Hey everyone,
Sorry that I haven't updated you with all that's been happening in Sweden so far but there seems to be a problem with the picture uploading in the blogger here. So, I won't do any new posts until I get back to Malaysia which is in December 31st. Right before new years!
Anyway, right now it's a white Christmas here in Sweden~ It finally snowed right on Christmas eve! But for Sweden apparently they celebrate Christmas on the 24th instead of the 25th. Present time!
My uncle and auntie gave me 500 Kronos (RM250) to buy myself a present since they don't know what I like. I told them it was too much but they wouldn't accept my refusal *sigh*...
So now I have to choose on what I should get later as my present. But I won't buy anything until the 26th since that's when the megasale starts over here. Prices on all items will drop faster than you could say sale!!! Ahahaha! I'm looking forward to see what I can get for myself before I go back to Malaysia. Oh yeah did I mentioned I already got myself a guitar? Yes I'm rubbing it in to all of you right now bwahahaha!
Anyhoo~ I'll post all the stories in Sweden when I get back to Malaysia later. Until then~ Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everyone!!!

Some food from Sweden~
Hey everyone,
As promised, here are some pictures of the food over here. Seriously nice I tell you.
This one my uncle calls it Nasi Goreng Mat Salleh style. Instead of rice they use potato cubes. The red jello looking thing is called radish apparently.
This is the best burger I have ever tasted in my entire life! And its only available in Sweden. They didn't have an international franchise. The place is called Max Burger and it's seriously nice!
Another from Max Burger. This one is called Chilli Cheese. They grilled the cheese with the chillies inside it. Damn nice taste! It's only available from Max Burger outlets in all of Sweden.
This is the kebab style they do in Sweden. It's like... HUGE! I almost couldn't finish the whole thing! Never in my life before have I eaten kebab with fork and knife though. That was a first.
Last but not least, the swedish meatballs! A lot of my friends back home wanted to eat the meatball. It's quite nice actually.

Some Scenery from Sweden
Hello all,
As the title says, I posted some photos that I took around Sweden. It's not much yet though as I haven't had the time to go around the city to take more stuffs but it's better than nothing.
The spot where I took this photo is fantastic. You can see the whole city from the view up there.
This island is in the middle of the city. Nice isn't it?
This is me by the boat restaurant. Apparently this boat never sails. It's a high class restaurant, or so I have been told. Haven't try the food there yet.
The tree that I'm pointing at is seriously huge. This photo was taken far far away from it because we couldn't get a parking spot near the tree.
The statue of the first king of Sweden I think? The guy lived over 400 years ago.
Snapshot of the 7 Eleven store of Sweden. Inside it is seriously huge. x3 the size of Malaysia's 7 Eleven.
Festival going on near the place I'm staying at. It took place at the train station of the area. They used the bonfire behind me to do some BBQing.
This is the tree near the plaza next to the train station at my area.
Dirty pile of snow that came in last week. Seriously dirty isn't it?
Another tree near the plaza. Looks nice right?
Pony and goat arguing with each other. Cute ain't it?
Me near the train station of Akalla (that's the area I'm staying in).
The merry-go-round ride of the festival. Cute?
Entrance to the park. Looks nice right? The park is so much different than Malaysia's park. It's so clean and woody.
The public library of my area.
Fountain overflowing with weeds all over.
Tree infront of the library.

Hello Sweden~
Hey people!
Today was my first day in Sweden and I have to say, it's way better than anything that I had expected so far! The plane trip was a drag as it was a 12 hour flight. The good thing is though that they had a great selection of movies on the planes that you can watch on the flight. I watched Dark Knight, Wall-E, Assasin, Mr. and Mrs. Smith and many more. Besides that, I also tried to finish one of the books that I bought last month but I only got to read only half of the book during the flight. The movies were too distracting.
Anyway~ We reached Sweden at 2.00pm Sweden time which is around 8.45pm Malaysia time. It was not as cold as I thought it would be. Honestly, I was expecting it to be below 0 degrees celcius but it was a positive sign. Sadly, the snow had melted when we reached there but at least we're going to be here for a month so we will definitely see some snow action soon ahahah!
My aunt and uncle took me to their place in Scandanavia and showed us around the shopping mall as well as playing some catch up stories. We were window shopping around the mall and I can't believe the prices around the place. It was way cheaper than Malaysia price which means~ Shopping! Ahahahaha! But we won't start shopping until the 26th December as they will be having some kind of a warehouse sale.
Other than that, I absolutely positively love the internet connection here at my uncle's place! It's like a dream come true~ The air around Sweden is seriously nice and cold. But it's not as cold as my mom and sis described at me before. Anyway~ I have to start writing some articles for the INTI Insider now. A lot to do in a week! See ya next time peepz!

Club meetings, Farewell Miss Koh & Woo hoo Twilight Premier!
Hey everybody,
It's been a week since I last wrote on the blogger and quite a few interesting things happened within this week. There was the Ed Board meet that me, Alexis and LP had on tuesday. Before I start the story, I'd like to say that I was right about Alexis being late for the meeting and losing the bet with me ahahaha! Okay anyway~ We had a lot of discussions about what we're going to do for Jan sem and boy, did we dream big! We're making that dream a reality even though it's big. The meeting lasted for about, 4 hours + I think when it should have been only 2 hours tops. Oh well~ Because of that long meeting we had a lot of ideas now that are already in motion.
After the meeting Alexis, LP and I bumped into Jonathan and Han Sen when we went to eat at Asia Cafe. We started talking a lot and tried to name all the US States which I think we failed or miscounted. We decided to go with miscounted instead of fail ahahahah! When we gave up on the game, Alexis had to leave to go to Mid Valley and the rest of us just headed for SAO/SSD. I and Han Sen had some things we needed to do there so LP and Jonathan tagged along with us.
Over there we started talking a few crappy things~ I and Han Sen were discussing about some books that we read like the Twilight saga while LP and Jonathan were talking about all this military airplanes and stuff. We all had nothing better to do so we pratically 'stoned' ourselves in the SAO/SSD until 6.00pm. When it was time for the office to close, Jonathan left to send Han Sen home while I walked LP to his car and was deciding whether I should just call it a day and let him send me home. I decided it was too early for me to go home just yet so I stayed back and listened to my music until 8.oopm.
Instead of waiting for my Stepdad to pick me up, I decided to walk home that day because I haven't walked home for such a long period of time after a certain incident that happened then. I had to lie to my mom about how I was going home though, cause she would probably freak out and start to yell at me if I told her I was walking home alone. So, I told my mom that a friend of mine was sending me back by car. Then, I rushed myself home so that she wouldn't get suspicious. The night walk was very peaceful and relaxing for me. Most people would panic because their afraid of getting mugged or raped or killed when their walking home alone at night but for me, it was just so nice. The air felt cold that night and I could even see a few stars lit up in the night sky and was strangely quiet surprisingly since I live in a city that doesn't exactly sleep early.
The next day, which is wednesday, we had a farewell party for Miss Koh, our student affairs director. The party was at night though, so I went to college first to do a few things and relax a little bit. That day was also Mr. Amir's birthday so I went and bought him two pieces of cheese mouse cake for him while the staff of SAO/SSD bought him a full cake. I didn't stay for the cake though. I went to AUP office to do a little bit of research on a problem that I've been facing. It didn't really turn out helpful though, as it was telling me things that I had already known. Alexis and LP came later to finish off some things for Ed Board that we discussed yesterday.
Around 6.00pm, the three of us, with Suzanne and JC left for pyramid for the party. We went early because we wanted to do some shopping before that ahahah! LP was looking for something from the Machines shop there and the rest of us followed him there. I excused myself from there and went off to look for a few books to help me with my problems. I manage to find only one so far though, but it helped me explain a few things that I didn't even knew were related. When I finished looking at the books, I went back to the shop to find everyone but no one was there. I called Alexis and she said she and LP went back to college to fetch her camera.
I didn't know where JC and Suzanne were, so I just went to Italliannes as it was time for the party to start. Along the way, I met Ben, Yan Ming and Felicia and we headed for the same direction. We passed May Chong, Joshan and Oliver who told us to go on ahead to the restaurant. JC and Suzanne were already sitting at the table there so I went and joined them. They were asking me where I was and I told them I was looking at some books but I didn't tell them what books they were exactly. After awhile LP and Alexis along with many others started to arrive for the party. Then, the VIP guest arrived at 8.00pm and was very surprise on the turn-up ahahah!
We started sitting in groups and started sharing the food orders. A lot of funny stuff happened that night such as Christine making JC pour water on himself, Alexis eating a psychotically spice enhanced pizza to win a bet and JC cutting a box up and trying to eat it. There was also a lot of cam whoring that night obviously ahahaha! Unfortunately, I forgot to get the pictures from Alexis so no pictures yet guys. Sorry! When we were about to call it a night, the bill came and some difficulties rosed from that. The waiter had combined all the bills so we were all trying to remember how much each group had ordered. Then, Miss Koh went on ahead and paid the whole bill by herself and said that dinner's on her. We all went "Nooooooooooooooo!!" because the bill was like over RM 1000++ and we couldn't let her pay for it as we were the ones who organized the party for her. She persisted on paying and said that paying was the least she could do after the party we had for her. She said that we were students and should not pay for that much and convinced us that the staff would pay her back the next day.
We said okay to her, but May Chong didn't want that so she had everyone pay at least RM 30 behind her back so that we could pay her back for the dinner. After the party ended, it was time to go home and LP was sending me with his car while Alexis was sending Suzanne and JC with hers. LP wanted to stop by the Machines shop again though to buy an IPod Touch and headphones. I waited outside for him and Alexis, JC and Suzanne joined me as they left some stuff in his car.
After awhile, he finally finished picking the IPod and headphones and apologized to us for making us wait for him. In the car, he and I were talking about some stuffs and started talking about all kinds of funny stuff about some people that we knew. He let me be the one to be the first person to open and play with his new IPod Touch as an apology gift for making me wait outside and guard his stuff earlier which I told him was fine but I still wanted to play with the IPod ahahahah! Unfortunately, the IPod needs to have ITunes installed inside before you could do anything with it so that was a bust. Instead he let me try out his new headphones first. The headphones were really loud and clear but it was a little bit big and his silicon earphones still beat the headphones in terms of loudness.
When we reached my place, we wished each other to have a nice trip as I was leaving for Sweden and he was going to go to Singapore and Thailand for the holidays. Apparently, a lot of people are asking me for a souvenir when I get back from Sweden. When I say a lot, I mean A LOT. I think currently there are over 20 people who have requested a souvenir.
On Thursday, it was the Twilight movie premier and I, Jillian, Celine, May Chong, Charles, KC, Han Lim and his GF went to watch it in the morning. The theater was extremely loud with screaming fans, mostly girls who wants to see the main actor of the movie. Jillian and I were making fun of all the screaming girls in our seats which was kind of mean but fun to do ahahaha! The movie was just awesome and there was a lot of humor in it. Especially around the character named Jasper ahahahah! We all said that that dude was just so wrong ahahaha! Comparing the movie with the book of course, as expected, the book was definitely better.
When the movie was finished, we went to the Manhattan Fish Market restaurant to eat our overdue lunch. We were discussing on whether or not we should go and watch another movie or go back to college. We decided to go back because everyone was tired and feeling a little broke after lunch ahahaha! When we finished a few things in college, Han Lim sent me, Suzanne and Shaza, who we met in College, home.
The next day, which was friday yesterday, I went to college to meet up with Alexis and finish up some of the Ed Board stuffs that LP had done before he left for his trip. We took some time to finish the thing, but we managed. We sent it back to LP so that he would finish off a few details that he missed out and we didn't know how to do it. Han Lim and Suzanne were there as well and they asked to borrow my Twilight saga books when they saw that Miss Terri was returning them to me. Of course I agreed, since I was going to be gone for a month anyway and that should give them enough time to finish reading the books.
After that we went to SAO/SSD to celebrate Kak Shima's birthday. Wow, it seems as if everyone's birthday is this month ahahahah! When we were done eating the cakes and snacks, Alexis drove me home before she went back. In the car, we decided on a few things to do like the contents for the next issue of the INTI Insider Newsletter. We brainstormed all the way and came up with quite a lot of contents for the newsletter ahahah! Then we said our goodbyes and told each other to finish up some of the articles and to call Jillian and Naomi to start writing the other articles.
And that's the end of this week thus far. Today I originally had plans but they were unconfirmed so I guess it's cancelled. Tomorrow I'm having a family prayers thing going on before I leave for Sweden. My flights confirmed on Monday at 8.45am. Ugh, means that I need to wake up super early and we have to leave for the airport by 6.00am. Until next time people~ I'll tell you what it's like in Sweden when I get there. See ya then!

Finished a few books and... Sweden?!
During the holiday, I got kind of bored so I went back to my habit of reading story books. Last time I read the whole Harry Potter series and finished it in about a month. This time, I started reading the Twilight series which is just so good! The movie's coming out on 27th November and I can't wait to watch it! I have a really bad habit when it comes to reading books. When I find the story interesting, I would read the book nonstop until I finished it. I would sometimes miss a meal or take a bath and I would not sleep at all. I would just keep on reading it until I finished it completely.
For the Twilight series, there's only four books which were as thick as the Harry Potter series. I finished all four books in five days. That's right you heard me. Five days! I lacked sleep but I was still aware amazingly to finish of the books. The story was just too good for me to put down the book without knowing what happens next. I really can't wait to see how the movie would turn out as the books were just amazing!
Now I'm on my next series book which is called 'The Vampire Diaries'. It's not as thick as the Twilight series and there's only two book of it but it seems to be quite interesting. Dang, now I have to go look for a new series to read soon. Oh yeah, did I mention that for the whole month of December I will be going on a holiday to Sweden by myself? Yes I'm gloating to all of you right now bwahahahah! I'll be staying in Sweden with my aunt, uncle and cousin who lives there. Yay! I'm excited to play in the snow~ And face the cold!
That's all the time I have left for today, for it seems that my internet connection went haywire...again. So, until next time folks! See ya!

That's all the time I have left for today, for it seems that my internet connection went haywire...again. So, until next time folks! See ya!
First thing to do during holiday!
Let me start off with my original holiday plans after the semester was over. At first, the plan was for the whole month of November, I would keep myself busy with some outings with a group of friends of mine all over the place. A few days after council camp, I went to watch James Bond with the "Kalumpang" group, which was a bit of a disappointment for me. I mean the movie, duh. It just didn't feel right to me and was a little bit draggy and stalling. After that the rest of them watched My Best Friend's Girl which I chose to sit out because I had already watched it like, months ago I think. Suzanne didn't want to watch it either so the two of us went window shopping all around 1U while waiting for the others to finish the movie.
Last Sunday, I went to watch Madagascar 2 with Han Sen and Jonathan which was really hilarious. Before the movie though, we were feeling a little bit hungry so we went to Carl's Jr. for lunch. During then, I sneaked a few of these chocolate cylinder tower desert things to celebrate Han Sen's birthday. He was so surprised by it he just kept on saying "Oh my gosh" and "Thank you!" nonstop. After that we went to watch the movie and I really enjoyed it. I like the movie, movie! Ahahaha! When the movie was done we went to look at some clothes all over Pyramid. Jonathan and I were discussing what to get Han Sen for a birthday present and he remembered that Han Sen was looking at these shoes the other day.
So, we took Han Sen to the shoe place and asked him to choose which shoes he wanted because we didn't know his size, unfortunately. Even more unfortunate for Han Sen, non of the shoes had his size. He was a size 8 and 9 but they only had size 6,7 and 10. We were thinking like it was as if God didn't want him to buy shoes. So instead we went to one of the clothes shops we went earlier and ask him to choose one. He really didn't want us to buy him a present but we told him if he didn't let us get him a present, we would tie him up and burn all of his clothes at his house so that he would have no choice but to let us buy him the clothes ahahaha! He gave in and let us pay for this shirt that he chose which was a little bit expensive but it was in our budget ahahaha!
After that, we went to look for a birthday present for Alexis as her birthday was on that day. Han sen's birthday was actually on the 20th but he was starting work on Monday so we took him out that day instead. Anyway back to the story, we were thinking of what to get for Alexis as a birthday present. Since we were in a clothes shop, we thought maybe get her a dress. Then we were imagining her in a dress which was like... we couldn't imagine it cause we never saw her in one before ahahah! Then we thought, "How about a skirt?". We tried to imagine her in a skirt, but we can only picture her in one of those working kind of skirts as we have seen her in those before ahahah.
After letting our imaginations run loose, we thought "Let's just go get her a book". Next was choosing a book for her. At first we wanted to get her one of those 'Photography for dummies' kind of books, but she already knows the basics of photography. So we tried to find an inspirational book instead. But we didn't know what book would inspire her in what way. So then we settled with getting her a story book instead.
A new problem arised from that. We didn't know which book she would want and which she already had. We spent two hours looking for the right book for her to read. After that we settled with Brinsinger but we didn't know if she had the first two books of the Eragon trilogy. So we bought her the set with the three books in hard cover. If she already had them, we were so screwed because the thing costs quite a lot. We got LP to chip in some $ to pay for it as well.
Then on Tuesday, the "Kalumpang" group and Jonathan went to Pyramid to celebrate Alexis's birthday. Even though were late by two days, still its better than nothing! I gave her the present that me, Han Sen, Jonathan and LP got her and thankfully she didn't have it yet so it was worth the cost. We went to watch Madagascar 2 because she and some of the other group members hadn't watched it yet. Even though it's the second time I watched it, it was still hilarious ahaaha! When that was done and deal, we went to have lunch at Wendy's and it was delicious. We got Alexis a brownie cake as her birthday cake and sang the birthday song for her there.
Everyone decided to go to college then to have some fun around the place. I went to take my results that day and boy, was that a mistake. My results were kind of disappointing and it made me go through depression the whole day. But Alexis cheered me up a little by playing some songs on the guitar and giving me a guitar lesson to take my mind off the disappointment. After that, she sent me home and I just went ahead and rest the whole day sleeping it off in my room.
And that was the end of my outings for now. There's still four more outings coming soon for November so I'll update you on those next time.
