[[Hot News!! Hot News!!]]
Perhatian!! Perhatian!! Bagi yg mau membeli Kijang Innova..... BEWARE!!!
Berikut ini ada sharing dari seorang kawan kita pemakai mobil berbandrol TOYOTA KIJANG INNOVA. Jhonny (kawan kita) baru saja membeli mobil gres TOYOTA KIJANG thn 2005 pada akhir februari lalu. Sehari setelah sampai dirumah tgl 15-2-2005, dengan riangnya sang istri menyambut kedatangan mobil baru tersebut, alhasil mobil tersebut dicoba bersama sang anak. Namun anehnya mobil tersebut tidak seperti yang diharapkan oleh sang istri; mobil tersebut mengalami gangguan mesin yang sangat fatal yaitu mobil tersebut tidak dapat dilakukan pindah gigi dari 1 menuju ke gigi 2, maka yang terjadi mobil tsb loncat ke gigi 3.
Besoknya sang istri bersama Jhonny pergi ke salah satu bengkel Auto 2000 yang terdekat (bengkel resmi), dengan berasumsi mobil tersebut masih dalam masa garansi. Tetapi pada waktu kawan kita complain ke mekaniknya, dengan mengatakan bahwa mobil tsb tidak bisa pindah ke gigi 2 dan langsung ke gigi 3, sang mekanik(cecep, kepala montir) hanya bengong dan tidak merespon sambil mengerjakan mobil lainnya. Kesal dan geram menjadi satu seketika itu juga saat montir tersebut terus tidak acuh. Merasa dicuekin akhirnya kawan kita membentak montir tersebut dan minta penjelasan mengapa di bengkel sebesar ini (Auto2000) konsumen diacuhkan complainnya, maka dengan muka sedikit bersabar serta tanpa dosa sang montir mengatakan itu sudah resiko bapak memilih kijang. Kontan saja Jhonny makin naik darah. "Kan bapak sudah tahu", lanjutnya karena di tv serta di koran juga sudah dijelaskan kalau kijang MEMANG TIADA DUA-NYA ...... (jadi dari gigi ke 1 langsung ke gigi ke 3, 4 dan 5) He....he...he..serius amat bacanya.
Huehuehue... gimana?? Masih mau beli Kijang Innova?? (^3^)v

And they say.....
First week of school should not be dat busy.. but mine?? A whole lotz of homework, reading to do. Urgh!! I'm already stressed out even it's not midterm/end of the term yet. Huh!!
Well... juz read thru Ddee's new entry.. found out dat it's interesting about some of the tests in Blogthings. Made up my mind to spend a couple of min to try it [even I have lotzz of hw] Huehue... =)
Mee french name: Leala Renault. Sounds odd to me, but I think it's okay though. Heuheue.. Here's another one... [thx to Ddee.. ^_^]
Mee birth date means:
Your birthday suggests that you are a good organizer and manager, an energetic and dependable worker; attributes often showing success in the business world [waks!! dis is so not true lar..]. Serious and sincere, you have the patience and determination necessary to accomplish a great deal [Yep.. i'm serious.. hueheu]. Your approach can be original, but often rigid and stubborn [haha.. I AM stubborn]. Sensitivity may be present, but feeling are likely to be repressed. You are good with detail and insist on accuracy, but at times scatter energies.You're a practical thinker, but not without imagination. You love travel and don't like to live alone [hohoho... juz like Ddee said.. free tix free tix, we both love travel. Hehe]. You should probably marry early, for responsibility is necessary for your stability [haha.. marry early? how early? I'm still single ler.. heuheue ('.^)v].
Gosh.. some of this are true though, but urm... I'm still not in the stage of understanding myself thoroughly. Hehe..
Well.. I took almost all the tests, but I'm not going to post them all here.. Hehe... Eniwei.. I better get going now.. need to start studying.. Hehe... =)

Wat a tiring & fun day I had yesterday. Haha... Went to Tutor/ Lab Assistant Meeting at 9 am. We talked about a lot of things, sthg related to tutoring. Then, two professors come in and made a presentation on "Race, Sex, and Culture". It was really a good presentation. I bet everyone likes the presentation. =) Eniwei.. the meeting ended at 4 pm, yes.. it was a 7-hour meeting [wif 1 hour lunch break]. We had a baby shower for our Lab Supervisor after the meeting. She got a lot of cute presents for her almost-born baby girl. Hehe... ^__^
After the baby shower, some of us [6 of us exactly] went for a bowling session. Haha.. and.. yup.. it was my first time playing bowling. Haha.. dun know how to "throw" or "roll" the ball, heuheuhe... my cuzz and one of my frens taught me, and actually someone [i didn know who is she] taught me too.. I think she is a pro-bowler. So.. there goes my first bowling. Hehe.. Actually [not be too proud], I did a rather good job too [had couple of strikes, hehe] though the ball slids rather than it's supposed to roll. Haha... I got a 88 on the first game, and 86 on the second game. They didn believe that that was my first time playing bowling.. they said I was bluffing. Hehe.. Guess, it was only my luck. I told them there wont be a third time. Haha... Eniwei.. I really had fun playing bowling with them. We played around 2 hours and then got home. Huehuehe... I want to learn how to play like a pro. Haha.. [i'm dreaming...]
Oh well... juz had a chat with my fren who's just came back from Melb. She went to Melb. to prepare her Uni thingies, and she is sick rite now.. Aww!! Jo, hope u get well soon yah! ('.^)v And.... I'm off rite now.. kinda tired rite now [went for a swim with my cuz this evening. hehe..]. Will c ya guyz....

Actually.. I juz spent ard 1 hour on the previous post. Hahaha... wat a slow writer!! I wonder how long I would take on this post. Hehehe... Let's the story continues..... Saturday...
Spent almost half of my day at home; surfing the internet, chatting, and reading some Harry Potter. Hehe.. Had my lunch ard 3 pm, continued reading my Harry Potter, and get ready at 4 pm as I was going to the free concert of GARBAGE with my cousin n frenz. Jiyeon & her friend, picked us up at ard 16:30, and we're getting ready for the concert at Underground Atlanta [downtown, ard 45-60 mins drive]. Hehe.. I wasn't too excited going there, but i nvr been such event b4, so I went. Huehue... know wat!? only 'bout 10 mins after we got in the car, it rained!! Yes raining..... it's heavy rain!! I was like.. thinking.. how are we supposed to watch the concert [outside concert] since it's raining. And so.. we arrived at the parking lot at 17:45, walked to the outside, and.... *...whoa...* we walked in the rain [apparently, this's not a romantic scene, haha]. The concert was not starting until it's around 6 pm. There were actually 4 other bands before the big gig GARBAGE showed up at 21:30. Oh well... I was standing in front of a closed shop and trying to 'hide' from the rain whereas my cousin n Jiyeon stood like really close to the stage. Haha.. guess they r too excited about the concert. Finally, the rain stopped at around 7 pm, and then I stood with my cousin n fren. So, I was also like really close to the stage. Haha... But, the whole concert was really loud... I mean of course it's loud, it's GARBAGE concert!! Hehe... i was just.. urm... not prefer to this kind of genre. Haha.. =p I was standing almost all the time, and the concert ended ard 11 pm. Whew!! I was so darn tired man, and I almost couldnt open my eyes during half of the GARBAGE concert. Got home at ard 12.15 in the morning, brushed my teeth, took a short-quick bath, and then went to sleep. Ah... finally I could rest, I told myself. Hehe... and guess wat!! I didn even had my dinner or supper.. Hahaha... only had my lunch at 3 in the afternoon. Guess how much of calories I'm going to lose. Huehuehuheu..... Sunday...
woke up at around 10 am [haha, wat a nice sleep i had yesterday], had my bath, breakfast [only 5 dumplings], and then get ready to Six Flags [It's amusement park, ard 1 hour drive from my place] wif my cousins and their mom. Arrived there at around 12.30 pm, and guess wat!? It's so HOT over there since it's still summer. Urgh!! I could feel that my skin is already burnt. U can see really really a lot of ppl going to Six Flags. Tsk.. tsk.. I've nvr been there b4, so this was my first time. Haha... Went on my first roller coaster ride of the day with my cousin. It's called THE GEORGIA SCORCHER - Put Your Feet To The Fire on one of the Southeast's tallest and fastest stand-up roller coasters. The Georgia Scorcher, Six Flags' eighth roller coaster, combines standard roller coaster technology with a twist - riders stand, not sit, as they blaze through loops, high speed spirals and a figure eight that produces up to four Gs. I dun even know how this ride gonna looks like, and I just waiting there in the line with my cousin. Haha.. I was getting scared and nervous, and finally... it's our turn. I got in the ride, tried to buckle up [it's like seat belt], but guess wat!!! I couldnt buckle up myself.. argh!!! i was getting soo nervous; I tried it again and again, fortunately.. it worked. After all checked... the ride started to move... and it's time for me to close my eyes. Haha.. I was always scared of riding roller coasters 'coz it makes me feel that I can fall off [*duh*], and of course it makes me feel sick too. Hehe.. So.. here it goes... I was really really scared that I was actually praying "Amithofo". Dun laugh at me guys.. I mean.. I'm really scared! Didnt know how long the ride took, but I felt it's taking sooo long and keep thinking why it hadnt stopped yet. Hehe... Finally, it moved a lil slower, and I tried to open my eyes, wondering if we actually had stopped. I was closing my eyes all the time, having this feeling that i was gonna fall off, and when I opened my eyes, there was a bit of tears around my eyes. Haha.. not that i'm crying, but i guess i closed my eyes too tight. Hahaha... Then, walked through the exit with my cousin, I can barely walk coz I could feel that my legs were shaking a bit. Hahaha... I felt a lil' dizzy and sick, but fortunately I'm still fine. Hehe.. =D
We continued walking [lookin for ride that was not so thrilling again], taking pictures, and finally we 'landed' our feet at THUNDER RIVER. It's a white-water rafting adventure through roaring rapids. Guess wat!! When the raft turned exactly below the waterfall, it was me and my cousin who sat right exactly below the waterfall, and *byurrr.....* there we go.. really soaking wet. Haha.. and the others were, of course, wet too, but not as wet as we did. Oh man.. I was like taking a bath; my whole body was really wet.. i mean WET.. from top of my head until my shoes, and I could feel the water inside my shoes. Haha... It's fun though. Thot dat we were already this wet, we went on for another 'water ride'. Hehe.. SPLASHWATER FALLS - A water adventure that transports 20-passenger boats over a 50-foot waterfall. Though it's not as wet as the first water ride, it was as well fun too. Hue hue..
Then, we went on for other rides like GO-CART, DODGE CITY BUMPER CARS, MONSTER PLANTATION, GREAT GASP [A 20-story parachute drop], and DAHLONEGA MINE TRAIN. Guess those were the 8-rides that we had yesterday.
Oh well, we went home at 7.30 pm, and as we walked to the parking lot, I juz realised that my skin is darker compare to my skin b4 I came. Oh my god!! I've been 'burnt'. Hiks hiks... argh... I'm darker rite now.. [bagaimana tidak.. 7 jam berada di bawah terik matahari]. Yikes!! =[ Well... well... we were all so hungry rite then as we didnt have our lunch, and hoping to get home soon so that we could have our dinner, but guess wat. TRAFFIC JAM!!!! Oh man.... we were stuck on the road for about 1 and a half hour, 'coz of some perbaikan jalan. Not only that, it was also raining heavily. Urgh!!!! Supposedly, we could get home at prolly ard 20:15, but then we arrived home at 21:30. Urgh!! Then, I ate Indomie - special chicken flavor. Ah... felt good! Haha... After finishing my indomie, I washed my shoes as it was wet [though it's already dry when i got home], had my bath and then slept at 12 midnite. Hehe... Planned to swim with my cousin at around 8 am the next day, but guess wat! When the alarm went off this mornin, I switched it off coz I was still feeling sleepy. Haha... Tak jadi berenang deh... Hehe... Oh well... I'm about to off rite now.. feel a bit tired after 2 and a half hour of writing these entries.. Hahaha... It's 6 pm rite now. Talk to u guys later... Chao.......

Ellow ya'll.. how's everybody weekend, eh!? Fun? Interesting? Bored? Bla bla bla?? Mine was superb, haha.. never been dat 'busy' on my weekend. ho ho ho.. Wanna know what have I done during my weekend? Here it goes...
Went to the IPA [International Peer Assistant] meeting, where all the new IPAs, the current IPAs/team leader and the supervisors got together. I must say, I really enjoy this meeting. We started our meeting by introducing ourselves [name, which campus we attend, & the reason why u join the IPA]. I met a lot of different ppl there, some came from Ecuador, Trinidad, Mexico, Kenya, S.Korea, Vietnam, and lots more. We get to know each other and some special things about each other. Haha... [It's our IPAs' secrets]. Then, the supervisors talked about what is the IPA, what are our commitments to the IPA program, and lots more. Here come the interesting parts: 'GAMES.' We played 3 games: walk in other ppl's shoes, blind-folded, and creating a building. Firstly, we took off our own shoes and make a circle with them. Then, we sat at the floor, talked about our feelings when we first came to United States/GPC [our college], bla bla bla.. Finally, the supervisor told us to pick any shoe [dun pick ur own shoe] and wore it. Hehe.. some even got the guy's shoe. The supervisor asked how do we feel walking in others' shoes. She even asked whether we can tell the personality of the person from juz looking at the shoe. Haha.. really fun.
The 2nd game: we are divided into 2 groups. Group 1 in one side, and group 2 in the opposite side. Get ur partner and blindfold ur partner. So.. here it goes, a person in group 1 is going to take his/her partner [group 2] for a walk around the field and vice versa. U cant touch ur partner, u only can give direction to ur partner so that she/he wont bump into something. One thing I learn from this game is TRUST & RESPONSIBILITY. U have to trust ur partner, who's giving u the directions, and the one who is giving the directions have to responsible of his/her partner. In other words, u have to take care of ur partner. We played around 20-30 mins, and all of us have fun. But, I have to admit... it's really hot outside. Haha... [it's still summer over here].
The 3rd game: We got 3 groups [Clarkston campus, Dunwoody campus, Lawrenceville campus], and we have to build a new campus of our own with all the stuffs in the box in juz 20 mins. Wat's in the box? We got papers, paper clips, straws, & some decorating stuffs. Here.. u can see all the creativities coming out from us. Haha... It's really a lot of fun making our own campus. Hehe.. Things I learn: TEAM WORK.
So after ard 5 hours of getting together, the supervisor ended the meeting by throwing a 'ball' of thread to one of us, and we have to share our feelings [wat we feel 'bout this meeting]. The 'ball' went on and on to each of us, thus when u looked at it.. it's like a web linking all of us. Hehe.. So.. those were my special, fun, exciting experience of the day. Haha...
Whoa... *scrolling up* it's already this long?? Haha.. I guess I'll juz continue my entries on other post.. Hehe.. I'll be BACK!!!

[[It's RAINing...]]
Finished watching Korean mini series 16 episodes of "Full House" [again, I muz say]. Haha... This time finished watching it only 2 days with my dearie cousin Jennie. Muz really really admit that I like this drama soooo much, esp. the scenes couple of Yong-jae & Zhi-en. I can't resist the cutie-ness of Yong-jae. Huahuahua..... Muz also admit the good script writer too, who can think of such a good drama [kinda of 'xiao-xiao' ard the first half of the episodes and then start getting serious at the end of the story]. Bravo!!! Bravo!!!
Oh well... it's time for me to sleep already 'coz I gotta wake up early tomorrow. I have an IPA meeting to attend, and I'm really looking forward attending it. Hehe... =) Chao guys...
