I banged my forehead into the wall last night. I woke up to pee and because I was too sleepy, I didn't really see where I was going and the next thing I know, "BANG!" A small bump on my poor forehead. I think it's the same spot as the other time in Perak when I bang my forehead in the limestone cave. But at that time, I had a boiled egg to rub. I didn't want to waste my eggs. I don't think it's so bad. Why does rubbing egg on bruises or bumps help???

Talking about egg, the egg(shells) here in US are white and the one in S'pore or Indo are brown.I have been wondering about this ever since I came here, but I just seem to keep forgetting to check it. Well, the bump helped in reminding me this and I just check it out in Wikiepedia.

"Egg shell color is caused by pigment deposition during egg formation in the oviduct and can vary according to breed, from the more common white and brown to pink or speckled blue-green. Although there is no significant link between shell color and nutritional value, there is often a cultural preference for one color over another. For example, in most regions of the United States, eggs are generally white; while in the northeast of that country and in the United Kingdom, eggs are generally light-brown."

Liverpool vs Galatasaray today. Can't watch :( Had lesson. ARGH!!! See, the good thing about having to wake up in the morning is that you will be able to watch the football match without clashing with school or work or anything, except your sleeping time! For Liverpool, a couple hours of sleep is okay! Go Liverpool!!! Keep up the winning streak!!!

I know what i want for my first "non-teenage" birthday. But since it is still a very long time to come, let's make it Christmas, New Year or whatever other occasion. The point is, I want Gerrard's autobiography. It hit the store for quite some time now, but I'm just got really really excited about it today. I think it's because I was just able to see the cover of the book (below) and read the some of the extract from the book. I want the book!!!!!!!!! Anyone kind enough to buy it and give it to me???

Synopsis


Steven Gerrard is a hero to millions, not only as the inspirational captain of Liverpool FC, but as a key member of the England team. Here, for the first time, he tells the story of his lifelong obsession with football, in an honest and revealing book which captures the extraordinary camaraderie, the soul-destroying tensions and the high-octane thrills of the modern game as never before. Born in the Liverpool suburb of Huyton in 1980, Steven first joined Liverpool as a YTS trainee and played his first game for the first team aged just 18. His career has gone from strength to strength ever since and he is now the team's captain and its lynchpin. Liverpool's incredible comeback in the Champions' League final in Istanbul in May 2005, recovering from a 3-goal deficit against AC Milan to win on penalties, is testament to the amazing power Gerrard has over his team. His presence on the pitch is a force to be reckoned with and places him amongst the very first rank of players in the world. A relatively private figure, Steven has rarely spoken out in public. Now, his legions of fans will be allowed an intimate glimpse of what makes their hero tick. He speaks for the first time about the torturous will-he-won't-he Chelsea rumours and his undying passion for Liverpool. We experience first-hand the highs of winning in Istanbul and elsewhere, as well as the occasional lows of being parted from his much-loved family and friends. And of course, the book contains a full blow-by-blow account of England's world cup campaign in Germany 2006. Steven Gerrard's book is the definitive football autobiography. Like its subject, it's honest, passionate and exhilarating. If Steven Gerrard isn't your hero yet, by the time you've read this he will be...

* if anyone kind enough to buy it for me (I hope there will be ), can you tell me??? I think I may buy it at the end of the month or next month ) Oh, can anyone help me check how much i cost in S'pore??? Want to compare prices. Thanks :)

I just found out that for my first maths exam, I only get 95/100. *sob* I thought I could get full marks. It was really easy!

This is the question that I get wrong

Use your answer from part a) to predict the revenue from sales of the printer in 2006.
(each question is worth 5 points! It's not because of the level of difficulty but because the prof can only squeezed 20 questions into a sheet of paper because he only wanted the exam to we in a sheet of paper, 2 pages)

Here is the full questions
-Revenue by Hewlett-Packard from sales of a model of printer were $2.25 million in 2000 and $3.77 million in 2005.
(3 decimals, include units)

a) The average yearly rate of change in revenue during these 5 years was
$0.304million/yr

b) Use your answer from part a) to predict the revenue from sales of the printer in 2006

My method: 0.304 x 6 (WRONG)!!!
It should be: 3.77 + 0.304 !!!

ARGH!!!!!!! I was wondering why the revenue for 2006 was so little, but i checked again and the question asked to use the answer in part a) and calculate the revenue for 2006, so it should be times 6 and ya, BIG MISTAKE! how stupid of me! *sigh* No point crying over split milk!

There's no sociology lesson today. Ms Hough sent us email at midnight to tell us that monday's lesson is cancelled as she had something urgent to attend to. But Sung and I decided to check if they were anyone in the class. May be we are supposed to be in the class to discuss the research project that she asked us to discuss. Well, it's the first time we had a cancelled lesson, so we didn't really know what to do. We didnt' want to go, but how if we were supposed to be in the class for discussion or something. As it turned out, everyon, except us, who came was those who didn't check their email. After waiting for 15min, someone checked hers and they knew why they waited so long and so few people came and there's no teacher. After knowing this, they quickly left. And for some reason, I was tickled pink by this. I was laughing till my stomach hurts and I didn't really know why. Well, I decided to stay in the class and do my english homework. Didn't know where else to go. THe library would be filled with people so would the cafeteria. It's lunch hour.

It's monday tmr. School :( It's so boring! Everyday, you just attend boring lectures and then go home and the cycle continues. Then come weekend and that means work! Cleaning hotel rooms! ARgh!!! Life of a student. But if i'm working, my life would be pretty much the same, no? Everyday, you go to office and do the same monotonous things again, like kokogi and papa. Life is boring. or is it not?

But i do learn things. Like coal is a chemical sedimentary rocks and basalt is an aphanitic, mafic igneous rocks. As it has fine grains, formed from hardened lava(near or on the surface of the Earth) and consists of Potassium, Sodium and Calcium. Amazed? I'm amazed at myself too for being able to remember this stuffs :D In Sociology, on friday, we're discussing feminism. I will talk about this next time. Lazy! Sleepy! Off to dreamland! Oh ya, last two days, I actually dreamt of Gerrard. He and his family were actually staying in a hotel which I work in as a housekeeper. Then, I knocked on this door and he opened it! He asked me to come into the room and cleaned the room. He and his wife helped me make the bed and then all of a sudden, I was playing with Lilly-Ella. Haha... weird dream.

Friday, September 22, 2006

Yeah! Liverpool won!!! :) Alonso's goal from liverpool half was so terrific!!! Unbelievable! Only the best from the best team could do that!!! After losing to chelsea, it's time for a winning streak Liverpool!!! Wanted to watch the match but I have to work on TUE morning!!! ARGH!!!!!!! Do you know how long I haven't watch soccer (the full 90min of soccer)??? Since the last world cup final! At least I could watch the Champions league in S'pore! And even if I could catch a match on the net, it always clashes with work or lesson!

Finally, my two tests are over!!! What a week! But I have to work for the weekends and on Tuesday :(

There's a tornado warning signal in Stillwater!!! It hasn't reach Stillwater yet (and hopefully will never come!!!) but it's approaching from the southeast of Stillwater. It was bright and sunny today, but yesterday was a wet, windy,cold day. It rained almost the whole day and what's worse was that there's this strong wind and it really made walking difficult. Hope tmr will be bright and sunny too, unlike what the weather forecaster said. Weather forecast can be wrong, right? In fact, it's wrong most of the time.

For the BUS orientation discussion class, we had a "value auction". We're given a list of criteria, like high earnings, environment, etc, that we look for in a job and we rank them. Then we have to bid for it. Each of us was "given" $5000. It's so lame!

I received an email from someone named Yueying! Haha... Yes, yueying, you writing the email in third person is definitely entertaining. Well, good luck for your Promos! In fact all the best to everyone who is having/ going to have their Promos!

I feel bored:( I should really join some organization. But I don't know which organization to join. There's over 300 organizations in OSU and I still don't know which one. Can you believe it? I don't want to join an organization that I THINK will like and later ended up dreading every moment of it, like joinig Art Club in ZHSS!

Time to sleep. Gotta work tmr :(

Elementary Calculus Exam tmr. I feel calm. I feel very confident, actually and because of this, I'm worried! The irony! I mean, I have revised and almost 90%of the stuff going to be tested, i have learnt before. It's like no brainer! But I have this huge problem with nerves and this problem always, always come in my way, especially with Maths. In PSLE and in O level! I hope I will read the questions properly and not make unnecessary careless mistakes!!! If I didn't get A or close to full mark score, I will be so embarrased. I have a high expectation on my maths!!! It's been my best subject!!! I hope i did well. Ok, I shall not think about this and pressurize myself! Canthini, it's only a small exam!
Speaking of exam, my Geology exam is coming this Friday and I haven't really done my proper revison yet! 50 MCQs. From experience, mcqs proved to be harder(to score) than essay :( But the good thing is, I don't really have to memorize whole chunk of info. I just need to roughly get the meanings of the concepts and hope the options are not very close and get the corrert answers!

Anyway, I have to work today :( Had to clean 14 rooms!!! LUckily all are stay-over and 3 guests didn't need any service :) While I was cleaning my 9th room, Tommy, the manager ( I'm not sure for his position but he's the "head" of housekeeping section.) came to give me some face towels, and he said that I was very soft-spoken. He could never tell if I were angry with him, or if I were happy. "I couldn't tell. You're so mild. Not that it's bad. It's good actually. You're nice and polite, but..." Ok, so basically, he wants me to be more out-spoken. But I'm shy. I'm only outspoken and loud with people I know very well. Just aske my family and some of my close friends. I keep strangers, acquaintances and just friends at arm's length. May be it's because I'm not so comfortable in their presence. But, yes, I must change. I must be more out-spoken. I must speak up!!! I'm here to change for the better!


"I always suspected his diet would be the death of him..."

This is a cartoon strip from my college newspaper regarding the Ecoil virus in spinach. The death of Popeye. I'm sure I don't need to explain what happen right? I actually bought a bag of spinach from the Walmart. I nearly cooked it, but for some reason, I decided not to cook it and leave it in the fridge. A few days later, the news about E coil outbreak caused by spinach, bagged spinach, came out. Sung and I decided to throw the bag of spinach in the fridge away. It's a waste really, but better be safe than sorry. What a close shave! If I cooked it at that time, would I be sick now? Better not to think of it. I'm fine and healthy. That's what important!

Busy weekends!!! So much homework! English- essay, journal and reading about marriage. Sociology- feminism and there are 2 exams this week. Elementary Calculus and Geology. I'm not so worried about Elementary Calculus, but i'm very worried about Geology. So much stuffs to study!!!!!!!!! It's going to be mcq, but from past experience, mcqs prove to be more difficult than essay. I hope I made it!

It's football weekened. And I remembered to bring my camera :)

Look at all those RVs! It looked like a small village!


The cowboys won again! 48-8. Well, the team they're playing against Florida Atlantic Owls had lost their previous two games 33-6 in total. What do you expect? I still don't understand all these craze about COLLEGE football. Let me emphasize it again, College! Football. *shake head*

Anyway, say this picture on lfc website


A liverpool bedroom. I don't mind sleeping in it for a night or a week, but more than that, I'm afraid I would have a nightmare. All red!

Liverpool drew 0-0! :( Gerrard started on the bench!!!

"Rafael Benitez made it clear after Liverpool's 0-0 draw away to PSV Eindhoven in their opening Champions League Group C match that not even Steven Gerrard can be certain of a place in the side.

The Anfield skipper was one of six players axed from the side that lost the Mersey derby to Everton on Saturday, and Benitez explained: 'Steven was on the bench as were several other senior players, Xabi Alonso, Peter Crouch, Sami Hyypia, but people only mention Gerrard.

'We must accept that nobody can play at 100% for every match, it was a very difficult game against Everton and you can see that the players who were involved for all that game were on the bench.
'If you are not 100% fit and ready then you will be rested like that. It will happen to different players.' "

I think Benitez is trying to build a side that will be strong without gerrard. He's trying to erase the "one-man team brand off Liverpool. Well, liverpool had been pretty much a one-man team. Gerrard won the CL and FA Cup for liverpool. While I agree with the motive of his action, I have to disappointed that he doesn't really consider it carefully. Liverpool without Gerrard, Alonso, Hyypia??? No wonder they played so badly. I think Benitez have to make the change slowly not abruptly like this. It does liverpool no good!!! Then again, he's the expert.

I was able to watch the first 25min of the match live on the net :D Saw Gerrard on the bench. Haven't seen him on TV for a long long long time (almost 3 months, the last being the world cup). So I was so happy to see him again. But I could be happier if he's playing instead of warming the bench. Honestly, the away yellow jersey didn't look that bad! Not sure if it's because of the color quality.

I had the most interesting Business orientation lecture ever! The speaker was good!!! He entertained the audience with his great sense of humor. We're talking about the how to success in college. First, it's all about perception. If you look neat and presentable, people (your professors and other students will have a good impression on you. If you are nice to your prof. he or she might give you a good result for your exams!) He gave example of two authors. One is the authro who wrote "man is from mars and women is from venus" and the other one is the author who wrote about why marriage succeed and fail. The former wrote based on experience whil the latter wrote based on his research of following 2000 couples for 20 years and he can predict with 94% accuracy if your marriage will work out just by talking to you. The speaker said, "Impressive isn't it? He can predict with 94% accuracy if your marriage will work out just by talking to you! But it's unfair too. Because when it didn't work out, who's to blame? Your spouse. For example, he's a loser, he's always drunk... But the thing is you picked him. He wasn't sent to you. YOu wasn't being forced to married him. You chose him! So who's fault is it now?" The next thing is that "college is a scam". Many college graduates can't find a good job, many don't find jobs related to what they studied... Successful people like Bill Gates, Steve Job, Donald Trump, didn't graduate from college but they are more successful that those who graduate! But, they are smart and ambitios. So even if college is a scam, you should not drop out of college but make the most of your college education, joining organization,etc. Because, who will get the better impression college grads or college drop out? Well, the talk was really more entertaining that how I wrote it.
Before he ends his presentation, he shared with us the 3 keys to happiness- self-delusion, hyprocracy, ignorance. Self-delusion. I think I know everything, but the truth is I don't know anything! For example, he said that half of us are below the average. And many of us may think that "well, that can't be me. I'm above average!!!" Self-delusion. Ignorance! Then, he proceed to say that many smart students will always say that they flunk the test or they did badly for the test right after they take the test! Because they tend to take things seriously. They are worried because of a few questions that they do not know and because of that, they think they will fail the test. ANd in the end, they still get A! Smart and successful people are people who are worried all the time, who say that they don't know anything, who will blame themselves for their own failure. And those not so smart people tend to be confident about their own ability! They will say that they know everything, but fail the exam. See, if you're confident, things won't go your way. But when you're low in confidence, you did well. So should we be confident or not in order to success???

ANyway, he continued to say at the end of class, there would be evalutation sheet that students will have to fill in. And he will compete with his collegues to see who have the highest evaluation points and he always win. He said that his collegues will give students handouts, clues for exams to gain the favour of the students, especially the "morons". But for him, he would give the evalution sheets during the final exam. The "morons" will feel confident after taking the exam (because they feel that they know everything and they will excel in the exam) so they will give the professor good evaluation. Even if they fail their exam, it will be too late to change the evalutation! haha... smart! He also mentioned about people complaining that they're not a good test takers. He said that there's no such thing as bad test taker. Lousy baseball player, yes. The ball may be too high or too low or your coordination is bad. Yes, I get it. But in test, the answers don't move. It stays there. You're not a lousy test takers. You're a lousy answer getters!
The whole lecture theare was so lively today! If only every lecture or talks are like this!

who am I?

I AM?

My sociology teacher wrote these 2 words on the blackboard and asked every student about this. When it's my turn, the only word that came out of my mouth is, "i'm Indonesian." There's a guy who came out with the "correct" answer based on the sociological meaning. "I am who you perceive me to be". We are the product of our interaction with other people. Our identity changes everytime we interact with different people. How my parents see me is different from how my friends see me.

I learnt two new sociological terms, looking glass self and generalized other. LOOKING GLASS SELF is basically the way you think others see you. If I am your looking glass, how do you think I perceive you?GENERALIZED OTHER is the way you think others expect you to act. Our society, our culture is the generalized other. For example, some societies think premarital sex is taboo and no one in that society is expected to have premarital sex. Erving Goffman coined the term IMPRESSION MANAGEMENT- a process by which people control how others will perceive them. He "regarded everyday interaction as a series of attempts to con people". To him social interaction is just "a big con game". It's true. Whenever we interact, we try to act 'not ourselves' as we want to impress others. We want to THINK that we have leave a good impression on them.

Hmph... may be that's why I hate to interact because I hate acting and I'm not a good actress. Haha...

I start to like the subject again. Although it takes sometime to fully understand the meaning of the sociological terms, the subject is very practical. Sociology is all about our everyday live, about human behavior. And that's about how I behave. I just have to look at myself and the people around me , and I could instantly apply what I have learnt. I also learn more about my behavior, my interaction, my mindset. Sociology is so enlightening! No?

Liverpool LOST to Everton! 3-0!!! 3 to NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh my!!!!!!!!! How could they lose???????? It's a derby!!!! They're the king of the Merseyside!!!!! Everton played well though and they converted all the chances they had unlike Liverpool :( Well, it's a derby! You have to raise your standard. You're trying to prove who's the better side in the same territory. What I don't like about derby is that things can get really dirty!

Hope the REds could put their defeat aside and beat PSV tmr! Go liverpool!!!

Yesterday was real busy. Tonnes of homework. For the first time since i studied here, I had that much homework!!! Mostly sociology. Have to read articles and answer some questions (which were difficult as I don't really get what she's asking and she kept asking for examples from the article. And I gave almost the same exapmles for every question), and there were english journal and some readings too and then Math.

Then, I washed my clothes!!! Planned to wash early in the afternoon but SOMEBODY delayed it. Saying, "later lah, wash now for what?" Hello, he's going to play soccer in like half an hour time and he still dun want to wash his clothes? I didn't know if he planned to wash his clothes in the evening after his soccer but I didn't want to wash them that late. Besides, I couldn't stand the sight of my laundry anymore! I need to wash them!!! So in the end, I just couldn't stand it anymore. I told him that if he's not washing his clothes now, then I would go and wash mine first. He still said why i want to wash the clothes now. It's 4 o'clock in the evening already!!! *frustrated* He's REally testing my patience!!! Worse than my brother!!! I don't know why i always compare him to my bro. May be because he's a guy *shrug* But if he's my bro, i will nag and nag and nag at him, and he can't complain because i'm his big sis and i have the right to nag at him!!! Haha... I guess my bro and sis are so happy now that i won't boss or nag at them anymore! Hmph... may be i should call them often and nag on the phone! Haha...

I only worked for one day this week. Didn't earn much :( But it's good too because my homework filled almost the whole of sunday, so if I worked i will be so tired!!!!!!!!!! It's football weekends next week. I have to remember to bring my camera! Oh, talking about football, OSU won two in a row. I couldn't remember the score for their last game, but they won. Ok, good for them. As an OSU student, I'm proud and happy that they won. But other than that, I couldn't care less. Still feel weird saying football and it means American football, not soccer.

Actually, kokogi wanted to bring us to Tulsa on Saturday, but i had to work :( I was tempted to not go for work and go to Tulsa, but I couldn't be so irresponsible. I'm the employee and I had this restposiblity to report to work when I was told to! *sigh* i have never been to Tulsa!!! ARGH!!! My turn will come one day!

Today is the 5th anniversary of 9/11. By the way, it's called 9/11 because of the media. US gov or President Bush didn't created the name for the unfateful day, the media did. See how powerful the media is? Anyway, my two cousins, tomtom, was interviewed by the school newspaper about when and where they were when this happened and what they think about the immigration process after 9/11. Haha... They were so excited about this!
I was P6 then and I learnt about this the next morning ,a day later than most people. I heard my classmates talked about this and I thought the World Trade Centre in Singapore had just collapsed. I realised how silly and ignorant I was when I reached home and saw what happened on tv!!! Should have followed the news more closely.

My dad's going to have an operation tmr :( I hope everything will going smoothly. I know it's just a small operation to get rid of the lump in his left hand, but it's still an operation. It may be it's the myth about operation, but i'm really worried and i really really hope that everything will going smoothly.

I received a letter from deng lao shi!!!!! *grin* I'm so over the moon when I saw the letter on the table. I quickly ripped it off and read it. She even enclosed 3 chinese articles for me to read :) Once a teacher,always a teacher! But i'm happy to receive the article because I haven't been reading Chinese stuffs for a while now. It's good to get in touch with the language again :) Her letter doesn't have stamps on it. It's some kind of electronic sticker :( But on a second thought, it may be good because if there are stamps I would be very tempted to take them off and I definetely want to keep the envelope. It's my first letter :)

I really have to try not to put the word "homesick" or anything related to homesick on my msn nick, especially now that my dad has an msn account. I don't want to worry him. THe last time I put it, my dad kept asking me how come I still feel homesick and what they can do to make me feel better. So... yup, i will only express my homesickness here in this blog! My dad doesn't know this. It's "safe" for now.

Today, the korean guy(exchange student) in my english class , I just knew that his name is Joon YOng, but he told me to call him JJ, which is very weird. SHouldn't it be JY? I wonder if traslated to Chinese, his name will be Jun Yang? He's purposely picked on me. The teacher was telling us some things to do for our B draft and he didn't understand what she's saying and kept asking me. Unfortunately, I also didn't get what she meant, so I told him that I also don't know. Then, he lamented, " how come you don't know anything!" I quickly defended myself!!!

THen, I asked him if he liked soccer. He didn't get what i'm saying. I said, "you know soccer?" He replied, "soka?"
Me:" NO, soker"
He:"Soka?" and start to clasp his palms together doing the ami to fu thingy.
I started to laugh and got frustrated! So I decided to write the word SOCCER down on a piece of paper.
He:" Oh, sucker(He really pronounced it like the word sucker! NO kidding!"
Me:" ya! Soker!"
He:" NO, you said soka, soka means buddha!"
we were laughing very hard till the teacher told us off for being to noisy. But could anyone blame us?

I think that's the most humorous thing ever happened in the class for the fall semester!

Sociology exam was so difficult. I don't understand most of the questions. And the options for the mcqs are so difficult to comprehend either. I totaly blew it off :( *sob*

Monday, September 04, 2006

So he's sick today. And today, I planned to vacuum the apt. And he so happened to be sick. And I didn't really care and still don't really care. I was more interested in tidying the dirty apt. It totally irritate me and I couldn't stand it anymore. The dirt on the carpet. It's more or less his fault!!!!!!!!! He totally doesn't care about keeping things tidy and in order. I'm the one who cook, who wash the dishes because he will usually leave it on the sink to rot, the one who take the effort to at least keep the apt. clean... And he still has the audacity to tell tomtom and kokogi that I bullied him. I don't care if it meant to be a joke! I just feel unjustly treated! Hello, look who's doing all the job? Just because I'm a girl doesn't mean it is expected in me to do all the cleaning and stuff! This is a 21st century. I may not be a total believer of total equality of man and women(admit it, man and woman are created differently. They are certain things that man can do and woman can't and vice versa. But I still believe that at least there should be some equality in man and woman! Like man should do the cleaning, cooking... ) Yeah, I'm angry and I think that's explain why I don't really care much about him even if he's sick now! HEy, if he's sick he should look after himself too. I tell you what he did while he's sick. He sat in front of the com the whole day(doing God knows what!) and now, he's sitting in front of the tv watching some wrestling show. Does he sound sick to you? If he's really sick, he should be in bed and get some rest! If he doesn't even take care of himself even when he's sick why should I care? I'm not his mother! I'm not even his elder sister. Yeah, sure, I'm older than him and I should take care of him since he's sick. But I chose to not to care about him. If he can spent his day sitting in front of the com and tv while he's sick and not even make an effort to at least make himself feel better, why should I care? And if he could do all those stuff, i'm sure he's capable enough to cook his own porridge. He asked me to cook it for him, I ignored him. I said I don't know how to cook. Well, I really don't know. I can try but I don't want to! If he's my little bro, yeah, I would. I would nag at him the whole day for not resting and for not taking care of himself. But he's not and for Pete sake, we are of the same age, a few months different won't make such a great different, will it? Now, he even lower the temp. I'm freezing here!!!!!!!!! I'm so angry too with him for keep lowering the temp. making me freeze in the middle of the night, making my sleep to unsound! If he's hot then don't pull the blanket over himself!!!!!! Or buy a fan. I use two blankets and I'm still freezing!!!!!!!!!!!! See, I'm left freezing, I cook, I wash, I clean, I even have to "cui" him to get ready to leave the house for school (because he doesn't care about time as he expect me to keep track of it because he's too busy talking to his gf on msn) and when I nag at him too much, he's not happy, saying that i'm bossy. So now I chose not to care. WHo's sick? He is. And I got my own stuffs to do anyway! If I were sick, I will take care of myself! Anyway, I won't let it happen. I will drink lots and lots of water and liang teh when I know I'm in the verge of falling sick! It's not that I'm not sympathetic at all. At least I tell him to drink medicine, btw, I have to tell him which medicine he had to take. *roll eyes*

So tomtom and kokogi came just now to deliver the stuffs that I asked kokogi to help me buy. And they cooked porridge for him. THey were so excited with the cooking and stuff. Me? I chose to sit around not caring about anything. Kokogi even asked me to go to walmart tmr to buy some healthier food. Hello, I only have two hands and there are limitted number of things that my two hands can carry. And he also asked me to go to the Asian Foodmart to buy some pickle like things that u eat with ur porridge. Ok, I will be nice and I will go to buy the "pickle" even though I know he won't really eat it because it's not his fav. food! But I will still buy it because i'm a nice girl and if I didn't i will be scolded by my dear aunt. My parents won't scold me. If they do, I have enough evidence to defend myself!!! And may be I will go to the walmart to buy some vegie and fruits. But that's all. I won't buy much as I ONLY HAVE TWO HANDS!!!!!!!!!

So, yeah, I let anger got the better of me. But if you were in my position, I bet you would too. Besides, he spent his day sitting in front of the com and tv even though he's sick. He should be sleeping, resting, kompress his forehead with ice... I don't need to tell him this. I bet I won't even have to tell my bro this (actually, I would tell him that even before he himself will do it, because he's my little brother and I'm his big sister and even if he had made me angry, he's still my LITTLE brother. ) But he's not! And I'm only older than him by about 8 months! I'm totally fed up with him. Can't he act his age?

ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

England 5-0 Andorra!

Liverpool men scored 3 out of 5 goals!!!! Go Liverpool! I'm still supporting club over country. Y? Because I'm not a British,so why in the hell should I really put my heart and soul in supporting England? Crouch scored 2 and Gerrard scored the second goal! I hope Crouch will keep the goal coming!

Anyway, yesterday was football weekend. It was the start of college football. I should have bought my camera. The street was "flooded" by supporters wearing their striking orange shirts! There was stalls set up selling foods and some merchandise. What an atmosphere! And to think this is only a College event! Come to think of it, without this event, there won't be much life in stillwater! So at least such event will bring some fun and excitement to the otherwise dull city of Stillwater.

There was some confusion over the housekeeping schedule because we're paired up and we were to clean 4-5 rooms by 2pm and then we will be given another list of rooms to clean after 2! These "after 2 rooms" were the footballers rooms. I was shocked to know that there were so many players in a team. I think there's about 40 players. Wow! I still think it's a complete waste of resources to let the players stay in a hotel! Well, the OSU team trashed Missouri state 52-10! I think Missouri state was a darn lousy team otherwise how could they lost to OSU which I heard are already very lousy?

I don't know how this football game is played. I want to watch the opening of the game next year. I mean I'm in america, so i should at least watch a football match once in my stay here, and suck in the atmosphere which i really wish would have been this intense during the world cup! So, I still have a year to comprehend the game. I don't want to go to the game and don't know what's happening. Waste money!
