| Happy New Year everyone!
Saw in the new year away from home for the first time, so I broke the tradition of being at the Curve for new years which was where I was for the past 3 or 4 years. No rooftops and foam spray this year but new years eve was interesting none the less. Got a little messed up later in the night, but this is because Jon London applied for philosophy and maths and not philosophy and music at university. He claims anyway in his New Years Eve state of mind.
Been on Christmas break for slightly over two weeks but couldnt go to Paris because of Eurostar hold ups in the channel tunnel. Bit of a bummer seeing how we spent nearly a whole day at Ebbsfleet where theres no heating excpet in the toilets so passengers took turns going into the toilets to lean against the radiator. Well I did anyway (: Spent the rest of the time with my family in a hotel near hyde park where we looked at some london attractions including the Imperial war museum (yay) and tate modern (yayy!) and spent good quality family time together. 2009 went by really quickly, was my first proper year away from home, having spend more months away from home than back there. Started the year with lots of snow in february and ended it also with lots of snow in December. Wasnt so fun the second time round though. Had lots of work in between, coursework and uni apps - unfortunately I have carried forward some of the undone work into the new year. Well we shall see if things work out differently this year. Hopefully I'll learn to sort myself out to make the IB exams in May not so painful. I also turned 18 in 2009 which was exciting - but not really since the only time Ive been asked to produce ID was on new years eve but I only had my malaysian IC with me, and who knows why our birth dates arent stated on it but I had to explain how the IC number works, and my first 6 digits are 911201 which sorts of translates to 1/12/91 but in the end the lady gave up and all was good. Meanwhile, I am off skiing next week with Anthony et. al. to Italy where I will put my skiing skills to the test. Slightly worrying. | | |

So school's over and my family's here for the Christmas holidays. Lots of snow last night and my brothers are making snowmen and other snow things outtside but I am keeping warm under the covers. Being a bit of an old Scrooge but its so cold!! Merry Christmas everyone =D

Im not doing anything for Halloween but my aunt and uncle, whom Im staying with already bought their supply of candy to hand out tonight. If kids did come by anyway. Ive only been trick or treating once ever. And carved fruit and vegetable twice. The second time round we placed the pumpkins around the garden for this newspaper feature that was being done bout halloween and stuff. And then we killed and mutilated an atlas moth chrysalis unintentionally and I guess we never did anything for Halloween again after that.
Going back to school tomorrow. Have been on holiday for 2 weeks now and its been good. There were days where I slept more hours than I spend awake because I didnt have much to do. Watched a couple of movies (7 actually) because I always download them and never have time to watch them in school. Lesbian Vampire Killers (saw the trailer for this in the cinema some time ago) was the worst. Pretty pointless movie with no plot and the vampires were killed so effortlessly and spewed white goo when they were stabbed or when they had their heads cut off. GIH international evening coming up on the 13th. We're doing Ancient egypt/persia this year.
Xanga screws up in school so I dont update all that much. Good luck to those sitting for exams in malaysia. Im going home in March =D | | |
| Have been so incredibly busy the past couple of weeks to update. Well we're back at school, feels like we've never left for summer really. Went to thorpe park (day before EE due. bleh) which was fun, met the new L6, did lots of coursework, celebreated claudia's birthday yesterday.
Was nice to get out for a while. Am also out this weekend, because the last thing I want now is to spend sunday sitting in my room working. | | |
| My dad brought home a clump of snake eggs today. Found them somewhere when he went to his orchard. I never new they had hard shells, way harder than chicken eggs. And that they clumped together weirdly. The eggs didnt contain snakes anymore. They've hatched, though the shells dont fall apart when they do. 
The little slits where the baby snakes come out of.
Mmm..
