Ashamed but (also) Proud!

I am ashamed. It's been.........five months since my last post. FIVE MONTHS! :O I'm so sorry my dear blog for having neglected you. Jangan merajuk ya? ;) I was thinking what I should blog about and it suddenly struck me! On the 23rd of October, I officially graduated from UKM! :D I don't have my pictures with me. They're all in my computer at the moment. (I'm typing this in my Materials class in the faculty computer lab. Oops, Dr. Hope you don't mind :p) But I promise will try to upload the pictures and blog about my PROUD moment soon! :) Let's hope I can begin blogging regularly again. Stay tuned! ;)

Muchas Gracias, Profesora

I was actually very nervous about Spanish exam. I mean, actually I was thinking, Nah. I'll be okay. Spanish is okay. I did fine for my quiz. I'm not doing too bad. Spanish won't be all that bad. But I have this phobia about thoughts like that. Whenever such thoughts cross my mind, I'll shut them out. I'll tell myself not to be over-confident. Cos it just might bite me in the butt. Maybe to teach me a lesson (for being too confident) I'll do badly in the exam. Sounds like a jinx, huh? Although I don't believe in jinxes. >.< So I (kinda) worked hard. Went through our entire text book and work book. Did some exercises online. Prepared and wrote out sample essays for possible topics. Here's one, entitled "Hobbies":       Soy una chica normal. Pero tengo muchas aficiones! Me encanta cantar. Todos los dias, yo canto en el bano! Mis amigas dicen estoy ruidosa! Sin embargo, yo todavia canto en el bano. Tambien, me gusta muchi...

Examen Segundo

My, oh my. How time has flown ! I just spent the past 3 hours (re-)watching How I Met Your Mother episodes. @.@ Phew. Sociolinguistics----DEAD AND GONE !!! whoooooooooooooooooohoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo~ :P Although I had a minor panic attack last night (there was just so much to study and so much to memorize and I only finished writing my notes at like 9.00pm at night and the exam's in the morning but I haven't even started memorizing all the stuff yet and what if what I wrote in my notes to study for and focus on is not coming out in the exam but what I chose and decided to leave out--cos there's just too freakin' much to READ--is what's really coming out for exams and OMG I don't have much time to even really memorize what I already have OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG I'm so gonna dieeeeeeee T.T) I got relatively calmer by 1.00 am in the morning. Which was scary really, cos I was worried I would not be able to wa...

One Down

Image
I just completed my first paper today--  GGGD 4123 Pembangunan Insan dan Kewarganegaraan . YES !!!! :D I slept early last night.  Well, I was in bed  by 12.00 am. Snuggled up under the covers of my blankie and made sure that I had TWO alarms set for 6.30 am and 6.35 am. (Just in case I snoozed the first.) I lay there and closed my eyes, expecting sleep to come immediately, as usual. But when a text message came in at 1.04 am, I was awake to read it. (It was from Nana, about whether I wanted to order Chinese food for dinner this week. In case you were wondering.) My mind was too filled with all the stuff I was memorizing for the morning's paper. Rasional Pendidikan Sivik dan Kewarganegaraan, Matlamat, Skop Kandungan, Pendekatan, Strategi and  Penilaian. Pemupukan Nilai-nilai Murni di sekolah, Peranan Guru sebagai Pelindung, Model Tingkah Laku dan Mentor . Teori Evolusi Darwin, Teori Machiavelli, Fahaman Marxisme, Teori Psikoanalitik Sigmund F...

A Pretty Good Day

Image
For the first time in days, I was completely absorbed in my studying that I'd forgotten about the world outside. I was rushing to finish going through the text book and slides for my first paper so I could try out some sample questions before the Big Day. Hence, the furious mugging. Only today, though. Still, an achievement, eh? :D Then, a knock on my door. "Sasaaaa~" My ex-roomie, feeling bored, came up to my room to "stretch her legs" and " kacau " me. (Her words, not mine :P) In less than half an hour since she'd dropped by my room, we'd made plans to head out to Kajang for dinner at 99 Food Court--a place I'd last been to eat TWO YEARS AGO. Yeah, I know. I gotta get out more @.@ While I ran to the toilet for my pre-going-out pee and ran back to my room to grab my purse and change, I thought about the last time I'd gone out with my ex-roomie. Just me and her. *gasp* I couldn't r...

Life is Boring By Myself

Image
I am seriously baffled. I know I get this "disease" every time exam season comes around. But I have yet to comprehend this strange sickness that I seem to be inflicted with. Why do I never do the things I'm supposed  to do? And do everything else that I'm not  supposed to do? >.< Sigh. My days are boring nowadays. It's just me, my lappie baby, and the four walls of my room. Oh, and ze  books, of course. You get so comfortable that you don't feel like leaving the room. At all. Not even to pee. Sometimes. =.= The only thing I ever look forward to each day? Dinner time. When I get to: watch How I Met Your Mother  episodes on my lappie baby, while I: Slurp on yummy Korean Shin Ramyon ! (Seriously. I LOVE this ! Wayyyyyy better than Maggi Curry la~ ) Now that Adrian's drama performance was over last Wednesday.... Wait, let me digress for a second to rave about it. Oh. Am. Gee. The Fruitcake Special put on by the Cohor...

Choices Choices

Image
Study Week has always been hard. Close friends know that I have a problem with making decisions. (Sometimes. Less now. But sometimes. I'm working on it.) And there are just soooo many choices to be made during this critical period ! Which do I do first? This? While doing this? Or watch 10 episodes of this in one sitting? Or camwhore with my new falsies :D (I just bought these at the Cheras Pasar Malam   !  What do you think? :P) Or sometimes, just look out my window and stare at the melor  flowers outside. (Ah, yes. That's my missing window pane >.<) Or would you rather stare at these  all day? >.< Which would you  choose? >.< I have to say that I lost the battle today. I spent all day on FB, email, Youtube and blogs. I read a couple of slides from my notes. And then spent the rest of the night rewatching old episodes of How I Met Your Mother (cos it's so AWESOME I ...

On a Rainy Day

Image
The weather in Malaysia is absolutely crazy. It might be scorching hot in the morning and afternoon, then rain buckets in the evening. Or it could just simply be sunny and warm, then drizzly in the afternoons. Either way, while the rain is cooling, and normally gives me an urge to cuddle under the covers in my bed and not go anywhere, it's annoying when you're still out of your room and figuring out how to get back without getting wet. I'm not such a princess that I can't  get wet from the rain. But come onnnnn. Jeans? No no no no no. Not when I'm wearing jeans. When they're wet, I feel icky. >.< I'd rather not walk, but taking a bus when it's raining is most probably going to be a herculean effort of trying to squeeze yourself into an already full bus. Coupled with the fact that you'd be pressed up against others who are equally as damp and sticky as you are from the rain. Or they'd have umbrellas dripping rain water all over your...
