Have you ever noticed that sometimes when you change your routine, your day would almost always end up in a disaster?

Aiyer, stupid launderette!

I know la today Agong's Birthday, but no need la close down the shop today. Now cannot send laundry already! I know la i can basuh my own clothes. But you seriously think i will do that?! Ish.

Dahlah had to drag down the stupid laundry bag downstairs, then had to go and get Mun Ji's and Sim Yee's books from Siao Koon. So heavy, you know!

Lucky thing i met Pei Wen. He helped me carry the books to my room. Yes, boys can't go into our rooms, but special case, so can la. On the way up, we started cursing the launderette. Turns out he wanted to sned his laundry this morning, but someone told him that the launderette is closed. Said he got two weeks worth of laundry and if he wears the same clothes for two days in a row, don't blame him. Haha.

Then, i told him i got X3 vcd and whether he wants to borrow it or not. He told me to bring my laptop to the Millennium Center and watch it there. I told him i will if i rajin la. If not, i'll just pass the vcd to him.

Oklah, he's my Pembuli. But he's nice. So no harm watching the movie with him, i think...Haha.

But he also very the crazy. Once he told me to go to the water cooler on my floor and look out the window there. Ingatkan got any fight going on ke(you know la, i kan very the busybody). Turns out, he was bored, so he wanted to chat with me. Oklah, i don't mind chatting with him. Thing is he was in his room, in the opposing block. Crazy la that guy!

But you've got to admit, it IS nice to have someone who is like gila in the head like you in a place where you're all alone and all stressed out. At least can release tension...right?!

I miss Hsiao....

Like, badly..

Not that i don't miss the others. But i hear from them every so often so at least terubat la jugak kerinduan..

But Hsiao..

Haven't seen her since the last day of SPM(yes, that long)

Saw her a few times in JJ. But those times, we were both too caught up in other things to pay attention, to sit down and have a real chat with each other.

She's one of those friends that had gotten closer to me over the past few years. I always did my duties with her. We were always together because Mun was so busy helping the teachers(most of the times,we never did were called up to help the teachers...seriously!). She knows my secrets, i know hers. We confided in each other about some things we were not that happy about that not even Mun(even though she's close to us)knows about. I teased her, she teased me. And being the patient one, she always calmed me down when i get so steamed up over some things. Everytime i blow up in front of her, she gets all concerned and will always ask if i'm alright every five seconds. I miss her miang-ness, her manja-ness and all the ness-es that she posseses. Always so happy. Always so dedicated especially to St John and Cavell and PB. I had fun working with her in Cavell. We always spent the time prepping up the Cavell marching squad(with Jia and Kar Mun)during marching practises, arguing over who should supervise which sports tryout, searching for Pn Hamsiah before Cavell House practises, and the only time i ever saw her angry was during House practises. She cared about Cavell so much and about us being the Overall Champion so much so that she spent most of the practise time going off to different venues to cheer those competing or trying out. And when the students didn't want to take part in the try outs, she'll pujuk them like crazy. She came up with the idea to get the marchers the bandannas. We spent the whole day figuring out how much of cloth we should buy and when others were too busy with their practises, she went out to buy the cloth herself. She helped Wan Ceng tie the bandannas on the marchers. Then she had an idea and started distributing the extra bandannas to the form 5 committees and we tied the bandannas on our wrists. Since then, we have been wearing the bandanna on almost every outdoors activity. Everytime i look at the bandanna, it reminds me of the time we spent with Jia and Kar Mun overseeing the marching practises, cheering on the sprinters, delegating tasks and waiting with abated breath when the marchers passed by the Prefects' Squad. And when they did, i remember feeling very proud, and very nostalgic and i confided in Hsiao soon after the ceremony and she told me she had the same feeling. I have always miss school, i have always miss the teachers, i have always miss the juniors, i have always miss the lessons, i have always miss the atmosphere, heck i have even always miss the assemblies.I have always miss everyone.

But now, at this very moment, i miss Hsiao. I want to talk to her. Properly.

I would like to recommend the government to change the school timetable to start from 7 am ++ to sayyy, 9 am++ on Mondays.

They should make it illegal for people to go to school or university at 7 or 8 am. They should also make it mandatory for people not to be disturbed before 9 am every Monday...

Computer Studies was exceptionally quiet today. Even Miss Amilia noticed. For once, no chit chats were heard. Only her voice rang throughout the room.

And then, after class, TB12 waited outside Lab 7. Almost everyone was nodding their heads off. And it was 1 pm.

Even when Balan called everybody to get their Account notes, no one actually heard, until he shouted, "Woii TB12. Come and get your notes la!"..

And when i mentioned that i didn't hear anything the first time he called out, he was like, "What you didn't hear? I called out TB12 loudly! I think even JT(who was 3 labs away from us) heard because when i screamed for you guys, he actually looked...."

Whatever la dude...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I seriously pity Mr Anthony. He's a good lecturer. Not great, but good.

Language, presentation, okay..

Thing is, i don't think he's that much respected by his students.

Cause, if you guys ever come to his lectures, only a quarter of his students will actually listen while the others will be chit chatting la, sleeping la, reading storybooks la..

And it was extremely noisy today. Even Mr Anthony called out for silence a few times(which he never did before. In fact i don't think he's capable of getting angry). After the third or fourth time (i lost count)i seriously thought he would shout at the class to shut up..but he didn't. He just stopped his lecture, stared at us, and then after a few minutes, continued his lecture.

Someone push his buttons. Please.

I got a free satchel!

mwahahahaahahahaha!

Dutch Lady had this survey on campus where we get to test their new products and give them our opinions about them drinks la. So, we all, gatal - gatal after Art tutorial go try la. All 20 of us. The whole table was full with the TB12 people.

Then after we finished, they gave us this satchel bag each. Girls got red, boys got blue. Nothing special about the satchel, but it's nice la, convenient, at least for today.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I did mention to some people that Intro to Art is becoming one of my favourite subjects here. But i forgot to mention that i love the theory part only. The practical part, not so much. Ask Sharon, she'll tell you why.

Today i tell you, we had to analyse a painting each from Georges Seurat(Sunday Afternoon something something something)  and the other one was Van Gogh's Starry Night.

Cerenna and i were like zombies this morning, so flow of ideas very the slow la. Then, Asyiq came in at 10.30 am(class started at 10 am). No, he came strolling in(jalan lenggang lenggok only). Then he went to sit beside Boo Yap pulak.

When he finally joined us, bukan nak tolong bagi idea, he sat there quietly. Then Balan, dengan sungguh bijaknye, came in at 11 am(baik tak payah datang).

And then Miss Maithreyi asked if we had printed out the three artworks required for assignment 1. No response. Turns out, no one printed out anything, so everybody had to go online and search for them artworks.

Searching for the suitable artworks can really drive you crazy, okay. Then Balan found this painting form god knows who, really cool wan.

The canvas was divided into three section. The first section depicts Heaven, the middle section, Earth and the third section, Hell. Seriously nice. If i can get the links, i'll post it here, then maybe anyone who's interested can go and take a look.

Then, rushed to PD206 for PSC tutorial. Can't be late for this class cause Monica is the only lecturer/tutor who is actually on time. She told us that if we're late for her class, must give reason. Not the usual one like, sesat la, went toilet la. But interesting ones like, kidnapped by aliens ker, just came back from the jungle ker. She said since we're late, might make it interesting. Lol.

Had to brainstorm for topics for Presentation. Everything came out la. How To Get Out of Class la, How To Skip Classes la, How to Skip Properly(because Mr Kuru gave one topic for an example, Skipping), How to Become Rich. My classmates, very the "industrious"..Haha.

Then, had to present our ideas cause Monica wants to determine whether our topics are suitable or not. Found out Kevin's a certified lifeguard. Wahlauwei! No wonder body very the fit. Lol.

After class, while waiting for UTAR bus, it rained very heavily. I spent the time gossiping Zi Yun with Kelvin cause she gossiped about me and Pei Wen and Bee Bee with Balan. Turned behind, Kelvin was behind. He heard his name, i guess and was staring at me. But when i asked him whether he heard what i was saying, he said no. Lucky mannnn!

Arrived at MC, umbrella no umbrella, we were soaked to the skin! The rain came down like someone was pouring a giant bucket of water on us. Francis was laughing at us from his room on the third floor. Stewpid, bukan nak tolong!

Came back, had girl talk with Mia. So long tak buat girl talk. It was kind of nice. Everything also came out.

[To Mia : It was reaaallllyyy nice talking to you. Nanti sambung yek?! Haha]

Have to go and finish up Accounts assignment. Sigh.

Today got lecture at 12 pm but went to campus early because wanted to discuss Art tutorial (kononnyerr). Everyone yesterday very bersemangat promise nak jumpe at B3 there at 10. But until 11.30 am, no one was there. 5 minutes to 12 pm, saw Cerenna. She said her bus broke down. Ok, fine.

Then, 12.30 pm, Balan came into class, i pointed at him and then at my watch. And he was like, "I came at 10 you know, I was waiting for you people at DSA." Then i told him that we promised to wait at the basement, then he was like, "Where got?!" Swear to God, i nearly smacked him silly. *bluek*

Before that, while waiting for Cerenna, Balan and Asyiq, sat with Zi Yun, Bee Bee, Aileen, Yoke Yoon, Pei Wen and Kelvin. Then, don't know how, we started talking about birthdates and who hasn't turned 18 yet yadayadayada. Then, again, while waiting in front of PD206, someone started talking about birthdates. Then, as we were teasing Zi Yun about not being able to watch x-rated movies;

Aileen : Eh, i'm 20 you know.

Me : Liar la you.

Aileen : Really...

Me : Show me your IC.

SHe took out her IC and there it was in black and white 861125.

Me : No waaaayyyyy, you look soooo young. (she really does, and she's really petite)

Aileen : Reaaallly la. Yoke Yoon also.

Zi Yun : Who's 20?

Bee Bee : Aileen and Yoke Yoon.

ZI Yun : Hah?! Sure or not?

Then, everyone started asking everyone's ages la. Zi Yun pulak was busy asking everyone to guess how old Yoke Yoon and Aileen are. When they found out those two are actually 20, everyone was so surprised that Aileen ended up passing her IC around.

Me : Pei Wen, when were you born?

Pei Wen : Secret.

Me : i just want to know the year la

Pei Wen : 1988. Why? I look older is it?

Then he started some grandmother story la about how his younger cousin always calls him Ah Kong. Then, Kelvin, Pei Wen, Boo Yap and i, spent the whole lecture guessing over who's actually 18 and who's older. Siasat punya siasat, half of the people we guessed are 18, and who look realllyy young, are actually 20 something. Lucky betul!! Ishh....

 Germany WONNN! Mbwahahahahahahahahaha!

And SOMEBODY'S still trying to deny the fact that Germany has the potential to win the Cup.(admit it Ber!)

I slept from 5.30 to 7.30 pm and then from 8.30 to 10.30 pm just to make sure i'll stay awake for the game. Haha. Ct so fired up!

Anyways, the game was fun and really good. I enjoyed myself to the fullest screaming when Germany scored, shouting when they were foulled, and cursing when Lehmann let the ball in...TWICE! I still say Kahn should play...Pfft..

Slept for 5 hours. Woke up and was so groggy. Thought of skipping class(Mr Goh, if you're reading this, i didn't skip class today right? Cause i enjoy your classes.So no need to worry, you don't bore me.Haha)

Tonight got one more game, must watch! England vs Paraguay. England MUST win or i will hunt them down and whack them silly. Lol.

And Ber, remember, don't underestimate Germany or England or even Sweden ah?! If any of them wins the Cup, you have to belanja me lunch, no matter what!

P/s : Hsiao and Cody are coming back! Sweeeeetttt!!!

So, KELZ is coming! YEYYY!!

Now can go and have dinner with both Chennie and Kelz every single day! Lol.

Anyway, told her i've been learning Mandarin(yes, i have)in my effort to understand what most of the people at UTAR are saying..So far, got laughed at by most of the people in my class. Some of them laughed because my pronounciation is all worng and some laughed because it's just TOO weird hearing a MALAY talking in Mandarin! Ishh..

Bee Bee is my tutor whereas Pei Wen's my Sifu. People have been telling me to go to him if i want to learn Mandarin cause his accent is like those from China. But learning from that guy, stressfull mannnn!!! The best part about learning from him is that he doesn't laugh at me when i pronounce the words wrongly which is okay, i guess.

On another different note,passed up my Arts assignment last week. Then, we got our second assignment immediately after that. Have to get three canvas panels and paint black and white textural paintings. Luckily it's a group assignment. You expect ME to paint? Stick figures can la..Lol.

Then, had my Public Speaking presentation.Even though i've been so used to getting up infront of everyone and talking my head off, but that day, i got a serious case of nervousness and Mr Boo was like,"It's normal to be nervous..yadayadayada"(cause his topic is about nervousness, that was why he was like that). I got up and talked about the CRC. Made me miss the bunch of them a whole lot more after i finish. Tsk.

The best thing about presentation is that you get to see your classmates dress up to the nines. Especially the boys. The girls, not so much cause the girls are already very stylish. The guys, dressed up in shirt, slacks and ties. *swoon*. Haha.

Overall, the presentation was fun. We had Mr Boo first. He got up and started talking about nervousness while he himself was shaking like a leaf. Then, we had Pei Wen, he talked about emotions or something like that. Complete with actions ie Superman pose, eye fluttering etc. It was really entertaining. After that, we got Bee Bee, she talked about abortion, and a few people actually cringed when she talked about how abortion was performed. Zi Yun went up next. She started her speech by singing and let me tell you, that girl CAN SING! I got up next and when i sat back down, Pei Wen was like, "Terrible speech" which got him a whack on the back from yours truly. Haha. After that, we got Mei Ann, complete with her Taekwando outfit, she ended her speech with a Taekwando move which made everyone gave her a standing ovation. Kelvin got up next and talked about "How To Be A Lifeguard". He showed us how to save other people if we see anyone drowning. Then, got Ka Mun. She talked about Malaysian delicacies. Let me tell you, at 4.30 pm, even a badly photographed picture of Kuih Lapis will make your mouth water. Lol. And last but not least, we got Xiu Xin who talked about her passion which is playing the piano. She promised us that she will play one of her compositions one day.

Can't wait for next week. Get to watch the others "die". Lol

I wanted to sleep early last night, but someone knocked on my door before i could even get into bed. Saw Celine. Said she has to borrow my computer cause someone didn;t save God knows what in Melvin's pendrive.

Couldn't save the assignment inside the pendrive cause it was too full and we couldn't just simply delete the things inside there cause the pendrive belongs to Melvin(yalah, just in case got love letter from his girlfriend inside there and we delete it...DIE! Haha) Celine called Melvin and told him to get his arse up to my room. Unfortunately, it was already 11pm, so he couldn't come up to my floor. So, Celine and i went down. As soon as we saw Danny, Celine started shouting at him and he shouted back. While i was in between them, holding my laptop like an idiot.

Ended up sitting at the curb, trying to save the assignment. Can you imagine, i was holding the laptop, Danny was beside me, pressing and banging(yes, banging)on the keypad while Celine was pacing up and down in front of us, searching for Melvin who was SUPPOSED to be there.The people who were passing by kept staring at us. Yalah, everyone(except me) looked so panicky and cursing non - stop. Lol.

After around 30 minutes of "finding"(they didn't actually get up and find him, they just stood there, trying to find him)Melvin, saw he was sitting at the bench there. But by that time, Danny had already finished copying everything inside the pendrive.

This morning, saw Danny and totally ignored him(cause we don't normally talk. We only talk IF Shalini is there)After a few minutes, Danny came to us and started joining in on our conversations. The guy is okay la. He let me play with his Nano(usually, he won't let anyone touch his "wife", according to Shalini and Celine).Made me miss Patrick even more.*Sob*

Then, I saw Mi Shel and Amelia were staring at him:

Me : Why are you people staring at him like that?

Mi Shel : *Mouthing at me* Malay?

Me : *laughed* Ask him la..

Danny : What?

Me : They want to know if you're Malay

Danny : NOOOO!

Me : He's not. He's Chindian. But looks like a Malay. In other words, the product of a coconut and a banana resulted in a nasi lemak, right Danny?!

Danny : Funny la you...

Yeah, that's what we do. We annoy each other. We spar with each other during dinnertime. Keeps me articulate. Lol.

Got to UTAR very early, but by the time the lecture was about to start, realised that both Bee Bee and Kelvin did the same question. Asked Danny if he could print out his copy of the question for us, but he said he didn't have the pendrive with him. So, Bee Bee, Kelvin and i skipped Computer Studies and went to the Internet Lab to finish the fourth question.

Went to print them out at the practical lab, but too many people. Waited for like half an hour, then printed out the damned thing and passed it up to Balan. Felt soooo relieved.

But like i said, i got Arts assignment starting tomorrow. Have to FRIGGIN' paint! ARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!

We'll see how i hold up eh?! Tsk.
