Cupcake Model 2009

This week has been an interesting one. Miss came up with the idea to have a Cupcake Model competition and the winner is selected based on the number of votes that is received from the students as well as the staffs. Here are the candidates:

Contestant No. 1: Pek Wan


Contestant No. 2: Soong Seng


Contestant No. 3: Kang Wei


The winner would get a cash prize of RM50. Hey, that's a lot of money to get just to stand and say cheese in front of the camera!

Voters don't drop from the sky so intensive marketing is essential to get votes. Look at the faces of the 'judges' below. It's only RM1 per vote to determine your winner!


Going from class to class, floor by floor to gain support from everyone. The response was good.

So what do the voters get? Nobody will vote if there's no benefit so there were four lucky draws to be given out (2 from the Vote-In Box and another 2 from the Vote-Out Box). The more the voters vote, the higher their chance is to win a cash prize of RM20! Just imagine if you only vote once and get called out for the lucky draw, you would gain RM19 for doing nothing! There is no such thing as free money but our four lucky draw winners can said otherwise!

Another two lucky dudes were Haresh and Choke (a student from the Hotel Programme)

The most interesting part next was the crowning of Cupcake Model 2009.

And the winner is...

The semester has come to an end. I will miss you all!!

Surreality

Another semester is coming to its end and finals is drawing near. I haven't even read a page of my notes. It's still so surreal that the term is ending and I am using the excuse of me still being in shock and could not start revising anytime soon. Procrastination has been a close relative of mine. It is here to stay and I can never get over it. It's sad, I know.

Time to get my not so beauty sleep. Good night.

Broken toenail

The thunderstorm yesterday morning had caused Crystle to have an accident. She bled. At first we had no idea where the blood came from and we checked everywhere but could not find any wounded area. Not until just now, when I was rechecking for the wound that I found the source of all the blood stains on tiles.

It was her broken toenail. The nail is nowhere to be found and the quick is now exposed and looking so vulnerable. I have washed and dripped some antiseptic medicine onto the wouded part but now she is treating me like an enemy, running and hiding away from my sight. I came across this article when I was browsing for first aid to broken dog toenails and it's pretty useful.

She is now licking her wounded paw and I know it must be painful. If I have the car, I would send her to the vet right now.

UPDATE:

Had sent Crystle to the vet and she has to take some medications. Get well soon, honey.

Babes from high school

The friends that you make in high school are the very people you will always remember even though you have gone to college and have met a new set of friends. Some of them are back in town and we met up.

It's never boring to talk about our school life although the topic is repeated year after year since we graduated from high school.

A little bit blurry as this was snapped by one of the waiters in Black Canyon. Anyway, thanks Mr. Waiter!

Everyone who has seen these pictures thought that I work at Jusco. One even thought that I had become the manager of Jusco. Haha, very funny, Shatirah! If it is so, I will choose to drop out from college right now.

Nando's Peri-peri Chicken

I was browsing through my phone photos to see which ones I can delete (disadvantage of a phone without a memory card) and then realized that I planned to blogged about the following pictures which I found (snapped during my KL trip on the 14th June) but forgot about it when I came back to Ipoh.

Food from Nando's (first time dining there)


Peri-peri Chicken, Meditteranean Rice and Country Style fries


Two out of four type of sauces. Tasted sourish.

It's July and exam is in less than three weeks. I don't know whether to feel excited of nervous.

Transformers 2 is worth watching!

Things do not always work the way we want them to be. Sometimes, the opposite of what we hoped for becomes the reality instead. No matter how things turn out, I feel that the consequence would be something that is as a valuable as a lesson for us to ponder on.

Bro, you might not be reading this but I just want to let you know that what happened today happened for a reason. There's a significance to it that God's trying to show you. Look on the brighter side, you just experienced something new today.

I wasn't anticipating Transformers 2 that much since I haven't even watched the first part. Sometimes, you will need to watch the second part to know if the first part is good or not. Now I am going to watch the first part to see what I have missed. I had a great time of lunch and movie with my fellow college mates and we should do that more often (when H1N1 is no longer an issue). Oh and thanks so much for the ride home, Nick. =)

Bumblebee is so, so adorable!! Especially the part when he cried when Sam was leaving for college/university (see how short-term memory greatly affects me?).

R.I.P.s

Most of the people are paying tribute to Michael Jackson for all that he had done. What is the use of a tribute if these were the same people that ridiculed him during his lifetime? I quote from Khairul, "It's human nature." Yeah, it's human nature to be hypocrites. The world is so full of them. Maybe I am one without realizing it myself. Okay, I shall stop condemning others since nobody is perfect.

I am not a huge fan of MJ but his sudden demise is a shock to the world. Mr. Jackson, rest in peace.

Speaking of death, another terrapin of mine died. It's been 12 years so I guess it died of old age. May you rest in peace.

When too many pets had died, the tears no longer flow as I have learnt to accept that death is inevitable and crying would never bring them back.
