- I realize that I'm so happy doing what I'm doing right now, that I'm scared about the future
- Showering in the morning hurts because the water is so hot and I'm so cold
- My eyes close when I'm on the road and God still manages to make sure that i don't die
- People at work treat me so equal I forget I'm 10 years younger than most of them
- No matter how hard you try, things still manage to go subliminally wrong
- I sit in front of the TV, and realize that between Foxtel, free TV and my box-set DVDs,
i don't have anything new to watch.
Okay. Random thoughts I know. But my mind's been filled lately with all sorts of bloated thoughts which seem to make it into my head, but never out. Yay for me though. I've finally gotten back into a stable routine, and since classes are out until the beginning of August, things are fantastic.
There are a few exceptions to that rule however (suprize suprize). So without going into any detail here's a summary: one staff has taken 2/3 weeks extended sick leave (without actually being terribly sick - go figure), one staff has been terminated, and another has been hospitalized. Cumulate that with a potential resignation of a supervisor in our department, we have quite a situation on our hands! But anyway, perseverance is the key I suppose, so we're all gonna have to stick through this.
*okay i give up. i'm not made for grammatical blogging*
if you didn't notice...... for once i was actually using caps. hahahahah. such a joke.
dum dum dum. okay. so heaps of stuff has been going on lately. obviously, exams. which omg. international marketing was horrible (as expected). the questions were expectedly vague... and i'm pretty sure i didn't answer at least one of the questions right, due to a horrible misunderstanding. OH WELL. bus stats was funnier. only because i had studied so hard for intl. marketing, that by the time i had to study for stats - i was totally out of it. so... i feel like i didn't study very hard. but in any case, i still finished the exam early and left (only because i just seriously couldn't be bothered even checking through my answers). oh and for one question, i just couldn't decide if it was a matched pair or independent question... so i did independent first, then finished the rest of the exam. i then came back to the question and made a hasty decision that i was wrong, so i erased my entire answer. i then attempted to answer the question as a matched pair. but to my despair - i couldn't do it. SO. i erased that answer (of which i had gotten half way through), and re-did it as an independent. after all that erasing, i couldn't even be bothered to read it all through again. so i got up and left. and i actually got "yelled" at by the chief examiner - because no one saw me with my hand up, so i just got up and left and handed my paper in at the front of the class. she had the decency to knarkily snide and say that my paper would probably go missing because someone didn't come and take it from me when i was still sitting down - despite the fact that i had personally handed my exam to her. once again. go figure.
so with the intl. marketing and stats over, that leaves me to talk about public policy. i've only got one incredibly unintellectual adjective to describe it. oh and it's 3 letters too. G-A-Y. that's it. nuclear power and australia's automotive industry. *shudder*. i don't want to hear or read about the implications of policy in those industries ever again. i'm done. it's over. totally in the past.
after finishing exams, my one aim for this uni break is to seriously catch up on all my "social" activities! hahaha. i've been living like a cave-wo-man for the past 4 months. well.... a cavewoman with a credit card anyway. =p buttttt. i haven't been going out, i've been bailing on friends, saying no to dinners, not going to a small group, and have just generally been a hermit! but i am a hermit no longer i tell you! this weekend for me was testament to that - i got so tired, that i couldn't do anything on sunday night except sleep. it's all pretty crazy.
but anyhow, as usual, i've got photos from things that have happened recently... from my gramps' birthday dinner at jade, a to spotting a weird ass car name - by weird i mean bogus spelling, and then to a sad sad sad farewell to two good friends... =(
so here goes the picture stories:
my gramps is soooo funny. he's 90 this year - and no joke, he blew out the candles so fast (all at one go), so so so fast that i couldn't even take a picture of him doing the "blowing" face. LOL. now that's what you call S-K-I-L-L!
a family shot... everyone looks good - and then i had to go ruin the photo by having my eyes closed. and before any of you make a crack about my eyes... i know i know.
i so wanted to leave a note for the owner of this car... hahaha. but apparently my sis saw a BLOKE driving the car. that's even more questionable!! but seriously. it's P-H-E-E-B-S! get it rightttt! =p
now on to the sad farewell to felicia and derrik. this is incredibly sad because i only got to meet both of them at the beginning of this year. and it's such a pity because we all had SO much fun hanging out. the only thing that i'm not sad about is the fact that they've only gone home to KL... and something tells me that i definately going to see them again... after all, KL's so close to s'pore right? but anyway. here's my tribute to felicia and derrik.
i'm gonna miss both of you so much! but thanks for the absolutely awesome times and the funnnniest memories this semester. breadTalk wouldn't have been that much "fun" without you, and now every time i jong it, felicia - i'm gonna remember you. =p
and now for the photos:
[L-R: derrik, felicia, liz and me]
derrik and felicia... so sweet!
such posers huh. =p
and finally! our awesome burgers! i'm so glad i got another opportunity to whip up those patties.... mmmmm. craving. =p
soooooooooo. there goes my past couple of weeks, give or take 50 photos.. haha.
but yes. it's now time for me to plonk my butt in front of the TV before it's sleepy time. =p
till next time... jyaaaa!
