I hate you. I hate you. I hate you.
I have a LONG day ahead and I woke up earlier to get a good start. But you had to go screw up my morning.
Damn you.

Blogging mood over...?
You might have to wait a month or more for another long string of blog entries.
then again, i might surprise myself and blog everyday again just to waste time.
I've got nothing intelligent to say. Or nothing to ramble about, but i will find something to write anyway.
...
Our MySA president wants to treat our ECs a lunch for their hard work in panning the GC trip. No doubt the ECs spent a lot of time doing research for the trip. But the thing is- the trip isn't going to happen. No one is going to GC and thus all the work has been rather pointless. (But not completely... of course we can always go to GC ourselves and all the previous research done would be very useful.) Anyway, my point is... why treat now when technically nothing has been done and there's nothing to rejoice about? why not wait until we have actually succesfully planned, and carried out a planned activity- wouldn't that be a better reason to treat the ECs? Imagine the lunch: "Lets make a toast- to the hard work of the ECs. Unfortunately this event did not happen and it also lead to a massive argument between committee members." Yes. lets rejoice.
It doesn't make sense to me to treat them to lunch now when we are still thinking of what we can do in place of the GC trip. i.e. its not over yet. Unless mr president is planning to treat them for every event we do. I don't think so. (No offence to EC's though, i believe you guys deserve something in return for all that time spent on research.)
Hm. so much for 'nothing to write about'- see, when i sit here, things come to mind. Therefore maybe i should sit here more often. I Do have things to write about.... =S ON the other hand, i shouldn't sit here because tha tmeans i would spend time writing and that's not good. ive got 2 tests coming up this week which i am not yet ready for. And work. And a couple of dinners (And maybe a lunch) and im still behind on being up to date with normal lectures (Pharmaceutics..... grrr...)
I want it to be warm. I want to go to the beach. I want to sit on the sand, feel the wind blowing, stare out into the sea, and watch the sunset. Because the sunset at Henley is gorgeous.

To: 'You'
I dont feel like going anymore...
I can get a flightthere for $119. why would i pay $199 just because we have to wait for confirmation of others before we buy our tickets. Think of how much i can do with $80. Oh, make that $160 because if i go there, i need to come back.
Not everyone is like you. You don't understand the things some of us go through to confirm a holiday like this. It's not about the effort it takes to get approval from parents. It's the guilt and thoughts that go through my head when i ask for something this big. What have i done to deserve it? I would take any chance i have to save just a few dollars more if it's possible. And if i can plan this trip another time, and book tickets months ahead and save some cash- i would rather do that than to go on this less than succesful trip with a handful of people i dont really know. And for something like this, i need the anticipation. I need to plan ahead what i need to do. I can't still be unsure of it a couple of weeks before i'm supposed to go. Heck, i dont even have a right suitcase for this holiday. Is it too late to change my mind?
I know how much effort some of you have put into planning this trip, but i really don't think it will work. Sorry for being so negative. I'm just trying to be sensible.

Oh no. It's THAT person. Run and hide.
Why?
I can't figure out why I avoid certain people. I feel bad about it. Plus, it creates awkward situations. So why bother with it? Why don't I just pretend everything's ok and let things be the same as it used to be? Wait- did i say pretend? If there's nothing wrong in the first place then there's no need to pretend. So why pretend there's something wrong then pretend there's nothing wrong? thats just a waste of emotional energy. =.=
One of the reasons i avoid certain people is because its just 'what we do'. When a friend starts doing something, it's contagious and everyone in that group of friends is infected with the "i need to avoid that person" disease. So we just do it because thats the way it is. But sometimes as an individual, you don't feel the same way about that person as the rest of the group may. Or maybe in actual fact, only one person in the group feels that way but they share it around and all of a sudden everyone agrees. If you stand up and do what you feel like doing, you're afraid that the rest of your friends feel like you're boycotting against them, and slowly but surely you'll lose them as your friends. So the whole avoiding people business... it's difficult to be an individual and think for yourself because there's so many factors involved... You got two choices- 1) to avoid that specific someone like you would do when you're with your friends even when you're alone, or 2) you pretend to be like your friends around them, but when you're alone you forget the whole barrier avoiding person thing. (and hope your friends don't find out) Friends can be selfish. They want to keep you for themselves. I'm your friend, you're my friend. So no one else interfere! When new people come in they become defensive, afraid of losing a best friend. I was going to write more about stuff but i'm going a bit off topic. SO: in conclusion,
Simple things in life can sometimes be so complicated.
I feel like baking.

Stuff!
Adelaide doesn't know normal weather.
It's either extremely hot, or too cold. What's wrong??? ok, its nice in the day time when its sunny but at night the temperature just DROPS.
Anyway- i need to sort out priorities. I'm trying to. Today i handed in my group report 5 minutes before it was due. Then i got an email from my lecturer telling me off for not sending it to him in the correct format. im SO GLAD he still accepted it. NEVER EVER EVER again will i leave an assignment to the lsat minute. I seriously wouldn't though.. we were supposed to start that last week. but then my group member didn't show up. So i was going to send off an email that day itself to tell them to meet up some other time in the same week. But i forgot and before i knew it it was Friday again and we met up again to do the next prac. So after that prac we decided to meet up to do the report. think about it: the prac was on Friday. THey decided to meet up only on Wednesday. the report is due Friday. which leaves us 2 days to do the report which none of us really understood in the first place. SO we had TONS Of trouble. luckily i know someone who's done the same practical report so we got Some help but i dont like asking help from people unless they're lecturers or close friends.... =S anyway, finally handed it in, but i think it was VERY BADLY done, especially since our results were messed up. i can kiss goodbye to 7.5% on pharmaceutics. of all subjects.... i had to choose the hardest one (supposed to be the hardest subject) to throw away 7.5% on. AGH. i want to blame it completely on my group members but i can't. cuz im at fault too. ALthough i did put the final version of the report together and handed it in. that makes me feel better. But that's so silly. i shouldnt feel any better about that. blah im just going on about crap now. im amazed if you read through the whole thing. but i thank you if you did. moving on...
There's gonna be two tests a couple of weeks from now. Tomorrow im working, then i'm (hopefully) going out at night. (i need to have some drinks and DANCE. The report and some other things id rather not say stressed me out...) Sunday, ill be working too. But after that- i need to STUDY. yep yep... ive been doing ok so far with keeping up with my lectures. Ive gone over pharmceutics for the past 2 weeks, so i just need to finish up this week's pharmaceutics (i always need to go over pharmaceutics cuz i never know whats going on during the lecture itself. im so thankful he records his lectures)
I think i'm ok and up to date with Chemistry. We have tutorials and i go over tut work before it starts...
I just need to keep up with physiology (test is on 31st march...) and biochem (test on 3rd april). Yea... the subjects that i have tests on i dont study. Smart right? ><
SO i got sunday night, and monday to catch up with stuff. thanks to easter holidays...
I can do this.
in 3 weeks time is our mid semester break! I can't believe im counting down already...
Now i need to fold laundry, and clear up my room a bit... It once again looks like a tornado went through it...

One of 'those days'.
They come they go you'll get over it.
In the meantime, you hate yourself more than the world hates you. Yes, the world hates you too.
Don't worry about me though. I don't need justification for why write certain things. Sometimes some things just come to mind. They probably don't make much sense, but that's what blogs are for :)
Adelaide is finally cool again. I didn't have to wait for Wednesday after all. it went down to 20 today. I missed the sun today though. I like the sun. It brings Joy... and Happiness... and joyfulness! (Did this come from the candymountain youtube clip?)
Goodbye Charlie.

Sometimes.
Selfish?
yeah... maybe. But everyone will put themselves first at least once in their lifetime.
I do it, you do it. Tell me honestly you've never done so before. You can't.
On a different note, i got myself a shift on a public holiday. how awesome is that? im only working 3 hours. i'll get 6 hour pay. totally love it. best time to start work--> easter weekend. *grin* But its only for this week. we will sort out the rest later...

The weekend FLEW by.
It was friday night just a while ago. Now it's almost 2am Sunday night. Time kind of jumped out the window and disappeared.
Friday night i made a short trip to the market with conie to get my supply of fruits and some vege for the week. For some strange reason we were both totally exhausted so we went home directly after that planning to sleep. But knowing us, and being a friday night- who sleeps at 10pm?? stayed up still quite late watching tv andbeing on the computer...
Saturday, i woke up and had brunch and i have no idea what else i did (i probably woke up quite late) but i had to catch a bus to the pharmacy for work. So i waited from 12pm to 12:35 for the bus to come (SO LONG! WTH!) and by the time i got to the pharmacy i only had about 10mins to look around for shoes at the nearby supermarket for my work on monday. ANyway, so i couldn't buy anything, but i started work at 1pm, and ended at 5.
I'm quite annoyed at the pharmacist. I'm there to gain PHARMACY work experience. NOT retail or shopkeeper work experience. So i was there doing things like vacuuming, mopping and restocking shelves. THat's what i did at Guardian Pharmacy in singapore, and in Malaysia. and i was being PAID for it. AND Even then i didnt have to MOP the floor (in spore) cuz that's the job of a JANITOR. And when it came to explaining pharmacy stuff- she rushed through everything and when i asked questions she replied in a tone that made me feel STUPID. as if it was the most obvious thing in the world- how can i not know.... SO. i was quite annoyed, but its my first day there so i dont want to say anything to her. Plus, i really need to get my work experience hours sorted out. And i can't find anywehre else to do it.
Hopefully she'll be more helpful next time, and if it really isn't working out for me i'lljust have to let he rknow ive got too many things going on and just... stop.
and try to get work experience somewhere else (conie... help... ^^;)
i got back in the evening and rested a while, and went to uni after dinner to study some pharmaceutics cuz i had no clue what was going on lectures. at least i feel a bit more educated right now.
Today i had a MySA Committee meeting which started at 1 and felt like it took up the entire day although we wereonly there for an hour and a half or so~ after the meeting i went to rundle mall to look for shoes (since i dind tget to buy any yesterday). Then i went home, dropped off stuff, and called mum. then later in the evening (i didnt do much in between. travel time, waiting for buses and looking for things took a long time) i went to play basketball with margaret, eli and conie. i got home after 8pm, had dinner, and watched lots of tv, and now its 2pm.
and my weekend's over!
fast right?
it was fast...
And I have a very hectic week to look forward to... wish me luck.
goodnight.

Serendipity
I haven't been updating regularly at all. I haven't been writing in my diary either. There's no record of anything at all since the time i arrived bacn in adelaide except the past little entries. I hate myself now for not writing anything. It seems like ive been back for an extremely long time, but its only been 3 weeks. 3 weeks isn't a long time is it? I guess depends on how you look at it.
Week 1 was just... empty. i did nothing i guess. it was a week of enjoying the cool weather, getting myself used to the adelaide life, appreciating silence and being alone. It's quite refreshing after living with my family for 3 months. But i miss being home. Apart from being around family, there's so much less to do at home. Especially since we were on holidays which gives more reason to not help out in house chores. :)
and the shopping... i never thought i'd get sick of it, but i had to do a bit too much. But that feeling of being sick of shopping only lasted a while, and now back in adelaide i feel like shopping again. haha. :)
Uni started in week to and the temperature skyrocketted to 37 degrees Celcius average. it hasn't gone down since and i'm waiting for wednesday when (fingers crossed) it will cool down to the low 30's. First week of uni was also Unilife Uweek, which is when clubs and associations get to promote themselves and get members. So i spent some time with that, and of course getting to classes and sorting out my timetable which is quite confusing this year with people going to practical classes on alternate weeks and stuff.. i can't just follow people anymore. hehe. At the end of the week, i spent some time meeting friends...
After that was an entire week of PANIC about planning a trip to Gold Coast, and the General Meeting for the malaysian students association scheduled for 14th March since our last committee meeting last year.
So there we were today at 12pm, after sitting through another meeting before uni started, and sending gazillions of emails over the week.. and there was 2 people sitting in the room waiting for the meeting to start. 2 people. at 12pm. for a meeting that was supposed to start at 12.
Thankfully, about 15 mins later more and more people came and started to fill up the room. Trust the malaysians to come on time... we finally started the meeting at 12:30pm and im proud to say, (aside from the late start, which was expected, so it wasnt too bad) it was a very successful meeting, and considering it's the first thing we (the new committee) organised we're very happy at how well it went. :) and i also spoke in front of a pretty reasonable sized group of strangers. it was quite satisfying. on top of that we managed to get 2 people who actually want to be on the committee to fill up the 2 vacant positions, and got a bunch of new members and i think some people are actually interested in the gold coast trip. maybe we can get 10 people (or more!) to go. hopefully... then we don't have to cancel it and we'll all have a good time.
o right, since i got back i also got myself a job at hungry jacks, found somewhere to do my pharmacy work experience (which im starting tomorrow), opened a new bank account, sold off last year's textbooks, met some new students, and heard about some juicy gossip stories... lol.
i think it's a pretty good start to the year. dont you think? :)
keep checking. i will update.

Finally, something to keep you all amused:
I just got back from singapore and i was alone. you can't blame me... ;)
p/s: i know this whole post has nothing to do with the blog title. I just watched the movie and i loved it, and serendipity is such a pretty word.

Holiday!
Today is Adelaide Cup Day so it's a public holiday. This country makes a horse racing day a public holiday. It's brilliant :)
So we took the chance to visit Madeline in the North to see where she lives and have lunch together. it's a friggin HOT day and we walked there. and waited forever for the bus to come to go back south. =.= But it was pretty fun... wandering around the city with friends. :)

Adelaide Bank Festival
Event name: "Northern Lights"
Ok, so they're not the 'Northern Lights' that i've heard about normally in the skies... but it's the most amazing display ever. They shone light on buildings and it looked like they're painted on!! (that was probably really bad english but i can't figure out how else to phrase it...)
Enjoy the pictures! (unfortunately, i took these with my phone camera, so its not the best quality...)
this looks like its been colored with highlighers...
Same building, different design
The design on this building is on both sides! Not just the front!
Art gallery- you see those statues?? They're NOT REAL.
The next 3 pics are all of the same building... (i like the 2nd one... its neat)
Another design for the double sided one...
THe other side of the same building. turns out the design is on 3 sides! Books on the side of the building...
I kinda liked this one.. i guess cuz of the colors.
OK, so i got home at about 1am after taking loads of pictures of buildings, hanging out along torrens river, and pancake kitchen and just doing nothing in all... and my brother left this on the table while he pretended to be asleep (he didnt sleep till like.. 3am later. -.-)
I still haven't figured out what happened to that coaster. He won't tell me.

This one is really simple, but because of that it works really well. and it looks real! kind of ugly colored though.
