I seem to have the worst luck.

Its just plain annoying that its already that close to holiday you can practically smell it and you've still got an assignment sitting in your room waiting for you to complete it.What gets worst is that the internet connection gets on your nerves and the annoying electric in your dorm room is playing tricks with you. I've been sitting in the lab for the pass 2 and a half hours because the stupid plugs in my room is not working and so no computer for me to use for my assignment. Just as i think the worst is over, i realise all my files are in my computer because i was too tired to back it up into my iPod last night, so i'm practically typing aimlessly at this moment and waiting for the chance to piece back my assignment together.

Still cant find my keys.I no longer remember where i put it.And i dont have a picture of it to post online.I miss my keys and of course the keychain. I'm just thankful its not my hostel keys i lost coz that would have cost me some money and my mom would definately be way more angry.Somehow i can run but i cant hide, so this weekend when i get back, i'm ready for scolding.Its just so sad i have to lose my keys in such a way.Just pure forgetful and tonnes of bad luck.

I'm so tired now.Java is one of my most hated subjects.It leaves me drained.I noticed i havent been exercising for the past 2 weeks.But then i'm just too tired and busy to do that.With my assignments half way through, I shall just head to bed after this class.Its gonna be a long long night.

Multitasking (WARNING! long post ahead!)

Just got home after another busy day today. Attended 2 birthday parties of 3 friends from 2 seperate groups and at each end of the LDP within the night. Damn tired now but due to all the food and talking,I'm rather wide awake.I'll at least have to stay up till i digest the 2 pieces of cake i ate.

The day started with me doing my laundry as early as 9 in the morning followed by breakfast with the newspaper(which i miss dearly ever since i moved into campus) and then a trip to pick up my moms friend(who didn't turn up due to some miscommunication) before sending mum for her dunno what meeting.Ended up at digital mall to look see as i've heard so much about it and yet cant seem to find the time to go have a look.Nothing spectacularla...just another Lowyat-look-a-like with less ppl, less products and cut-throat PJ prices.Saw Jennifer and her mom on her way out and her mom says i'm thinner, that was kinda weird in a way coz i dont feel thinner.

Went into Jaya supermarket to look for a present for birthday girl J (i'm sorry J,couldn't find time to get your pressie early.I'm back during the weekends for as long as 2 dinners at most only.) Ended up spending close to an hour at those cute-cute shops and ended up buying a cute bear with "you're one in a million" on it. *wink* Hope to see it on your car when i come back next week. It rained cats and dogs the moment we steped into the car and being the dim wit i am, i forgot to take my clothes in before leaving the house. So now there a wet collection of clothes waiting for me in a tub.

Wrapped the gift just in time before heading to Weng's house because i feel bad that he's got to come all the way to pick me up.Headed to Puchong after picking up ZL on the way there and we arrived way way later than expected.Steamboat ,a few rounds of mahjong(i dont play) and a piece of cake later, we excused ourselves before kind hearted Weng ferried me to friendster cafe(the other end of LDP) for James and LM's surprise Bday party (ok, so James was the only one surprised). The jam was terrible but at least it was bearable with the radio and our chitchat.

Felt kinda awkward being late and having another bunch of ppl i dont know sitting on the table. But thankfully not very long later, Kelly (James's GF) guided the blind folded birthday boy to the table and made him sit and remove his blindfold. He was surprised after all , and then came the cake and the 2 birthday boys blew it. Ate another piece of cake again and chat with my primary mates before we gave the present and bade fairwell to both the Bday boys.

Only after leaving the premise did i notice that i left my keys in Weng's car.Called him but he wasn't at home.So the last resort was to call my dad(who thankfully still have his HP on) to open up the door when i arrive home. At least i was thankful it wasn't my mom greeting me on the front door coz i'm sure i'll get an earful from her. I do hope the key is in Weng's car or else i'll lose my favourite keychain thats been with me since i was 14. I'll keep my fingers crossed and hope to get it back from him tomorrow.

Argh....I'm So Pissed Now!! how can ppl just give up like that? so close and u go give up? Already half way and u go give up? What is this man? WHY ? It really gets on my nerves. I really cant stand ppl with so so so low mental strength. Its not even hard and u give up? another 5 minutes and you could have completed it and you have to give up.*sigh* such a waste.
With bad comes the good
Its been a long day for me. A group meeting at 11am that didn't mean anything anymore because the groups are about to be changed AGAIN, a very "Bake Chick" (thanks Toh san for teaching me this word.Btw its supposingly in hokkien, so pronounciation not very sure) almost 3 hour JAVA theory class in the afternoon, a long 2 hours public transport trip back home , a dinner i ate without even knowing what i'm putting in my mouth because i was already half asleep , a 3 hour sleep from 9pm and the annoying mosquitoes I'm donating blood to which i'll never miss when i go back to campus on sunday. Somehow I couldn't continue sleeping, so i woke up thinking that i could do my assignment but in the end, i ended up proof reading my friends english assignment. But somehow, its still better than yesterday night,when everyones mood was off.

The good part is that i'm now 1 kg lighter than last week , W2 finally found the YZ album deluxe version for me(TQ sooo...much) , I'll have 10 days off during Hari Raya(which i hope wouldn't be for my assignments) and that I'll finally be able to eat the mamak's nasi lemak ayam i've been craving for throughout the week. Dad says i look thinner,which is surprising coz he just saw me less than 5 days ago...I'm sure he is just pulling my legs. MSN connection is so much better here, but with that comes all the chat windows popping out way more than i can handle but at least i'll be able to do my assignment decently.The best of all is that i can get any food i want without even needing to leave the computer, go figure =)
Everything in life is somehow balanced.Its not fair but it is balanced in its own way. I guess that mentality helps me survive the rough and tough world out there. Whether it really happens anot i believe in miracles. Little act of kindness makes me happy.It feels great knowing you've done good and that little smile you get after doing things for others keeps me going. I've made many good and caring friends along the way which i'm very honoured and proud of and of course theres the minority of ex-friends who never valued my act of kindness or take for granted that everything i do is what i'm supposed to do as a friend. I dont hate them for doing what they do,perhaps its just human nature. I've learn to accept things the way it is,so when its not meant to be its just not meant to be.Everything happens for a reason and that reason will be the best lesson i've ever learned.

Jogging down memory lane

It seems that my sueh-ness has not finished yet.After trying to avoid the crowd by going home on a friday afternoon (instead of thursday night), i have to get myself caught up at the KL Sentral putra LRT station because my connecting train ride home had some kind of problem.God knows what their maintennance man are doing but it sucked badly.The queue was all the way to the middle of the building and the shutters were closed.Couldn't stand the long wait so i took the alternative which was to take the slow bus ride back home.

Before i forget,I would like to wish a happy 中秋节 to everyone! Had a fun night tonight.Got a call before dinner from W2 saying the usual primary gang will come over to my house to play candles.When my parents heard of it i swear they rolled their eyes! Who wouldn't? the idea of over grown kids playing candles in their front porch is so weird.Anyhow, we carried on anyway.Boy did we enjoyed the atmosphere.Who says only kids can play lanterns eh?

We hanged the lanterns up while waiting for SR to arrive.When she showed up finally, we went hyper. We consumed red wine(which SR brought) and sang to tunes(very loudly) that had the "moon" word in it and all this was happening on my front porch.We burned lanterns, lit candles and called a friend who was based in singapore.My neighbours who were having BBQ at the time started taking strolls towards my house and back just to see what we adults punks were doing. I can just imagine my neighbours reaction when i greet them tomorrow morning.

Talked a little about memories and things in life and mostly gossips in particular.The only torn among the roses LM represented the male clan in our discussions la...kinda interesting also. Its been sometime since we all last gathered in my house and caused a commotion which we always do with SR around.Ming puked after just half a glass of Red wine.Poor girl, hope she's well enough to attend her classes tomorrow.Shouldn't have let her drink it.Took some grainy pictures but left my BT dongle in Uni, so I'll upload them up when i get back and if i can blog from there.

Right after everyone left, it rained heavily suddenly.Even when LM came back to collect the picture DVD just 5 minutes off,it was still raining.But it was not for longla...it stopped after about 15 minutes.Damn short lived rain.....must be the cloud seeding thingyla.Dont think it'll clear the haze la.Unless sumatra's trees all get burned down, there'll be no end to it.

Mid-autumn festival does bring back lots of my childhood memories. I remembered they loved to play Alien movies on tv3 every mid-autumn fest.I remember it fondly coz my mom would bring me to walk to the nearby taman with my lanterns(last time everyone does it, now no one does it anymore....not safe liao) and when i come home, i'll sit down and watch the ending of it. I remembered playing with candles all by myself in the porch,burning up lanterns and twigs and leaves or anything that i could find so that i'll get a new lantern the next year.Somehow the coolest and most expensive lantern i had was a dragon shaped lantern that i managed to keep for 3 years.That was the only(surviving) one i didn't burn down(which i do religiously every year) to get a new one.Those were the days....I really had fun.

Its 1 am on a friday morning.
Listenning to the boys upstairs singing.
All my roommates had gone to bed.
But i'm so damn wide awake.
Took a nap in the evening which was a mistake.
Thought it was a good idea but it ended up more than a mere break.

Connection in my room gets on my nerves.
Cant connect to blogger to type my verse.
Joined the Outdoor, music and ACE club today.
I'm interested so I dont mind having to pay.
Hope i find time to do everything,
but the most important thing is definately studying.

Its now time for me to get some rest.
Or else tomorrow will be a mess.
There will be no classes on tomorrow.
So i'll be home just to let u know.
Feeling poetic all of a sudden.
hope it doesn't sound lame and wooden.

The much needed sumptuous dinner

Today was a rather OK day for me. CCN class is a bunch of question marks as usual, Lecturer didn't try to crack jokes this time, but he still confuses ppl as hell with his lectures. Java class in the afternoon was like deja-vu. Did most of the codes in college before, so there was nothing new or interesting to me. In fact, I kinda enjoyed it more this time around.

Kinda active day for my roomates today,they were so hyper as we spent 2 hours or more in the Sports complex today playing badminton and basketball. Even the guys had to make way for us as we invaded half the court when we saw less ppl playing. But it was a good thing all of us had fun and we have a great sweat and de-stress after a long day.

It was great that Ling's friends offered to ferry us all to the PizzaHut restaurant in Kajang for dinner. It was like my first proper meal in weeks on campus (besides the very OILY chicken burger i ate).Its great relief that there’s still something familiar like pizza hut around in Kajang.I couldn't imagine how big the pizza hut was in such a ulu small place, its shockingly posh and big, something so weird in this area. Its obviously good that we have friends as company and that are nice enough to ferry all of us(roommates except Jye) there to eat our hearts out.

Girls of I2B58 (MIA Jye) and the 2 drivers(A.K.A Ling's Friend)


What's left of our meal.
Just checked my email when I got back and I have 2 Personal Tutors. Kinda funny, shall wait till they sort out the typo error.Poor Pamela will be stuck with Uncle as her personal Tutor, as if she doesn’t have enough of him in classes. I really pity her.
As usual the blogger page is throwing a tantrum by not loading from my hostel room. I wonder if it’s blocked by the server or its something wrong with their system. It gets on my nerves. I hate it when I can’t blog, especially when I’ve spent so much time typing it. Even msn is giving me a splitting headache. I think I should go sleep now and pray that all thing goes smoothly tomorrow.

Blue Monday.....The Sueh-ness Continues!

Classes as usual on a monday morning.Had a busy and noisy night last night celebrating one of my roommates 18th birthday,stayed up till 1+ a.m watching School Of Rock so obviously i was super sleepy in class.Thankfully I'm not the only tired one in class coz most of us were yawning and half dead thanks to the old and boring lecturer who cracks lame and NOT FUNNY jokes. When your jokes dont work,never repeatedly say its a joke coz number 1,it doesn't work that way and number 2,telling jokes with a straight face works only if ppl get you and number 3,if its not funny, how to laugh leh?

Went for lunch with my roomate and their friends at Broga today, its a fun ride there as the roads were single lane and rather hair-pin-ish (from Initial D). The food took a rather long time to come as i believe the orders got mixed up and so the guys were late for class.Lunch didn't went so well, partly because of my curiousity (which i dont want to elaborate) so I feel kinda bad about it.Better watch what i ask next time.See the sueh-ness just keeps going on and on.....hope its not gonna last throughout the week.

Gotta do my research on The Chinese Room Argument, that weird things is a topic for my Artificial Intelligence assignment. I'll stop blogging for now,my mom didn't pay RM25000 a year for me to blog you know? :)

As for what the uncle lecturer's joke was, he said :" Why do we need Artificial Intelligence For? because we're not intelligent so we need artificial intelligence." I give him a Capital Lame.

"Sueh" Weekend

Finally got back to the campus after a short trip back home for the weekend.Ate like a pig for the whole time at home because my mom feels that i dont have enough nutrition when i'm outside,so the next best thing is to feed me everything thats good when i'm around as if i've just been released from the prison. Thats why i dont see myself reducing any weight.

Is it just me or is it fated that i'll have a bad weekend? First i forget my Handphone charger, next my dad's car died on us when we're out buying my textbooks and after that of all things i have to forget to bring my Certs for certification of my stupid LAN subject exemption.The main purpose of me going back last week was to get my certs and this have to happen.Thank god the due date is on next monday, or else i'll have to go back to take it on monday evening and come back on tuesday morning.

The worst of my weekend so far is the attempted pickpocketing of my handphone from my pocket when i was travelling on the KTM from KL sentral to the Kajang station. God was definately on my side as i was rather aware that my phone was removed from my pocket even when i've got my iPod blasting and with a bag on tow.Perhaps thats what made him try to take it from me.Unfortunately he was stupid enough to take from me while he was going into the train with me.If he were exiting the train i would have lost my phone already.When i noticed it gone from my pocket, i pulled the suspicious looking fella(who's back was facing me) on his shirt to face me and snatched my phone back.I never did look back or at him coz i knew they work in groups and they might corner me after i leave the train.Thankfully nothing like that happened, but i was rather shocked throughout the way on the KTM.So scary!
