It seems like I'm having a weird month of April, never expect that so many things happened in just 2 weeks time, or perhaps almost 3 weeks. Eventually, I've 2 post that I never manage to post it up after considering the outcome that I might get at the end of the day.hehe....Anyway, just forget about it, bad experiences are meant to be forgotten. Ok, lets start off with what happened ever since my very last post which dated back by...erm 21st march??wah, it's almost a month. Anyway, end of last month was the month which I can describe as the time when we mark "it's almost end of the semester and your another year in Uni life", as expected, a lot of events are organised specially to mark the 'time'. You can expect to have lots of Dinners to attend to. It's the time to say farewell to the final year students as well as they will be graduating soon. The final week of March alone, I've attended 2 dinners, where one of it cost me freaking 50 bucks and another one is FOC( free-of-charge ).
Let me starts off with the FOC Dinner organised specially for the C-DEX( which stands for 'Career and Self-Development EXpo') OC(Organising Committee). I'm one of the organisers for the Dinner so I rather don't want to justify of what my team and I have done. let others make their judgements. Overall, we have put a lot of hard work in it as we only start to plan it 3 weeks before the dinner. For the first time also, I saw caterer put on roast Lamb in their buffet menu, and I don't mean they roast it before hand. But they roast 'Satu ekor' lamb on the spot. I was like ..going huh?! when I saw the menu... but that is the first time that I saw people eventually roast a lamb on the spot.haha...The dinner concept was actually free and easy as we want to make the event casual so that people can mingled around with the others( except for the VIP lah). The whole event was smooth but just one thing that I wasn't satisfy of...that is the speech by our VIP. I think that will be the worst speech ever given by a VIP that caused everyone to lost their mood when he gave the speech. I don't wanna disclose who is our VIP as the name VIP implies that the person been invited is one of the powerful guy in the faculty.erm...actually, he is not suppose to be the one giving the speech but rather another higher post person to give the speech but it turns out that the VVIP cannot turn up for the event, so he is automatically the second in line to give out the speech. It turns out more than 80% of his speech saying bad about the events that we were organising. blablabla about this and that...Honestly speaking, I hate people who never look themselves in the mirror and try to justify others without judging himself. if like a little bit of the speech is about our weaknesses then, that one is acceptable. but if the almost all the speech given is mencemuh then, it's really stupid. There are always weaknesses if you organize something for the first time. As a professional Engineer of him, he should know that, there are always weakness in something, We will never be perfect but we try our best towards it. Nobody is perfect. hmm...very disappointed with that only. look at the roast lamb... not the girls...duh
Ok, move on to the 2nd dinner that i paid 50 bucks on. Some call that money is the protection fee for you to stay college, some say you pay to get those merits...haha. Guess what, the event itself is good, congrats to the organizer in putting a great event...i specially like the presentation, very creative that it looks like a show from the tv...bravo...the only thing I wasn't impressed is the food. Tell me, what you will you expect if you were to pay RM50 buffet dinner? for me, it's simple, it is either eat till you drop or get to eat some very rare stuffs which you won't normally get in mamak stall or anything similar. It turns out that, the food served is unexpected. None of the 'syarat' that I mentioned earlier is fulfilled. I was so disappointed and furthermore annoyed when one of the OC sitting with me told me that the actual cost of the menu per head is RM75 bucks...I just reply...oh!...but at the back of my mind, I was yer??!...as if..... Ok, the Food were served but it's not one by one like what happened normally in the Chinese Restaurant, but they put all the '8-course' meal together on a big "steamboat' plate. with 8 compartments and 8 different food. When the waiter opened it, I was like...oh my gosh!..RM50 bucks for that???10 person(mind you...it's all guys, so the appetite of guys is much larger than female...) sharing those lauk? I thought the hotel is going to refill them, but no...so stingy. The Soup, everyone is entitled only to a small bowl of it...so pathetic, as if we are those people staying in jails. Then the fried Rice, this is even worse...each one of us is served and the waiter only gave us 3 spoons of fried rice...OMG!!!!!!!!!!!what is that???Rm5 for 3 spoons of rice?? I would rather go to the Sushi buffet at One Utama which cost only Rm55...OMG...nasib baik the waiter came back to ask us whether we want to refill, then he gave me 3 spoons again, but the waiter was good, he asked me whether I want more or not, I just say yes...then he add up another 2 spoons =____="
OMG, we are like banduan kah?? the dessert they give is mango pudding...it's a small portion...darn....spoil the event only. One of the bad things happened is, they don't respect the Indians at all, 2 of the 8 course is beef...then, at the end of the day, the Indian eat less than us, they ate few slices of chicken meat and vegetables only...pity them pay rm50 for something that some of the food they cannot eat. It was a disrespect, but the Indians just berdiam diri because they don't want to spoil the event. Imagine if Pork was served, then, those who serve could face jail sentence but how about this case....no wonder the election result is like that.
The food served is rather not enough that some of my friends opt to go out to the Coffee House of the Hotel and buy a slice of cheese cake which cost around rm5... At the end of the day, most of my chinese friends were telling each other that, it's the most pathetic rm50 meal ever...at least shark fin or abalone is served mah...or the lauk mesti banyak...stupid. Equatorial Hotel just give me bad impression. or maybe it's not their fault, the meal might cost only Rm20 or Rm30 bucks...then the rest of the money is used to belanja on all the invited guests...which I think around 10 tables...10x10=100 people...darn! click on the image to see the menu for the dinner
A bowl of corn soup...
this is how the 3 tablespoons of rice looks like.....
mango pudding..
Then, another thing that happened lately is decision making of whether to stay in college or staying outside. After thinking long and influence by most of my chinese course mates, I've decided to move out of college. I consider it as a bold decision that I've made to date. I've a principle now that is once I've made the decision, I shall not regret about it. And till now, I try not to think it's a bad idea to stay out of college. I will update more on the house and the surrounding once I've move in soon. There are few reasons to why I don't want to stay college.
1.) The management
2.) The College itself
3.) The worst person ever to be a room mate.
4.) etc....etc
Ok, finally, one semester is almost to the end and I'm here now in the midst of the exam weeks. My first paper was on 7th of April which is my German paper...little did I understand the passage that was on the paper, all I can do is to guess the content from some familiar words learnt. Haha, then thermofluid and Eng. Maths II papers on the 8th, thermofluid paper was ok but Maths II paper...erm, I can only hope that I get a pass for the paper. I cannot finish...darn...then Engineering Drawing and Ethnic Relations paper on the 10th...One question that still popped up from my mind is why is it necessary to have an exam on Engineering Drawing? for your information, we draw with our hand, not computer generated. What they ask us to draw is too much to be drawn in 2 hours time.What quality of drawing can you expect to have if you are to draw under pressure of time. I think it should be replaced with assignments where the quality of the drawing will be great and better product of drawing could be yield. haha...I did not finish my drawing though...and most of my course mates cannot finish as well....It was tough. again, I can only hope for a pass in the exam.
So last week, I sat for 5 papers which drives me a bit insane. I did lots of stuffs to distress, among them is eat and eat and eat...then watch lots of Movies...gone to the nearby TGV cinema twice and ended up watching
Ah Long Pte. Limited
( it was a totally hilarious movie that tickle to your bones. It's a damn funny story if you can understand Hokkien...)
The 3 Kingdoms
( this a nice movie to watch as well, it's a movie set during the 3 kingdom that rules over china before Shi Huang ti times...it's a nice war epic)
some other people, opt to release their stress through DOTA-ing...or CS-ing....
Last week was a stressful week, and finally I realize that it's not a good thing to packed most of the exam papers together and ended up last few papers has the schedule so 'alang2x'..ended up the few days after the exam was so bored...and you know how teruk it is just to wait....
