Finals!

Finals starts tomorrow!! @_@ am worried but just can't wait to get over it though I have tonnes more to study.. I get all angsty, unsure, darn nervous and all those weird symptoms running through my spine prior to exams. My daddy says I've phobia of exams. Hmm..Perhaps. And that evil old man barely calls me to check on me. Dad!!! Call me!!! Like... a few times a day ok??!! You're the outlet of all my angst!!!

But the very next morning after exams, I'd be flying back home and this time it'll be 2 months of sheer paradise. no more exams or quizzes to electrocute me. =p

Guess what's the first exam that's whipping me.... my most feared... CALCULUS!! But then, it'll be the first to be over so I guess it ain't all that bad. ^^ I still don't know how to sketch a darn graph.. sighh....

Sociology Trial

My sociology trial is over. It was really heaps of fun. Everybody dressed according to their roles. It was held on 22nd October 2008 in the FOLA room at 4pm. Like any trials, there'd be a prosecutor and defendant group. I was on the defendent's and we lost. Poor Dr. Pinkerton was sentenced to death by hanging. Awwwhhh...

Ok, our case was about euthanasia : mercy killing which was illegal under the law of Worldville. However, Dr. Pat Pinkerton, a physician flout that particular law and performed euthanasia on Mr. James Jankowsky, a social studies teacher who claimed to be an extremely depressed man; he hated his job and the news of his liver cancer had an alarming impact on him which enhances his depression. Our verdict was that, Mr. James Jankowsky persuaded or forced Dr. Pinkerton to help end his miseries through euthanasia. But, the prosecutor's side claimed that Dr. Pinkerton was the one who persuaded Jankowsky to undergo euthanasia to earn money to clear off his gambling debts. The story got a lot more interesting after some developments.

We pushed the blame of the gambling debts to Mrs. Pinkerton (prosecutor side) and Dr. Pinkerton borrowed money from the loan shark just to help clear off his wife's debts. We stated that Paul Pinkerton, Dr. Pat Pinkerton's brother who is a multi-billionaire was willing to help clear off the debts.

However, another development accused Dr. Pinkerton of intentional murder because according to the development, Ben Bollan, Dr. Pinkerton's assistant was overheard at the bar on September 13th 2008 saying " I knew he did it for the money but at least he paid me well for it". We twisted the development to be some misinterreted set up by saying on 13th Sept, Ben Bollan was having a vacation at Paris. But then, woooshhh.. the sharp minded prosecutor side ended up getting us appalled by saying Ben Bollan was overheard at a bar in Paris. We assumed that they accused overhearing him in Worldville. We were short sighted. Blehhh....

I played the role of Mr. James Jankowsky psychiatrist. I testified that Mr. Jankowsky was an exorbitantly depressed man who wishes to end his life. I also had to made it clear to everyone that Mr. Jankowsky was aware of his decisions and he was always in full control of himself. He wasn't mentally instable. Thank goodness I was a psychiatrist and not a psychologist because the lawyer from the prosecutor tried to shoot me by asking "Do you know the psychological fallacy?". I told him to explain because I didn't know then I remembered psychology and psychiatry are two rather distinctive field so I answered him that. Thanks to last minute minuscule research the night before trials. haha... I managed to answer all questions smoothly despite the nerves that were hitting me. My groupmates told me I did a good job. I'm so happy. *peace*..haha....this peace thingy is very popular now... it has hidden meanings...

Overall, the juries reached a verdict of guilty!!! Poor Adhwa who played Pinkerton. haha... But Tan, our lawyer did a spectacular job. She's sporting and so diligent the entire time and best of all, she doesn't give us any unnecessary pressure or anything.

After our case, we had to be juries for another case;the case was deliberate murder. The whole thing ended at 12.30. Then, we stayed back to take lots of photos before the whole bunch of us went to Al-Salam for dinner after that. After dinner, 5 of us, Madonna, Hidayah Khalil, Hidayah Ismail, Fatin and myself perambulate slowly along the so called couple's path in college and camwhored the whole way back to our furthest hostel block. So fun...

Before the trial started. Liyana,me,Fatin and Safwana. They are all in the prosecutor group. I was the only outcast. haha... all my friends are in the prosecutor's so they kept rubbing in my face the fact that they won. ish ish...hahaha....

Listening attentively to the testimonies given by witnesses in the prosecutor's side.Our co-lawyer,Izham giving in his utmost full concentration...

That's Adhwa a.k.a Dr. Pat Pinkerton giving his testimony in hopes to save himself from death.. haha..
The evil prosecutor's group... =p

We're the wrongly accused defendant's group.. ^^ sorry for the bias... Don't kill me, Maddie

The judge and his peculiar gavel.. that's Professor Borges, our Sociology lecturer..

It was then our turn to be the juries for the next case... we find the accused, guilty!! haha..

After both trials were over, we all happily indulge our narcissistic selves with some camwhoring pleasures. =)

Si Ning, me, Prof Borges, Tan

Defendant group and Judge Borges

The Pinkertons..Hidayah(Patty Pinkerton), Chloe(Penny Pinkerton), Adhwa(Dr.Pink) His wife and daughter testified against him... tsk tsk..painful betrayal..

peace!
Professor Borges & I

On the way to Al-Salam.. it was a long but happy walk..

Finally, seated in Al-Salam

Fatin and I

On the way back after filling up our hungry bellies.... Madonna and I caught in subtle lesbianism.. haha...

We're just misunderstood... lalalala....

I've more pictures to upload but the connection here is killing my patience. Just to upload those above, I've squandered 2 hours. I haven't studied for finals!!! Lazy.... how??

A Hodgepodge of Feelings

This very instance, I'm happy because I just found out that Calculus class is canceled. Nyahaha!! Sorry Mr. Nathan. I really like your classes but I just abhor the subject.

I'm extremely elated because I've precisely 2 weeks till the end of this semester then it'll be total relaxation and play time.

I guess that's all I'm happy about.

Melancholy for I'm caught in a plight of fats increment. Woooshhh... I've just been here to study for some 4 months and I've gain weight like never ever EVER before. My goodness!! Despairing, disbelieving, uncontrollable. I eat when I'm hungry. =( Perhaps a tad much on snacks too and the foods here are basically all really high on fats. Imagine 2 years here.. what would be of me? oOOoo... During my recent trip back home, evil moomie said "Please don't feed yourself untill so fat!!". =( I weigh myself and honestly, I was kind of appalled. I'm at my heaviest now. Sad story. haha..

Worried because finals is coming in less than 10 days. So much to do so little time. Most fretful of calculus.

Intense animosity. I hate my timetable for next semester. Did my advanced enrollment yesterday but did not get the timetable I'd planned for. They just enrolled me in for the classes I chose but because some section were already full, so they changed me to another section which happens to clash with my other subjects. They say I got to wait till like end of the year or next year to get my new timetable and if they cannot do anything about the clashes, I've got to add drop subjects. The thing is, I did try to change some subjects to entangle the clashes but there's seriously no other combinations I can make anymore. If I've my timetable now, I can plan for next year's trip back home and start booking my tickets before they hike. Crapsticks!! Fishcakes!! Now, I've got to wait till next year to plan all those. Sigh... And I feel so errmm... stuck in between incomplete task. The timetable is like hanging which makes me feel like I'm hanging too. Erghh...

Infuriated!! The management here said all of us staying in Shakespeare block would have to clear up our rooms and either bring back our stuffs or just put them in the store room. Ridiculous!! Have they ever thought of those who actually need to catch a plane to get back home. How are we to bring back everything? Two months later, bring all those stuff back here again? Insane! Really vexes me. If we put our stuffs in the store room which is just one small bedroom, wouldn't our stuff get mixed up and I'm sure there'd be losses. Sigh... I'm beginning to hate this school.

I feel hungry now. hahha.... tata

His Birthday

I'm back in school once again but sigh not because there's only 16 days left in this semester!!! Woohoo!! Happiness never walks alone I guess because this also means finals is drawing closer and closer. I actually have a Biology quiz tomorrow morning and I haven't really studied yet. But heck, it's only 2 marks. But still,I know...haha...

Anyway, yesterday, celebrated his birthday with him. So sweet of him that he don't mind just celebrating it with me and without his friends. =D But since it's still his birthday now, his friends are going to celebrate somemore with him. On the phone just now, he told me that he don't find that so important because he had already celebrated it with me and he's very happy. Awwwhhh... so touched..

I'm really grateful to my parents for their open-mindedness and care. My parents were so nice to drive me up and down, left and right just to get his presents,cake and all. (p/s: I can't drive yet so...yea...hehe...) They gave me quite an amount of money to get his presents,cake and treat him for dinner. Love them so much. I initially wanted to draw money from my own account but mum say it's ok... just ask from dad. muahahhaa..... =D Aren't parents simply the best?? Who dare question the veracity to that?? >.< =D

I got him stuff which I absolutely completely whole heartedly adore. My sis and mum loves them too. They're just so cute,to me. =D I didn't manage to get him his ferrero rocher though.

Even the box,I love... hahaha..I love nice big gift boxes.

Anyway, I brought him (he drove,of course) to the Hilton Steakhouse for dinner because after some little research over the net, critics kinda suggested that Hilton Steakhouse is the nicest fine dining place in Kuching. Everything there is of course prim and proper but it was kind of awkward to be under the watchful eyes of the waiters/waitresses. No privacy.

Wish making,cake cutting and candles blowing session was at midnight. He forced me to sing him a happy birthday song... hmphh.. I can't sing... bashful... haha...sang anyway.. in a very lousy way with lots of laughs and pauses in between. hahah...

Really happy to be home again though it's just for a while.. The next time I get home, it'll be for 2 months. Pure elation. I'm going to take driving lessons!! haha... I got to learn recognizing roads first though. Tough. haha...

My dad told me that mum might be bringing Ann to Korea end of this year but it's yet to be confirmed. I want to go too!! I must go!! Don't care. I love Korea!!! Miss it. Want to go!! musing musing musing....

Got to run.. study for bio quiz.. ciaoz

Little Miss Procrastinator

I'm so busted. haha... His birthday is on 19th October so we're going to celebrate it on 18th and the usuals, countdown till 12am thingy. The thing is I'm kind of supposed to plan and all but of course that's far from done. hehe...

And presents... gosh... I've yet to hunt for them and it's super difficult to get him the perfect present within a certain budget that is. I absolutely cannot get him clothes, wallets or belts because he has a whole shop of those stuffs. -_-" He adores watches but then those are like what...thousands?? So.... I decided to go with the cute approach. haha.... Giving him stuff which I think is cute and those that I love. hehehe.... Going to get him a few boxes of ferrero rocher too.. he loves them.. i hate...there's nuts. haha

And I'm going to bake him the only thing I know;my favorite honey cornflakes cookies. Because during his Raya visiting, someone served him that and he told me he wanted me to bake them for him. So, after this post, I'm going to get my lazy bum to work. This time, without help from my sister. =(

His presents... errrmm....not too sure... And I initially planned to make him a card but I got no time due to too much procrastination. hehe... But I'll try to see what I can do.

I feel so bad that I spent so little time and effort on planning his birthday because he kind of like subtly planned for mine and my birthday is not until March. haha...

He's really nice. Really happy being with him and people might have certain stereotypical perceptions about us but we know us best. He's very mature and never acts irrationally. He's so sweet. Love him. Never thought I would so much. Weird huh? I shocked myself too. haha...

ERrrRRmm...

I finally got through all those hectic assignments n tests. I'm going back home again tomorrow.. hehe... Delighted!!

I just love going back home.

But.... there was never a time back home when I'm so called holiday-ing do I have total relaxation. There'd always be the need to study for quiz or tests. And this Monday, I'm having another Biology quiz. 3 brand new chappies to bloat myself. Perhaps it's more a boon than a bane since finals is approaching and studying that bit would ease a whole lot later. haha... just trying to console myself. Biology could be such a pain at times. Endless workload which makes me reconsider whether to take the continuation next semester. Oh shucks.. I really don't know...

Had my last sociology short test errmm...on Tuesday... Didn't have time to pen down all I wanted as usual because we've only got 50 minutes to answer 2 essays and it has to be considerably lengthy to satisfy professor. Was basically rushing the whole time as usual with little time to think or reflect... I hope it'll turn out errrmmm alright.... And my sociology trials would be on 22nd October. My case is regarding euthanasia. Will talk on that soon. =)

And....dilemma... I do not know the ideal birthday gift for a guy... gahhh....

I'm having atrocious pimple attack...

I haven't pack. Boooooo Hoooooo........

And... I just got hold of the Korean drama "Coffee Prince" in which my sweetie Gong Yoo acted as the main star... muahaha... I know I'm extremely outdated but better late than never. Off to watch now. ^^

Holiday Saga Part 2

ahhh.... just got back to my room.... had biology test just now... yay!! it's over... But still tonnes to do but feel like hitting the relax button for just a bit... darn tired... so....might as well continue my holiday story before they slip off my mind...

Monday, 29th September

Oh oh!! This day was explicitly fun!! Met up with my besties. The initial plan was to meet up in Spring then steamboat for dinner then laser tag. Sadly, Aixora couldn't make it to Spring because she needs to help around at home since Raya was just around the corner. Joanne couldn't too as she was busy with school project. So, Isabel and I met up in Spring and later Michelle joined us. Awwhh...I so miss shopping with Isabel. Heaps of fun! Haven't seen her for aeons and she became so much prettier and she lost weight which adds to her prettiness. Awhh... I miss her!! So, basically we just ambulate directionless in Spring and spend on what we see fit. Hahaha..."see fit"...hrrmm...it's kinda hard sometimes to resist the temptation to say the least. haha... Of course, we spill some secrets to each other.. Then, we went to Food&Tea, our usual "sit and talk" spot and just chatter time away. Michelle and him joined us soon after that.

At night, we went to Hornbill for steamboat suggested by Aixora, the avid steamboat-er. Athila, Ellyas and Kelvin joined us as well. It was really fun. The ever so merrily boisterous atmosphere which I missed so much was revived. hehe.. Joanne's biology project was to catch errmm 20 or so species of insects and she was still working on it that night. We decided to help her out so we went hunting in the museum. haha... Isabel and I reached there with Joanne first. We were walking around with nets in high spirit but suddenly the sky decided to "wee wee" so we left with no insects. =( The laser tag place was closed too that time so, we just went to open air market to meet up with lil Michelle Lee. (This is another Michelle)

Us at Open Air Market

Tuesday,30th September
Haha...this day was fun too. He brought me out for brunch and then asked me to accompany him at his shop. Apparently, his mom asked him to help out a bit at the shop. He managed to coaxed me into accompanying him. So, his mom knows about us know. Gahh...am utterly shy. And, I got a bite on my "alien" donut. Bliss.

His shop in Spring

Wednesday, 1st October
Raya!! He picked me up and we went to visit Aixora. Didn't help out this year. hehe.. Then, he cajoled me to follow him visiting. I suck so badly when it comes to socializing. I didn't know any of his friends so, I wasn't sure if I wanted to follow but Isabel urged me to just follow. So, yea.. it was HORRIBLE! Shy to the max! Don't want to recall much of that day. haha...

Visiting Aixora during Raya

Thursday & Friday (2nd and 3rd October)
Bummer.... I can't remember much bout these two days. Perhaps nothing significant happened. One of those two days, we went for movies but I can't remember which. We watched "Flight of the Living Dead" and it was illogically annoying. haha..The zombies were despicably ghastly!

Oh yea.. Friday, I went to the airport to send darling Isabel off.

At the airport.. love ya lots!

I can't remember what I did on Saturday too except the fact that I fell sick. PfffTTt.... sign of old age.

Sunday (5th October)
Marked the last day of holiday. *Sob sob sob* Went to buy some stuff I need to bring back to school with mum and dad. On the way back, I had a sudden craving for dim sum. At first, evil dad wanted to head back home already but after driving a while...hahaha...he changed his mind. haha...Daddy loves me!! haha... (my dad monitors my blog by the way) This isn't the first time my dad acts this way. haha... I love going home to claim all the pampering I missed out here. muahaha...But it was already 4 something so the place that sells dim sum I love stopped serving already. Boo hoo... Went to Kaya & Toast instead. Back home, mum packed my luggage and all. At night, went out with him. Going out with him the night before my departure back to school had always been melancholic but this time, it was errmm... more or less densed dismay but only for a while. Dad would start thinking "see...see...distraction!" Pffffttt... haha..

Anyway, love the holidays. Hate this immensed pressure I'm facing now. I gotta start chunking lots of Sociology into my head soon. The horror... -_-"

Bee zee

I'm now back in school once again. My 10 day holiday back home was superb but it still wasn't enough =( Will continue on my holiday saga soon when I have adequate time here..

What awaits me this month....

This Wednesday, Calculus test (gRRrrr....)
This Friday, Biology test
The coming Monday, Biology quiz
The coming Tuesday, most probably Sociology test (killer.....)
The next week after that, trials (it's socio's interesting project)
Got to do some reports as proof for the character I'm playing for trials...

The week after that.... FINALS... major killer... hahha... I'm still figuring how to cramp 16 chappies of Sociology and 18 chappies of biology in my head in such short time frame...

This one whole month's going to be a hell of a roller coaster ride...
