GaH!

I was in such a rush this morning.. coz I thought I would be late for uni. Forced myself to get up just to make it to one stupid lecture on Monetary Econ. Get to the lecture theatre.. opened the door, thinking I would be just that tad bit late... to find.. AN EMPTY LECTURE THEATRE!.. at first I actually thought I missed the class, as in I thought I was an hour late and had to go home. But the reality of it was that I was a whole hour early! Class is not till 12 and I'm sooo annoyed.

Finally finished my resume last night. Was quite an achievement for me. So does that mean I can start applying for HK internships and Vac work? Not quite! Now I have to write cover letters! Oh it's all never ending. On top of that I'm falling behind on all the uni stuff already. Jap is getting really hard and I have a test on Katagana on Monday (eppz). Readings to do are infinite and all the assignments are coming out from no-where. What have I been doing with my time?!?

I think I feel like going on a two day hibernation. Meaning turning off my fone and net for 2 days. Maybe I shall. I guess those who know how to reach me will still have contact but yes.. it sounds like a good idea. Hope it helps me catch up on everything and stop procrastinating.

Gosh, everyone is really growing up. Like seriously, I can't believe its all happened so fast. The other day I was notified that a really old family friend of mine is getting married at the end of this year. I still remember the days when we all were playing chasey and hide and seek in my backyard. I remember the birthdays 6,7,8,9,10.... and now she's getting married. I know she's happy.

Additionally, a number of my friends have moved out of home recently. Taking that step towards independence, whether it be with a friend or a sibling. Seems like everyone is moving forward with their lives and I'm just static.

gah, ok time to go to class.. otherwise I'll b late even tho I was here an hour early

Student's Life

Some things never change, like cam whoring on Mattilda Bay with Caz

So I haven't properly updated much have I?.... well neither has CAZ!!! hehehe just thought I'd drag someone down with me.. sorry caz. So its back to a student's life for me. Today shall end the second week of uni. This week has been actually quite busy. I can't believe how much has changed this year. I mean studying with MISH in the LIBRARY in the FIRST WEEK OF UNI!! Now if thats not change I don't know what is.

So I guess some of u are wondering how I am coping with my 3 languages now that I'm doing all of them together. Well, actually I'm keeping up and loving them all. I know it may seem a little crazy to do all of them at the same time.. but I think its helping me survive through the "stress" of uni. Jap is taking a lot of my time tho, I think its because I have four hours of Jap class a week. Where as all my other units I only have 2-3 hours. All in all, it's a good challange and I dunno why but this year I am up for a challenge. So Bring it ON!........ Please don't hurt me.

What else is new? hmm not much really.. O I burnt my hand the other day. Pretty much poured hot oil <<< "SHIT">>> my bad....just got freaked out by a 'stranger'... Anyway back to what i was saying...... Edmond is such an awesome person. Just because of that, i'm going to fry him hor fun using my special wok. Ahem.. back to reality, my post just got invaded and I bet you all can guess who invaded it. Yes.. hot oil over my hand and the burn cream managed to heal most of it, cept for some areas I missed. It looks even worse right now than the photo I took a few days ago. I hope it doesn't scar.

Burns =(

I have been attending all those employer talks held at the uni recently and I must say that I am very scared. I feel so little in the world.. so little unworldly. There is so much out there that I don't know. This year I must find Vacation work... my non-existant CV is looking mighty empty .. and non-existant. So I shall be applying for all sorts of places and just hoping that someone will hire me. I just don't know what they expect and I don't know what to expect from interviews. Maybe thats why it's taing me so long to write a CV, because I'm scared. Really scared. On the plus side.. most of the internships and vaction work offered seems to be in another state.. so more travel opportunities? But, then how will HK at the begining of next year fit in with my plans? So much to consider. At the same time I am excited.. excited for the possible future.

Bak to slacking for the night and might do a bit of study b4 I sleep, have Korean class tomorro morning!

OO b4 I go.. new link to Shaun's blog =) Yay new readers

Annyong Hi Gaseyo!

A picture says a THOUSAND words

Summer Holidays

Few more days and summer holidays will be over. It's strange to think that we've already been on holidays for an entire 3 months already.. coz it seems as if the holidays just started yesterday. But these holidays I can actually feel that I have done something in my time off, made use of the chances given to us as students. Although it may not be much, I feel a slight change in my attitude towards uni life. It took me 3 years of uni-ing to say this.. I love being a student. I mean when else would you be given months off just to relax after a set of exams. So, the aim is to cheirsh the time I have left as a student.

In other news, there is now a keyboard in the house and my sisters and I have been playing it like crazy. Its awesome to have a new instrument to play with.. too bad we all suck at playing it. But I am slowly (very very slowly) improving due to the help of my mentor tee hee hee. If only it was as easy as Jay chou makes it look. Speaking of which, the concert DVD of his that I bought has already arrived and I must say my fave Jay is Jay singing 甜甜的. Very cool. Progress on my guitar is nil. I dont think i'm getting anywhere and if anything I'm going backwards. Too much on my plate?

Tomorro is Oday, so it should be fun. Please don't let me get sunburnt and tanned!! Need to figure out what to wear too.. hmmm... O and my uni timetable is CRAP in the first week/when there is no tutes I have a 5 hour break on mondays. How stupid this that! And I can't even go shopping because this year is the year of savings and I so cannot afford to spend, especailly since I wanna get an acoustic guitar. Maybe I should just add it to the list of expensive things that I want. Maybe I should get it when I'm overseas end of this year/beginning of next year. Yeah, another holiday that needs to be saved for, no wonder I have no tangible assets.

OKay its getting late time for bed.. aim for tomorro morning is to get up and gym at 8am (hey I'm still here... U could at least wait until i'm gone before u laugh at me!)

Nic is Back =)

All I have is U

It's almost 1am and when everyone other sane person out there is trying to sleep.. I need to talk. I know everyone else has work tomorro morning or is somehow busy with something else so all I really have right now is you.

Dont know why I'm feeling like this when I looked at those words. A conversation brought up my past (no nothing juicy to tell) and just led me back to all those old emails. If I ever wanted to remind myself of the person I was 6 years ago Hotmail has the answers. All those emails from all those people that once upon a time constructed my entire world. So much that was not forgotten.. but just burried deep deep within my memories. And those words that I thought would not hurt me ever again.. they still hurt. They hurt only because I never knew U of all people would think of me as that sort of person. Because you, I thought was someone who understood me... at least u always said u did. And I guess because you, who once was always there.. drifted to become a distant shadow. Was it my fault?.. The past should stay there and I shall never know.

Cannot let my thoughts carry me away and instead I shall resort to sleep to drown out the questions.. afterall tomorro is another day.

Kept you waiting

Sorry to have kept u all waiting. Then again these days I think only I read my blog...
I dont quite know what have been pre-occupied with lately. I guess just a little bit of everything.


Started both my language classes already and they are both quite different to what I had in mind. I'm kinda very very disappointed at my mandarin class, just because its not a challenge. Its not a challange AT ALL. And after much consideration I'm just gonna stay in this class and take it as writing practise. I'll only do the one semester tho.. then I mite consider doing the diploma next year or maybe doing a diploma at uni.. mite be more challenging and worthwhile. In contrast my korean class is fun and I am really enjoying it. Even tho it doesnt come naturally I can at least say I'm trying and taking the first steps.Starting from the very beginning for korean is quite refeshing really. badabababa I'm lovin' it!

Metro-ed last night for the first time in what 3-4 months. For the first time in 2008 and the first proper time for a long while. I had a good night. I don't know why I enjoyed it so much really. Maybe it was the absence or perhaps the lingering familiarity. Was a good night for me with a few unexpecteds. But with that said.. today I am feeling the exhaustion. Saturday was a full day for me.

Everyone is back from their holidays now.. well almost everyone. Uknow what that means... uni will be starting soon. But I don't mind it really, as long as the time doesnt pass by too quickly. Kinda looking forward to it.. even the nights studying (Yer I know I will take these words back later). But that doesnt mean I don't want the holiday time!! Must make the most of the last few weeks.

Gah ok done with blogging for now.. until a later date ...

Limits to freedom

Much has happened in the past few days... but the last few days seem so far away now. All just a blury picture and only the purest memories shine through. Maybe because strangely enough I seem to have no plans for the next 3 weeks. No plans at all. Well I kinda intended on looking for a job for the next 3 weeks. But I wanted something part-time or casual. And I still have not written up my resume. Wasn't I the one who was begging for time before.. now that I have it.. I am clueless as to what to do with it. I must make the most of it. But how? Can u teach me?

I had dinner with Tammy and Ruth last Wednesday. Those two girls are hilarious!! We ate at Taka's in Shafto Lane. I always have trouble getting to Shafto. remember there was this once when I went with Canh.. it took us 2 hours to find the place and we only found it because we asked someone and they drew a MAP for us. But yes.. back to dinner.. I think we stay in Taka's for like 2-3hours just chatting and the time flew by so quickly. It was interesting and I learnt a lot more about the two girls which was very cool. Ruth with her mogu? LOL. We then headed down to utopia for dessert. It was a nice refreshing night. OoO it took photos on my fone. But they never turned out. When I put it onto lappy, they were all blurry =(. Maybe because of the lack of lighting at night.

Also I remember earlier on in the day I had gone to pay for my mandarin course enrolment. Yes, I am now also officailly enrolled in mandarin (starts this week). But yeah.. since I was in the city a bit earlier than our planned time for dinner.. I did a bit of shopping (for tammy.. coz I know I said I was planning to save and save I shall). Anyway I walked into target then I saw 2 people walking out. The girl looked like she had just stuffed something under her jumper. AND COME ON ITS LIKE 37 DEGREES WHO WEAR JUMPERS... unless.. The alarms went off. The two people had just shop lifted target and were walking briskly out. Notice not running... WALKING. Why? Well, the security/bag checking lady said it herself, she had no back up. No-one to chase them back, no defence against the two shoplifters and all she could do was watch their back as they walked out into the distance. I was quite shocked really.. is this really what happens on a day to day basis?

GaH.

I'm sitting here.. feeling bored and useless. Chinese New Year is comming. But this year wont be the same. Just not the same. It will be filled with a sense of loneliness. Getting sick of fighting. Need a change. Need something new. Most importantly.. I need to stop thinking.
