To all Malaysians,
Selamat Hari Kebangsaan Ke-49!!!!

Woww!! 49 years of independence already... next year will be the big 50!!! OooOOooOO!!!!! don't really celebrate national day... only remembered that i love it coz of holiday. and when the clock strikes twelve, i would run to my window and scream MERDEKA just for the sake of screaming and hoping to wake the whole neighbourhood up :p Miss Malaysia so much!! Realized after I came to NZ, i became more patriotic. just seeing the word Malaysia already makes me all happy and proud to be a msian. Hence, I still hv my msian accent despite living in moo-moo land for 5 yrs. Remembered my first year at NZ and it was the commonwealth games and I got so happy when I see the Msian flag or when the national anthem is being played.

teeheee.. that's a picture last year during Race Relations Day at Macleans. Go the Msian flag!! Weeee!!!!


And now, a big Happy 18th Birthday to Miao Sern!!! Merdeka baby!! Happy birthday dude!!! You've been such a wonderful friend. Super funny and dodgy at the same time. Never knew u were so dodgy until selangor age group this year. Gosh!!! You can turn the most innocent comment into something dodgy. Crazzzyy!!! It's all good man, u make me laugh. May you be blessed with ....ermm.... heaps of hot chics in oz!!! bet u hv a long list!! go get em'!!!! All the best in your studies too!!! You can DO IT!!!!! ...... all night long? heeeheeeheeee

bloody freaking idiots!!!

urghhh!!!! never been so angry so rude in my whole entire life!! yelled at this indian lady (wife of indian dude who knocked into me but it's my fault) on the phone!! urgh!! she said to call back at 1, i called bck at 1, no one picked up and she blamed me... far out!!!! i want to just go stranggle her and if i can, i'll strangle him as well and they both can go die!! and now he sent his car for repair already that's gonna cost 1136.. dude!! i'm not gna pay that much!!!! i found a cheaper one, and since i'm the person paying for it, i have the rights to choose where he shld go send his car for repair! last night i told him that i can only afford 600 and i'm not totally in the wrong... we're both in the wrong.. i'm the wrong for not checking my blindspot and just turn out and u're in the wrong for not looking far ahead and brake in time...he said no so i brought it up to 800...so i pay 70% and he pay 30%..freaking idiot! u think u can scare me and go to police and bring it to court? go ahead dude!!! u don't have insurance at all and your WOF have expired... haha! shame!!! no, i didn't tell him that yet... don't want to lay out all my cards....

so anyway.. this morning i went to a car repair shop... at these kinda times, it's good to know chinese... speak to her in chinese and told her what happened and everything in chinese!! showed her the quotation that freaking idiot gave me and she said she can do it for 800 and she's willing to let the person borrow a car from them for FREEso he can drive around whilst they repair the car!! good deal? hell yeah!! came home and called the stupid idiot up but not in... then yea, call at 1, not in again.. i just called and he's not in but wife's in and that's when all the yelling happened.. he sent his car to the garage without telling me!! plus, he did told me he will be sending his car to the garage for repair on thursday... that means i have today to find cheaper quotations..that's what i thought.. but no, he send it today... screw him man!!! u think i don't know my days? today is wednesday.. i don't care... i'm not paying freaking 800... i'm paying 70% for 800...hmph!!!! i guess i haven't gone to my extreme.. i was on the verge of swearing at her and curse her and make racist comments to insult her... no, i did not do that.. all i did was raise my voice.. she found it rude but hey!! she was raising her voice too! man i could so imitate her with her accent!!! No, i don't have anythings against any races. if i hv to come up with a racist comment, all i would say is bloody *inserts race*... haha!! it's insulting enough. bloody asians, bloody pakehas, bloody indians, bloody pakehas, bloody blacks...see!!! somebody shoot me! i'm so rude!!

AHHH!!! so nice to let it all out... feel kinda bad to be so rude..never been so rude before... i think i'm still gna be rude again tonight when i call the fella up... right now.....*breathe in breathe out*

"Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one getting burned."

I'm all good now!!!! heeeheeeheeee!!!


ps:/ sorry if i offended any of you... no, i'm not like this all the time.. just the dark side of me that comes out once in a blue moon!

photospot destruction

This is what happens when you've reached the point of extreme exhaustion- your mind starts playing tricks on you and you start getting crazy and do stupid stuff.

Here's a video of what yingswan and i did:


Revival of the Fairtytale's Photospot Destruction during the umsa ball

Listen to the end of it- it's when we realized our actions have consequences

Luckily nothing happened!!!!

Revival of the Fairytale

Wow!!! I didn't blog since Wednesday. Not bad not bad... ehehehe...
Have been pretty busy. Today after sooooo long, I'm actually free and even felt bored at times.

Anyhuuzzz...Recap for the past few days

Thursday: Functional Anatomy Test - wasn't as bad as I expected

Friday: Sports and Society Test - worst than I expected. Skit practice at night. Left my wallet in the car so didn't have money to go for dinner. Waited for brother till 9 something then only went home. Had BK for dinner. Stayed up till 4.30 making Zaf's present.

Saturday: Woke up at 7.30 to vacuum the house. Went to peiyun's house to borrow a bag from her for the ball (yes, I do not own any evening bags :S). Went to placemakers after that to get cardboard boxes. Went to crowne hotel to do the deco and skit practice again. Reached city and spent heaps of time finding a parking as well as finding a place to keep my jelly. In the end, I decided to fork out 5 bucks for parking and risk my jelly being spoilt. It was fine in the end. Reached the hotel 1 hour late. Thank goodness there's a thing called Malaysian time and they haven't started. Phew!!! Haven't been this late for soooooooooooooooooooooo long. Can't even remember the last time being that late. Went back to Wellesley after that to do the card guards. So hard cutting the boxes. Yingswan was finishing up zaf's present. It was 6.15 and we were still at wellesley. Meant to be at railway by 6.30 But you see, because of Malaysian time, it doesn't matter again. Hehehehe...was there before the suprise.

Happy Birthday Zaf!!!!! Hope you enjoyed the suprise party :D It's been great knowing you. Can still remember the very first time I met you was during my very first time to sports sunday and you were teaching me how to pass the netball. Hehehehe....
Reached home around 10.30 with yingswan. She stayed a night at my place. We slept at 1 hoping the panda eyes will disappear the next day.

Sunday:
OooOO!!!the day of the ball. Woke up at 7. Left the house at 8 to go to the hotel. Started on deco. Panic panic panic!!!! So much stuff to do. Had so much trouble with the photospot. It looked ugly with the paper. Not properly done. Arghh!! Thank goodness it turned out alright in the photos. I think... and with all the props, ppl didn't really notice the ugly corners, i hope!! We were running out of time. Everyone was so busy. Meant to finish by 3 but ended up leaving for nat's place at 4.45. The backdrop wasn't even up when yingswan and i left. By the time we showered, do hair, do makeup, it was already 6.50. On the ticket, it says 6. Thanks again to Malaysian time!! ahhh!! have been counting on it the last few days. Bad bad bad. Feel so bad. I hate being late. I'm not gonna be late anymore from now on!!

The ball was awesome! Very different compared to college ball. College ball was all dancing the whole night, no proper seatings, no performances and all finger food. This ball had a proper seat for everyone of us, buffet (tho i wld hv to say that the food could hv been better coz i did enjoy last year's finger food a lot!), band performances and skit!!! Even had lucky draws but I do have to say, the MCs could have been more entertaining and enthusiastic about it. But overall, it was great!! Enjoyed myself and I reckon' it ended too soon!!! But somehow didn't have the fairytale effect for me tho.... Where's my prince charming? I didn't see mine nor did I see any potential ones. Guess he still sesat. Havent' make it to Auckland yet. Nevermind, I shall wait patiently :D



Monday:
Went for the afterball. first time swan and i go clubbing. Hehehehe.... no bouncers so swan can go. it was just dancing and dancing and dancing. quite nice coz i felt like jumping around after the ball. sitll very energetic. plus, during the ball, it was all slow, lovey derby kinda songs, not suitable for the single ppl!!!! hmph!!! for others, it was dancing and drinking. i didn't drink. wanted to get a drink since i never got one before but was put off by the price..yingswan's one was 13 bucks!! ripping ppl off only....CRAZZYYY!!! Left the place at 4. Gta admit, the highlight for that day was between 4am-6am. wahahahhahaa!!! I've got videos but mean to put it up. I'll only give it to you if you were there to see it for urself or you've asked permission from those who were in the video.

Only had 1.5 hrs of sleep then had to wake up and drive my car away. Waited outside rec centre till 11am coz have to give yuen and wibian a ride back to my place. Whilst waiting, saw the parking wardens walking around and they chased me off coz i never pay for parking. WTF? I'm in the car!!!!! GrrRRr!! So I started to find yuen's place located on hobson st. Took quite a long time finding it coz it's a one way street and I only been there once and it was by foot. Found it in the end and it's located next to la porchetta. So hopefully next monday I wont have trouble finding la porchetta!! Saw them load their snowboards and luggage into the car. Then they started talking about what they're gonna do this ski trip. ARghh!! Make me feel so jealous!! I wanna go i wanna go!! GrRrRrRRRRR!!!

Reached home at 1 and slept till 5.30. It was a good sleep. The sun was shining into my room so I slept under the warm sun. Nice!!! At night, slept at 10.30. Haven't slept this early for so long!!!
++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Now, the ball's over. No more busy days, no more travelling much to city. I still want my sports sunday tho!!!!!! Pictures of the ball will be in my msn space soon. Will put up the link when i've uploaded them. Bye for now and hope you guys have a great week!

Those that went to the ball, hope you guys enjoyed it!!!!

If only...

This morning....
If only...

If only I wiped the mirrors
If only I wiped the windows
If only I signalled earlier
If only I switched lane earlier or
If only I stayed on the same lane....

Then today would have been a good day.
(good breakfast,going to hv good lunch,8 out of 10 for my last minute assignment, spanish test yesterday went well)

*sigh*

I should be removed from the road, I should be banned from driving.
I'm going to get scolded, I even know what's going to come out from her mouth.
Lots of money wasted just because of my stupid, careless actions.

Now tell me, how am I supposed to enjoy anything at all? I won't and I can't.
*sigh* At this point, this week is definitely not going to get better.

You guys have a great week!!!

feeling sick...

urghh...feeling so sick... since friday night, i've been eating out and i think my tummy is not used to it. friday ate at bbq king for dinner then bubble tea for...supper? had mcds for breakkie on sat morning and tummy ache the whole day. not a comfortable feeling at all when u have to drive around the whole day without a map, getting lost, making so many stops and with 4 other ppl (swan,puili,jeremy, caleb) in the car.

went to:

spotlight in panmure - sylvia park- warehouse stationery at mt.wellington- first scene at new north road - party hire at dominion road - geoff's emporium at i dno where - warehouse along balmoral road

are those places even call central auckland? or is it west auckland? gahhh...newayz, i hv very bad sense of direction for all those places except the first three stops. signboards were clear and i hv been to spotlight and mt.wellington. the roads were pretty busy and getting lost didn't help at all. don't know how many u-turns, 3 point turns i made that day. arms also tiring. tummy also hurt like hell. only travelled 75kms but it seemed longer. gahh! i rather drive to hamilton and back than going around busy auckland. the only thing i got out from it was.... i get to know all these places better.

for dinner, didn't really eat. ate a cookie and a few strands of udon noodles from yingswan. went home and....diarrhoea. watched some prison break and fell asleep halfway.

this morning, woke up at 8. i think i'm used to getting up early until i want to sleep in also cannot. body clock not allowing it to happen. Decided to change my bedsheet (haven't change since the term started), vacuum the house (dad's been doing it and he only does upstairs so my room isn't vacuumed since the term started as well), do the laundry and sun out the clothes. watched a bit more of pb then had to go out for dim sum. just one more episode to go!! couldn't eat much for dim sum, don't know why. but main reason i wanted to go was to have some family time. dad's going back on wednesday :(

went to city after that for skit practice. later, went to have laksa at food alley with yean, daniel, darren, kevin and chris. went home....diarrhoea. was it the dim sum or the laksa? don't know. maybe it's just me, tummy can't handle too much outside food. took a nap after that, woke up at 9 and then....vomitted. shucks man! what's wrong with me. i think my body is giving up on me. bad eating habits, late night sleeps accompanied with early mornings.

Time to take care of my body. Sleep earlier, wake up a bit earlier, prepare breakfast, pack lunch... i should be fine for this week then.

Three tests:
Tuesday: Spanish 10%
Thursday: Funtional Anatomy 20%
Friday: Sports and Society 15%

After this week, two weeks break!!! More like.. study break and chance to do assignment. 2 assignments due few weeks after the break and a 28% Medsci test first week back.

Not feeling too good at the moment for some reasons. This weekend wasn't THAT fun. There were some laughters in it but not enough. Too much other stuff going on in the back of my head at the same time. Can laugh outside but inside ...... ANYHUUZZZZ, let's not elaborate on it. I'll share the fun stuff with you all.

Let me present....................................



leg-eating shermayne (maybe that's how i got my tummy ache)

evil jeremy haunting yingswan (yingswan gets 'geli' with all these stuff.. u shld've been there to hear her scream..sorry swan!! embarass u again:p)

Enjoy your week everyone!!!

- i better hv sum1 2 talk to in the bus orelse...

birthday shout-outs

Just watched The Lake House. gahh! was too sleepy so I didn't really understand the whole thing. Got kinda confused. At times, it was kinda boring and I fell asleep for awhile. My brother didn't really enjoy it eventhough he understood most of it. But at least the ending is good. So yea, if you go watch it, pay attention and make sure u're not sleepy!!

"I sometimes feel as if I'm invisible, as if no one can see me at all"

" One man I can never meet. Him, I would like to give my whole heart to"

"I'll wait! Don't give up on me."

sunny day at tamaki

Today's been pretty good despite the chilly weather in the morning till lunch time, the bus ride where I had to sit alone and just thought about stuff and came up with .... just not happy thoughts... that always happen during lonely bus rides. Other than that, today's GREAT!!

> Didn't sleep in spanish
> Didn't sleep in functional anatomy
> Petrol price gone down by 5 cents - 1.71.9 now!!
> Sunny weather
> Managed to get quite a lot of readings done
> Finally finished my notes on the reproductive system
> Had japanese food for dinner with brother and his friends and Ajita!!!
> Sat under the sun for 2 whole hours doing my readings and enjoying the sun at the same time and snapped pictures of Auckland Uni Tamaki campus.


Have I shown you Tamaki Campus? It's definitely not like the city campus at all.

Tamaki Campus at 3.43 p.m. on a sunny day - TODAY!!

Beautiful sky... warm weather... YES, this is where I have two of my classes. Not a single soul to be found when classes go on.

And that's ermm......me! Enjoying the sun whilst doing my readings and cam-whoring. Ahhh! Nice feeling!

++++++++++++++++++++++++

That's it for today. I know I've been really slack with the bersatu diary. It's been more than a month since I came back and I'm still on the pre-bersatu days. But I PROMISE, I'm gna finish it ONE day. And you know me, I keep to my promises :)

So... here's Day 4 - of sleeping, laundry and superman...

weekend recap

Weekend Recap

Saturday
Went to the uni at 10 to get some study done with yingswan. Swan was there since 9 and when I came, she said she's not even done a question. Later I found out this girl was blogging instead of studying.. bad swan!! bad bad swan!! haha!! Me coming didn't help much either. We were spending most of our time laughing and making jokes. Finally the other side of her came out and play today!! Told you everyone's dodgy except some chose to keep it all to themselves:p Good that you decided to share now. Haha!!!

At 2, it was time for the skit filming at Mission Bay! Was hoping for a sunny weather so it won't be too freezing. But Mr.Sun wasn't co-operating much. He was playing hide and seek. Sometimes he's out, sometimes he's not. *sigh* Then again, it's good in a way if the weather isn't too good. Like Darren said, if it's raining, there won't be much people around looking at us. Hence, it won't be too embarassing.

There weren't much people at mission bay but there were still some. Must be entertaining standing by the side watching a bunch of crazy asians playing in the fountain during WINTER!! You could see the smiles on their face. Lolx!! Thank goodness we were entertaining enough that they also got carried away and didn't call the securities/cops. Not even sure if we're allowed to go into the fountain coz there was a sign saying NO SWIMMING. Blehhh....

Had BK after that and then went home. Then had vietnamese with my brother for dinner. So full!! Overall, it was a fun fun fun day!! Really enjoyed myself. Good way to start the weekends after a not-so-good week.


Sunday:
No Super Sports Sunday :( Went to the gym with yingswan at 9 something. Our plans for the day:

9-10.30: Gym and shower
10.30-3: Study
3-5: Lunch and shopping

Before gym, went to weigh myself. I got the shock of my life! I stood on it and waiting for it to go up to 54 and stop somewhere there. Mana tahu it went all the way up to 65 and counting. Yeeeee-errrrrrr... then i heard this idiot laughing behind my back. Notti notti Swan!!!! Put her leg on the scale. Wahlauu!! scare me only. GrrrRrRr!! At least I got you after that!!

Was quite productive for today's study. Why? Coz I sat by the computers and Yingswan sat by the tables. Hence, we couldn't talk and distract each other. But, our study stopped at 1.30. We went to Rasa Sayang for lunch with David, Natalie and Gladys. Stupid weather again. It rained, it was windy. ARghh!!!

After lunch, it was already close to 3. Hence, both of us decided.... shopping time! Yingswan's wants to get shoes for the ball. As for me, I just wanted to escape studying and jalan-jalan a bit. Went to no.1 shoe warehouse, the shoes were...... kinda UGLY. Went to Hannah's after that. First shoe I picked up, $99.95. Man! I don't think she'll be getting anything out of this shop. Then, I saw the under $40 section. No need to see the others, just go to that section straight away. Saw one really nice shoe but it was sort of out of the under 40 section. Picked it up and WOAHH!!! the price was BEAUTIFUL too!! She got it! It's a nice shoe and can even wear with jeans. it looked good with her jeans :D Good buy, good buy.

Think Yingswan was in a good mood so she decided to donate 1 buck to Youthline and got a sling bag as well. This results in me walking around Queen St. looking like that:

Yes, I was her partner for the day. Carried her gym bag and then her shopping bag as well. X marks the spot! Hai-yak!!

So this week's Sunday wasn't too bad afterall despite the crappy weather and no Super Sports. Had quite a huge dosage of laughter.

Now, it's good-bye to the weekends and Hello to yet another week of school. It better be better than last week. I don't want another crappy week. I've got enough pimples from last week. And I'm expecting more on my last week before the holz.

Have a great week ahead everyone and let's all wish for a sunny and happy week!!

all we need is a hug

A hug can brighten a person's day, a hug can do miracles. A hug says it all - " I care, I love you." That's all we need in life. To be cared for and to be loved. That's what keeps us going.

Yesterday, my brother's CCM's friend, Lynie, msged me on msn and said :"can you give your brother a big bear hug and say 'god's goin to prove you wrong, he's goin to blow you away with his miracles!' ? " I said YES straight away, just my nature, I don't say NO to ppl. But I was thinking, should I actually do it? I don't hug my brother randomly, only when I don't see him for ages then I will give him a hug. Besides, would he even believe the words that come out from my mouth knowing that I don't believe in God? What's the point saying something that I don't mean it and he knows that I don't mean it as well?

In the end, I decided to go ahead with it. Why? Coz my instinct said so. Somehow, I believe that if I said that to him and gave him a big hug, he would be happy, he would smile. I'm sure Lynie had a reason behind all this. Maybe it's because he didn't agree with something God said hence she said God's gna prove him wrong. Maybe he didn't believe God is that powerful, hence she said God's gna blow him away with his miracles. Maybe.... all my brother wanted was a hug from me!!!! HAha!! I don't believe in God, but deciding to go ahead with it and say that to my brother makes it seem that I want my brother to not stop believing in God. I guess it's because I just want him to be happy and not lose hope.

Some time last year, he seemed kinda sad. But later on after joining the youth group and going to church occasionally, he seemed a happier person. I suppose he's found someone there to guide him and to give him hope. I'm happy for him eventhough it meant that we're not sharing the same beliefs anymore. I just want people to be happy, that's the only thing that matters.

So today, after dinner, I gave him a hug.

"Koko, come here, I've got something to give you."
*big big bear hug along with the lines I took some time memorising*

End result: A giggle and a smile that lasted for quite some time. Maybe from the stairs (where I hugged him) till he sat down on the computer in the living room.

As for me, I felt like I've spreaded happiness in a way. It felt great. Ok, so I said something I don't believe in. Blehhh.... But if that is what it takes for a person to be happy, I would do that anytime :) Love making ppl happy, of course, a hug has to be in it :D

- sometimes all we need is a lil bit of love

of assignment

3.40 a.m. and this girl here is still wide awake. Decided to come on and blog because I've only got one more article to go. Done two in the last 5 hours. 2.5 hours per article. I'm planning to start my next one at 4, finish by 6, shower, breakfast, then uni. If I don't, I still got 10-11 later part of TODAY to finish it. But, I'm not planning to do that. That's super super last minute. And I'm planning to use that super super last minute to proof read and print them out from the uni. Quite proud of myself, I know I will be able to finish up yet another last minute assignment. wahahahahahaa....when will I learn? when will I learn? when will I learn not to do things last minute? *sigh* Can't wait to finish up this assignment, I will be so happy. Can't believe I actually got so disturbed by it until I couldn't laugh much, felt so dull and ....... pimples on my face. Eeeek!!! Hmmnn...imagine my last week before the holzz.. 3 tests, 10%, 20% and 15%. wahhhhhhhh!! My Clearasil usage will be shooting up!!!

Ok, time to tackle my last one now.

Enjoy the last two school days of this week!! Then bring on the wknds!! what to do this wknd? i dno still...gahhh....sleeping in this time i suppose? ok ok, i'll go now...go go go go go!!!


ps:/ - i'm the 1st to pay up my ball ticket :p swan's second. i'm 55 bucks poorer :(

sien

2nd post today. not really, it's past midnight. thank goodness i never limit myself to a certain no. of posts i can post this semester. i'd die.

why blogging now? i don't exactly know. i feel very......very sien. or lost. i don't know also. just a feeling i don't really like right now. that's it. why? honestly, no idea. weird right? no, i think it's just my 10% assignment and i can't think of what to write. one whole day tmrw to do it. i better feel better tmrw and turn my brain on. Plus, the idea of having no sports this wknd, what's there to look forward to? Sien la.... good in a way i can spend the wknd doing some study but.... no, that's not how shermayne's weekend goes. Hope yingswan can get the tennis courts and then go play tennis on sunday. and hope it doesn't rain.

aiihhhh...still sien.... ishh...blogging is not helping... maybe i shld just go to bed then i won't feel sien. according to chia wen's definition of "sien", "sien" is when you have lots of things to do but you don't feel like doing it and u just sit there, do nothing and procrastinate. i like that definition of sien.

ok, good night and sweet dreams!!

ps:/ i've decided to use my phone as my alarm instead of my radio clock coz music can't wake me up aymore. first time this year i went to uni without a shower.

Welcome back mr.Sun

TODAY:
Rainy Rain Rain has gone. Sunny Sun Sun is back from vacation!! Windy wind wind still here but it's ok, lil shermayne don't mind the wind as long as it's not strong and chilly.

I like August.

Today's the 8th of August!!!!!!

8th August - Happy Birthday 4th Auntie!! Best aunt on earth, love her to bits!! Took care of me since I was young, disciplined me well (my mom wasn't fierce enough for a child like me), wonderful cook, makes the best dumpling on earth, knew how I felt last year when I was feeling down, my hairdresser since I was young till I came to NZ, taught me how not to take things for granted, taught me that there's no point putting a sour face if I can't get something ... Without her, I don't think I would be the person I am today. I would be a super spoilt kid, selfish and will get angry easily if things don't go my way. Thanks a lot!! I love you heapsss and I will not disappoint you!!!

of gloomy weather but still a good wknd...

*sigh* This weekend has been pretty gloomy. Weather sucked. Mr.Sun went for a weekend vacation so Mr.Clouds and his whole family decided to come. The sky isn't a really big place for them so they piled up on top of each other. Hence, the gloominess. As if it wasn't enough, Mr.Clouds also invited his cousin, Mr.Rain. Man, I seriously hope Mr.Sun comes back from his vacation tomorrow. I miss Mr.Sun!!!!

Yesterday, was freezing. Usually when it rains, it's not freezing but yesterday was freezing. Wet and freezing. Ishh!!! Drove to city to pick up yingswan, caleb and puili and then drove to Spotlight at Panmure to check out the deco materials for the ball. Somehow on Friday we counted more than 5 ppl so I decided to take the Odyssey. GAhh!! ended up only 4 of us, shld have just driven the Mirage. Geram-nya!!! Why? Odyssey = big car = huge petrol consumption = heart-broken shermayne. Ohhhh wellzzzz... Felt pretty tensed at Spotlight. A budget of 400 to decorate the place is very minimal. Especially with a theme like this - Revival of the Fairytale. Kept on changing our plans on how to decorate the place since we are on a tight budget. Thank goodness I don't need to think of how my ball dress is gonna be. That's one less thing on my list to think of. Why? Coz I don't really care if i dress to the theme or not. Doesn't bother me. The only thing I care about is money. Haha! And yes, what I'm wearing is cheap as usual. My ball dress have always been less than 50 NZD.

6th form: 75 ringgit(las vegas theme). 7th form: 10 NZD top plus aunt's skirt (night in paris theme). See! I don't dress to the theme :p

This year: Not telling how much is it until the ball's over. Let's just say it's less than the ball ticket. If u wna kno now, ask me. Yes, that's gna be my date: Mr.Crazy Frog. At least he's dressing to the theme - How many frogs do I have to kiss till I meet my prince charming? :p


Came home and went for dim sum. It was a bit late for dim sum, was 1 something already when we reached there. All the nice desserts were gone, so disappointing. But, I still ate a lot. So full as I had breakfast in the morning already.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Today, Super Sports Sunday. Netball at 9. Bugger! So early!! Slept at 3 the night before. If it weren't for Yingswan, I probably wld have missed today's sports. Woke up at 8.20 which is considered late as I'm meant to leave the house by 8.30. I jumped up of my bed, showered and left the house at 8.40. Reached city in time, meaning I took 20 minutes! Hehe, and it was raining :p. Record record! Sports wasn't at super as last week. Not as tiring so no body aches. Then again, if it's tiring, might still have no body aches since I stretched properly this time and I'm young :p. Meant to have a friendly match against Petunia but none of the girls showed up, think they don't like us after what happened at Bersatu :( Not many of the umsa girls turned up as well, most still in bed. 9am is too early! Played volleyball after that. Yes, still scared of the ball. *sigh*. Was so hungry during volleyball. Kept on thinking about lunch after that - chicken laksa!! Hv been craving for it since last week!!

MmMmm...lunch was good. got my chicken laksa with lots of coconut, very fatty but who cares? Once in awhile, haven't had it since I went to Dunedin. Walked back to uni after that. Mr.Clouds and Mr.Rain invited Mr.Wind to join their party. Hence, it was windy. Went to rec centre with yingswan to shower. Warm shower is good, didn't want to get out. Plus, gossip with yingswan was quite interesting:p Haha! as she mentioned in her blog...JUICY!! heehee... Was meant to do some studying but silly me didn't bring my book along coz i was in a rush this morning that I forgotten to bring my books. Amazing how i remembered my laptop but not my books, hehehehe... I really do know how to set my priorties right, eh?

Went home after I showered, did some reading and then slept from 5 till 8. Had dinner after that and then continued my reading. Assignment due in this thursday, 10%. Everyone i know have started writing on it. Me, I'm still reading my second article. 15 more pages to go for article 2. I haven't even found article 3. Slack. And I thought most sportscience ppl are gna be more slack than me, I underestimated them! gahh!! Shall continue reading it tmrw. Tuesday, I will get article 3. Wednesday, do the writing. I'm ready for a no sleep night on Wednesday :p.

Ok, that's all for now! Mr.Sun, please come back!!

Smile and have a great week everyone! (if mr.sun don't come out, still keep on smiling and Mr.Sun will come back!!!)

ps:/ darren sifu, thanks for the chocs!! meant to buy frm u but since u don't want to accept it, i shall say a great big thanks to u here! nd thanks for greys anatomy too

happy day

- Drove out the house this morning and it was so foggy, very poor visibility. Do I have anything to complain? No, it actually made me happy. I like fogs (despite i nearly crashed into a car). It reminds me of Genting Highlands.

- Watched a Disney movie that has something to do with Special Olympics during Sports and Society, hence no brain usage. No brain usage = Happy Me

- Sat at Albert Park during lunch time under the sun and it was quite warm. Sunny + Warm day = Happy me again

- Dessert night: Cakes + Free flow of drinks + Cards + Wonderful company = Happy Me

In conclusion: Today's a Great Day :D

this week...

today at 11, went to gym to see henry's max.strength so can write up a weights programme for him. see, i got final destination 3 from him so in return, i have to do a programme for him. since i've tested my brother a week ago, so i thought it wouldn't be too bad. then, we bumped into ivan. he also wanted one. cannot say no, right? besides, it means more practice for me and more chance to build up my confidence. the whole testing thing went alright. i hope? hope i am giving the correct information as well. this is what happens when you don't know your stuff properly. but it's good, it would make me look up my notes and then i'll remember it the next time.

anyhuuzz...now the pressure in on! writing up three programmes and hope they are effective and will meet their goals and hopefully won't cause any damage to their body *touch wood touch wood*. malu larr if it don't work out, they don't see any improvements, or they just get bored of it. that's another challenge - to make the programme interesting. arghh! later, henry texted and said if in 3 months time he do see changes, he'll buy me lunch. wahhh, pressure pressure! lolx!!

yingswan came at 12 and just showed her some stuff on the swiss ball. that was easy since she wanted the same thing as me - abs and make the thighs smaller. yes, i still hv big thighs and no abs coz i'm not disciplined enough to workout. should start soon, 27 days to the ball, i don't want to go with a bulging tummy.

what's on this week for me apart from lectures:
tuesday- physio appointment (dat reminds me, i hvnt been doing the ankle exercises that i was meant to do! arghh!!) , tarea 1 due in
wednesday- normal day, probably should start writing up the programmes eh!
thursday- asia games event review due in to yean by 4 (yingswan u bum! u were meant to write it right? i cldnt say no lorr..hmphh!), West Side Story Musical Production by Macleans College!!!!! OOOOooOO!! so excited for this!!
friday- deco team meeting, DESSERT NIGHT!! yea man!!!!!! bring on the sweet stuff and go on a sugar high! WeeEEeEEEEe!!
