there was an earthquake like um...2 nights ago i think. it was surreal. i remember waking up coz my bed was shaking...but my eyes were still closed..and right after that i heard the wind outside. i was still half asleep...so i was just thinking to myself whether it was a dream or not...opened one eye..looked around my room..everything seemed fine..so i tried to go back to sleep rite?

and then rashie called. this is definitely weird...it was 1am in the morning and rashie is calling me? must be important. so i picked it up. and she asked me if i felt it as well.

OKEH! that was when i officially started panicking. so it WASNT a dream. so i immediately got up..went outside my room. found that lei was also up. so i knocked on fish's door. azmi also went down from his room...and sai went up. apparently everyone felt it as well. i dont know what i was supposed to do in situations like these..i panicked so i just wanted everyone to be up and alright as well ok? hehe.

but damn...i was really shook up and i was actually shivering and shaking. so i tried to calm myself down..went inside my room..and tried to go back to sleep. it wasnt anything to be too alarmed about anyway.

the next morning was much better. i mean...i found out that the earthquake's epicentre is in lincolnshire...somewhere not so far from sheffield. no one was seriously injured even though it was one of the worst earthquakes in 25 years. everyone was alright! yay! :)

me and fish slept over at rashies again...and we went to this knitting give it a go sesh. it was fun. the venue where it was held was pretty funny though. it was at a BAR. so it was a pretty funny picture...imagine a whole bunch of girls...(and one guy)...sittin in a big group..and just KNITTING. hehehe. but it was fun. i might seriously take up knitting. but ive to wait till next mth to get all the knitting materials. and im also thinking of gettin a knitting book. cause i cant be arsed to go to the bar every thursday to meet up with the rest of the girls. its at night anyways...too dangerous.

im curious on how id look like dressed as a smurf....... -_-

Oh my worddddddddddddd~!

FISH WAS RIGHT! the drummer from that melee band is SMOKING HOT! She made me concentrate and look at the drummer. Cause the first time i saw the video. i wasnt really looking, i was more looking at the couples and what they were doing and everything :P

But daymmmmm~! what is it about drummers that makes em hot ah?

• Maybe its the way they bang and beat the drums?
• Or maybe its the really rhythmic beats they make?
• Or maybe its just how hot the whole activity *looks*

Don't know eh. all i know is that its HOT! I will not question it any further. hehehehe! =^.^=

Fish just showed me this latest addiction of hers. And she asked me to go to this link. Its this band called "Melee". And the song is LAWAAA~ well, i think its the videoclip that helped jua. Its suuuwweeeettt!

So i thought id share it with everyone :)

Most favourite part of the video for me when this couple was making pottery together. Mcm arah that "Ghost" movie (u know, Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze?) Anyways, aku mau cuba atu sama cowok ku. O_o

Nanti ku mencari cowok. Hahaha.

Oh, something totally unrelated to whatever i just talked about. Me and Fish attended the communication skills workshop by BT tadi. it was awesomeeee~ oh, surprisingly, wan, his friend Johan and Mai was there as well!!

Anyways, back to the workshop bit. Totally enjoyed it. The lady who gave the talk was very engaging, i was hanging on to her every word throughout the *entire* time she was presenting. She was *that* good. So im really glad i went. So satisfied and glad that i came that me and fish immediately signed up for the next self development session. This time it's going to be "teamworking skills". and its going to be held by ACCENTURE!!! hamaigawddd!!

If any of you don't know. Accenture is this really AWESOME consultant company that we (me and fish) came to know during the careers information day. They made a really good impression on us that day so now we are in AWE of the firm. *sighhhh*. Seriously? If i had to stay here for a few more years, i would *totally* apply for a job there. They are soOOoo impressive.

so kamuuu~ join join join!! (if any of you alum lagi pernah join lah). hehehe. trust me, you won't regret it :)

Fish decided to make cookies last week. So i, a fellow baker enthusiast, excitedly agreed to be assistant to her baking needs. Hehehe. So after my business strategy tutorial, met up with Rashie and Fish at the Management School computer lab and Me and Fish went back home.

Went to Tesco with Fish to buy the ingredients before heading back home. We were surprisingly excited about looking at the household wares. and that was when it hit us. WE ARE GETTIN OLD!!! i never used to get excited about looking at the pretty designs on kitchen mitts or PYREX fer gosh sakes. hahaha. but its ok. ive learnt to accept the fact that im fastly approaching Mid 20s soon. *GASP* Anyhooosss....had a nice time baking. reminds me of fond memories of baking back at home..during puasa...before raya is approaching. ahhh~ cant wait to be home for good. Took pics...(but ofcourse)

The ingredients!!!

Nigella Express :)

Bloody nice cookie dough *drool*

Cooling the freshly baked cookies~ ahhh~

The cookies!! Freshly grazed with peppermint flavored chocolate! HEAVEN!!!

Oh, and it was REALLY REALLY cold that day (was it the same day kah? cant remember - but im pretty certain it is - cause it was an early class so it has to be taxation!)...so it was snowing on our way to school. And by the time class was over...it was all white and pretty everywhere. So we can't resist and took pics! hehe.

Rashie and Me

Rashie and Fish

I was bored..so i decided to check out www.xiaxue.blogspot.com. This is the woman who inspired me to have my own personal blog. So i decided to start one late 2006, stopped for a while (cause of a very stupid personal reason - went pass that and started again late last yr). So other than having a blog that i share with my group since we were in high school, i decided to give my own blog a go.

So anyways, i was just looking through at her old archives and there is this one post that i really really like. And it was *so* touching, i remember crying when i first read it. Re-reading it now still brings lil tears in my eyes. Dont know ah..maybe its cause she usually presents a tough exterior, her opening up and saying she feels bloody guilty about her brother is a real tear-jerker. read on ladies and dare to tell me its NOT touching!! :P

But anyhoos...ill just copy and paste her story here. Actual website can be found here

Just a piece of metal

Some one year ago, I found that I was in love.

With this!



Somehow only the red version seems to be omninescent (can't spell this word) but the Topaz Gold one unavailable.

After some futile searching, Jealous June announced to me excitedly that she found the phone, sold at $485, at a mobile shop at Bedok, second hand!

I excitedly bought the phone.

Woah, diamonds! So pretty =)

*


Today, I went out with my brother and Wong the Lawyer. The former to see a doctor for his fever (and zits - man he is growing), and the latter to book my basic theory test with(what good is my SLK without a license to drive it?) and shop after that.

My brother, who is 11 this year and a gameboy advance addict, accompanied me to Bukit Batok Driving Centre after seeing the doctor.

Later on, Wong and I decided to go to City Hall to shop, and it is a little silly to ask Clinton to tag along with us as he would be so sian with us/we cannot crack dirty jokes/he is having a fever.

(digressing, yes my brother is called Clinton. And yes, his name is chosen before Bill Clinton's embarrassing affair. And yes, I am very glad I am not called Monica, for it would seem like I am incestuous with my bro. And yes, if I were called Monica and my surname is Cheng it would have the double effect of sounding like Mo ni ca Cheng, hokkien for touching one's bum. And yes, I am pretty glad that my bro is not called Peter and our surnames are not Pan either. KNN)

So I told Clinton to take one of my phones with him (I have two phone lines) so that at least if he is lost I can still contact him. We left him at Jurong East to take a bus home.

I gave him the T500, shown above.

Predictably, the silly git lost it. He dropped it on the bus seat because he was sleeping and predictably, the phone fell out of his pocket.

My mum called me as I was shopping with an innocent Wong.

"Girl, di di dropped your phone on the bus leh. I already called the bus interchange to try to get it back."

"WHAT?!"

"HOW CAN HE DO THAT?!"

Eekean jumped.

I proceeded to give my bro a call to holler at him.

"WHY DID YOU DROP THE PHONE??! How can you do that? So careless!"

"No, because I sleep then when I wake up it is gone ... "

"HOW DARE YOU SPEAK IN THAT TONE TO ME?! Like it is not your fault now is it? Whose fault is it that it disappeared?"

"Mine."

"THEN? Why you speak in that indignant tone?!"

"I feel and discover that the phone is gone then I tried to run back and chase the bus," he mumbled. "But then when I run I got a stitch and it was very painful so I fell down."

Heh. I didn't know what to say. And I cannot just stop hollering like that because it is very out of style so I continued to yell at him (anyway I had to vent my anger on someone) although I felt quite bad that he fell down.

"I don't care what happened after you lose it, you shouldn't have left it on the bus in the first place!"

*awkward silence*

"So what you gonna do about it?"

"I will pay you with my bank's angpow money."

"Yeah, like you got enough money to pay! You think money can buy back the same phone?"

*awkward silence*

"HIYAH NEVER MIND LAH!"

*kup phone on bro*


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


My mum messaged me on my singtel line later on.

"I will pay $300 for your phone please don't be angry with him anymore."




This one little sentence had a tidal effect on me.

Untangling the emotions, this is possibly what I felt:

1) Injustice at being made to sound like I AM THE EVIL GUY HERE and my brother is the victim.
2) Huge pang of jealousy for my mum's protectiveness over him as if he were still a fragile kid.
3) Guilt for my brother's misery (the parts caused by my yelling anyway).


Wong supplied, "Hiyah, then what do you expect her to do?"

True enough.

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


Later on after asking my mum how come she make it sound like he did nothing wrong and I am the one making him miserable instead of him me, she said he thoroughly deserved the scolding (I felt slightly better) but she also ...

1) Saw that he was sobbing when she reached home ...


and the super kua zhang (exaggerated):


2) Was digging his piggy bank for cash to buy a new phone for me.


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


I feel so guilty I almost died.

It became clear lah. I was stupid, I was. The phone is just a piece of metal, and my brother is flesh and blood.

No point getting him all upset over a silly phone. I'll apologize to him tomorrow. All the medicine made him sleep by the time I reached home.


Meanwhile, any suggestions on what phone to get??? Seems like all the phones are so ugly nowadays. No, no 7610. Too expensive. Anything else?

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

SWEET AH?!?!

The little brother that is. But *ahem* on to more important business. It is officially the 24th of february in Brunei time rite now. I just wanna give a shout out to Abang and Kaka. Today is their 26th birthdayyyyyyyy!!!!! Totally bummed that i won't be there to celebrate it with them. But hey, ill be there next yr. so ill make it up to them nanti saja :P hehe.

Skills Development Sessions
Spring 2008

Anyone else interested in joining me and Fish with these skills development sessions?? It's open to EVERYONE. *ahem* let me quote what the flyer said.

What are Skills Development Sessions?
"These are interactive/workshop sessions where you will have the opportunity to learn about and practise some of the transferable and employment related skills that employers look for in graduates.

What happens at Skills Development Sessions?
Come along prepared to join in! The sessions are highly participative and will involve you in working groups, making presentations, arguing your case - some sessions may be run as business games or simulations and may involve some role play whilst providing an insight into a real business problem. Most students find the sessions very rewarding and excellent practice for employers' assessment centres!

How do i sign up?
The sessions are open to students in all years of study and all subjects (unless otherwise specified) but because places are limited (30 places available at each session), they must be booked in person, in advance at the Careers Service Reception Desk, in the Careers Service, 388 Glossop Road (behind the Octagon Centre) A deposit of 10 pounds is required for each booking. This will be refunded to you when you attend the skills session.

Do i receive a certificate for participating?
Students attending three Skills Development Sessions over the Autumn and Spring semesters will receive a certificate of attendance. Eligible students will be notified by email and certificates will be available for collection at the end of the Spring Semester. Participation in Skills Development Sessions can count towards the Sheffield Graduate Award - see the website for further details: http://www.shef.ac.uk/thesheffieldgraduateaward/index.html

Been meaning to post these pics for a while now. i know..havent gotten around to it cause ive got lotsa stuff to do for school. anyways, me and rashie slept over at zyden's place again cause the dude just bought lion king...on DVD!!! waaa...so classic. anyways, met up with hadi and zyden at the city centre at they companied us to their place. it was dark and to get to their place we had to pass some dodgy areas so....we needed the guys to be with us. anyhooosss....a lot of ppl were there when we arrived. The guys were watching a football match that afternoon, so they decided to watch ramai2 at Zyden's place. Why? Cause of Jidin's big ass TV ofcourse. Oh, the match was Arsenal VS Man Utd. The score was 4-0. Who won? Man Utd ofcourse. (apakan aku ah? prasan liat saja, to be honest i cant be arsed)

Anyways, the ppl that were around was the whole football team. Urg Sheff Brunei football team lah...so durang Mizi,Wan,Iqy,Khairul,Izzul,Zaiem,Aidil and Naseeq went over as well...Azie joined as well (shes a hardcore football fan also i think - sorry Zie,inda ku pasti...but i think awu kali haha) Zur made us laksa kari!! yummmm! and it was super nice as well. (Aku mau lagiiiii)

After the guys left....we played MONOPOLY!!!!! Nyahahahahaha!! Its not the classic one...its the new version..the one where we play with credit cards instead of money. so awesome!!! i was so iski that i took pics.... (and the muncit-test was hadi...the dude was gonna go BANKRUPT ler....but we decided not to continue playing till everyone bankrupt...cause it was gettin late....and it was 2.30am dah...and we still had lion king to watch) hehehe

The calculator that calculates the money (we kinda put in our credit cards in and it does its magic - dont know how to explain laaa...just try it!!) my credit card is the pink one ofcourse.... :)

My properties!!! yea...i also got the cheapest property...but its still popular!! lotsa ppl stopped there as well! hehe

One of my mahal-est property....AND Ben and Naseeq both stopped there at the same time!! WOOHOO!! 5.5 million for each stay!! that makes it 11 million for them both! ofcourse i had to take a pic of it. Which made me one of the richest slajur. fuh! raking in the money!!

The next morning at 10am-ish or so....

Rashie with Zur

Pictures that ive been meaning to put up!! hehe. Took some pics during dijah's stay here (although it wasnt much since we were usually memburuk-ing the whole weekend) and also during our sleepover at Rashie's :)

They had some rides put up at the city centre. They were swinging ppl around in this pendulum-like thing. Can u imagine how freaked out the ppl inside would be if they imagine that they'd be smashed against the building?? O_o

See that thing that is being suspended in mid air? That would be a bunch of people strapped in a seat and screaming their heads off. Would never have enough nerve to do that...im afraid of heights. Xp

Us goofing off in front of the mirror at T.K Maxx. Love it there. All those good bargains!! We were trying on different coats and jackets here. hehe. Can anyone guess what we were supposed to be by looking at our coats?? hehe

Haven't figured it out yet? Cmon..Rashie's jacket is a dead give away...

Love those glasses...too bad i can't afford it... :(

Figured it out yet...?

HAHAHA. ok lah. ill tell. Rashie is supposed to be in the army. Fish is from the police force. hahaha. kan sama ah?? Rashie's pumps even matches her jacket. and Fish's boots TOTALLY go with the whole look. hahaha!

I was supposed to be a surgeon/doctor. haha.

We were supposed to pull a serious pose or something.. haha.

But we can't help but show our pearly whites...

I still want those shades...

As you can see...i don't know how to take proper pics..heehee

I was camwhoring away with Rashie when i realized that Fish went missing..so i went on the prowl and was creeping behind her to see what that woman is up to...

Rashie bejurit..inda pandai makan muffin. Showing her stain off. haha.

Rashie is VAIN!

Damnit! i still think those shades look good on me...

Played pool again!!

I was pretty rusty at it though..

Look at me gasping at how i missed an easy shot..haha.

Rashie was on a roll though..look at that bizatch grinning at whatever it is she was doin.. *grumble* haha! bitter..

Rashie pullin on a face and i have no idea why. haha

Aku mau makan icecream

esehhh! look at my posture. padantah masuk the ball slajur hahaha.

I think i was grinning here cause i was saying "yamma yamma yamma yammmmmaaa" to jinx her. haha

Hey! how come i wasnt in this picture?? :P

Fish taking her turn at the game

This was before that random gagak dude came to join us... *shudder*

Me playing guitar hero in Azmi's room. i must say im getting pretty good at it. heh heh. (this was when Dijah slept over btw)

Dijah khusyuk main game...

Basically what we were doing all day. We turned Azmi's room into our hanging out room. Sai playing guitar hero...Rashie curling Fish's hair. Dijah playin the ds. Btw, we all curled our hair that day. Even sai's! hehehe

Came across two ADORABLE cats on my way to school with Sai

I swear i was gonna catnap this koocheng!! eee!! adorable!!!

SO LAMPUHHH!!! i just wanna cuddle this furball!!

The other cat we came across. This one's a bit shy. But its equally fat and adorable. although its fur wasnt that long. But look!! it has gloves and boots!! just like my bubbles!!

I came across this really good article on feel good tips and i thought id share it with everyone. Im feeling prettyyyy down on this V-day so i figured anyone else thats also down in the dumps like i am would like to read these tips as well :P hehe


There are several sections on these tips.

LIFE
1- wake up and smell the roses. Having fresh flowers nearby is an instant mood booster, according to a study published in the web journal Evolutionary Psychology. Researchers found that giving women flowers made them smile straight away...And they were still feeling cheerful three days later!!

2- give yourself a pep talk. 'allow yourself credit for what you do well,' says Gladeana McMahon. 'Stop saying things like "anyone could have done it" when you've accomplished something. Congratulate yourself the way you would a friend.

3- Have fun with your girlfriends. Dust off your dancing shoes because researchers from Manchester Metropolitan University have discovered that taking part in activities like dancing, painting and playing music can help fight anxiety and depression, leaving you full of enthusiasm for life. Earlier studies have also found that people with full social lives tend to live longer. Make plans today!

4- Get creative. 'Start a journal and, at the end of each day, write down 3 things that you are please about and why,' says Gladeana. 'This can be made up of little things like "i was happy with the way i spoke to my kids today because i was firm, without losing it". Reading it will back will help increase your confidence.'

5- Have a 15 minute catnap. Researchers at the Sleep Research Centre at Loughborough University sing the praises of power napping - they've found that having a short sleep recharges the brain,without upsetting your body clock. So if you feel you're flagging, try bedding down when you get in from work.

6- Let go of negativity. 'Learn to let go when something goes wrong. Wishing things were different is a waste of emotional energy,' advises Gladeana. 'Going over the same situation in your head again and again means you are fighting the reality of what actually happened. And this type of circular thinking can prevent you from becoming more positive.'

WORK

7- Do 'off duty' dressing. 'Changing your clothes as soon as you arrive home from the office helps you out of "work mode", so that you can relax properly,' says stress management expert and medical columnist Dr Roger Henderson. Swap your suit for comfy joggers and feel the tension float away.

8- Gain some perspective. Imagine you have just 24 hours left to live. Would you spend it worrying about the little things, like the filing? Thought not. So what would you do?...This exercise teaches you to change your priorities in life,' states health and wellbeing expert Liz Tucker. 'You may feel stressed at work, but spending time with your family and friends is far more important.'

9- 'Cherry-pick' your worries. Are you working harder than usual but not getting anything done - and worrying like mad about it? 'Most of us worry about things that are never going to happen, but you're probably under a period of pressure that does have an end in sight,' says Dr Henderson. 'Try to gain some perspective, as learning not to "sweat the small stuff" means you've pretty much got life cracked.'

10- Just say 'no'. 'This is the most important tool in your fight against overload but many of us hate saying it, as we worry people think we're selfish,' explains Liz. 'Try the phrase "i know you're finding things hard, but i'm too stressed to help at the momeny".' When you find yourself less busy, you can make it up to them.

11- Release that angst. By learning to forgive your stress sources - your boss for giving you an extra project, your friends for complaining they never see you, your kids for always being untidy! 'Holding on to resentment clutters up your psyche and drags you down,' says Jane Alexander, author of the Overload Solution. 'Learn to forgive, and you will find life a lot easier.'

12- Drag out your problems.Use Liz's checklist to help you create your 'to do' list. She says 'D stands for do it - get the job done; R means review it - can it be done at a later date? A is for assign it - give it to someone else; G stands for get rid of it - do you really have to do it?'

RELATIONSHIPS

13 - 'For a healthy relationship. You need to dedicate at least two hours a week of quality time to your partner,' says couples' counsellor Val Sampson. 'Reconnect with them as an individual, not just as "dad" or "hubby",' she adds. 'Dont just talk about the kids- but about their interests instead,like you did at the beginning of the relationship.'

14- Learn to listen. 'Listening properly to your partner is not about waiting for your turn to speak,' advises Paula Hall, a sexual psychotherapist. 'You need to listen to them as intently as you would to someone giving you directions. Check back with them throughout the conversation to make sure you understand what they are telling you.'

15- Step forwards, not back. '5:1 is the perfect ratio for positive to negative steps in a relationship,' says Phillip Hodson, a fellow of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). 'When you upset your partner, you need to make 5 recovery steps, such as cooking a nice meal (step one!) to get back on par.'

16- Make a date (and stick to it). Even if you're super-busy, spending time with your loved ones should be a pleasure, not a chore. 'Writing a date down on the calendar allows you to make your brain take notice of the date, as it is important,' says Val. And if you've a hot date planned with your other half, Val suggests leaving a heart-shaped sticky note on the fridge as a cute reminder.

17- Get texting! 'Sending a text is a great way to catch up,' states Paula. 'Even if you don't have the time for a lengthy chat, you can still stay in touch.' But make sure you do arrange to see your mates face-to-face every now and again. 'There is a danger of relying on email or texts, which can become impersonal,' she warns.

18- Do a 'tax return' on your friendships. 'At the end of the year, assess your friendships as an imaginary joint back account,' Phillip advises. 'Is one friend constantly taking out more than you? Does she tend to talk about herself and let you down? If so, perhaps it's time to re-evaluate those "toxic" friends.'

BLOOOOODYYYY HELL!! i am???!

You Are 58% Spoiled

You're a little spoiled, but you're not spoiled rotten.

You love to be showered with gifts and affection, but you're good at keeping your demands to a minimum!





I just took this test on facebook. and i compared it with my friends who have already taken the test..and the highest was only 37% ... while a majority of em were only in the 10-19% zone. am i really that teruk?! i think im pretty reasonable.......

screw this

Ive the monday blues -_-


today is the first day of school. The silly thing is...i slept late. hehe. and i had to wake up early the next day. yeah...i never learn. its just this bad habit that i have wah - inda pandai jara. heh heh.

well anyways...predictably...i automatically wake up early...woke up well before my alarm sounded. damnit. stupid biological clock :P first thing that i did? switched my laptop on...and logged into MUSE and registered for business strategy tutorials. u see...my lecturer said shes only gonna put it on live at 7am on monday morning so everyone will have equal opportunity for signing up. and wat do u know? the slot i wanted was already FULL by the time i wanted to register. feh feh feh feh!!! so i took my 2nd choice lah...i opt for tuesday 10am. might as well make the most of it since ive got class at 9am that day anyway.

after printing all my notes...i woke dijah up. all throughout me printing...registering and checkin my email...that woman kept pressin her alarm on snooze every few mins and going back to sleep..pedah wah anak ah..awal saja tidur dari aku. tsktsk. hehe.

dijah went back to london todayyy! boooo! after we had breakfast...we rushed and got ready. sent her off...just in the nick of time... arrived at the train station like...10 mins before the train was about to leave. after that...i had about 40mins to kill before my classes start. so i figured id walk to school from the train station. 2 good reasons there. 1- save duit (they raised the tram fare from 1.30 to 1.40! gila..i remember it was 1.20 when i first got here!!!) and 2- i should exercise the fat ive accumulated from memburuk dlm rumah for the whole weekend. memburuk u ask? yeah...dijah knows how to menjaruk urg. we just hung out at home the whole weekend. that woman didnt even go out!! hehehe. we played guitar hero..watched tv...and watched criminal minds and just gossiped. hehehe. it was fun tho :P

anyways....had business strategy just now. that subject is AWESOME. its sooOOoo..management-like. LOVE LOVE management topics...so im really excited about it. and after that i had taxation... it was pretty dry...didnt really enjoy the class that much tadi. maybe it was because the lecture theatre was so CRAMPED and SMALL. we were squished like sardines...and the class smelled. blech! summer is coming.... ppl are starting to sweat...and knowing these mat sallehs...they dont shower. *gag*

so im hoping the taxation lecture tomorrow will be better..its gonna be in another lecture theatre. PHEW! thank god. im sticking with these modules...made up my mind and gave it a lot of thought last summer sudah. so im pretty happy with my selection. although i am REALLY tempted to switch taxation with international business....but i have to take taxation if i wanna be exempted from P6 advanced taxation nanti when i do my ACCA. so yeah...i consider this as sacrifice lah :P

checked out blackwell after class.....ive got a whole list of textbooks to buy. and its all soOOoo mahal lah! gilaaaa! banyak textbooks kan di bali...and i dont even have enough $$$$. :(

so im gonna call my dad tomorrow and ask if he doesnt mind sponsoring me. ive been SooOoo kusut dari tadi thinking of the money that i dont have...and i really need those textbooks! i really really wanna kick ass this semester. i really screwed up my last semester. all those stupid dramas...and i know i wont have anymore dramas THIS sem...so i might as well do my best this semester right?? its my last!! wahhh...i feel so semangat already. hehe.

got home....anddddd.....me and sai and fish played guitar hero in azmis room for a while! and get this! i was feeling bloody kusut rite? so sai suggested i play guitar hero lah...to release my stress...so i did...and ofcourse i played cliff of dovers (like u guys need to ask tsk!) and and anddddddd...i was concentratin SO hard rite? (harder than the one in the video if thats possible) and and I GOT A PERFECT SCORE!!! perfect as in 100% and no wrong notes!! gila...i wish i had a video of it. i soOoOOooo rocked!! hehehehe. then i went on to play ruby...my name is jonas...and radio song..and get this..semua 99%...gila...sikitttt lagi perfect score...bagus eh my playing today. maybe its cause i was so kusut that i needed to let my negative energy flow somewhere else.

oh oh...and im so semangat that i even made my own timetable. gila..even bought myself this cute lil notebook that i can use to jot down my everyday things to do. the lil pink diary planner i had atu was a bit restricting since it has those lil boxes everywhere u know? so i think this one will give me more flexibility...like how i always use to do when i was in UBD. <---- ok i just reread this sentence and i know most ppl would probably still be bangang and wont know what im talking about. i bet only a handful will totally get wat i was saying kan? hehehehe

fish came in my room like..an hour ago and told me about this bayi girl who was totally dissin UBD. tsktsk. it was pretty sad to see how ignorant some ppl can get about certain things and start dissing when they dont even know the whole picture. it just pisses me off u know? her fren maurina forwarded her this email..it was a copy of that girl's blog lah. so fish forwarded it to me and i forwarded it to my close friends and all the UBD-ians and ex-UBD-ians that i know. just wanna see if they feel the same way i do. cause i dont know..i might be overreacting? nyahaha. seriously doubt it though.

why are ppl like that sometimes ah? i mean...thats just plain dumb. pls dont make a sweeping statement like that when u dont know the whole story lah. man. i know shes just human and every human has flaws...but i dont put down an educational institution that has thousands and thousands of graduates with very good high paying jobs. just goes to show that the girl doesnt know what shes talking about *sigh* im normally not miss cari kelahi..but that girl has touched a very sensitive spot. she was dissing the uni that *i* was in... although im not gonna graduate from there but a part of me is still very loyal to that institution and it has very VERY good lecturers who has taught me a LOT...so GRRR! im soOOO gonna bitch back. thats the thing with me...i have this motto that i had ever since i can remember sudah. what's my motto u wonder? its simple..."ur nice to me, im nice to u - ur bitchy to me, im bitchy to u"

so yes...if ur bitchy to me semana2 without a good reason...u will OH SO find me being equally bitchy if not even more to you. and the alarming thing about me is that i keep grudges for a LONG LONG LONG time. im the type of person who when trusting someone..i will trust that someone fully without hesitation...that when i get ticked or hurt by that someone...it will be such a slap in the face for me that i will be SO SO SO hurt that i can turn a complete 180 degree turn and just be COLD. but u know wat? im really thankful for that side of me...cause it was actually a blessing in disguise for me and it helped me get through my last breakup really quickly. really surprised me at how quickly i got over it though.

will post pics of us memburuk-ing soon. i cant be arsed to transfer the pics from my phone rite now. oh oh..sleeping over at rashies tomorrow...me and fish will be the first to sleep on rashies new double air bed. hehehe. also...i volunteered to help her with her lil project for her friend nabilahs birthday. Hmm...reminds me..i should pack soon. i know i wont have time to do it tomorrow. ugh. i hate having early morning classes. O_o

*YAWNNNNNN*

im up early. and i have NO idea why. -_-

i was in bed and trying to go back to sleep when i heard our front door being knocked. so i bounded out of bed...anddddd...my r4 cartridge is here! YAY! so i immediately opened my package...and proceeded to transfer all the games to the SD card. ilang ngantuk slajur. hahaha.

rite now im still tryna figure out how to use it...its still too early in the morning. my brains not functioning properly yet.

anywayssssss..ive been doing lotsa stuff after the exams. How was the exams u ask? ECH! it was BAD BAD BAD! had to do 3 essay questions....but my essays were crap. didnt have a proper structuree.....my points were everywhere...it was just AWFUL. and the examination place was so damn cold. they only had 4 SMALL portable heaters in that huge place..so i was shivering throughout the entire 3 hours. so i wasnt comfy at all.

so im just hopin that i passed the exams. and i hope all of my friends will pass too! aminnnn~!

anyways....rite after the exams...me, fish, sai, azmi and beng hui went to Odeon cinema and we watched sweeney todd together. that movie is AWESOME!! but its really gory and full of blood lah...so to those who get queasy when watching lotsa blood being splattered everywhere...i suggest you to NOT watch it. cause ull just get squeamish like Sai did. haha

after that me and fish continued on to watch over her dead body. its such a niceee movie. Warning: you will experience mixed emotional feelings when you watch this movie. why? liat lah..i dont wanna spoil it for you :P hehe

couldnt sleep once we get home though..so us five, me, fish, sai, beng hui and azmi watched criminal minds. its addictive! although i ended up sleeping on the 4th episode...i was just so tired! so i called it a day.

the next day was much more hectic. woke up...got ready..had breakfast...and went out with fish. i had to run some errands for my family. first off was to meet this lady called Kate from Kspace apartments. Need to check out how big and suitable the apartment really is cause i need to rent it for my family when they come over this July for my graduation. [insyaallah, mudahannnn kami semua graduate this yr! :)] checked out the apartments..both at Sinclair and West One. and its pretty cool. i prefer the one at Sinclairs though...cause the bathrooms are wayyy bigger. hehe. So im glad i got that off my list. Next that i need to get done on my list would be to find the apartment in Paris....damn stupid agent double booked us so now we've gotta find another one. GRR! idiots.

Anyhooosss...rite after that, me and Fish just walked to the city centre...went to boots (fish needed to buy toiletries) and since we're on Boots' topic...wat is it with Boots ah?? we can never ever EVER spend a short amount of time there...its just so hypnotizing. i LOVE that store! one of the shops im definitely gonna miss once i go back for good. *sigh*

then after that we went to Tai Sun. This kadai runcit cina somewhere near the Moor. Love to buy the chilli sauces there...cause its a wholeee lot cheaper than everywhere else. Then after that we just walked to the train station and waited for Dijahhhh~. After that we all took the tram back home.

Oh and get this. Azmi bought guitar hero punya game and the guitar as well!! YAY! So now i can play it at homeeeeeeeeee. hehehe. played it last nite...but they didnt have cliff of dovers yet so ive to play the career mode to unlock that song. *SIGH* krg lah ku main...azmis still sleeping. BOO! hmpf. i think the whole house isnt up yet. Dijah is still mengampai in bed as i type. maybe i should start coughing loudly to wake her up. hahaha. *evil laugh*

today's plan is toooOo...gee i dunno...i think we're gonna jln after lunch. just walk to the museum since dijah has never gone there before. maybe i should text rashie as well...shes never been there before too. then we can allll camwhore. hehe. and i also wanna bring Dijah to the IC krg..she needs some resources for her report or something. and since shes not a Uni student anymore..she needs to pay if she wants something from this Mintel website. and we can the information for free through the uni's computers. hehe.

Damn im hungry... i wanna eat. pls wake upppppppppp~~~ *pengsan*

Itssss..... almost 7pm and ive still got 3 more chapters to cover. Im taking it all slow cause i think it sticks to my head much better somehow.

Can i finish those 3 chapters though? i dont know.

Does my brain feel like its going to explode? yes. it does.

M i panicking? im trying not to cause the last time i did that i forgot EVERYTHING.

M i gonna kill myself by the end of the night? Maybe.



GAHHHHH!!! i dont *like* exams.

Someone kill me now pls O_o

I dont know about you girls but i think there's just something really sexy about a man shaving...

O_o

I had a very productive day today. I feel so proud of myself. But okay, before i go on to tell how productive i was..i just wanna say that it SNOWED this morning.

how ironic is that? baru jua last nite i was telling Fish that we havent had any heavy snow yet. DAYMM! rupanya it was snowing really heavily like..around 3/4am or something. No wonder it was freezing cold when i woke up this morning. I woke up at around 7ish or something...and i didnt get out of bed till...9.. HAHAHA. yeah. my bed just felt so nice and warm..didnt wanna get up :P

The view from Fish's bedroom. Lawa ah? (But i was still too malas to play in the snow)

2 good reasons why i didnt wanna. 1 - it was cold. 2- the park (where the slides and the swings were) is TOO far from where i live now :P. Oh wait.. ive got another good reason. The rest didn't wanna go out and play BOO! boring. hehe. I had fun last year playing in the snow though. We made snowangels, had a snowfight and we even attempted to make a snowman (we were successful too! although it was a SMALL one that ended up kan kana curi oleh some random kaling who lives 2 doors down from us) haha. Azmi even took a video of me playing in the snow. I was sliding down the kiddie slide. Check it out! Its senget tho. (dunno why he took it that way,kepala hotak nya kali senget. hehehe. nadabah mi, aku main2 saja :P hehe)

Anyways, back to my story of me being productive. We finally booked an apartment for our stay in Paris. Although ive to go to the bank this monday and transfer some more money to this account for some more deposit or something. *shrugs* anddd...we also bought the eurostar train tickets and also the ticket to london sudah. Phew. I cant waitttt. Ani kan baliiiii euro disney tickets saja lagi. Im gonna search around for cheap ones after the exams lah. Cant really be bothered to surf aimlessly for some tickets anyway :P

Uhh...yeah. So that was the whole story of me being productive. haha. it doesnt really sound much but DAYM! it took the whole morning to search around for good apartments, searching for cheap tickets. Laptop ku lagi palui slow. so yeah, thats why it took a long time :P

********** WARNING TO THOSE WHO WATCH CRIMINAL MINDS. DONT READ THIS PARAGRAPH IF U HAVE NOT SEEN SEASON 3**************

Nothing whatsoever to do with what i was previously talking about, i was watching criminal minds with Fish and Sai the other night. and it was umm....season 3 ep 8-10 kali. It was about Penelope being shot, psycho guy who is a cannibal and then the last one was about Frankie Munez (sp?) being psycho. But anyways, the kesian-est episode was about Frankie Munez. He played this famous cartoonist who went a bit psycho after his gf/fiance was raped and killed in front of him (the gang bangers made him watch - bayi ah??) anyways, hes psycho cause he still thinks his gf is alive and he kept listening to her voicemail and everything. i dont know. maybe i was just being over sensitive and emosi but i was crying when i was watching the episode. YOU GUYS HAFTA WATCH IT!! its sooOoooo goOooooddd!

and u know wats awesome? watching criminal minds is making me wanna be a profiler. they are soOoo cool. malas ku kan jadi accountant eh. stupid counting money job. feh.

apakan aku ah? lapas atu sudah liat CSI i feel like being a forensic scientist. canakan tu? hahaha.

bah. aku blajar balik :P
