Ahhh I just love the weekend. Time for me get some proper rest and get myself ready for the next week.

Going to hunt for formal/office attire tomorrow. And not forgetting a lipstick. And a pair of shoes.

Received my second assignment yesterday. This time we have to choose to plant herb, vegie and/or fruit trees. Anyway, my group decided to plant vegies and herbs, since fruit trees can be troublesome, and the lec said we'll need to show her the fruits. o.o""" For example if we plant a chilli plant, we need to show her the chilli, if not marks will be deducted. Ad she also doesn't allow us to dye our hair. WTH? Now I can't dye my hair red. gah

Today had economics lecture. Not bad, but kinda boring too since we have to sit there and listen. I like subjects that have practicals better XD Like on Thursday, we had a tour around the hospitality block. Visited the laundry room, restaurant, pantry and kitchen. While we're in the restaurant, the promoted students had to show to us the different kinds of cutleries and when are they used. I really liked that and enjoyed myself trying to identify which is which.

After economics, we had Intro to the hospitality industry lecture. But since we have a trip coming up, we used the time to elect the committee. Was busy reading my book throughout the whole thing.

Oh and I'm home alone this weekend. Hopefully those dreadful pests won't show up again.

Okay the management finally fixed the cables and I can use the internet now. But its really laggy and this really pisses me off. Way to go streamyx. And I can't even sign into streamyx. Bah using ebuddy at the moment.

Okay so I had Jap class again today. According to the timetable, class starts at 12. Went there and found out class actually starts at 12.30 =______=""" And I'm telling you this is not my fault. I copied it from my friend. SO anyway went to the library again. And I went to class late.

WTH? =___=""" luckily the lecturer didn't mind, so I was saved. Japanese class is kinda fun. Learning new things and am loving it. Towards the last fifteen minutes, since we havent know each other yet, our lecturer made us go around asking people's name in Japanese. It was really fun and I can't help but laugh cause I find it funny.

Went to pasar malam just now with my housemates and friend, Catherine. Bought our dinner there. And I must say, dinner is really dissapointing today =/. I went to this that sells fried raddish( dunno if its correct or not) , waited there for quite a while and man.....it is tasteless! I thought it was good as there's a crowd last week and this week.Anyway, we've decided not to go there again next week. Duduk rumah makan lagi bagus.

Oh oh, before I forget, I need to buy a formal office wear, white top and black trousers/skirt, dunno what shoes and lipstick. Our lecturer for Intro to Hospitality Industry is making us wear that every Monday. Thank god I don't have to apply ther makeup or else it'll be disasterous. But why do I have to dress so grown up?????????

wee~ i've got my laptop now. I don't have to go to the cybercafe just to use the computer anymore now. However for some reason I can't acces the wireless internet here =___=

Okay, I'll talk about my first day at college post-orientation. Woke up around 6.30 because me and my housemates planned to go to college early to get our timetable. Went there, copied it and found it weird because one of my friends, who happened to be in the same course and class told me class starts at 10.30 but the time in the timetable stated it is at 9. So anyway, didn't think much about it and went to class at 9. BIG MISTAKE. When I entered the lecture hall andsat down, one of them said this.

senior:Are you a freshie? You're in the wrong class. This is year 2 student class.

Me:EH????? That means I've copied the wrong timetable. Shit! Thanks for telling.

And I bolted out from there. =_____________="""""Damn embarrassing

SO with one and a half our to class, I decided against going back and went to the library instead. Then when it's time to go, I was nearly late because I can't find the lock where my class is being held.( the campus is so freaking huge la and its a nightmare for someone with no sense of direction like me)

Our first and only lesson for the day is Intro to Hosptality. The first thing the lecturer told us is that we're having a trip to Penang on the 28th till the 30th of June. =DD But this trip is not just all fun and play. We have to plan the entertainment for the two nights we're there. And do a lot of research and surveying as the lecturer had already handed out our first assignment. Gah hope will be able to survive. Anyway Monday is a good day. I have only one class XD

Tuesday- Had Japanese class today. Not bad, but I'll need to put in more effort. Having our first test on the third week. However there's good news for us. For our Japanese exam, 40% will be from the final exam and 60% from our coursework. The reason for the change was a lot of non-chinese background students (read: banana) usually fail the translating kanji to english test. SO I guess this is really beneficial for me. After that, no more classes for me as English and some so-called nation building class is cancelled. If not, I'll have classes till 7. And oh,Im joining the swimming club as my mum doesn't really like the idea of me joining taekwondo. And she said that I might be able to grow taller. lol.

Ok I'm back home now. Wasn't planning on coming back this weekend but mum insisted so yeah here I am now. Orientation was a lot of fun, but I got sunburn. More on that later.

Sunday, pre-orientation night. Was in my room looking for something, can't really remember, but when I lifted my handbag, guess what? A FREAKING COCKROACH ran out. I screamed and ran to the my housemate's room and asked for help. Ah Fei ( that's what they called him, they didn't give me his real name ) took a plastic bag and managed to capture it after a while. When we're about to sleep, another housemate, David came knocking on our door and said," Eh help me. There's a COCKROACH in my room." Me and my roommate got up grudgingly to help him. And after the cockroach was captured by Fei, we went back to our room. Just when we lied down to sleep, another knock and another cockraoch was seen scampering from the kitchen to the hall. WTFish man!!!! We were so tired that we couldn't be bothered anymore.

Monday, orientation. Went to college at around 8.50 and my roommate decided to drive since the weather looked rather gloomy. After taking part in a survey, we were separated according to our courses to get our T-shirt and an orientation kit. I was assigned to Group 17. Even though its ice breaking, most of us are really quiet. Managed to make friends though. And oh I must say, I learnt a lesson on this day. My gf ( group facilitator, a senior ) looked like a model nerd. Glasses and hair. And and he looked kinda stiff like he's not used to the crowd or something. And not forgetting to mention, he's really skinny. After awhile, another senior who's an orientation assistant came over to our group to get us to talk. This is what he said or its something like that.

OA: Eh you guys better get to know each other. If you don't your gf will come after you all. Do you know he's a taekwondo master?

US: o.o!!!!!!

I'm telling you, that moment was like WTH???! I guess we really can't judge a someone by their appearance. >___> Anyway day 1 was kinda boring. Was falling asleep after ice breaking.

Tuesday,even worse. More and more briefing and introduction to society. Hmm, I really can't decide. taekwondo or swimming club?

Wednesday, guess how I start my day? I just came out of the bathroom when I felt somehting on my shoulder. Guess what it is? A freaking cockroach. Swatted it off and ran away.Worse, the cockroach flew into the kitchen and my housemates all balik kampung=__________=. Had a campus tour later and had group discussion for our drama performance. Went to the pasar malam at night with two group members and our agf.

Thursday. Okay interesting day since we have station games. And in these games, a lot of water are involved. The seniors like to get us wet. Wait that sounds wrong. =____= anyway, was drenched at the end of the game. Went back to hostel to change and shower and went back to college again for another game. Its something like treasure hunt where we have to complete certain things to get a piece of the puzzle. Do you guys have any idea how hot the weather is? It is so hot that on our way to the basketball court, even our slippers heat up. And in the end, everyone got sunburnt. I got it on my face, my shoulders, and a bit on my legs. =___= I think I got the most, since most of the members got it on their face. And I want to know how in the world can a guy who's wearing trackpants get sunburn on his legs only??????? Anyway went back to hostel for a rest after the whole thing is over to rest. Woke up with a flu. Thanks a lot seniors. Went out for dinner with group members before going for drama rehearsal. At the end of the rehearsal there's a firework display nearby. A nice way to end the evening =DD Went back and had a nice sleep.

Friday, D-day. More last minute rehearsal and fine tuning of the script. Drama went ok. And oh, I think I'm getting nightmares tonight. Group 1's performance really scarred me. They had to do a dance and ......they got a boy who cross-dressed to perform a sexy dance with another guy. And it got worse here. From sexy dance it somehow became something that looked like some animal mating ritual. @_____________@ Even the MC said he's so going to get nightmares. And I don't blame him. And throughout the whole thing, there are a lot of cross-dressers too. And I think they really made them wear bras. >___<

Overall, orientation is really fun. And I'll like to say thanks to our gf and agf for being really really nice and helpful, even if they don't know I have a blog.

P/S: I got the college calender and my semester break is in September. UGH! Oh yeah we will be having a prom, but dunno when.

Okay now I'm updating from a cybercafe that's near my hostel. I just had lunch with my housemates. And my housemates are really wonderful people. They're really welcoming me and good thing is they can cook and drive!! They're really nice and am getting along nicely with them =P ( man i hate this keyboard. can't really type properly. or maybe I'm just not used to it yet. )

Ok so today is my second day here and I'm getting used to it, though I still tear up when I think about home. =( I'm such a crybaby. But I think I'll get better in time. or once college start, which is tomorrow.

I dunno what I should bring to college, besides notebooks and my stationery. Gah oh well, I'll just leave it.

Oh yeah, I'll not be going home once a month like I planned. It'll be very rush and tiring for my mum to come and fetch me (saturday) and send me back here again.(sunday) So I'm only going back during semester break. Anyway, my mum is coming to visit me this Saturday, so if anyone wants to visit me, you guys can tumpang my mum. Hmm I guess that's it for now.

Went to the warehouse sales today. Bought six books ( or was it seven?) and it cost me only 44 (or 46). Unfortunately, they only have till book eight of Princess Diaries =/ That sucks... I thought they'll have the complete set. But neway, might go again tomorrow cause mum wants to buy cookbooks since they're so cheap. And I've devoured the Princess Diaries, 5 (or 6) more to go. I'm bringing them along when I go this saturday.

And oh, if you guys have any bicycle that's in good condition and you don't want anymore, you can sell it to me. People get driving license, they buy a car. I get driving license, I buy bicycle. =_=

Wednesday, May 13, 2009

Ok I'm back from Perak, with a place to stay at. weee~ So now all's there's left to do is to start packing and get ready to move this saturday. I'm going to stay at an apartment ( I think its an apartment) with four strangers, one of them is a girl who's gonna be my roommate. According to the hostel manager, they're friends, so it looks like I'm kinda intruding them, hope they won't mind. Anyway, mum says if I have problem, she will change me to a single room. Rent is almost 200, but I think its pretty reasonable since most of the things are prepared ( study table, chairs bla bla and a cleaning lady will come and clean our room once a week. So, which means, my room won't up a pigsty lol. Am not getting a laptop yet, will do in the near future.

The apartment has two bathroom (yay!) and a kitchen, so El, I won't be eating out all the time ;). Now the only thing I need to do, LEARN how to cook. Even my youngest bro can cook wei. wth la. And my mum is buying me lots of stuff to bring there so that I won't starve. lol .

Going to buy books tomorrow. For those who don't know, there's a book clearance sale. They're selling Princess Diaries books for only RM5. THAT'S DIRT CHEAP. So my dad is being nice and said he'll send me there tomorrow =3. Oh I can't wait to buy them all. If you guys are interested, check out here.

Update done. =) till next time peeps.

Omg. Mr Ivan Lim has a blog. D= Surprise surprise. And hey if you're reading, forgot to ask you this earlier, can I link you? =DD And this is a really small world after all.

driving test is in a few hours time, I think, and I have no idea what time it is and I'm feeling really really guilty cause I'm pau-ing (sp??) my test. And I dont really think I can sleep since I have a MAJOR problem now. My cousin is back in town, which means.....WHERE THE HELL am I going to stay in Kampar????? shoot. Damn suay la, and if you're wondering why I didnt look for a place to stay at earlier, my mum planned to last week, but the both of us were not feeling well at that time so we cancelled it.

Wednesday, May 06, 2009

College is starting soon and I still havent found a place to stay. WTFish......... but it seems like i'm staying with my cousin for awhile till I find my own roommates. And I'm beginning to have second thoughts. Was I too rash? Am I not going to regret my decision? hm... recently I fell sick (fever 40 degrees + cough+ diarrhea + vomitting) and I realised that I'm too dependant on my mum for every single thing. Need to get rid of this bad habit soon.

P/S : I don't wanna see/read/hear the word paracetomol again. =__=
