The time for blog bombardment again.

ideas come *snap* ideas lost.
whats wrong with me?
I just want to write. write and write and write....
but i'm so sleepy. I should get some sleep. House cleaning= long day tomorrow :S hopefully i'll get up on time to clean enough before people come for food.
yes i know i have a little house, and it really shouldn't take so long, but still.... its a chore.

and i'm sick. I feel sick-est in the morning, and at night. How strange is that? In the day i'm really not sick at all... i think im not. I was definitely feeling very well and healthy at work today.

Oh well. Time for bed.

behold the geek.

oh no, that last entry bumped the entry with pictures on it... now its plain and boring again.

maybe i'll add another picture...

Ah... love the uniformity... the colour... :)

msn-ing requires skill.

I'm boring.

I hate myself for that.

Why cant i come up withs omething to say other than

ic

oh

haha

ok

...


Either that, or I start talking about seriously boring stuff.

1 word: EXHAUSTED

And then many more words... :P

Day started at 9am. I actually woke up at 8:50am :P
rushed to campus and made it on time for my lecture....
after 3 hours of lecture i went home, made some quick sandwich lunch, and chilled out for a while... then at 2pm i had microbiology practical, which lasted the whole 3 hours AND 15MINS. and by the time i got home it was almost 5:30. Quickly filled up a pot with water, let it boil and cooked myself instant noodles >< with egg!
while waiting for water to boil, i decided to iron my uniform at home this time, so i did that.. and then i chugged down dinner (very difficult considering its soupy and VERY HOT), and ran off to work. 6 to 11:30pm. It was a long stupid shift. i was tired! but well... i can't complain. at least i have a job.

Now its time to rest and relax...

Tomorrow i have the same shift again. Oh joy. what the way to spend my friday and saturday night. BUT i'm sitll not complaining, some people have the midnight-8am shift.


1 more thing.
E.Coli and inoculation agar STINKS!
seriously. the smell has been haunting me the entire time i was at work. Everywhere i go has SOMETHING that smells like it. THE GROSSEST THING EVER. i shouldn't have sniffed it in prac today. (but then HOW ELSE was i supposed to answer the 'odour' description!?!?)

ok i lied 1 more laast thing
MY LEGS are friggin ACHING from the jog yesterday. =.="
in a way im partially glad that my work doesn't involve any sitting. So as lng as imj standing the whole time, im fine. and when im sitting im fine. but standin up and sitting down agin, or walking up or down stairs or bending down to get stuff... AAh... pain ><

Friday, August 29, 2008

ah... smells...

girl next to me is eating KFC.
Smells SO GOOD.

I want too.

But time to go home for lunch now. Proper lunch. I hope.

So... what's for lunch?

:S

hello river torrens

Hi again
It's during the busiest times that i have most blog entries :)

I finally went on a LONG OVERDUE jog today!! Ah how i missed the satisfaction arriving home half dead looking like a cooked lobster... (i hate the jogging part though. torturous ><)The same run took me longer today than it did the last time i went. I believe it was march or early april... yes it was that long ago...
Some swan babies are hatching a bit early! I saw a couple of swans with their little flock of babies today. SO CUTE. :) and then the pelicans were all gathering together... don't know why.
But the river was kind of dirty... :( it's so sad.
Whats really cool, was when this pelican flew and glided overhead, and then it turned... glided over the water for a bit, and headed MY WAY and turned up and off to the side before it hit me. WaH i was so scared for a while.

Sometimes when i'm walking around, i think of a gazillion things i want to blog about. But when i turn on the computer and finally get online- my head goes blank. It's really quite annoying.

Finally tutorial 2 is over. another 2 weeks of fun practical and no preparation :) (ok, not true. i need to fix some notes, but that shouldn't take too long)

*meow*

haha. i just realised- i'm such a copycat.
first the pubcrawl picture, then about the test.
=S
ok maybe not Just realised. I already knew :P

Today i almost missed my chem prac. i set my alarm for 8:10. i woke up at around 6-ish and relaised it was really eraly, so i went back to sleep. Suddenly jolted awake again at about 9:20am. CLASS STARTS AT 9:30!! i was wondering as hell why my alarm didn't wake me up- then i realised my alarm time was 8:10PM. genius.
Anyway, i jumped out of bed, brushed my teeth, got changed and ran off to uni. made it just on time. poor Tony looked so glad when i finally showed up. if not he'll have to do the prac on his own... our other group member didn't show up either.
We were extremely blur during the prac... no idea how to work the absorption measuring machine thing. realised that results dont make sense. Asked Dr Des Wiliams and HE DIDNT" KNOW went on and on about some theory... then asked the other demonstrator and she didn't know either. Then finally managed to catch dr Kraft when he's free and he told us what to do. Then at the end we were runing around looking for methanol... the other group stole ours... for such a short prac, we were the LAST 2 PEOPLE left in the lab at 12:10pm when we finally finished clearing up etc.
pray that that doesn't happen again for my next practical....

Anyway. i;'ve had a looong day, but its almost 10pm and i still haven't done my pre-prac/tutorial preparation for pharmaceutics tomorrow. so OFF TO WORK i go. now.

It's been a while since i blabbed about 'my day' on my blog hasn't it? :) about time...
The man at Campus Central can go to hell. Lazy bastard.

microbiology and immunology.

I'M GOING TO FAIL TOMORROW'S TEST!!!!!!!!!!!

its 5 percent. can't do much harm can it? =S

My weekend: The Merdeka Dinner and Pharmacy Pubcrawl

Long story short...
on Sunday, there was the Merdeka dinner. Pretty fun night. Had a chance to dress up, look pretty, eat with a large gathering of malaysians to celebrate 51 years of independence in Malaysia :) Group picture of the people I know
My table! It was an experience... self-proclaimed VIP's at the front table. hahaha. it was pretty embarassing but quite funny actually. The whole VIP entrance procession, and getting invited on stage to hand out lucky draw presents... Its not everyday we get to do something like that. So, sorry if i was complaining before about sitting away from friends at the VIP table. Now i'm just grateful for the opportunity. Can't say i didn't enjoy it. :)


girlies :) with our dresses.

Then there was the pharmacy pubcrawl on Friday night (ok, so technically this should have been up before the merdeka dinner, but i cant be bothered to switch pictures, around.) The whole gist of it can be gotten from conie's blog. feel free to browse to the 'links' section on my blog and look for *conie* :P i'm too lazy to post everything up. plus, my class starts in 7 hours time. I need to sleep soon.

so here's one picture0 me, conie and marina. marina- thanks for joining us! would have been so bored without you there <3

AAndd... for the sweetest picture of the night.... presenting...



:)

told you i was going to get my revenge. haha. xoxo

What were you thinking?

I’ve realized….
There’s nothing I can do that would make people think otherwise. Is there?

I’m really not a confusing person. What you see, is what you get. I’m a blabber. If you’ve spoken to me before you should know. If I’m comfortable around you, I can go on and on. And I let it all out. I don’t have many secrets. So if there’s anything for you to know, you should already know it.

I try not to do things with ‘hidden meanings’. What I do, is exactly that- I just do, because I feel like it. For fun perhaps. Maybe the other night there was another reason for doing what I did, but definitely not the reason you were thinking. There was only one ‘hidden reason’ and the person who should know what it is has already been told. (not that I wanted to bring it up, but I had to defend myself) And that’s it. Nothing else. For those of you who are ‘reading between the lines’. Well, sad to say you’ve been making up things, because all there is in between – is blank space.

A little something

I know I said I was going offline to all you msn people out there. But i didn't say i was going to sleep. although i did say i was going to get off the computer, but I've been in a blogging mood these past couple of days (see previous blogs... super monologueing...). This is going to be long and pointless.

Anyway. I just wanted to share a little something with you guys.

Almost a couple of years ago, I started a new blog. This is its first entry:

A start of something new... (19 Nov 06)
this is my brand new blog.
at the moment me, and only me knows of its existence.im trying to find out how to make this a protected blog where only certain people i choose to allow can visit. but i dont know how. i need swati's help.i've been a bit troubled the past few days. for many reasons.

ah i dont know what to write. im too lazy...i still miss them very very much and i think thats causing my whole body to be a bit messed up and therefore messing up my menstrual cycle and it totally sucks. not only my period is mesesd up, its like im having constant PMS its not funny.agh.maybe i shouldnt give out this blog address after all... i need somewhere to ramble.

And I surprised myself- but until now the blog remains hidden and totally safe. At least that's what I believe. *Yay*

Most of my ramblings are well... for me and me only to read. But there are a few entries I can't figure out why i decided to post there, instead of here... SO here they are :) (because my body doesn't want to get into bed.)

New Year. (6 January 07)
Last year was one of the most interesting years. i guess my years get more and more interesting each year... but then last year really WAS special cuz its the time of transition. I finished high school. I got myself JOBS. i worked.

screw this i can't write... agh.

try.

no. wth. screw this.

What a failed entry. :S

Friday, 19 January 2007

It's always very nervewrecking when i open my blog. what if someone, somehow, manages to find my blog and not nonly find it,but some how manage to hack their way through the password thing and READ IT!??? OMG scary thought.
i'm getting freaked out about uni.
i still can't cook
i still don't have everything i need
i have WAY too much stuff to carry
i don't know what to pack
i need to finish my scholarship application which i CANNOT WRITE.
and im not ready!!!

omg die.
die
die
die.

surprise surprise. I'm still alive.



Friday, 26 January 2007

After all that waiting, waiting and more waiting, its almost time.2 more weeks and i'll be in australia. 2 more weeks and i'll be meeting the people i'll spend the next 4 years with.
Its been about 6 months since i last saw amy.
Its been almost 5 months since i last saw adam.
In 2 weeks time it will be at least 10 months before i see mjelva, sheila, ritika, jennie, wanda, swati, martina, and that makes it 15 months till i see adam, and 16 months amy. thats IF we turn up in singapore in december. very small likelyhood. but there's nothing wrong with hoping.
Dom, i might meet in adelaide.

i'm rather depressed at the moment.i feel like crying. :(
yet at the same time i'm having a really cheerful chat with mjelva, and i just made my sis very happy and i appear to be cheery to her too.msn is an amazing thing. kind of hard at times, like now. When i end up pretending everything's okay. when it's not really. im depressed.

i love every aspect of being a girl. except the menstrual cycle. it drives me nuts.

oh, by the way- im going to adelaide alone now.

I still haven't met up with Amy since she left Singapore when i WAS IN KUANTAN. It annoys me to think how much i missed in Amy's last week in Singapore. And it totally wasn't planned. We had so many things planned for the last week and all of a sudden I couldn't be there. Imagine my frustration, anger and sadness.

OMGGGGGGG.I swear I have some sort of disease... (16 June 2007)
what the HELL is wrong with me?!?
its my FIRST semester, my FIRST uni exams, its a saturday night 1am. my first paper is in 55 hours and IM ONLINE and i have been online for the past 3 hours! (or if i wasnt onlie i was talking to wendy)and pa and sis is here and i could be spending time with them but i SAID I was going to STUDY but here i am.
why?
i dont know.
oh no wait. im a freakin idiot. thats why.
GO AND STUDY B*TCH.
agh.
killyou.
die.
go study.
or die.

seriously girl.you'll fail chem if you do nt study.you have 10 lectures to go through, gazillion tutorial questions and lots of revision.
get GOING.

bye

I didn't fail. :)

OK. enough time wasting. The rest is for me to keep.
I should sleep now and wake up before lunch hour tomorrow.
By the way, after ALL these years, I just found out my blog only publishes in ONE FONT no matter how i format it beforehand. seriously.

hmmph

everytime you do that invisible writing thing, i get worried. yes, you know who you are. :)
But i dont ask about it because if you want to blurt you probably would. Since you didn't, I know it's none of my business. (or maybe sometimes it is, but its not... ?)

we all have our limits.
there used to be a boulder in between. Then it was just a wall. then it became cardboard. followed by paper. Now i it's just a membrane.

So i apologise if it breaks faster than you expect it to. I really am sorry.
(Doesn't help that auntie doesn't want to visit... Then again when she does visit, i have no more excuses. maybe i wont need any. for real. maybe it really is because of her)

1 week before mummy visits

...and my sis too.

I've got this week to completely SCRUB my home!! its never been in a bigger mess before. (ok. not true. exam time was just as bad, or maybe worse). I've got to do something with the laundry pile, the stained carpet, the mineral deposits in the bathroom... :S sounds like im living in a dumpster doesnt it? don't get me wrong, i have a lovely home. I just need to um... fix it a little.
But i not only need to clean up my house, i STILL havent organised my semester 1 notes which need to be put away, and i need to write out a pretty timetable to stick on my desk corkboard so i can see what classes i have the next day instead of having to rummage through my bag everytime i need to know... (since i can't get my head around when my classes are.... hey, even in the last week of uni last semester i had to refer to my timetable. i think. conie has been my walking timetable. thank you love :))

On top of that, I believe i should have some proper food in my fridge instead of pies, sausages and frozen fish and chips...
So maybe this saturday afternoon will be market day. IF i can get up on time. I should be able to. Its not like im working overnight. no excuse.

Hm... I can't wait for mum to get here :) I want to eat good home food. Haha.

By the way, I spoke to some Indian guy during the Msian Carnival (conie left the table, then this indian man came and sat opposite me and started yakking away...) And he said we can get Pandan leaves (frozen) from vietnamese grocery. In chinatown i presume. So maybe we CAN cook nasi lemak afterall... It's just the sambal that we'll have a problem with....
bah.. whats nasi lemak without the sambal... :(
well, I could be very hardworking and look up a recipe. But until now i stil haven't tried cooking chicken rice myself. What are the chances of me cooking nasi lemak instead?

hm. but i'll be here alone for quite a long time during the Summer Break. Maybe i'll do stuff then! yeah! why not? :) ok. i'm thinking WAaaaayy too far ahead... We're only in our second week of Uni. *hmmph* I can't wait.

So what was supposed to be a short little thing turned out to be an Essay. I'm just procrastinating. I've been doing this the entire day today. First this morning (procrastinate going out and getting things done. instead, i slept for another 3 hours after our morning lecture), then this evening (i planned to finish my pretutorial prep by today. Progress so far?- nil.), then Now. i don't know why. procrastinate going to Sleep?? WHO does that?? its not like im doing something very exciting. I'm just crapping on my blog.

Laurane- time for you to sleep. OR you'll have big trouble waking up tomorrow. You need to go to uni to print notes. SPeaking of which, you don't even know what class you have tomorrow, or whether you HAVE notes to print. You spent 2 hours at uni this evening not getting ANY pharm done, and on top of that, you didnt even look up what notes there are to print if there is any.
great.
okokok. Done. Over. Out. GO SLEEP.

What a beautiful day...

Thank God the Sun came out and it was Warm!!! but only for the Carnival! I came to campus a few minutes ago and it was drizzling again. Amazing. If there is really a 'higher power', he was watching over us today. :)

Things ran semi-smoothly (the first half was a bit of a bumpy ride...) but apart from that- perfect.

Food was good, turnout was good.

Had lots of fun and that's all it's about.

:)

However, I managed to get about 3 bruises from falling over the thing that holds up the tent though... they're even bigger than the paintball bruises (which turned out to not hurt much at all... although it left a mark for a few days- im sure one of them hasnt completely recovered yet)

Sorry no pictures. I was too lazy to carry around my camera...

What A Day

I was Amused
I was Frustrated
I was Excited
I was Exhausted... and much more.

I wanted to go through what I did today, but I realised it would probably end up being a rather Boring story.

So I'll just skip the boring bits and talk about stuff that amused me. :)

Today at the full rehearsal, a complete stranger walked up to me, looked at my shoes and said- "You have Ketupat on your shoes."
I thought he talked to the wrong person then i realised he was really talking to me! He said if i had used 2 green laces instead of 1 white and 1 green it would REALLY look like a Ketupat...
Haha :)
I told myself to remember what this guy looked like, cuz i never asked him his name. I was a bit thrown back by the sudden remark. So i just talked to him a bit about the ketupat shoes then went off and did what i had to do. But directly after that i turned around again and i could NO LONGER RECOGNISE him. Weird. Maybe he was a fragment of my imgination. I mean, you never know... It was a room full of people, I was half asleep, and after that conversation i dont remember what he looked like....


Then at work today i finally learnt how to handle the Specialties board! After being at work for so long, it was finally time for me to learn something new... it was starting to get boring. Not saying that i Enjoy doing specialties though. It's quite horrible. There's so many things to handle at one time you just go insane... And its those people who are on Specs that tend to get shouted at most because people ahve to wait longest for their stuff... :S But it was quite fun since i was working at a pretty quiet time of the night and i could actually learn things properly without having peopl randomly Barging in offering help and confusing everything...

Then also at work today my colleague said i looked like Barbie Doll. NO IDEA where the hell that came from but he said the shift manager said thats what i looked like. I'm confused. I was a confused person today at work beacause of the new thing, and I'm half dead because i had about 5 hours sleep last night and a long day, and I've never been fatter in my entire life than I am now (ironically, THIS is the time I have to take part in a fashion show. OMG).
So where the 'barbie doll' idea came in, i have no idea. O wait, I can think of One thing that may link me to a barbie doll today at work- dumb 'blond'.
ok. so I'm not blonde. But i was definitely looking a bit like a lost cat sometimes...

Finally... when I was going home after work, a couple of girls were trying to get into the apartment. their friend lives here. So they were outside trying to press the right code to open the door and i was behing them frantically digging through my bag cuz i couldnt find my keys... then i Finally found my keys and opened the door for them (the code thing still didnt work) and i found out their friend lives on my floor so I let them in and up the lift and their friend came out to the lift area and was like- ooh how did you guys come up? and they replied her "there was this LADY who lives here" LADY!??! i'm still a girl... did i look that old?? :(

for optus users... you know what this is

I decided to try my luck... so when the prize thing was flipping between different prizes, i pressed 'PrtSc'
WAaah!!!! If Only....
In actual fact, when it finally stopped flipping, I ended up with 40 free texts. Which isn't that bad. i'm not complaining! (definitely better than getting 10 txts... or even worse, a silly wall paper that I can't even use)
But still... I'd rather get the phone...
On another note... the darn Doritos should not have been at Alwyn's place last night. I headed to woolies and bought myself a pack and now I'm um... (as my mum calls it) pigging.
