well, it's jz 3 days away... i've wanted to blog about so many things that had happened the pass weeks, but damn finals had to lurk around on the back of my mind everytime and end up studying or doing other stuff.. haiz..
jz a reminder to myself:

have to blog after exams about my lost helmet.. FF7 screening.. eat out in muara.. hk style ju cheong fun.. assignment frenzy.. mee rebus stall.. Olimpia beach.. root beer float.. and so on :p

so.. to those having finals too, good luck man.. and wish me good luck too.. need lots and lots of them.. hehe.

this whole morning was doing nothing except reading fictions after giving up on my circuit theory assignment. later on i watched shrek 2 in my com cos my eyes hurt from staring at too much words. When the movie finished, felt bored again and then started to play around with photoshop :p. did another wallie as i took the character from Erementar Gerad 2 manga and do a bit color balancing and tada~ here it is:



took like 2-3 hours to tune the colors.. but i still think the previous one was nicer. haiz. think my skills are getting bad...

I woke up grudgingly this morning at about 11 as Mom had picked the best time around to call me *sweat*. I was modifying my programming codes until 3am in the morning, but after mom had hung up telling me to continue sleeping, i hardly did. Washed my face, and it's about 12. The japanese class is about to start and i heard a loud clang as Kristine closed the gate. So without breakfast i went out to campus too. The japanese class was boring, as expected. those newbies can't really catch up so sensei have to slow down for their sake. So we oldies (me not that old la >"<) have to tag along with them. What to do. But during the class, sensei played Utada Hikaru's First Love, which i liked very much. Too bad that time i had a worsen sore throat, if not i'd sing out loud XD.

Later on, me and kristine and loo mun went for lunch in PS. While we were eating we saw Kidrock flying pass us towards the chicken rice shop. he din notice us as i think he's in a hurry. He ta pao-ed and then went off quickly. I was worried about my project cos my .exe file can't open without using Tclite, tho Adeline said her fren said it's ok. I asked her to let me pass up the project, as i wanted to ask the lecturer. She told me that it's with my other groupmate, Hui Ting. So i rushed over to the lecturer's room, only to see hui ting on the verge of passing up the project. I took over, and she went to class. To my dismay, The lec, Ammar told me to go over to the computer lab to recompile it using Rhide (another IDE). So i did that, after waiting impatiently for the technician to open up the lab. Again, horror stricken, there were errors in my codes, which was not to be found when i used tclite to compile it. It was about 3pm, which is 2 hours before deadline. I was really helpless and told Adeline about it. She said i can go see the guy who did the codes for solution, so i went off breathlessly. I practically sped with my old bike over to his office, only to find out that the error part is actually unneeded. So, thanking him profusely, i flew to Adeline's house to reprint the codes.

In the mid, i was testing the codes again, but the output result was really weird, and got me worried sick. She suggested that i go see our saviour again, and so i dashed off, with my poor over-abused bike. After seeing him again, he assured me that the codes are ok, and he told me the output is weird because the input i keyed in was not very suitable XD. I was so embarrassed, as i barged into his office and then only to come out knowing there's nothing wrong at all with the codes. He's working sommore, and i felt so imprudent. He was jz smiling benignly as i said sorry for the umpteenth times. Wat a nice guy...

When i got out of the office, i saw an old lady was trying to use the pay phone, but to no avail. She told me that the phone ate her coins, after i've asked her politely, trying to hid my urgency to rush over to campus. so i jz took out my handphone and pressed the number in her address book. she looked so happy, as i pass her my handphone. When the line connects, she spoke in a different dialect, which i think is tio chew or sth, as i can only understand abit of wat she said. Shortly, she returned me the hp, and insisted on paying me. I was out of time, so hastenly i told her it's unnecessary. Regardless of my refusal, she got out her small pouch and handed me 50 sens while i declined it politely, before giving up shortly. haiz.. She thanked me again, and i jz smiled and nodded before i jumped on my bike and hurried off.

In the Computer lab, i saw alex and his frens are in there too, after he'd yelled my name and gave me a heart attack. With no time to lose, i switch on a com, and straight away compile my exercute file, and thank God, without anymore problems. It was half and hour before 5, so i shot out to the lec's room, and slit the project (paper and diskette together) under his door because he's not in. Urgh. Wat a relief. After all this, i felt like i can drop dead anytime. This can really kill me off if i do this everyday. Haiz. Tired, i went back to my room to stick to my beloved computer XD. Then only i go take bath.

At night, after dinner, Mom called again, and she asked me when is my hols starting. I said starting Oct, so she told me her plans. To my delight, she said she's longing to go to Gui Ling, a really scenic tourist spot in China. And yes! she's bringing me there along~ yey! one more thing to look forward to after the killer finals *sobs*

On thursday night, i've finished my second last paper, which is engin math quite easily. But the thing that bugged me more was not my careless mistakes, but that my id and name was jotted down by the invigilator, as well as my 3 other fren's names. I swear i din cheat! Nor did i try to let other ppl see my answer. Well, i was really pressured before the test, and was thinking of cheating, but i din, after seeing the questions, which was really easier than i expected. Or is it my evil thought earlier that had oozed out attracted the invigilator? Anyhow, when we approach him for the reasons doing so, he said that we talked during exam, so have to see if our answers are similar, then only can 'sentence' us for cheating. Damn. I've a hunch that it's me that he suspected, who's giving out answers to my fren, as i stupidly sat bias to my frens, whom he thought must have copied my answers. Anyway, my frens din copy my answers, which was such a relief. So, there's only possibility for 4 of us having the same answers is 1 to a billion. haha. Not that i cared, cos i'm innocent. *Make faces at the invigilator*

On friday, we went to Tesco to refill our food stock, as well as to get the water filter tube, as ours were really muddy and disgusting since a week ago *nauseated*. We were lucky as Loo Mun's fren, Jun and her bf had offered us a ride there. So, we waited patiently in the house until their arrival. I was thinking of asking them to stop by the General Hospital, because i had to get my second dose of hepatitis B injection. But it was lunch time by then, so i thought better of it. As we were shopping, I jz walk around aimlessly, getting stuff that i saw and i wanted to eat XD. I'm an odd ball cos unlike the other gals, i dun cook and i dun really know wat to buy whenever i'm in a shopping mall. I jz tag along my mom everytime we went shopping, looking at random stuff and giving vague replies when my mom asked my opinions. Haha.. i never gave much thought about wat i should eat for the next few days. Maybe i'm jz plain thoughtless and blur.

Nevertheless, i've bought some foodstuff, and suddenly remember that my wallet's almost empty. After dumping a packet of milo i've gotten earlier, i strolled over to the atm machine, thinking about how much i should withdraw. It's time to pay the rentals, so i decided to get about three hundred as i keyed in the amount of withdrawal. Transaction Rejected. What the hell? Dun tell me mom forgot to bank in money... and it proved that she did. Heaving a sigh, I re-entered a lesser amount and went to pay up. lucky i din buy much, if not i'd be so dead. Before long, we went home, the red kancil loaded with our loots.xD

At home, we stuffed the fridge and no later i'm on my way out again, this time on my trusty rusty bike (hey, it's a pun XD). I biked over to the photoshop nearby, thinking of collecting the EMiNA membership cards from there. Yet it was not ready yet, and the auntie who's in charge wasn't there too. So i went off to the GH. It was a scorcher, and i was sweating profusely as i rode in the heat. Luckily, all the traffic light turned green as soon as i went near. Before long, i arrive in the compound of the hospital, not knowing which building to go. Anyhow, i parked my bike, and asked for directions. Feeling lucky again as i was not far away from the blood bank, i walked there and got my injection in a jiffy.

About half past 9 at night, Dex came for our cosplay planningXD. Lynn brought others along later and we started discussing which character to cosplay. I got mine settled quite early, while the rest were still in a confusion. haha.. At the end, everyone's finally satisfied with wat we have decided. FYI, we were invited to go to Melacca High School to cosplay while i'd have to give a speech about Anime. I was really anxious as i was still in the mid of preparing the script. And it's my first time to give a speech! damn nervous la~

In the morning, I woke up at 8am, took a bath and got myself into my costume excitedly. Then i went down, with over-knee dark blue skirt, and 3quarters long sleeve shirt with a red tie. Loo Mun said i looked really formal without the tie *shrugs* as i was in the kitchen getting my cereal drink. Later on, Dex drove here, and carried some clothes with him, not to mention hair wax. Then Genny came alone, followed by lynn, with Jin and Nikki in the car. Everyone was abit clueless on wat to do, especially Dex. After a while, Kristine brought down a pair of goggles, and Nikki in her schoolgirl costume, started to style dex's hair with hair gel. It was fun watching them messing around, with Dex looking helpless like a white mice XD. The end result was not bad at all, see this:


when everything's set, we drove off to the school, with a detour to Jin's place first to get some really cool black gloves. In about 20mins, we were there in the school, but it looked really quiet. We went around asking about the venue of the anime fest, and then parked near the hall. When we got out of the car, we change into our full costume (before it was hot so we decided not to wear fully XD) and trod off to the main hall. Shu Yin told us not to expect much, but it's jz so empty that it's not even worth being called an anime fest. Near the entrance there's some colorful rice artwork on the sides, while pathetically few partition boards with some drawings (i bet it's all from Shu Yin) were located at the back corner of the hall..











besides having the audience seats half filled with primary school kids, the hall is practically empty. We were like "huh? this's it?" as i looked (or i thought) incredulously at the supposed Anime Fest. Then as i approach The organizer, who's Shu Yin's little bro, he said i can start my speech anytime by then. I was shocked, As i expected some VIPs to be present and have some speech before my non so important one, moreover the event's sponsored by Celcom. But it seemed that there's only little kids around. So, after everyone's ready, I went up the stage. After the organizer had finished his speech, it's my turn.

Even if they're little kids, i felt abit nervous and stuttered quite a while before i got used. The kids were obviously not paying much attention, but they do give response whenever i ask if they know the anime titles i mentioned, hehe.. so nice of them to tag along XD. Then, my speech was cut short, as i felt that all the facts about anime were unnecessasary. On the later part of my speech, i introduced Cosplay to them, and Lynn they all got the cue and came up on stage. They received a resounding applause as they pose on stage, especially Nikky XD. It was fun seeing some of their bored faces turning bright and excited.

Before i knew it, we're done. They started to screen Hikaru no Go in the hall, while we went out to take photos. here's some of them:





















































Then, we went off to MP, of course after taking off our costumes XD. we had lunch in McDonald's, and then walked around to kill time. someone suggested to go bowling, and everyone agreed. i was really excited cos it's the first time i go bowling :p we played 1 round, i've really enjoyed it, tho being a noob in this. Kristine striked, which was really impressive. Although Hsia Liang striked 2 times, he messed up the last round and fall second to kristine XD. no need to say, i'd secure the last, but i'd had my share of beginner's luck. haha.. After that, we went for merchandise hunt and that lead us to Jonker Street. We ate cendol there, but the gula melaka was too sticky, and the quality dropped since we came last time. haiz.. this is wat happen when the food got publicity, which is a real pity. We walked around the street after our tea break, and instead went looking for katana XD. we saw afew in the antique shops, but they were really expensive. Looks really cool tho, if you carry it while wearing a shinigami costume! We were chatting about cosplaying as shinigami for the coming Comic Fiesta, which sounds really fun. Hope we can get costumes :p

so that day ended with me damn exhausted. It's been a while since i've walked so long, especially in the day. haha.. should get some exercise nowadays >v<

I've finished my Computer Programming and Design test yesterday. Before the test, i was really anxious and somehow terrified, as previously a lecturer posted an announcement implying that we'd fail the subject because of our inability to write a simple program. I think it's not true, for my case, because i really put my heart into learning programming everytime during tutorial, jz that i dun have any idea wat to do with the tutorial questions, thus as the lecturer said, we copied the solutions wholly during tut. He said that's not learning, but it's wrong. I do learn from what i copied. Ignoring his condescending announcement, i studied and practised the programming part as much as possible. Yet, in a corner of my mind, i still think that the exam will not be that hard, and i'd surely do well. I can't afford to let this thought put off my determination to study, because i know it'd be worse if i dun, even if the test is easy. Perhaps this is my way of studying, assuming the test won't be so hard, so that i can study without extra stress from myself. I read the pass years questions, and a part of me was betting on the test being as easy as the previous years, if not easier. Yet I did not show it out, instead i looked worried, trying to make myself less over-confident. Hehe.. i'm such a hypocrite.

Once in the exam hall, the questions in the sheet proved that i've hit the jackpot. I felt so relieved once i saw all 4 of the questions. it's not as hard as i imagined, or as i wanted myself to imagine. In fact, i answered the 3 questions in my mind before the test started. then i wrote them down, and finished all of them in about 1 hour, including checking for careless mistakes. It felt so good to be out of the exam early, as i walked back from campus. The sky was dark, but i can see darker clouds lurking. It's gonna rain, i thought, and sure enough, when i reached home, the wind blowed really hard, with trees swaying and leaves rustling. In no time, it poured. phew.. lucky i went out early.

As Loo Mun's com was sent to repair (its warrenty is still valid! what a surprise for a 2nd hand laptop) she went over to kristine's com to do her assignment. Then she asked me to come over, which i did, to see some stuff. Before long, it sent me straight back to my room blushing, with them laughing at my innocence.. damn. Me no like that kind of stuff, k? let alone seeing it... gives me the shivers. Trying to forget wat i saw, i resume reading my chinese fic, which was much much better and interesting. I spent few hours reading it, until about 3am in the morning, then only i was too tired to continue on.

This morning i woke up at 12am. haha. so nice being able to sleep until my heart's content. But then still have to study for the monday electronics test. haiz.. this is so tiring. Can't we jz finish them once and for all?! Assignment deadlines are drawing near too. Felt like running away from all those stuff and jz read and do cg from day until night. Sigh. well, i guess this is the life of a uni student, eh? Really hope that my uni life wont be filled solely with exams and assignments..

每日依然盼望着什么，将这一成不变的循环打破..

I had a really nice weekend, as we went phototaking, shopping, and then cooking at home. but today everything seemed so bleak...

At first it's really refreshing, the weather cooling as it jz stopped drizzling as i walk to class. then the class dismissed earlier, which was a nice surprise. I went home, and after passing dex some stuff, he went home and i as usual stuck myself at my com until 3pm. Yining came back and then we went to the sundry shop by bike to buy rice and other miscellanious stuff. Well, the first bomb came when i was home again, checking the announcements by my lecturers. Guess wat? i'm going to be barred if i dun see the lecturer and give him a valid reason. damn.. I did go for class every week! jz that i went for other lecturer's class, cos he's incomprehendable when he speaks. Damn MMU for bringing in those damn foreigners who can't even speak english with correct accent.. Damn! so i have to go see that lec tomorrow to stare at him imploring while giving my made up half-truth reasons.. shit.

When i wanted to go class at 6pm, i went out with my bike with Kristine coming along too. Suddenly, as we were jz few houses away, i felt that my bike's back tyre was abnormal. Shit. it's punctured! Damn! How could it get any worse?! so grudgingly, i have to drag it back home and walk to campus. Damn it.

Was really discouraged during class, as i dun have notes, but copied down everything on the slides nontheless. Then after class we went testing laptops for screening. Kristine was teaching Dex how to use Photoshop while i sat there staring with hollow eyes.. I can't get my mind off being barred.

Went back home for dinner at about 8pm, and i ate my meal in total silence.. sorry for making you guys feeling awkward cos me wasn't in a good mood that time >"<

Later on, i tried to shrug off the bleakness. Am still trying now.. Loo Mun was having major problem with her laptop.. well, at least my com's still ok. Hope that things will work well tomorrow..

因为背负着过去，因此期待着明天，更美好的到来。

Damn.. tomorrow have to passup my lab assignment yet here i am, clueless and frustrated. I dunno wat to do with the stupid discussion part!! Damn!!! >"<

Besides, next week i have computer midterm on friday, and possibly saturday i'm going to have my Electronics, if not it's gonna be on monday!! i'm Doomed...

not to mention the mountain of assignment i have to do, some in groups while some individual.. i'm deadmeat. i can't even understand wat the questions in the assignment wanted. all i saw was the deadlines threatening me. how can i survive?! aaaaarrrrggghh.

扭曲的世界里.. 无尽的黑暗蔓延着, 吞噬人心, 散播绝望...

jz asked vox to scanned it (thx again XD) and did some cleaning.. but obviously it's still very dirty.. :p nvm~ i'd still have to brush up my drawing skills >__<

here's a wallie i made using the character from erementar gerad 2. din do much except tuning the color and fixing here and there. this is the original here. And this is wat turn out to be my destop wallie now >w<

hehe.. how's it? later on i tried changing the color of the clothes, but turned out worse i think.. here's the link if you wanna see..

btw, during the evening after i came back from meeting, yining saw monkeys rummaging the trash, and later i saw them too... jz hope they won't disturb ours.. *sweat*

Was telling myself that i have to study in case that the electronic test would come back early, but i jz can't. I was doing trivial stuff like taking photos of my anime posters, and photoshop-ing them abit before uploading them here and here. After that, it seem that i was so inspired that i decided to use the uploaded pics to do my blog sig. so the whole day i was playing with filters and textures in photoshop, and came out with this:


special thx to yining for adjusting the color with me cos i was too blinded to do that after few hours of staring at the same pic >"<. Hmm.. Wat do you guys think? hehe.. going to fix it in this blog later, when i have time XD
btw, the chinese characters means 'Can you hear the melody of Nature?' which i suddenly thought of, as i went pass my room's balcony looking at the clear blue sky. XD
