yipee??

Degree starts tomorrow! Wahooo!! *jumps around, hands waving in the air* aren’t you guys excited??!

*crickets silence*

No? Yea, me neither.

Tomorrow will be the first day of my 3-year degree course and I still haven’t gotten my timetable yet. Awesome, right? But luckily, some of my friends who went to the faculty office already taken pictures of all the schedules and uploaded them on FB. I’ve looked through them and none of the tutorial groups start in the morning. So I should have no problem going down to the office and get my timetable early tomorrow morning.

I have to say, I am quite pumped up to study for this new semester seeing how this is my first semester of the first year! I want to leave a good impression as everybody else on their first semester. Last year, my first sem was the best out of the 3 in terms of results. My second was the worst while my third was slightly better. In the end, I managed to get a CGPA of around 3.4 which is good enough for me.

But one thing I’m not looking forward to is cycling, though there’s not much I can do about it. haha.

Out and About

Yesterday was so tiring that I slept for 4 hours in the afternoon! Which of course, in my opinion, it was really cool because I haven’t done that in a while; and also I was really tired and that 4-hour siesta really helped recharge my dead batteries. In the previous post I was ranting about not getting enough rest and I am very determined to rest to the max this weekend! hahaha!!

Ok, so as some of you might know, I’m now in my first year of University! *clap clap clap clap clap* and I also found out that to be officially accepted, I have to get a medical check-up inclusive of a chest x-ray.

So, I woke up early in the morning though I’m not too sure about the time as I was still really blur from waking up so early in the morning. Anyway, so I woke up to send my mom and sister to school so that I can have the car later on to go for my check up at 8am.

At 8, I drove to Manjung Hospital and to be honest, that place needs more parking lots. Seriously, I was there around 8.20 and there are no lots left! Every lot was taken and it was only 8.20am! I was like ‘My gosh!!! Where to park?!’. In the end, I had to park at the mini field at the far end of the hospital.

Being in the hospital for the first time (alone!), is no wonder I was so blur. The only guide I had was my mom telling me to go to the ‘Klinik Pesakit Luar’ or something like that. But I didn’t see any signboards saying that, only one saying ‘Farmasi Pesakit Luar’ and there was no way I was suppose to go there since don’t people collect their medicine at pharmacies?

Luckily, one of the ladies in the pharmacy was kind enough to direct me to the information counter and from there, another lady directed me to the ‘Bilik Rawatan’. Then from there, the doctor in there told me ‘Dari Sitiawan? Orang Sitiawan buat check-up kat Sitiawan’. I was dumbfounded, why couldn’t I get a check-up there? It totally did not make any sense to me at all! Still, the doctor said I could get the x-ray done there. After hoping from counter to counter, I finally am getting my x-ray done.

And please remind me in the future, not to get anymore chest x-ray. It was so uncomfortable! Fist thing the person said to me when I entered the x-ray room was ‘go change in that room, take off your shirt and your bra and any chains/necklaces and put on the white gown inside’. You can only imagine me, standing there, dumbfounded and shocked from that sentence. Like hello, undress? No way Jose!!!

So reluctantly, I changed into the white gowns and I took a really long time changing because I had trouble tying the straps on the gown ( I swear, I always manage to choose the ones that are faulty) so I decided to choose another but that one was worst! So I changed back into the first one I took and messily tied the straps together behind my back. I think the lady was getting impatient waiting for me because I can hear ‘Teh Zhi Ying, sudah siap ka?!’ in panic, I just answered ‘Coming!!!’

The x-ray went well I guess, I got in done in one try which I think it’s good. After changing back to my normal clothes and collecting my x-ray (which looks like those lung pictures you can find in the Bio book) I went to the Sitiawan clinic.

Then at the Sitiawan clinic, the nurses told me that all the doctors weren’t available cuase they are at a meeting and told me to either go to a private clinic or come back another day. Seriously man!!! What is up?! I was like ‘WTH!!!’ so in the end, I went to Rachel’s dad’s clinic to get everything checked out and trust me, I was so happy when it was over!!!

After the whole check-up ordeal was over, I went to get a haircut. It was my first time going on my own but I already have specific instructions from my mom not to cut it short but just to trim off the ends a bit.

After that, I went to take passport-sized photographs for U use. Again, my first time going alone and it was really fast! The wonders of technology! But no matter how advance the camera or the computer is, my face is still as sampat-ed as always then the pictures come out. *shakes head* some things just won’t change. *haiz..*

So after that, I went to the shop that sells cookies near Crystal Hotel and helped my mom buy 2kg worth of pineapple jam because she’s going to start making CNY cookies on Sunday! *woohooo!!!* Pineapple tarts for the win!!

And my final task for the morning was to go pick up my mom and sister from school and go for lunch.

Pretty busy, huh? I was out from 8am until 2pm. no wonder I slept for such a long time. haha

Let Me Rest

This past holiday has been very tiring for me, but most of the blame goes to me while the rest is shared equally on other reasons which I will refrain from mentioning (knowing myself, I might ter-mention it anyway…haha).

I’ve been sleeping around 2am every day for the past 2 weeks and waking up at 10am. Though I did get 8 hours of sleep, sleeping pass midnight for two weeks is never healthy and I kinda regret it. *nervous laugh*

Sleep past midnight isn’t my only reason, ever since my holidays started, I’ve been running around the house and town non-stop, doing chores and running errands. One thing I’ve notice that this happens virtually every time I have a break. I get lots of stuff to do and I don’t get to rest properly.

Like today, I downloaded a one-hour episode of a Korean variety program (Idol Sports Athletes Championship 2010 Chuseok Special) and was hoping to be able to watch it when I’m back at home. I watched it, but I paused and got up from my seat to run errands more than 10 times within that one-hour show! It was only supposed to take me one-hour to finish it but it took me also 2hours!!! It is really not fun to watch a show while pausing that many times! It totally throws off the feelings and mind you, it was a sports show so I didn’t feel the suspense and intensity while waiting for the winners to be announced.

I wonder is it a very big deal that I want to rest instead of run errands for others. I don’t think so. I’m just really tired and want to sit down and relax, enjoy myself.

Wonder what’s it like to laze around at home, doing nothing, enjoying myself without having to worry about others shouting at me to run errands. Call me irresponsible or whatever you want.

I’m too tired to care anymore.

사랑해, 내친한친구

ByeBye at last!

with that, i can say bye bye to Foundation in Arts and hello to Bachelor Degree in Commerce Accounting

Here We Go Again...

My holidays so far have been quite uneventful, if I can say so myself. Come to think of it, most of my semester breaks so far have been uneventful with me staying at home most of the time and staring at the computer screen all day.

This time is no different. Every day, I go to sleep around 1 or 2am and wake up around 10am. After procrastinating and what not, by the time I finish breakfast and bathing, it’s already noon and I sit in front of the TV to watch a series that I haven’t watched in a very long time; Stairway to Heaven.

After that comes lunch, then I’m in front of the computer again until (if there is) any TV programs on KBS (more often than not) that I want to watch like Music Bank, Invincible Youth, Happy Together (occasionally, depends on who are the guests) and Let’s Go Dream Team season 2.

Pretty mundane, huh? I couldn’t agree with you more!

So to keep myself entertained, I have to find new things to do online like watch any random Korean Movie that the title attracts me at mysoju, watch any TV program on Discovery, National Geographic or ACF that I haven’t watched in a while.

Holidays can be very fun but it can also be very boring. It depends on how you spend it. If your schedule is like mine, obviously it would be boring, now wouldn’t it?

At least blogging can help kill some time =]

Love this show a lot, not only because Zac Efron looks really good here (somehow, in HSM, he doesn't look as good) but also the story is very touching and to be honest with you, it can bring tears. Enough said.
