Dracula's Wanted to be loved too....


I saw this movie, "forgetting sarah marshall" few weeks ago, just can't seem to forget this song.
The song reminds of people how everything has a feeling, sad, joyous, angry.....

Even dracula himself have a feeling too...

p.s. Felt like sharing to you, the last part very touching !

LYRICS:

It's getting kind of hard to believe things are going to get better
I've been drowning too long to believe that the tide's going to turn
And I've been living too hard to believe things are going to get easier now
I'm still trying to shake off the pain of the lessons I've learned

And if I see Van Helsing, I swear to the Lord I will slay him
Ah-ha-ha-ha
He'd take you from me, but I swear, I won't let it be so
Ah-ha-ha-ha
Blood will run down his face when he is decapitated
Ah
His head on my mantle is how I will let this world know, how much I love you

Die, die, die
I can't...

De Javu......



TODAY, marks the enrollment day of malaysia public university. MY sister "luckily"manage to stuck her feet into UTM KL, frankly, we really thought she dont stand a chance to go for the university she applied, but lady luck manage to shine on her at a nick of time, i'm still confuse with the subject {industrial design} though. BUT, i really feel proud for her relentless role for being persistent in going into the university she ask for, for that i wish she can manage to explore fond memories in her 3 years in UTM-KL branch.
LIKE I DID !!!

we reach there around 10am, and the crowd is already there, and from the looks of the parents, seems like everyone is not in H1N1 mood. frankly, it was hot and sweaty. and people were getting grumpy with the long wait.....

her scholl compaund was not as big as i expected, but at least she manage to get her self a campus area.

looks kinda like my secondary school, don't you think ?

should be the building she take her class.

ALL THIS, reminds me of the 1st day when i was in her age, doing degree at UM.....frankly, i still can recall the vivid scene of freshie orientation, the sweat and fond memmories....=)

we were a bunch of very very naive freshie who have no idea what the heck the seniors is in store for us, i can still recall the stupid roar-call we have to make to impress the rest of the other college, that was the 1st time i was being being punish squatting "IN" the longkang for being SLEEPY during the orientation, and heck ! it was 5am in the morning !!!

BUT, overall the orientation did gave me a very significant impact in my university life, i really can assure you. your not going to fulfill your UNI life wothout going through orientation....all i'm hopping now is that my sister get to go through this ALIVE ......=)

in my university years, one thing i really felt fullfilling is actually meeting my friends there, they really made my 3 years university life overthere super exciting, most of us known each other long before university !!!

This is the bunch of FRENZ = CRAZY + EXCITING








the original roomies of (SK 2-5)














OUR group of frinds grew bigger and bigger, and eventually, we bonded well. With every passing minute of your university life, u realize you've just met a bunch of life long buddies...







my philosophy in UNI is :

LEARN TO HAVE FUN !

&

IT'S ALWAYS FUN TO LEARN !

this is the words that kept me doing what i believing, and their existence throgh the process makes me even enjoying !









we've been thorugh more than 3 years of friends, not consider a very long time,
but indeed enjoying !









The start of my sister enrollment in her university brings fond memories we used to have, the good, the bad, the crazy, and the unforgettable. it really is nice to have this buddies around me, and i appreciate their existence beside me. Eventhough, all of us are apart now, i still cherish the ties we've made, and hopefull that this frindship bonds well in our coming future =)

Malaysia meets America...


IT was just a while i've left my blogs unattended...and this is what i get ??? tons and tons of cobwebs....well, gota admit, i really did'nt get anything uploaded here for quite a while. i've been occupied with some of the medical check up for my US exchange program. OH, ya i for got to get those updated. well, where do i start ?


Frankly, i'm still thrill about the whole program, eventually the US have this program called the the global Ugrad program, this is the 2nd time they take candidate from education institution from various university in any field. candidates are supposed to take on academic courses and conduct comunity service in the US, student will be enrolled in the university chosen, and take on a 6 months or 1 year culture exchange experience. this program allows student to take on the role to share their experience over at the states to their fellow friends at malaysia. for more details, you can check on. http://www.macee.org.my/05_14_content.html
organizing body, MACEE


BACK at UM, we have 3 candidates who will be going to US by mid august, AND, we knew each other long before we applied for this program. talk about CHANCE !

and the best thing is, i get to know an EX-Ugrader who've been to US. she really tiped us a lot about the program, she guided us about the program, and gave us very very informative resources. i was a bit confuse when they told us about the prigram, she came in a nick of time that saves us plenty of trouble. THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH KHAI SHING....!

and talk about coincident ! i was informed that i'm going to the same university as her ! un-oficially, she's actually my senior ! check out her blog, she got plenty of nice photo about the university !


and just so you know, i'm going to University of Alabama, Huntsville.

and where is Alabama ? all i can tell u it's in between or giorgia and mississpi. =)



, specifically here !

Team Building Alabama, and my university is "IN" HUNTSVILLE.

and this is how the university looks like
(*note: pictures courtesy of Khaishing, thanks ya. hope u dun mind i used some of this picture from your blog)


and probably, i will be attending classes here. (business administartion building)


and just so you know, UAH is very near to NASA space centre.

coool....

with all this excitement, one cannot forget the incident going on now in US, frankly, i've praying hard that it wont affect much.....haiz...for all the timing.....y H1N1 had to come now....why.....???


and this is the reason i've been running here and there this week. multiple injection wounds at my arm now, vacination and blood check.....damn troublesome...but for the good of everyone out there. we might want to prepare for the worst, .....and i'm heading to the worst hit countries.....

let's hope this wont happen....

The coke way of life.




COCA-cola have been one of the most successfull drinks ever developed in the business of consumer beverage, it's history and company culture drive people more and more to this kind of drinks. Undeniably, Coke have now dominate the beverage market, not even pepsi-cola can stand in it's way.

a quote from one of the director manager of COKE:

" coke will soon replace the daily drinks of any man and woman"

Frankly, i found it scarry, imagine opening your fridge just to realize everything is nothing but coke....eventually water cooler will be spilling out coke hot and cold....what a nightmare...

As a company that have sustain more than 100years, just like it's fellow giants siemens and general electrics, we cannot help but agree that coke have run a long way, just to reach this point. seems like nothing can actually slow this giant down. I've read an article that reserach on all those mega-corp (most of them US), even if you burn down all their factories and company of coca-cola, their company will rise from the ashes and start all-over again in 1 night. This is how strong tehir sompany are, having said that, this is actually how all the giant company works, they make sure their people live up to the spirit of coke, and live with it. No wonder Coke was never seen as a weaker apponent in the beverage industry. and here are some figures to prove my point.

2008 Financial Highlights:
1, Portfolio includes 13 billion dollar brands.
2, Unit case volume grew 5% to 23.7 billion unit cases worldwi de.
3, Net operating revenues grew 11% to $31.9 billion.
4, More than 70% of our net operating revenues and more than 75% of our unit case volume were generated outside of North America.

However, despite the healthy growth and sustainable remarks in this industry, we cannot help but admit that coke does reflect some health disorder issues. the picture below will clear what i'm gona said, sugar content of diffrent food you consume everyday.





healthy high fibre oat cereal - 1 cube sugar content









Prego spaggheti sos - 1.5 cube sugar content









Pineapple - 2.5 cube sugar content









Watermellon - 4.5 cube sugar content








Orange - 6 cube sugar content









Concentrated Orange juice - 12 cube sugar content







COKE 330ml - 10 cube sugar content
COKE 600ml - 16.5 cube sugar content
COKE 1500ml - 27.5 cube sugar content

with all the fuss about coke causing diebetic and blood clog, one cannot help but to think it's logic. 

YES, coke is an incredible company that produce drinks that dominates the taste buds of our own, but. 

NO, it is not suitable to make it an everyday drinks that can replace your daily H2O. and i can't imagine if that happens. 

After finish this posting, i cant help but to take a picture of my "personal" coke legacy, (it's not that i hate coke, i drink coke once a while), and heck ! it's still taste great ! 




p.s.
i manage to collect most of this can from ASIA, like japan, thailand, hong-kong, and China. i'm desperately exploring my way to collect all this coke can from around the world. my friends find it easy to get me a souvenior, a COKE is enough to make me satisfy.....=)  

   
   

Why Godzilla ???


 
THIS is obviously not me, it's just that i felt sad for this guy here. after stomping into cinema years ago, he is now sunk among those forgotten cinema block buster...sad, when you can see superman returns, batman returns, even spidey returns... NO godzilla's return...SO, as one of the hard core fan of this godzilla-epic, i've name my 1st blog after this guy, a salute to your city wrecking, man eating and heart pounding in the godzilla trilogy.

Here i am, starting a blog to show some part of my life's journey. hoping some one will notice this little guy here can get some attention from my friends in differnt parts of the world....i start blogging to prove 3 things:

1st, WHO says I cannot blog, here i am now, moving my baby step to prove those people out there. Anyone can blog.

2nd WHO says you have to hang out (not that i hate it, i'm a pure mamak guy) to get all yourself up to date among your social network ???
 
3rd WHO says you cannot blog in english & chinese ? 我先在就用华语, 跟你聊聊...我趁今答应过一个"小虾妹 "我是一个真真实实的马来西亚华人 , 讲华语, 吃华人炒饭 !!! blogging 吧了吗....没问题 !!!

let's hope that i can do all this in my coming future. so, for my beloved frinds out there, let me try my very best to tell all about the good and bad about myself, all i need is your love and support in any of my posting.....and hope you can undersatnd my not-so-accurate english and chinese.

And, before i forget...i'm Alan Chong from Malaysia, your gona "explore" more about me in my coming post....
