Happenings in HB3

Here's an update about college since I havent been blogging this week. College is really awesome so far. I'm starting to get used to the whole 3.30pm thing. I don't get headaches anymore, which is pretty good. Classes are all really fun but maybe it's because they haven't really started yet. Most teachers just did the basics. Just realised I have a lot of research to do for psychology and ESL.

We had freaky friday in psychology today. While we were in class discussing about our study group that
Miss Cheryl assigned us to do, a 'teacher' suddenly stormed in and asked for her physics textbook that Miss Cheryl accidentally took. She even slammed the door on her way out. My whole class was so quiet, shocked by the whole drama. And Miss Cheryl started asking what process took place and how was her reaction. Guess what? It was all a drama for us to learn those stuff. WAT THE! That was what freaky friday was all about. We still couldn't believe that it was fake. It seemed so real. All of us were gobsmacked! LOL

In maths, we have this graphic calculator which draws out the graph for us on its screen. We were all 'woaaah' when we saw the thing plotting on the calculator. Jakuns man! Haha! But it was so cool! And, Mr. Fong, our maths teacher gave us some titbits to munch on yesterday. You definitely do not have this in high school. :D

So much fun in classes this week. It's a waaaaay different thing from high school. Classes pass by like so fast, before you know it, the day is over. :)

Chinese New Year is just 5 days away and I'm so happy! Going back to dad's hometown in Melaka. Can eat my all time favourite abalone and sea cucumber :)
Definitely going for a late night movie with the cousins on the 1st day. Can't wait!

Shoe Shopping

Since college rules forbid us from wearing slippers and we have to wear closed up shoes during lab classes, I told my dad I need a pair of sneakers because my smart ass sister threw my Nikes in Egypt. She literally threw it, not left it behind. Somehow I have an excuse to buy a new pair also lah. :)

So, we went to 1U, the only place nearest to my house where I can find Studio R. Seriously, I saw one Adidas shoes. Really pretty and chio looking BUT it was RM250. I would really have gotten that but I was kinda doubtful cuz I don't want to spend so much on a pair of sneakers. Ended up buying the Reebok sneakers. I love it too. It was on sale of 30%, affordable price. :D

And then, I went to Forever21. I was supposed to be looking for another cardigan but the moment I laid my eyes on the booties, I was like GET IT! And, best part, it was only RM69. It's a steal! I was so happy trying on it, looking at the mirror. I fell in love with it right away. It was totally a good buy. Forever21 has a loooot of nice heels and boots etc, just that most of them are over RM120.

 Awesome day of shoe shopping. :D

Techincally the Starting of College

Just got back from college and phew, i am dead beat. It's tiring not because it was boring or anything but it was because classes last till 3.25pm. And, I'm still not used to it yet. But, honestly, time flies in classes. Before I know it, class already ended. Nothing much happened today other than introduction like 4 times. It's always the name, school and why I chose the subject. So far, all lecturer are friendly and nice except my chemistry lecturer who is kinda strict and looks stern.

During psychology class, we had to split into groups of 2 and get tangled by holding our friends' hands who were standing opposite. Somehow, the other group could get untangled and ours just couldn't. But, it was fun. Like we worked together and laughed. Slowly by slowly, everyone is friendly and not that shy including me. I like my class cuz everyone's so sporting, so outspoken.

Sat next to Racheal and Sara in class. Friendly people, nice to be with. The lecturers made jokes and we had fun. Good impression of college so far. :)

Orientation Day

Exhausting yet fun. Talks were as usual boring but the activities during ice breaking session was kinda fun and interesting. Got my timetable today and my gosh, my classes end at 3.25pm everyday except friday at 2.25pm. Classes start at 8.30am everyday. 6 hours of class everyday and an hour break. It'll be exhausting and tiring for the first few weeks i guess. And worst, this is not our fixed timetable. Classes will end at 4.30pm almost everyday after the march intake. Yikes!

So far today was okay. Met a few friends. Gotten to know my mentor and my classmates. And wow, I know more people than I thought in Hartamas campus. I walk somewhere and I see someone I know. It's quite a small campus but yet, you could get lost in there like how I almost got lost today.

I really hope classes are okay. I still can't imagine reaching home at 4pm everyday. I'll be exhausted, tired, moody etc. And, great, I can't eat lunch at home since my classes all end so late :(

Preparation for College and CNY

As i tweeted earlier on, I went to KLCC, 1u and Sunway pyramid for some shopping. Ahh, I think it's cuz of my period, I don't have the mood to shop. I went to all 3 places and only got myself a pair of orangey-red flats. That flats is meant to be worn during chinese new year. Mum said I got too many flats/heels/shoes but come on la, I need to wear all those to college now, how can it be enough? Ugh, geram! But, I got no mood to get any tops or shorts now. :(

College is starting in 3 days. DANG! I'm not really prepared yet. I have no idea what's it gona be like. And, oh my, college books are expensive! I only found second hand for maths. So, I think I would be buying new ones for my bio, chem and psychology. The price already killed me but what choice do I have? Lunch everyday at Hartamas will be oh my god! I'm so going broke if I eat out 5 days in a row. I pray some days, my classes end early, so that I can at least have lunch at home like 2 outa 5 days.

I can't wait for chinese new year. I just realised I have way to many pink and red tops this year. Sorry lah but it's just too cute to resist. And wow, I bought this turqoise pants from Jaspal and I'm so eager to wear it but i have no idea what to match with cuz it seems that I didn't buy any neutral coloured tops for CNY this year. Oh well, let's see how i will play mix and match.

A Day with Them

Went to Mandy's house with Pui Li, Jon and Kim. Yen Thin was supposed to go but seems like she was unwell. So why did we go there? To get some pretty things :)

Mandy went to Bangkok and bought like 50 over clothes. Ohmygosh that woman can shop! So she had some cheap cheap sale of her unused items which was hiding in her closet for god knows how long, to make space for her new clothes. And she posted up some pictures of things that were up for sale on facebook. I was in love with the messenger bag and the heart shaped ring INSTANTLY! And best part? She bought the stuff i got online, so i wouldnt bump into anyone having the same things.

I don't know where she bought her stuff but she sure has A LOT of clothes. Wow, when we went there. Her place was FILLED with clothes, dresses, bags, more clothes, accessories. I quickly grabbed the bag and the ring :)
I thougt hmm, maybe i could use the bag for college.

Puili got another bag as well and Kim bought 4 clothes. And i was pretty happy with my bag and the ring because many people wanted both of the items I bought. Too bad you guys, first come first serve :)

After that, all 4 of us girls plus Jon went for a steamboat at DPC. Jon and Kim wasn't too keen on steamboat but haha! They both said it was good after the meal. And Mandy has been persuading Kim for a steamboat session since Watefront opened for business. Surprsingly this time Kim went in with us.



Gota get more stuff for college :)

Same Old Weekends

I have been sleeping at 1am and waking up at 11am or so. I'm trying to cut this bad habit out before i start college. On Saturdays, i would usually follow my mum to KLCC for a mother-daughter shopping but yes, i overslept. Supposed to wake up at 8 but i woke up at 11 instead. But, she came back with a red london bus phone charm for me from Harrods. I dont know why, I just love london buses especially RED. I have a piggy bank in the form of a red london bus as well. :)

So, since i was home alone with my maid, i watched a cantonese tv series called 'A Great Way to Care' which my godmother borrowed me her DVD. It was aired quite long ago but i missed out quite a few episodes so i decided to watch it again. It's actually a story about psychologists and police working together to solve crimes and treating patients. I love the near-to-ending episodes :)
Watched it in 2 days

And, at night, I went shopping at 1u. Chinese new year decorations are already half way done. It's pretty. Had dinner at Daves. I miss Daves cuz I haven't been eating there since before I went Egypt. Their food are OMG, awesome and mouth-watering! SLURP!

Went to Forever21 to get a cardigan for college as you can freeze in Hartamas campus, no joke. I only got one which I'm practically gona have to wear everyday or not I'll really freeze. So, next round, I'm gona get another 2 more. Wearing the SAME cardigan everyday is just boring. And, i only got it for RM69, same price if you get on from Cotton On. I never really like Cotton On stuff and i feel that Forever21 has better quality.

Some of my friends are orientating in their colleges now. I can't wait for my turn. :) 

Much Anticipation

I look at my calendar on my study table everyday and i see this "19th Jan-orientation, don't be late :)". I tend to get really excited, I don't know why either, and I start to think wow, what are we actually supposed to bring there? I don't think people ever bring a backpack as heavy as the ones we brought to high school anymore right? In movies they hold their books in one hand and carry a handbag in another. Handbag to me is err, weird? Say tote bag okay lah, can still put your books in. 

During my more-than-an-hour talk with yen thin yesterday, we talked about the stuff which we would do in college as well as the things that we will bring. It was really crazy as we were like "what do people bring to college" and "do people actually bring ginormous pencil box like mine". It was fun at the same time cuz we are really excited about starting a whole new thing in college. Like not wearing uniforms anymore and better maintained toilets and better still, finally allowed to bring our phones to school.

So, I did something out of boredom, which is listing down stuff I would actually bring. I know it's weird like who plans so early but seriously, I'm rotting my butt off at home. I have mixed feelings about wanting to start college ASAP but still want to enjoy my holidays as much. Anyways, i think the major 5 things i would only bring is:

college books

my blackberry

a planner and a notebook

wallet

stationery

my planner
I bought this in support of the Malaysian Association For the Blind :)

We are also supposed to get out student ID and Taylor's shirt during orientation. I don't know about you guys but I'm starting to feel college will be fun, despite the stress that we're to face. Getting to meet new people while maintaining the bond with current friends, getting to feel a different environment, being able to wear comfy clothes everyday.

And i know you guys noticed that i blog almost everyday right now. It's because i love to share how i feel about things and since I'm so free, why not right?

College in 2 weeks

Taylor's Hartamas


Wow, college in 2 weeks. That was fast. I had registered for SAM course in Taylor's Hartamas a day before I flew to Egypt. And i chose Biology, Chemistry, Maths, ESL and Psychology. Why Psychology? First, it was the only combination that i can take if i didn't want Physics and second, I thought, why not? Something new right? Get to learn about one's behaviour, can understand why i often get moody etc.

I'm kinda excited but at the same time scared for college. I have seniors telling me college is the best part of studying and I'm like are you sure? College is like a new beginning where it determines what course you're to study for your future. So somehow you have to do really good to be able to further your studies. And since it's another new beginning, you have to start making new friends all over again. I have A LOT of my buddies and friends going to the same campus, some even taking the same course as me but still, we wont be in the same class due to the different combinations we took.

Lucky for me, i still have RACH who has been sitting beside me for the past 5 years in high school. Eventhough we cant be sitting next to each other anymore, we can at least still have lunch together. I still have the woman, YEN THIN. She dumped me for A levels. But, lunch together will be fine. And, i found out that my old buddy, TIJAN will also be going there for her studies. So excited to meet her back :)

I hope college will be like what my seniors said. SAM somehow is kinda tough and I'm taking science subjects, so you get the image. I cannot procrastinate like how I used to in high school. SAM is consistent work, no slacking kinda thing. So, for now, let's just hope I get to meet nice people in my class during orientation.

Rach and yenthin, i know you guys often read my blog. Remember our promise kay? Lunch together :)

My Lil Love

                                                          sleeping with his toy rat



Ace has grown into a fat cat from a small tiny kitten. If i'm not mistaken, he is about 9 months old already. After Marmaly's death, he's been a little lonely and seeks attention most of the time. And it's also because of Marmaly's death that we manjakan him more which is why he's more of a tame cat compared to kim's one.  And as you can see in the pictures above, he LOVES to sleep. He can sleep the whole day if no one disturbs him. He's just too adorable. :)

Times like this

I finally changed my layout again. Sorry, but i got so bored of the other one that i just needed to see something new on my screen.

Some things happened lately and it's getting to me. I'm a bit down and emotional these few days. I'm not gona tell the whole world why as it's personal but i'm sorry if i said something that hurt any of you guys whether by text or on msn. I haven't been myself lately and i really need some time to cool down. Thank you to a few of you who understood me and talked me out. I love you guys for being by me. :)

Other than that, i have been rotting at home. I don't know how some of you guys can tahan to start college in March. Other than outing with my buds, house chores and an upcoming sleepover at Ade's, i really DO NOT know what to do. I'm half the time online cuz i really am bored at home. People ask me to prepare for college but what IS there to prepare? I've already decided what course I'm gona take and what subjects. So, there's practically nothing else to do i guess.

I'm really looking forward to college life, meeting new people. I would miss all my friends now but we made a deal remember? Every friday night out ;)

It's the Beginning of Another Year

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

Yes it's 01.01.2011

Since it's the start of a new year, let's not look at or regret whatever happened the last year. Before the clock strike 12 yesterday, I managed to end 2010 in a nice way. I FINALLY, yes finally got my new phone! I'm so happy because i've been wanting a new phone so badly since loooong ago. So, i got myself a Blackberry Curve 9300 :)
2011 resolution number 2 is done

But before that, mummy got a text from Zara saying that Zara is on sale! I wasn't really in the mood for shopping cuz i was busy deciding which phone should i get. I only bought 2 piece so yeah whatever. I was dead tired when i got home and another surprise! Dad bought me a Toshiba laptop. I wanted PINK but my dad said it's unprofessional and he got me white. Oh well, white is not that bad either.

At night, my whole gang of buddies except Pui Li who was in Serdang, went to DPC for countdown. Man, that place was packed with people. We were all gathered at the kid's playground and oh god, they brought foam cans and yes, i got SPRAYED by yen thin and shahmim. I freaking got tricked by them and Suren HAD to grab hold of me so they could spray more. Tsk

We counted down, watched fireworks which were practically right above our heads and went to Ade's place at Nadia for a Taboo game. That was the end of the year and i had fun eventhough some unwanted stuff happened. Rach and yenthin should know what.

Have a great year ahead everyone!
Lots of love :)
