took me 3 sleep-deprived nights to prepare for sociology quiz 1...
coz i duwan my 10% to fly off like that...
ofcoz i didnt finish reading...
how could i finish 200+ pages of material when i need at least 30 minutes to read and memorize one page....gah...
and the quiz turned out to be quite easy...
i mean, easy but i cant do coz i didnt read...
sigh...
anyway i shall catch some sleep now before i go psycho.
oh, did i mention that i bought a car??
it's a silver premium myvi...
i know, ordinary sangat!!
i want this metallic grey but i'll have to wait for at least 2 months to get them...
IT'S TIME TO START LEARNING HOW TO DRIVE AGAIN.
SIGH.

demons are on my way. shooo!
i finally got to watch Angels & Demons today.
only after anticipating it for more than a year lol...
and the movie didnt turn me down!!
awesome!!
except that imo the front part is a bit too draggy
n i'd rather watch an all-four-preferetti-died scence, just like the book
instead of one of them being saved...
anyway, i really wanna read the book for the second time since i forgot almost all of the details...
*****
The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveller, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference
****
oh yes, one of my favourite poems.
okay, not that i like a lot of poems...
it almost perfectly describes my experiences and dilemmas in many ways...
oh a common example would be,
choosing to take sociology instead of intro to mass comm which is a million times easier...bleh...
i often find myself choosing the relatively difficult path,
maybe i want to prove that i can do it,
or live up to people's expectations. (that's so not good)
and the thing is, most of the time i'm not even mentally tough to be able to cope with the situations...
but i truly believe that choosing your own path, not the right/common path will work its way till the end....
ouch...
i'm getting philosophical here...
too immersed into the worlds of Comte, Spencer, Marx n other sociologists...
well, maybe i shouldn't be pushing myself too hard??
go for the hard way, and be successful??
or the easier way, which will be succesful as well??
i prefer the former...
because an easier way doesnt bring you sense of accomplishment, and true happiness...

pathetically pathetic.
1. i guess i've got over the humiliation i caused last thursday, at the gym.
what happened was...
i cried at the gym, publicly, like nobody's business.
yeah, so much for being someone who appears to be quite tough.
anyway, it was kinda embarassing.
dont ask me about the reason, because i really dunno why...
i was doing the same leg machine half way...
then i felt a sudden suffocation, which almost resulted in hyperventilation...
and....yea....tears poured down for a freaking half an hour...
okay really sorry for those who thought i was gonna puke and faint or smtg...
but i didnt expect this to happen riteee....
anyway after several analyses....
the possible reasons are:
--> i was physically worn out. i wasnt even recovered from my muscle strains, and yet i tot i could handle it. perhaps mom was rite, i was so egoistic n i tot it's bad to cancel an appointment... i could 'hear' my muslces 'shouting' at me when i was training...'stop it dude!!! stop it!!!'....oh well...
--> my pms has gone from bad to worst. which had severely disrupted my hormonal functions. yeah right.
--> i was too worried about my assignment due the next day. but this reason is quite unlikely, coz i've been through worst than this.
but it's definitely NOT bcoz my diet plan was not successful, as what dad said. LOL.
anyway, i'm officially a crying lad now.
been experiencing some kind of monthly cry cycle since february. yeah.
and my menstrual cycle wasnt even that accurate. HAHAHA.
2. owh sem 1 results are out.

"for those who procrastinate in their reading...sleep becomes optional for the next few weeks. even a long bath and short bath makes a difference(in timing)," sociology lecturer.
of course, i'm a die hard fan of procrasinators.=)
maybe i should get back to reality and start studying.
bye.

you go girl
i'm here to spend time unwisely (is there such word??).
1. last night in gym, resumed my training session after stopping for 6 months.
personal trainer(pt): hmm...buat apa ah hari ini..oklah, kita buat basic saja
me: okok!! *smiles with relieve*
moments later, we're at this leg machine, which i normally do at 35kg, BUT...
pt: ok, sekarang tukar ke 100(kg)...
me: har???????
pt: 100 lah...
me: er.....
after i 费尽九牛二虎之力
i managed to lift 8 times, with the help of my pt...
i felt that my legs are disjointed from my body...
anyway, after an hour
pt: kamu teruklah hari ni, thursday datang lagi ya
me: ok lo......#(&%)#*&%(*#@
and now almost every part of my body is ass-fully PAIN.
i wonder what i have to do on Thursday, hmm...
more importantly, i wonder how could i strive through erhu lesson tmrw...
but, in the name of slim+perfect body shape...
我会加油的!!!
(coz i've grown a lot in the past few weeks, horizontally)
2. the reason y i'm blogging here.
i was wrong.
VERY WRONG.
i tot Sociology could be quite a breeze,
but it turned out far worst than any Psych subjects so far...
firstly the lecturer herself scared us to bits when she briefed us the outline...
and showed us how thick the textbooks and notes are...
n halo, the thickness is almost equivalent to 5 sejarah textbooks...
to be completed in 7 weeks!!!
anyway after half an hour of threatening...
lecturer: those who wish to take Sociology next sem (maybe never), can leave the hall now...
not surprisingly, HALF the class went off...
should i be proud of being so determined to continue???
well at this moment, i THINK i could handle...rite?? (i need a heavy dose of self confidence)
not to mention the fact that we have to read about 100 pages of Sociology in average before class commences, n there's like 4 classes per week, so abt 400 pages per week...hmm...
fortunately today was the first class, n we haven got our textbook yet,
so our hw today is:
1. read the course outline (lecturer: make sure u read every single word in it)
2. find the definitions of 18 Sociology terms
3. read article(about 12 pages)
how could i even spare time for entertainment??
it's 1am now n i've only read the course outline so far...
this is crap.
but I WILL EMBRACE MY FEAR.
Sociology, here I come!!!
okay, i better go back to my readings...ciao...

Of a 'filled' weekend.
Saturday
woke up at 7am.
to get prepared for Wesak Day Charity Sale.
this year, we're selling popia and fresh vegetables from Cameron.
popia was a blast!!
overwhelming responses...
so it's not a surprise that everything was sold out within two hours=p
normally i'll be having a good sleep after the sale.
but this year i decided to be THERE FOR MUN TENG. LOL.
okay i expected to be late since it's impossible to reach midvalley at 12 when the sale normally ends at 1.
but i ended up reaching 3 hours late.
haha, sorry lah dudes.
had to pick up my aunt from the hospital.
so i skipped redbox ishhhhh.
but good thing is we got to watch X-Men. *grins*
although the remaining seats are on the first-row o.O
well better than nothing rite...
pity cheeyuen for having to watch the second time haha...
well to me Xmen was quite nice wert...
anyway reached home at about 7...
thanks cheeyuen for the ride! n rmb to return me the 7 bucks for parking ticket haha...
okay, i tot i had quite a day...
but NOT.
i think there's smtg wrong with my nerves
when i suggested to my parents
'why not go mid valley for dinner since we'll be picking up sue (my sis) there?'
so yeah i'm back at mv on 8pm><
even had some shopping after dinner...
MY LEGS ARE BREAKING.
after more than 12 hours of standing + walking==

another 2 hours plus of walk again hahaha...
and then..
it's my last day of hols!!
ohnoohnoohnoohno....

one is Quantiative Methods (finally there's smtg Mathematical!)
and another free elective, which wouldnt start till next month...i'm thinking of taking Maths 1, an Econ degree subject...
but my timetable's kinda sucky...

turns out that she turned to the non-filter mode out of convenience...
okayyyyy.....
and what's worst is she said she saw ME doing that
what the..........................
sry maid, i've decided to write a complaint letter abt u ....
