well its 2.15pm here and im stuck in school. today i have a total of 8hrs of labs and lectures. aih.....
the earliest was 8am. my lecturer is away in Japan so another lecturer is just covering for todays lesson then we wont be having lessons for the next 2 weeks. as we dragged ourselves out from the bed and trudge our way to class, we were comforted at the thought of the next two thursday mornings sleeping in. 845am arrived and still no lecturer. when we called her she told us that she thought the lesson was at 2.30pm. since we have another class at that time she decided that this weeks class will be forwarded to next week. WTH!!!!!!!
so we fools had to find something to do til 10am(our next class). we have been slithering from one class to another since then. my last class is at 4pm-6pm. average working hour is only 9-5 but us students have to endure 8-6. somedays poor howard even has to endure 8am classes all the way til 11pm. with only 2 hrs of break in the day for lunch and dinner.
...
who says we students have it easy?
aih......
A productive day always put me in a good mood. it makes me feel like im useful ya noe? I hate going to bed thinking that im jz taking up space in this world.
I woke up around 9am. Since its Saturday, I decided to take advantage of it and laze around abit. My plan was to get to the library by 1030am bt I only managed to get out of the house around 1045am. Oops. Got to the library around 11am. Gosh there were so many people!!! The car park’s were full and all the good tables were taken. Fortunately I managed to share a table wid another malay student who was der to on9 n study. The library has free wifi and its FAST!! My streamyx wud give me maximum 60kbps bt so did the library today! Haha. I was feeling lucky already. I settled down and started to update my things…blogs, friendster, email. Then I set my deluge to work and went to work myself. Since there’s a lot of people today my butt didn’t freeze like it usually does. As the library was closing at 2pm I finished my revision and my laptop battery was jz about to finish. Perfect timing.
Eversince I saw the preview of Warlords on the first week of dec I have been dying to see it. I suddenly envisioned the best lunch to make my day a better one than it already is. I closed my laptop drove to Mahkota Parade ( kinda like the Gurney Plaza of Malacca) and went up to GCS as quick as I can. I got there just in time. At 210pm I bought a ticket to the movie Warlords which is at 230pm. I went down to buy myself a large Diet Coke and a large CURLY FRIES!!!(dun u just love them curly deepfried gonna-kill-u-softly-sumday yummy potatoes??). the movie turned out to be quite good. I noticed at the end of the show that every movie that Jet Li does, he dies at the end of it. Be it the villain or the hero, he ALWAYS dies (hell freezes over if he didn’t!)
Its my first Takashi movie and I cant help but think he’s damn goodlooking! Acting not so good la…. Or maybe its just the part that he played la.
Anyhoo….. after the movie I went to the loo. There was a long que and this malay girl was standing behind me. Just as I was goin into a stall I heard her tell her friend “ Ya Allah bagilah aku kekuatan untuk bertahan”
…
I mean, what u gonna do, pee in ur pants?
Now for those unfortunate souls that have been dragged by me to go looking for that pillow-cum-blanket thingy, im sorry. I saw my fren Mei Lin who has this nice fluffy pillow that doubles as a blanket in her car. I remember that my darling alwiz freezes in the cinema and I really liked hugging that pillow. So I vowed to get one for my own car. On my bday I dragged both my frens to hunting for it( thanks u guys. That was a great! Day) and I dragged my mum n my not so feeling well bro hunting for it too. There were plenty of really nice ones bt I didn’t buy any cos I had found THE ONE. The one pillow that I wanted to put in my car. To hug while my darling drives. To use as a blanket when im cold.
Cute eh?
I found one in Prangin Mall but it was old. It had a hole. And it was dirty. U cant expect me to pay the exact same price for smth new that looks like wat it shud after 3yrs of purchase. Imagine how itll look like in 3yrs! Its skin colour bt the one I saw was closer to light brown. I cant hug dat! When I cudnt find a decent one in penang I decided to try Malacca. On the first try I didn’t managed to find it. Howard said give it up, im never gonna find it.
Today after the movie I decided to give it another try. I haven’t tried this mall yet cos howard said dat wudnt have wat I wanted. HAH! The first soft toy shop I walked in had 4. FOUR!!! All in perfect condition. They even had other designs but this piggy was wat I wanted. There were only 8 left in total. Now 7. Haha. After that I decided it was time for me to go home. Twas around 530pm. If I hurry I cud be in time for a hike behind my hostel. The que to pay the parking ticket was SO long dat it cost me an xtra 1.50 by the time I got to my turn. Twas rather embarrassing cos I only had 2 bucks wid me and the total was 3.50. the rest was all 10s. I knew if I inserted rm10 itll return my change in 50cents. Embarrassing!!!!!! Luckily the machine don’t accept rm10 bills and a lady was kind enough to lend me. I went into a shop to xchange my 10 for smaller bills. The gal took out a rm5 bill n 5 rm1 bills but only gave me 9bucks. Do I look gullible to u? when I asked her, she sheepishly handed me my rm1. Nah! Anyway, I returned
dat kind lady n went on my way.
this is just half the line.....
Took a nice drive home and went for my hike!
My darling was busy so I went alone bt the hike trail is usually swamped wif people. Families…. Couples….ppl fr my hostel…..today was no different. The usual 1.5hr hike took me 40mins only today. Guess without company u do travel faster! Haha. It was just me, my mp4 and a stick that I picked up along the way. It’s a nice big stick. I kept it wid me for future hikes. Since I was early I decided to get to know my neighbourhood. Turns out I was living in a Chinese neighbourhood. There was even an Bungaraya MCA house! Hahaha! All this while I never knew. Parking was kinda expensive so I wanted to even my budget out by eating at home. I wanted to eat sum fruit n vegetables too. Conclusion: salad!!!!!! Hahaha.
Who knew 2 apples, a carrot n baby tomatoes cud turn out such a big volume of food?
Took me an hour to finish( was watching Everybody Loves Raymond while eating)
Went to pick Howard up from his frens place after that dat concludes my day!
Haha
Talk about productivity.
So, did I had a good day? U bet I had a GREAT day!
~Independence is the key to happiness~
Is wat I always say.
Make urself happy first before u can even consider making others happy. Cos u cant exactly be the best anything if u urself are miserable. =)
