-Sigh-

So little time, so little money and SO MANY CONCERTS.

Firstly, there is Michael Buble in March. That is at least RM250.

Then there is Maroon 5 in April. That one is at least RM150.

And if one is a stupid Bieber fan, there is also him in April. His is cheap though. Just RM98. But thankfully I can't stand the sight or sound of that bloody kid. Lol!

But what the hell man.

Natalia Pang's A Series of Unfortunate Events

It has only been 39 days into the new year. Into what seem to look like a bloody frustrating 2010. And I have reasons to prove it. So do not try to be a smart ass on here and tell me to be positive. I refuse to so in the nearest future.

So here are my series of unfortunate events.

1. Death of a friend. Not just any friend. A really good friend. And not just any good friend. A good friend whom I did not get to apologise to. And it is still haunting me. It just sucks. And the fact that she left WAY before her time sucks even more.

2. A friend got sick. Healing but still sick.

3. News of my grandmother being sick. "I think this is her last Chinese New Year," says my mum. No need for elaboration right?

4. Car breakdown. After class when I was super hungry. And what a time! Just 2 days before I need to drive it all the way back to Melaka for my school holidays. Anyway, it was the battery.

So how many obstacles will God put before me before I lose my mind? I almost lose it just now and I am just trying to hold everything in for now. And I would say it won't be long before I really have a nervous breakdown or anything more serious.

Cinkering, Monkering, Tonkering

It has been 2 weeks and still.. -sigh-

Unluckiness

The worse thing that could happen to a person (in my opinion) when going back to school is NO WATER SUPPLY. Since yesterday morning till now, my hostel's water supply has been cut off for the third time now and it sucks! I can't even bathe and I was lucky enough to have been able to bathe yesterday (I bathed much earlier than I usually do). I called the office twice to get them to fix the problem but I guess it is gonna linger for quite a while since nothing much is done since. -Sigh- I WANNA BATHE!!!! And not only that, if the water supply is cut any longer, the toilets are gonna stink. -SIGH-

Another story.

Out of curiosity, after posting the above story (I added what you are now reading after posting the above paragraph for about half an hour), I went to check on the water supple and there is water. Yay! I quickly headed back to my room and grabbed my bucket and headed to the showers. While I was happily washing my hair, the bloody water supply went off again! Am I that unlucky?!!! I was cursing my luck while staring at the tap head (mind you that my head still has shampoo at this point). So I waited and waited till a few drops of water came back and then a steady amount of droplets, just enough to get all the shampoo of my head. Damn it. I then quickly packed up and ran downstairs to the first floor and thank God!!! I head someone showering. So I then continued bathing on that floor and after that proceeded to wash my clothes on that floor too. -Sigh- I really wonder how long more this water supply is gonna remain this way. It is beginning to get on my nerves. -Sigh-

Oh yeah! On a brighter note, during the most recent weekend round of soccer, with Chelsea drawing and Manchester United losing and Arsenal beating Liverpool, Arsenal are now back in the title race with a game in hand!! Woohoo!!! All hail Andrei Arshavin!!! He must really love to play against Liverpool now. Only his second game against them and he has scored FIVE goals. Loserpool!!!

A Little Update On My Semester

As the title suggest, this is a little update on my life in my third sem.

One word to sum it all up.

SUCKS

Two words to sum it up.

BLOODY HELL

-Sigh-

All the subjects are boring if not the lecturers themselves. And I believe some of my lecturers are cuckoos. (Sorry, TJ if you are reading this.) Anyway, it just sucks and I am wishing it will all end soon. However, thinking about it ending soon will mean, I will only have a year and a half with my dinosaurs left! And that is SAD!! A few days ago (just 2 days actually), I attended the graduation thingy of some seniors (PH, Siew Fong and 38 Senior) and it was awesome and again, I can't wait to graduate. And again, graduating soon will mean I will have to bid farewell to my dinosaurs soon and I would hate that. -Sigh-

Anyway, in short, this semester sucks and the only thing I am enjoying is the time with my fellow beloved dinosaurs.

My Busy Life

I am finding this semester to be very busy indeed. Assignments are coming thick and fast. And on top of that, I have non-academical responsibilities to carry out. SUKAM is nearing. Therefore, futsal training has been really frequent and it is making me so tired. I am getting many bruises too. People keeps kicking me! Even Soo Chen kicked me. Next, Faculty Night plans are starting and as the head, work is coming. Meetings too. -Sigh-

And the worst part is that this semester really sucks. I think I am enjoying my time with friends and my non-academical responsibilities more than anything this semester. -Sigh- I hope it gets better cuz it is still a LONG more way to go before this semester ends. And I hope I will stop getting cuckoos are my lecturers. There has got to be good ones here besides TJ. Lol.

I Now Hate Mondays And Tuesdays

Yup. I really do. All because I have this bl**dy subject. BIOLOGICAL PSYCHOLOGY. Wait. The subject is good. It is the LECTURER that sucks. Big time. Not only doesn't she teaches us, she is a total cuckoo nuts. -Sigh- I am hating this class with every bit of me and so are my friends. So Mondays and Tuesdays are officially the stupid days of the week.

-Sigh- Actually, I am hating this whole semester. Can't wait for it to end. -Sigh-

My Semester So Far

18 credits this semester..

7 subjects..

That is the statistics so far.

My first subject is Psychological Testing and Measurement. The lecturer sucks so far. All he does is talk granpa stories.
Second is Industrial Psychology. Taught by Dr Ishak again. Haven't seen him though. He is on holiday. Would you believe that?
Next, Cognitive Psychology. The lecturer is this guy who speaks English with English accent. Lol. He's kinda cool.
Then there is Biological Psychology which totally sucks upon getting a FREAKING SUCKY lecturer. Don't wanna start complaining now cuz if I do, I won't stop and I would curse. -Sigh-
Fifth is Training and Development. The lecturer is a lady. So was the one teaching Biological Psychology. But this one is better. And she thinks I am Turkish. Lol.
Next is, Institusi Islam. -Sigh- Should I even say anything? I guess not. -Sigh-
Lastly, FUTSAL! That is my Co-Q. Probably the subject I will enjoy most. Lol!

That is about it. For now. I am bound to complain more later. Lol!

The End of Bad Luck Spell

So I went back home this weekend and I got my fridge repaired. Thanks, daddy!

Then, 38 Senior sort of fixed my laptop. Thanks, 38!

And my phone..warranty covers it. So thanks, warranty! Lol!

My Spell of Bad Luck

I don't know what is going on but my luck cannot be any worse or I shall go nuts.

Firstly, my fridge just suddenly decided to not work anymore. Now I can't even drink my milk! And I can't get my garlic butter and stuffs. -SIGH!!!!!!-

Secondly, my laptop is messing with me. It won't shut down. It won't read pendrives or external. It won't allow Bluetooth to work. It won't even work any external mouse connected to it. Another big -SIGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!- And I have no idea how to transfer my inportant stuffs now to an external in case I have to format it again. -SIGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!-

Next, my new phone is also playing with me. There is something wrong with the screen. I believe there is something disfunctional about the pixles.

Lastly, my glasses broke. Not the whole thing. Just one leg. -Sigh-

What next? Listing this makes me wanna cry already. And as if I don't have other problems in my head. I need a break. =(

A Stupid Move

This is an article I got from The Star Online.

KUALA LUMPUR: The Cabinet has decided that the medium of instruction for Maths and Science will revert to Bahasa Malaysia in national schools and mother-tongue languages in national-type schools from 2012 onwards.

The reversal of the Teaching of Math and Science in English (PPSMI) policy will be done in stages, Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin said on Wednesday.

He however added that there will be greater emphasis on learning the English language.

English literature will be re-introduced, as will subjects on grammar and composition.

Beginning 2012, students in Year One and Year Four in primary schools, and Form One and Form Four in secondary schools, will learn Math and Science in Bahasa Malaysia.

The change will not affect those in Form Six and Matriculation.

The two subjects will be taught in two languages until 2014 for other students, he said.

“The gap between rural and urban students has widened since PPSMI started.

“Only 19.2% of secondary teachers and 9.96% of primary teachers were sufficiently proficient in English,” he said, explaining the Government’s decision to revert to the old system.

On efforts to emphasise the learning of English, the number of English teachers would be increased by 13,933 -- retirees would be hired, as well as foreigners if need be.

Primary schools will also increase English classes by 90 minutes a week.

There have been calls from various groups for the policy to revert to before 2003, when the subjects were taught in Bahasa Malaysia in national schools, and either in Chinese or Tamil in national-type schools.

The issue has seen a rare alliance between Malay and Chinese educationists, who are against the switch, although there are also calls by many parents and entrepreneurs for English to be maintained.

So, what do you think? I think it is stupid. It is no wonder MANY students here in uni cannot speak in English. And even some LECTURERS for that humiliating matter.

An Unwelcome Slight Delay

I have prepared myself (sort of) to face possible outcomes when my results for the second semester's finals are released. And the anxiety of it already started to sink in since yesterday. And as usual, I even dreamt about obtaining my results already (it happens everytime the release of major results are nearing). However, I just got a text from a friend and I had to double check with my own eyes and I see this on UTM's Aimsweb:

"Maaf!! Keputusan Peperiksaan untuk Sesi/Semester 20082009/2 dibuka pada 1 June 2009 hingga 29 July 2009. "

Damn! Now I have to wait till Monday and I have to be all nervous again! -Sigh- At least I can sleep tonight though. BUT I STILL HAVE TO WAIT TILL MONDAY! Argh! FOUR MORE FREAKING TENSE DAYS!

Phew!

Finally my internet is working again. I hope it is fixed for real and not just by luck! Break is just too boring if I don't even have access to the internet!

Another Trophyless Season

Once again, Arsenal will end the football campaign without winning anything. Not even the Carling Cup. Their 2 brightest chance were FA Cup and UEFA Champions League titles. But they lost to Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-final at Wembley after leading 1-0 and this morning, Arsenal lost to Manchester United for a place in the final. So there goes Arsenal's hopes this season. And my concern is will the likes of Cesc Fabregas and the other young blood stay for another season after going season after season without winning any thophy? I really do hope they will stay and that Arsenal will start winning again next season 'cause it really has been yet another disappointing season for all Gooners out there.

I Just Have To Say..

..that I have no whatsoever clue on why we just have to study Islamic Psychology.
..that I don't see any good coming from this subject.
..that I think it is EXTREMELY BIASED that we are made to study this subject. Clearly, it is to favour the majority race in Malaysia.
..that it is ABSOLUTELY POINTLESS in studying this subject.
..that my lecturer is just a total nutcase for asking us to read all the POINTLESS and FRUSTRATINGLY BORING as well as RIDICULOUS articles on Islam.
..that if we non-Muslims have to study this, why don't they make the Muslims study Buddhism Psychology or Hinduism Psychology or even better Christianity Psychology?
..and that everything that has to do with this subject is just so TERRIBLY MEANINGLESS, POINTLESS, CLUELESS, RIDICULOUS and it is a joke that we have to learn it.
..and for that, I am totally losing my mind and I am growing increasingly frustrated as I study for this bl**dy paper.

My One Hell Of A Lazy Roommate

She is able to wake up at 7.30a.m. to go to the library and she wouldn't be discreet about it. She NEVER fails to wake me up when she does. If the slamming of the door do not work, her stupid boyfriend has to call (he called at 12.30a.m. this morning) or she has to stir her cup of whatever-funny-smelling-thing-she-drinks as if she wants to puncture the cup with her spoon. GREAT, ain't she?

So why is she lazy? At the beginning of our first semester, it was a done deal that I sweep and she mops. But she missed her duty MANY times. And this semester alone, she skipped so many times and I only asked her to mop ONCE A WEEK! Is that too much to ask? Freaking lazy ass! This month alone, she hasn't even touch the damn mop! 3 weeks ago, I can't remember what took place, but she didn't mop. The past 2 Sundays, she was back in her hometown and I mopped for her. Last night, I swept at 11.30p.m. and asked her to mop before she leaves today and she just didn't! (I am controlling myself from using "prettier" words now.) How can she forgets when the mop and the pail are just right in front of her eyes?! Bl**dy hell!

Anyway, I am gonna go mop the floor now in an angry mood. And I really feel like throwing the water I will use to mop later on her bed. But I shall not lower myself to her level. I think I am better than that. Wait. Of course I am. Lol. But there is one thing I would really love to do. I would really like to throw her phone out of the room when it rings in the middle of the night. Can she just be more f***ing considerate? People need to sleep for Christ' sake!! And for this reason alone, though, I am thankful that the semester is coming to an end and that next year, I am living nowhere near this freaking bl**dy hell ass.

Oh yeah. When I am sweeping the floor, by the way, she never fails to dust her side of the room. And the way she dusts is like she wants to beat the hell out of her table and bed and then she would make me sneeze for the whole day. And it even hurt my eyes. No brains, roommate.

In addition, I have a fridge here in my room and of course, we have to pay for using it. My stupid roommate and I shared for it and she knows how to fill it up. But when it comes to cleaning the fridge, she never bothers to even offer help. What do I expect at this point right? And the funniest thing is that, Soo Chen, Foon Yee and Ma Lee and maybe 'darling' (I forgot if she did) have all volunteered to help me before and they don't even use it. The clear difference between people with heart and without one. And maybe I should "iced" her one day. Lol.

Oh yeah. I am so happy and proud of myself that I did not bother telling her that we had to read the book and not just the slides for our Developmental Psychology. The lecturer first said it would be suffice to just read the slides but if you really have the brains in the first place, you would know it will not be. The slides are just too simple. Out of laziness to read the book though, I double-checked with the lecturer and she said, "Who said the slides would be enough? I didn't." She did but I guess it must have slipped her mind. But it is TOTALLY alright. 'Cause I did and my dinosaurs did and the paper didn't really slay us but it did killed my roommate. And she can fail it for all I care. But I am not saying that I would do well 'cause the paper was indeed tough. Lol.

-Sigh- I have said it before and I am saying it again. This roommate of mine is not stupid or ignorant alright. But she is definately a f***ing jerk. And lazy and untidy. VERY. -Argh!!!-

P/S: Readers, feel free to curse all you want in your comments. I wouldn't mind at all. :) Well, as long as you know which way to curse of course. Lol!

People..

Disclaimer: This post is only a matter of my opinion and it is not intended to anyone at all.

When one starts one's university life, one is bound to meet people from all walks of life.

Some are smart asses
Some are know-it-all (as if!)
Some are naive (hmm..)
Some are extremely sensitive (hate this kind)
Some are caring, empathatic and loving
Some are b***hes or SOBs
Some are bl**dy irritating
Some are pain in the neck
Some are just too nice (or you think they are)

In short, one meets either straight forwardly nice people, straight forwardly bad asses or the worst kind, the ones who pretend to either be nice or evil with their own personal hidden agendas. And these are the parasites who will just smile at you while they are actually silently sucking your blood (metaphor speaking, of course).

And let me enlighten something, the naive ones are sometimes the ones to watch. Do not take them for granted. You may remember that a while ago, I did a post on Pokémons. And I actually learnt something from that post. Mainly concerning this particular Pokémon named Psyduck and I quote "Psyduck resembles a yellow duck or platypus with a vacant stare. Its appearance, according to the Pokédex, is meant to trick enemies into thinking it is weak." So think again because I did and I can seriously tell you it makes sense. Also, if anyone of you are the too nice and kind ones, toughen up before you are taken advantage of and before others step on your head.

But then again, not everyone you meet are evil. From personal experiences, I have met some awfully nice people also. And these are the ones you put effort into keeping them as friends.

Lastly, as for me, thankfully, I am just too stubborn to give in, hot headed and also someone who is just so straight forward. So at least I am quite well taken care of. And I should just throw this in while I am talking about people, "Mess with me and don't even think I will let you go without creating hell for you." Just a word. Have a nice day, people. That is to all kinds of people. Lol!

Another Busy Month

Last month was pretty much hell and it looks like this month will be too. -SIGH- Referring to the above photo, red circles are my finals while the green ones are days where I have to dedicate myself into studying. Anyway, it still looks ok for me and while I have to struggle a little now, come May, I am as free as a bird again and then the madness starts again in July. -Sigh- Life. -Sigh-

TESTS!!!!!

Lately, I feel like my classmates and I are being fired with one test after another. We have Statistics test 2 on Saturday, Developmental Psychology test on Monday, French test on Tuesday and another Islamic Psychology test (to be announced when). I haven't even study any! And we are not even done with our assignmnents!! (In fact, I am completing one now! And then I am gonna try to do another. God knows when I am gonna sleep! My record is falling! Lol.) -Sigh- We are all gonna be real psychos after all these.

Oh yeah, on Sunday, the first Formula One race of this season is taking place in Australia and I will be covering all the races on my blog this season. For for those of you who just loves Formula One and do not have a source to watch it, look out for my posts on the stats, etc and also post race entries.

And there is no club soccer this weekend. All are off for international duty. World Cup qualifying.

Sickening Note-Making And STUPID Lecturer

If I could use foul language here without getting a call from my mum after she reads it, this post will never be suitable for kids. 'Cause I was just that mad when my stupid (the best word I could use to stay away from foul language) lecturer kept making us change our stupid note-makings. ARGH!! I spent HOURS on that and if all my other lecturers were as stupid as her, my classmates and I wouldn't have to sleep anymore whenever we were given an assignment. She is just that stupid.

This was my first draft.

This one is the second and was suppose to be the final one is if was good enough for that jack-ass.

This one was the the final one until that jack-ass "Godzilla" complained that it was still not good enough. (Controlling myself from using "better" words.)

And this one is the best I will ever do for this stupid assignment. If she doesn't like it, I wish I could just crush it, throw it at her and leave the class.

Thankfully she accepted it though. Just got back from class. Was cursing her the whole way in class. No wonder I can be champion in the World Complaining and Nagging Championship. -Sigh- But for now, I am off to bed. Gotta keep my sleeping record above 50%. Lol
