hahahahaha nope , I quite like the way I blogged in chinese. I um , google translate them or I get my friends to translate them for me.

what I think you guys need to separate the chinese people is , chinese chinese. Not all chinese people are typical lala chinese. You get what I mean ?

I don't understand some of my friends who tries so hard not to be who they are , they read chinese and they can write chinese ( I can't even write my surname in chinese properly without a day of practicing ) and honestly , why hide that special talent of yours ? I think the chinese culture and the language is beautiful. Except for hokkien and hakka. Sangat rude please !

Don't be ashamed of yourself , if you speak fluent english and you're able to read or write in chinese be proud of it. Everytime you wanna fake your accent or if you're trying to be guailo ( angmoh ) chinese but budget eurasian , think about this : I have to use google translate all the time and ask for guidance from my classmates.

my mandarin improved abit since last semester. Thank you MM085-1 !

"I know you're somewhere out there , somewhere far away."

Heard too many hurtful things today , I think my eardrums started bleeding a minute ago. Wish I could take back everything I did.

Wish I could ask forgiveness and even if you forgive me I can never forgive myself.

To see it , it's unacceptable. I will try to think positive. You probably have reasons for what you did. You better have one.

有时候我常常需要你在我身边
但有时候却不想
有时候我想我需要一个朋友
因為有時候我想要的，只是朋友的陪伴，我知道我這樣做是自私的.

like a thorn
under my feet
hate this feeling
not over it

like a knife
held against me
if I could revive
I would

I'm weak
I'm only a human
I'll take the bullet
but you take too long to pull the trigger

2011-01-09T19:33:00.003+08:00

went for a swim.
amazing how things can go smoothly when you're on your own , when you're alone.
you can eat whenever you like , do whatever you like , you can even do your assignments without any interruption. I can swim whenever I like and I get to GO HOME WHENEVER I FEEL LIKE GOING HOME.

Loving this. <3

Malaysia is not going to ban facebook, so use it wisely. don't play farmville at work, don't play games in school,don't post status like I'm going to commit suicide I've always felt that suicide messages are personal so keep that in your blog. or write a letter , cause if you use internet to post stuff like that macam for fun so you cant blame anyone for thinking that you wrote that just to get the attention but for political reasons ? abuse it :)

2010-12-31T06:58:00.001+08:00

happy new year everyone :) 2010 was the worst year in my life. and I'm glad in leaving it all behind.

fights and arguments, questions and not answers , friends or foes..

irritating or just being nice ? what happened to my positive sides..? what happened to that ?

2010-12-30T05:15:00.001+08:00

what if only when you die your friends show up and say stuff like I should've gone out with him or her when she was alive ?

why ? what you have plenty of friends but maybe only a few of them who actually give a shit about your existence ?

the answer is always the same.
not that you need any when you hv only this much of time.

is this growing up? because if growing means giving up , if growing up means you hv to look at the ugly side of the world, if growing up means you hv to give out to take , if it doesn't matter that you have to be yourself anymore, it doesn't mtter that you like yourself yourself but what other people think of you then i really really hate growing up.

you're always confused, sometimes you feel content with it , sometimes you just try not to get in between.

life is one heck of a complicated pacman game.

2010-12-29T07:56:00.001+08:00

cause life's like that. you fall and you climb back up. knowing that life will give you another challenge , will never let you go just like that. maybe it's suppose be like this , your choice whether to take it or leave it as it is. just go with the flow ? or let life take over your decisions? let everything control you, because maybe you didn't put enough effort, maybe 50% isn't what you think you did.maybe not at all. maybe you didn't. well it's probably true. I'm not doing this for you, I'm doing this for myself. now I understand.

maybe it didn't matter to you , cause you've done so much worst than I did and i didnt see any bitterness in your heart.because we have different ideas of what our life is going to be after this. you have a better plan with a bag of what I don't have enough of.I have.. I had a plan of where I was going to be in another a year couple of months back now I know it isn't going to happen. this is my fault. I never work hard enough.

you guys, you live off of what to have and do tomorrow.. Not the future. I'm a bitch because life is a bitch. I complain so much like a bitch. I'm fucked up my way.

aihhhhhhh.

:)

2010-12-29T07:43:00.001+08:00

you think being famous and rich isn't enough , you complain about this that and you cheat and lie on your way up.. you should be ashamed of yourself cause you're a failure.

Something to share with you guys ;

Back in 2007, the New Straits Times ran a photo of villagers carrying a house on their shoulders. It was to help Abu Hassan Ahmad, a farmer who decided to move closer to his mother-in-law in order to care for her poor health. A total of 150 villagers carried his house half-a-kilometre to the new site. They then helped to clear the land at the new location. Such feat was a common practice in the older days, especially in rural areas and small towns.

Inspired by this event, Liew Seng Tat and geng, with support from Five Arts Centre, are inviting urbanites to rediscover the gotong-royong spirit in the Klang Valley. The public are invited to a parade and to move a specially-designed house along Jalan Ipoh to its final destination: Urbanscapes 2010! Once the house reaches the festival grounds at KLPac, the house will be converted into an open stage for anyone who wants to perform.

( Did my research abit here and there and found something interesting to read over here )

Urbanscape was okay :/ and I think flea markets are damn boring already. Macam mainstream sangat. You guys get stock from the same place and sell so expensive , wtf flea markets are suppose to be cheap and affordable.

..and I just bought a capdase charger for my iPhone. Dumbshit , I think I left my charger in college :/

It's good lah.

Need your help guys !

Architectural Styles of the Shophouses

One may realise that there are several different architectural styles of shophouses on the street of either Penang, Malacca or towns in Malaysia. Some have stylistic trends of the different periods on the front facade while others have undergone renovation or used modern materials in an effort to increase their property values. Generally, there are four architectural styles of shophouses in Malaysia, which are:

· Early Shophouse (18th Century).

The front facade appears to have a continous row of panelled or louvered shutters, timber walls and plain masonry pilasters on the upper floor. Attap was used in the early shophouses but was banned due to fire regulations and later replaced by Chinese clay tiles. The profile of these tiles has changed slightly over time from a V shape to a more rounded shape which is lighter and smaller in size.

· Traditional Shophouse (19th Century).

The front walls were made of masonry which became more decorative with either plaster figures or ceramic renderings. A frieze decoration right below the eaves was added displaying paintings or ceramic shard work. Louvered shutters are remained but either iron or timber grilles were inserted in the windows. The top parts of the pilasters were often enlarged to support a purlin at the end of the eaves. In the late 19th Century, the pilasters were much taller and often decorated with plaster renderings.

· Straits Eclectic Shophouse (1900 - 1940).

· Art Deco Shophouse (1940 - 1960's)

Most of the shophouses built in 1940s began to adopt the European style of Art Deco by having long and thin rectangles, circles or continuous horizontal bands on the front facade. Decoration were restrained on the front walls. Reinforced concrete is widely used to create more cantilevered plans, some were placed over windows serving as shading devices.

The Peranakan Cina are usually associated with the Straits Eclectic style.

I would say Malay architecture less found by observing this floor plan. What I know about Malay arch is they emphasis on single roof house, elevated floor etc, commonly can found across Malay, Indonesia and SE Asia.

It is more easily to link the "shophouse" style to European influence. This is also what the reading say:

In the early 20th Century, shophouses in the Straits Settlements began to adopt Western architectural styles with an emphasis on full-length French windows with a pair of full-length timber shutters, an arched or rectangular transom over the window opening, pilasters of classical orders; and plaster renderings. In the early 1900, reinforced concrete was used to allow wider roof overhangs and more elaborate cantilevered brackets which sprung from above the pilasters.

However , Malay-style ornament is appear in many ways eg: in furniture decorations or fashion, along with Indian,Chinese,Victorian style, to make an eclectic Peranakan style.

Straits Eclectic Style

In the early 20th Century, shophouses in the Straits Settlements began to adopt Western architectural styles with an emphasis on full-length French windows with a pair of full-length timber shutters, an arched or rectangular transom over the window opening, pilasters of classical orders; and plaster renderings. In the early 1900, reinforced concrete was used to allow wider roof overhangs and more elaborate cantilevered brackets which sprung from above the pilasters.

Unlike the early and traditional shophouses which have a continuous row of windows, the Straits Eclectic style developed with the breaking of the facade into two or three moulded openings. Such style became popular among the Peranakan Cina community in either Malacca or Penang. In some shophouses, the plasters placed between openings, the spaces above the arched transom and below the openings were decorated with plaster renderings such as bouquets of flowers, fruits, mythical figures and geometrical shapes. In addition, some of the window or door panels were beautifully carved. These decorations among other things reflect not only the wealth of the owners or tenants but also their status or position in the local community. One of the main differences between a Peranakan Cina shophouse and a pure Chinese shophouse is the presence of these highly intricate ornaments and carvings.

The Peranakan Cina shophouses reached it richest phase with the addition of coloured tiles on either walls or floors. It is not known wheather it was the Dutch or the Chinese who first brought or introduced ceramic tiles to Malacca. Coloured ceramic tiles are not only popular in the Peranakan Cina shophouses of the Straits Eclectic style but they are also used by the Malays to decorate their main stairs. In the shophouses, the ceramic tiles are usually placed on walls below the front windows on the ground floor facing the street. Flowers and geometrical designs are usually painted on the tiles. Furthermore, coloured floor tiles made of terra-cotta are commonly seen in the Straits Eclectic style, particularly in the verandahed walkway and inside the shophouses. One may spot these features on the shophouses along Magazine Road in Penang and Tun Tan Cheng Lock Road in Malacca.

Most of the shophouses throughout all stylistic periods were built with a series of gable and pitch roofs; with the exception of courtyards or air wells and balcony. Some have a jackroof which is a raised mini-roof locating at the peak of the main roof. The space between the two roofs is filled with patterned grilles or timber louvres. It provides both cross and stack ventilation which reduces the internal heat build-up especially during day time.

Load-bearing walls at both sides of the shophouse support the roof load through timber purlins which span horizontally across the width of the building. The walls are at least 15" thick from ground to first floor and 9" onwards. After attap was banned, Chinese clay tiles of a V shape were widely used. The tiles are similar in origin to those used in the Mediterranean roofs, being introduced to Malacca by the Portuguese. In the early 1900's, the inter-locking French Marseilles tiles were introduced to the shophouses in the Straits Settlements. However, these terra-cotta tiles were later replaced with modern roofing materials including metal and asbestos sheets.

A typical Peranakan Cina shophouse usually has the first hall (ruang tamu), second hall (tiah gelap), one or two courtyards or air wells (chim chae), ancestral hall, bedrooms, bridal chamber and kitchen. In those days, visitors to the house were normally allowed to the first hall. The second hall or tiah gelap was usually used by the unmarried Nyonyas to peep through small openings dividing the first and second halls. Now, as the social life changes, the younger generation of Nyonyas no longer hide in the tiah gelap.

Besides the presence of the intricate plaster ornaments, carving and coloured tiles; the Peranakan Cina shophouses are usually filled with antique furniture. During the colonial periods, the interior of the Peranakan Cina house was decorated with Chinese blackwood furniture including the family altar, chairs, side tables as well as ornately carved teak cupboards with intricate mother-of-pearl inlay frames. Porcelain figurines, Nyonya cockery and coloured ceramic wares were finely displayed in these cupboards. This elegantly decorated interior is a portrayal of higher social, economic and political status of the Peranakan Cina in those days.

In the early 20th Century; apart from buildings, the Peranakan Cina also owned large acres of rubber estates and tin mines and had employed many newly arrived Chinese immigrants. However, many of the rich Peranakan Cina had suffered greatly not only from the Depression period in the 1930's but during the World War II; particularly the Japanese occupation of Malaya. During the War, they had to abandon their properties including rubber estates, shophouses and bungalows for safety reasons. After the War, the Peranakan Cina had gone a period of degeneration and deprivation. "Their identity became diluted partly as a result of the changed structure of Malaysian society and also due to the conversion of many Peranakan Cina to Christianity."

ShopHouses ( Peranakan Architectural Style )

I've found this peranakan shophouses floorplan online and as you read these information it's clearer with visual so you can understand these facts if you've never been to a peranakan house.

Click here to view the picture.

A shophouse or row house has two or more storeys and is a commercial and private structure. The tenants usually use the first floor for commercial purposes such as sundry shop, light industry or warehouses; and reside in the upper floors. The building is not free standing, rather it is connected to several other shophouses to form a shophouse block. This shophouse is repeated to create streets and town squares found in many urban areas in Malaysia.

Sometimes, the tenants use both the ground and upper floors for residential. This type of shophouse is normally referred to as terrace house. In such a case, the building has a big entrance with a timber bar locked into the door head, metal-bar and louvered-panel windows on the ground floor and a few openings at upper floors. Shophouses usually have a narrow frontage between 12' to 18' and their length varies greatly from 60' to 140', topped with a pitch roof of not more than 30o.

They are often designed in a symmetrical organisation in which the entrance is located in the middle with windows on both sides.

A shophouse is characteristically features a five-foot way (kaki lima) or verandahed walkway. This covered five-foot way, typically an arched opening, joins one house with the rest on the street front. Thus, creating a continuous walkway on the front facade of the shophouse block.

Just a rough draft of History of the Peranakan Cina.

When Princess Hang Li Po of China was given in marriage to Sultan Mansur Shah, who reigned Malacca from 1459-1477, she was accompanied by 500 Chinese youths who later stayed on a hill called Bukit Cina. One might say that the Peranakan Cina of Malacca are descended from these youths. Others say that the Peranakan Cina are the result of inter-marriage between the Chinese and the local non-Muslim Malays including the Javanese, Balinese, Amboynese and Bataks who were brought by the Dutch in the 17th Century from Indonesia. Their descendents became known as the Peranakan Cina or the Straits Chinese and are always referred to as the Baba Nyonya. Such communities later flourished in the former British colonies along the Straits of Malacca or the Straits Settlements, namely Penang, Malacca and Singapore. In the 18th and 19th centuries, the Straits Chinese concentrated in other urban areas of Kedah, Perak, Selangor and Johore.

In Malay language, the term Peranakan, which comes from the word anak or child, means those who are descendants of an inter-marriage between a Malay and any other ethnic groups. Such term can be applied to local-born Peranakan India, Peranakan Orang Putih or Peranakan Cina. For the Peranakan Cina; Malay food, costumes and language are assimilated into their culture so much so that they are also known as the Baba Melayu. However, most of them are either Buddhists or Christians. The Peranakan Cina in Penang speak a distinctive Hokkien dialect incorporating Malay words; so do their counterpart communities in Medan, Phuket and Rangoon. While the Peranakan Cina of Malacca and Singapore speak a Malay dialect with Hokkien words. Today, the Peranakan Cina mostly of the new generations speak a mixture of English, Hokkien and Malay.

During the Dutch and British colonisation, the Peranakan Cina began to embrace the European style and allied themselves with the foreigners. They came to be identified as an urban white-collar community with high social class, noble lifestyle and living in colonial bungalows or verandahed Anglo-Indian villas; and they also sent their children to English-speaking schools. Those who are into business live in highly decorated shophouses of the Straits Eclectic style. There has been little information on the architectural style of the Peranakan Cina even though there have been a number of accounts written on their social and cultural aspects. The Peranakan Cina are not only associated with their special Nyonya dishes, beaded slippers, embroidered Kebayas and antique collections but also their Straits Eclectic style of architecture. The Straits Eclectic style of architecture began to develop in the 19th and early 20th century. The style combines Eastern and Western elements which in the early 20th Century introduced ceramic artwork and elaborate plaster renderings. Such architecture include shophouses, temples, clan or association buildings and villas or colonial bungalows. In Penang, we may see examples of the Straits Eclectic style along a number of major roads including Magazine Road, Sultan Ahmad Shah Road (Northam Road), Burmah Road, Prangin Creek and Muntri Street. In Malacca, the buildings can be seen along Tun Tan Cheng Lock (Heeren Street) and Hang Jebat Road (Jonkers Street), some of which dated back in the Dutch period.

The main purpose of this paper is to examine the Striats Eclectic architectural style, with a special reference to local shophouses and colonial bungalows. This is primarily due to the fact that these types of buildings reflect more significantly on the social life of the Peranakan Cina in Malaysia. Furthermore, the number of such buildings is greater compared to Chinese temples and clan or association buildings. This paper is divided into two parts. The first part discusses the shophouses followed by a discussion on the colonial bungalows in the second part.
