My Virgin Fishing Trip!


Last Saturday, I should have gone for a football game! However, I went for my virgin fishing trip instead! I'm still glad that the badgers have won another match against Michigan! I heard that the badgers lost to Michigan last year, but we came back with the score 40 something over 20 something! (Sorry about the confusion of the scores!)

Let's start with my fishing trip! My dad might be mad when he found out that I went fishing. I remember when he asked me to hoop on his boat for over ten years! But, I never follow his wish! Sorry daddy!


Met up with Boon Lee, Sam, Deb and K.C. at Memorial Union! Hui Chin and I were a little bit late, sorry for that!



After seeing a few road kills and missing the junction, we finally arrived at Century Trout Farm!



We were warmly welcomed by Goofy the friendliest dog!



We were really excited to become fishers! Once we stepped on trout's farm, we walked directly to the pond!




Again, we were welcomed by two beautiful white swans! Though they were pretty, they weren't friendly at all! Don't go too close to them as they will break your fingers! lol



Before we started to fish the fishy! We set up table for our fishy picnic.....



Mark, who is the owner of the farm, came with his green truck which excites me! Guess what, I did not drive the truck! I would want to do so if I could!



Mark explained the ways in becoming a fisher!



Let's start Kia Tzun's fishing lesson!

1st: Use worms as your baits!



2nd: Break them into three or more parts (So that you can make more baits! Cheapskate!)



3rd: Hook your baits!



4rd: Throw it out to the pond and patiently wait for the STUPID fish to get hooked!




5th: If you're lucky enough, you will get to catch a fish in just a few seconds!



6th: The most disgusting and violence part of fishing is to unhook the fish! You will need to pull it out if the hook is way inside the fishy's body! EWWWWWWWW



7th: Then, put the fishy into a pail which is filled with water!



8th: The last step, clean the inert part of the fishy and you're ready to cook it!



I really need to thank Deb for frying the fishy! It tasted really good!




We had other dishes as well, the vegetable curry, Mexican fried rice, dumplings, potatoes salad, and of course the fresh fried fishy!


After having such wonderful lunch! It was time for cam whoring!

I found this petite tree interesting! It's like a small size of Christmas tree!




Then, I found a really gargantuan one!




Besides, dogs, cats and swans! They have horses as well!




The swans and I...........




Leaning on a tree...............




Pondering beside the magnificent lake...............



To conclude my virgin fishing trip:


Sam caught three fishes!



Hui Chin caught three fishes



I caught three fishes!



Boon Lee Fam caught three fishes ( She caught her first one after 8 attempts!)



And the winner goes to K.C. who caught 25 fishes! A round of applause to K.C.!



A group picture with Max and Deb!



I had a good time fishing in Fall season which the weather was just nice! Thanks Boon Lee Fam for inviting me for the trip! Thanks Deb for the dishes and the ride! And thanks Max for cleaning the fishes and teaching us ways to fish!


I'm loving my life in Madison..........................

Halloween! Freak Fest at Mad City!


Halloween 2009 at Mad City! Before I start writing my blog, let me introduce the history of Halloween. The name Halloween is a short way of saying All Hallow's Eve, the night before All Saints' Day. The rest of the history, you guys can just google it!

Can't wait to share my eye opening Halloween experiences here in Madison.


First Station: The Haunted House!

Unlike Haunted Houses in Malaysia, Haunted House in Madison is far better even though it was organized by college students. The make up, environment, theme, and the most importantly -- GHOST-- are unbeatable! I did not realize that I can take pictures of it! Therefore, I could only manage to take some of it! (Its actually two pictures!)


The theme was the crazy laboratory of H1N1!


Poor thing, she was sacrificed for the sake of Haman's health!



This guy is more to Zombie than Ghost!


Just look at the probes and make up, Madison students are awesome!


The highlight: Freak Fest at Mad Town 2009!

The annual Freak Fest had finally come, thank goodness! Before coming to the States, I heard rumors from the seniors about the craziness things happened in this event!

Everyone is expected to dress up for this event! Well, in such a hurry, I couldn't find a suitable costume for myself. Thus, I decided to put some make up on my face!

And here's how the story goes..................

A handsome, hot young man was found dead in his house.....



He was murdered by his EVIL HOUSEMATE who envies his prettiness and 'handsomeness'!

You can see his evil housemate laughing after killing this poor young man.



When this young was still alive, he loved party! Even though, he's dead, he still wanna go for party!

Freak Fest 2009! You won't miss it even if your dead!



People with bizarre costumes withdrawing money for the tickets!



Queuing up to enter State Street. Gosh, I need to pay 7 dollars to walk on State Street! Can you believe that?



Once, the poor dead young man entered tot he party, He found all his long lost friends!

If you still remember your childhood bedtime stories, you should know them! Mr Wollie and Mr Yakkie! (If I did not spell their names wrongly!)



Next, we have the teenage mutant ninja turtles! I'm not sure if they are still in their teens!



I don't have Play Station, I don't have Nintendo Wii! But I still like Super Mario!



This world is magical!

I met Ron and Harry, they were looking for Professor Dumbledore.....



Here he is! He's just too magical! Even when I took a picture with him, the background just gone blur!




With just one click, Professor Dumbledore transformed into a mushroom man! (I love this costume!)



With another click, the mushroom man became the President of the United States - Obama!



We should have a pause on magical world, let us move on to the cartoons and movies world!


Scooby DooBie Doobie Where are you.......



I don't think you will have the chance to see Saw and Snow White both in a scene!



A representative from Sesame Street! Cookie Monster!



Bugs Bunny! Where's your carrot!



Monster INC............



No beauties! But we have the beast!



Go Spartanssssssssssssssss



The incredibles!



Scissors man! Ow... I miss this movie!



The Simpsons Family! But I could only find Homer!


The big bad Wolf! Beware of the wolf little red riding hood!



Last but not least, My idol! KENNY from SOUTH PARK!



Let's move on to the "Sexay" world!


Just look at their long long legs!



It was freaking below 1 degree! I wonder how they could stand such freezing weather!



I'll kill myself if I have a maid like him or her! wauahahahahahahaha



A naked hot country singer! (Again, can someone please tell me how they could stand in such cold weather?)



Time for the innovative nominees............


The pinkish Flamingos!



The gargantuan walking skeleton!



The walking TI 9 Calculator!



Unknown!



My long lost friend who faced the same inccident!



The pumpkin man!



The guy who has just gotten back from taufan!


The road blocks!



The hateful H1N1 virus and the likeful nurse!



The poor chopped headed man!



Walking facebook!



The naked guy who is going to face........ (scroll down).................




Jesus on judgement day! wuahahahahahahahahahahaha



And the best innovative costume award goes to the Police Officers! Wait a minute, their are the real cops!




We had Third Eye Blind performing for the freak fest! Rock to hell!



There were over 44000 people on state street celebrating halloween! WOW! AWESOME!



Met up with Seniors and Inti friends!



Another group picture of the Malaysians!



I had another great and awesome night at FreakFest! It was truly eye opening which I won't get to experience it if I'm not in Madison! Now, I truly understand the meaning of MAD TOWN! MADISON ROCKS!


HAPPY HALLOWEEN TO EVERYONE!

Raya cum Mooncake Festival 2009 !h



My first time celebrating Raya and Mooncake festival in Madison.

Thought it will be lonely for this festivals due to the absent of my family and friends. However, I managed to make my life here as interesting as possible!


Raya in Madison!

MSA ( Malaysian Student Association ) had organized a Raya celebration
n here in Madison! Since we have quite a big number or Malaysian Students here, all of us
gathered and celebrated Raya joyfully!

On our way to celebrate raya....


Meet Up with other Malaysians......



Meeting up with MORE Malaysians..............



In the Auditorium........



I can't believe that I can get Satay here in the States...... YEAH!



More desserts.......... yummy!



Air Bandung? Izzit!!!!! Correct me if I'm wrong!



Other dishes...... Curry beef, chicken, ketupat.... and etc



I'm satisfied with all the home-cooked food! Thanks Seniors!



Had A Blast Raya with Seniors and fellow Malaysians...............



Shopping Trip with a scrumptious lunch!

It was mooncake festival, I decided to threat myself better ! I went shopping and had a really fine lunch at Chilis!

I was wondering how different Chilis in Madison in comparison to Chilis in Malaysia! They should serve the same dishes! I was hoping to get my all time favorite dish - Lamb Shoulder serve with mouth watering Mash Potatoes.

Sadly, I did not see lamb Shoulder in the menu! I ordered Fried Steak since I have never tried this before!



I was just lucky to get extra fries because the waiter actually made an mistake in my orders!



A ZOOOOOOooooooom in view of my fried Steak!



Hui Chin ordered hmm..... I can;t remember the name of this dish but its fish!



In Malaysia, My friend and I always order Chocolate Molten Cake for dessert! This time here in Madison, I ordered White chocolate which we can't get in Malaysia! Taste heavenly!



Jom pergi Shopping.................. my initially plan was to get winter clothing! I changed once I stepped into Arbercombie & Fitch outlet!






I need to go shopping once again to get my winter clothing! Seriously! I need winter clothing!


Mooncake Festival!

I seriously miss my mum cook for sure! Back in Malaysia, my mum will cook a full table of delicious food to celebrate mooncake Festival! Then, we will perform our family tradition which is performing a virtual praying ceremony for the Moon! Then it will be my favorite time - playing lantern! Kids will play with their lantern and adults will grab their chance to chit chat with each other.

In Madison, I won't have the luxury life anymore! I won't get my food in just a moan of hunger!

However, thanks to senior! I felt like home during the celebration!


Before, we entered the auditorium!



Taking pictures with juniors!



My hair is just too oily! Ewwwwwwwwww



When we entered into the auditorium, the lights were off!

Such a beautiful scene with colorful lanterns!



Whit Ni, the talented girl who can make brownies! wuahahahahahahahaha



Even though, we are in the states, we can still get mookcake! I still prefer Malysia's mooncake! Especially the pandan flavor! Can someone send me some mooncakes from Malaysia?



Well I think that's all for this entry! I should stuck my head with my homework now!


月亮圆,月亮圆, 月亮照在我的家 。。。。。。

祝大家 中秋节 快了 !


Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Fitri kepada kawan-kawanku !

Aloha People.....


When was my last post again? May 18??? Sorry for such a LATE LATE post!

With much consideration, I believe all of my friends will understand how busy I was for the past few months. For now, I'm sure I'll have a long one for this time. Hmm...... where should I start? There are just zillions of happening events occurred and it will be hard for me to state out every single thing! Let's start with the most significant event.......


On 21st of August, I faced a turn of my life. The day had finally come.......


Leaving my home, leaving my parents, leaving my family, leaving my friends and leaving all the great fun have weaken me thoroughly. Not being pessimist here, but this sort of sour feeling will only arise when you're in the situation.

Before I left Sandakan, Vivian came back just in time! We met at the airport and hang along for a while because I was going to board in just ten minutes! Poor thing, she just CRIED! Yupe, I said it out again! wuahahahahahah




Before I left Kualu Lumpur, I got the chance to meet my cousin: Susan see san! wuahahahaha



Thanks Yapp, Ade, Hing, Jaye and Alex for sending me off! You guys are forever my besties!

Thanks for the shoe as well! Although, it implies you guys really want me to go as soon as possible!


Next up, My parents and younger brother! I will be missing my daddy and mummy a lot for sure! Again, my mum cried !



Five us were flying to Madison, Wisconsin and Obviously, I was the only Guy!


It is time to say bye bye to all my beloved family members and friends........



12 freaking hours later.............................


At last, we arrived at not United States but Frankfurt, Germany. Wow, I have never thought of going or even standing on the ground of Germany!




Do Germans gamble a lot? My first time seeing a Casino in an International Airport! Interesting!




After staying 5 short hours at Frankfurt, off we go to the Chicago, United States.




Instead of taking MAS, we took United Airlines! OMG, their seats are much MUCH MUCH spacious than MAS's seats. In addition, they kept on offering food and drinks unlike MAS who will only give (With Black Faces) when you ask for it!



Since Hui Chin and I share the same surname, we always get to sit together! The Wong's Power!


Another 10 more hours later...........................

Well guys, I did not take any pictures at Chicago Airport because all of us were in a rush, rushing for our next flight to Madison, Wisconsin.


Another 45 minutes from Chicago to Madison.........................


FINALLY, I arrived at Madison Wisconsin! From the airport, we went straight to our apartment to have a good sleep.

Messy.........




The next morning after a good sleep, we went out perambulating around the town area.....




We were thinking and pondering deeply of what to have for our very FIRST breakfast at Madison!


At last, we decided to try Bagels....

Different Flavor of Bagels..................



Guys, you should try this ! Taste splendidly nice with begals!




Next stop: Lake Mendota! The view is breath taking..............




It is time to register for my orientation program!



Join the University Tour....... Another breath taking view of Lake Mendota! The Lake is HUGE!



Welcome to the college of Engineering!



The Statue of Abraham Lincoln, rumor says that by touching Lincoln's Shoe before taking any exam will bring good luck to the students.



After a hectic day walking around campus, it is time for dinner!



After dinner, it is time to go out of the room and experience the environment of UW - party school!

Govind and I wenr Overture hall to watch some performances, and the funniest one would be the hypnotising show! I laughed out loud till everyone looked and stared at me~


Then, we went to watch some sexy and Hot dance! the Hawaiian dance......

Some guys were asked to joined the dancer shaking their butts!



Next up: Memorial unioin! There were all sorts of activities going on..... icluding karoake Session!



After listening to all these 'noises' ( Joking ), we decided to hop on a free boat riding around Lake Mendota.




Jonathan and Me.......! I can't really see the view of the lake because it was too DARK!



The guy who was supposedly to lead us was drunk! Dangerous!



For video game lovers, this is the time for you to shine!



Biscuits...... smells nice ......... scrumptious





The next day.................


Convocation




I bet there are more than 10000 of new students for year 2009.........



My Ex I phone....... I used it for five days and I get a full refund after returning.....




After all the orientation and activities.............


I am now officially a Badger and I'm an UW Undergraduate Student.....




And the most important thing is------------ I'm in the United States...... wow
