Christmas time sure is busy for almost everyone. I wish I am back home to go holiday but I chose to stay back in NZ. I thought I would find a temporary job. Sigh, so far I have not found any temporary job besides my boss calling me to work in January.
I have had advice from friends and cousins on reflecting on things. I kept them in mind but keep forgetting to think more.
One thing is, I started getting more busy since last week. Besides working on a casual job for the graduation ceremony, I cooked and did some housechory stuff. I rarely have time to sit down and go online freely. I mean, I do go online with the mind of checking emails and chatting to my family. I felt that I haven't been keeping a good contact with them. I know I do not call them so I chatted to them on instant messaging instead. It is quite expensive to call and speak verbally. Wait, I should use skype to talk and webcam-ing with them. Well, that will have to wait till January since all of us will be a little busy with holidaying and enjoying ourselves.
Right, I should stop babbling now. I just finished making cheesecake from late morning to early afternoon. This was my first time making cheesecake without any help. I think I estimated the ingredients too much. It is trial and error afterall. I know now what to do and what not to do.

A reason
I guess everything happens for a reason. I was still hoping that the company called me to say that they still want me to work. But it wasn't them, it was my boss from card centre, asking me if I could work throughout January. Hmm.. at least I will have a job and something to do. I was going to volunteer myself to work for someone just to get work experience. =)

Another rejection
Well, I have nothing to say for myself except feel pity. I did not get any call back about any job offer so I guess that is the end of the first interviews rejection even though the interviews went well. I guess I will have to try again. I did read somewhere that even though interviews went well, it does not mean that you will get the job. Yea, I guess so. I shouldn't put too much high hopes for myself. I did tell myself that but after the second interview finishes, I can't help feeling that way. Well, anyway, I am not that upset anymore. It is just another rejection. I will have to try again.

I am inspired
Hmm.. weekend was great. I think I am going to appreciate weekends more when I start the working life. I went for a second interview this morning and I think it went great though I do not know if I am going to be hired. Well, I am not going to think about it now. I will let God decide for me.
Anyway, I had to walk to the mall to take the bus to city early in the morning. Only then, it struck me that this is working life. I would have to wake up this early everyday (maybe feeling tired and sleepy) to go to work. I thought, well I am just going to sleep early every night then. If I do get this job, it is a part time job. The HR manager told me that the job could turn full time after 3 months. He also told me some inspiring stories that made me decide to take up the challenging job even though he warned me it is very challenging. I was thinking, what job is not challenging but yea, I like to try it out.
Dad has told me about how he started out and I thought that I would do the same too and rise up to become like him. I do want to be successful like him and I know I can do it. It is the inspiration, you know. Oh the HR manager ask me if I ever thought of wanting to work in what I have studied. I told him honestly, there are not a lot of geology jobs in NZ and that I am willing to change my future career. I explained more but now I cannot remember what I said.

Language
I think I am starting to regret not spending time to learn reading or writing Mandarin. As I search around the student jobs site or any other websites, some of the jobs requires being good at speaking Mandarin and able to help customers with banking or anything. But I cannot see how I would be able to force myself to learn about the language. I would probably cry while writing out the Chinese words. I was told before that I did do that when I was 5 and my mum do not want stress me more. Yup, I understand that. I guess it is just my willingness to learn the language. Hey, if you ask me to learn now, I would be reluctant. I guess I am not much of a language person. I would learn if I have to though. First of all, I need the motivation.

Right or wrong
My hands are so dry from not putting lotion after doing dishes. I should really get a hand lotion. Otherwise my hands will start to wrinkle before I reach 25. =(
I think my CV and cover letter is not good enough hence no news from potential employers. =S I am going keep improving. I went to Careerhub for help. I also asked how long I can use as a graduate. I have 2 years to find a permanent job then.

A hobby to take in
So results were out on Friday evening and I am just so happy that the study life is over. =) I am happy to receive greetings from friends in facebook regarding results. =P I think I might just enjoy life for a bit before I start my job hunting hard out. It is also just because the holiday season is here so I do not think there will much jobs advertised too.
I started gardening with my friend on Saturday and it went quite well, taking the weeds, putting compost and planting the vegetables while chatting up my friend. I like it how I can get a friend to catch up doing something that we have in common, eg gardening. =)

Moving
Moving makes me so tired and frustrated if I am by myself. But if I have companion, we will just keep talking and make sure each other are ok. My new flatmate helped me to move bigger and heavier stuff and a friend helped me to move medium stuff. Then, I moved for about 4-5 rounds again, leaving the bigger stuff for darling and I to move again later. It should be finished by tomorrow afternoon. Hopefully.

Ignore me, I am being weird
I have a confession. I still do like to go clubbing in town. But there is no 'teman' to go with. You need the mood to enjoy. Actually, you don't necessary have to go clubbing in town. Create a mood with loud music and prepare some food and drinks. Turn the place into a night club mood. Hehe.. I have a super good speaker which I have want to turn up to the loudest volume. What am I talking about? I should be over this.
Ok, whatever I just said. Ignore!

Amazing. I blogged more than the usual. Well, I think it's just the time I had. No more study. 2 more weeks before results coming out.
Nervous and scary.

Reading
Reading something that interest you always makes you feel good about the story as it does to me. I usually get very hung up over the storybook. If I get disturbed halfway, my mood follows the story plot. If the story plot had the woman or man in anger, you tend to find me angry and annoyed. Yea.. I have always been like that.
I just finished reading The Boleyn Inheritance last week and I wanted to continue reading the trilogy. I have read The Other Boleyn Girl but forgot how the story plot is like so I went back to watch the movie. I love the way they phrased their English. It's funny how these things are literature and I don't like literature. Well, I think I just don't like to write essay or study too deep about it. I prefer to read or study them in my own interest.

Tidy first then relax
I am meant to tidy up more today but I am feeling so lazy and just want to sit in front of the computer watching series or reading story books or even finishing up the cv. Sigh.. I really have to drag myself to do this. Right.. I will be right back to blog again later.

Careers
So I went to the careers hub today for help.
Brought my cv and cover letter along. It's not bad, gave me tips and more stuff to improve and more things to look for jobs. It's basically like a recruitment for students which is good. I also attended the seminars to gain more knowledge about going for interviews. I already booked for more. =P
Yay.. something to do.

Waiting
You know what, one good thing about having more than one monitor is that you can watch series/movies while checking your emails or blogging away. Yup, at this point, I am doing exactly what I just said.
The days are longer to pass by when you have absolutely nothing to do. I'm just waiting for my job applications to come back to me. I applied most of them on Friday and Saturday and today is only Sunday.
Oh the sun is out already. It's getting warmer.

Hello working world, good bye study
I am back into the blogging world, blogging things away. =P
Well, at least I am trying to find some part time job tosupport earn some money for the future. Well, it's not just that. I think I should gain some experience before I go into a permanent job.
It's frustrating that those permanent jobs application rejected you because you are not experienced enough. Hello.. I am a graduate, should expect that. But I am willing to learn and be trained. I will surely try my best to pick up faster. It's my job to to do that. Isn't it right?
Well, I shall go browse around now. =)

My interest
I used to like to collect coins from countries around the world. And because I was still young and don't travel much, I depend on my dad who travelled to give me the coins to keep. It's quite interesting to see how different coins from countries. Some are gold colour and some are silver colour.
I think it is quite hard to find rare gold coin nowadays. I think you have to research for companies that sells coin gold.
Monaco rare coin is one company that you like to check out if you are into buying or exchanging gold coins. Somemore, it is a global market that deals which has experience and expertise.
I wish I still have the interest but I think I am over collecting coins. But for those who has interest, don't hesitate otherwise you will miss your chance.

Sweet dreams
One might ask me why I didn't bother to update the shared blog but manage to update my own. Well, I trusted the members would update so I am not that worried about leaving it stranded and untouched for few weeks or months. =P For own blog, no one can update for me so I should update it. =)
Somemore, I don't want to pollute shared blog with my rants. No one should want to hear about others' rant. They have their own problems. Am I not right?
Yea, there it goes. I am going to rant here since my other blogs refused to let me rant. I am quite sick of memorizing. I think I shall memorize the important facts and only thought of writing down in exam room. I tend to write down proper sentences and just memorize the whole thing. That way, I don't have to waste any seconds thinking about what words I needed to write down.
I get so restless now but am forcing myself to study afterall this is the last one.

Worried
It's November already. First day of November and I feel so tired and sleepy. I was supposed to wake up to study but I fall asleep halfway through studying. I need strong drinks to keep me awake. Tea no longer makes me awake. Now I drink tea at night and I still fall asleep after that. The tea caffeine no longer helps. I should really try the coffee one but I think the drink will remain after the first sip or could end up at the toilet bowl.
Sigh.. maybe taking energy drink would help. It's only another one week and a half till the last exam.
Sometimes I feel like I don't have enough time to study and rush myself then when I thought about it, I actually do have enough time. Is it because I get paranoid by it? Sigh.. This afternoon and evening, I shall try to finish one topic of all the exam questions.
I am getting worried. But I believe God will guide me.

One down
One down two more to go.
I answered the best I can so hopefully everything will be fine. At this point, I just hope for a pass.
What's important is that I finish off this degree and it's one step forward in life.
Eeeii.. it just means that I am getting old.
Right, I shall start studying for the next two. The next one is one and half week time and the last one is exactly two weeks from now. I think I have almost finish reading my notes and starting off on the questions part. There's still some stuff that I don't understand and I need to ask the lecturer. Sigh..

nervously waiting
I am between freaking out and non-freaking out. My exam is tomorrow afternoon.
I am trying to memorize everything that I have been learning for the past 4 months.
And there's so quite a bit to do after my exams on Tuesday and then start to do more reading and more exam questions for the next two exams. I know it's not much but as usual, I am just being paranoid and I want to do my best. My very best.
Sigh.. it's so hard to memorize all those model answers that my coursemates/friends written down. I have been spending a lot of time with my coursemates/friends and one of their girlfriend. Hmm.. I am not so aniti-social afterall.. well I am spending time with others as well. They're part of my life anyway. Right I shall head back to memorizing.

Lame reaction
Scared the life out of me when I was asked to play this maze game. My reaction was to cry. Darling commented lame and he had to pay the price of his mistake by staying with me 24hours. Well, it was his fault. =S
Anyway, study is going ok so far. But knowing me, I get worried and scared. I feel scared and nervous because it is apparently my last semester before I stepped into the workforce.

exams
Today is just the first full day of studying and already I felt sick and 'torture' from reading my notes and some journal articles. Sigh.. 3 more weeks to go.
Wednesday, 14 October 2009
Oh no
The thought of finishing uni for good.
It just dawned on me that this week is my last week going for classes.
That means exams are catching up fast.
Wow..
I better stop watching NCIS. Just the other day, I dreamt that I was in an investigation with the team, trying to catch someone.

Change
I didn't even realise that blogger blog post changes.
Anyway, I haven't blog here for quite some time. Since last week, things have been quiet. I feel good that I am relaxing but maybe I relax too much. I prepared my lab assessment practice since Tuesday and today, I am preparing for report. I have no idea how to 'word' them properly. Sigh.. it's not due soon but I prefer to get it done early and then keep adding or deleting stuff in.
Well, I will be going to another field trip later on today. This means more photos. Yay!!
Oh yea, restaurant city on facebook is quite addictive. I mean, I didn't exactly look at it every second. I just fed the employees and look after the restaurant. Darling kept track of the menu, trading and buying the ingredients. Waiting for it to level up...

October spring
Today is first of October. Time really pass fast.
Anyway, I am about to go off to a field trip this afternoon and the sun hasn't come out yet. I guess it's going to be cold later today. I think I will be wet and cold too. Sigh..
Ever since I come to uni, I have been hearing about people playing dota. I know it's some sort of online game but I am not sure what the game is about. Some of the friends that I used to hang out, they played this game almost every fortnight or weekly. It could be daily too.
Those who are very interested in this game will definitely be interested to know that the upcoming game is soon. Dota gamers would love to find our about this site, heroes of newerth. It's a forum discussion and I am sure you can find a lot of information from there.

Inspirational
"When I pick up a person from the street, hungry, I give him a plate of rice, a piece of bread. But a person who is shut out,who feels unwanted, unloved, terrified, the person who has been thrown out of society -- that spiritual poverty is much harder to overcome. Those who are materially poor can be very wonderful people. One evening we went out and we picked up four people from the street. And one of them was in a most terrible condition. I told the Sisters: “You take care of the other three; I will take care of the one who looks worse.” So I did for her all that my love can do. I put her in bed,and there was such a beautiful smile on her face. She took hold of my hand,as she said one word only: “Thank you” -- and she died. I could not helpbut examine my conscience before her. And I asked: “What would I say if I were in her place?“ And my answer was very simple. I would have tried to draw a little attention to myself. I would have said: “I am hungry, I am dying, I am cold, I am in pain, or something. But she gave me much more -- she gave me her grateful love. And she died with a smile on her face. Then there was the man we picked up from the drain, half-eaten by worms and, after we had brought him to the home, he only said, “I have lived like an animal in the street, but I am going to die as an angel, loved and cared for.” Then, after we had removed all the worms from his body, all he said, with a big smile, was: “Sister, I am going home to God” -- and he died. It was so wonderful to see the greatness of that man who could speak like that without blaming anybody, without comparing anything. Like an angel -- this is the greatness of people who are spiritually rich even when they are materially poor."

Life is beauty, admire it.
Life is a dream, realize it.
Life is a challenge, meet it.
Life is a duty, complete it.
Life is love, enjoy it.
Life is a promise, fulfill it.
Life is sorrowful, overcome it.
Life is a song, sing it.
I can't remember where I got this from. It was in my document files and I think I was supposed to put on blog. These words are very inspirational. Did I spell it right? Hmm... yea I just want to share these with my readers. :D

Raving about it
Sigh.. I had the time and the determination to tidy up the tags and categories in the main blog and the whole thing just decide to die during this time. I thought using computers in the campus network would be faster but no.. what a waste of my time. Yea I am a little free now. I thought of going to lab to work on the thin sections or the hand specimens to study for the lab test but there is a lab going there in the afternoons.
Now, this sudden urge to blog so much is in my head. But I had nothing to blog about. Yet though. Finals are coming up in 6 weeks time.
I kept raving about the finals coming up. Am I really that excited? I choose not to believe it though.

Paranoid
I want to feel a little free-r because I finished a lab test on Wed but I found out that I have another lab test in 2 weeks time. Being me, I always try to study first and prepare more. I got some of my lab assessment back and it wasn't too good. Maybe I expected too much. Well, that just tells me that I need to work more on this term's assessment. I don't want to mess up. I know I just want to pass but at the same time, I want to be able to get a better grade than my usual grade. Sigh..

Travelling around
I actually have been wanting a car since I came to uni. But each time, I kept telling myself that I can survive without one. But I still want one. I grumbled a lot when I go to supermarket and having to drag all the groceries back in the bus or walk back if I went to nearby supermarkets. I am not exactly ok with walking so much due to my field trips.
I don't exactly want to rent a car just to go to supermarket. It's stupid to spend the extra money on that when I can just take the bus or save the money just by walking. If I have companion or friends with me, maybe I won't compain so much.
Of course, car leasing is a good idea if you are travelling around. It's good idea if you are travelling around in South Island or North Island. There are so much sceneries to see and you would miss out a lot if you don't lease car. Somemore, this car leasing can deliver the car to your door. What a good idea. It is definitely worth it to check this website out.

Relax
I feel like I have been doing a lot of study during these 2 weeks break. Afterall, all the mid term breaks that I had was only one week or two weeks and during these times, I had other things to do. So I feel that this break I have done more stuff too. =)
Right.. I shall relax for the rest of the week before uni re-opens for the lectures.

Break is finishing
This week is the last week of the break before lectures started again. Then, in six week times, study break and finals are coming up.
You know it's not too late to enrol for college. If you are staying in the northern hemisphere, now is the perfect time to look for college to study your choice of degree. Or if you don't want that and just want to do some career training at community colleges, you can do that too.
For those who are staying in the southern hemisphere and looking to sharpen your skills in training or just want to study a degree, it's not too late for you. It's even better if you like to travel around and at the same time, experience new location.
Wow, there are so many College Degrees to look from.
I also browsed for my choice of degrees and I saw aerospace engineer. Sounds interesting. I actually wanted to study that in my first year. It's not too late I guess. Somemore, this university is probably offering degrees online. Even better, I don't even need to go there. I can choose to go to different state if I do decide to go. =)

Being punctual is good
Waiting for people is really torturing. I was meant to wait for someone to come pick up this stereo that I helped darling to sell and in the end, the person did not turn up. Ish.. wasted one hour of my time. Somemore, my flatmate was with me when she saw me waiting in front of the office. Also wasted one hour of her time. Right now, I look like I am in a good mood but once you ask me if something is wrong, I tell you, I am going to burst into anger, complaining about how people are not punctual and all that.
Actually, I never been stood up like that. I always get people coming late but not stood up. Now I know the feeling of being stood up and wasting of my time. I could have watch an episode or two on latest series that I have or did some study. Ish.. those precious time are now gone.
Oh I don't regret spending time with my flatmate, just talking about things and catching up since, I don't know when I last saw her.

theme songs
I was reading a friend's blog about G.I Joe theme songs. One of them was poker face by Lady Gaga and since I haven't listen to that song for a while, I decide to switch to it. Guess what thought came to my mind when I heard the song?
I can imagine myself in Doha. Did I really listen so much of the song when I was there? Hmm.. I might have since veep likes to put the song on music list that time. Last year, a friend told me that the song has no meaning and she doesn't like it. Well, I guess that's just individual music likes. Sometimes I do listen to the lyrics, sometimes I like the beat of the music and not just listening to the lyrics. I guess that's why some people don't like certain songs.
Right, I shall get back to reading over my lab notes. I have a lab test coming up after the break. It's supposed to be open book but I don't think my notes would help if I don't know how the minerals in the rock looks like. I don't like looking into the microscope because my eyes get painful after that. Right..

I used to...
.... wear a watch all the time till you can see the imprint of the watch on my wrist. I always worry about getting the battery going if it happens to stop when I don't want it to stop. I know that I don't wear it often now but I still look out for watches. Nowadays, the fashion of watches are getting more fashionable. I tell you, some people don't even wear it just for the sake of looking at the time. They probably wear it for the sake of fashion.
I particularly like the brand, Rolex. I know it's expensive but how about when they have discounts and offer the lowest price to customers? Do you think you would buy them? I think I would if I am looking for one. It's 100% genuine watches. With the three year warranty and free shipping, that's the best offer you can get. Oh, don't tell me you don't do online shopping, i am sure everyone has done online shopping before, right? So it should be easy to go to their website, check them out on the watches and buy them. www.bestoftime.com
So with this, you don't have to waste your time, going out to shopping mall to check on all the watches price and discounts. Plus, you can plan your Christmas shopping now. You can even buy them and keep them till then.

heater
It was funny that one of my flatmate accidentally caused the fire alarm to go on. It was just switching on her own heater and it smelled funny. The fire alarm decides to go off since the smell smells funny. This was at 2am in the morning. She had to borrow my heater after her heater was taken away as we actually weren't allowed to use our own heater. Well, the weather was cold and she cant really stand cold weather that well compared to me. I do get scared of cold weather but sometimes i like it. =)

Having own domain is good
I know that you have to pay in order to use your ow domain. But for those who have been blogging for so long, at one point, they want to have their own domain. Like me. I do want to have my own domain. You should check out this dedicated server hosting. It is harder to find the right web hosting, you know. You want to feel secure while you're using their web hosting, right? Who doesn't. I do. I should probably check it out too. Oh somemore, you can compare between the best hosting website. That way, you could save your budget and you can even get help from the web hosting if something goes wrong with the blog that you own. So why wait, get started today. I am going to check them out myself too. =P

Annoyed
I guess everyone has worries in their life. I don't know what worry is it this time that has been on my mind since yesterday. I have nothing to worry about on studies because it's going quite well at this moment. It's just this burden that I felt and I couldn't seem to get it away. It's so annoying to have this burden and not being able to figure out what it is.
I seem to be busy every morning. If it's not planning about what to cook for dinner, it will be washing laundry. If it's not, it's about studies. I have been going online less often too because of these. I also timed myself on all these too. Sometimes I feel that I don't have enough time. I complain too much. Everyone has 24 hours but everyone sleep at different time or have differences of sleeping time. I do know that I sleep less than most of the people I know so why am I complaining that I don't have enough time?

August
Reading cuz's blog that it's August already made me think that time really passes so fast. Half of the year is almost gone. Sigh.. I am happy to say that I passed my papers from last semester and am on my way to finishing uni for real. It's not over yet. I still have 3 more finals to go. Then, the real life begins. It is scary.

Driving test
It's safe to say that I had 3 driving lessons and pass my driving test. I said safe because I don't want to jinx anything. Not that I believe something like that but I prefer to see how it goes and then say that I finally got it instead of bragging about something and then never got anything out of it. Hehehe.. I know people may complain about it but that's just how I am.
Now, you know that I am sly huh... I can plan something and only tell you later. Let's just say I have personal reasons for those. Some people may not agree with me on my personal reaons but I don't see a point in having to follow every single reasons people told me. It will sound like I don't have my own mind and having to follow other people's opinions. I should have my own opinions and I should follow what I want to do. Right? :D

Best
Domain blog is down at the moment so I am here blogging.
I mentioned that I live in my own little world. Why? Well, basically, I don't know a lot of things on general knowledge. So I am living in my innocent world.
I probably sound sarcastic to myself and harsh too. Sometimes being harsh on myself made me change a little bit for the best.

I am boring
I think I am a boring person.
Why not? I find that I do babble or talk a lot about some stuff or even myself. Now, why would anyone else want to know about yourself? Friends sure want to know what has been happening in your life and also want to share with you about what has been happening in their life.
The thing is, I don't like silence, hence why I always try to fill the silence with babbling on. Why don't I like silence? It's because during this period, people around you or your friends can judge from the way you look, the way you dress, the way you have talked, how boring the topic you were talking about. They criticize you silently. Don't tell me no one has done this before. I am sure everyone has. Yes, I admit that I do that too. What a shame. But humans are not perfect so yea.. I guess I was just trying to avoid people from judging. I know they are going to do that eventually but just not in front of you, even in silence.
Besides, when you are catching up with friends, you are supposed to catch up, not sitting in silence. You are meant to be sharing with your friends too, not just letting them share with you. It should be a two-way friendship.
But anyway, I guess babbling too much is part of me. It would be hard to stop doing that. Maybe if someone ask me to stop talking? No, I don't think that would change me.

Friend
I probably never mention this. I think it was 3 or 4 months ago when a close friend of mine emailed me in facebook to tell me that one of our classmate in secondary school passed away from a car accident. I couldn't tell how I was feeling exactly but I sure felt that I went into shock for a few seconds before saying, oh my goodness. I never expect that to happen. So I login to friendster to find that she has so many messages on her profile. And oh, her boyfriend logs in every now and then to make sure the account doesn't expire. That was very nice of him to keep the memories alive. I left a message there and he replied in mandarin. Obviously, I can't read so I did not reply.
Yea.. I never knew that she was a Christian. I thought she was a free thinker. Sort of regret that I never quite get to know more about her. I mean, we knew each other, sat close to each other, talks a lot but we never get close in our friendship. We probably have something in common too. Well, hope that she rests well in peace and that she is happy in heaven.

Bumming
At this point, airports most likely have this checking temperature on passengers who either transits or stop at their final stops. That was what I was told if you go overseas. I haven't experience it because I haven't been out of the country. It was a good thing I decided to stay for the break. It's only for 2 weeks before lectures begin so I might as well catch up with my sleep and tidying up my room, which I already did. Now, I am just bumming around and watching tv programmes. Well, why not, after all the hard work for semester one. :D
Apparently, students who missed their exams are going to sit for their exams at the start of the semester two. I did went to all my exams so I don't have to worry about sitting my exams again. It must be a 'torture' studying and waiting for exam for so long. I know that some people may prepare even better and most likely get better grade than me. I did do my best so we'll see. So, the results are coming out on the 10th July. Hmm.. feeling nervous.. that's next week.
I did not know there was a Tamiflu and somehow, the recent outbreak of swine flu has cause PrimaMed to be in high demand for Tamiflu. I read from someone's blog about it. :D
So those who thinks that they are getting flu, look after yourself because flu can spread very fast between humans.

Series to watch
Day four of holidays passed and I already finished doing all the list to do so now I am staying in bed going online. :P Last night, I finished reading 4 chapters of my storybook. It's not that I am slow in reading. I was watching tv as well as reading. Oh there is this new series out on tv called Fringe. It's not that bad. Oh I should have mention this new series, Lie to me too. It's something like Bones but they are using pyschology though. They read people's emotions and how they react to something. Interesting how they can solve murders or mystery using that technique. I mean, does it work in real life? Would they caught the real killer if they use that technique?

Finished
Now that I finished my exams, I can relax. Oh, but I need to tidy up my room and vacuum it. Then, I am hoping that someone will come and replace the light bulb in my room because it doesn't work. I had to have the lamp on when I was studying because the light on the ceiling did not work. I was lazy to get them over to change it because it takes time to go to the website and the website wasn't working. The last two years ago, we don't have to do that. We just go to the office and get them to come up. Actually, now with the rent payment, I have to go to the main office which is about 10mins walk away.
I tell you, I can be very lazy when it comes to walking for quite long. Hmm.. but I guess I can bike over though. Not wasting my time or walking too long too. Hehehe..
Oh yea, I actually went to watch Transformer last night. It was good movie though plot too long. Darling and I went to watch on extremebase. I like how the sound system goes but it gives me headache though.

Two down
I had another exam yesterday morning so that's another one down. Two more to go. One tomorrow morning and another one on Saturday. I am not quite ready for Saturday because I am not satisfied with how I word my model answer questions. I need to ask for help. I am planning to ask another coursemate who did the course last year. I am hoping that she would help. Besides her, I know another coursemate doing the course with me so I am hoping to get some help from her.
I am so bad at writing essays but I am fine with getting the notes out and everything. Sigh..
I feel that I really need a holiday. I actually feel like flying somewhere, stay in a hotel and visit the city or something. Yea, that's called travelling. Oh I was telling someone that I don't want to travel as backpacker because I won't have the luxury of staying in a nice hotel and enjoy my holidays. I know that you get to go to more places but..
Anyways, I should really check out Accor Hotels City Super Sale. Wow.. I just checked out the prices. They have got really cheap hotel prices going on. Hmm.. that is really tempting me to buy and go on holiday. Hey, they also have cheaper hotels in my own country. Hehehe.. I can go back shopping. Muahaha.. I can stay at one of hotels that I book and shop at the shopping malls. Oh.. just thinking about the food that I will be having just made my saliva coming out of my mouth. Ok, that is gross and I won't elaborate about it. I shall think about this first though.

satisfied
Wow.. looking at my archives, I really have low blog posts for this year. Well, that's for having 2 active blogs. Hmm.. most of the time, it will be on the main one. This one: it's when I still feel like blogging but don't want to blog in the main one. Hehehe..
Anyway, I haven't consume tea so much nowadays but I switched to drinking energy drinks. Well, it's only for the mean time till exams finish. I think I did a lot of study today. I feel good. :D
I shall be writing down all the model answers and start memorizing them by tomorrow. :D I studied with my fellow coursemates. =)
Hmm.. what shall I eat for tomorrow lunch? Maybe I will eat bread.

Dream house
I am just taking my time while waiting for my hashbrown. I am hungry so I don't really feel like studying at the moment. I need my energy first. :D
Anyway, houses are quite important when a couple are ready to move in together. Be it married or just moving in together. Finding the right house is quite hard too. You can be choosy the first time as you wanted a perfect house for both of you. Maybe after 6 months down the road, you will change your mind and go for whichever available and good enough.
Real Property Management can help you to choose the right house. Let them do the research and come to you with all the available houses. I know sometimes doing your own research is good but it's going to take lots of time.
Good luck to all the couples looking for houses. :D
Anyway, houses are quite important when a couple are ready to move in together. Be it married or just moving in together. Finding the right house is quite hard too. You can be choosy the first time as you wanted a perfect house for both of you. Maybe after 6 months down the road, you will change your mind and go for whichever available and good enough.

Aaahh
Aaahh..
I just feel like screaming.
I am feeling the stress this since mid afternoon. I couldn't even concentrate on reading my stats notes. What is wrong?
I should be calm.
I don't think I study too much yet.
But then again, I have been studying non stop since beginning of this semester. But till the extent of everyday. I do take big break in between.
Anyway, guess what I did. I play the game, tumblebug and finish all the levels. Finally!! (I should be studying.) And I am blogging now.

Sigh..
Sigh.. if money is not the problem to decorate the new house coming up, I would have opt to new furniture instead of having the current furniture.
And oh, the bathroom needs a new sink cabinet. This one looks so cool and nice. I love how it looks like.
And this coffee table looks very nice to have in the living room.
This wide range of rustic furniture sure got my attention. I would love to have them in my house.

Cold lah
It's so hard to get up nowadays. Hmm.. it must be no exercise that makes me tired all the time. I mean, during the summer holidays, I exercise everyday and I don't even feel that tired. I do housechores at home for mum too. I do walk more because there were stairs. Apart from using my brain a lot though. Hehehe.. Oh yea, I did not fold clothes much at home. I fold clothes more often here. Well that's because no one do it so I have to do it myself. Hehehe..
Right.. it's so cold in the morning too. Then, when it comes to around 10 or 11am for class, the weather has changed to warmer. Aah.. if I have that sort of temperature weather, wouldn't it be nice? Hehe.. right, enough of ramblings and I shall get back to preparing more for exams.

Cold weekend
Weather this week was sunny but still cold. Well, it is going to be winter soon anyway.
Apparently, Sunday weather is going to be freezing cold. I mean as in colder than the expected cold. I am so going to stay indoors this weekend and have the heater on full blast.
Maybe I should escape to the northern hemisphere. It's summer there afterall. I should escape to warmer place.
I did say that I like cold but not to the extent of ice weather. I like the temperature to be around 24 degrees. Aahh.. that is the perfect temperature.
This photo made me want to go there. The warmth.. aaahh.. go to Arizona, rent a house and relax in the sun. How fun.. :D
But first, I should check out the Scottsdale real estate to check out the houses.

A change
I am here again. I should be studying but I just felt like putting down something in this blog. I forgot when I changed this blog's layout. It does looks nice. :P How forgetful of me. I changed the other blog's layout as well. Just felt like a change.
I have been putting a lot of my time into study. I do get a bit of breaks at times. Just going online or just bumming around in the room or watches some series of documentaries I got from someone.
This is probably another physcological in the head that drinking tea makes me pay attention more to my studies. I am going to get immune from the teas soon enough. Oh drinking energy drinks are not good so I better stop. I still have 2 more Wednesday classes without breaks so I still need to drink. After that, I will stop. Yea.. it's not like I am addicted. I used to think I was but you see, I did not even feel like buying them after some time. Anyway, I shall get back to assignment and tests revision.
Assignment is due next Friday and lab tests are Tuesday and Wednesday.

Smarter
Exams are coming up soon. I feel much better after getting advice and tips on how to study smart and not to stress too much.
Darling and I were counting degree points in order to graduate last Wednesday. At first, we counted wrongly and it came out as I am short of 7 papers. That means I have to stay back another year to finish. I got so worried of breaking the news to my parents and scared of studying for another year. After checking with Yiling, darling's sister, it turned out to be only 2 papers short. Ish.. make me worried and scared for nothing.
It does make me want to study harder, strive for the best and finish faster. :D

Urgh
Recession isn't getting better. People are getting sacked each day. Those who has a job also fear to lose their job.
This is such a bad timing to graduate and find a job. But sitting at home being a student isn't helping. You would feel... actually, I feel useless sitting at home, waiting for $$ to come in. I would want to earn some $$ too. Sigh...

My stand
I find that I am easily influenced. Is that bad?
Of course, it would be good if it is for good cause.
But if it is something that I always believe in myself and somebody else change my point of view, I would be so annoyed.
But that is not the problem.
The problem is me being influenced.
So when I tried to argue my point of view, the other person would argue till I have nothing much to say. So does that mean that I am not strong enough on my own stand?

Working very hard
See how hardworking I was. =P
Anyways, this was taken during one of the field trip nights. We had 60% field trip assessed and another 40% report that will be due in on the second week back to uni.

Credit?
You know what? I always thought having credit card(s) sounds cool. And really, it's not.
No, I haven't been in a credit card debt. I am just saying for others' part.
But really, credit cards can really do some wonders. If you need extra just to pay something, use credit card. But make sure you pay them later otherwise you would be charged of the interest when you pay back.
Check out on these strategies in applying for credit cards. I am sure you will get some useful tips to avoid being in debt.
Oh, do check out comparison of credit cards as they do vary a lot from interest to paying out. Get the best offer of a credit card. Make sure you don't regret after choosing the best gas credit cards.

Recession
I caught with friends few days ago and we were talking about budgeting.
Recession is still here.
But going on holidays are so tempting. You do want to enjoy every bit now and then, right?
I guess, with few savings every month or so, you can afford to go holidays, right?
Oh, maybe I can crash at cousin's place once she is there.
Apparently, this seaside beach in Britain is very scenic looking. I would love to go there.
Actually, I haven't been to any beaches in the UK. I am sure beaches around the world at every locations are different.
I don't exactly have a favourite location because I haven't been to a lot of scenic beaches. So this Short Break Wales is what I need. A short break and one location which I can go. Hmm.. maybe I can go for honeymoon? :P

Series
Last night, I watched cantonese drama crime series. I don't actually understand exactly what they are saying. I do pick up a bit of what they said and the gesture. It's not like I don't understand what they are talking fully. I do.
But the thing is, they don't look as if they are really investigating. They were just talking and figuring it out. I was wondering, where is the forensic actions and the equipments? I was wishing that I could watch Bones. Yea, recently I am watching Bones. It's good series. I am only on season one. Don't worry, I am not that crazy over it. I watch the episodes when I am quite free or when I am eating my lunches.

Smell it!
If you ask me what kind of perfume I like a few years ago, I would say, no thank you. I don't use perfumes. I did not really like using perfumes.
I do now. I guess the feminine part of me came out.
Oh oh, when I was walking around in the supermarket in Doha, they have one aisle full of perfumes. And they were not that expensive if I convert them. Those are not branded but the smell are nice.
I like to choose my perfumes according to nice smells which I like.
I forgot what perfume brand I am using at the moment.
So, maybe I should check out this perfume blog to learn more about it? :P
Guilty
I feel guilty for not updating here much. I checked the dashboard regularly though I don't blog much here. I have got 5 followers here. Stalkers.. muahaha..
Actually, I am one myself as I do stalk other people's blog. Once in a while though. I finally found some time to browse around. Things have got a little free with the report out of the way. Apparently I only need a day to finish one assignment so that's alright. I have got this other exercise which requires me to look into the microscope and draw the texture of the minerals and then describing the minerals and how they form, in not more than one page per mineral. I did one draft yesterday and I have another 3 more to go. It's not due till 1st of May.
I should probably go do some study for my test coming up this Thursday instead of blogging here.

Whoops
Oh whoops, I haven't updated this blog for so long. I guess having more than one blog does take time to maintain it. Did I spell it right? I hope so. I am currently taking time off from social events and outings to study and revise my school work. A little time to update blog won't hurt, I hope. =)
Anyway, lately I have been watching series while studying. It's bad habit and I tried not to at times. It's just that it was after I finished my lunch that I couldn't stop watching them halfway.
Now, I have a field trip coming. I should think it is my last one as there is no more field trip in the second semester. Yea, I would be glad because I actually don't like my field trips. It's just so tiring from the day walks and we have to do internal assessment which takes up most of the nights. Then, you go to sleep at midnight and get up at 7. Do you think you would have enough sleep? I don't think I would. My normal sleep would be 8-9 hours.
Okay, enough of ramblings and I shall head back to studying. I am so proud of myself that I manage to finish most of the revision and school work that have been piling up for weeks. Hehehe.. Now I go. Ciao.

I tried but do you think it's true of myself?
Your view on yourself:
You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship.The seriousness of your love:
You are very serious about relationships and aren't interested in wasting time with people you don't really like. If you meet the right person, you will fall deeply and beautifully in love.Your views on education
Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.The right job for you:
You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.How do you view success:
You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.What are you most afraid of:
You are afraid of things that you cannot control. Sometimes you show your anger to cover up how you feel.Who is your true self:
You are full of energy and confidence. You are unpredictable, with moods changing as quickly as an ocean. You might occasionally be calm and still, but never for long.Thursday, 5 February 2009
Settling down
A friend of mine had this thought of creating a blog especially for newcomers to Christchurch. Those who have been staying in Christchurch contribute something to help newcomers to settle down. It is a good idea and it is also very nice of this friend to think about the newcomers. Even lynnx01 also commented to me that it is really nice. =)
But I haven't done much besides just changing the theme appearance and the blog layout. I really have no idea on what to say. Besides others have mentioned almost everything. Seriously, I am not the person to look for if you want new ideas. I can only comment on the blog appearance and how to make it look nicer. That's about it.
My ideas of helping new students settling down are probably too basic and common.

Meaningful
I have been following some of my friends' blog on blogger. Do you know that you can stalk people's blog from the dashboard in blogger? =P I love to read about what others wrote. And they do write meaningful stuff.
This particular friend blogged that we should have our times of ranting our emoness on blog. Yea, I so agree with that. But don't let yourself rant too much. I personally think ranting too much will cause some people not wanting to read your blog. The friend mentioned that other friends may get worried. I guess some friends do. I shall remember that.

Flat barren
Actually, the view of rain in the desert is quite nice.So it doesn't matter if the land is flat barren or filled with flat grass and no trees, the view or place will look beautiful at some point. =)

Summer time
The first time, I travelled overseas, I only anticipated seeing big sized hotel buildings and staying in them while on vacation. But you know what, it means paying more $$. Not everyone can afford to pay so much for staying in a five star hotels. Some more, you cannot cook. I bet they count per head. So when I found out that there are such things as holiday home and cheaper, I was excited. It was like staying in a normal house. Some more, you can cook your own food. Now isn't that cheaper? I bet the prices of the houses per night are cheaper too.
Ok, back to my point, I was thinking of going for summer holidays in the Wales. It's somewhere where I have not been to. It will definitely be a blast. Seeing that I have got a budget, I shall stay in Wales Holiday Cottage. I should think that it is something like holiday home, only on a different word/name.
Oh, but I should go in a large group. Hmm.. Maybe I can ask a bunch of friends or shall I ask my cousins instead, since one of them will be in England soon enough. Hehe...

Plug
It is good to have people leaving comments for the opinions that I spilled out on the blog but somehow I do wonder what those people think who choose not to comment. They probably have more to say about, be it postive or negative. Sigh..
I found this image in my folder. I was actually in the engineering library trying to use my laptop and looking for plug. Instead of a NZ plug version, I found this version of plug. How surprising, right? I didn't have to use my adapter.

Explanation
Say we have free time, and if it so happens our boyfriend is free as well, it's alright to put our boyfriend first, and hang out with friends later. We understand it doesn't at all mean we love our friends lesser, it's just that we choose to be understanding, and just not selfish, because you know that's how YOU yourself about your boyfriend. You just want to spend all your time with him, you can't help it. And for sure, someone who hasn't been through it herself would never understand this.
And do you notice that when couples are dating, they spend all their time together, but when they get married, they MAKE time for their friends? It's like, the normal cycle of life. It happens to almost everyone. You need a break. But when you're mabuk cinta, it's different. You just want to be with that person every second of the day. Not to say that married people cannot be mabuk cinta, but you're secure, and you know you're coming back home to him, and he is coming back home to you. That's the difference.
So what's it with me copying these to all my blogs? Well, let's just say that I am doing someone a favour. =)

Hiatus
Hmm.. good to see that at least the comment is working. Hehehe. I think I shall take time off from internet for a time being. I think it's taking a lot of my time. I shall try to finish the story book I have been reading since 2 weeks ago. =)

Choices
I just finished reading on this friend's post about choices. I agree with him. If I can look back and change my decision, my life wouldn't be like this today. Yes, there are some things that you would sure want to change but there are some things that you wouldn't want it to change. Like he said of what he does, I also let God's strength to help me do things right. I may not be perfect and that's my unique self. Humans can't change me and my personality. They can only influence me and I make the decision myself.
