildings while New York city is filled with skyscrapers. I couln't agree more when they say that New York is a city that never sleeps for I truly savored it's night life. Also, the streets and skyline of NY city are really beautiful, especially  at dusk and night when you can see lights emanating from tall buildings everywhereeeeee around you. Check out my pictures in Faceboookkk if you want to have a look at them.

Gosh, I can't even believe that I have been to all these places that I once merely dreamt of, and watched in movies or heard about. So, you know what I'm saying? You have no idea what the future holds in store for you, but you can always build your dreams and realize them with perseverance. Let's work harder this year and make more rooms for improvement to achieve our goals, and at the same time, cherish life like never before. Let's make 2012 another AWESOME year ahead! Good luck, everyone. LOTSA LOVE!!
