Hmm...

Maybe, just maybe
there are lots of nice people in this world
but sometimes you have to test them
to see whether
they are genuinely nice
or just pretending to be nice

Before 2010 comes to a close

allow me to reflect on the awesome (and not so awesome) memories of the year.

-
So, January was the start of 2010, as of every NEW YEAR (Of course-lah. Duh...) I remember it was the month of decisions, decisions and more decisions. Especially because I took a step - something I never thought I would have done (if you know what I mean) So, went back and forth to my FAVOURITE place of study, filled in everything ONCE AGAIN... and kept waiting, waiting and waiting.

Before I could say anything, February came into the picture. Suddenly, I started doing the THINKING again. Contemplation is perhaps a better word. Like, what if I... Then, CNY came. Made me look past that for a while, only for a while.. because it was also the month when the new semester began. I thank God I had some EXPERT to talk to. Thank you, Mister. Thank You for telling me everything that I needed to know.

March marched in sooner than I thought it would. Overwhelming? Yeah, knowing that I had NEW everything. NEW set of friends, NEW (haha like I can hide anymore)

April oh April. Oh, if I'm not mistaken, I played something in tutorial to so-call COMPLEMENT and MAKE the PRESENTATION (which was really SUCKY) more interesting. HAHA. Funny that I actually had to make up my own music when my MUSIC book fell. Heh, and NOBODY actually realised I was doing just that towards the end of the piece.

MAY! Oh no, sem's ending. I think it was here where I felt really like: KNOCK KNOCK! STUDY! NOT HAVE FUN! *dies*

Soon, JUNE crept in. THE month that determined everything.

JULY: The month where we had the most NO. of people leaving... to KEDAH, KANGAROO-LAND and godknowswhereelse.

August... sigh... very sian month.. Bogged down by HORRIFYING assignments, NIGHTMARES as in having to face the LAPTOP everyday and every second, making u look like a PANDA the next morning.

September, another BORING month. Nevertheless, slaved through it. Call me a mad cow. Yeah.

October. Let's just say there was just one too many assignments. And there was this particular ONE where I spent 4567892 hours on it. The one where I finished at 5.30am. Then, ALAMAK! Referencing got mistake. :( :( After correcting, found another mistake! MAFAN that some lecs are really particular about your "dots", "commas" and what not. Yeesh! That's why ppl came up with "liquid paper" :) To make you realise that the easiest way to correct is by using that. :D Oh, yeah, and thanks to that PARTICULAR assignment, I crashed... fortunately not the next day... but unfortunately the day after. Lesson learnt: No more sleeping at 6-sth am, pls?

November: Had first paper, first week. Had a 9-day break to supposedly study for the next paper. But, something happened in between so that kinda broke the momentum to study really HARD. But, on the other hand, it's nice to know you're not crammed with so may papers in one day. Immediately after that, started PACKING for K-o-R-e-A =) After that, movie all the way :)

ZzzZZZZZZzzzz December: such a sleepy month. Rain destroyed most plans. First of all, heavy rain disrupts Astro. So, no TV. With the heavy rain, lightning and thunderstorm, I don't think you would wanna switch ON anything that runs on electric. So, there goes.... it's either I read or I sleep. LOL. So far, i managed to finish House Rules. The rest, malas nak baca walaupun byk gila buku.... plus my dad just SPOILT me with 6 more books to read. Lagi aku dunno which one to read first. Aiyo :S

OMG ah JO LEEN, why your post so long, one?
:)

Sorry
Bianeyo (it sounds like that, in Korean)
Maaf
Je suis desolee (I freaking need to learn to type the accents)
Dui bu chi (Haha, I simply tembak-ed)

2011? I'm expecting NOTHING MUCH :)

Okay, seriously, I need to go already.

Aiyah

Mummy was calling some govt dept the other day

After talking to the ppl over there for god knows how long she realised

Aiyah, my Malay cannot speak already. Like want to speak but in the end use English.

Lol

Next time, you call can ah? I'm sure u more "terror" than me

HAHAHAHAHAHA

Seriously man... stop saying I'm good la...

Speaking, boleh lagi KOT
Tatabahasa, KANTOI

but sometimes, i struggle to find the words too
be it BAHASA
or ENGLISH

It's like... it's there in my VOCAB but... bah... in the end, everything also haywire liao.

Meh, like I use BM more often than English NOW

Addicted

Tolong!

I'm addicted to this song

Been listening to it since last month

I keep replaying it

The brats are back

well, at least 10 of us. KK left before I came.

Maybe 17th wasn't a good day to choose as Jas and I came super late cuz of the traffic jam that's beyond anyone's comprehension. I was 2 hours and 15 mins late!

Sigh, GOD knows why M'sians love shopping so much. Christmas is just days away and that probably explains why even PEOPLE stay away from their homes and resort to retail therapy instead.

So, ordered food (seafood marinara) which I obviously didn't finish... because someone kept insisting: No, I dun wanna order anything. So, oklah, what to do? (Initially, I thought of sharing)

Then, when it was picture time, that particular person saw my food and went: Eh? Cnt finish ar? Why didn't tell???

And in my heart I was thinking: Wasn't she the one blabbering in Cantonese saying "I don't feel like ordering anything" (which, according to a sane person's interpretation means "I'm not hungry." / "Nobody shall force me to eat."

Okay, on second thought, maybe not.

Anyway, the gathering this time felt like it was lacking something. Hmm... maybe cuz the people who did come last time weren't here this time 'round.

Nevertheless, it was nice talking abt Sri KDU (all over again) Heh! Vain, much?

Looking forward to the next one, though :P

Okay, the brat is going off!

Toodles!

For all the SPOILT kids (including ME)

This is a powerful message in our modern society. We seemed to have lost our bearing & our sense of direction.

One young academically excellent person went to apply for a managerial position in a big company.

He passed the first interview, the director did the last interview, made the last decision.

The director discovered from the CV that the youth's academic achievements were excellent all the way, from the secondary school until the postgraduate research, never had a year when he did not score.

The director asked, "Did you obtain any scholarships in school?" the youth answered "none".

The director asked, " Was it your father who paid for your school fees?" The youth answered, "My father passed away when I was one year old, it was my mother who paid for my school fees.

The director asked, " Where did your mother work?" The youth answered, "My mother worked as clothes cleaner. The director requested the youth to show his hands. The youth showed a pair of hands that were smooth and perfect.

The director asked, " Have you ever helped your mother wash the clothes before?" The youth answered, "Never, my mother always wanted me to study and read more books. Furthermore, my mother can wash clothes faster than me.

The director said, "I have a request. When you go back today, go and clean your mother's hands, and then see me tomorrow morning.*

The youth felt that his chance of landing the job was high. When he went back, he happily requested his mother to let him clean her hands. His mother felt strange, happy but with mixed feelings, she showed her hands to the kid.

The youth cleaned his mother's hands slowly. His tear fell as he did that. It was the first time he noticed that his mother's hands were so wrinkled, and there were so many bruises in her hands. Some bruises were so painful that his mother shivered when they were cleaned with water.

This was the first time the youth realized that it was this pair of hands that washed the clothes everyday to enable him to pay the school fee. The bruises in the mother's hands were the price that the mother had to pay for his graduation, academic excellence and his future.

After finishing the cleaning of his mother hands, the youth quietly washed all the remaining clothes for his mother.

That night, mother and son talked for a very long time.

Next morning, the youth went to the director's office.

The Director noticed the tears in the youth's eyes, asked: " Can you tell me what have you done and learned yesterday in your house?"

The youth answered, " I cleaned my mother's hand, and also finished cleaning all the remaining clothes'

The Director asked, " please tell me your feelings."

The youth said, Number 1, I know now what is appreciation. Without my mother, there would not the successful me today. Number 2, by working together and helping my mother, only I now realize how difficult and tough it is to get something done. Number 3, I have come to appreciate the importance and value of family relationship.

The director said, " This is what I am looking for to be my manager.
I want to recruit a person who can appreciate the help of others, a person who knows the sufferings of others to get things done, and a person who would not put money as his only goal in life. You are hired.

Later on, this young person worked very hard, and received the respect of his subordinates. Every employee worked diligently and as a team. The company's performance improved tremendously.

A child, who has been protected and habitually given whatever he wanted, would develop "entitlement mentality" and would always put himself first. He would be ignorant of his parent's efforts. When he starts work, he assumes that every person must listen to him, and when he becomes a manager, he would never know the sufferings of his employees and would always blame others. For this kind of people, who may be good academically, may be successful for a while, but eventually would not feel sense of achievement. He will grumble and be full of hatred and fight for more. If we are this kind of protective parents, are we really showing love or are we destroying the kid instead?*

You can let your kid live in a big house, eat a good meal, learn piano, watch a big screen TV. But when you are cutting grass, please let them experience it. After a meal, let them wash their plates and bowls together with their brothers and sisters. It is not because you do not have money to hire a maid, but it is because you want to love them in a right way. You want them to understand, no matter how rich their parents are, one day their hair will grow gray, same as the mother of that young person. The most important thing is your kid learns how to appreciate the effort and experience the difficulty and learns the ability to work with others to get things done.

The three dudes

The other day, I was telling my mum about a possible 5 Edison gathering dinner, once again. And then the following conversation ensued:

Me: Mummy, friday got (gathering) dinner. 5 Edison,one. (just in case she goes:Huh? Why you didn't tell me?)

Mum: Huh? Again?

Me: Yalor. The assistant monitor-lah. So gung-ho. Heh.

Mum: (random) So, is Azree going?

Me: No.

Mum: Why?

Me: 'cause he's not in the same class-lah.

Mum: No meh??? (thinks) Oh, yeah hor??? Then, how come he's so nice to you, one???

Me: I dunno.... (Hahaha... after 4-5 years of friendship, I still say I dunno. I fail as a friend).
Aiyah, it's Azree-lah...

Then, suddenly started talking abt Karl Shern...

Mum: Then, is Karl Shern going???

Me: No. Not same class again.

Mum: Wah, then how come he's also very nice to you, one???

Me: He's nice to me-lor... (Hahahaha)

Mum: Then, got people going or not? (All of a sudden) Ah, yes Kwok Kher.

Me: Yeah, he is.

Mum: Oh, got-lah. Eh, why so funny one? All the nice people are not in your class (at least most of 'em)

Me: Yalor...
----
was supposed to go to Columbus, one (Azree's class) but didn't want to go through the hassle of going to a different class and then studying different subjects and making new friends... it's like starting all over again. Meh :(

Already going to a different type of school from the majority of M'sians is daunting enough for me. And then suddenly, part of me wanted to go to Columbus. But then, I decided against it.

Mummy, you've successfully made me nostalgic, once again. Sigh.

The three dudes that painted my last two years of school life colourful. Only one outta the three is in my class. Naughty boy. calls me a banana. but on the other hand, he rescues me most of the time. Heh. (Thanks for the gathering, mr Microwave Oven boy).

Anyway, I hope the gathering would turn out to be a great one.

The boy who lived

So, I finally got around to watching Harry Potter and the Deathly Halows Part 1. I have to agree that the movie has indeed become darker with a lot of scenes portraying violence which does not make it a KIDS movie as remarked by my MUM earlier before the movie. To be honest, I got scared esp when Luna's dad punched the door when Harry and his friends wanted to leave Mr Lovegood's place.... (Okay, I shall not spoil it for those who have yet to watch it).

I think I've to pick up the book and read it again to understand better. I remember getting all hyped up when the book came out 3 years ago. Of course-lah... which Potter maniac wouldn't... duh... XD Was racing against time to finish the whole book but... I only did so in a week. Yeah, call me slow. Whatever. I was trying to enjoy every single sentence as well as PROCESS what was being written in that very last book. :)

Part 2 is coming out next year and soon I (at least) have to bid goodbye to the trips to the cinema I make, without fail. Then again, there's the books to constantly remind me that he is (and will always be ) the boy who lived.

Perhaps one of the BESTEST memories relating to HOW CRAZY or OBSSESSED I WAS over the boy who lived was (uhm..) BURNING my cousin's TV by accident after replaying the SORCERER's STONE movie one too many times (on CD). LOL. I'm sooooo sorry about that, cousin. Nevertheless, I'd like to believe we had loads of fun ADMIRING the CUTE boy who lived. Like how we wish we could marry him. HAHAHAHAHA XD Innocent kids we were.

It's all thanks to Rowling who created such a story. A story that brought millions of people (I may be exaggerating, but who cares?) queueing up in front of bookstores as early as possible... A story that... Sigh, I dunno how to describe anymore... XD

Bring on Part 2 :D

And to those of you who are fans,
cute, no?trying to jinx crabbe and goyle???

we all remember this scene, don't we?emotional scene


fill me in on this one, pls :)seven Harrys??? :)

It reminds me of the days I used to watch this. Memories in Bali :)

Another one : Lovers in Paris



Hotelier is so Mummy's fault :P



I just had to re-post this. I'm so in love with this song =D Love Story in Harvard. :)

short entry?

I went to feed Ah Ma today and I couldn't stop laughing. OMG. Haha. I actually DID! TWO SPOONS! :)

Then, it occurred to me: She did the same when I was smaller.

Awesome memories :)

But that didn't stop me from laughing.

Cuz the next minute, she started doing funny faces in response to the (I suppose) UN-delicious porridge given by the staff.

After eating and some drinking, she rolled the blanket. I had no idea what she wanted to do until she said she wanted to cut the blanket. >.<

Read a few pages of my reader but couldn't really concentrate because I got distracted by too many things.

Went for dinner after that and then got home to type this CHOPPY entry.

Sigh, k-la, back to amazingly-long-winded readings

Pocoyo

To start with, I was introduced to Pocoyo by Momoko who had it all over FB with everyone saying how CUTE POCOYO was. :) Pocoyo, as I have Googled is a Spanish animation/cartoon with the English version for the UK audience. I hope I'm right :)

Then, few days later,
this came from Adelene. To be honest, I was REALLY surprised and then I thought to myself

Eh? Pocoyo?

Coincidence much?


I was looking at her drawing for more than 10 minutes. OMG. To tell you the truth, I have no idea why but I just don't like to look at drawings unless its a painting that has aesthetic value Haha. Why am I talking like as if I know so much about art? Yeah, but anyhow, this one just left me admiring it.

Thankies, Adelene =D


Talking about birthdays/ birthdates

On three consecutive Mondays, in October (insert year here), three babies were born

Azree 8
C. Ying 15
Me 22

Oh, and we were schoolmates... heh!

Haha okay, I know, random kan?

The ordeal

The day started out okay on TUESDAY although I must admit I still cannot believe I had less than 30 minutes of PROPER SLEEP the night before, thanks to the killer assignment of 2700 words.

After COM lecture (which was the FINAL one) three girls (PT AND SF, who left midway) went to EAT at the cafeteria. Needless to say, the cafeteria as always issn't that windy or airy. So, as usual, our hang-out place would be the library.

So, off we went to the LIBRARY. Unfortunately, me being me, didn't even step into the library. Instead, I was lying on the floor ... all thanks to my shoe which got stuck in between the metal gaps of the drain cover. (Meh, so lousy punya explanation)

Was trying to adjust my shoe but crashed instead (and maybe it was because I didn't crash on MONDAY that I had to crash YESTERDAY :/)

Then, started having this monologue:

Jo Leen, you've been working too hard
Too hard for a HD in all your coursework
Time to lower your expectations
You've been SLEEPING at UNGODLY hours of the day
It's HIGH TIME YOU CHANGE all that and LOVE YOURSELF MORE

Random Monash-ians helped me up but that didn't do anything to reduce my PAIN

Suddenly, I was thinking of what happened in Form 4
Same thing, albeit it happened in class and no, no drain cover
Just that I hit my thigh and sprained my leg

The only difference between that time and this?

HELP came sooner
WAY sooner
Jackson Lee came back with the WHEELCHAIR in 10 minutes, since he insisted that the NURSE could only see me at the infirmary and not in class.
AND wheeled me down to the INFIRMARY at the speed of lightning
Within half an hour, I was already able to walk back to class using the ramp

HE was AWESOME
The infirmary was CLOSE BY
The nurse? Way friendlier and super efficient.

Well, the other time I had sth like that was back in college... and they were also QUITE okay-lah considering they at least had an INFIRMARY.

But right here? This was what happened.

Friends initially panicked
Didn't know what to do
Me? I didn't know where the infirmary was...

I thought I could at least get some spray from the infirmary (when I found out where it was)
But someone kept insisting I went to Sunway Med Ctr
Because you know IF I FALL I NEED immediate attention
But they weren't immediate enough.

Fall took place at 11.10 am
Got the wheelchair only at 11.30 am from the security people
In between had to explain to someone from student well-being
Then, bear with the pain, summore... :(

Had to climb into the van, summore.
OMG man...

Once reached they checked on me for fever and all that
Asked me about history where once again I had to repeat the same old "I have cerebral palsy" and thankfully they understood (They should.)
Had another round of ordeal in the X-ray room.
Sighhhh........

They gave me an ICE pack which was kinda a bit too late
Cuz I could feel my body telling me
If YOU wait some more, the pain is gonna kill YOU.

Man, after waiting and waiting and waiting
X-ray came out
Showed NOTHING
Thank GOD
Pls don't ask me how much I paid

See? That was WHY I said: I only needed a SPRAY
AT least, it would ease the pain a bit otw to the hospital
But, oh well...
I'm not in SRI KDU anymore :(
There's no Jackson to wheel me down to the infirmary at lightning speed anymore :(

But, thankfully, I had RACHEL and CHARMAIN who was willing to teman me to hospital :)
AND let me know I'm not alone.

Can't walk now.
If I do, the pain will come roaring back at me :(

What a perfect way to end the semester (well, friday's the last day)
And to celebrate my birthday (which is coming soon btw)

Validation: the masterpiece :)

So, instead of having the usual rigid TESTS that we always do in schools, we were HOWEVER welcomed by this very simple yet meaningful short film that made us feel completely :) after seeing this just before the test.

A MUST-WATCH :D

Do smile :D

Slow dance

This poem was written by a terminally ill young girl at a hospital in New York. It was sent by a medical doctor

(I dunno how far this is true)

but I love it :)

Have you ever watched kids

Have you ever watched kids

On a merry-go-round?

Or listened to the rain

Slapping on the ground?

Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight?

Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?

You better slow down.

Don't dance so fast.

Time is short.

The music won't last.

Do you run through each day

On the fly?

When you ask How are you?

Do you hear the reply?

When the day is done

!

Do you lie in your bed

With the next hundred chores

Running through your head?

You'd better slow down

Don't dance so fast.

Time is short.

The music won't last.

Ever told your child,

We'll do it tomorrow?

And in your haste,

Not see his sorrow?

Ever lost touch,

Let a good friendship die

Cause you never had time

To call and say,'Hi'

You'd better slow down.

Don't dance so fast.

Time is short.

The music won't last.

When you run so fast to get somewhere

You miss half the fun of getting there.

When you worry and hurry through your day,

It is like an unopened gift....

Thrown away.

Life is not a race.

Do take it slower

Hear the music

Before the song is over.

The story of

Epson



Canon



and



HP



Hmm... let's see...

Never occurred to me that one fine day the HP printer would go bonkers.
Guess I was wrong
Last week, was attempting to print the test page after fixing the NEW cartridge
But, man, allignment failed
Sigh...
anyway, devastated as ever,
I had no choice but to
WAIT till it got repaired
:( :( felt quite left behind
cuz no lecture notes for some weeks
Either that or I'm like one week behind
Stupid printer in uni also KO-ed for a while
Next, INTERNET HANG @ campus
Then, the ITS too many ppl/ com rosak-ed :(
Haih... what a week

So, mummy decided to get Canon :)

HP one got traded in for a new one

While the only printer that haven't had much of a problem is Epson
Except the ink quality for printing...
It's just NOT for printing.
Scanning, I guess.

Ohmygod, Canon better not die on me yet
At least up to week 11
which is 5 weeks from now

The visit

So, NAT dropped by my house today after class at Sunway. Truth be told, I never came to believe that this day would come... what with her life and me being so busy with Monash and all. FINALLY, after 17 months without any face-to-face conversation, we met up.

And I thought she wasn't coming when I saw her car outside my house. Haha. NAT NAT....

She and her kawan were fascinated by my fish pond. :)

When they went inside, everything changed from quiet to noisy. Something that rarely happens since I'm the only one. Haha. Good to have some crazy atmosphere sometimes.

And of all things, they brought McD. Was so tempted to eat but couldn't because my stupid tastebuds couldn't taste anything. Right. I'm under the weather, still. :(

School. What we definitely miss. When she came to ask about my kawans and all, yeah, surely I have my kawans from CIMP... when she probed summore, no choice but to mention Azree. Yup.

Trust me, from then onwards, everything just came pouring out

She said: AIYOOOOO that guy very very NICE, right? HE can CRY.
(sometimes I wonder, did he ever cry when he was reading my blog silently???)

Me: Yalor... Haih...


He who will melt your heart in every way.

Mr. Azree, we miss you :(

Anyway, we went on and on about our lives now...

until...

Nat's kawan, C, decided to use my laptop and go on FB besides putting the volume so high just to enjoy Justin Bieber. Heh. Okay, fine, his songs are catchy, I admit. Still think it's kinda overplayed though.

Oklar, let her use my lappie la, since she's quite nice...

While she was using my lappie, borak a bit more with Nat. Hmm... actually discovered a lot of things that I didn't know.

Ya mah, only see her the longest during PE class those days. Otherwise, its HI-BYE.

Then, she left :((((

Sorry that I'm sick :( I hope I didn't bore you.

I love all my friends :)

Pink

Pink - I don't Believe You

Am so in LOVE with this song =)


I don't mind it
I don't mind at all
It's like you're the swing set
And I'm the kid that falls
It's like the way we fight
The times I've cried
We come to blows
And every night
The passion's there
So it's got to be right
Right?

No I don't believe you
When you say don't come around here no more
I won't remind you
You said we wouldn't be apart
No I don't believe you
When you say you don't need me anymore
So don't pretend to
Not love me at all

I don't mind it
I still don't mind at all
It's like one of those bad dreams
When you can't wake up
It looks like you've given up
You've had enough
But I want more
No I won't stop
Because I just know
You'll come around
Right?

No I don't believe you
When you say don't come around here no more
I won't remind you
You said we wouldn't be apart
No I don't believe you
When you say you don't need me anymore
So don't pretend to
Not love me at all

Just don't stand there and watch me fall
Because I, because I still don't mind at all

It's like the way we fight
The times I've cried
We come to blows
And every night
The passion's there
So it's got to be right,
Right?

No I don't believe you
When you say don't come around here no more
I won't remind you
You said we wouldn't be apart
No I don't believe you
When you say you don't need me anymore
So don't pretend to
Not love me at all

I don't believe you

And I thought only Rascal Flatts

had awesome country songs

MUS 1040 just made me fall in love with Reba McEntire
Quite an old song
But that doesn't stop me from listening to it OVER and OVER and OVER again

Was it a coincidence?

Okay, so after much emotion in the STUDIO of AI9, (as well as in my comfy home) Lynch would be returning next week. Kinda expected it. Never knew there was this "save" thing. Darn, I blame my DAD for HOGGING the idiot box. I only get to watch the top 3 or at the MOST the top 2. WELL, season 7 was interesting with both the DAVIDS. :)

Oh, I like Ellen. She's neutral actually. :D Simon would always be Simon, no matter what. Hehe...


Anyway, back to the topic...

Was it coincidence or what? Archie did his "IMAGINE" performance... oh well.... oklar... then right after AI9 was Glee. When Glee ended, I wanted to switch off the TV but couldn't resist... cuz I wanted to watch the opening of the show AGAIN(it was a medley of Lennon-McCartney songs). Thank you, ASTRO, star world channel (a pay-tv thing)

Then, all of a sudden, IMAGINE Glee Cast version was on air. HUH? SERIOUSLY?

I don't deny David sings it better. Haha... maybe it's better off as a solo performance instead of a MUSICAL-LIKE ensemble.

Hey, but Glee is NOT BAD actually =D

Of course, we have to credit Lennon...

Oh, I love the fact that I've off on Wed and Thurs :D and the fact that dad doesn't come home so early nowadays so ITS MY TURN TO HOG THE TV AND ANALYSE THE MUSIC BASED on what I know in MUS1040... Woot Woot! :)

Photo-editing does wonders :)

hehe :D

He makes me feel I'm short XD


from this


to this...




or this

I thought I would doze off halfway

but no...

I actually went for Julio Iglesias concert thanks to my MUM. Obviously, dad had to tag along lar... apalagi? LOL.

Yeah, I was really wrong about him not being able to cater to those who were not born to LIKE his music. I mean, talk about Julio Iglesias to any teenager or young adult... and they'd be like HUH???

I've to thank his powerful voice and the occassions where he went into tango mood with the dancers.

Backup singers... they were just AMAZING. (Haih, if only I could find a better word to describe).

And the fact that he kept repeating his age fortyseven Seriously. Haha never failed to make the audience laugh.. His jokes were epic.

He was so good that when he came out for encore, it wasn't satisfying enough. Every time he said goodbye, he walked off and we knew (or at least I did) that he was gonna come back...

Then, at one point, he left for real.A lot of us were like: HUH? Finish ady?

If only I could write about this for my review assignment. Tapi... tak bolehlah... :(

We were waiting

and waiting

and waiting


and waiting


and waiting


and waiting


and waiting


sigh.... it's only 10.45 am now


our presentation only starts at 11.00am


or so we thought...


until MEI LI said: No, he said 11.15am

aduhai


so, we waited and waited and waited


till we decided we couldn't stand it any longer


WE actually entered the School of Engineering for the sake of the LOO (toilets)


Gosh, what an odd reason

Okay, those of you who are blur, let me explain. Bldg 9 is actually connected to Bldg 5.

Bldg 9 is where all the computer labs are (or labs for arts students)

Bldg 5 is for engineering students...( by right)

That's why it was weird we ended up there for the LOO :D

After all that, guess what?

It was only 11.05am...

Seriously, we just felt like killing ourselves, man

Tried looking at our slides again

Like that helped

Decided to take a breather outside where it was so much better with the wind instead of the cold air con(d)

FINALLY found a friend who at least understands what's it to be like when you know, your parents say this but you wanna do that...

But, she was brave enough to satisfy her parents' wish and her own dream

ie. double degree in BIZ and COMM

So much more BERANI than me

:)

Of course, I told her my story...

that even a single degree makes me want to end up in the asylum instead of some organization or MNC or wherever I can land in later in life.

HAHA

anyway, we went into a bit more detail till this gal spotted her kawan, wanted to talk to her but...


it was time for presentation

FINALLY!

30-second ad...

Yet, we had 20 slides

super much to explain, if you look closely...

and I'm proud of my slides :D

Thanks Yulia for editing/ improving on it.

Darn, the Sri Lankans make me feel my English is so BAD. ATROCIOUS, perhaps.
There was also a news item to look at but Yulia and I focused on the ad.
Whatever it is, we were so happy that we were DONE! :)

Laugh all you want

because I need to
:P





Yesterday, choo-choo train's status on FB read: The worst part of doing assignment is not even knowing how to start.

And I've to hit the LIKE buttton.

If you allow me to add, writing the last parts of the assignment is the toughest because you realize: Fine, I've written soooooooo much for the BODY. Hurray!!!

Then, when you're about to conclude, it's like...



Current status: 250 words more to go... Pls don't tell me to elaborate more on theories because I've 4 readings. Sigh... this is no good :(
I dunno how else to write, what else to say.

Conclusion?

I'm supposed to TIDUR but...

what in God's name am I doing at this hour??? adoi... no good but...

well, let's just say I went for the Transition Prog for my "NEW" course. It was a tiring 8.30-3.00pm, I can say, but it was heaps of FUN! :) I particularly liked the ice-breaker where we had to form a circle and than grab a person's hand across you. I've two hands so two diff persons had to grab my hands. Haha. Needless to say, we got tangled. Untangling something is a challenge, just like life at Monash because it ain't Disneyland. I liked the way Dr. Yeoh put it(Media Studies lec)

Then, we were taken to the land of critical thinking, which unfortunately didn't go so well since we were thinking of our comfy beds and bolsters. The lec was funny. He said: Eh, I hope I don't see you in my class next year ah? LOL.

Essay writing. A major component in being an Arts student. Was given most of the important definitions of keywords and all that.

And then, the library session. As usual, org yg malas nak jalan mcm aku, pakailah lif. :) So, this mr nice guy saw me and held the door for me. I turned back to say Thanks and smiled when all of a sudden, Hey, I saw you in KDU before! And Sunway also, right????

HUH??? No wonder he looked somewhat familiar. I just didn't know where I had seen him before.

The next thing you know, we were friends. LOL. Now I know why he was super nice to me :)
Damn, why is he younger than me? I feel so awkward... I mean seriously! When he said: 5 Columbus... I was waiting for a 2006... instead, I got 2008. Then, obviously we went into the details... which I don't need to type out here. Duh!

Hey, how many ppl do I have to bump into ah? The world is getting smaller. Once in a while, I do get ppl saying: Hey, I've seen you here and here and I feel like... I dunno... just weird???

Just glad that most of the time, they're OK people.


Anyway,my job in the library was to go hunt for books.Matt and B and the rest took charge of biblio and call nos. In turn we get movie tickets if we get the best avg mark. Aiyah, susah gila jugak due to competition, of course.

LUNCH was agood time to communicate with some of my soon-to-be lecs and they realize my *ahem* so they were extra nice :) This is the way it shd have been back in *insert school here* Whatever la... History ady. Now I know from experience... who's nice and who's not.

After that, everyone felt like going home... so it didn't actually end at 3pm. Hehe... but only slightly earlier. Sigh....

Oh yeah, thanks Matt and Beatrix. See you around :D

***************************************

JAZZ concert! Uhm... okay not really a concert. Would say a GIG? :) Most of the time, the pieces/songs were upbeat but there were a few slow numbers.

Where?

Alexis Bistro, Ampang

Why?

Part of assg and also cuz I like JAZZ, particularly BLUES and BOOGIE. (Just realized it the day the 3 kawans came to my hse. Haha.)

Overall, it was SUPERB :)
