Hello all. I just came back from the border for some air-changing environment. Well,   it was filled with relaxing body & mind. and a spicy food that really tickle your senses. Your tongue that is. Apart from that, I can see other people, and culture struggles for life. It’s a sad fact but we got to fathom the situation they in and how they choose their own path. Some do for pleasure but others, they were not given a better chances to move forward in life.  I simply not degrade them though they hold one of the oldest profession in human history. And yet, they have been degraded as a low-ly societies for centuries. Dignity can be swapped for a bowl of rice. I totally salute them for having such a hard time and yet, survive from societies, war, economic pressure and so on. It’s the same thing I saw in Philippines. They were like a fish, where there were a room with a one side of the wall is covered with glasses so that people from the outside can see them, and choose which one to take back to the room. It’s sad to see them being treated like that.

Ok, on the other note,

I am officially 2 kg heavier. I hate that. I’m still 110+ lbs though but  the down side is that my waistline getting incapably unporpotional to my other part of the body. However, my boobs blossom! I love it, love it and I can’t get enough of holding it.

Dang I need to tone down this holiday. I need to. I WANT to. Going back to Core? Yes! See you all there. (p/s: and don’t forget to check out my boobs, before it shrinking again :P )

As for my masters programme, semester 1 is finally over. My land survey examination ended last monday. Not going to hope good things this semester. I’m just happy that i learn a lot this semester. Some things can not be defined in just getting an A. A skill indeed can not be graded. I am grateful that I learn something from it. The grade may not be as what I expected (pardon me, I’m always have that high-achiever attitude, blame it from my upbringing) but I’m going to get lose this semester. Doing the otherwise of ‘me’ should have been doing.

Though some of me can not be changed entirely, I’m opening new experience and practices to flow into me. I’m opening up myself to new experience. being late, being not on top and being.. laid back. Great. Lots more to learn & Im not complaining about it.

I will be flying back to KK for a month of holiday. I’m going back to work (no surprises there), taking up acad classes & if I’m lucky, I’m looking for a tutor to teach me how to render in watercolor. I need to soften my strokes & broaden my horizon in color mixing as well as building confidence in trying new things, skill of rendering, etc. So, anyone in KK willing to tutor me to watercolor? Please, please, I need to improve my skill on that before next semester start.

I can’t wait for new year 2010! I’m going to welcome it with smiles on my face & in the arms of. ahem. myself. :)

It’s been a good year (tune: It was a very good year- Frank Sinatra), I can’t wait for new things to come to my life.

p/s: I’m reading 8 minutes – Paolo Coelho

OK this is the third year (or forth) that I’m blogging about the toffee nut-craving. It’s time of the year again when starbucks started serving toffee nut latte & frappucino. Nice.

I miss the sweet toffee nut taste in my mouth. Yep, you can not drink it on a regular term, you’ll get bored with it. However, this is a seasonal drink, so I kind of anticipated this drink towards end of the year – nearing christmas. Ah. I just love toffee nut. I may be exaggerating it too much but I don’t care, i LIKE it. :)

Had venti’s at the e-gate with my lecturer just now, while reading my botany lecture notes. How dry & boring the notes are (and remind me of the form 5 and/or matriculation biology where I have to memorize the structure of flowers), but since my left hand holding a toffee nut, I don’t mind digging my head to the notes. :)

Yep. I’m still studying for my botany paper. Wish me luck. Tooo much to read, tooo little time to digest. Ah, blame it on last minutes studying. Dang!

I can’t deny that I break down this morning when I digitize the landuse of Penang. He,he and fought with the great ones. However, the great one calm me down and help me to come back to my senses. I haven’t sobbed so much this year. Well, then I went to Queensbay alone to calm my mind & sooth my feeling. I don’t know why I am being emotional these days. Maybe due to the workload stress accumulating etc and suddenly, a night before I snapped. I had a heartiful lunch meal with a complimentary of green tea ice-cream. I like.

Then the fun part begin. I spent quite alot in Forever 21. OMG OMG OMG. Retail therapy really works! It bring smiles to my face. Weeeee!

and guess what, I bought the hot pink tube dress & the rose with black-ground dress, and a hot and body-hugging halter. Imagine a floral dress with a huge hat for tea party? That’s how it is. Bought two long-sleeve tees and a grey legging. Oh heaven. I would love to shop again after my land survey paper finish.

Apart from that, I bought a nice, yummy strapless pushup from lasenza. Honestly, I don’t really like their lingerie, I prefer triumph, or victoria’s secret.

Apart from that, Borders selling Eleven Minutes of Paolo Coelho and I bought it straight away. Weee!

Bought a set of mini-donut from J.Co for my fellow studio-mate.

Came back around 6.30 pm and I get a text from my lecturer, inviting for japanese-dinner. Then we went off to Queensbay for Sakae Sushi again! wooooh.

… and here I am, contented, full.. and a lil’ bit guilty because I should start studying Botany tonight.

However, I heart forever 21.

Oh i am forever 21.

ah!

Hey ya all. GIS paper went alright today. Not going to give high hope on that but *cross fingers* everything going to be alright. Well, this week has yet to bring smile to me. I am particularly becoming more and more serious due to the study-load for the final examination. It scare some people & i find it funny that I am becoming more expressive here. I had a great argument with the great ones last night in which I’m not looking forward to the morning phone call. Not sure it was remembered by the other party but definitely cut a knife to my heart. Cest la vie.

Some things are meant to be talked about when both are sober & not under influenced. Because by doing so, some virtue will cover up the unspoken disagreement rather than just spill everything out without caring the other receiver’s feeling. And it’s not cool to actually attack the other party during the critical time. That is just plain selfish.

Anyway, that’s that. Hey-yo!

I am confused. Scared. Terrified of the idea that I’m not feeling anything anymore. I feel numb. I’m not feeling that excruciating painful heartache anymore. Does it mean, I have already letting it go? Or does it mean, that I have… moved on?

Or does it because that I’m crazy busy with my studio project and university assignment that part of my brain turn that particular area off for a moment and it can be turned on anytime soon? Will I be able to not feeling it anymore, or would the feeling creeping back to me when my mind drifted or that I’m not occupied with work anymore?

Will it come back to me?

I have not feeling it for the past 3 weeks as my mind totally shut it down, due to the loaded work/assignment-load. In a way, I am feeling grateful for the havoc of sleepless week and mind-bogging journey of completing everything, overnight. However, it got me thinking, I’m feeling numb.

Please tell me I have moved on. Please tell me, it’s gone. Please tell me, I won’t be in that situation anymore. and please tell me, i won’t cry over those petty things anymore.

… and please assure me that when I’m flying back to KK after my final exam, I can finally move on. Being in KK brings back more emotional disturbance to me. I rather live plasticly in Penang, rather than feeling that agony in KK.

some part of me, doesn’t really want to move on. Argh. It’s such a bitch feeling of insecurity and undecided on which path of emotion and thought that I want to go further.

Dang.

I should be studying on my paper tomorrow, the GIS.

Till then.

 

Good morning ya’all!  This is the first morning post after a few months of not seeing sunrise (I slept when the sun rise & wake up when the sun set, typical vampire!). ekekekeke.

It’s good to have 8 hours of sleep too! 8 hours of sleep feels like I’m sleeping for 2 days worth of sleeping. dang. All these while, I’ve been getting max of 5 hours sleep and average sleeping time of 4 hours (and that include waking up in the middle of 4 hours). Really kills my body & mind. I’ve been getting the worse panda eyes, and sepet too. dang.

Completed my first exam paper yesterday and another one would be on the 5th. Wish me luck. I shall get down to studying now. Now, real studying; as in reading books, notes etc. :P

Let me enjoy my hazelnut white coffee & a Tesco coffee bun and I’ll keep in touch with ya’all again later :)

Happy tuesday! :)

This been killing me this week. Thanks to 1000mg shots of ascorbic acid & caffeine. Burning the night oil has been pushed to the maximum. Pray that I will stay well until the end of final exam for this semester. Or else, pray hard my 24 years of intelligence to help me to bull shit on the sheets. Anyhow. Yours truly being vain by posting the attached photo for your viewing pleasure. Or not.

Credit to my fellow LA-mate for taking the above photo.

I am currently finishing up my botany & ecology assignment, submission today & tomorrow. :)

Oh, btw, the LA clan were having the end of studio BBQ at Dataran Merah, HBP last night. It was full with glory, glory food; prawn, fish, crab, kebab’s, potato salad, etc. I ate like I”ve never eaten seafood before. Dang.
