we will still be, friends forever

it's been a tiring few days. god only knows why. feel exhausted. but somehow unable to sleep. i think it's because of the hunger pangs in my tummy, but it's too late for me to satisfy it. :(

been all around town. saw sheryl on thursday! along with ding wei and daniel yee. had dinner at delicious. seem to be eating there a lot. 

went for pui may's graduation this morning. she's a MERIT SCHOLAR! :) so happy for her. lol, except that she went all the way back to the multipurpose hall to get the programme book with her name in it. but when i think about it, i probably would do the same thing too. if i did attend my own graduation. instead i opted to come back. well, compromises. 

oh shit i have suddenly lost my blogging mojo. need to get it back!!!! argggggggghhhhh..

*runs after the mythical blogging mojo*

breaking news

glen jennings should be shot! all trinitarians that have read their email are probably shaking in their beds. 

"Plagiarism was detected in a number of exams and assessment pieces.  And in a few cases this plagiarism was so severe that the assessment piece attracted a mark of zero."

"When final results are released please do not contact your classroom teachers if you wish to discuss your final grade."

seriously, i read that at 7.35 this morning cuz my father woke me up and since then i can't go back to sleep. i mean, what if my essays were marked as plagiarism, BUT I DIDNT?!!? sigh. 

i have been literally stewing at home, what with my mum in vietnam and the world not being safe anymore. rather be back in melbourne where the world is much safer, but then again, the asian food there aint that great. guess you really cant have everything you want.

went down to johor last weekend, and i drove. teehee. its seriously fun driving superfast on the highways. too bad u cant do it on the road in the city. you'd probably rack up like 50 accident cases. okay. that stupid glen jennings email is still in my head. bah!

im so sleepy though, slept late last night cuz i had this persistent tummy ache that wouldnt go away. not the food poisioning type. the stomach ache where it sucks the life out of you and sometimes you cant breathe type. i bet its the weather. lol, seriously i think malaysia got hotter, but thank god i stay in ampang where the air is cool and fresh! :D 

oh yeah!

• In the average lifetime, a person will walk the equivalent of 5 times around the equator. (and we all thought that the earth was incredibly huge. but then again, if you think about it, with all the modern transportation, we only probably walk twice around the world. the laziness of modern society!!)
  
• According to suicide statistics, Monday is the favored day for self-destruction. (that probably brought about the phrase 'monday blues')
  
• The first known contraceptive was crocodile dung, used by Egyptians in 2000 B.C. (EEEEKK!! thank god we have better ones today)
  
• There are twice as many kangaroos in Australia as there are people. The kangaroo population is estimated at about 40 million. (im willing to bet that it has since decreased!)
  

i shall try to sleep now.

will you love me in the morning? -forever and ever babe.

i will love you always. When this red hair is white, I will still love you. When the smooth

softness of youth is replaced by the delicate softness of age, I will still

want to touch your skin. When your face is full of the lines of every smile you have ever smiled, of every surprise i have seen flash through your eyes,

when every tear you have ever cried has left its mark upon your face,

I will treasure you all the more, because I was there to see it all.

I will love you until the last breath leaves your body or mine. 

awww.. :)

its 9.24 in the morning and ive been up since eight after finally falling asleep at 8. insomnia much? its an improvement from thursday when i sleep at 3 and woke up at 6. somehow i think its the bottled up excitement from returning returning to my lovely homeland. :D *homeland sounds like im from the jungle or something, but thats what foreigners think we are, jungle people*

happy birthday richmond. here's hoping he reads this entry on time and his number hasnt changed, otherwise i wouldnt have wished him. :(

last night was a fun fun night, had a goodbye wen dinner. lol, that may have been overdramatic since im coming back to aus next yr, (hopefully) and also, ill be seeing them back in msia. but hell, havent seen them in ages. shengjun huayu and waimun did not disappoint. 10 people went! me, reneeee!!!, ayie, waimun,hy,sheng jun, julius, weng fai, katrina, randy!!. they were as hilarious as usual. before that went to dfo with renee taty and ayie. lol, that was fun too. :D bought 2 pairs of shoes (i always had this question: are girl shoes, 'shoes'? cuz i mean, they're usually strappy and have heels.) anywayyyy, was super tired, but went for dinner still!! were supposed to eat at supper inn but i didnt make a reservation AND SOMETHING BAD HAPPENED IN THE ALLEY but we wont tell. :D so we went to new kum den, and no space too. so we settled on kum den. it was nice, tasted like msian chinese food. lol, i remember that stupid lady at supper inn. i went in and was like "is there space for 10.." before i could say 'people', she shook her head. bah.!

for dessert we had mcd ice cream. i still prefer the one in kl.

okayokayokayokay, im getting paranoid. gotta pack. last day in melb!!!! ARGH. cant believe time passed so fast, seems like yesterday i was having my orientation. (how cliche), but true!!!

see you on the other side, :D

what a wonderful day

why'd you choose hospitality?

-because i wanted to be a doctor and hospitality was closest to hospital.

that's my friend jonathan lourdes.

:) he's pretty funny, comes up with these kind of things on a daily basis but at totally random times.

so anyway, hang brian jon lisha and i were talking about a wms reunion. and jon said-prom 2.0. that'd be fun. but maybe with a different name yeah? but the ppl in malaysia should do it. seeing as they can call hotels way easier than we overseas students can. *hint hint* pretty excited about it. havent seen them in a gazillion years. okayy just 11 months but thats almost a year!

had a wonderful time on msn just now, never realized how much i miss them in malaysia. good thing im coming home 30th nov. whcih i dont find likely seeing as i have a billion things and no boxes. thank god for thomas man. that guy is my savior. not as in the savior jesus is. but you know the guy that is helping me out.

just fnished exams. LIBERTY! lol, everyone else here has exams and are studying for it and hate me. hehehe. but i win. 

great thing happened today! after psych exam, pei qi and i went for my goodbye lunch, lol. and had lunch at this newly opened restaurant that sucked. but i digress, the point is i had to buy masking tape for my boxes, so i went into this convenience store, managed by this chinese lady. so i got it and put it on the counter and she said its 3 bucks. so i take out my wallet and try to pay her in coins cuz i wanted to get rid of it and i only have 2.90! i was struggling to find the remaining 10 cents when, omgosh, she said its okay! and just took the 2.90 for it. chinese people are generous. unlike wat russell peter said about chinese being stingy and cheap. that little gesture was really nice! one day i shall go back and pay her back for it. :D

going to the gym tmr. after not going for a few months. :( i got sick and then, just never got the motivation to go back. decided to use the remaining days i have here very well.speaking of which im gonna miss the milk here and the tim tams, and the wonderful nudie juices. yummy!!!! :)

i cant wait for tmr. i can get boxes and finish packing. :D whee. i love my life.

thank god exams are over. now i just have to cope with the overwhelming doubt about my results. 

i remember that feeling. happened yesterday when i had apple pie in the oven and while waiting for it i couldnt stop thinking about that delicious first bite. needless to say i did not concentrate with my hoi. and when that timer went off, i practically ran to the oven to get it out! and it was a total let down. taste soggy, totally different from the time before. sigh.

its my exam week and ive had 4 exams so far, beginning to get the little bump on my third finger from all the writing: english for academic purposes (EAP), MATH!!, literature, history of ideas. all writing and writing. no circling or shading. humph! i can barely remember the exams, and its sort of surprising that ive already had 4, seems like just a day has passed. guess time flies when ure not having fun too. next week is a total killer. have my economics exam. followed by psych. but econs is the one im worried for. barely touched it.

moving on to more pleasant things, i am going home soon. in 9 days to be exact. and the day couldnt come any earlier. kinda sucks going home so early, cuz as carmen says, ill be missing valedictory! but on the other hand I AM GOING HOME! :D

just 2 more papers and im free. till next year.

which means i gotta make a decision whether i want to stay in commerce or go into arts. sigh.

bits and pieces of nostalgia

i think its the time of the month where i get all thoughtful and melancholic.

just msged my parents about how much i appreciate them after thinking about how it'd be as a parent. lol, was studying psych.

yes, i am trying to study but so far, no luck, i mean i've been in australia for a whole damn year,now i am officially unmotivated. going home time is so close and i can practically taste the msian food. but instead of relishing that wonderful thought i have to throw it away, bury it in the deep recesses of my mind and study for my finals. to get into melb uni. i swear that aim has been drilled into my head for an entire year. blablabla..."to get into melb uni'. sucks. but oh well, price to pay for a bright future. lmao.

today was the last time that i get to eat the union hse honey chicken cuz pei qi nags me about being boring and eating that every week. i had it to go cuz i thought i had student committee, but thank god! we didn't so i got to spend time with hoi buddies for the last time after our last hoi tutorial. melodramatic much? 

tomorrow is my last day of regular classes; after that its just plain old exams. have been doing it my whole life, you'd think i would have gotten used to it, but no, panic attacks are constant. 

enough moaning.

good news is i have about a week after my exams to shop and pack before i catch my lovely flight home. which reminds me, im playing a flight attendant in my drama. which full dress rehearsal is tomorrow. (dont get me started on the redundantness of drama) and on wednesday, at 9AM i have my final drama exam. i am in the first group of the entire year. ive got chills, SEE! okay so u cant see but whatever.

talked to jyu today. lol. miss msian ppl. :D

oh and did you know that:

1-2% of women are homosexual whilst guys have the percentage of 3-4% of being homosexual?? staggering eh. wonder why there are so many guy homophobes out there. ironic actually.

it is proven that... stress is neither positive nor negative in nature. it just depends on how we think. whether we're paranoid and think its a threat or whether we are confident and think events are a challenge.

okay im done sprouting psych facts. :D enjoy your day. u only get one chance at it.
