It's Still The Holidays~

Now, it's halfway through my holidays and I haven't been doing nothing much. Just sitting at home, wasting my youthful days. Haha. My brain is probably so fried right now since I haven't been using it too often these days. No formulas to be memorized and no calculations to be done, except when it comes to money. Hihi.

My friends have organised a reunion for this Saturday. A barbeque at the beach. Seems interesting, huh? I can't wait for that. It has been ages since I hung out with my lower secondary schoolmates. I spent three whole years at the school before moving to another school that was closer to my new house, back then. Now we lived in this house for almost 7 years, which is quite a long time considering the fact that we always moved around.

I'm in a really confused state right now and I'm not really sure why. Just trying to figure out myself, I guess. I bought a new laptop but it seems to be causing a lot of trouble. So, I guess I should use the warranty given. Quite frustrated by this since I am forking my own money for this laptop, meaning I'm broke for semesters to come. Haha. I should start saving more and spending less. But can I? We'll just have to wait and see.

The other day, my dad told me I was an underrated driver. By my mom. Well, she really doesn't trust me when it comes to driving eventhough I have driven home to my uni back and forth well like a dozen times already. Not when it comes to driving my car but when it comes to driving her's or my dad's car. But, what the heck. One day, she'll finally agree that I'm a good driver. Haha. Running out of ideas now , so I'll just stop.

'Til then, toodles.

Sickness

I've lost quite a lot of weight recently. And this in not because of me dieting. I don't do diets. I have never thought of it and don't expect me doing it in the near future.
The real reason why I have lost weight is because I got sick twice before coming home. I guess that's why they call it
'homesick' ness.

The first time I got sick was because I went down with a fever,
coughs and a flu.
I think I fell ill
because I studied too hard. Haha. Do you believe that? I kinda
believe it. Hehe. I have this habit
of studying at the library or the IRC as they call it there. So,
I always spend time at the 'winter in UTP' library. You can always find me there whether it was morning, afternoon or night time. To top it all off, my laptop drowned so I had no
reason to stay in my room (drowned: water spilled on my laptop). In fact, I was so bored of staying in my room, I coudn't wait to go to the IRC every time. I think that's just me losing my insanity.

The fever started during my second
last paper, Intro to Eng Thermo. There was definitely heat transfer
during the paper, alright. If you get what I mean. By the last paper, which was Fluid Mechanics, I was having dizzy spells. I felt like sleeping the whole time I was answering the paper. What a feeling to have when you're sitting for your finals!

After recovering from that, I fell sick again! This time it was due to food poisoning. I think I know which restaurant made me fall ill. Being sick due to food poisoning is not the best feeling. I sure don't want to go through it again. At first, I felt dizzy. Then, my stomach ached. After that,
I vomitted every single thing I ate for dinner. Then, I just couldn't get up. So my friend took me to the UTP clinic. I ate some bread and took a pill that would stop me from vomitting but guess what? I vomitted the pill together with the bread. Haha. How ironic is that? Vomitting a medicine that would have stopped from vomitting.

That night, I couldn't sleep at all. I kept vomitting. If I drank water, I would vomit it. So after 4
or 5 trips to the toilet, I kinda realized I should stop drinking water. The following afternoon, I went to the clinic again. This time it was an outside clinic. You know what the doctor told me? Don't eat anything. If I were to ever get hungry, then I can only eat bread or grains. So, I followed his advice and I ate only so I can swallow the pills. No matter how much I hated medicines, I ate it just because I could go home the following the day without having the need to puke all the way back to Melaka.

The following day was the day I went home. But before that, I had to settle my packing and put the boxes at the proper place. Since there was hardly anyone around, I had to do all the carrying
myself, even in that sick state. Where is a gentleman when you need one? =p After a few trips, I felt like fainting. Imagine. You can't eat anything and there you are carrying all the boxes and bags. Now, all your energy is gone and you can't recover it because you can't eat. Haha. I did eat 'breakfast' so I can eat my pills but it was just a piece of bread and now it's gone because I had to use it to do all the carrying. Thank god I didn't have to drive. Thanks for driving =)

Toodles.

I'm Back

I'm a perfectionist. It's so obvious. Every single thing I do or see will always have me say something in the back of my head. It's getting tiring listening to my own thoughts constantly.
Isk2. I should stop think
ing. Erkk. How can I stop thinking when the
human brain is on 24 hours a day? Well, that's something I'll discover in another lifetime.

Well, anyways, the problem i kept blabbing in this blog is more than over. It's history.
I've forgiven him and now we're friends :) Awww, how cute is that? Hihi~ I told you, the road of forgiveness would have been a long one. Though because I haven't updated this blog as frequently as I have might wanted, it seemed I took a long time to forgive him since I just told you now. I don't quite remember when I forgave him but it was during the end of the January 2007 semester at my university. Haha. It has been quite a long time.

I think one of the reasons I hardly update my blogs is because these blogs also had quite a huge part in the 'then' problem. So I guess I wanted a little break from it all. Now, it seems I'm
hungry as ever to start writing again. Mind you, this my semester break so I have plenty of time to waste. To be honest, the July 2007 semester was the most hectic semester yet. Coupled with the number of events I joined and the number of problems I faced, there was a load of work to be done especially during the final 2 weeks of the semester. I thought I would die trying to finish all of them but I managed to do it.

The weekend after all the work was finished was my birthday. Eventhough study week already unofficially started that weekend, I vowed to myself I wouldn't open a single book that weekend. And I didn't. I totally enjoyed it. I even joined a bowling tournament and finished fourth. It was a trio so I had help from my teammates. Actually, they were the ones who asked me to be in the team. Watched football later that night and my birthday celebration was at midnight. After eating the cake and getting pranked, we went for ice-cream at 7-Eleven and headed to a 24-hour McDonalds outlet to eat. We were back at the uni at 7 in the morning. How's that for a birthday celebration?

I have to say my roommate is good at making birthday celebrations. My first birthday at UTP was the best but this one got to me emotionally. The prank I mean. How on Earth would you feel if someone stole your precious car. Haa. Try being in that situation. I cried but not in front of them. I also went missing for awhile as I was searching for my car. Haha. That scared the hell out of them. So it was kinda my prank to them. Though, I was touched by how scared they were while I went missing. They even started a small search party. Cool, huh?

Well, I guess that's all. This post is kinda mixed up. Just putting everything in one post because there's just too much too say. That's all for now.

Toodles.
