things never seem to go right for me for the whole duration of my trimester break.

GIMME ME A (REAL) BREAK!

drove to genting highlands to send my brothers back and then stayed for 2 nights there with gek suan, huwi yin and jin yew. had so much fun with my 2 pet sis, especially the part where i disturb/bully huwi yin to the point that the injury i picked up at redang island recurred. had some problems with the payment of our hotel rooms and i'm still working on to settle it. i brought gek suan into the casino for a so-called-tour while jin yew and huwi yin waited outside. jin yew did try his luck to enter by persuading the guard since his 21st birthday was just months away, but failed. both of them had a chance when a large group of chinese tourists enter the casino while the guard was busy attending to an indian couple (talk about racial harmony in a sentence!). they could've just sneak in without the guard noticing, but they decided otherwise. futhermore, we were on our way to dinner! anyway, gek suan first entry to the casino cleared her doubts about something. apparently, she heard rumours about people throwing candies under the table to feed "those" things, but in fact, only the wrappers are found.

while in the casino, i got to see my brothers at work. somehow, it made my heart sank. i mean, they had to enter the job market at such an early age and their future seems bleak. i really don't know what other options are available for them with their spm results. i was never close to my brothers but i do care for them, albeit not obvious. ask my close friends, and they will tell you that i don't seem to give a damn about my brothers. even the way we talk with each other was like 2 friends fighting. things got a little bit better since they started working, perhaps they started to view things differently and gotten more sense of responsibility.

the 2nd day of the trip coincide with the release of my exam results. i asked ching yin to check for me, since she offered, though at first i wanted to check it on my own on my return to melaka. i knew beforehand that i was going to fail one of my subjects, so it didn't came as a surprise to me when her sms confirmed it. nor did the news spoil my mood for the day. i probably won't be seeing mischievous huwi yin for a further four months after the trip so i might as well savour the moment. gonna miss her soon...

on another note, i'm getting frustrated at waiting for my new computer to arrive. it's been 2 months, and the vendor keeps delaying it. besides, it wasn't my idea to purchase from this particular vendor, he's a friend of my dad. wiyang was right, the disadvantage of buying stuff from a close friend is that you can't really scold them for fear of hurting their feelings. it might be different if he's my friend though. i might have threaten to cancel the order, when it's ready to be delivered. just to serve him a lesson. *evil grin* then again, i might not be that evil. it's seriously getting on my nerves. we'll see what happens when he delivers it this coming monday, or so he promised.
