Hello non-existing people who don't read my blog anymore.<br />
<br />
Here, have a lovely picture. This was taken in October 2011 at <b>Eden Project</b>, in Cornwall, England. The Garden of Eden is a sort of a nature sanctuary where artificial climates are made by manipulating the humidity, moisture and sun penetration levels.<br />
<br />
It's pretty amazing. Designed by Nicholas Grimshaw. Amazeballs.<br />

Though it means that my last teenage year is gonna end in about ten months, I still think it's a good thing.<br />Meh. I'm writing from my iPod and it's half past three in the morning. I'm currently in Southampton and I'm in Pikky's room. She's on her laptop and I'm on the floor, unable to fall back to sleep. Woot.<br /><br />2010 was one hell of a year. I had my A2 exams. I received the results of my application for universities. I went to Singapore with my friends, first holiday with friends outside the country. I worked for the first time in Coffee Bean and that literally made my mind a plain mess. I flew to a foreign country, all alone and no one to look after me. I spent my last day of the year having the first alcohol drinking session of my life.<br /><br />I'm planning on starting Project 365 and properly finishing it by the end of the year. I've got to do this, I really do. I don't have time to blog anymore, or I *simply* don't have the mood to anymore. So I guess starting Project 365 would be a good replacement for the time being. :)<br /><br />I haven't been writing as well, my English is getting worse. Shit. HAHA.<br /><br />Meh. Apart from that, I think I'm ready to find someone again. I've been thinking about it and like, I've finally got a grasp of what I should look for and not miss the important thing. Feelings, for one, is something you can't neglect. Be it of your own or your other half, you must make sure you understand what you're feeling is real, regardless of why you think you're feeling that way. If that made any sense. :D<br /><br />I drank alcohol for the first time yesterday. Define: First time drinking alcohol. Drinking a full glass of liquor and finishing it.<br /><br />I finished four glasses of Breezers mixed with Smirnoff. Mind you, first time drinking and starting with vodka isn't really recommended. But I ended up just being tipsy and not even red. And so I've been told that I can hold my liquor, which I'm taking as a good thing! Means I can join my flatmates for drinking sessions now! Banzaaai!<br /><br />But I still hate the taste of beer. Disgusting. ._.<br /><br />WHAT SHOULD I DO NOW?<br /><br />2011. I expect a great deal outta you. Make me proud, beetch. :D<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span">I wish everyone a merry, jolly, <strong>Twenty Eleven</strong>! :)</span></div><br />Cheers, Arty. :)</div></div>Arthur Chiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07563544052995917695noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14479880.post-10825019055018924462010-12-01T06:56:00.004+08:002010-12-01T07:00:25.824+08:00snow<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKrt_du6AlVHbxX1aPtGublV5uuwaxcXL4AQwdFGVhTP0VuXjUTL7_oGDDUuG63naMHRNZ42JOSSVyj4wYJVY3eY1cSPVnR6tUQrtcT1idrkC97A4IpAqxUMIhAEjucE41zMXO/s1600/_DSC0157.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKrt_du6AlVHbxX1aPtGublV5uuwaxcXL4AQwdFGVhTP0VuXjUTL7_oGDDUuG63naMHRNZ42JOSSVyj4wYJVY3eY1cSPVnR6tUQrtcT1idrkC97A4IpAqxUMIhAEjucE41zMXO/s400/_DSC0157.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5545480815634160722" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">Snooooow.</div><div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizkVw3ZizUBZknHdGtoDeqjmdMWjRhdTMrDMXAnHMNvyWGXXujVbz47X6boCGv6y1wjr0eN0KsLaa2WALGXziiJ3sy6rU_-TKphu_9yY1Li1ZhehTz8Gcdumb4gp6pgjFzTYn9/s1600/_DSC0113.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 266px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizkVw3ZizUBZknHdGtoDeqjmdMWjRhdTMrDMXAnHMNvyWGXXujVbz47X6boCGv6y1wjr0eN0KsLaa2WALGXziiJ3sy6rU_-TKphu_9yY1Li1ZhehTz8Gcdumb4gp6pgjFzTYn9/s400/_DSC0113.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5545480770807576514" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">Snow on a leaf! :D</div></div><div><br /></div><div>It's not easy taking pictures of snow.

I really wonder <strong>what made me stop blogging.</strong> Maybe it was my <strong>A Levels exams</strong>? Or was it just simply because I lost my mood to blog or <s>all emotions whatsoever</s> (which really happened, btw, when I was working in Coffee Bean).<br /><br />Have you ever experienced a point in your life where you were just simply <strong>on autopilot</strong>? Now, what do I mean by <strong>autopilot</strong> is that you are so used to a very sequential, mundane routine that you have to follow everyday and thus not actually thinking when you're carrying out certain actions. It happened to me this year, and as hard as I may have tried, I just couldn't get my brain working at all.<br /><br />..which I think was the main reason why I stopped blogging. Maybe I couldn't cope with my exams, the pressure from my fellow classmates who are geniuses. Maybe I'm just not suited to be "<strong>the best of the best</strong>" which I have always imagined myself to be.<br /><br />I work hard. I strive. Most of the times I succeed, seldom I'd fail and often I'd be super upset over the failure.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><strong>But</strong></span></div><br /><blockquote>Now, I am a <strong>first year undergraduate</strong> at University of <strong>Bath</strong> studying <strong>Architecture</strong>.<br /><br />Now, I am a proud student of the esteemed <strong>Architecture and Civil Engineering</strong> department at University of Bath, for which, <strong>Architecture</strong> is ranked <strong>second</strong> in the whole of UK, <strong>second to Cambridge</strong>.<br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">[Source: <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/education/table/2010/jun/04/university-guide-architecture"><strong>ONE</strong></a> and <a href="http://www.thecompleteuniversityguide.co.uk/single.htm?ipg=8727"><strong>TWO</strong></a>]</span><br /><br />Now, I am spending most of my time, <strong>having fun designing</strong> in design studios. Something which I longed to do for a very long time now.<br /><br />Now, I am also able to score full marks for my Structures test just now, which consists of a mixture of <strong>Mathematics: Applied Mechanics</strong> and <strong>Physics</strong>.<br /><br />This is bliss. Pure bliss. :)</blockquote><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-CVXnv9kjLzAn6iwRAZY4_aDV0caIjcNsaEMXeQqAUjF-PV2WP7hUXVin-YZI8nMA46-ts-w6qzgnTNc5qVyFk8mdLvFZ-DCOPlYPCS3jDSSlqyIpQSjcFUb7taaec-JBhfdh/s1600/Arthur_Domo_PPBlog.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-CVXnv9kjLzAn6iwRAZY4_aDV0caIjcNsaEMXeQqAUjF-PV2WP7hUXVin-YZI8nMA46-ts-w6qzgnTNc5qVyFk8mdLvFZ-DCOPlYPCS3jDSSlqyIpQSjcFUb7taaec-JBhfdh/s400/Arthur_Domo_PPBlog.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5537628920789652866" /></a><br />Apart from that, I brought Domokun along with me to the UK. It accompanied me throughout the entire flight here. Which was <strong>freaking</strong> long, mind you. <strong>Six</strong> hours from KL to Dubai and then another <strong>seven</strong> hours from Dubai to London. After landing in a foreign country without your parents' supervision, I got extremely scared, but Domokun was there to comfort me. :)<br /><blockquote>My family was there with me at the airport that day. It was a night flight, so I kinda spent my entire Saturday out with my brother and mother. Then we just talked, and talked, and talked. Until it was time for me to go.<br /><br />It was good, I suppose. I've never seen my dad so teary-eyed before. I didn't know it would be this difficult, <strong>saying goodbye.</strong> They always say that <strong>I love you</strong> are the hardest words to say, but I beg to differ. When you're departing with your loved ones, try saying goodbye. It hurts, knowing that you'll probably not gonna be able to see them in person for the next three to four months, but for me, it's about <strong>ten</strong><br /><br />I couldn't stop crying. I looked back, and I saw them waving goodbye to me. I held back the sobs, the tears. As I passed through the gates to get to the departure lounge, I took out my phone and texted my mom. She was replying till I got on the plane. The entire time, I was busy taking tissues out of my bag pocket and wiping away the tears that just wouldn't stop. Annoying. Really annoying.<br /><br />Well, the flight was pleasant. I met a lady flying to Dubai. She's Malay but she looks really Chinese. She was wearing a scarf (tudung) but still looked really Chinese. She was nice. I was glad that I made a 33-year old friend. HAHA. But still, she was great company to sit beside with on a six hour flight. She was definitely better than a 3-year old baby kicking on my seat for the seven hour flight! D:<br /><br />Haha, damn. At least now I <strong>Skype</strong> with my family every Sunday. Because I spend a lot of my time in the studios. It keeps the homesickness at bay. :)<br /><br />I can't wait to go back to Malaysia in June next year. :)</blockquote><div style="text-align: center;">- - -</div><br />I met a lot of different people. My flatmates are amazing people. I learnt so much about the UK, like places they're from and the different slangs that they use. It's pretty much like the different dialects they have at different provinces in China. It's super cute when my Hull flatmate speaks HAHA. :)<br /><br />But yeah, the Malaysian society here, aka <strong>BAMSA</strong>, Bath Area Malaysian Singaporean Association is pretty cool. :D<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Got <strong>cute</strong> Malaysiaaaaaan. :)</span></div><br />Until next time, dear blog.

The place where we spent 50% of our lifetime (sleeping) on, is our beds. That very one <strong>comfy slab of a thing</strong> that lies on <strong>wooden planks</strong> (mine lies on wooden planks, cause my dad made my bed frame when I was younger) is the haven that most people retreat to at night.<br /><br />I would definitely miss the bedsheets that I have been using since I was a child. The one in the above picture had been with me since I was like, <strong>ten years old</strong>? I used to love the days when our (my brother and I) bedsheets were going to be washed. The smell of a freshly washed bedsheets <strong>really</strong> makes me feel like I'm in heaven. Maybe it's just a personal preference, maybe it's the same for everyone else, but I definitely love to sleep on a freshly washed bedsheet. :D<br /><br />There were also the days when I started going for late night rehearsals at <strong>Kuala Lumpur Performing Arts Centre</strong> back when I was in <strong>Theatre for Young People</strong> (T4YP) and various other KLPAC productions that I was in. When I got my driving license, my curfew got extended to 12AM and boy, how glad I was to have my bed to greet me back home!<br /><br />Being in a musical was really tough. Even though I wasn't the male lead or a supporting male actor, <strong>Kaki Blue</strong> was one of the musicals that I know of that has a strong ensemble to back the leads as well as perform most of the dances and songs as well. We are so cool that we could sing and dance at the same time! :P<br /><br />So yeah, when I reach home late at night, all I wanna do is take a nice warm bath and sleep on my bed. Once my head rests on my soft pillow, I fall instantly asleep.<br /><br />Oh, how I'll miss my bed. It accompanied me during my (many) sleepless nights, provided me the comfort that some children in other parts of the world might not be able to experience and how it wouldn't ever betray me. Like, stabbing me in the back. It can't stab me. It doesn't have hands. :D<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">- - -<br /></div><br />I'm starting this new series of posts to get my blogging mojo back.<br /><br />I'll slowly include people posts as time goes by, it's sort of a way to tell people how much they mean to me, as well as leaving them farewell notes before I leave for the UK on September 24th.<br /><br />cheerioseets, arty.Arthur Chiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07563544052995917695noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14479880.post-42581912570302552542010-08-19T21:13:00.000+08:002010-08-19T21:14:27.626+08:00really<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEincov1MSzSc7bkChihoed4cbz_grEOoWYnuNEEa9-Klb8EeUThdfeOcRfKj2B7OaNTdpBxWU_SR2jXnoUiYLU3fX4Ru5J9W0zzFsdH1HBO2BObbCdQPDOJ5FnFDiYv-ckxFafc/s1600/ucas_acceptance.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 37px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEincov1MSzSc7bkChihoed4cbz_grEOoWYnuNEEa9-Klb8EeUThdfeOcRfKj2B7OaNTdpBxWU_SR2jXnoUiYLU3fX4Ru5J9W0zzFsdH1HBO2BObbCdQPDOJ5FnFDiYv-ckxFafc/s400/ucas_acceptance.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5507108526537941778" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;">I am so happy.<br /></div><br />cheerioseets, arty.Arthur Chiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07563544052995917695noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14479880.post-4081247286598984422010-08-18T13:45:00.002+08:002010-08-18T14:00:33.824+08:00rawr<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKLtI1EaEFF_MROuNP9t5HP83YHADtK2VpiNVMs_utGaU83gmcmf8WlcPedt9jPcLpv12kGvDqZoOeSucRVOw2TKo26WdwcuO0Ml0unsQgsXF4SUDURZrwdaBLCiHkA53nYhpo/s1600/4eda450ceb5048eb869101bcb477ca05.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKLtI1EaEFF_MROuNP9t5HP83YHADtK2VpiNVMs_utGaU83gmcmf8WlcPedt9jPcLpv12kGvDqZoOeSucRVOw2TKo26WdwcuO0Ml0unsQgsXF4SUDURZrwdaBLCiHkA53nYhpo/s400/4eda450ceb5048eb869101bcb477ca05.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5506622130888815714" border="0" /></a><br />Mrawwr.<br /><br />I haven't camwhored for a very long time now. :D<br /><br />Life has been hectic.

You know it's bound to happen when you're studying in a well-known <strong>private college</strong> studying a well-known <strong>pre-university programme</strong>. Even if your friends aren't the ones that's gonna go, you'd be the one that's gonna be going. It sucks but there's nothing much that you really can do about it.<br /><br />I've had my share of fun throughout these past <strong>eighteen months</strong>. Truly, it's a time that I've never laughed so hard <strong>during class</strong> with Yi Wenn cracking jokes like freaking <strong>all the time</strong>. There's also the other classmates that'd laugh along because my laugh sounds like a duck quacking with a sore throat. I'm gonna miss these lil' things when I leave college. Sighh. D:<br /><br />I'm dedicating this post to Yi Wenn first, just because you guys don't read my blog that often. :)<br /><br /><blockquote><strong>Yi Wenn</strong><br /><br />We've got to thank Mr William for putting us four together, back when we had our first <strong>Malaysian Studies</strong> thingy going on. That's how we really met, if not we wouldn't even be having regular lunches together haha. I really enjoyed just spending time with you, macam waiting for time to pass. It's indescribable HAHA.<br /><br />You're indescribable. Whichever man that you're gonna marry has got to be a funny man, okay? I wanna see a family of comedians when we all have a reunion in twenty years' time!<br /><br />When you're in Australia, please, randomly pick out the hot JK and make sure he's super nice and funny too. It's a must la. Studying Commerce is gonna be a bore, so you must keep yourself happy and smiley always. You'll make lots of good friends and have even more fun times than you had with us. Without you, it's gonna be so different haha. But oh well, better move on than being stuck. :D<br /><br />And there won't be another Arthur Chia to teman you to help you do your stuffs anymore! Hah!</blockquote><br /><br />So that's one. Yi Wenn's gonna be leaving for Australia the week after next. Which is <strong>totally</strong> sad. D:<br /><br />I haven't gave her birthday present to her yet. )':<br /><br />GOODBYE YI WENN.<br /><br />Adieu.<br /><blockquote>An excerpt of a poem by Anne Bradstreet<br /><br /><strong>Taught what was good, and what was ill,<br />What would save life, and what would kill.<br />Thus gone, amongst you I may live,<br />And dead, yet speak, and counsel give:<br />Farewell, my birds, farewell adieu,<br />I happy am, if well with you.</strong><br /></blockquote>:)<br /><br />cheerioseets, arty.Arthur Chiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07563544052995917695noreply@blogger.com0
