A Fairytale

Long time ago, there was a young farmer. Although his life was not wealthy, he still live happily because he satisfied with his current condition. One day, he saved a bird found injured in his little farm. He wrapped up its wound and gave it a plate of milk before sleep. In the midnight, the farmer awoke by a beautiful lady. And the beauty told him she was the bird he saved just now.

"You saved my life young man. I'm a fairy from the wonderland. I'll tell you a secret in return. A secret to become a fairy, just like me. In the jungle north from here, there is a cave. Inside the cave, there is an apple tree. Eat the apple, and you shall become one of us." Finishing her words, the fairy change into a bird again and flew away. The farmer stunned by what he saw.

The next morning, he decided to search for the apple tree the fairy told him. After a long journey he finally found a cave. He walked deep into the dark cave, and what appeared in front of him was a very tall apple tree with apples hanging highly on it. The farmer start to think: "The tree is tall, but I think I still can climb it and pick an apple." The farmer's mind was filled with desire to become a fairy.

"Ah!" The farmer slipped and fell from the tree. He broke his left arm, but he did not gave up although he was in pain. "It's just a mistake, I just stepped on a wrong branch. I can reach the top if I climb more carefully." So he stood up and start climbing again.

"Arggh!" And again, he fell. He climbed to a higher place before falling, causing heavier injury than the first time. This time, he broke his right leg. The pain of broken arm and leg made the farmer suffered. He finally realized, it's beyond his capability to reach an apple. But he was too late to regret. It was impossible for him to go back alone with his injury now. He had no choice but to believe that he can get an apple.

He rested for awhile before he start climbing for the third time. In his mind, he understood that it was his last try and last hope. If he fall again and break his remaining arm or leg, he wouldn't be able to climb the tree nor return to his home anymore......

A Day of Mine

10:30am - Awake by alarm, but continue lying on bed.

11:00am - Finally escaped from bed to brush my teeth and take a bath.

11:30am - Bugging around my mom in kitchen while waiting for lunch time. Once in a blue moon, I'll help to broom and mop the floor.

12:30pm - Take my brunch (breakfast + lunch).

01:00pm - Switch on television and start drama-ing to improve my digestion (Warning: wrong concept, watching tv after ate is not good for digestion).

04:00pm - My mom take over the tv. So I move toward my laptop in room to "connect myself with the world".

06:30pm - Summoned to take dinner.

07:00pm - Again, sit in front of tv to digest but my mom is the one holding remote control.

08:30pm - Continue to synchronize with my computer after a bath because I'm not interested in Hong Kong dramas.

11:00pm - Sometimes, there are invitations for DotA. Or else, I'll retrieve the television from my mom and start the 2nd half of my dramaniac.

03:00am - Get onto bed and so, end of a normal day. No pain & no gain... Good Night! (Err... Maybe should be Good Morning)

Unlike most of my A-level friends who haven't start study, I never take any part-time job. Zennway claimed that I'm a home-junkie. But I forgive his naiveness because actually, I'm trying to culture super-mushrooms for the sake of human beings...

Subang Trip For IELTS

IELTS' overview:
Done Speaking, Listening and Reading quite decently. It's 2nd time I took the tests, no reason for me to be panic. However, Writing was a nightmare. I was totally blank throughout the test. Frankly, I think I did it worse than previous paper! Anyway, I still hope for a linear examiner and pray for God's generous to let me meet the requirements...

Stayed in Subang for 3 days because I had my Speaking appointment on 27th of March. Luckily Kenneth still stays around there to offer me a bed. He is done with Taylor and going to Monash, Malaysia for his twinning degree soon. Actually our interacting time was less than 3 hours those days because our routines are completely opposite. I woke up at 10am, but he woke up at 10pm.

Photobucket
Secretly took this photo as he will never let me take a photo of him. On call with his mom, discussing some buying estate plans. (Richman business @.@ )

Arrived there around 10pm and having a hard time searching for his place. Never expected his room is in a shop lot instead of apartment.

Photobucket
With only 6 rooms , the amount of shoes is definitely too excessive... (The photo only showed a corner of the shoes)

My original plan was to do my final revision in Subang but it's a failure. I was totally in "DotA Mode" after reached there. Roughly, I spent 20 out of my 60 hours there playing in FTZ. I played until 4.30am in the 1st night although I'll have my speaking test next morning. My nervousness had been completely overtook by DotA addiction..

In day time, I stuck in FTZ to kill my time because Kenneth was sleeping in room.

I only took my meal once a day besides junk foods, and always was chicken rice which is fast because I hate eating alone outside. Lost 2kg of weight because of that...
Photobucket

Once, I was shocked by a group of uniformed men walking into the c.c. as I thought was a checking operation. But they actually just some cadets or trainees that came to play DotA.
Photobucket
What a view, they were disrespecting their uniforms themselves.

In night time, Kenneth will disappeared after 11pm and I chose to stay in room alone so I'll able to tune myself back to "exam mode".
Photobucket

Heard about dual monitors for some time but it was the 1st time I saw the real thing. I was like "What the heck!" discovering that there are only 3 folders of mp3 in that high-end PC.
Photobucket
He explained that he'll go c.c. to play games & the dual monitors system is for drama-ing while researching through Internet. (Only this reason?!)

Photobucket
When I bored, I'll digs for some movies from these drawers. Reminded me of his room in his house. I like to scatter books, he like to scatter discs. Habits can never changed... LoL~

Photobucket
And eventually I found this... Edison's Scandal DVD. LoL~

The exam location was changed to Taylor Business School as there were too many candidates. We needed to queue long to enter the exam hall because there was only 1 register counter! There was an auntie passing by reached me to ask what we were queuing for. I told her in polite but actually I was @#$% in mind...
Photobucket

So my IELTS ended around 12:30pm and I had to rush to Seremban before 3pm for bus.
Photobucket
Presenting a cam-whoring photo as ending of my journey.
