This day is the Chinese New Year, and we got up early to visit my uncle house nearby. After that, we went to grandpa house for lunch and waited my aunty to arrive. After their arrival, we went to the restaurant which we usually go for dinner. After dinner, I went out with my friends to Xclamation for gathering.

In the gathering, I met a lot of my friends and took some pictures with them. Around 10pm, we went to a friend house for some chit chatting. Looking at the clock and we realised that it's already 12am and we went home. On the journey back to a friend house, my friend's car brokedown due to the car had overheated. Four of us, all girls, seem to be helpless and not knowing what to do. Luckily, there were two policemen passby and help us checked out the car and waited for a friend to carry water for us. This incident cause me went home late and worried my dad. We were glad that there were nothing bad happen to us.

This is the second day for Chinese New Year. I waited for my friend to come over my house. After dinner at home, they reached my house and we talk for some while. Then, we all went to a friend who stay nearby my house for a visit. In her house, we suggested to pay a visit to a teacher. Around 3-4pm, we went to the teacher's house and talked for 2-3 hours.

After dinner, I called my friend out to yam cha. But she already had another gathering with friends, so I replace with my primary classmate. Surprisingly, My friend called me out and didn't go out with her friends. So, I just went to Xclamation to meet my friend.

At Xclamation, I met some of my secondary and primary classmates. We had some drinks together. Around 11.30pm, I went home and watched tv.

Nothing much happen in this day. Around 11am, I went to my friend house to pay a visit cause I was invited by her the day before. We talked for few hours, then I went home to wait for my uncle come to my house. After my uncle went back to Ipoh, we went to grandpa house for dinner. Then, my friend came fetched me to my primary teacher's house. It's quite boring in the teacher house cause I had not much conversation with my teacher and all the while I was just listening only. My friend also sense that I was boring, so we asked to leave and he fetched me back to my home.

Seems like nobody besides my brother cold fetch me back Malacca, so I packed everything and went back Malacca with my brother. We start our journey around 2pm and along the way, the traffic was quite jam. When we reaching KL, my brother suggested to go through KL city and went to Malacca. So we got into the Jalan Duta Tol. When we going to reach the tol, my brother's car seems like in trouble which was moving extremely slow like the car had no battery. Once we stopped at the tol, the car was stopped and cannot be started. The tol people close the terminal immediately and a guy volunteer to help us push the car at the side. Then we called our sister-in-law for help. When he reached the tol, my brother's car can started again, so he suggested us to go to his house at Cheras.

On the way to go to his house, my brother's car again stop moving and not even can be started. Then there was this Indian guy stop his car in front of us and said that he helped us to tow the car to a place which is quite far distance. He towed our car and we saw our sister-in-law stopped his car in front, so we ask to stop the towing. Then, my sister-in-law and the Indian guy had some conversation and they checked the car. They found that the car's filter was spoiled and cannot be used and the battery charger was not in function which lead to the dead of the battery. So, they exchange my sister-in-law's car battery with my brother one and we continued our way to my sister-in-law house.

When we reached his house, we went to Carrefour to buy the battery and he said that battery enough to reach Tampin without on the air-cond and light. So, we stay overnight at his house and went to Tampin the next day.

Early morning after breakfast, my brother and I drove the car to Tampin by following my sister-in-law's car. When we reached Tampin, we got ourselve rest while waiting for my aunty to fetch me to Malacca. After dinner with my aunty and uncle, they fetch me back to my hostel.


Those are the days which is really make me worry bout my education. During the one week holiday, I did nothing for my assignment and I not even start a chapter for my midterm paper.

Today, I suppose to go to KL hunt for my prom night dress. But I didn't go. I just didn't feel like going anywhere all of the sudden.
