Go GLUE it! seriously?!?!!??

I am a kind of person who takes care of the items which belong to me like it was worth more than my life.

I am a kind of person who is passionate about my interests.I’m a book worm and some of the books I read are best-sellers and they don’t come cheap.

I treat the books I read like God. When I buy a new book, I take the effort to wrap it up and make sure that when I’m reading it, I don’t open it too wide, and I use bookmarks because I don’t want the pages to get folded. Bottom line, I want my things to remain brand new as long as I can keep them that way.

I put in a lot of effort to maintain it in it’s pristine condition.

And when the “genius” lends it to another “genius” friend of his, it comes back with a chunk of its pages falling out of the binding and mind you, this only happens if you open the book BIG-BIG.

That book is an expensive book, if your genius friend destroys it, get me a new one. Yes, I’m those kind of control freaks who expect things to be just the same. I gave it to you in pristine condition, and I expect it back in pristine condition. If it’s not, MAKE IT perfect. When I say make it, I mean BUY ME A NEW ONE.

But NO! You had the guts to say to me “Go GLUE it”. The nerve you have!

If you are using someone else’s stuff, take care of it. I always take care of other ppl’s things when I’m using it. I always take care of it as if it was more valuable than any of my things.

This is not the first time this has happened to me.

Say whatever you want! I’m a person who likes to get mad over petty stuff. I’m a freak. Say it cause I don’t give a damn!

When I give you something of mine, I expect it back in the same condition. The part which pissed me off the most is DENYING that the book was damaged. I mean, if you told me that so-and-so did this to the book and you are sorry, I would not have made such a huge deal over this. In fact, if you admitted I won’t even want a new book!

But NO! You didn’t admit your mistake and ruined an expensive book which is hard to come by these days.

And so, OFFICIALLY, I am no longer giving anybody, any expensive books of mine, no matter who you are!

I love my books and if you think there is something wrong with that, fine! I never wanted to know what you thought of it to begin with. :)

Love,

hmmmm……

Defer no time, delays have dangerous ends.

William Shakespeare

I am suppose to be studying and yet here I am… I think Mr. Shakespeare’s words need some pondering upon…

Welcome to the end

Ladies & Gentlemen,

Welcome to the end of semester 4. In this semester we saw fun times and faced some hard times. At the end of the day, old bonds were reinforced while new ones were forged.

There were lessons learnt during the past 14 weeks, some changed the way we look at things while others just didn’t change anything.

In the past 14 weeks I have witnessed growth amongst the people around me. Some were towards the light side, and some crossed over to the dark side. I think this is “the” semester where most of us actually did some growing up. Realisation hit us and changed the way we look at things from now on.

However, there are those who never change. Day in, day out, they remain the same. Some people just remain selfish without realising that selfishness does not pay. And I know this for a fact based on experience and observation. All the people whom I have crossed paths with who were selfish, never got any good out of it.So why bother being selfish? The thing which has me bummed out is that, why do these people still have such a backward mindset? Hasn’t reality hit them yet?

If there is something which I will never understand, it is why people are just so selfish and kiasu? I can never understand that. I tried, but I just can’t understand it. I thought that when you mix around, people will lose this mentality, but I thought wrong. Some people just never change.

I honestly think that people like that are really sad people. You have been given the chance to change for the better and yet you don’t take it. People should realise that you have to be an opportunistic kind of person to actually move forward and make changes to yourself. Bur I guess some people just don’t realise this.

This is the 15th week of 2009 and I have learnt some valuable lessons in life which will change the way I see things from now on. Have you?

Love,

Let me welcome the 14th week with open arms!

13 weeks have passed, come tomorrow, I shall be in my 14th and final week of semester 4. The so called “killer” semester. It still feels like I just started the semester. It is hard to believe that 13 weeks has passed in a blink of an eye. So much has been done and yet it feels like nothing has been done. I guess that “done” feeling only hits you when the finals are over. Speaking of which I have exactly a month left before the finals and I have a feeling that this time around, the nightmare is gonna be worse than last semester.

I realised that I have a month left for my finals and I began having my “flash-back” moments. You know, me reminiscing about how all the study breaks have been so far, how I had sleepless nights memorising every last detail printed on the lecture notes. How I memorise something in my sleep only to realise it is not for today's exam but it was for last week’s paper. The nightmares I get where I’m outside the MPH and trying really hard to memorise something and it doesn’t go in AND I have to go sit for the exam! Days where I only get like 3 hours of sleep. My time has come to develop racoon eyes! Yay! Gosh, I actually kinda miss those stupid dreams of mine.

Well, I shan’t be too sad, the season for those nightmares are approaching fast and soon, I shall be experiencing them once again. :) Better start stocking up on the coffee.

How has the past 13 weeks been for me? I know that this semester I fell sick quite a number of times. But so far only took MC once. I don’t remember studying for anything but I remember going to the library a lot. I miss the Dispensing practical sessions for some weird unknown reason. I hated it when I was doing it but now I kinda miss it. Actually, I can’t really remember much about this semester, it is all very blurry. Like blending everything together into a mixture and it looks so…………..blended.

I dunno! This semester passed on very fast for me. I don’t think I actually “experienced” this semester. It was more like a survival semester.. where everyday you have to do something and once it is done you have to move on to the other thing and the other thing. It was so hectic that I don’t think I had the time to stop and really feel what was going on. I think this semester was so programmed, so………………….. structured. With very little room for flexibility. Oh well, I shall just walk through it like how the rest do it. I mean, we all will reach to some end point at some point, so what the hell, let’s get moving!

Cheers to the last week of semester 4 and hopefully they give us easy exam questions for our dearly beloved EOS. :D

Shop and Heal the Economy!

Ever since the portfolio submission, I have been rather relaxed and happy. I know we have to study but.......... I think we all deserve a break from the books.

I went to watch Confessions of a Shopaholic today, and it was fun! I think that it is a movie which all girls/women are able to connect to and a movie where guys will learn to understand why we love to shop. :)

After the movie I treated myself to some retail therapy and I spent ..............  ard 100 bucks on lunch and goods..what did I buy?? Well I walked into SaSa just for fun and ended up with mascara, eye lash curler and eye make-up remover( which I don't know why the lady made me buy since the mascara wasn't exactly waterproof). After that I went over to Axezzzz and they were having sales up to 70% so I got some accessories.. and then I went over to Marks & Spencer and bought more stuff...and well, lets just say I got myself some stuff which weren't even needed in the first place but what the hell? Let's just get them anyway.(I think I might have spent more than what was stated above)

Since the start of the year all I've hear was " The economy is bad, recession, bla bla bla.." and I never really understood why people were complaining abt the economy.. I mean, the British pound is now worth ard RM5 and isn't that a good thing?? I mean when I was doing my Alevels it was like RM7 or something.. and now its lower.. YaY! Stop complaining.

The only economy crisis ( mind u I know NOTHING abt the economy and am blindly speaking here) which I seem to notice is how the price of the groceries have increased which irked me. I mean, these are stuff which people buy to survive and they shouldn't increase the prices. I mean, if people are losing jobs, it means that they wont have money and increasing the price isn't helping much! My local supermarket here have replaced the famous brands with some never-heard-before brands. Which is also irritating because I want the things which I use to buy not some cheaper rip-off version of it. Now I have to go to major stores like Jusco to get my supply.

Here is an interesting fact which I discovered, the more u spend, the more money u are pumping into the economy to help re-build it. So what I'm saying is that if u go out and shop, u will help restore the economy and hopefully that will reduce the prices of my groceries! :)

I feel that I have done my part today in restoring the countries economy by spending blindly on stuff which I don't even need. You should too. So I urge u to go out there and throw your money around like there's no tomorrow and hopefully, we'll have a better economy state or whatever it is which I don't understand at all.
Anyway, moving on from something which I have no idea about to something which I have a teeny-weeny bit of understanding about, Earth Hour.

How many of us are really going to turn off the lights for an hour tomorrow? And can it actually make a difference? I mean, 1 hour once a a year..isn't that kinda SMALL??? How much can u save by doing it once a year? I am not convinced that it is actually gonna help stop global warming. If it was done once a WEEK, maybe yes, then it can make a difference, but ONE HOUR ONCE A YEAR???? I dunno.. I mean seriously????

I haven't decided if I'm gonna turn off my lights tomorrow in the name of saving the earth and look like a complete fool because I know my neighbours and everyone in my neighbourhood aren't gonna do it. So if you happen to be an earth hour supporter, please convince me to do it.

Love,

I am such an Addict

There are some things in life which we can life without and some which we just simply can't bear to part with. My abstinence from a certain habit of mine has gotten me yearning for it more and more. Yesterday, I gave in to the desire, cravings and yearnings. To finally get to feel that feeling which makes you lose all sense of reality, that feeling which dissolves the world around you, that feeling which makes you lose yourself complete and let your guard down.

Able to breathe in it's scent, feel the texture with your fingers, dying to get high. God save me. I have refrained from this habit for so long that I almost forgot how high I use to get from doing it. I am still high from yesterday, but I think that it is beginning to wear off now, and I NEED to get my fix. I just need to experience it again. The joy which it brings, only I will understand. I finally understand why smokers find it so hard to quit. Especially when temptation is all around you. When you intend on kicking off a habit, you should never surround yourself with temptation as it only makes it harder to stop the habit. It doesn't help when people actually encourage you to do it. When you are tempted to do it, a small part of your brain tells you "No", but then the person whom you are with says "OK". What am I to do?

Yesterday, after 4 weeks of abstinence, I went SHOPPING. OMG. I thought that I was about to go totally mad. The shops, the clothes, the shoes, the things which I could buy!!!! OH MY GOD. It was like as if I  died and went to heaven.

Allow me to list down the things which I bought:

1. A thai-silk baju kurung which I bought so that now my friends and I can "pakat-pakat" and wear the same thing to uni. LoL

2. A Bonita bag which I got because it was 70% less and the price was reduced from RM128 to RM38 something.

3. 3 for RM10 earrings and a ring for RM10 which matched the earrings.

Image016

4. A handphone bag which I thought was ugly at first but I bought it because it reminded me of my Grandma.( Not because she's ugly but because it looks old fashion and I thought it looked vintage but I don't think so anymore)

Image018

Since yesterday, I have had this longing feeling that I need to shop again because I did not get myself shoes. Every girl needs a collection of shoes. Plus, since there are sales, I should get my self more clothes. One can never have too much of clothes. I also feel like I didn't shop that much, and that I need to BUY more stuff. Even if I don't need it now, I might need it later. I should SHOP. I feel like I didn't buy anything yesterday, that what I bought was nothing compared to how I used to buy things like there was no tomorrow. I NEED TO SHOP.

Love,
