A NEWBIE TO THE WORLD OF BLOGGING

First Post
Saturday, 29 March 2008

Alright, this is my first post of my blog and first time blogging . I guess everyone introduce themselves in their first post. I am a high school student, 16 years old female who lives in Penang, Malaysia. I have a small family, mom, dad and a brother(27 years old and married). Me and my brother are like 11 years of difference in age. Sure I'm quite lonely in the family but still it's a happy family (like the card game).

To be honest to all the readers, the purpose of writing this blog is to improve my English. So, I think many of you do not like to read a blog which full of grammar mistakes or broken English(including myself) although I'm having that very same problem. I speak Hokkien at home and I hate reading storybooks. However, that's not really my biggest problem, the thing is I don't really like to speak in English and I'm lazy to put my effort into it. So, after much thinking, since I like to type so much, I decided to blog. At first, like most people, I have no idea of what to blog. I guess the easies topic to blog is to blog about your life( which is the most boring for me). Still..there's nothing much I can do about it.

Anyway, stop all that nonsense. Let's start the real blogging.

Today, I'm suppose to go praying for Qing Ming. Qing Ming is a festival where the Buddhist people pray their ancestors. I went to pray my grandmother and my grandfather from my father's side today. But first my family and I went to pray my grandfather first. Luckily, my grandfather was cremated. So, we just need to pray him inside one of the columbarium in Penang (at Mount Erskin). However, we need to pray my grandmother under the hot, morning sun because my grandmother was buried in the cemetery opposite my grandfather's columbarium. We reached home around 3pm. So tiring...

My aunt and my cousin from Pahang too had came back today for the Qing Ming festival. So, after getting some sleep, I went out again to pray my greatgrandmother in Teluk Kumbar with my relatives at around 5pm and immediately after that, we went visiting my another aunt in Batu Ferringhi. In the end, I reached home at 11pm. My bed was the first thing I had thought of...and so sleepiness stopped me from doing other things. ZZZZZZZZ......sweet dream...

2nd Day of Qing Ming
Sunday, 30 March 2008

Again, woke up at 8am this morning. No,yesterday was earlier! I woke up around 7 something. I guessed yesterday night I slept soundly.Well, today me and my family went praying my grandmother and grandfather from my mother's side instead. Fortunately, my family and I do not need to go to two difference places to pray because both my grandmother and grandfather were buried at the same cemetery lot. But to get there is another thing. We need to climb up a very steep hill to get there. Actually, I could have followed my cousin up there with a motorcycle but I was determined to push myself to the limit. I breathed hard when I reached at the cemetery (haiz, stubborn....).

After praying, went home. Reached home around 11am and I slept until 4pm. What had happened to me??...sleep, sleep and sleep. After eating the food that had brought back from praying, my computer was the next thing I had been facing till now 11.26pm. Felt like not going school tomorrow. Let's see what happens tomorrow.
