My First Short Story

I want to give a preview on my first short story that I'm going to post maybe after my SPM exam which is the huge end of the year exam for seniors in high school, who I am, which is a senior.

This is inspired from what I heard from my mom which she heard from the news.

Preview:

  It was reaching nighttime, and Grandpa Lee's stomach growled. He hasn't eaten anything for the rest of the afternoon. He started to smell fresh bread from a short distance and went after it.

  

  He stopped at a bakery and smelled the fresh made bread in the freezing air. He took his wallet out with his frozen and shaking hands; and stared at it. The money he had was enough, but he was afraid that he would be lost for more than a few days. If it was true, he will not have enough money to survive if he kept spending it without thought.

  He carefully counted his money, and with that in mind, he pushed open the glass door of the bakery. And he was welcomed by the ringing bell above the door and a young girl at the counter.

  He took a few of the cheapest bread his found and put it on his tray.

SPM result day

March 3, 2015: This day is when high school graduates from the year 2014 is going to ride in an emotional rollercoaster ride. Like how it's written in the title, it's the SPM result day.

It's not really March 3, right now. I took a lot of time to make this post but I guess it's better late than never! haha

I'm too one of the students getting their results. Before the huge day, there's a 2 month gap in between that I spent panicking that my results are going to be awful. I don't want a lot of As, I gave up that hope a long time ago.

All I wanted was to pass the SPM and get good results in the subjects that I really enjoy doing for the past high school years. If I don't, I'm going to disappoint myself.

So I didn't went on the fancy stage to get my results like my friends, Rebecca and Moon. I also made a fool of myself because I got too excited and screamed when my friends' names were called, someone even called me crazy.

I did fine, if I have to say so myself. It's not full of As like some pals of mine but I got 4 in 11 subjects also I passed all. Yippie!

After that, went to have a little celebration with my bunch to a movie with an old friend. Saw the new Jackie Chan film, Dragon Blade; it was not bad, I quite enjoy it. Laughed a bit at some scenes I shouldn't have because of some comments, but well, good show.

That's probably it, I actually had a list of things that I wanted to put up but it didn't seem fitting. Ciao~

After Exams

After high school exams and graduation, I have no clue on what to do. I can't go out as I wish, since my house is under renovation and the fact that my parents doesn't let me go out as much, so I'll have to stay in most of the time. Also, the fact that I do not have my driver license yet is the main reason why I can't go and get a part-time job. In Malaysia, the legal age to obtain a licence is 17, stated by Wikipedia. Unlike most countries, that the legal age is at 16.

My parents will only let me find a part-time job when I have my driver's licence is because they thought that when I have a job, I won't have the time to get a driver's licence. And if I do have a job, my mom will have to give me a ride back and fro so it'll make her easily tired out.

So I asked myself, what would I do with all this spare time in the house? There's no way I'm doing chores, maybe once in a while. Seeing that I missed a lot of movies, shows, and anime these passed few years; I think it's time to do some catching up, wouldn't that be nice?

As for updating my blog... I really have no exciting lifestyle, if I can find something good to write about, I'll definitely come back. But for now, I'm a mood for a movie marathon.

Be right here when I come back. :)

Reserving a Buffet

The view from Sky Bar in Luna Bar. Pacific Regency Hotel

Today I went to Kuala Lumpur with my dad to reserve a buffet for an upcoming family gathering. Yep, this is no fun and games. (haha) In this family gathering, we get to do it in a fancy Sky Bar in a fancy hotel. We only get this chance because we dad got some coupons for it and no one wants it whenever he tried to give it away. Basically, we didn't really have a choice. Also, he used the excuse that he wanted to celebrate the return of my cousin that is studying in Australia. (woohoo, shoutout!)

I actually went there once but I never knew there was a Sky Bar, so I was quite fascinated. Before we went upstairs to the Sky Bar, we had to go through a bar the was beside the pool (a pool bar). Me and my dad walked all fancy-like with boosted up confidence; we're not used to dine in a fancy hotel or restaurant and the Sky Bar was a lot classier than the rest so we felt like rich people (haha).

The Sky Bar was quite nice, a little hot for my liking, then I remembered we're in Malaysia so I was okay with it. The scenery was nice, though. The hotel was situated in the middle of Malaysia's landmark, with the KLCC's side right infront of us and the KL Tower right behind the bar, which is the entrance to the KL Tower.

The food choices were kinda plain. I don't know about everyone else, but to me, a menu that only contains pizza, chips, alcohol and other small snacks are not the best choices to put in a buffet. We were having a family gathering, consisting of 20-something people, and for dinner, so that's not enough. We My dad kinda argued a little bit to the waitress there because we wanted something more but she doesn't seem like she understood us. But in the end we finally got the buffet menu that was for 30 people.

That's kinda it, a small post for an update. Hope you enjoyed, and I don't really meet my relatives so much so I'm actually looking forward to it. :)
