This is me
When I'd become the Simpsons

Yesterday attended Garett's wedding banquet at Holiday Inn

Most of my ex-colleagues were there
So we did a bit of catching up

I'm glad that most of them still remember me
Which is a good sign
Meaning that I left them an impression
& are curious what I'm doing now
They were all so surprised to hear that I'm not working
Kept saying I good life

Haha

The wedding started at 830pm

After a while
The food were served
Prior to that
There was some entertainment for us
A dancing chef with super big belly!
Looks adorable!
But cant capture his full face & body coz he kept dancing around
After the newly wed's 2nd march, it's them YAM SENG time
The couple with us

Ah
Keep attending wedding banquet
I also kept wondering how mine will look like...

I'd never sneezed so much
The painting & packing of my room
*faint*

But nonetheless
I'd finished painting my room!~~

My room before painting
As messy as ever
DarDar painting
While I watched DarDar paint the room...
He crowned me lazy bum...=(

Actually not loh..
I wanna paint he dont let me paint
So I dont paint he said I lazy
Idiot

Room in transition
&...

TADA!

Nice or notttt??~~~

Ok la
Not bad
My first attempt to paint the room

DarDar painted the main wall
While I do the corners

We used the new ICI Dulux Light & Spacious
Not bad
I was very amazed by it coz it is water-based
So any spill can be easily wiped off using wet sponge
& it doesnt smell
In fact, I dont think I smell anything at all!
Good good
Though a bit costly of $58
But I think it's a worth
At least my room now looks indeed bigger
=D

I think I'm getting kinda stress here

I haven really work on anything on my research project
& it's already Feb soon
Tides comes in every fornight
Which only gives me 2 chances every month

Prof was really really 'see me very up'
She told her class the one of my proposed topic of my research project
& during one of the core modules
Her students said:"Oh, so you're the one who will be doing the heartbeat thing?"

I went 'yeah' softly

O_o

I scare that if I cant produce that kinda work she expects
I'm gonna be real dead
& damn shameful about it

& damnit
Quick gimme my research permit!

With perseverance, one reaps success

I am very happy for Michelle
She had finally had her dream come true

I still remember during our days
She was pretty playful and was always worrying about her grades
But me & buddy kept encouraging her to study
& in the end
She got a grade she could never expect

It is really pleasant to see someone succeed
The tears of joy must be contagious

But when it comes to me
Success is nowhere near
When it hits on me
Timing isnt right

Anyway
I wish Michelle all her best

Gambatte, Michi-chan!

White embarkation card temporarily not needed for travel into M'sia

Wow
Sounds great to me

But
What should I do with the 30+ pieces of the disembarkment card that are lying in my car?

Recycle?

Went Chek Jawa for my field observation on Saturday
Headed out together with Prof

I'm very glad that Prof & I 'click'
Maybe coz both of us loves field trip
& that both of us are doing the same species that we both love

The weather was nice
Sunny & bright
With a spread of clouds at time
Sea breeze was cool
Munching my sandwich looking out at the sea is totally heavenly

I spent 2 plus hours under the sun
Discussing which rock that I'll be focusing
What kind of experiments will I be working
Understand what species are there
How they're termed so I could do the hypothesis

Not that bad

When we're back mainland island
I still went fishing with DarDar & Michelle
Who were waiting for me while I'm off in the rural

When we reached home
We were burnt
Yah, so much for the sun

I headed to Siti's wedding at night
First time attending malay wedding
Food ok la
But DarDar said very nice
Maybe I dono how to appreciate herbs & spices

Siti was gorgeous
& she looks really happy
I wonder if my banquet will be grand too

Sigh
This Prof D ah...
Donno got read my email one or not
I emailed him so many times never reply me
& I'm to help him at his lesson this Friday!
Haven brief me what to do too...
Shit
Reply me please please please please please

I had this Phad Thai in the afternoon
& a carrot cake covered with chilli for dinner
Now my stomach is burning
& I DONT FEEL GOOD!

I think I'm gonna faint soon
x_X

Finally
I'm laying my fingers to do my Materials & Methods (& blogging)

As I stood up from the floor to take a rest
I realised I'd messed the whole living room with my journal articles

BWHAHAHAHAHA

Dork.

I am not focusing AGAIN!

I had tried to complete my Materials & Methods for 2 out of 6 experiements that I will have to work on
& I'd spent 4 hours thinking about it
By 1am
I was already drop-dead tired
Adding on to a 3 hrs lecture before that

Now
As I have my laptop on
Ready to continue
National Geographic Channel is showing 'Dive into Tiger Central'
A documentary on tiger sharks

Ok I watched

Then it followed with 'Norway's Hidden places'
& they're introducing Norway's underwater world at a gorge

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Temptation of the beautiful abyssal

Why am I such a bitch when it comes to diving?
Why can I not start my work when my TV has thousands of fishes swimming in it?

*sob sob*

My physiology lecture tonight was almost hell

Biochemistry is something I have NOT touched for 6 years
& now I have to learn all those synthesis & formation
Molecules, ions & whatever are all appearing

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh~
*plucks hair*

As I was trying to understand the general theory behind it
The classmate beside me kept asking me questions
I also 'half bucket of water'
How to explain to her worrrrrrrrrrrrrr~

Unlike my 'Conservation & Management' lecture which I already had background in it

But I cant drop my Physiology coz my research topic involves this
Bleahhhhhhhhh

So!
I just have to study hard!

STRESSED

Isaac pee-ed on me
Buy 4D?

I hate people who said things that are not true
This people are worse than liars
At least the guilt of lying still remains in the liars
However
Those people push guilt to innocents, getting scapegoats for their lies

In chinese, there's an idiom
'Lie with open eyes'
(Zheng da yan jing shuo xia hua)

I have to defend myself
I dont like people putting unneccessary false statements on me
I dont like to be scapegoats for something which I am innocent of

On that day of debate
I shall end my job

Wah
Happening worrrr

I just came back from supper
Witnessed a fight at the coffeeshop
Young vs Old

Old man said something stupid that offended the young guy
& the young guy not happy & asked if he wanna fight
Old man stupidly agreed

Then flying chairs, flying helmet, flying glass bottles, flying utensils

& the old man got stabbed at his face by a fork

But the old man didnt retaliate much
He just let the young man fight

What a scene

Sometimes I hate DarDar very much
But sometimes I also adore him very much

Lately
He hasnt been abandoning me for his activities
(& I hope it stays this way forever)
& spent time with me
So I brought him to this cafe for a little surprise
Sizzling hot-plate brownie!
Read the review & many thumbs-up
So I ordered without hesitation for him


He loves it!
So do I, even I dont really like dessert
The brownie is soft & ice-cream is smooth
Really worth a try

& today
While I was window-shopping at Cineleisure while DarDar went for his interview
I bought this little piglet for him
Very cute right?

When I saw it at the shop
I laughed out loud
Coz it looks so much like DarDar

Luckily there's no one beside me
If not they think I crazy

I havent really got a name for the piglet
& it's so fun fooling it around with DarDar
coz it walks on 2 legs!

>_<

I am very very very excited!

ADEX 2008 is back in April!

Cant wait to go diving again!

I just cant get it out of my head

I'm fully traumatised

First day of school
Full of registration
& staffs are stupid

When I went to collect my student pass
Everyone was busy
So I just stood there waiting for assistance
One of the staffs saw me
Didnt greet me
But walked towards my direction

I thought she was walking to the door
Which is just behind me

& then she stopped next to me
Asked me what I want

I guess she could have greet me & stopped at the counter before me

Prof introduced me to most of the other professors
Whom I would be assisting them during their practicals & tutorials

I then went the library to register my account
& then to the computer lab
At the service counter
The lady at the computer lab asked me what I want
I said:"I was told to come here to register as I'm a new student"
She: So what do you want?"
I: "I donno what you wanna do coz I'm only told to come here for registration"

After some stupid conversation
She told me that I only need to login the system
Ok....
Then she said she helped me check
& she told me my information is not in the system

I:"Well, that's what I'm trying to tell you. I'm new here & I am to register"
She:" Oh.. seems like your particulars are not in our system. Dont worry, you're not the only one.."

Hur hur

Few hours later
Someone called
"Hello, this is the library calling. Just now your access got problem right?"
I:"Huh? The person at the library told me no problem ah.. but that from the computer lab got"
She:"Oh, someone called you to tell you no problem already?"
I:"No..no... no one called me. My library access is fine"
She:"So you can login now?"
I:"Wait wait... library & computer lab is 2 different access system... correct?"
She:"Yes"
I:"& you're calling from the computer lab, are you?"
She:"Yes yes.."

.............................................................

I REALLY WANNA SCREW HER HEAD!!

I left a voice message for the person who had been trying to contact me
I am still interested
But now I have another commitment

I told them I'd waited for them for 6 months
I told them I'm pursuing my Masters now
I told them to keep me in the loop until 2 years later
They agreed

I hope they promised

Next time
I have to write in 1 year in advance

There goes my only chance that I'd waited for 2 years
If I didnt decide to study & still slack my ass off
I could have take up the chance

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Then again
I hope it's not a bad choice that I'd made
Nor another dead-end path that I'll be taking

It will be a new route to bigger opportunity

Must tell myself
I'm en route success

So

It's a job application that I'd sent in May
In their reply
They said 'We will get back to you as soon as we can'

& I waited 6 months for it

I am only 2 days away from school

A job which I'd always dreamt about working

Now I'm gonna have another sleepless night again
