It's now 1.46 am and my first class is due to start tomorrow at 10. Nice! Thinking myself as a sleepyhead, it's almost certainly better off for me to sign up for later classes. More time to sleep, and yet I'm sprawling but these blinking eyes can't simply close just yet. Not yet!
The break was good, spent a good vacation over in New York and Boston. Nothing much to tell, it was too snowy for good photos. But I guess, being a guy from Malaysia, snow photos are exotic, somewhat. Mctyeire was quite a while, nobody's around except a couple of guys from the Chinese Hall and Chie just across my room. Was thinking of visiting Sam in Maryland, but I guess the thick snow makes it hard with flight delays and all. Plus, I don't really have the money for spending spree. Considering I need to get insurance for my bike as well really soon.
I've actually done some thinking. Some thinking of which bothers me, significantly. A thought of where am I going to end up next year. I wish I could still stay in Mctyeire. But I definitely don't want to sign up for the Meal Plan and all. Why can't I just stay in Mctyeire and not take the darn Meal Plan. Alternative, McGill? Tolman? Or Chaffin? Of course, my deep down I would like to stay here, but having extra cash actually is fairly sweet too.どうしようか？Unless of course, I'm one of them RA's, but I was wondering if I could get that post here? Why does Mctyeire needs only 3 RAs??? WHY WHY WHY?
Argh, forget it, so anyhow, the ranking goes:
1)Mctyeire
2)McGill
3)Tolman
4)Chaffin
MCTYEIRE! For god's sake, please take meal plan off your cost! おねがいします！

Some parts of the world (visual)
Ever sit down one day with tea and crackers and ponder on what's going on in some parts of the world out there? Well, ever wonder if some people somewhere else is able to enjoy such tranquility and good time that we're having? Ever wonder what is it like to live in such situation where crime and danger haunts us every single day?
Here's a clip that would make you grateful of what you're having right now.
I was disgusted on how people treat each other wherever this incident took place. I'm not a big fan of slicing people right in the public, or how uncivilized they are despite modernization that SHOULD nurture CIVILIZATION in their mindset. I don't know what the person had done, but I sure know that such brutal head-tapering isn't in my to do list if I'm angry of something. There are limits to everything. I'm pretty sure that my religion is the same as the Indonesians, but I do not recall any code that makes such act permissible. Funny how dangerous lust and revenge works eh? Of course, we are mere humans, and we're born with lust and revenge, but it is up to us on how we contain them. Something worth thinking about, i guess....

Rockbanging with Sogabe 先生
Mctyiere is getting somewhat less thrilling these days. Probably because everyone was busy minding their own business. Or, it just plain boring on Friday nights that I would prefer to go out somewhere else. Hurm, Japanese Hall should never be boring, i dont know, probably the new members aren't used to the 'Japanese Hall spirit" yet. There's less "spark" going on in the hall. We used to have sp much fun despite how boring the environment is. At least to me. Let's just give it some time yeah? :-(
もういいか？
So, last Thursdays, we had 曽我部先生 as our Japanese Guess. She's a really chill person despite how serious she could be in class sometimes. 新しい車が買ったそうです. In a nutshell, rockband came into conversation right after dinner, which somehow thrilled our beloved 曽我部先生. So, we kinda lured her into joining us rockbanging after dinner. In a snap, Harrison-san already made his way upstairs to set up the tools. And we had 曽我部先生 as the drummer. It was so much fun to have her around with the us that particular night. Upon finishing, she would give us the look the same look that she used to do in class after kanji quiz, uttering "あ、おもしろい", plain feelingless. Haha. Typical 曽我部先生, but hey, we still love her!
So, i guess here's the update till now. Of course, I will keep writing on interesting stuffs soon :p

New faces in Mctyiere :p
It's a ground breaking dinner we're having tonight, with exceptions that, we're having new faces in the Japanese Hall. Well, new year, new Fall, new members and of course, I'm anticipating new environment! :p
So, I took the motorcycle test (permit) last 2 weeks or so, just to find out that I failed, shockingly, not once, but rather twice. So last Friday, I went ahead and took my chances, again, and Alhamdullilah, I've passed, FINALLY! Hehe, suki suki. Looking forward to purchase a bike really really soon. Maybe a Yamaha or Ducati. Or maybe a Honda CBR. Should i get 2 bikes, eg: a FZ6 and a R6. Sell off the R6 and keep the FZ6 for work commute? Hm... Sounds like a plan, but I need at least 10k USD just to be able to do so, and i mean, AT LEAST! ARGHH, It's ok's alright, money is everywhere. Business man business, or rather, purchase stock markets! Hehe
Credit to Hilmi and Azrin for their kinds effort, teaching me a few stuffs on stock markets. I've finally a registered user of sharetrade and Etrade. Getting ready for some real stock market business! Sounds fun, argh, can't wait. Hopefully, I'll learn a lot of stuffs from this, maybe to the extend of making a living? Hihi
I remembered a quote "9/10 of the rezeki (earnings) comes from trading". Heck yeah, I think so too. Rarely I see an engineer making millions by the age of 30, 0r even 40. I really really think that by doing business, we've automatically place ourselves in a fun-gambling type environment, and simultaneously, breaking the barrier of our source of income! Insyaalah, I will be a great businessman one day,
ONE DAY! がんばります！

Today
It's been almost a week now that I'm here in Vanderbilt after a not-so-long home trip. Unfortunately today, our car broke down, again.. Haha. Apparently the air-conditioner was left on while the engine is ignited, which probably the main reason the alternator broke. Insufficient lub is another supporting factor. I think.... It's alright, I'm glad that we managed to pull back into the parking space, (50% of the car) before it actually broke down. Somehow my language sucks this week, probably I haven't been speaking English for quite a while during the summer. But, we'll fix that soon. Kih3
Now that I've manage to completely settle in my new room, I get to hang out with the rest of the gang today. Well, I still miss the previous Japanese Hall members, probably because I'm the only one left now. We have a set of new Japanese members now, making me a senpai. Hihi, a senpai with poor Japanese skills(日本語は上手じゃないです). We need to fix this one too, Syaf.. Hihi.. It's not 4.16am in the morning and I'm waiting my dad to get off work... Come home quickly pa, I've got stories to tell. :p

Spare time for some thoughts
It's been almost a month and a half now ever since I first arrived home from Vanderbilt. I was fishing this morning, when my mom called and asked if I would like to drop by at her workplace. They have a bit of a mini-convoy exhibition of big bikes over there. Of course, I can't resist such temptation. :p
So, there is one FZ1 that I laid my eyes on. It's sexy, and it's nasty. It's a little monster that according to the owner, could be tamed in a short amount of time. So, we had a little chit chat over the bike, he seemed a little surprised that I know Fazer quite well, at least that's what he said to me. Haha. So, that guy spent well 70,000 on that ride. Inside, I thought he must have a pretty darn well-paid job to be able to afford that thing as soon as I learned that it had been purchased here in Malaysia.
How I wished I could afford one of this. But something came out to my mind, I knew countless people who managed to secure PhD credentials, but most of them, live solely on constant paychecks, and everyday save a bit of money to spend on something nice every once in a while. There is nothing wrong to this regulation, but I think such method limits your potential in life. There are many opportunities that are waiting to be discovered out there, and they lie all over the world. If combined, there will be enough supply of things for everybody and there will be unlimited funds of cash waiting for you everyday. Owh, and I just love how uncertainties lead my life.
Another random subject of the day
Honestly, I don't care about the locals, whether you chinese, indian or malays as Malaysia should rise as 1 nationality. In order to reach exponential improvement, changes should be made, and a nation must fall to rise. The citizens must be freed from the subsidy-mentality. Some should fall so that others could rise, and the process is ongoing. Bottomline, there should be no uneven excuses. Period.
