MeMorIes...

exams are over... and one last assignment to go before i officially finish this year of uni... can't believe it's already almost a year since i came here... it has been a good year, all in all, except for a few hiccups along the way... really looking forward but at the same time, a sense of alienation?? i dunno... to going home... dunno what to expect from pple... family and friends...

was looking thru my photos and autograph book today... realised that i have pushed aside some of the things that happened during school... in crescent, nj, sajc and nyp...
funny things like our water parade during lessons... we would start taking our water bottles out and drink as a whole group... the ups and downs... the mass aerobics sessions... our graduation ceremony... the teachers...
nj... drawing on each other's notes... laughing at the teachers... the funfair... siti and me's maggot-infested locker... can't remember what we put in it though... it was really bad... u can smell it when u walk pass the locker... i still remembered freddy had to help us remove the maggots and we had to spray alot of air freshner... the time when we trained so hard for nafa until we almost 'benged'... and i jumped the furthest i ever jumped in standing broad jump...and everyone started to sing happy birthday... the teachers... the teacher's day picnic... the soya bean drink that i always drink at least twice a week...

sajc... although i was only there for the first three months... had a really fun time there... pe lessons were my favourite... especially when we were playing floorball... melissa and lay kuan... the queens of 'ponning'... always influencing us to pon lessons...
nyp... only been there for one semester but i am so glad to have met my class... OT 0402... the school... nice and clean swimming pool... nice soya bean drink also... nice teachers... pbl on culture...

just want to say that i really glad that fate has given me the chance to meet all these pple and have these memories to treasure till i grow old... i will always remember them... even though we might not see each other again... to all of u... thanks for sharing these unforgettable memories with me...

UnfOrGettAblE...

25 November 2005. I will probably remember this day... what started out as a good day because today was the last day of exams and beginning of the holidays and i unofficially finished year one of uni, turned out to be a shitty day...

today, after neuroscience exam, we had to rush to finish our human occupation portfolio, and because we were in a rush, the referral letter was a mess, dun even know what we are writing... btw... our case conference got 37, which was good but was probably the lowest among our class... so anyway, the three of us were rushing to finish the portfolio, and yochi, mel, tina and jane waited for us for three hours, becos we agreed to go to strathfield to eat to celebrate jane and tina' s birthdays... okay, so we went to this korean place, not ceci, but another korean bbq restaurant... to eat that spicy chicken and cheese that i said was really nice... ordered that and bbq beef... it was so spicy, all of us were like tearing up and turning red and sniffing... we actually had six refills of tea... but it was good... and then karen and i decided to treat them bcos they waited three hours for us to finish the portfolio...
and then after that... went to woolies to buy ice -cream to 'cool' our mouths... haha... so the six of us sat outside woolies and ate ice-cream... talked abt our excitement at going back home... but mel, karen and yochi are staying here during the holidays... at least i have company during the holidays after coming back...

after that, took the express train to epping with yochi... when we were about to get down at epping, i suddenly realised that i lost my phone bcos i remembered holding it in my hand... so i quickly turned back and started searching the whole cabin... i really started to panic... took out everything in my bag, looked everywhere, and this lady sitting behind me was kind enough to offer to lend me her phone to try and call my phone... i tried, but it was actually no use bcos my phone was on silent mode... and bcos the train was an express... it went all the way to hornsby and i got down there... i quickly went to report to the guard on the train and he went with me back into the cabin to look for my phone... but to no avail also... i also went to report at the station office... by that time, i really was super upset... can't remember my phone model and home number... luckily i got the home number written down in my wallet... called home and realised that yochi actually called prisy when she saw that i did not get down at epping...
and when she tried to call my phone... a guy picked up the phone... and the guy was actually the one sitting beside me in the train... he was really kind enough to pick up my phone and return to yochi for me... so now... my phone's with yochi and will be getting it back from her on monday...
today's incident really woke me up and i never want to experience it again... i cannot even imagine what will happen if someone picked up the phone and took it... i would really be in deep shit...
this incident has really taught me to keep my phone properly and not be so careless...

FiRefLy/ SerEniTy...

What a hectic last week of school before the exams this has been! so many assignments due the week before the exams and dun even have time to blog...
this is also all prisy and michelle's faults... especially prisy... before i came here, i dun even like to watch those sci-fi shows but now, after i came here, prisy got me hooked on shows like star wars, lord of the rings, fifth element, star trek, aliens, and now the latest one is Firefly...
it is produced by the same producer of buffy the vampire slayer... and i must say, the show is really good... very funny and the characters are all very interesting and funny...
didn't even hear abt this show until when i came back from work that night, and heard prisy and michelle laughing...
and i sat there for a while, thinking to rest for a little while and then do my assignment, and before i know it... shit... i was so hooked on the show... and the movie Serenity is actually based on the series firefly...
okay, so all of us sat there in front of the tv, till 2am watching the show... and guess what... we decided to go watch the movie... the movie has already been out since september already... and when i first saw the trailer, i didn't really like the show... but the movie was really good... one of the best movies i've seen...

oh man, all of us are now so hooked with the show... that's why we were watching the show on both nights consecutively... and i ended up starting my assignment just two days before it was due... and michelle actually found out that Joss Whedon, the producer actually wanted to continue with season 2 but the show got cut off... i actually thought the series was pretty good...
she even went to buy the dvd for the show... and we were also like saying, if there was like a petition to support the show for season 2, all of us will sign on it...

went to this faraway place called Alexandria yesterday... anyway, bought another skirt.... i dun even know why i keep buying skirts when i dun even wear them... and now it's so hot and the stupid flies are back again... like seriously, they are everywhere... sickening :(

wed... went to eastwood to eat at the roast pork shop with amelia and karen... received an accelerated program in cantonese... all thanks to karen... she taught me how to pronounce the menu in canto and also taught me how to speak canto... after eating, they came over to do their assignments... wed was a super super hot day... stayed till 7pm... hmm...i think we laughed and talked nonsense more than we did our assignments...

HoME...

so sian rite now... i should be mugging now... but i dun feel like it... so i am going to blog and complain again... hmmm...
as usual... exams are coming, and i haven't started studying and all my assignments are accumulating ( what's new?)... i am so tired every time i go home... especially after work... and then i dun feel like studying or i would feel sleepy after reading like 2 pages... no matter how much i sleep, also not enough... i think something's wrong with me...

not much happening stuff these few days... except at work... the evil woman is becoming nice to me... made me really suspicious... i won't be fooled by her though... like on mon... i pressed the wrong key and the transaction already went thru... so i had to call for her and she apologized to the customer on my behalf and she even pat my back and asked me not to worry abt it... what the hell... anyway, i still dun like her...

kept thinking and doing other things like watching tv and reading and surfing the internet instead of mugging... and thinking of the things that i want to do and buy when i go back... can't wait... counting down the days when i am finally home again...really miss it...

WOrLd CuP FeVEr...

World Cup 2022, held in Qatar this time around, has been full of shocks and surprises... the underdogs are definitely Morroco and hopefully ...
