My full time job, you would guess that it's STUDENT.

That first step you take is the longest stride

But my problem is, I don't take the next step.


I've seen people hurting by thinking too much.
I hurt myself by doing nothing.

Family = People who see the bad/worse side of me

Friends = People who see the better side of me

Others = People who see whatever they want to see in me

I was struck by a sudden realization, while rereading the Twilight saga, that my time as a teenager is coming to an end.

Bella wanted to be frozen in her teens, before she turned 20, because Edward is forever 17. Haha.

Friends! We are turning into our 20s!

How about that, huh?

Haha. It actually doesn't bother me much.

Rather, it gives me one less reason to remain a kid.

Okay, maybe that does bother me a little. o.0

I was wondering about what is left of my days as a teen, when I backtracked and relived the year.

It sure was eventful, but lonely as well.

Foundation to Degree.

Psychology to Economics.

Local to Abroad.

I don't like change. Especially transformations that were not initiated by me.

It really is a blessing and a curse, to have an elder in the family who would stir up my life, in the name of fatherly love.

Manipulative, that's the word. And it irritates the hell out of me.

Still, a blessing and a curse.

On another note, I realized that the world was getting lonelier.

My parents don't see past my obvious flaws.

My friends are growing distant physically and intellectually. Sunway, Singapore, UK; Arts, Science, Social Science.

My relationship with sister was regressing towards roommates, as we were submerged in our own personal problems, and rarely shared them. [Note the past tense]

And my broken mirror nicked me time and time again with his self-centredness and lack of faith, reminding me of his pain, hoping I could fix him up.

In any case, nobody felt the need to share their inner thoughts with me, so I felt the same.

Not even bothering to BLOG about anything at all. It was lonely. =.=

One other thing that I would regret is I idled away a lot of my time. A LOT.

I'm ashamed to talk about how I wasted my time, so let's just leave it at that.

Urgh...my guilt is eating me up.

Regardless, I still learnt. Stumbling all the way towards adulthood.

I know of a person, who very much wants to study in UK.
But, her parents are against the idea. They cannot support her financially.
Besides, she has 3 younger siblings who are still in school.
Regardless, she still wants to go.

I find it ironic, because I was the complete opposite.
My family were the ones who told me to go ahead; while I was the one worried about spending their money.
And I struggled for so long, to find the right reasons for me to want to go.

If I were her, I wouldn't even think about it.
That's why it's so ironic.
But I am in no position to discourage her.

This is one of those times when I should be grateful of what I have.
And it reminds me of a phrase my former lecturer once said, "Thank God life is not fair".

Last Friday, the UOL department had our very first annual dinner at Hilton KL, all thanks to Dr Chin and the students in charge.
It was fun, I had a great time with my friends.

That was the introduction.
Actually Cousin Grace was bugging me to share photos on Facebook.
I didn't know I have to create an album to post photos there. =.=
Besides, if I post them on Facebook, almost everyone will see them.
I prefer more privacy than that.
So here, photos taken on my phone.

My first attempt at putting on make up on my own. Not bad gua...haha...actually cannot see the make up right?

Food was not bad. Desserts were better, and there were lots of them.
My friend Kher Ye, who always sits beside me in class.

And a cute Kher Ye in the toilet. haha

Keng Fai and Kher Ye.

Keng Fai and me. Unfortunately, I only took photo with one guy. haha

Shangari, the only Indian girl in our class.

Pamela and me. The only 2 girls in our Sociology class, may intake.

Serene. Looks very pretty holding the rose.

Min Ee, me, Weng Yan, Li Foong. Socio freaks.

This is blurry, but I like it. I think Weng Yan squeezed in a moment too late. haha

"2pm!!!" Min Ee, a.k.a. Mrs Nichkhun. Also loves Super Junior, FT Island, SHINee, etc etc... [but only certain members =.=]... A Kpop fan, and I can speak Korean with her! haha


And last but not least, my Ah Sou, Yee Theng. Pretty, isn't she?
Bro, I like her. =P

MT: Mi...don't call me at 12 sth...I was having class.

Mom: I forgot what time you finish class...sms so frustrating...so I gave up and called...

Dad: Next time, write your timetable on the board. You know ur mom, always forget.
[and on and on......]

MT: *speechless*


and please... do not imagine the conversation in a nice nice tone. I assure you it was much more annoying than that.

It is amazing. They twist something fairly irrelevant to pick my faults.
Arguing makes it worse. What a defensive family.

I saw these words in Bread Story yesterday, and I immediately thought of someone.
"Are you nuts" is actually the name of a bread, by the way.
It's filled and coated with peanut butter.
So, back to my story.
I thought I should buy this bread for Mr Raj, indirectly asking him "Are you nuts?"
HAHA

Well, I'm sure he'd say YES.
He sometimes says this in class, "You all must be thinking I'm a crazy nut."
And during those times I would mentally nod my head.

So, who is he, you might ask.
He is my Sociology tutor.
And he constantly amazes me.
So don't get me wrong, I'm not calling him nuts for negative reasons.
I actually like him a lot.

And you would have no idea how crazy he is unless you've experienced it yourself.
But here's a good story he told this morning, and I think it shows how unique he is.

So yesterday, Mr Raj was in the lift. There was this student beside him who was talking too loudly. Mr Raj was very annoyed. He wanted to tell this student, "I don't want to hear about your life, keep it to yourself." Or something similar to that. But of course, that wasn't a good idea. He didn't even want to talk to this person. So all he did was, he looked at the student, and then he looked at his own fingers, then he walked out. Just then he heard some students laughing behind him, so he turned around and said something, then walked away leaving the students stunned.

He said, "HUMAN EXISTENCE IS AN ERROR."

So it was my birthday...
and I had so many people wishing me on facebook...
Thank you, each and everyone of you.
though I cannot tell if you really meant it...
so I'm sarcastic...shoot me

And everyone who wished me through text messages, thank you.
Thank you for remembering my birthday ^^

And thank you Grace and Lai Thin, for celebrating with me.
I'm sure you are still full.....wahahaha
By the way, I think my stomach expanded 0.o
Hahahahah

And thank you Kher Ye and Phoebe, who treated me to steamboat yesterday.
Kind of like an early celebration. =P

And the best of all...thank you Xiao Sian and Wei Han...
It's great to see you guys battle it out to be the 1st to wish me on my birthday.
Your rivalry amuses me like nothing else...hahahahahah
And I will hold you to your promises!!! XP

So here's a photo of me today, making a silly pose.
Actually copied someone...haha

It's holiday.
I'm wasting my time reading romance novels again, though I have some stuff I should do.
In fact, I should really get started, and get it over with. Otherwise, there'll be hell to pay.
Well, I'll get around to it. No worries.

So, it's holiday.
Bro was asking me whether I had plans.
Told me to get on a trip, be adventurous.
Then I told him I'm the stay-at-home type.
And then he changed the topic and asked me whether I joined any clubs.
I answered, "Since when did u start caring about my social life?"
Haha...that put him off.

Ok, I'll tell you the truth.
The answer is no.
But I didn't want to kena 'ngam'.
I knew you'd turn into the typical big brother and start lecturing me again.
So there was nothing secretive lah....haiyo....
Don't be so suspicious.

Friendships are not supposed to be like this.

You burdened him with your selfishness, that was your mistake.
He gave up on you, that was his mistake.

I understand his actions, and I wouldn't blame him either.
But I will say this once.
If he gave up on you that easily, he doesn't deserve you.

Quit wondering if things will ever go back to how it was.
It will never be the same again.
Even if you rebuilt the friendship, the scars would still be there.

So let go. Just let go.


I know, that he is more important than the rest of us.
But think, how I feel, everytime you come to me troubled.
Don't take us for granted, the friends who care about you.

I'm done.
Done being a failure.

What is the price?
And what am I fighting for?

Well, really?

I'll admit.
I am weak at vocabulary.
I am not good at expressing myself.
I have bad social skills.

But my English is grammatically correct.
My academic results in English has always been good.
A1 in GCE 'O' / 1119
I don't think that is VERY BAD.

I am an ignorant kid.
You can treat me as such, make fun of me.
But don't look down on me.


Nickelback - Savin' Me
'Teach me wrong from right, and I'll show you what I can be'

It has always been a constant in my life.
It has taken me places.
But how much further can it take me?
I feel, I am reaching my limits.

我终于, 突破了自己.
果然, 不经一事, 不长一智.
发觉, 相信自己, 才是最重要的.

昨天的心情, 一言难尽.
只能用一首歌来形容.

All of a sudden
Studying abroad seems to be the most important thing
Struck us like a thunderstorm, leaving a chaotic mess.
Everything is full of uncertainties.
Plans are being made; lives will change.

It all started when 'the centre of our universe' came over and set the ball rolling.
I wanted to curse him, but I will thank him.

And so, I'm on a mission.

My dearest friend,
You have been telling me half truths and white lies.
But I believed you.
A part of me understands, if you will not tell me everything; but another part of me is puzzled, why wouldn't you tell your best friend about your true condition?
I heard that your friends are all worried about you.
I instantly got worried.
Just how serious is it? Should I be worried?
I fear you might have told me half truths again.
But you said you are fine.
And I believe you.
You told me not to worry, and I really didn't worry.
I have that much faith in you.
I hope, however, that you will not take advantage of our distance.
Will you tell me the whole truth?

For some reason I don't care to explain, I currently have no Internet connection at home.
So, I'm just using the computer lab at HELP.
They don't let us watch videos here though.
But fortunately, can download songs. =P

So, I guess I won't blog much during this one month.

I actually wanted to blog about something a few days earlier.
But now I just want to say this...
How could someone push all my wrong buttons in just a few hours of conversation?

Anyway, I'm feeling the pressure of doing a UOL course.
><

Imagine you were me:
Having class, paying attention, eager to learn, not wanting to miss even a word the lecturer says, wishing you could digest/absorb everything the lecturer is teaching you.

Then, you hear this...

"Sir! Let's call it a day."
"Sir! That's all for today."
"Sir! Raining oh..."
"Sir! Tired lah sir..."

and other petty excuses people use so that the lecturer would let the class off early.

So, imagine you were me.
You would be PISSED OFF.

That is not all.
Imagine you are talking. Then, somebody cut you short, and asks you something insignificant.
Worse still, that somebody drops some silly remark---which, I suppose, is meant to be funny.
That is what happens to my lecturers.

I don't know what my lecturers think.
But that is so damn RUDE.

So, imagine you were me.
What would you do?
Keep quiet? or speak up?

Bear in mind that many others share your opinion too.
Unfortunately, nobody chooses to speak up.

So, my dear friends, if you know me well, you would know what I did.
I took the first step, however small it was.
[Yes, unfortunately, it had to be me.]

The lecturer was letting us off. He was, thank goodness, finished with his lectures.
"So, your homework is..."
"Sir! Don't want lah!"

That did it. I said, "Shut up!"

Frankly, I do not know if the particular person heard me.
But people behind me told me I said it rather loudly.
I suspect my lecturer heard me, though. After all, I sit in the 1st row.

So there. I spoke up.
But, I should have said this instead:
You signed up for this. Suck it up!

Here's a fun video I'd love to share.
You'll find it most enjoyable, if you love kids =D

This song goes to everyone and anyone who needs an inspiration.



Nickelback - If Today Was Your Last Day

My best friend gave me the best advice
He said each day's a gift and not a given right
Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind
And try to take the path less traveled by
That first step you take is the longest stride

If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you had, if today was your last day?
What if, what if, if today was your last day?

Against the grain should be a way of life
What's worth the price is always worth the fight
Every second counts 'cause there's no second try
So live like you're never living twice
Don't take the free ride in your own life

If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you had?

And would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories?
Would you forgive your enemies?
And would you find that one you're dreaming of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you'd finally fall in love if today was your last day?

If today was your last day
Would you make your mark by mending a broken heart?
You know it's never too late to shoot for the stars
Regardless of who you are

So do whatever it takes
'Cause you can't rewind a moment in this life
Let nothing stand in your way
'Cause the hands of time are never on your side

If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you had?

And would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories?
Would you forgive your enemies?
And would you find that one you're dreaming of
Swear up and down to God above
That you'd finally fall in love if today was your last day

有些事情，实在看不过眼。
但事不关己，只好保持沉默。
也只能叹一句，“身在福中不知福”。

I haven't been online for a couple of weeks.
I think some of you friends are starting to miss me....haha
Or...more to the point, you want to know how I've been doing.

The first week of classes in the UOL programme...
There is just one word to describe it ----- OVERWHELMING

The reason, is because of the programme itself.
There is also one word to describe this ----- CHALLENGING

The expectations are so much higher than anything I've ever experienced.
And me, I want to be a top student.
One of the few things I am proud of myself is my academic achievements.
It just proves that I am good at something.
So, I want to know if I am good at this.
It is challenging, but exciting at the same time.

Speaking of exciting, Sociology comes to mind.
Principles of Sociology is one of my core subjects.
It's all about reading, understanding, critical thinking, and more reading.
It is all very complex, and I shall tell you more when I learn more myself.
But it is the most interesting subject I have in Year 1.

Ironically, I find that I could fall asleep in my Econs classes.
I actually dozed off for a few minutes today!
Is that indication of my interest in the subject?
Or just plain cold that freezes my brain over?
Haha...just kidding...I have absolutely no regrets choosing this course.
But my classroom is truly very cold, and I cannot stand cold 'weather'. Seriously.
Furthermore, it was a 3-hour class. Furthermore, I think I didn't get a good night's sleep.
OK, I'm babbling. It is obviously my fault that i fell asleep in class. More excuses will only make me all the more guilty.

And the Mathematics....
I love it.
My lecturer is damn good too.
I actually said this to my friend, "If I had a teacher like this in school, I'd be great at Maths."
Not to say that I'm not good though....haha

I met Bro yesterday.
A thought crossed my mind. OK, actually, 2 thoughts crossed my mind.
The first would be, we don't talk that much when we see each other. It's just so weird, considering that we are such good friends.
Come to think of it, our friendship is pretty much an 'online relationship'.
It was built online.
HAHAHAHA
We chat a lot online, but we don't chat that much in real life. Well, that is because I only get to see him a few times a year anyway.

And the 2nd thought, he isn't that much taller than I am, maybe taller by an inch or two?
Mind you, I wasn't wearing high heels. Just my B.U.M equipment.
OK, no discrimination here. I was merely momentarily reminded of how tall we are.
Right, he's not gonna be happy about this. I hope he doesn't kill me. I hope he doesn't even read this. HAHA

And did you read about the news on USM?
I do not know how much of what they said were true. Apparently there was a technical error. 4574 students thought they were accepted into the apex university, when apparently they were not. They were just in the list of students who fulfill their requirements, and didn't cut it to the 3599 places offered at USM. 3599 to me, sounded like the price of a piece of furniture at some furniture store...My sister actually laughed at that.

My cousin Grace was one of them.
That was just so unfortunate. Though I would say fortunate for us family members.
If she got into USM and got the course she wanted, she'd be sent to Kelantan.
Man, that's like another planet entirely.
Anyhow, I hope she gets UKM or UPM, and of course, the course that she wants.
But I think, now that the USM has done them 4574 students wrong, USM should ensure that each and every one of them gets a place in other universities. Don't you think?

The dilemma of me having a blog, is that on one hand, I can let my friends know about whatever I want them to know; but on the other hand, the whole world can know about it too.

Haha...that's just saying that there are some things I don't wish too many people to know.

And my dear best friends, a few of you have remarked on my 'conference'. I will tell you now that it is quite impossible for me to do that, and so I will just have to approach you individually. =.=

And Brother, how did you know that I wanted to talk about my future studies?
If you hadn't been busy with your exams, you would've known by now.

The May intake for Bachelor of Psychology has already started.
So why am I not in college?
The answer is quite simple.
I have changed my mind.

Why have I decided not to study Psychology?
The answer to this one, I'm afraid, is not that simple.
Let's just say that I know what I am not capable of.
I will leave it as that.

So what am I going to study then?
I have already registered to study Economics & Management in the UOL external programme at HELP.
It is a tough programme, I am told.
But the manager of the department seems to think that I am one of those promising students. Let us hope that he is right.

Folks, do not worry.
I have thought long and hard about this, and I have sought opinions from my parents, my uncle, my cousins, even their friends.
Econs feels right to me.

I imagine...
that every single one of my best friends would like to know what is going on with my life right now

Some of them do know a few things...
but none of them know everything...

So I'm thinking...
maybe I should just call a damn conference...

wth

so Bro, Xuan, Jon, Mel, Ken...when r u guys free? =p

I live in the now. I don't look back into the past, and I don't think much about the future.

So what kind of life do I want in 5 years, 10 years, 20 years?

Man, dear Alwin sure is helpful. Truth is I don't think/function that way.

But still, it's great to listen to others. Their perspectives broaden my horizon, that's for sure.

And when I've gathered enough information, I'll do this my own way.

yo, wat's up?

haha...i noe
it's been more than a month since my last post....

of course, there'd been lots of things happening in my life in this one month's time....
in fact, there are so many things i don't even know where to begin....
well hell, i don't even know whether i'll blog about anything at all....

so...folks....
do u wanna noe about....
my final exams?
my results?
my holiday activities?
my family vacation?
my health?
my new course in life?

every question has an interesting answer and a story behind it...
seriously

if you're interested enough...
u should ask me about it.....
haha
coz i've decided that since i'm long-winded, they would be really long stories....
and i'm not up to writing long stories now...

best of luck to everyone having exams soon....and everyone going into degree courses

I met up with my best friends.
The three of us sat and talked for two and a half hours.

For a person who has been emotionally detached from people around her for quite a while, it was great to talk to friends again.

Yeah, I’ve been locked in my own selfish world lately, with just me and my Korean idols in it. Sometimes, when I see people I know, I feel like running. I just don’t feel like saying hi to them.

Perhaps it is because none of the friends I see every day can really see me as I am.
So it was really great to chat with them.

But then, as we talked, I realized that there were things they know of each other, but unknown to me.
I felt left out.

It is foolish. But I have to be honest with myself. It is better to accept the feeling, than to deny it.

I hope, however, that they did not notice my disappointment, because my feelings had nothing to do with them.

I just wonder, if I am a selfish friend, too absorbed in my own world.
Am I always there for my friends?

Ps: If you really think that I would have harsh words to say about your video, think again.

PDP is Peer Development Program.....
It is one of the assignments for my Psych subject....
Basically it's just doing research on a topic, write a report and present it in about 30-40 minutes...
Of course, it's a group work.
On top of that, we have to choose one group and do critique on their presentation....

Well, since I cannot do a critique on my own group, I'll just do it here.
haha....no no kidding

Actually I've just finished my presentation an hour ago.

I think I should make a mental note on what I've learnt through this experience.
Teamwork

I'm not saying that my group did badly...
We did pretty well actually...
In fact, I wanna thank my groupmates for tolerating my procrastination...
and for their effort in making this assignment work =D

It's just that we had little communication, each doing our own parts, not knowing what others were doing....
and it had to be too much burden for that one member who contacted everybody...
So I think, that we would have done better if we worked as a team.
Well, I blame myself for not being initiative in communicating with my groupmates.

Nevertheless, it's ok. Because we grow as we learn from our mistakes and improve on our weaknesses.

Do I sound lame?
haha

-out-

I feel like a kid, afraid of getting caught lying.

Should I tell the truth, and face the punishment; or should I create a bigger lie, and get a chance to get away with it?

I suppose that facing the problem is the only way to solve it, but me being me, I go around it.

I'm not sure if I should be blogging about this.
Because I would sound as if I were boasting, or perhaps even showing off.
Well, I'd tell you that is not what I mean, but this is what really happened.

I had my macro quiz this morning [ok yesterday morning coz it's past midnight]
and if you've read my previous post, you'd know that I was drooling over SuJu and not studying.
and so I only spent an hour or two before the quiz to cram everything about AD-AS into my brain....

First, you have to know that we use some computer software to do our quiz...
and our marks will be shown once we click End.

I didn't expect to score high....
so I myself was stunned by my score
28/30

great.....now all my classmates are gonna kill me

E.L.F.s all over the world are going crazy!!!

alright...I don't necessarily call myself an E.L.F., but I am definitely a SuJu fan.

Super Junior has finally made their comeback this week.
First, they released the digital single 'Sorry Sorry' on monday....
[and then I went crazy]
and then they released the album 'Sorry Sorry' on thursday....
[and then I went crazier]
and then they performed on Music Bank and released the mv for 'Sorry Sorry' on Friday night...
[and then I don't care anymore]

omg....I don't even sound coherent!!!
I'll tell u why I went crazy.
The song is definitely addictive!!!!

and I'll tell u why I went crazier.
The album is, surprisingly, rather good, and worth buying!!!!!

and I'll tell u why I don't care anymore.
I kept waiting.....waiting.....waiting.....and waiting for the mv to come out.....
kept googling 'super junior sorry sorry mv'.....but nothing came out....
kept doing that for 2 days I tell u......2 days
n when it's finally out....I wasn't even online.....wth

and I'll tell u how crazy I can be.
I was gonna have a macro quiz the next morning, but I didn't study, instead I went and analyze the mv.....
crazy hor......

aiyo...Super Junior is damn distracting!!!!
I couldn't concentrate in class......and I couldn't focus for the whole week!!!!
yes....Blame it all on them!!!
and no Super Junior...u should not be singing Sorry Sorry....u should be saying Sorry Sorry to us fans!!!!

But I love u none the less!!! =P

Mr Alex was right.

I AM SICK.

I'm sick and tired of ppl telling me I'm very 'geng', just because of my results.
I'm sick and tired of ppl asking me tons of questions, just because they think I am better than them.
I'm sick and tired of ppl calling me smart, just because I know my own way of studying.
I'm sick and tired of ppl giving me too much credit.
I'm sick and tired of ppl having too high expectations of me.
I'm sick and tired of ppl judging me.

Because they just add to the shame and guilt I feel, for not living up to my own expectations.

I am sick and tired of myself, always criticizing me, but not doing anything to make me a better person.

I am sick and tired of myself, for judging me so harshly.

Tuesday was the due date for my stats assignment.

Unfortunately, I hadn't even started writing my real assignment till midnight. I had my answers, but I just hadn't pen it down.

So, I spent my whole sleeping time completing my assignment.

And that explains why I dozed off in macro class.

But here's the funny thing......

My lecturer, Mr Alex, was very considerate.
[In fact, I would say that he was very cute XP]

He said I was SICK.
[Goodness....he even made an excuse for me!!!!!]

Now, come to think of it....was he trying to make me feel GUILTY???

Well then, if that was the case, he damn well succeeded!!!

Don't get me wrong, Jon is my best friend, but sometimes I just feel like kicking his...... I mean, hitting him =P

Examples of times when I hate Jon.....

When he does not study, but gets good/at least average results.
[Especially when he only "flipped through" the textbook and yet remembers what he read ><]

When he knows what's right, but does the opposite.
[Classic example: his English essay. His English Grammar is good, but during exams, he can't even bother to write grammatically correct sentences......=.= all silly mistakes!!!]

When he knows what's best, but doubts himself.
[He's so smart he can figure out a lot of things by himself, but at times he just thinks too much....I don't mind that he turns to me for advice, I just wish that he wouldn't doubt himself so much......]

When he's being a smart ass. Damn annoying....
[Alright! Alright! I have no right to say that because I admit to be a smart ass myself....my sister would be the 1st to agree to that......but I'm not talking about me here XP]

When he calls me out just to go jalan-jalan....SAKIT KAKI....
uh huh.....this is where I'm getting at....
Last Saturday, he sent me an sms asking whether I was busy lately...
then said that he wanted to go somewhere public just to walk....
[just to comment on this: u don get a girl to go out with u just to WALK....we SHOP]
anyway, we decided to go to KLCC and Central Market the next day....

tried calling our useless friend Ken to go with us.....
but useless Ken never picked up his phone.....and didn't even bother to reply our sms =.=

so, we lied to our parents.....
Jon told his mom that he was going to KLCC with mt and 'a few others.....'
I told my parents that I was going to KLCC with my old 'friends'.....
yes, I knew you would ask "WHY?"
Because the parents would misunderstand and think that we were dating or something like that.....=.=
well, we don't blame them....because even some of our juniors did think that we were together
=.="

and so, we went to Suria KLCC....and walked the garden....
one big round......
[for goodness sake, he even suggested walking another round....summore almost noon dy...]

cannot blame anybody....
so cannot say anything oso liao.....
T.T

but silently cursing the jerk who picked up my phone

urgh....mourning my K550i

Just had my stats quiz....

Before the quiz I realized that I'd left my phone somewhere...
At first I thought I left it in the car, so I borrowed my friend's phone and called my mother to check if it's there...
She said no.
And then I thought about it again...
Hmm....maybe I left it on the dining table.....
Or...did I drop it when I got out of the car???
I don't think so leh....cuz I'd feel it if I'd dropped it....
So it's most probably on the dining table....
Aiyo....how forgetful!!! (x.x)

Haha...yesterday played cards at Mel's house...
won 10 bucks from Keng Fai =p
Raymond and Shu Hua going to Melbourne in 10....no....9 days' time.....
oh well....I'm sure soon there'll be more friends leaving to study abroad....
Just don't go without seeing me first....
Haha

I've thought of blogging about many things...
but I've never got to do it....
so.....why not write it all down at once???
hehe ^^

ok...I'll start with some happy ones....
I bought DBSK's Mirotic album!!!
we went to Rock Corner at The Curve...
wanted to know if the words inside the album were korean...so I asked the sales person to open it...and then she asked her colleague to play it...
haha.....their sound system rocks!!!
damn syok listening to Mirotic in the shop....
by the way...it's version C...
yalah yalah...I dunno why they wanna release so many versions...
I juz choose one and buy...

speaking of albums....my sis ordered DBSK's T Concert DVD online....
plus Super Junior Super Show.....
but Super Show no more stock!!!
isk... sometimes I'd wish they don't have so many fans...
I want that DVD!!!
speaking of which....is Super Show still on in Malaysia???
I wanna go!!
but when?????????

and still speaking of albums....I realized that I got my All The Right Reasons at a really good price!!!
bought it last holiday
it's the special edition....so it's imported...
saw it somewhere where it's sold at rm93.... but I bought it at less than rm65...
wahahahaha

oh....and dunno whether Nickelback's new album Dark House is good or not...
but I like their single Gotta Be Somebody

and....I recently downloaded some songs of 陈奕迅...
have always liked a few of his songs...such as 最佳损友，富士山下，夕阳无限好...
haha....I have these songs....but just downloaded a few more like 浮夸，十面埋伏，Lonely Christmas, Shall We Talk....
I'm sure there are more songs that I'd like...but he has so many....
so.....anybody wanna recommend???

right...I seem to be blogging a lot about music....
aiya....don't care.....just one more......
this time it's Big Bang's.......youngest member Seungri
bear in mind that this guy is 19 years old....
recently released a single called Strong Baby...
I think the song is much too 'sexual'.....
for god's sake...he's exactly my age!!
too much of a Maroon 5 fan perhaps????

and has anyone heard of the Korean version of Meteor Garden 流星花园???
it's called Boys Over Flowers/Boys Before Flowers....
it's currently airing in Korea....
haha....I was curious and watched the first episode....
it seems to be quite intriguing/interesting/promising.....
it's said that the whole drama has 24 episodes...but it's currently aired till episode 10....
aiyo.....means it'll only end in late March....
best not watch anymore....I'll wait till end of semester...

right...that's all for now

as usual....get scolded every day.....
so i feel bad every day.....

getting moody like Jon lah....
haha

omg....i oni juz found out tht he's the head of 6th form council....
WHAT THE........

=.=

You asked,
How is it that i understand so much about you

I couldn't come up with a good answer,
and so I said,
It comes naturally

You didn't buy any of it....
and you're still seeking for an answer....

You were right
It's definitely not time...
That is why I didn't say it's because I've known you for years....
So, what is it?

Perhaps it is the time that we have spent together
the things we have experienced together
the thoughts, feelings, knowledge, even gossips that we have shared
The things which made us such close friends

Perhaps it is because we are so close....
that I understand how your mind works
and can easily pick up your various expressions
your different moods
your every thought

Perhaps it is simply because we think alike

I can think of a dozen more reasons
But it doesn't matter
Because they are not the answers that you're looking for....

The question that you really wanted to ask was,
"How do I make him understand me?"

I cannot answer you that, but I will tell you this....
Don't push it
I have once tried to make someone understand me
But in the end, I gave up
Because I learnt that we can never MAKE others understand us
Or rather, some people just won't understand.....

So, don't get too disappointed
Just be content with the friendship and love that you have
Then, you will be happier

Love you always, MT

Bro asked me how my new sem is.....
i said i'm starting to 'get a hang of it'....
well, i don't think that's how i should use the expression.......
since i'm in my last sem already....

but yeah....
i'm starting to get into the mood of having to deal with classes, assignments and exams....
be it tedious, challenging, confusing, difficult, interesting.....
bring it on....
that is the right kind of attitude, right?
afterall, i'll have to go through them anyway.....

i'm taking Statistics, Macroeconomics and Psychology for Personal Development....
this time around, it's easy to get familiar with the classes...
since all 3 lecturers have taught me in the previous semesters.....
i know their style and what i like about them, but i also know what i don't like about them....
hmm, i'm not sure if that's a good thing........ o.o

oh, and i shall tell you my results for last semester.....
Critical Thinking Skills-------------Credit
Advanced English-------------------Distinction
Microeconomics---------------------Distinction
Principles of Accounting-----------High Distinction
Moral Studies------------------------C

ah, well....
it is pretty much what i predicted it to be.....
though i was hoping to get HD for Micro.....
it's just a tiny regret that i didn't put more effort into understanding market structures then....
but bear in mind that the finals was not easy at all....=.=

as for CTS, i know that it's quite impossible for me to get a distinction.....
but still, now i have a Credit in my overall results.....
tak cantik lah....everything else is Distinction & High Distinction... T_T

well, no more Credits.....
this time around, i'm going to get at least Distinctions for all 3 subjects....
just wait and see.....

it's my 2nd day in college
but me still blur blur leh.......

haiz....tht's why sometimes i hate holidays....
i'm still caught in between holidays n school!

feel like banging my head on the wall or sth like tht to wake myself up......
=.=

i've got lots of stuff to blog about....
but i don think i'm in the mood.....
well, be back later
