Speeeeeeeeeeeeeeed Update

First week of class is damn the boring =_= Either class is canceled, or the lecturer couldn't make it, or the notice for class is posted on the DAY OF THE CLASS ITSELF.

Class registration system is all wonky and I registered myself for Semiotics in the MALAY group as opposed to the English one fml. So now I have to go to the lecturer and register myself manually ml =O=

I hate it when systems go down >O<

And there's another paper to register for and it CLASHES with two other classes. What the eff is the admin thinking ftl >O< Grrrr not happy now...

Anyway gotta run. Going for new year countdown at KLCC later XD Happy New Year everyone!!!!

After a month

Yes yes I am updating now @_@

I just finished an exam paper and my last and final paper is not until two days after today so I thought I'd post an update. Mainly for my friends who have been checking back in day after day week after week month after month @_@

Then again my last paper is Literature so how do you study that anyway? @_@ Read plenty of poetry? But that really doesn't help much......

Plenty of things have happened in the last month or so. So many things that I really don't know where to start =( I will let the stories out bit by bit, but right now I do not have the heart to actually tell you guys anything.

And I apologise for my long looooooong absence @___@

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

Now putting all that emo-ness aside, I'll tell you guys roughly what has happened this past month. Yes I know I am contradicting myself since i just said I won't tell you guys anything just yet but that's how a girl's brain works so oh what the heck =_=

Okay firstly, due to my endless habit of procrastination, I was forcced to stay up three nights in a row to complete two assignments, which other people took 3 months to finish, which was worth 30% and 15% each for our final exam.

=_____________________=

Then again, my seniors said, "You will feel like you cannot do it but you will definitely finish it." after I said FML for I guess a thousand times.

But miraculously, I managed to finish them both by their deadlines without asking for extra time! (YAY?) And I celebrated this victory against the clock by sleeping the entire 24 hours after that @_@

I got 21 out of 30. I don't care at least I got 20 something and that is something =_= Plus! I think I did fantastic in today's paper MUAHAHAHAHAHA XD

Ehem.

So that's me staying up to do work. A first time for me =_=

Welcome to university~

I will update again tomorrow. Now zzzzzzz~

About time I update I think @_@

But I am lazy so I will update again tomorrow. Goodbye~

God, forgive me.

For I have sinned.

I carry sins which I can and cannot speak of. I am a terrible sinner.

I have forgotten that You are here every minute of the day, watching over me, waiting for me to respond to your presence.

In times of happiness, I forget to thank You.

When in distress and sadness, I forget that You are always there.

When I need help, I call everyone who is out of reach, instead of turning to You, God, the closest friend I can ever wish to have.

I ask myself why, and the answer was simple. I took You for granted.

God save me.

Learning from other people

Baby says I haven't updated for a very long time. And I agree =________= Aah.....I've just been so lazy.........

Oh well nobody reads this blog anyway~

I just thought I'd like to share something today.

I get this feeling that sometimes we are acting exactly like the people who annoys us. Like, for example, you are annoyed by this girl who likes to act cute in front of her boyfriend, and then when you get a boyfriend you find that you start to act cute in front of him as well.

Example la =___=

Or when you say some people are such sore bitches and bastards because they cannot accept it when other people (their friends) tell them society hate it don't like it when they do this or do that, without realising that you take situations like this badly too and then would refuse to speak to said poor friend for the next year. Was that too long to understand?

Never mind if your brain is too short.

Truth be told it is sometimes easier to get through life if, for once, we stop complaining, take a step back and look at the big picture. Sometimes when we look carefully, we really learn from other people's mistakes and change for the better.

Most of the time we do things we don't like other people doing. And that's what I realise after years of hearing different complaints coming in from all sides of the earth.

Meaning I will hear complaints coming from two parties complaining about each other =_=

I for one do not get why some people complain so much. Like the entire world owes them something.

I get sick and tired of such society.

Grow up suckers. The world owes you nothing.

Aah....That felt good

Just to say that I feel better already.

I am supposed to study for two quizzes this afternoon but I just cannot bring myself to read these stuff.

How to? I had only about 4 hours worth of sleep last night and there're another two classes this afternoon. It's not fair. I'm going to sleep the second one away.

So yes this is a pointless post.

And Baby, if you're reading this, I miss you ='(

What the hell is wrong with bitchy classmates??!!!

What is your PROBLEM?!?!?!?!?

So you got top grades, you're smart, you're funny, all the guys like you, all the girls hate you, the course standard is too low for you. SO?????????????

You may be better than the rest of us, but that doesn't entitle you to ANY right to be such a bitch. URGH! Even a "bitch" is an understatement for you! You can be a bitch times by 10!

There is a very, VERY fine line between being straightforward and being downright rude young woman. Sure people now look for employees who are capable of pushing their companies forward instead of just some polite office girl and no doubt in future you will receive promotions faster than mice run when chased by a cat (with all your flirting) but heck you will be LOATHED to bits and one day you will just fall from the highest peak and you will break every single bone in your back.

Oh and yes I acknowledge that you will be successful in the future, I don't doubt it. But I don't like how you treat other classmates and international students in class and heck, you just don't know how many people around you HATE you.

The phrase "People should love you for who you are" is overated. It's like saying "People should love me because I'm rude". In your case that is. Bullshit.

That's all for today. Needed to vent. And I am frustrated because I miss my Baby.

Hell I just need to be angry to cover up the sadness I am feeling now.

But really woman.

That is the last straw.

Random Ramblings

I don't know if any of you are her die-hard fans, but everytime I see Hunny Madu on TV I cannot help but turn my face away and bury it in my mom's crochet sheets.

And I really cannot care less even if you say she has done nothing to me and that she looks prettier than me and that I am jealous of her and all that bullshit her face just makes me revolted. Everytime.

Because she looks so damn like an ex-classmate I don't like. Or should I say that ex-classmate looks like her, since Hunny Madu was born first =_=

Oh heck it's just unlucky that I don't know Hunny Madu personally I guess =O=

And now I see her face ten times a day!!! Like everytime before AND after commercials on TV she would appear! And and AND!!! They don't only LOOK alike! Even the way they TALK, MOVE, and wave their arms around looks the same!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHY?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! TOTOTOTOTOTOTOTOTOT

URGH! I just scrolled up to look at her again and the likeness just kills me T_______T I better post up something else soon so the picture gets moved to the next page asap.

And I'm going to be very annoying and not tell you who that ex-classmate is.

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

I know I have left my blog on hiatus for the longest time and I am so sorry about that I promise I will not look for excuses about being too busy because I DO find time after a hectic day to read a few pages of my novel and race Queenie on Pet Society so!

I am sorry =(

I am doing a 500-word assignment as I type this so please do not hate me already! T_T

And my roommate is playing Playfish games as we speak =_= GAH! Concentrate girl! TOT

So far uni life has been good =) Only thing is, assignments are getting tougher and more challenging. But then again that's what higher education is all about =D

No don't get me wrong! By higher education I mean education at levels higher than Form6 @_@

***********

That was written a decade ago =_=

I'm sorry la!!!!! TOT

ANYWAY!!! I am now back in Penang so anyone who wants to hang out or anything please give me a ring! =D And no if you don't have my number don't bother looking for it because I definitely won't go out with strangers ^_^

So now that I'm back home I am spending on virtually nothing XD Except when I go out with friends =_= which was just yesterday =__________= And we spent A LOT.

Next time I go to your house, Jes, we stay in and bake cookies or something T_T

PICTURES!!!!

*Post written half a bloody year ago*

And because it is written half a bloody year ago, I shall not talk anymore. These are taken during Interaction Week with the seniors, exactly the second week after we checked into UM 7th College, Kolej Za'Ba.

I'll leave most of them captionless =_= They're mostly pictures of my then group, Cell 3, and the members are mostly Malays with only a handful of Chinese and two Indians and one Bidayuh (at least I THINK he's Bidayuh @_@)

Just have a look ^^ It surprised me how NON-studious UMians can be, I kid you not @_@

Singing the school song while someone sprayed us from behind @@

Paint all over our faces ^^

Me and my roomate lol ^o^

Don't ask =_______=

The End.

I can't stand big fat LIARS

Still sorting through the pictures. 3GB okay! No joke trying to filter the good pictures from the bad!!! =O=

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

Okay this is a story I heard from my mom this morning.

She met the mother of an ex-classmate of mine at the market this morning. So being two housewives who has a daughter each who are both of the same age in different states doing two different courses in two different universities, they naturally talked about their daughters.

Mrs T: Ei where's your daughter now aa?

Mama: Oh she's now in UM doing Linguistics.

Mrs T: Really aa? My daughter now doing Finance at *****. Her STPM result not so good.

Mama: Wah Thank God my daughter got 2.9 lo! She got the course she wanted she was so happy!

Mrs T: Haiya your daughter didn't take Accounts ma~ You know Form6 Accounts very hard wan~

Mama: Oh......

Mrs T: Actually UPU sent my daughter to Sabah~ She told her father she don't want to go~ Crying all over her face~ So her father said ok lo~ Then send her to *****

Mama: ............................I see.

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

First off, I DID take Accounts in Form6 =_______= This Auntie is obviously trying to make her daughter whose "STPM result not so good" sound better than me. As in, take harder subjects, harder to score, etc.

My mother, sadly, was confused by this point because she SAW me doing Accounts papers and cannot comprehend why this auntie is saying these things with such confidence =_= She thought I dropped the subject.

Her daughter and I were classmates. We took the exact same subjects, except that she took Math and I took Computing, and we both sat for ALL our papers.

So instead of saying Form6 Accounts not easy that's why my results better than her daughter's, she could have just admitted that I did better in ALL my other papers besides Accounts, because that's the truth.

I got a C- in my Accounting paper, A- in Economics, B+ in Computing and B in my General Paper. I scored 3.00 points or more in all my other papers besides Accounting, which is only 1.67, and THAT's why my CGPA was pulled down =_=

And here this auntie is trying to make her daughter sound better than I am =O=

Oh yes I don't deny that Computing is easier to score than Math. Our Paper 3 was a guaranteed A, so we only needed to worry about the other 2 papers, which covers only 70%. Paper 3 was our project by the way.

At the beginning of Lower6 I actually expected her to give up Math and take up Computing instead, since Computing is like, a guaranteed Pass, no matter how badly you could have done. But she chose Math instead, and when I asked, she said she just cannot stand doing projects on the computer for so long =_=

So there, she was lazy =_=

Secondly, "UPU sent her to Sabah" =__________=

Hello Auntie~ We all have common sense okay. Miracles only happen so many times in life =_=

Even you admit your daughter's STPM results not good. Did you imagine for a moment that UPU would even consider her? Keep in mind that tens of thousands of students apply to further their education in our local universities. If her results are anything less than desirable she is unlikely to even be considered.

Besides, if she didn't want to go to Sabah in the first place, why would she even bother putting it in her list?

If your daughter didn't make it into local uni, just admit it and tell the truth! No one's gonna laugh at her! People will laugh when they've found out what sort of lies you've been telling to save yourself that face!

Can't stand liars...Urgh!

I'm Back in Penang! XD

From tonight onwards until Sunday afternoon XD I think @_@

Am totally excited cuz I need to download all the softwares and Internet browsers like Flock for my laptop! XD Downloading them at my college was like anal without the pleasure =_=

Pictures soon! I look at the folder and faint cuz there are, like I said, 3GB worth of photos to choose from @____@ And THEN! I need to upload them all! @__________@

Oh Jesus Christ help me T______T

Short Reply

Just a short note. Pictures aren't ready =_= NIZAM!!!!!!!! TOT

See, I cannot NOT think. If everyone doesn't think, we would still be living in trees =_=


This is what happens when you read. It stimulates your brain and triggers your thinking. Whether or not you agree with what you read is an entirely different story.

One of the many reasons I follow blogs is because I love reading. From there it triggers thoughts and emotions. I read a person's thoughts and opinions, from there onwards I pick out points of my own, think from my own perspective, and then I will either agree or disagree with the author, or, I admit here, laugh at or ridicule him or her.

I'm sure everyone goes through the same process when they read anything =_= If you do not think or reevaluate what you have read then you shouldn't even read in the first place, which is impossible because you have to read no matter where you go =_= road signs?

Yes you also have to think when you read road signs =o= Come on you don't have to make sure which is left and which is right? =____________=

The fact that someone reads my blog, get mad at me for disagreeing with themselves or ridiculing them makes my point even more obvious.

Now after all your reevaluation, I have the choice to write down what I think, my own opinions, my perspective of the whole story. Am I plagiarising? No! I am only blogging about my own opinions based on another person's blog entry. I am not copying, so I don't see why I should keep my thoughts to myself.

People will be offended? Yes I don't doubt that. I hit the "PUBLISH POST" button with that in mind.

But I have also learned that in life you cannot please everybody. To stick by your own opinions you will offend someone, that's a sure thing. And I do not know any bloggers who does not have haters. I became a hardcore blogger with that in mind and I am prepared to welcome haters.

So no, I will not change my mind just because people are offended. Unless you give me proof or evidence that I am utterly wrong, I will not surrender.

That's all. Until next post when I have plenty of time to upload my 3GB worth of pictures. All original, none photoshopped.

More Uni Scandals

UPDATE 1: I checked, and it IS called "Stomp" ROFL XDXD Thanks Brendan! But it's not my fault! My Malay seniors are the ones who misspelled it! XD

UPDATE 2: I am not flaming anyone in this post. Whatever written here is purely just an opinion. It is not meant to be offensive in any way at all, nor am I trying to look smart. If you feel anything then either you have an emotional capacity the size of China, or you are exactly the kind of person I am talking about and feel that you have made a ridiculous decision as well.




It is Interaction Week with the seniors.

And we from cell 3 are asked to perform "Storm" with the theme "1 Malaysia".


Sancta Maria~~~!!! TOT


For those of you who are not aware, Storm is a performance where performers use anything that can produce sounds, like pails, spoons, cups, slippers, hangers, whatever, to make music.


If there wasn't a theme it would have been easy T_T


And and and! We have to ask for 200 signatures from the seniors in less than 3 days.



......



You tell me la how is this possible? T____________T


200 freaking signatures to be handed in by tomorrow night! Are they mad???!!!!!!


Apparently not because it is tradition =___________=

At least this time they don't ask funny questions @_@



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



I just hopped back here after reading a couple of blogs.


In my honest opinion I think it's ridiculous how some people would do things that are just not them.


This is what i have learnt all throughout my study life. Never do or try to do anything which you know you are not capable of.




If you suck at Accounting in Form 6 DON'T do Finance in college.


If you're not a straight A student DON'T "ngeh si" want to do Medic.


If you hate Science, THROW it behind you and do something you KNOW you can excel in.


If you're not good with numbers, freaking DON'T put Math in as one of your Uni choices. Waste only =_=


When I got into UM I think plenty of people must be jeering behind me, saying that I got in because I took a course the smart-ass students don't want.

And I don't regret it. They go for Medic, Pharmacy, whatever doctor-related course, and look where it got them. They got something they didn't want. (First choice Medic. They got Genetics instead, Fifth choice =_=)

I got a miserable CGPA of only 2.9, yet here I am with all the four flat students, eating at the same table, laughing at the same jokes, sleeping in the same room. My roomies were both Matrics students, one doing Economics and the other doing Statistics, and we got on fine.

Everybody said that Linguistics is a course nobody wanted. They cannot be more wrong. It is a course with very few places. When I went for the interview there were over 40 people in the room, and now I have only 13 classmates.

And I am freaking enjoying my classes more than I have EVER done in my past 13 years of schooling XD

But then again, yes I know, it is all a matter of CHOICE =________=

God this word can be so evil sometimes @_@

No offence everyone. I am just of the opinion that during Uni it is no more a chance to prove to others that you can do something which they think you cannot do. There cannot be less of a time to do so =_= Uni is not easy, which is why we should always play to our strengths.





***********





Interaction week is FUN!!! XDXDXD OMG the Explorace was just amazing T_T But I fell down and scratched myself so I had to keep my wound out of the water, thus making me feel like a retard T_T Had to keep myself dry while I watch my cell members getting wet ToT

Pictures in the next post! I promise! TOT

Random thought

The week after orrientation was damn hectic! Like, okay fine I got more rest then I did compared to orrientation week but really the action just doesn't seem to stop @_@ Everyday I'd be out of campus either with Dad or with friends, and we'd spend the day (after classes) doing something, doesn't matter what @_@


Anyway, today I'm gonna talk about a very out-dated topic, which is......



The death of Michael Jackson.


I sincerely think he looks better black T_T

Okay here's the deal. I am not a frantic fan of his, but I think it is rather absurd that while he was still alive nobody gave a shit about him, but in his death the whole world mourned like the King's son just passed away =_=

Seriously, I feel pity for him that only in his death did he earn the attention which he had been working for all his life.


Of course I am not saying he doesn't deserve any. I personally know some people who are his hardcore fans and needless to say they were torn apart by his sudden death =(


It is utter sadness that he will no longer be around to entertain.


God bless his determined soul.

I want my camera~ T____T

Because I want to take pictures dammit! T_____________T


There are so many posts I would like to write but just cannot find the mood to write because I don't have pictures to explain what I am trying to write. And I just cannot complain all the time because that will make me look like a spoiled brat, which I probably am =_=


I just got my Matric Card, which also acts as a student card, which I can use to get discounts off new spectacles and plenty of other entertainment resources out there. Also I use it to go in and out of the UM gates as I like, and not get into trouble with the guard XD


ALSO! I use it to borrow library books without going to the counter, which saves a lot of time, since plenty of people borrow books at the library, which means that there will be a long line of book-borrowers at the check-out station, which really doesn't make any difference if we have a Matric Card or not =_=

So you see!!! Plenty of things you can do with a UM Matric Card XDXDXD ROFL!!!


Okay what else can I talk about?

AHAH! XDXDXD I can talk about my classes! XD

Which I think will be exceedingly boring so I don't think I will @_@

Just a brief talk then HAHA XD We Linguistics students have to take courses like Proficiency in English, Introduction to Linguistics, Professional Ethics, Phonetics and Phonology, and Literature in English. Oh wait. And also Ethnic Relations. So that's......6 classes =D Poficiency is boring, Intro to Linguistics is also boring, PE is fine, Phonetics is like science in language, which scares me, and Literature was the most fun XD ER is boring too =_=

I know you're all bored out of your skin =____________=

I told you I have no pictures these days~! TOT

By the way I started this post at 1:30pm and now continuing at 12:02am =_=

I love my Faculty seniors! =D They are such lovely people. They actually invited us juniors for a day's outing just to get to know us and brought us to dinner at Delicious =D But of course we need to pay for ourselves la~ There were like, seven of us =_= But still, they were great people ^o^ And it is especially nice to sit in an English-speaking community XD I can't understand why but it seems to me that chinese-speaking chinese are rather stuck-up -_-

I hope I am wrong, really.

But my roomates are okay =D Really!

Oh oh oh OH!!! I BOUGHT A NEW LAPTOP!!!!!!! XDXDXDXD Mad happy because I am now blogging on my new laptop XD It's a new hp Compaq but I'm not sure about the model @_@ Will post up a picture soon XD

I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! XD

Okay this is really just a nonsense post. I promise to write more mind-challenging posts in the future but now I'ma go blog-hop some more =D Some of my seniors have blogs so I'ma go see what they write. See ya all suckers~! XD

I'm FINALLY back!

OMG I am so sorry everyone for abandoning my blog this long but Internet is just not available to me this past week and more =_=

The biggest regret I have right this moment is that I don't have my camera with me T_T

So many things have happenend during orientation that I simply do not know where to start talking T_T

Oh and I just realised that I did not tell you all what program I am actually taking @_@ Hehe~ XD

I am taking a Bachelor's degree in the Faculty of Languages and Linguistics, majoring in English =D Yes I know when I said I am going to UM everyone is all impressed but when I told them about my course they'll go "Oh."

Like all of you right now =_=

And I am going to live at the 7th Residential College for a year.

Anyway the orientation week is like, torture. Seriously it's just plain torturous.

We got only about 3 to 4 hours of sleep a day and we have to wear the same t-shirts everyday. The same, damn, dirty, smelly t-shirts EVERYDAY =____________________= Can you imagine the smell???

But I enjoyed it. I loved orientation week and I miss it. I miss cheering and my group members and our activities. I miss doing everything in a group with my cell members. Farid, Azri, Affan, Khairi, Nik, Lina, Yi Ling, Suh Xing and all the other members. I played futsal for the first time, chased after the stupid ball and kicked it only once in 7 minutes.

Even then I kicked it towards our own goal =_=

But I enjoyed every second of it.

T_______________________T

OMG I really miss orientation week.

And also our Pembantu Mahasiswa, who had worked their asses off for the sake of us. They are the ones who tortured us, making us do half-stands and run around the court ten times when we make mistakes @_@ But they are also the ones who make our orientation week fun and memorable.

I shall post up pictures when I get hold of them =D

And there are things that they say robotically, everyday XD

If you all co-operate with us, we PM will co-operate with you.

If you play the fool with us, we will play the fool with you.

If you give us trouble, we will give you trouble.

Classics, by PM Gigi XDXDXDXDXD

But it is this sentence that make me really alert and awake.

"Do NOT play the fool anymore! You are no longer students! You are all University Undergraduates! Not just any university! You are undergraduates of University Malaya, the best Uni in Malaysia! SO STOP playing the fool!"

And that's something I know I will keep forever.

I am an undergraduate, studying in University Malaya.

And I am just so lucky to be here.

I am Hermes and I am learning how to blog

Hello everyone. My name is Hermes.

I am here in front of the computer scratching my feathered head wondering what is so great about this world called "Blogosphere" that my mistress Yumimi is so obsessed about.

I assure you that this is me.

This is really me.

Please don't laugh.

You are still laughing.

Why are you still laughing? I am a newbie! Don't bully me!

Haih.

And here I am typing out a story for a bunch of people who are laughing at me. What? You think it's easy to type with feathery hands? One of which forever attached to a Jack-O lantern?

Even HE is laughing at me! *smacks Jack-O lantern*

Alright.

I am actually from Starbucks. You know the American cafe that everyone loves? Especially its Mochas? Hehe the Mocha Frappucino with Java Chips is Yumimi's personal favourite, often with a dash of hazelnut syrup.

Anyway I was bought by Yumimi's boyfriend one day along with Pumpkin and Ginger.

And we were handed over to Yumimi to care for. She picked me up, pinched me on the nose and body and all over, and named me after Percy Ignatius Weasley's pet grey owl from Harry Potter, Hermes. The other bears were named Pumpkin and Ginger respectively because...

Well, they ARE Pumpkin and Ginger. HAHA!

Anyway, Yumimi is feeling drained and tired after a day of work. She says she is in no condition to blog so she asked me to fill in for her instead.

I proceeded to tell her that I did not know how to blog but she has already fallen asleep.

She also told me to include some things she would like to tell her readers.

I asked politely for her to tell her readers using her own words.

She slapped me.

So here I am, typing this out with my feathery paws. With a burn on my cheek.

I shall start by stating Yumimi's disgust at what society is making of her and her blog these days.

Apparently, readers would pick on her blog when she is being bitchy, showering her with spiteful comments and challenging her on their own blogs.

But when she makes an effort to blog about something nice and fluffy, society gives no damn about it.

I must say this is rather rude of you readers. No matter how bitchy she is about inconsiderate smokers, it is her complaints and just a girl's rants. And just because we are already breathing in smoke (since the air is already polluted) it doesn't mean that it is okay to breathe in MORE smoke.

Yumimi also asked me to point out that since the air is already polluted, humans should be working to improve the environment, instead of making it worse.

Yumimi also suggests that, the next time somebody slaps you, you should just turn your face right around and offer to let them slap the other cheek. Because apparently, "scolding people like they are so smart themselves" is wrong when someone else started the fight.

She asks of you to imagine what you would do if your boyfriend's ex-girlfriend comes right into your house and slap you. She herself scoffed that she will smack her around the head and proceed to burn her (the ex-girlfriend's) hair over the stove.

She would also like to express how funny she finds it when, rejoicing at the fact that she is getting into her dream university, people actually says she is being inconsiderate.

Because she did not consider the feelings of those who had failed to secure a place in the local uni.

She finds this statement absolute bullshit as she cannot find any part of her blog entry offending to non-uni-gonnabe-students. She did not openly insult them, nor did she say she is above them. So why can she not express her joy and happiness in her own blog?

She would like me to say that this is ludicrous and stupid that people would turn a harmless post offending. It seems to her, and to me also, by the way, that these stupid people are plainly just trying to find fault with her, no matter what she blogs about.

On the other hand, she also told me to, after dissing stupid people who cannot appreciate her, to say thank you to people who DO care and know she is just another harmless girl on the street. Yumimi says a hearty "Thank you" to Eve, Emily, Leonard, Brendan, Chester, Ann-Marie, Jimmy, Mrs Khor, Tan, Wan, and Cat. You all have been nothing but lovely. Even a stuffed toy like me knows. Hehe~

Aah~ I hope I have written enough. Yumimi says that I must write a good long post for her to wake up to in the morning. Or she will stuff me into a dark corner of her closet for the rest of the year.

Please pray for me -my- readers.

*******

UPDATE

Yumimi says sorry if she really misunderstood. Hehe~

RESULT'S OUT AND I AM GOING TO UNIVERSITY OF MALAYA!! XD

YES eat THAT suckers!!! XDXDXDXD SEE! I am not a hopeless bitch in life lo UM wants me!!! XDXD

Ok I shall stop here I rejoiced enough at Twitter already @_@


I started writing this post at 3pm and I am continuing at 5:23pm. OMG I just realised that I am so tired I spelled "continuing" wrongly =_= But I did the spellchecking thing so now corrected already ROFL =D

Back to Uni. Wah I am going back to school @_@ I've totally forgotten how it feels like @@ You know those days when we have maybe one week or two weeks' break from school? You'd be thinking of all the holiday bliss on Friday before all your plans and on the last day you'll be wishing you have more time off from school because you didn't do any of your holiday work XD

Then when you finally sit in your classroom again you'll be wondering why your handwriting looks so ugly because you hadn't held a pen all week. HAH! I'm right aren't I? XD

Wow I DO remember what it feels like to go back to school =_+

But this time it's different! It's not just a two-week break from school. It's SIX WHOLE MONTHS AND MORE worth of holidays!! O______O Time flies.

And my handwriting is not ugly because I use a pen everyday at my workplace.

And I am now brain dead because I have been sleeping badly these few weeks =_=

Plenty of things to do! I just read the UM entry requirements online and I think that's where all my brain energy went =_= I have to go for X-ray and health check-up, go to Bank Islam to pay up God-knows-what-junk, do some insurance thingie I will have my dad help me with and develop SIXTEEN passport-sized photos of myself O_O wtf SIXTEEN??? For what??? O_______O

Oh and Lina made it too!! We'll be studying in the same class! =D But a pity because we are assigned to different hostels T_T Which means we cannot be roommates T_T So is a friend who I met at my Japanese major interview. I am assigned to hostel 7, Lina hostel 8, and YingHui hostel 3.

Speaking of YingHui I am so ashamed of myself @_@ Since I went for the interview and came back to Penang I've been receiving messages from YingHui and I'd be wondering who this person is and I dare not ask who she is because there is a name there O_O So I opted to NOT reply instead.

This went on until 3pm today when I was talking to Lina on the phone.

YingHui sent me a message again asking what I got @_@

And I was wondering aloud to Lina who this girl is until it hit me that she was the one-day-friend I made the first day I stepped inside UM O___________O

Oh my God can you believe my forgetfulness?? O_______________O I think I've already forgotten half my primary school friends @_@ Or maybe all of them +_+

HAHA I remember her as the girl who complains about feet-ache for wearing half-inch slippers for the interview @_@ Half-inch!!! Obviously she's the tshirt-jeans-sneakers kind of girl who uses only cleansers on her face and doesn't use lip-balm (her lips were cracking and it really bugs me because I just cannot stand cracked lips) but she is a really nice girl and I really liked her =D

Heck, she didn't realise she is talking to a girl who wears three-inch heels to shopping malls and spend hundreds on skincare ROFL XD

Which reminds me. To my dear beloved friends. Stop saying I am rich because I buy expensive skincare and shampoo ok? Just because I spend more bucks than you on my face doesn't make me any richer than you =_= Do you know how much balance I have left in my bank? I slaved for 5 months in this shop and I earn an average of RM950 every month, and now that we've reached this part those of you with calculative brains unlike me will know that I.....

Wait.

*grabs calculator*

Okay you lot will know that I should have roughly RM4750 in my bank account. Minus perhaps everyday meals and petrol I should have more or less...*grabs calculator again*...RM2750.

Just a rough figure everyone.

And no I do not have that amount in my bank account. I have way less than that. Enough said.

And by now you should be tired of reading about me boasting about how much money I have or you could also have skipped over all these chunky paragraphs wondering how long more I am going to type.

My point, my dear friends, is that I have to cut down on many many many other things I enjoy in order to buy my skincare products.

And most of you would be saying now that drugstore products are just as good as those high end face washes that charges extra because of it's label. So I shall retort by saying that had drugstore products worked for me I wouldn't have splurged in the first place.

I only have one face, peeps, and I want it to look good =_= Hence the endless search for effective moisturisers and scrubs disregarding the price tags.

Did you know that I have to cut back costs on entertainment? And shopping? Cat will be telling me about the new tops and jeans she bought with her mom at don't-know-where and I'd listen wishing I have more cash in my bank =_= She'd go for movies almost every week and I can only go when my Baby is around to take me.

SEE! I DO have to make sacrifices ok so stop saying I'm rich in that sarcastic tone lo! I think I am growing allergic to it because I'd feel a migraine coming whenever I hear it =_=

Okay I don't know how I can talk from UM to migraines so I shall stop abruptly here.



p.s: Wow O_O I wrote quite a long post! Yes it is pretty much pointless but considering the fact that I am brain dead these days this is a really huge achievement XD

p.s.s: I have a sudden desire to blog like a Dumb Blonde but I shall leave that for another post. Perhaps when I am complaining about Ah Bengs XD

p.s.s.s: Okay I'm done.

Mice and Me =D

Two fluffy bunnies hopping in the woods~

What? I did say I will blog about two fluffy bunnies =_=

*receives unbelieving stares from all directions*

HAHAHA this reminds me of a lullaby Eve and I wrote... I think last year @_@ We each create a sentence after one another until something comes out of it. It was hilarious XD

Okay I will copy and paste the "Two Fluffy Bunnies" lullaby here XD

Two fluffy bunnies hopping in the woods,
One with a spear, and one with a hood.
The one with the spear poked the other in the eye,
And the other fluffy bunny tripped the other with its thigh.
Both fluffy bunnies writhed around in pain,
Until it started to rain.
The rain fell pitter patter,
The tripped bunny felt bitter, because it's getting wetter.
Both bunnies jerked and shivered, and squeezed together.
Then while longing dearly for food,
Realisation hit them that one of them is wearing a hood.
And so 'neath the hood they lay and fell asleep together.
So now we come to the end of the Two Fluffy Bunnies' Adventure.

Good eh? XD I love this one HAHAHAHA And yes we both know it is just plain stupid we laughed throughout the process of making this one up XD

If you are interested in Eve's writing, Click HERE =)

Speaking of which... I just read through some of Eve's old works, and it just dawned on me how long it has been since my last composition @_@ It was a no wonder some part of me seemed to be missing! O__________O

I should start writing again =D

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

Four more days until university intake is confirmed O_O Time really flies T_T Lord I am scared!

What if I don't make it into Uni? What would I do??? I am not ready to start making a living just yet T_T

Funny, I was just thinking of study-working in KL if I made it into UM @_@ I seriously doubt if I can make it this time. Lina is also freaking out @_@

It is nerve-racking, especially when most of our peers have already left to further their studies @_@ Plenty have alreay gone to UTAR, some to private colleges, and some are going overseas.

Crap. And we're still stuck here nearly nervous to death.

Why can't the damn thing be announced faster???!!!!!!! TOT

Yes it's a lame post =_=

More on Smoking

As I expected, someone is angered that I criticise smokers.

Okay to be honest I am not used to backlash. When I read her ridiculously long entry I am shaking from head to foot, whether from hunger or fury I cannot tell. All I know was that I cannot keep a straight face while talking to customers. I cannot smile properly at them and I think it probably looks more like a grimace.

I sat at the office thinking about it all. I took my time. I read her post again. I leaned back and think. Again.

Should I retort? This is exactly what I expected from her. Had there been no reaction from her part, I would have been fairly surprised. Still, it wasn't exactly pleasant.

Oh well never mind. I hit the "Publish Post" button knowing this will happen. I just have to suck it up.

There'll probably be more of this in the future anyway. And Baby said that a true writer should know, and be prepared for all of this.

Oh by the way did I tell you all that I am extremely proud of myself when I read the previous post and saw that I did not swear at all? XDXDXDXD Because Eve was right. Swearing your head off is soooo mature XD

Beyond THIS line is also a direct reply to AnnHime
*********************************************

I never imagined that I would live to see someone justify smoking. Duh? Who doesn't know smoking relieves stress? One of the easiest ways to relax and destress is by lighting up your cigarettes. I ask this though. Is there no other way?

Is there no other way to destress other than smoking which even 3-year-olds know would be bad for you? Is there no other way to take your mind off problems? Other than breathing in nicotine? Exercise maybe? Indulge in some of your favourite gourmet cuisines? Read a good book? Play games maybe? Anything?

Yet you choose to damage your health. Oh *slaps forehead* I forgot. It's your choice.

But then again. You are wrong. You are soooooooo wrong. Everyone who smokes is going to say the same? Did you think everyone thinks like you do? I asked around because I know everyone's different. I have already talked to people who intend to stop, only they are taking baby steps.

You asked if I am a social worker. No I am not. You asked if I am Mother Theresa. And I don't understand why you highlight that one. Should I even answer that? Like Duh? My name isn't even Theresa. If I said yes what would you do? Laugh right in my face, or in this case, right at your computer table.

Did I even mention that I am trying to change anyone? I merely asked James why he didn't quit. I am not in any way related to James. He will not listen to me. Nor will all the smokers who I barely knew. I GET IT.

Oh but I must agree with you though. After tonnes of thinking, I have concluded that yes, you were right. If I caught my boyfriend smoking, I will scold him, make him stop, force him to stop, and if he still insists on smoking, I will leave him.

Only I find it troublesome to explain that much at the time, because in the end I will still leave him if he doesn't quit.

What was that? If I seriously love him I will sacrifice myself and BE a second-hand smoker? Or start smoking myself?

SORRY. AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN!

I am NOT like you. My life does NOT revolve around love and love alone. If my guy insists on smoking I will NOT put up with it. I may love him madly deeply passionately but if he expects me to smoke or breathe in all his second-hand smoke then he obviously does NOT love me enough to think what harm he is doing to me.

Oops. I just said it. Alright I'll let you sit back and watch if my Baby ever starts smoking *winks*

That being said then why should I stay by him and "quietly accept anything and whatever he is made of"? BULLSHIT. I am not giving up my health and my life for a man who thinks only for himself. I do not live my life for a man.

Unless of course he is terribly rich or terribly handsome or if he is going to inherit America then yes I will understand the sacrifice. But then again, that's for money, not love.

I will like to make it clear though. As long as a person who smokes does his or her business away from everybody else and get rid of that smell (spray on perfume or cologne or bathe or whatever) afterwards, I would have said nothing. But no! They don't! They smoke around others or return from their business smelling absolutely gross and expect people to put up with it.

I have another question.

I made a choice not to smoke.

You made the choice to do vice versa.

You head out to smoke, come back smelling of smoke. I don't want to breathe in that stench.

So who's supposed to get their choice???

You go and "destress", and I don't breathe? Or I breathe and you don't smoke? Or smoke when you go home.

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

UPDATE

Okay I am getting sick of this. No more smoke-posts until I find any reason to complain again. My next post will be about white fluffy bunnies hopping in the woods.

I said it before and I will say it again. Everyone is different. Your perception of TRUE love, seems to me to be sacrificial love, where one party will sacrifice everything for the other half. While the other half continues happily doing whatever he or she is doing.

I am not saying that love does not need sacrifice. I, too, have sacrificed things to keep my relationship strong. My beauty sleep, for instance. But I suppose that's a trivial sacrifice compared to what soooooooo many other girls have done =_=

To me, though, a relationship is supposed to make me (and the other person) happy, and if the sacrifice I need to make to keep it going spins in an unreasonable direction I will choose not to pay the price.

Back to smoking. I think I'm not making myself clear enough. I am not saying I hate ALL smokers. I am talking about those who expects other healthy people to breathe in their second-hand smoke and those who don't care that they are friggin smelly after they smoke, even if they don't do it around healthy citizens.

We non-smokers just do not like the smell. It's almost like breathing in second-hand smoke already.

That's all. Really. I am not one to go around forcing random people who I barely know to stop smoking, but I am, I guess, allowed to say that it is not pleasant having someone around smelling of tobacco. Yes even if that person is my friend.

I promise no more smoke-related topics after this. And I will not read any -smoker's- blog until the month is up.

Timing, Smoke, and Queenie

I am, as Firesky likes to call me, the Girl with the Worst Timing EVER @o@

Because whenever I call her, she's ALWAYS in the shower =o=

And whenever I call Lina, Lina's ALWAYS at HER house =O=

Personally I have to agree =_________= Because I always call people at nonstrategic times =.= I'd call Jes when she's gaming. I'd call Lina when she's sleeping. And I'd call my baby when his parents are around.

=O=

And worst of the worst, I'd be racing on Pet Society in my store when my boss is online.

=O=

And I cannot even pretend I didn't see his instant message because I had stupidly excitedly irrationally posted up photos of Queenie winning mere minutes ago =_=

Jimmy (my boss): Oei! What are you doing? Not working er???

*I was still busy racing so I pretended not to notice for a while HAHAHA I was winning ok?!?!?*

Me: Oh hi Jimmy~ =D I was racing and feeding my pet but now I stop already =D

Jimmy: Racing lo.
Jimmy: Feeding your pet lo.

Me: I stop already la~ @_@
Me: Shirley (my manager's girlfriend) ask you to add her.

Jimmy: Who's that?

Me: Ah Tan's girlfriend la!

Jimmy: I don't add people wan ok people add me heakheakheak~

Me: What?? You added me in the first place!
Me: Oh wait did you add me so you can know whether I'm on Facebook? @_@

And the chat stopped there @_@

I'm probably the only one among my friends who can chat on Facebook with my boss during working hours =o=

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

I think I'm running out of ideas for my blog O_O This is BAD!!! I'm aiming to earn some good bucks from this blog!!!

Okay okay I will squeeze all the droplets from my brain and use them to force something good in here! I think this post will be a pictureless one for now I need time (which I have very little of) to photoshop some pictures @_@

Okay okay since nothing has happened to me in a while, I shall continue complaining. My God this blog is becoming more and more bitchy by the day.

Let's see......Alright.

I hate Smokers

This is gonna freaking anger many people, including some of my friends. Those who smoke, that is.

Cigarette packets have pictures of coal-black lungs on them. Scientists worldwide have confirmed that smoking brings all harm and no good. People are dying everywhere because of lung cancer. Children are hospitalised due to severe asthma because their parents smoke.

So why does society still do it???

*Okay upon reaching this part I had a sudden thought and turned to my manager who is sitting right at the next computer and asked him about drinking.*

Me: Tan! Why do you drink?

Tan: For fun la. Why?

Me: Do you drink a lot?

Tan: Not sure. Sometimes a lot, sometimes not so much.

Me: Isn't drinking bad for your body?

Tan: Well smoking isn't good for the body either but people still do it don't they?

.................

Right =_=

Recently a new staff came to join us here, at 168 Communications DSS and since Day 1 he stepped in here he's been having smoking breaks once a day and he'd come back 5 minutes later smelling of smoke =_= I will not even begin to describe how bad his breath smells when he opens his mouth to talk.

Worse still, him being part of Anastasia's clique, the two of them would go out together to smoke. And then they'd come back smelling of smoke =o=

These days I'd sit at the customer service counter all day just to avoid the smell.

I did not want to say much about this because my Dad used to be a smoker, even after his marriage and the birth of me and my brother. But he quit and to this day I am proud to say that my Dad quit smoking for the sake of his family =D

But after serving customers who smell so strongly of tobacco I cannot breathe properly I need to rant about this =O=

Why the HELL do these people smoke when they KNOW that they will most certainly die early??? Why do they smoke KNOWING they may get cancer and suffer a painful death?

Why do they smoke KNOWING that people around them hate their smell?!?!? Why do they smoke knowing they may harm other people while they do it?!?!

This can go on and on so I'll stop here =_=

Other smokers I "interviewed" had different opinions about quitting =_=

The new staff, James.

Me: Why do you smoke? (This is getting ridiculous)

James: When I'm stressed, I smoke lo. It sort of calms me down.

Me: Oh wow you must be stressed all the time then =_= (note sarcasm)

James: No la...

Me: You know aaa, I don't understand society these days. They know smoking is bad but they still do it? Why didn't you quit?

James: It's very hard to quit okay it's not easy.

Me: But it's not impossible either! My dad quit.

James: Good for him.

Me: Yeah it damn well is. I ask you aa. If you have a girlfriend now and she asks you to quit smoking would you do it?

James: No I won't.

James: I'll only quit when I found out I have cancer.

......................................................................................

*crows flying overboard, crowing*

CAN YOU BELIEVE WHAT HE SAID??????

By the time you finally find out you have cancer you might as well smoke until you die la!

WAIT!!! There's more.

Me: I will never date a smoker.

James: What?? So if your boyfriend starts smoking now what would you do?

Me: I'll break up with him.

James: Even if you really love him?

Me: Yes. I stick to this principle like Superglue.

James: Haiyo...... Very hard to change your mind.

I don't want to change my mind James thank you very much.

At least drinking is way better than smoking in my honest opinion =_= At least the alcohol you consume doesn't harm anybody else. Maybe until one day you get married and your baby has high alocohol content in his/her blood or something @_@ Oh my God that's so cruel of me! Babies are innocent I shall slap myself for this X_X

I think I've said enough, for now @@ Will continue some other time.

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

And just to cheer up this exceedingly bitchy post, here's a picture of the world's cutest feline =D

Queenie!!! ^O^

In a new Summer outfit!!! XDXDXD And I changed her eyes too! I like to think she looks like a romantic beach kitty! XD

I finally made all the changes I wanted for her =D I've been wanting a new outfit for the longest time and also those romantic sparkling eyes *_* Oh my God why isn't she a real cat I want one like that!!!

p.s: I am only talking about inconsiderate smokers who smoke when there're people around to breathe in their second-hand smoke, or smell them. So if you're not one then you can be sure I'm not yelling at you.

Random Thoughts

............

I named this post random thoughts because I have no idea what I wanted to say in the first place =_=

Erm...

Uh.......

.................

Damn I need to get a blogbook =_=

I promise a longer more solid entry in the (very) near future ok? Sorry my very lovely readers T_T



p.s: Sea of Poppies is turning out pretty boring =_= Too many descriptions. But I haven't reached even a quarter yet so nevermind I shall continue reading.

p.p.s: Random:~My washing machine is still spinning and it's 12:53am and I will so face difficulties waking up in the morning T_T

OFFDAY!!!

I haven't been this excited about an offday for a long, LONG time T_T

Because I will be spending this ENTIRE day in Baby's company!!! YAY!!! =D

From 10am till 10pm! =D Hehe~

Okay I can hear some of you saying What's the big deal? I go out with my bf/gf all the time! Well, good for you then you're always with him you can hug and kiss and have all the FUN you want =_= My Baby and I just happen to have lives of our own, and we love each other without feeling the need to spend ALL our time together =D

So anyway we left for Gurney Plaza as soon as he reached my house =) I haven't been to Penang Island in the longest time so I was very happy when Baby agreed to take me all the way there =D

I'd prefer to go to Queensbay actually but Baby didn't really know the way @_@

Doesn't matter! XD More importantly my Baby was there holding my hand all the way XD

So anyway long boring story cut short. We went to Popular, bought Seventeen, went to MPH, bought the book Popular doesn't have (The Other Boleyn Girl. Seriously why doesn't Popular have this book it's like such a big thing on screen already =_=) Walked all over the place looking for an ATM machine (we got lost in the basements twice) Went for a snowy at 600cc (Baby got rather sick of it's level of sweetness but he still ate it anyway ^^) then bought some stuff at Watsons and went home.

I was wearing three-inch heels and by the time we found the ATM machine I was whining unbearably because it hurt so much @_@ Baby told me off for wearing high heels and commanded me never to wear them out again @___@

I made my innocent puppy-face and told him I'd still wear them out anyway ROFL HAHA he looked at me like I'm some kind of a retard XD

So we went home, watched some animes and went out for dinner at Manhattan Fish Market =D My first time there XD I know it's sad =_=

My Baked Fish with Herbs

Baby's Fish and Chips, or in this case, rice XD

And he sent me home after that T_T I started missing him immediately after he left ToT

I just realised, after a lovely day out with my Baby, that this is the first proper date we've had in months and months =( Always our parents would be standing in the way whenever we want to spend some quality time together =( Even now that exams and schools are over.

So now you tell me how can I NOT be overjoyed that I'd get a chance, even if it's just one, to spend an ENTIRE day with him?!? TOT

I'm currently reading Sea of Poppies by Amitav Ghost, I mean Ghosh @_@ Needless to say it's the front cover's illustration which caught my attention at first but after reading the summary at the back I thought I'd give it a try =D So far so good XD

Will start on The Other Boleyn Girl after I finish Sea of Poppies =) Both are rather mature reads I think, which is good because it gives me more exposure, which means I can actually learn a lot more than the average romance books =_= Yes I am ditching "teenage" books @_@ They're starting to bore me! =O=

So ends this very boring post =_=



p.s: I just found out that ship captains in the olden days are tipped right into the ocean when they die at sea =D I always thought they'd be given a proper funeral when the shipmates reach the shores, but no! They're bodies are just thrown overboard XD

p.p.s: I cried upon reaching home because I have no idea when Baby and I can go out on a proper date again ='(

p.p.p.s: I love you Baby ^O^ *muacks*
