DIY iPod Cover

Have you ever felt that no one sells very nice covers for iPod and only for iPhone? Want a cheap way to have nice cases without splurging on buying them online? Well, here's the tutorial for you. This is my first tutorial so I hope i can give very clear instructions so all you people can enjoy your beautiful iPod cases . My camera died so I had to use the iPad. Sorry for the unclear pictures. Also, don't be discouraged if you have an iPhone, iPad, or any other devices actually. This is a very simple DIY that can be applied to all devices. You just need the clear case (according to your device, of course) and the right measurements. Lets get started! Here's the stuff you need:

1)Pencil
2)Scissors
3)A design that you want as an iPod cover. (make sure it is in portrait or not the full picture wont fit! Unless you want the design to be landscape ) I printed my design on Microsoft Power Point. The slide is in landscape and 3 pictures should fit side by side. Its okay if there are extra's.

4)A clear casing. I got mine for RM10 at my local night market. Sadly, I only have this one but it works just as fine. Make sure is has sides that grip onto the edges of your iPod. I recommend you get a silicon one. It's much better and it protects your iPod too!

5) Your iPod (of course) (i can see my iPad lol)

 

Now, lets get onto making! First you would want to lay your iPod face down against your desired picture. Then, use a pencil and draw around the ipod. 

Remove the iPod and cut out the design. Don't worry, we'll draw in the holes for the charger, speaker, ear phones later. 

 After you cut it out, place the design into your clear case. Make sure you face the design inwards. (the white surface facing you). Fit the design in properly and don't worry if you see any folds. push the design gently against the casing, flip it around and draw the outline of the camera hole and whatever hole there is on the cover with a pencil.tle tricky. 

Take the design back out, and cut out all the holes. Its optional if you want to cut out holes for the volume and power button. I choose to not do it. The camera hole is a little tricky. Fold the part of the camera hole gently without making any lines on the design, cut a small hole big enough for your scissors to fit through and cut out the hole.

After you are done cutting all the holes, put the design back into the cover but this time, put your iPod too. Yes, you're done. Now, isn't that simple? Now, since you made your design, you don't have to repeat all these steps to make a new one. Just use the one you have and draw the outlines. Enjoy all the purdy designs you'll be making. Don't be surprised if your friends ask you where you get your casing. ;) Here's my other designs. (I'm a major swiftie if you guys didn't notice.)

*blows dust*

So, how long has it been? 3-4 months? Well, its because my internet got blocked and i have to study for PMR. But the good news is, ITS OVER! ITS FINALLY OVER! I CAN PLAY! Therefore, from today on wards, i will be on hardcore play mode until next year. Here's a summary of what i have been up to lately.

Forget it, i forgot what i did the past three months. all i know is that i had trials, flunked it, studied like a mad cow and i just finished my PMR today.Me and my friends had pizza for lunch. Yeah. Well, i have many activities to look forward to after this. There is this Petroscience trip that I'm going with my science teacher and friends. Then there's a gathering at my Primary School for children's day. Then there's another outing with primary school friends at ou, then theres a trip to go to Gua Tempurung and Lost World of Tambun at the end of the month. Then, it's school holiday until next year.

I'm thinking of having a part-time job somewhere to spend time. And maybe start an online business selling bracelets. Also, I'm planning of cutting up white shirts and dye them. What? My mom doesn't really let me buy clothes as much so might as well make my own. That is all i have for now. I have the day off tomorrow while the other people who take Chinese have to suffer MUAHAHAHAHAHAAHH! I'm evil. Bye.

Hi, Me Zombie.

Okay, first to say is that it has been 3 months since I update my blog. One, I'm busy. Two, I'm lazy. And three, nahh there's just two. So I'm BACK and I'm going to write about my Sports Day!

Woke up at 5:30 and arrived at the stadium at 6:45am. Got the marchers ready with the bows, caps, face paint and gloves. And guess who's our mascot? ITS IRON MAN EVERYBODY! We got on the track at around 7 and started marching at 7:30. Our solute was awesome and our Iron man bonded with the other house mascots like Yellow house's Spongebob, Blue house's Cinderella, and Green house's Ninja Turtle and Tinkerbell. We did the usual hoohah and the principle's speech was very long. When it ended, there was a sigh of relief.

After that, i don't really have anything particular to do. So i just walked around the stadium with Carlotte and Carissa then found Samantha and Yin Eang. After that, we all raced to the milo truck and attacked until Mr Mah decided that if no one ran for it, no one gets milo. And we took orders for the teachers. So we went back to the truck many many times. Then the guy suspected me for coming back so many times. Mr. Mah then took a box cover and loaded it with cups of milo and served the teachers. He handed me the tray so ever since that, I just an back and forth serving milo to the teachers around the stadium, the St. John members runners and Quarter Master's members. I served more than a hundred cups of milo with the help of my friends of course. The teachers faces when we gave them the milo is priceless.

When the truck ran out of milo, we had nothing to do already so i just hanged around the stadium and took stupid pictures with friends. After that i took Elizabeth's camera and snap pictures of the runners of the 4x400m race. Being on the field was a really great experience. Giving the runners support and all. And also helping the St. John fan the exhausted runners.

At around 1pm, the sports day officially ended and Red House was officially announced the winner. We  were all very happy and personally, I think we all wouldn't win if Khai Hann didn't help us, support us, be there for us. I swear, he was the best Manager red house could ever have. I also admire his bravery/ determination. He dare to walk into Diva (a girl's accessory shop)and bought hair ties for the girl marchers. I  don't know any other guy that would dare walk in there alone without the company of a girl. Just imagine the stares he got from the sales ladies at the store. Ng Khai Hann, I salute you man! You did your ultimate best.

After sports day, I followed Carissa home. And had a very fun time there. After i got out of the shower, Carissa wasn't in her room and when i walked out the door i had the shock of my life. Her brother shirtless outside. And i wasn't even wearing my glasses and wondering what on earth is that *squints eyes* HOLY BRIAN PUT ON A SHIRT LAH D': And he stil didn't wear a shirt until he bathed.And we had PIZZZAAAAAAAAAAAA and it rained and the power went out for a while and then cam back on so yeah. Discovered Brian's secret obsession for Miku Hatsune on his phone. And then stole his phone to take a picture and he chased me around the house. -.- I had to let go. He was squeezing my camera D:

Then yeah  he let me listen to a bunch of his favourite songs from Miku and watched tv and ruined Carissa and Brian's childhood. No thanks to Smosh and then I discovered that Brian and I share a love for Epic Rap Battles of History. GEEKS UNITE! And when their grandfather came home he pointed at me and Brian (we were sitting on the sofa staring at Miku videos, yeah) and had the weird face. Then Brian was like " She's Carissa friend." He doesn't seem to believe him so i said the same thing. I think he thought we were bf and gf. HELL NO WAY I WOULD DATE HIM. But staying at Carissa's house for 4 hours was fun. Having siblings is fun. I wish I had siblings. *starts ranting you don't have to know*. Then my mom came at 5 to pick me up then I went home.

That's pretty much how my day ended up like. Not much but it was fun. I promise i will update more often. Until then, see you in the next post :)

Must. Blog. Often.

As what the title says, I MUST BLOG MORE OFTEN! My blog is like, practically dead. So now, i shall update about 1) my visit to Clara's and 2) my trip to Bali. Okay? 1....2.....3.... GO!

On Tuesday, i visited Clara. Scheduled time of arrival is actually 11 but my dad wanted to go to work so i ended up arriving her house at 9. Phone convo:

Me: Yo, you awake yet?
Clara: yeah, just woke up. why?
Me: I'm ariving your house in a half hour.
Clara: wait. wait. WHAT?!
Me: Okay see you bye :D

Once i reached there, i was attacked by her cute dogs which really loves me then went upstairs to do nails. For 4 hours.  Then her mom drove us to OU for lunch. We actually walked while eating our so called lunch. We wanted to go to Diva to get some accessories we wanted and we saw Huey Ning, my wifey. The funny thing is, we see all the accessories online but when we go to the actual store, we can't find anything we want. Which is really stupid so okay. After that, we walked the entire mall and met a few other people. My first time trying Chatime that day. And stole a few macaroons from Clara.

Tried the Pearl Milk Tea. And it was AWESOME! 

 

The macaroons we bought. 

 

Cutest Tip jar ever. 

 

Got this Slap-on band.

 

And this necklace which my mom calls it a dog tag. Which IS'NT!

Now I shall talk about my trip to Bali! *le drumroll plays*

Arrived Bali at about 7 at night i think? The guy at the Imegration was not friendly. My dad's friends were just joking around and laughing and the guy was doing a death stare of some sort. Obviously we kept quiet. Then he questioned my dad in a very scary way. But we got over it. The guy is still very non-cheerful. Had dinner at the beach. Wind blew very strongly that my dinner nearly flew away. Luckily it didn't. Hanged around the beach then we head to the hotel which is Hard Rock Hotel. (yay)

Unfortunatly, the didn't have enough rooms. They only had 6 rooms available including 3 suites. So, my dad's boss's family (of 5) get to sleep in the Deluxe Suite which has a second floor (awesome!). I got the kids suite which can fit 2 adults and 2 children. I though the room will be quite small but it was huge. The manager of the hotel escorted me to the room and i was practically jumping and there is a PS3. YOU CAN PLAY GUITAR HERO! The manager is so nice to upgrade our rooms. We were suppose to have a normal room. He said that he would bring me the CD and i waited while jumping till midnight. Sadly ir didn't happen and i went to bed, falling asleep to Kim Kardashian ranting on E!

The next two days was mostly touring around the island. It is really cold up in the mountains. Reminds me of Gold Coast, Australia during inter in the mornings. omg. It is freezing! But i got over it. Some ladies who sell   oleh-oleh outside a restaurant kept asking me to buy their stuff. Convincing me with words such as "Tolong lah, saya takda wang. Tolong lah dik. Murahlah dik." And i shook my head till it becomes numb. I kept myself looking busy using my dad's friend's DSLR. :D Once the door of the bus opens, i ran as fast as i could. The ladies are scary. At lease 5 of them kept begging me to buy their stuff. I would but i got no money so yeah. And if i did buy the stuff, more of them would come my way and i would be in bigger trouble. I saw fat monkeys on the way downhill. They are so fat and furry i just want to jump out of the bus and hug them. Since we are traveling in bus, we can't stop for the monkeys. :( Then we passed a babi guling store, all my dad's chinese friends went and ate while the remaining of us sat in the bus and played around with the games in our phone/gadget. 

The second night's hotel was not really nice. They didn't even provide us shampoo. Luckily my mom brought some. The sea was rough so i couldn't get to see the dolphins the next morning. But, my dad won an iPad and i kept screaming "MINE!!!!" :D Then the whole gang went to a bar in town. While i drink on my juice, i observe the surroundings of the bar. I see a total of 5 drunk men, and 0 drunk women. I guy at the bar was so drunk he striped off his shirt and payed some hookers to have some shots with him. By the way, those hookers are ugly. The only reason the guy chose them is because their boobs are practically hanging outside their skimpy tops. 

The third night there, once again, because of the very kind manager at Hard Rock Hotel, he upgraded my room. And i FINALLY get to play Guitar Hero. I played it all night and slept on the ottom bunk of the double decker bed in the childrens room. Which was nice. Their internet dies 15 minutes before it's actual time to die which was stupid. But i had a fun nght in the hotel room. The next morning is the time we head to the airport and back for home. I will miss Bali, but i wouldn't really stay there for a really long time. Somehow certain people there scare me. But not as much as the people in Jakarta that appeared in the news the night before. 

I shall end my post here. It tok me about 2 weeks (?) to write this. The main cause is procrastination on the internet, and my distraction towards the iPad. Now, i finally finished this damn post. I talked too much. So, imma go now. Kthxbai. :)

Happy Leap Year guys!

Oh gosh. It has been one month since I updated something. School work is pilling up. Come to think of it, only now I think the school work is a lot because i do my homework everyday. Unlike the past two years, I literally lazed around and panic at the last minute. This Monday is the start of exams and honestly, I don't feel quite ready for it. My history, KH and Geography is really crappy. My other subjects, I don't really want to care about it. My aim is to get A for BM, BI, Geo, Sej (or maybe a B cause i suck loads) , Sivik, Art, Agama. I hope I can get better results for the others as well. If I get 6 A's I will get an iPod YAY! But must work hard. It's DO OR DIE!

Okay. The really exciting days recently is I met this new girl in Form 4 and she's like so nice. On "Friendship Day" she gave me a pair of ear rings and i only knew her for 2 months. I was really happy. THANKSLEKALEQAILOVEYOUMUAH! Okay. She and I have got along really well so you can consider us best friends. She really freaked me out yesterday (I won't mention it because i will suffer from a really terrible spasm kthxbai) SHOULD I OR SHOULD I NOT????!!! My first time omg what am i going to do? She already made reservations. I will so die. I am going to die. DIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIE. I'll go bang my head on the wall till it bleeds now k? k.

I think I am going to end it here. I really have to go injure my nervous system now. Toodles!

Rachel's CNY Steamboat party.

Yesterday night was by far the best night of my life. I assume I arrived the party a little late as everybody is already at the steamboat table eating. I gave them my packet of Onde-onde and headed into the house to eat. Everybody is already eating. Oh god i am super late. I ate quite alot. I guess then i watched Hazim and Kenny go head to head on Dance Dance Revolution. I am sad i don't own any game consoles. Really sad.

Hazim and Kenny is like ULTIMATELY GOOD on DDR. They got everything right man. Unbelievable. I tried a few rounds and failed terribly. Like even the slowest song i failed. Me and Charlotte both failed. Rachel didn't want to play. And I don't know what to step on. My gosh. Hazim helped at least. :)

Since everybody was darn tired from DDR, we switched games. Me and Rachel wanted to play Barbie. xD But we saw a better option: ALVIN AND THE CHIPMUNKS! But we didn't get to play it. We ended up playing this racing games which we all sucked at, except for Hazim. Rachel drives okay. Cgarlotte too. But me on the other hand, I was practically drunk driving. I keep banging the walls of the street. Some people from Vivian's group of friends sat around and watched while i continue banging the walls. They then ended up discussing about drinking and driving. They concluded that people shouldn't Drink AND Drive but Drink BEFORE you Drive. I know it's a stupid topic to discuss but it is kinda true. Dont listen to them. Booze will make you go mad. LIKE ME yesterday. Although i didn't drink any booze but i was drunk.

When one of Vivian's friend went home and has to bring his PS2 controller back, we played DDR again. This time it's Vivian's gang who played. Me, Rach, Char and Grace headed outside and cam whored. We climbed the wall, took some really funny pictures , laughed a little bit, took more pictures, laughed somemore, Hypered a whole lot. Then we saw Hazim and Rachel's mom walk out of the house. He is going to go home. :( Gonna miss him and his DDR mat. We all were so "drunk" that we decided to escort him home. We girls squeezed in the back seat laughing like mad woman. Once we got back to the house, took more pictures and promoted SHANDY! I was the cameraman.

Then later, one by one, people went home. I was the last of Rach's group to go home. But hey, it was really fun. I didn't want to go home. D: Rachel, you better have another party. Okay?

Chinese New Year 2012

This is by far, the best Chinese New Year celebration I have ever had. I skipped school on Friday so i could head back to Penang without getting caught in the jam. My dad had work to do so I accompanied my mom to go buy some Chinese New Year requirements.

The next day, we headed to the old house at Tok Aka Lane to clean it. My uncle livs there but the thing i don't get is how can the floor be so dirty that the first step i took in the house made my feet black. I swept the floor then headed to get the dustpan. Guess what, there is a huge spider web on it. Can you imagine? HE DIDN'T EVEN SWEEP THE FLOOR!!! Me, my mom, my maid and even my dad helped and clean the entire house while my grandmother bosses us around and cleans the prayer table. My lunch was Line Clear Nasi Kandar. My favorite dish squid eggs was in mine. :)

After 2 long days of cleaning, It's finally Chinese New Year. I get to wear my dress. Imma post a pic on fb if free. So lazy to describe my CNY so imma just post pictures. Oh, and i have a baby niece now. :3 Her name is Angel Tan. AHA SO CUTE!!!

was my youngest cousin last year. not anymore :D

Meet my niece! Angel!!!

Lol so bad larh. :3

Angel got a Princess angpao. :D

she is shoo adowable... :3

A proud daddy. :) He's effing buff o.o

Like mother, like daughter. 

Oh and i went there on 

I got a shirt. Is it nice? :)

Oh and i met up with Yun Teng on the third day of CNY. We shopped at Queensbay Mall and bought matching clothes. Then she followed me to my aunts new apartment. She pole danced. :D okay end of story. Bye!

First Saturday

Today is the 6th day of the new year and the first saturday of the year. On the 4th, school reopens and the horrors of form 3 welcomes me with open arms. I am officially form 3 this year. When i first arrived school, i saw the new form 1's and literally, they get shorter and shorter. But i also saw many of my fiends and gave them huge long hugs and asked how their holidays were. My class is on the top floor so this year, everyday will be climbing hell. Currently sitting behind Ee Lee and Jia Jing, beside Asuka and infront of Samantha and Yin Eang. I am surrounded by awesome awesome people. Since I am not so close to Charlotte and the gang anymore but we still talk. So it's cool right?

Since it is the new year, I'm going to make some resolutions.

1) Study every day. I have to do that because i want to feel prepared before the exam instead of panicking at the last minute. That always happens and I don't want that to happen anymore.

2) Get Straight A's for PMR. I don't want to let my parents down and i don't want to let myself down. I know i can do it. It's just that i have to work harder than i ever have. I am still thinking on whether I should take Chinese because if i do, i will not get an A and there goes my resolution. But i want to try, and make a difference, to prove that even though you are not studying in an Independent Chinese school, but in a Government school, you can take Chinese as a subject even though you don't receive that education in school. But I know I suck in the subject and can only speak it, so i don't think I will be taking Chinese. Too risky.

3) Become a better librarian. I think I am not a good enough of a librarian. I don't think I involve myself much. I want to become a better Librarian, a better role model, so that the juniors will learn how to be a good librarian, just like how i did from my lovely seniors. First, I have to be more hardworking on the newsletter. two, I have to update the librarian blog more. Three, Help plan the camp and the Annual Dinner.

4) Get top 20 (or 20+) in class. I actually achieved that last year but the term after that, I dropped. So this time, I am going to do better and maintain it no matter how challenging it may be. I have very bright student in  my class so this is going to be a little difficult but I'll try anyway.

5) Respect people more. I have disrespected alot of people last year and I have lots a few dear friends and i don't want that to happen again. I have to control my emotions, and to choose my words. And i also have to not rant about people online because people will misunderstand. I also have to respect my parents more because i have disobeyed them too many times last year. I don't want their heart to break again. I don't want them to be sad or angry because of my own wrong doing. I don't want that happening again.

6) Be Fit (and be Skinnier). I seriously have to get the kilo's off. My thighs are like elephant thighs. Must cut down on food and run a mile.

7) Play AoOni. I know this is a stupid resolution but i have to gather up my courage to play it man. The purple troll runs so fast. Anybody know where to download the game? If you don't know what AoOni is, it's Blue Ghost. lol. Lame english name :P

8) Grow my hair till it is super duper long. yet another stupid resolution. But i want to have loose curls and tie a side plait. Since i keep experimenting on other people's hair instead of mine.

9) Be closer to God. I seriously have to do that. I keep neglecting my duties as a Muslim. I better improve on my Agama. Seriously.

10) Open a booth in CF with Yue. I kinda promised her so we are going to set up a stall selling buttons! All designed by us both. :3


I think that is about it. There might be some other stuff I want to achieve later in the year but i must achieve all these resolutions for this year and maintain it. Improving myself to be a better person. I will end my post here then. Kthxbai. :)
