I am in the assistant creative division of the READING LAW (pronounced as Red-ding) programme. If there are any potential youngsters reading this who are interested in joining the Reading programme, please, I urge, STAY AWAY from creative division of the debate team. Its NOT WORTH IT.. repeat again after me NOT WORTH IT!!
1) You have the 2nd most jobs to do after the president himself/herself
2) You have to stay back until late in the night, alone, or with only a friend or two. Yep, that's right, last night I was stuck in school with only Samantha (head of creative div) till 8 pm, while the President and the lecturers all went back home at 6pm. Thank God I met another good friend who willingly offered a helping hand and is not in the programme at all.
3) On the debate day itself, YOU will also be working. A lot.
4) You have a particular lecturer breathing down your neck the whole day, constantly 'suggesting' changes the last minute, mostly after you've done with all the work. I won't name names, but she's Reading's Land Law lecturer. *cough**cough*
Actually I wouldn't be so pissed off at the job because I know it comes with a lot of responsibilites. But if it wasn't for the fact that EVEN the president can leave earlier than his subordinates, furthermore, a lecturer who would just leave her students alone in a dark school, well then, I have nothing more to say.
Just taking off some steam here from the super hectic three days I've been having. Another 2 more days to go and I will be done with the whole bloody thing!
Bought my first suit today at The Curve. Got the whole black blazer and black trousers thing and lovin' it. Eh, actually I'm so shocked, I never knew that buying working clothes were so expensive!! I was hoping to find reasonably good-looking clothes for RM25-40, since I can find a reasonably good-looking plain shirt for RM10. But wtf, female working clothes are so expensive. the cheapest was RM50, and that was shit ugly. I thought I could find better bargains what with the Mega Sales going on but to no avail.
Ok, that's enough for today. Got an intereting topic I plan to blog after this whole thing is done with some time soon.

Kuantan Beach (III)
Kuantan has some of the best beach sceneries in Malaysia, not comparing it with islands.
I woke at at 6am in the morning, on a Sunday nevertheless to see the sunrise. They have a McDonald's at the beach which is really convenient, as you can have breakfast while watching the sunrise. As my super 'soi' luck would have it though, I never saw the sunrise because it was cloudy that day.......
But I still managed to spot some interesting Kuantan culture when I was there too:
There were about 8 or so people buried under sand
This is called 'sand yoga'. Apparently its very therapeutic.
They do this every sunday morning at 6 am~! Almost everyone brings along their own huge-sized metal spade, and digs a hole for himself/herself, then your friend helps to bury you under the sand. Just another great Kuantan lifestyle of spending time with your loved ones. ^_^
I miss Kuantan already. The day before I went swimming in the sea with Anchovy 'frolicking' with the waves. Below are even more pictures I uploaded on Bubbleshare. Might take a while to load coz I uploaded quite a lot

Kuantan Food (II)
The night I arrived at Kuantan Anchovy's dad, Uncle Leong, brought us out to eat seafood at Mr.Specky's Tom Yam. Kuantan is quite famous for their seafood. One of the dishes I really enjoyed there was 'Stuffed Crab'. So unique!! How come we don't have this in KL?
I cannot tahan and ate half of it first before taking a photo.Basically what they do is use only the main body of the crab, fill the inside with crab paste, and probably deep fry.
Even though the shop's name was Mr.Specky, I never actually saw Mr.Specky himself.
Another unique food in Kuantan is the Jeli Ais Kacang. Literally. There is jelly at the bottom of the ice kacang. They only serve it in one store in Kuantan at the beach called Song Fatt. Sure can spot coz they put up the sign Jeli Ais Kacang underneath the name.
You must also squeeze the 'limau' over it before you eat. It taste OK only for me, but its nice to try something different.
For breakfast, the Leong family brought me to this place where the pan mee is super famous. Forgot the name of the stall, but if you want to eat pan mee in Kuantan, most people will definitely mention this place ^_^
Uncle told me that just last week at this store, there was a customer who brought his whole family out to eat there. But because it is always mega-packed, service was slow. The customer got so angry, he started yelling at the boss for being so slow and overturned his table in front of everyone. No manners! Unfortunately for him there was a newspaper reporter eating his pan mee there at the same time and reported it in the newspaper the next day. Really padan muka (slap his own face back) . Haiya, next time slow service just yell at the boss for being so slow and shout "I will never come back here again!" enough already. No need to show your pathetic ability of overturning tables.
This dish is called "lai liu ha" in cantonese. Direct english translation: Pee in pants prawn
Damn nice seafood dish though. Do prawns really can pee though?
There's another food I didn't take a picture of but its soooooo deliiicciouss~~!! You can never really eat enough, and its a fish curry puff~! First time I've tasted other filings in curry puffs except for the usual potato & egg. Next time anyone who goes Kuantan must buy a fish cury puff. Cheap & worth it!

On the shores of Kuantan (I)
Over the weekend, I went to a little town in Pahang called Kuantan. Ok, Kuantan wasn't sooo little. Before that, I always thought that Kuantan and Pahang were just two different states in Malaysia. It was only on the bus trip there from Pudu Raya bus station did I understand, that no, Kuantan is the CAPITAL of Pahang.
And in answering your question, yes, I am going to blog about food later on!
In Kuantan I stayed over at Anchovy's (my roomie!) house. The Leong family are very nice and friendly people. Their children also have a lot of 'interesting' hobbies. It mostly consist of collections of different sorts.
One of them is collecting old vodka bottles. Anchovy reserved a whole shelf in a cupboard for collecting them. The KAMPAI red christmas bottle in the centre of the picture is a limited edition vodka bottle from last year's chritmas.
Their 2nd collection consist of a whole row of (eaten) sweet boxes. They have brands from Mentos, Smint, & other brands all arranged in rainbow colours.
But seriously, if I told you I collected Gardenia bread plastic price tags............ would you believe me?
A jar 1/3 full of Gardenia plastic price tags
