wahahha. stop staring at me. i know the lowest temperature over here is still like 25 degrees celcius. but hey, compared to 31 degress it’s heaven ok?! yeah anyway it’s still cold enough to sit in a room without any aircon or fan. and cold enough to shiver after a shower. but i wish there’s winter in singapore. or typhoon rains and such. ok i don’t like the destruction they bring about, but such weather is beautiful too! not to say more interesting and exciting than summer 300 days in a year and rainy days in the remaining 65 days.
yay. am going for a weekend getaway on 14th nov. which is in between the exam period. lol. ok, ok stop nagging! i have a 13 day break before my last paper that’s only 50% of the final grade ok?! nag nag nag.
short entries are hip nowadays. why? cos exams are coming soon. and nobody is so damn free to type 5000 word posts online!
yeah, i shall get back to accounting II.
wah lau, i just realised yesterday that maintenance is spelled maintenance! wahahaha! i always thought it’s spelled as maintainence!! which means that all these years i’ve been spelling it wrongly and nobody told me! and when i type my reports and stuff on microsoft word i’ve always thought it’s the american vs british spelling thing, and i’ve never failed to curse the spell check each time (cos i DID switch it to british english!) and the wanna-be-the-know-all americans who caused all these trouble. and of course i’ve always thought i’m right, since i’m usually am! lol.
reminds me of an incident in jc days when madame gp discovered after 20+ years of her life that tomorrow is not spelled tommorrow!
oh well. never mind, it’s never too late.
someone kick my ass and tell me to start studying!
i need to study. and what am i doing? i don’t know. sitting around, pretending to be busy. ughhhh. exams, exams, exams!! 4th nov! and what have i done?! NOTHING! i haven’t even cleared a single accounting tutorial! total of 12!
i am so screwed.
but i guess everybody else i just as screwed. all my friends have endless quizzes, projects, assignments, presentations and what not. sigh. school’s crazy this semester. itz a saddening sight when i log onto msn and find that EVERYONE who’s online is either busy or away. irritating. i can’t stand it when i can’t find people to irritate. but yday was a very satisfying day. managed to irritate moon with my marketing plans for toilet paper and irritate fy, jn and ah gong with my non-stop yakking.
yay. i have no idea why i’m so crazily obessesed with irritating people. maybe it’s in me.
tomorrow’s gonna be another irritating day. irritating for me, cos there’s a big presentation tomorrow and chances are, i’m gonna screw it up again. and there’s an accounting question to present in tomorrow’s tutorial class, and i haven’t figured out the difference between activity-based costing and the other costing methods. sigh.
and because of the presentation tomorrow, i’ll be in a long sleeve shirt, pants and heels. which means i gotta attend the following 2 tutorial classes in those clothes. 6 hours in all. which decrees that i’ll be in a foul mood tomorrow. and with all the screw-ups, i’ll have the tendency to start irritating people again.
ok, but at least tomorrow’s the last presentation for the semester. last assignment and what not.
after that i can most probable concentrate on studying le. if i can convince and coax myself to start.
wheeeeeeeeeeee!
just heard mayday’s new song preview on the internet, and it sounds good! better than their previous album, i would say. they’re back to band sounds, which i think is better. and it seems that this album will be less commercialised than the previous. good. good.
sigh. but still, exams are coming soon. to my horror, most people will have about 1 week to study before the exams, but i don’t! ok maybe some others are worse off than me since they start on 2nd nov, but but but NO TIME! NO TIME! damn. i haven’t even done a single accounting tutorial. out of twelve. i am so screwed.
ugh. must remember to study. must remember to study. must remember to study.
i’m feeling stressed.
not because of school, but because of expectations. ok, maybe it’s partly due to school that all these expectations arose. it’s just that my team mates got quite-high expectations of me now and i’ve done my best!! no more breakthroughs! hard to maintain the high standard!
it’s really getting to me. i know that i can’t keep up to these expectations everytime i work on a project, and i’m giving myself excuses… don’t feel like working one weekends, don’t have the energy anymore, don’t feel like doing it…….all these excuses are getting on my own nerves.
damn. sometimes it’s better to slack and keep your standards low.
i don’t really have anything much to say,
i just feel like typing a post in orange.
why? cos orange is a nice colour.
speaking of orange,
i was at the popular bookstore this afternoon with a friend since i was relatively free.
while browsing, i came across this organiser for the year 2005.
its covers are striped, the kind which i like.
comes in orange, blue, green and pink.
that’s not the important point.
the important point is that i liked it very much, and it costs $15 for the bigger version.
and i’m proud to declare that i haven’t bought it. yet.
yes, i’ll eventually buy it some day when i feel rich and desperate for an organiser,
but since i’m extremely broke recently and i’m actually living off my family, i shall not behave like a spoilt spendthrift. i think i’m becoming more sensible. lol.
some habits are hard to correct though.
what’s more, i gotta save up for the upcoming mayday album and concert, remember?
so i shall slog and save.
slog and save.
slog and save.
stupid mayday.
lol. lol. yesh, it’s all their fault!
for that i shall curse them to eternal slavery for rock music!
yay! win-win situation. i get to curse somebody to vent my angers and they don’t suffer very much.
see? i’m such a considerate person. even when i curse people i make sure it’s a reasonable curse. just like king in the book the little prince.
digressing again, i think the little prince is a great book. even though i discovered it only about 2 years ago. i regret not having read it earlier. maybe if i did i wouldn’t have understood it then. but yes, the little prince is a great book indeed. lotsa food for thought. just like mister god, this is anna. equally brain-blasting. the first time i read these two books, i just sat there in shock and awe.
i’m living in confusion between punching “enter” after every fullstop or comma and going on and on and on so my text appears in paragraphs. the sentence form is for easy reading i guess, but i like the look of paragraphs better. too many report writing recently.
by the way, i made up my mind. not about the enter or not thingy.
i’m talking about favours. from now on, when people ask me for little favours, i shall demand that they return my favour by putting a mayday picture on display on their msn. lol. it worked on the libya president even though i was just kidding her. well, well. but talking to people who have mayday pictures as their profile pictures really makes me feel happier. like….hey! we all love mayday!
ok, enough of my nonsense.
did you notice that i wanted all the text to be orange and now it’s not?
cos the blogger thingy is a bit dumb lah and i thought i’ll just make everything orange after i finish blabbering, but now i’ve decided that orange really clashes with the design of my blog.
*hint hint*
it’s time to change the design of my blog soon.
maybe. if i can really bear to change this.
for a change,
I’M EXTREMELY CONTENTED!
yes, i am!
to show my contentment i’ve used purplish pink!
because mayday’s new album’s coming out in early nov!
new album name’s “god’s children are dancing” a.k.a “shen de hai zi zai tiao wu“
and the first new song will be heard on the radio next week.
wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
something to see me through the exam period.
why would i complain about life?
LIFE’S BEAUTIFUL!
i’m officially crossed out by the school authorities.
to take a minor in communication studies.
GONE! GONE!
the option’s gone!
just because of my laziness and stupidity during my first inter-semestral session.
wtf.
and to think that the FAQ section in the school website stated very very clearly that
i can retake a module ten million times if i want to until i get a minimum of B to obtain the minor.
bloody liars.
i CAN’T retake it!
not even once!
ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
ok, ok.
i know it isn’t really the school’s fault.
at least they were nice enough to return my call and talk to me nicely.
it’s my own stupid fault for being so bloody lazy.
but hey, there was a false sense of security what…..
sigh.
another regret added to the already-long list of grievances.
please don’t remind me of the minor anymore, people.
i’ll give 3 days time to ask all the questions you want and break my heart till you are satisfied.
beyond this period, if anybody asks me anything about my plans to take up a minor again,
i swear i’ll clobber the person so hard on the head
he or she will forget to put toothpaste on a toothbrush before brushing.
grief aside (gosh, i’m getting dramatic)
i’m gonna start drafting an email asking for employment.
lol.
yeah, a bit early, considering that lessons haven’t even ended, let alone exams.
but hey, the early bird catches the worm.
and i just chatted with 2 of my ex-colleagues today over a free cup of tea,
and they were telling me the admin side is in a total mess,
thanks to the moving of the office.
mess = work
big big mess = lots of work
however, big big mess also equates to grumpy admin head.
so i shall start drafting a friendly email (guanxi! guanxi!)
which is short and sweet (so it doesn’t waste her time)
and offer my services (so i can help them clean up the mess)
and this tactfully phrased email has to be sent at a strategic time,
since these few days will be the worst, they’ve just moved in these few days.
so everyone will be in a bad mood and ignore my helpless email.
see? job-seeking is so tricky nowadays.
but if i manage to get $7.50/hr, it’s worth the trouble.
plus the possible 1.5 times OT pay.
i only work my brains for certain reasons.
now that i’m done surfing around trying to find out what other general electives i can take up next semester,
i discovered that with a grade D for CS100, i cannot even take the modules i wanted, like desktop publishing and simliar stuff.
wtf.
can’t do a minor.
can’t take up the modules for fun.
now i’m really depressed and pissed.
and next semester there’s nothing i’m interested in!
which means either i take it or leave it!
leave the ges to clear in the later semesters and i don’t have a million and one semesters left to clear my ges!
WHAT THE HELL?!
is this part of the plan to let us have fun while learning?!
what kind of screwed up system is this?!
the whole thing doesn’t work!
why can’t i be allowed to retake the bloody module!?
if they don’t want to let us retake they should have told us earlier in the first place!
then why bother giving us the wrong information?!
and i swear that the minimum B grade for some modules weren’t there a few semesters ago.
can the school stop being so fucking capricious?!
yes, its more of my fault than theirs.
but i’m totally pissed.
i don’t ever wanna talk about this issue anymore.
case closed.
forever.
aiyah i got so excited about school i forgot abt my haricut
yes i got a haircut again!
maybe i shouldn’t use the word ‘again’, since the last haircut i had was three looong months ago.
and my hair have grown about more than 1 cm every month
which horrified my hairstylist.
she was amused by the growth rate of the dead cells on my head.
somehow i think i look pretty stupid with my new haircut.
wahahah. got a fringe still.
itz a short fringe some more.
but surprisingly my hair has been pretty well-behaved for the past 2 days.
with its length (the shortest about an inch) it should be standing up, spiky style.
but they’re actually making me look like some guai kid with a neat fringe.
i can’t imagine the look of my classmates when my friends and i turn up for class on monday.
cos the 3 of us went for haircuts together.
and came out with bangs and fringes.
gosh, i think itz kinda comical.
i’m running out of things to say.
why?
cos nothing interesting ever happens to me anymore.
why?
cos i have no time to kaypoh or slack or walk walk around anymore.
why?
why?
why?
i can come up with never-ending questions and answers.
this is called the 3-year-old game.
which i learnt about in bm212, a marketing course.
why?
why?
why?
ok lemme catch a breather before i get down to work again!
looking forward to the hols, whether i’m taking an inter semester or working.
and if i’m working, back to the previous place or a new environment.
well, well.
i need money.
but i need to clear my ges soon.
so i won’t die in my third year while all my friends around me can slack and concentrate on their final year projects.
enough about school.
phew.
tired.
FED UP!!!!!!
if i don’t balance the bloody balance sheet by tomorrow,
i’m doomed!
