frustrations and funs you can find in the uni

You Are Lightning

Beautiful yet dangerous People will stop and watch you when you appear Even though you're capable of random violence You are best known for: your power Your dominant state: performing

What Type of Weather Are You?

Yes.... i'm capable of random violence..... especially when i'm so frustrated.... i'm suppose to hand in a literature review for my mass media and society assignment.... but i'm so stuck.... i'm suppose to pick out the main points and list them out using my own words.... but the problem is... i cant use my own words... my words are actually the same as the ones in the passage, what a coincidence!! (not!)... i cant think of anyy way to rewrite them.... i have been using too much direct-quotes already..... ish.... how am i going to hand in this thing tomorrow????!!!!

Note: its 31 of january now.... i forgot to click the publish button yesterday and my computer ditched me off my connection.... luckily there's the auto-save function in blogger.... saved my work...

now... back to blogging.... i have handed in my literature review thingy.... i did more than it was required.... all the extra work.... its actually very very simple... just that the tutor did not explain how its supposed to be done.... the whole bc3 rushed to the computer lab right after the mass media tutorial class... the lab is conquered by us.... everyone has something to edit about their literature review... at least i'm not the only one who did a lot of extra work....

during advertising tutorial today.... we were require to propose a new product and convince our tutor and classmates to buy them.... our group proposed a 2 in 1 flat heels... which you can turn it into flats or heels depending on your mood... the tutor was quite impressed with our draft of the product and even said that he will send it in for competition..... woo-hooo!!!!! note:the picture will also be uploaded later since the photo is not with me.... and then... there's another tutorial activity that we have to prepare during the next tutorial.... we were to divide into 3 groups and propose a coffee shop business... one targeting students, another targetng exclusive, and the last one targeting the older citizens.... there will be 3 observer in the activity as the rest will have to debate along about their coffee shop's proposal.... i can say that i was kinda lucky to be picked by the tutor to be the observer.... then i'll have one thing less to do... but however i'll still have to study the advertising principles in order to observe the group..... i can't believe that the tutor actually know my name as he was always have the trouble of remembering names... especially mine is not a common name that will automatically come out from your mouth... i thought he will pick marc, stephanie, kevin... as everybody remembers their names..... heee....

its our lab session today.... we had tons of fun!!!! playing around with the equipments... acting as DJs... being drama queens.... note:pictures will be uploaded later... since i dont have them too with me... we recorded a few short situation dramas from our own creation... being as dramatic as possible... we saved those but i choose not to reveal them here.... its embarassing.....

gaining weight for the new year????

Here am i munching along happily with me snack of cheese and biscuits.... without(or maybe i do??) knowing how much it will affect my weight and figure...
ish.... everybody is trying so hard to keep themselves as slim as possible for the chinese new year and here i am muching along snacks when its not even mealtime.... how am i suppose to be slim????
i have been eating non stop nowadays.... especially when uni started.... i come home almost everyday with a grumbling stomach no matter how much i ate for lunch that day.... maybe that's because i come home for lunch twice a week and have lunch before going to school once a week... so overall i'll only be eating lunch at school for 2 days.... so i always come home with a hungry stomach not only for lunch but even when i already had lunch..... ish....
i have not check my weight lately.... actually i'm afraid i'll be too terrified... horrified... petrified... by my sudden weight gain.....
how????
i just can't stand being hungry.... its not comfortable being hungry..... so i'll just have to satisfy my appetite......
whoosh.....
i don't really have time for exercising now.... assignments and tutorial activities and presentations are piling up now... gotta work on it.... *boink... you have time to blog about your stupid weight and eating issues but you don't have time to exercise??!!!!
okok... i admit its an excuse..... i'm just lazy..... too lazy to move my lazy bum around to work out and exercise....
failure........

i'm bored....

ish....
here i am again in the internet lab waiting for my class.....
my doesn't start until 2.... and i have waiting for 2 1/2 hours now.....
whoosh.....
at first i was planning to look up for the references for my assignments.... chinese new year.... lullaby.... meditation music...... datuk gong..... etc.....
however the results was not very satisfying as i have only found 1 book which somehow mentioned something about chinese new year in the middle of the book which is about a paragraph or so.... then i found a book all about meditation.... but its doesn't touch on the music that are used during meditation-ing...... and how about that..... 0 founds on the datuk gong topic.... ish.....
so... ok.... since i can't find anything in the school library then maybe i could try my luck with the mpsj hypermedia library..... i logged into their website searching links after links until i finally reached the hypermedia website and found that their opac system is not working due to "penambahbaikan"....
what the!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
honestly.... why do university assignments want book references???? excuse me.... its the techno-century now.... people use the internet more that they eat or sleep now.... however they claim that internet references are not reliable..... so book or hard copy references are compulsory.... besides they must have the mojority in your reference list..... ish ish ish......
i wanna go look for book reference but there are none to be found....
why are you treating me like this??????!!!!!!!

Can you actually believe that???!!

Can you actually believe that???!!!!
now i bet people will be asking....


"believe what wey????"


"what's the fuss la wei???"


"kecoh mengada...."



yup... by being the "kecoh-mengada" person.... i just can't believe i'm having the writer's block after i found my disc of fanfic backups within a stack of random cds last weekend....

what the!!!!


its such a waste as i had such great brilliant ideas in the past and just forgot about them completely.... just because i thought my memory was so good that i don't have to rely on my pen and paper jottings.... but it's my idea so i thought i could just remember them... they are original though.. fresh out from my mind.... how could i forget them so easily???!!!!


whoosh... its so frustrating when you got the mood, the time and the references (which is all the previous chapters)... ideas will just pack their bags and go off for a vacation or something.... then when they are back from god-knows-where they have been... i might either... don't have the time... the mood.. or even the materials to jot them down.....


why are you treating me like this???!!!


well... i will have to rely on my diary for the jotting-down business.... but i somehow don't feel comfortable letting people see my drafts as they are usually full of mistakes and unlogical scenes... i don't mind them seeing or reading the final post-ups but the rough copy??? its so embarassing letting people read your mistakes and asking about the out-of-the-box ideas (aka unlogical)... its the first day i bought my diary to school and "people" are passing it around jotting down their birthdays... ish.... (hehe... no offense "la"... just kidding)


i'm now thinking whether should i write my stories in cantonese characters or just translate my ideas to english..... writing in cantonese seems a little weird but its closer to my actual idea... while writing in english makes it ok to be posted into my fanfic blog but as you know my english.... "sucks"....


so now what????

here i am staring at the microsoft word documents i opened without a single word typed into it.... what can i say???!!! i'm a failure......


-its thaipusam tomorrow... and its a public holiday... means no class... yippie??? sigh.... means i have to replace my 2 lecture classes which were supposed to be held tomorrow.... which also means more saturday classes for me.... that is why i kinda hate holidays during the teaching/learning semester... however i don't mind them after the semester.... don't get me wrong-

LUCK is On the Way!!!!

You Had a Fantastic Year!

Compared to most years, last year was definitely great. Overall, you're living a much better life than you were twelve months ago. And nothing is a better mark of a good year. Here's to hoping next year is even better!

How Did Your Year Rate?

means i may have a great year ahead of me then.... yippie!!!

i just realised that i really don't have the habit of checking my emails and messages regularly in all places except those in my blogs.... i currently have more than 200 unread mails in my hotmail.... more than 400 unread mails in my yahoo account... bout 30 in my gmail... and more than 200 unread messages in my friendster message board.... ish.... its not that i dont like reading them but its just too many and it gets more everytime i see them.... judging how long i log in to my friendster account.... so people... if you have a message for me which requires an almost immediate response... please leave that message in any one of my blogs.... i'll be replying you right after i see them... but if its too long to leave them here... you can always leave me a short message here that you have a message/mail for me at which email account... then i'll straight away go check.... no biggie....

now... i have just found something that will brighten up my dull day.... i found backups!!!!!!

backups of my stories that i have wrote... however i dont remember doing those backups... but its there!!!! yay!!! i can update my fanfic blog and the uncontinued story in my yahoo kimo blog... yesh!!!!! my luck is getting better now.... hopefully it doesn't stop here.... and i'm starting new stories too.... i got my new 2008 diary... i'll be filling it with details of my stories here and there like what i have been doing last time... i realise that my diaries don't contain my story inspirations anymore since i started my uni life.... its time to retrace... i really like writing stories... in chinese or english(usually the translated version.. my first hand ideas are usually in chinese)....

back to my story-writing life.... fanfics... here i come!!!!

What the ****!!!

heyoo....
i'm back to battle against the spiderwebs around the corners of my blog...
oh gosh... i cant think of anything to write.... total blank-ness
ok... i'll just grumble about my unlucky-ness these few days...
let's start with yesterday.... all begins with cultural and religious studies.... the tutor wrote down all the assignment titles on the board... 7 of them... we(my assignment group members) were pondering around a certain "datuk gong" topic.... all of us were like... "what in the world in this "datuk gong" thing???"... "better not get that topic.."
we were all aiming to get the malay wedding procedure topic...
but!!!!!!!
when its time to draw lots.....
guess what????
look like this "datuk gong" guy really like us... as we got "datuk gong"... no further questions asked....
ok... this was still ok because i found an article about "datuk gong" and its quite informative as its complete with the references as well... so now we know what book to look for....
NEXT!!!
mass media and society.... another draw lots session about assignment topics.... there were 2 topics to choose (draw, to be accurate) from.... which is MUSIC genre.... and reality TV.... well... all 4 group members in my assignment group know nuts about music.... ya.. we do listen to music but we dont go into details about the genre and stuff... we just listen to what we like....
and guess what??? (you're right!!)
we've got MUSIC GENRE!!!!!!!
what the hell!!!!!!!
i know some of you love music.... and will be wondering why am i making such a big fuss for getting that topic because "music is nice ma..."
i agree music is nice... but the problem is.... i don't know any other thing about music besides the tadpoles on the 5 lined ladder.... how am i going to be able to differentiate the genres???!!! i dont even know how many genres are there to choose from..... help!!!!
just my luck as i'm the one who drawed both of the topics.... ish ish....
good luck charm... anyone????

yes... here i am back again...
i finally remembered what i was planning to write earlier....

i'm so sorry.....
just that stephanie and karlim wants to stick together so.... i thought you have been working with zy and gang before and you guys worked together great... so... i thought maybe you wouldn't mind joining them.. i'm so sorry....

... i forgot the main topic for this post... oh well...

Heeyoo!!! i'm back!!! i guess hp, rae and js are having fun in pyramid now... ish... i can't join them because i thought i have to send my sister to tuition because that's my mum's cooking time.... who knows.... the tuition starts next week... and i just got to know today... hahaha.... just my luck... i guess its just fate that i can't go for shopping trips because i will SPEND MONEY!!! ya... i'm near to broke-ness..... so if i joined them today to pyramid... the first stop is gonna be the atm machine as i only have bout rm2 in my purse... how pathetic....
anyway.... back to my original topic.... yikes... i forgot what's the main topic of the day!!!!!
ticky tocky tick tocky....
nevermind..
i'll just talk about others first....
about my classes then... anybody interested????
if not then just navigate away.... sorry....
hmm.... most of the classes have not really start yet due to its the first week of school and nobody is in mood of listening to lectures... so lecturers will usually give a brief introduction of the subject... explain the assessments and let us ask questions about ANYTHING....
i have gone through introduction to advertising.... english for mass communication....malaysia:cultural studies and religious practices.... and radio broadcasting.....
next up... mass media and society taught by our very "beloved" mr. benjamin....
i just realised that utar exchanged pendidikan moral that we were suppose to have this semester with next semester's introduction to advertising... no wonder i always thought there's something missing..... so that means my bm will have to wait till the next semester to be called out and used again..... i guess they are all enjoying their vacation for now.... preparing for the worst..... good luck!!
its a public holiday tomorrow and good thing i have no lectures tomorrow because if i do i'm bound to get replacements during odd hours...... thank god....

school....

You Are A Social Butterfly

You love your friends so much... You're motto is "the more, the merrier"! Making sure everyone's included is your mission And you always prefer a group of ten to a group of two

What Kind of Friend Are You?

How about that.... a social butterfly.... i didn't know that i could ever be a social butterfly...

yoho... it's the first day of school today... and the biggest problem which i have always feared has happened today.... no parking!!!! guess how far did i park????

its an almost 10 minutes walk distance.... how's that???? where do all these cars come from???? lucky for me... the weather isn't hot or else i'll might be cursing all the way.... ish....

well... i got my timetable for this semester and guess what.... it's a disaster!!! 1 of my classes actually end at 6.30pm... whoosh... thinking of the jam that occurs during that time has already driven me nuts.... and i have to go thru the same parking-search mission every monday because this is the only class i have.... 12pm - 2pm... well... at least i don't have any classes until 7pm like other tutorial groups... i'm grateful though!!!!! but the large breaks between classes are driving me crazy!!! on tuesday... i'm free from 12.30 - 5pm..... gosh!!!! that's 4 1/2 hours!!!! what am i suppose to do during that time??!!!!! there's 3 hour break on thursday too but i might still be able to kill off my time by eating slowly...... 4 1/2 hours!!!!

sigh.... i guess i'll just have to put up with it.... comforts self: its not that bad.... compare with others.... yeah... i'm ok......

p/s: happy birthday rachel!!!! (20 already!!!)

back to school "for me".....

The Recipe For Me

3 parts Pride 2 parts Uniqueness 1 part Talent Splash of Inspiration Finish off with whipped cream

What's the Recipe for Your Personality?

wow... i'm starting my second semester tomorrow.... although i already had 3 months of holidays... which sounds more than enough but however.... i'm still like any other normal student who is dreaded by hearing the word "back to school"....

however... i still have to pick up my very lazy body and set it off to school.... i don't know my whole timetable yet..... i just know that my class starts at 12 tomorrow... ish... that means its back to the parking space searching mission which i hate the most about going to school.... the biggest problem about utar is that it doesn't provide students parking space.... even when we are willing to pay for it..... students will have to reach the school area before 7.15a.m to get a sucured parking space... meaning that you can park there without worrying when the MBPJ people will be around issuing "saman"s.....

well.... that's school life then.... i'll have to start putting on sun-block in case i have to park far away from my school building and walk under the hot sun to attend classes.....

p/s: happy birthday to my lil bro!!!!

frustrations... orientations....

its back to school for most of the students today!!!! well... all the best in school!!! for me... my semester starts next week... so i'll have an extra of... lemme see.... 4 days to still hang around and do nothing.... hehe....

well... i'll just share a portion of what happened yesterday..... which was really unfair!!!!!! just because of stupid mr.m doesn't speak the same language as we do!!!!

it was the orientation day for january 2008 intake in UTAR.... well, i am one of the helpers there.... i was in charge of the so-called goodies and t-shirt....

firstly... before any of the registration business start... we'll have to count and make sure that the amount of everything (t-shirts and so-called goodies) matches with the so-called very high-tech system... ok... after counting.... everything matches... even though the number does not match the actual number written before but as mr.m says... the system is never wrong!!!!!!

fine.... we'll follow the super-duper-system if you say so.... then here comes registration..... our counter has 2 laptops while other counters have only 1... being the only counter who has 2 laptops... we ask mr.m whether should we use both at the same time..... and he said: if you have 2 computers, use 2.... so back to business... tick-tock tick-tock tick-tock....

registration has ended and it was really fast.... so mr.m told us to count the stuff and see whether it matches the amount in the super-duper-system.... since we have been using 2 computers, therefore both have different amount under the remaining stock column.... so we'll just have to do extra work by adding both together....

after a round of counting.... most of our stock have extras.... well, that's not very good but its better than having less.... while we were wondering how come there's extras in our stock.... mr.m came over to our counter and start doing something... he said he was editing the system so that it will match the amount... then he asked us again whether are we sure that all the amounts are correct..... we said yes... then he ask again.... "do you have 60 m-size shirts"... we were like... "no!!" the opening amount of m-size shirts is 63... there's no way that we just gave out 3 shirts!! commercial break:m size is a popular size!!! so we looked at his so called system and said... that this was the amount of one of the accounts.... there's another account stating the remaining of 50... meaning we gave out 16 shirts.... but did mr.m listen???? no!!!! he said you must follow the system!!! not by calculating in your own way..... what the??!!! we have 2 accounts opened so we'll have to take both accounts into calculation.... but mr.m will just not accept the fact that 2 accounts can carry different numbers.... he said something like the system is never wrong.... so there must be 60 shirts instead of the actual 47..... that means instead of having an extra of 10 shirts in the beginning.... we are now short of 3 shirts.... same goes with all other sizes... now we are lacked of everything.... even the files (so-called goodies) which were the most accurate because everybody took a file!!!

so now... we'll have to recount everything.... and explain why the number doesn't match the super-duper-system..... it isn't that hard to understand right??? we have 2 accounts open during the registration session so both accounts are dealing with different amount of students... in the end of the day... as 1 counter... we'll have to deduct from both accounts to come out with one correct figure of the remaining stock at our counter... commercial break: is it that hard to understand??? if you don't please leave a comment telling me which part you don't understand...

but mr.m just don't get it and got all pissed and frustrated about our numbers.... what is wrong with you anyway??!!! why can't you just listen and understand???!!!! it was so unfair!!!! we tried to find proof that we actually have more students at our counter than what the super-duper-system says.... so we count the temporary id cards... because we got 100 in the beginning so the remains will tell us how many students did we entertain.... and yes!!! we entertained 31 students!! not 18 like what the super-duper-system says.... but how could we get mr.m to listen... every helper there understands our situation and even helped us explain... but mr.m just doesn't speak the same language as we do.... he stood firm by saying the system is never wrong... ish ish ish.....

what the problem with you, mr.m??? you come here and throw a sentence which only you understand, leaving us with invisible question marks all over and expects us to do what is told??!! how the hell are we going to follow your orders if we just don't understand them in the first place???!!! tell me!!!
