The girls is back and we're hanging out. hmm, I noticed our outings is always gastronomically pleasing...
Location : El elcerdo , Changkat Bkt Bintang
I was indeed surprised by our main dish....
Roasted Suckling Piglet
It looked huge , compared to chinese roasted piglet. Served on a wooden board, the piglet is nicely displayed and marianated. The skin is cracker-like crunchy, at the same time , the meat texture remains tender and succulent. Judging by the light-sourly taste of the meat, I guess they use vinegar to marianate, skip the herbs , using sause to complement it. I'm going to experiment this method with char siew!
The waiter performed a Spanish traditionfro us, we're asked to wish for money or relationship.
Its was funny to see him smirked " hmm,... you sure you want relationship.?" After that, using the plate to chop the piglet in to 3 section, he instructed us to make a wish and break the plate into pieces!
Break a plates (leg) huh?
Its must be rather profitable to sell plate in Spain....."plate that worth breaking!"
Baked potatoes that comes with the suckling pig.
Besides, i think its very thoughtful for them to give us a shot ,for better digestion, they said. Lime juice, white wine and martini good for digestion? 
Chocolate Molten cake at 21 bar( finished by us after several scoop..)
After we;re done with dessert, we sat on the lounge and talked. Its quite sometime since I last chatted with them, hmm.....just like those good old day....

T.T
Today would be the fifth day my dad stopped talking to me......
whenever I try to make a conversation, it end with a uncomfortable silence.
" Take any professional course you like, but ECONS? in Singapore? You can graduate as a acountant, locally with 80k"
"I guess I'm those ordinary people who take ordinary courses" I beseeched.
He sighed.
what wrong with un-professional courses?
以后靠自己了。。。。
陳綺貞-After17
一步一步走过昨天我的孩子气
孩子气保护我身体
每天每天电视里贩卖新的玩具
我的玩具就是我自己
自从那一天起我自己做决定
自从那一天起不在意谁的否定
自从那一天起听我说的道理
when i am after 17…

Orientation Week @ UM
KOLEJ KEDIAMAN KEEMPAT
Reached at 29th June, its was lunch time then. Along the road, parent were carrying bulky luggage bag, while their child holding files, with a glorious face read- I"M A UM STUDent.
Fortunately, my dad doesnt need to suffer that, as his daugther has managed to drag her bag all the way through the uphill road.
Tahap keusangan yang tinggi floor
Looks like Harry Potter;s hall stair huh> I do hope it could move like those stairs in the movie.
4th college is built at 1962, and from my point of view, it hasnt changed much. The design, wall, window are..... erm... rich with historical values.
3 bed room
Roommates are from Sungai Buloh and Pahang. They are warm-hearted, throughout the orientation I'd borrowed pails, hangers, food, cloths....... I"m very grateful they put up with my carelessness. Yes, I ;m a "big headed prawn"
My floor, B 300, situated at the 5th floor... can u imagine how i walked up and down numerous time a day?
MOnkey evening meeting is held here... participant.. 5-10 monkey DAILY!!!
UM is a university surrounded by greens. Lots of lush green woods, field. I felt like I was on a vacation everyday! Especially at night, as my college is beside the wood, its quite chilly ( like genting) , I slept everyday serened by the sound of buzzing insect. Lying on the mattress, i could feel the tranquility . This might be the only place in KL to have such environment.
Then all those competition came in. I participated in choir,its a challenging one, my leader talk to me 2 hour before the performance and ask me to play the piano. They are good in persuading, keep telling me " you diploma, can do it one.... think abt 4th college..!!! you love 4th college rite~~"
Well, I ended up playing at Dewan Tunku Cansellor... Its pretty amazing experience to performace at such huge hall!
Sadly, our choir lost-miserably.
The trainers, Mr Syaid, always gives us inspirational ideas. He is a CAPTAIN in PALAPES ( stand by army force) and he mentioned lots of his notion about MAHASISWA, how we should " membangkitkan semangat bangsa", "bersumbang kepada negara dengan pengetahuan kita"
He make me believe that, as a undergraduate, we have so many potential to contribute to our country. Nevertheless, the Uni education will mould us into that great being.
He quoted ,"Kalau nak senang di masa depan, belajarlah menghadapi kesusahan and kecabaran sekarang juga". He dissented about how youth now acting LEMBIk, and how we should be more independant, and participate in our country issue
Suprisingly, few of my close friend in the orientation is malays. Initially I was concerned I couldnt fit in with them. The things is, they are real friendly and impart me about they " common term" (bengong, puyu, gugup), constantly explain to me about the meaning of words, song. Tikah, my sel mate even teach me how to speak kelantan malay... real funny lesson!
I would say I learn a lot from them. Majority of them are from east coast, perlis, kedah , terrengganu. They discussed with me about their family expectation, financial problem and opinions . Alot of them taking loans and have to strive in studies as well as work hard for their loan.
I look and them, at the same time, I felt ashamed of myself.
If they, without any backing from family, without strong financial plan,able to take up the chance, then I should able to do that.
Seriously, UM is good... locally. While NUS.... internationally.

梦= 林夕
最近晚上都睡不好，心血来潮 把 “挖”。 看会以前听得歌，要介绍这位 很 棒的 创作 人。 很多经典的歌都是他的杰作。。。 像《K歌之王》、《十年》、《背包》《飞女正传》《少女的祈祷》、《Shall We Talk》《大城小事》《你的名字我的姓氏》
的确。。 他所写得歌 有大约2000++。。。 是 香港音乐的 legacy.
Quote 林夕
情感的难捱，又或者是幻灭，本来就没有什么特别之处。此处上演，彼处亦出现。
而深情总是易碎，似风中摇摆的玻璃灯笼。
愈沉溺于它的美好，愈禁不住无情的敲打。
若最终是逃不脱一地碎片，你会不会仍提着它赤足行走？ ”
作曲：柳重言
作词：林夕
还没为你把红豆 熬成缠绵伤口
然后一起分享 会更明白 相思哀愁
还没好好感受 醒着亲吻温柔
可能我左右 你才追求 孤独自由
林夕 造就了王菲，从《约定》（。。。。明日天地 只恐怕认不出自己 仍未忘跟你约定假如没有死。。。。）开始，
他“写”出王菲现实 格性，也许因为这样，唱出的忧伤让人听得落泪
林夕在杨千华十周年演唱会说 ：有人说王菲是我的大女儿，千华是二女儿， 其实千华是我的一块肉。他喜欢千华歌唱时感情拿捏得十分到位,自己对感情的看法写在千华的歌
作曲/编曲/监制:雷颂德
作词:林夕
青春仿佛因我爱你开始
但却令我看破爱这个字
自你患上失忆
便是我扭转命数的事
只因当失忆症发作加深
没记住我但却另有更新蜜运
像狐狸精般
并未允许我步近
无回忆的余生
忘掉往日情人
却又记住移情别爱的命运
无回忆的男人
就当偷厄与瞒骗
抱抱我不过份
吻下来 豁出去
这吻别似覆水
再来也许要天上团聚
再回头 你不许
如曾经不登对
你何以双眼好像流泪
彼此追忆不怕爱要终止
但我大概上世做过太多坏事
能从头开始
跪在教堂说愿意
娱乐行的人影
还在继续繁荣
我在算着甜言蜜语的寿命
人造的蠢卫星
没探测出我们已
已再见不再认
3 陈奕迅 《你的背包》， 《我们都寂寞》
“我恨我我不知道想要甚么。。。我不知道拥有甚么。。。可能我们都寂寞”
晚上半夜读书，陪伴我的是这首“我们都寂寞”
。。。。。。为怕寂寞我们做了很多
最没空寂寞
偶遇你之后我说
想有人爱我就有人爱我
可是我不知道想要甚么
不知道拥有甚么
可能我们都寂寞
迎面一个老尼姑走过
把路灯看破
有你在家里苦等的我
难道比她幸福得多
现在不想下班的我
没爱好难过有爱算甚么
走过马路的我说
一个人寂寞两个人寂寞
可能我我不知道拥有甚么
而我又缺少甚么
我害怕甚么怕甚么
我不知道爱算甚么
而我又算甚么我们都寂寞
词：林夕
编曲：方大同
按扭声 拆楼声 跳楼声 听不听
唱K 声 唱票声 上牌声 碰牌声
吃糊声 算帐声 诉苦声 听不听
＊涌涌声浪撞睡莲 瞬间生灭如一念
闭起眼观照 尘世上音波的曲线
法界看尽众声 喧哗闪似电
像贪瞋痴交响盛宴＊
攻讦对拆论辩胡言 倾心细诉立誓甜言
争吵哄骗大闹谣言 也更可是非点
烽烟抗议怒骂儳言 悲哭控诉道别留言
招呼耳语问候微言 说教劝交吹牛敷衍
雨会干 鸟会飞 蝶会死 梦会醒
树会枯 爱会苦 耳会躲 听不见
疾似风 逝似烟 谢似花 碎似灰
远似星 淡似水 静似心 听不见
REPEAT＊
彼此有压力未能眠 彼此有怨念梦难甜
彼此有困局问谁怜 世界谁在打点
彼此有抱憾未能言 彼此也有恨问谁填
彼此也有病被人嫌 有劫要等高人指点
(喜欢你 打倒你 未解决等你)
念在你 推举你 别一味小器
(未表决等你 为何你未忘记
为何你想死)
大家都等你 你去死 为何你想死
听飞蚁扑翼伴愁眠 听丧礼眼泪滴成莲
听乞丐钵上撞铜钱 听众声在表演
听短讯往复渡余年 听伊美对骂疾如蝉
听心跳放下静如禅 听法句经释然
释迦说法赠下遗言 拈花带笑静默无言
超生破障寂灭忘言 你会否静一点
听一个印度籍童言 听他笑说欲渡明年
听他喝清水彷似箭 你会否不张扬捐钱
道理深 道理浅 放于心解脱
无常道都不可说 靠你解决
可以把“观世音“和 日常生活的“音”再融入佛理来写词。。。。how cool can it be!!!

me and myself
I know it may sound like i;m completely ga-ga... but still. share your thoughts with me, i wann know what u think about this.
Have you ever sit back and think about how you spend your youth? As in the age of 13-20?
For me, I've always tried to make things eventful.. in another words, kept myself busy with activities. Join camp, go hiking , go to events, and study, tuition classes and stuff.
Now I realise, I did everything I could to enrich my life. But I feel empty. Always for chasing something. Food-Shoes- movies- you name it.
Lately I figured it out..........I didnt spend much time with MYself.
My satisfaction comes from an item or and trip, it would only last I;m doing it, or few weeks after I experienced it. Then, the cycle continues.. I wait in despair for another trip, another outings...all because I can need something to fill me in,
Or maybe, maybe I just cant stand being alone with myself. Alone as in not doing anything to occupy myself, just michelle facing the inner "michelle" .
Without music, books or any stimulation.
Sounds crazy huh?
Lately, the inner "michelle" told me I'm not living my life properly.
She said I'd been struggling,,,which i think its very true.
You ought to try it out, spending time alone and think. ( sleeping time doesnt count)
I bet you never try it before, give me a sneer look, saying "that is absolutely nonsense/boring"
Again, that prove how much you conscious mind trying to run away from ur inner mind!

Cameron HIghland 17-19/5/2008
The fact is, I've been to cameron twice a year since 3 years old. If you asked me how it is like, i would say its relaxing, but not neccessary fun.
However, this time is a memorably fun. Well, everything changes when you have great companies.
A visit to Rose park wasnt that boring anymore, now that I have people to goof with.
Usually, I would be spending hours drinking tea and read books at tea park.seeing how they excitedly scrolled along tea park, I went along. It feels like the first time I walk on it.
Somehow, food tasted nicer when you have to fight with others to eat it.
Ping pong games are harder to play when jia mien is good in smashing balls.
The garden doesnt feel so empty when you have people running on it. chasing frissbee like a mad dog.
Its doesnt feel so cold when you;re in the heat of you-know-i'm-your-partner-then-dont-put-trump-card lAH! Bridge time.
The wine finishes faster when four youngster with one red-faced girls drinking it.
The nights are definitely better when we started talking, its doesnt mind whether is about MTV , gossip or "blow water"-ing.
Special thanks to peyyi,mien, nic and liang...
(to nich...your chivas regal still in cupboard? its time we finish it! )
I'm anticipating our next trip....
