Before and After

Before

After

Well, I got a haircut on my birthday... What does it feel like? Awfully light headed... I've got an awful headache now... But it is cooling... Hahaha... Though I must say that it is different from my old hairstyle... Well, so now I'm 18... How does it feel? Old, hahaha... Can't be helped... Oh well...

Well...

Well, I got my first job ever at GSC... Apparently working at the Gold Class section... Yeah, Went for an interview today at like 2pm and it was so embarassing... My dad called my mum's phone halfway through and it was making such a racket... And the worse part was, I didn't know how to switch my mum's phone to silent (It was some touch screen phone thing)... So anyway, it was fortunate that I still got the job... So yeah, will have a training stint on Wednesday from 11am for 4 hours, then will start working on Thursday for RM 3.80 per hour... Not much I know, but its still something... However, one of the criteria was that I had to get my hair cut... Bugger it... So I was thinking, maybe I should get something like this?
Its like really short to what I had in mind but this is what I think would look pretty cool... So I might get something like this... Or if not, Jay Manuel's hairstyle... Wooo... I think he has a pretty awesome hairstyle... Haha... I wouldn't mind something like this...
But to do these requires a jelly like substance known as gel... Haha... Never used it before... So this is going to be interesting... Haha... I apologise to those who would prefer me to have long hair... And I bet some of you are rejoicing... *Ahem**Calvin*... But yeah, work comes first and if I have to cut it... I will...

Fa La La La La La La La La...

Woah, I didn't know there were so many 'La's in the song... Haha... Deck the halls with boughs of holly... Fa la la la la la la la la... Phew... 8 las... Well, Merry Christmas to all who I have not wished... Christmas this year has been pretty interesting... Considering I got pulled in the last minute to work on the computer during the Christmas production... Not to say I'm complaining... Just blast Sam for not being able to make it for the practices... Sigh... Anyway, two days before Christmas I had an inspiration on what I should give away for Christmas... Kinda weird really... I wasn't initially planning on giving anything away... I wanted to skip Christmas and not do anything... But the idea hit me when I was in bed on Tuesday... To make cards using toothpicks to write their names... So after 2 days of hard work... Going out with Gene Harn whom I haven't met to buy the cards (Killing two birds with one stone) on Wednesday... And staying up late till 2am to finish it off ( I don't think Ruth would have been pleased with that)... I got it done!!!

And it sorta look like this...
Woooo... Unfortunately, I gave all but two away before I could take pictures of it... So yeah... Haha... I only took one, but you get the idea... I used wire to make some other names... Names which were too long to make with toothpicks... It wouldn't fit on the card... :P

So anyway, after the Christmas production which went rather well (considering there were a few mistakes in the last practice), but I was quite pleased with the way everything turned out... Everyone did pretty good... Especially Ben Kane and Jeremy... Yeah... And I'll always remember baboons expressing aggressive behaviour... Woo... Hahaha...

After the service, gave away the cards... Got a really nice muffin from HEIDY... Thank you so much... It was really nice... Could I have the recipe for it? Hahaha... It was so good... I want more... More cards.... And yeah... That was it...

In the afternoon, went to my cousin's place for a Christmas lunch... Had like two plates of ham and turkey and chicken and salads and corn.... Hahaha... Then, we had some kind of search for your presents kind of thing... I was at a disadvantage, I had no idea what the layout of the house was... It was like my first time there compared to the others who had been there many times... So I had help... :) Well, I found it, and guess what I got? An electrical shaver!!! Woo... Now I don't have to worry about cutting myself when I shave... Haha...

Well, got back from that... Had a snooze... And boy, did I sleep... Slept for ages... Woke up and Christmas was over... It was now my sister's birthday... So yeah, Happy Birthday Jessica... You're now 14...
Guess you're legal now... Hahaha...

CF Christmas Party 08

Woohoo... My sixth blog post this month... I'm four more to double digits... Haha... Well, CF Christmas party took place on the 19th of December at Derrick's place... Firstly, thanks Jaclyn and her mom for taking me there... Otherwise I don't know how on earth I'm gonna get there... Thanks to Derrick as well for letting us use his place for this party... The place was huge... There was like a pool there... Haha... Well, I admit it was great fun just walking into the place... Some people didn't recognize me and for those who did... They wanted a picture the moment I walked past the gate... Haha... Well, it was fun... For the first half an hour we just sat around and fellowshiped... Then we could eat... Haha... the food was great, especially the chocolate cakey fudgey brownie thingy that was nice... Kudos to Daniel and Timothy Sim's maid!!! Haha... Yeah... It was nice... Choi even took it off the table so he could have it for himself... haha... Then, we had Icebreakes... First game, "Honey. Honey I Love You", which basically is a game which involves trying to make the opposite sex change their facial expression... I had a start and I don't even know how I got to start... Apparently Tze Lin's reason is that I was smiling... Who doesn't smile? Sheesh. I ask you... Anyway, I started and within 5 minutes I got Elena Ong to laugh... that's pretty good at my standards... Haha... Others took ages.... So much that I think the plot of the game was lost... Haha... Then we played Guess The Leader... That was fun... It had like a twist to the game... The game was to send out four people (Tian Xi, Johanan, Aaron and I)... And send them in again, one at a time to guess who the leader is (the person who jumps the highest and shouts the loudest)... We were sent back on one at a time to guess the leader and I was the last to get sent back in... Anyway, Tze Lin explain the game to me, to find the leader who is jumping the highest and shouts loudest... Anyway, I was given 3 chances... My first and second guess was wrong... But my third guess was right... I couldn't believe it!!! But here's where the first twist came in, There was no real leader... Whoever I picked the last would be leader... haha... Blast Jaclyn into making me believe... She was like : 'Oh, you're so good at this game, Ethan.' Bleh... Remind me never to trust her again... hahaha... Anyway, the person I picked (Andrea) was sent out and I was chosen to be the new leader because I was sporting... haha.... So Andrea came back in... Guessed wrongly the first 2 times and on the third time... No one jumped except for yours truly... Apparently that was where the second twist came in... To humiliate me... haha... It was so embarrasing... It was a set up I tell you... A set up... Lol... Anyway, let begones be begones... Put the past behind us and one day look behind and laugh at how red my face turned... So anyway, we carolled and we sang 'the police stole my car'... Haha... Good times... I can't believe the turnout of those who are expired as well... Such as Tze Yuen, Aaron, Ben Ji, Geoffrey, Kington, Sarah and so many more... Then we went off to fellowship for the rest of the night... The thing was... It was like the oldies were in one room and the newbies were in another... haha... Separated by the hallway... I believe that is allopatric speciation... Perhaps if we leave it long enough... Perhaps we might evolve? hahaha... At 11.30, I followed Ben Ji back... haha... And that was the end... I might some real cool people that day as well... Mostly afternoon sessioners... People like Cassandra, Hazel, Cherish, Alicia, Daniel, Timothy, etc... Haha... it was great... Good times.. Unfortunately, this may be my last CF Christmas party i'll be attending... So yeah... Memories...

My 10 Hour Flight Ordeal

So let's begin my journey back... I was dropped off at the airport by my uncle at 0900 hours... Bags packed and loaded in the boot, I said my final goodbyes to my aunt and cousins and went to the airport to be checked in... So there I was, waiting patiently for my friends to turn up while flipping through the books in the book store, occasionally checking the monitors in the lounge to ensure that my gate has not changed and that the flight was not delayed... Anyway, it was 1050 hours when we entered the boarding gate, another hour before our actual flight, just sitting around, chatting with my friends and being all excited that in 13 hours or so I'd be back in Malaysia... So, 1115 hours when we began boarding the plane... I can tell you now that my experiences with planes has never been good... I hate the feeling of walking into the plane, mentally feeling the change of pressure on your skull, like your skull is gonna explode... I hate taking off or landing, especially when your ears begin to hurt like crazy... I hate airplane food, just because it looks soggy and smells disgusting... Haha... Anyway, a 10 hour flight... Thankfully I was sitting quite close to my friends so I could always get out of my seat and walk to where he/she was sitting... Like I told my friend, you don't pay to sleep on the plane... You pay to use the in-flight entertainment and for the food... Haha... So that's what I did... For the whole 10 hours of flight from Christchurch, New Zealand to Singapore, I used the in-flight entertainment to the fullest... Watching movies I have never seen before such as Star Wars: The Clone Wars, The Incredible Hulk, and Hellboy I... The rest of the time I spent either eating or playing random games on the entertainment units... Although I hate airplane food, I'll still eat it... So anyway, we had 2 meals on board the flight, lunch and some kind of snack to keep us going... For lunch, we had a choice of meatballs and linguini or fish and rice... Next to airplane food, I too despise fish... Haha... I gotta say this though, when it was my turn to be served, the air hostess told me that they were out of fish... Haha... That seemed to be my lucky day... I hate fish!!! So very much... Especially steamed fish... Lol... So yeah... However, I had an option during the snacks of chicken or beef... I had chicken and surprise surprise, it was actually really nice... Haha... That was basically my flight all the way to Singapore... The flight to KL was not too bad except that the plane was filled with koreans and they were making so much noise... Sigh... All I wanted was some peace and quiet... My head was about to burst from exhaustion and jet lag and I just couldn't take the noise anymore... haha... The 35 minute flight was soon over though and I could finlly prise myself away from those noisy bunch of people... So, I reached Malaysia and guess what, I find myself waiting at the airport for an hour and a half because my family were running late... So cheers Cheri for making the call to my dad for me, you were awesome, and now I owe you big time... Haha... I saw her online and she was the very first to welcome me to Malaysia... Haha... Oh well, now I'm back and making the most of life here... Haha... Oh one more thing, one thing I found real confusing was the fact that Singapore airlines uses calming music when they play their safety video... I mean, if you want people to pay attetion to the video, Why would you want to play calming music? That would only want to make people fall asleep... Haha...
