As Good As Dead

Organisational Behaviour in-class test was the worst test I've ever sat in my entire life.

And it was only an in-class test!! WHY WOULD THEY MAKE IT SO HARD?

Actually, it wasn't that hard. I read every little itty bitty thing but when it just came to writing it all down- my mind just blanked on me. BLANK, I tell you.

Throughout the whole paper, I just kept muttering, "oh my god", "whatthefuck" and "shit" over and over again, much to Shaymal's dismay, who was trying very hard to concentrate. Which wasn't easy as I kept tugging and scratching him out of frustration.

Haha. Karina just texted me,

Let's go out and get very very drunk please? Oh yeah, fuck ob!

Let's.

Home sweet home in 6 days. :)
And oh, it's practically the end of the term now! Yee-hawww!

Not this time

Went to Qube last night to watch Sean dj-ing. It was good going out with the context group again, especially the girls! Tried my "darndest" to have fun but couldn't help feeling dissapointed Boy Next Door did not turn up. Kept being asked by people, "Where's Shaymal?" and all I could say was, "I don't know..". Honestly, I really didn't.

I want to get out of the house because I'm afraid he might come over, and I don't want to look at him. I don't want to face Ian who has been a humongous dick about the whole thing with Shaymal, and that's only because he hates the fact that it's not him I like ( I don't even see why the guys told him that I did last time). I do want to talk to Sven and whinge and moan but he's not here.


Fucking drama man. Fuck it. I'm going shopping with Jenny in town.



Karina, Me, Tara and Jenny L in Qube

Seany O/ Seany Diamond/ Economics Boy doing his thing. :)

Going to watch Seany O dj at Qube tonight. It's gonna be the first time I'm gonna hear his stuff and it should be good.

I'm going with Boy Next Door.

It's gonna be even better.

The Little Things

It's a beautiful day today. Sun shining, birds chirping kinda day. Don't know if it has anything to do with the fact that Sarah has left. Ahem. Anyway, you know it's gonna be a good day here by the weather. The past few days have been rainy and quite honestly miserable, and it didn't help much I had my damned coursework to finish. But on Thursday we handed it in and now it's all done! Am now FREE from work! I can just concentrate on studying for my Law and OB tests in peace without any other work in the way. :)

Went out to Funky Guppy last night and Jenny next door introduced me to her coursemate Leon- who happens to be half English and half Malaysian Chinese! Haha. Was so fun being able to talk to someone about home, especially since he had just spent 5 weeks of his summer in KL and Subang. That makes it 2 half Malaysian connections here.

And I also just found that there's actually a Malay guy staying in Eastwood 2. Weird. But it's so funny how Asians get so excited about meeting other Asians here. One thing I guess is that we won't have to deal with such questions, "Do you have Play Station in Malaysia?" (circa first week of uni, asked by Ian).We have this housekeeper here who who tends to talk slowly to me everytime she comes in to drop the post and etc. As in, " Would-you-like-to-have-your-room-cleaned?", and she pronounces every word slowly as if I won't understand her. She had the funniest expression on her face when I replied in PERFECT English. The funniest though was when I was hanging out in Eastwood 2's kitchen and she came in to give their post,

Boy Next Door: God, it's well cold outside.
Housekeeper lady: Well-that's-because-it's-so-much-warmer-where-you-come-from-dear.
Boy Next Door: ...I'm from London, luv.
Housekeeper lady: Oh!

I laughed till my stomach hurt.
