kamikaze~

okay...kamikaze? worth it? not sure...

I am seriously thinking of kamikaze-ing with those barbarians in this group write up...i am not going to type the whole business plan with all those damn finance stuffs! i hate accounting!!! the reason for choosing science stream is to avoid account! i think all my friends know how much i hate accounting! argh!

If those barbarians made my life a little smoother in this module, i might have tried to love account and finance...but those damn barbarians didn't, did they?

Well, my prediction was a little inaccurate...someone did call me up and asked me about the assignment stuff...not barbarians though...but kinda annoying when they don't want to put any effort into thinking...or emailing lecturers...instead, they are choosing the easy way out...like....asking you for soft copy like this:

"hi connie, i don't know how to calculate the stuffs and draw the graphs...can you send me your copy of all the graphs? i will alter the title and wordings..."

yup...this is annoying!! if you reject them, you feel like an *tut*...if you agree to it, you feel like you had just flushed your efforts into the sewage...This may sound selfish, i know...but i am IT idiot as well! i used paint (which i only knew about this thing last year when i was doing my poster) to edit my graphs...i know it's cheating...but i don't know how to use those fancy software...hahaha!

the end? i agreed to it...haha! typical connie reaction...i will hesitate, but still, it's all about the guilt thing..

*interrupted by housemate* i going for dinner now~ continue this next time

sitting, wishing, waiting~

i cant wait for everything to be OVER... i had to pass up 2 business assignments on 1 May...but i am procastinating since it's group assignment...(told you, i give up on this module, didn't i?)

on 1st of april, i had to pass up another report....individual...and i am starting to calculate those damn equations...BUT, i rather do 3 similar assignments than doing the grouped ones...hahha! I am waiting for 1st April....i believed i would have done the assignment on time....and i can rest until 21 April where my first exam starts...after 1st of April, i think i need to CLUB! i don't care! I need to drown those stresses that has been accumulating!

hmm...suddenly, i had a bad premonition!!! since i have to hand in the report on 1st of april, i suppose my phone will start ringing non-stop starting from Monday...

*gulp*

I should change my ringtones again...It's not that i am thinking highly of myself...but since it involved calculations and it's a complicated report, i suppose they will start calling everyone~

anyway, to de-stress myself, i had been planning a Char-siew-pao-baking session with my friend...and i planned to bake a banana cake as well....the banana cake is not the Secret Recipe's...it's those you can buy from chinese-auntie-stalls at the road sides...i LOVE that banana cake...soft, fluffy, aromatic...ooohhh! i am hungry!

Okay, that's it! at least i have something to look forward to...it made my life a lot better...

Ps: i am still a bit worried about the Monday...i am pretty sure they will start calling...I NEED STRENGTH TO ENDURE THIS...i guess my patience and endurance power has increased to a level which is beyond anyone's imagination...thanks to the barbarians...i had learnt to appreciate peace and life in Malaysia...

your reaction determine your day...

okay...i had a presentation (the group thing) this morning...it was...

8am


i arrived and they were late for 15 mins...i presented to all of them the first time...highl-lighting all the main points that the slides should be emphasized on....and they started arguing who's going to be the three presenters (we have 4 in a group)...


The arguement and my thought in blue font


A: shut up, B. I am trying to talk here...(exxxcuuuseee me, i should be the one talking...u know shit about it)


B: i think i should present and we should include this JOURNAL in the slides (*tuut* you...i emailed 3 of you BLOODY more than a week ago and none of you give a damn about my slides and here you are...wanting to add some useless piece of *tuut* into the slides)


A: we dont have time to add any extra thing anymore...and u shut up and listen for a while, can you? (why dont the BLOODY all of you shut up, but i agree that we have no time to add any *tuut* on the slides..)


B: What? i should present this slide, this slide and this *choosing and flipping* (Why dont you tell the lecturers you just wana introduce the group members coz it is the easiest since you know nothing but *tuut*)


C: I wana present as well..coz i went back to india and the lecturer would think that i did nothing! (well, well....so you actually realised that you did nothing...IMPRESSIVE...)


A: no, i think you dont know anything...you were in india the whole time and only we know what's going on..and if the lecturers asked about it, we'll just say everyone did the job together... (yea-right, as if you knew about it...then who's the one calling me up 2am asking me the difference between PHA and PHB? are you hinting me not to file a complain about you guys not contributing a *tuut*?)

and they continue to argue in indian language...i don't know how to interprete...
*my phone rings* (My mum must have feel my tension...she called...i didn't even utter a single sound during the whole arguement...coz i give up on them...too childish..the lecturers mentioned that one presenter will be enough and everyone will get the same bloody mark...so why bother to humiliate yourself in front of everyone? i wonder...)

i talked to my mum outside the room and they must have argued quite intensely....and C came out and asked me to go in for discussion on who should present...I said:


"count me out...i don't wana present...you guys can do it...i am talking to my mum, dont interrupt me" (in a nice intonation)


she went in and came out after a minute...asking me to go in again...i hang up the call and went in...they BLOODY freaked out when they heard i dont wana present...they were so scared that they were practically begging and using reverse phsycology on me!

A: if you are not presenting, we are all not going to present...you always get the best mark in presenting! you must present to bring up the marks!

my thoughts: yea-right...you guys are quite united when it comes to abusing me...you think i'll give it a damn about presenting? i don't bloody care anymore...i can cover this marks with my other modules...i may not get a distinction, but at least it'll be a decent average~

My answer: i am really sorry, but i made the slides, so i am not going to present...i think the three of you can make a perfect job since i had emailed you guys the script for the presentation...even C can talk since everything is written..just read from it...

They really FLIPPED~ but i dont give it a damn...seriously...i am too upset by their arguements because i think it is too childish! come on! grow up!!! wake up you guys...we are a TEAM! it doesnt matter who present...i just want a good mark...

the presentation ended in disaster....and i was the slide clicker...a lot of information hasnt been pointed out...and they ran overtime because B is talking rubbish...and i answered all the god damn questions thrown by the lecturers...

*i did a bad thing...B was taking too long on one slide and rambling the same sentence for at least 5 times..i just click the slide away and he has to stop*

hahhaha! who cares? i dont give a POOP anymore...i am not going to complain, i can afford to flunk this module...

so, i went out with my friend for a lunch at a bar....fish and chips and chat over a latte...then we continued our gossiping at a new cafe with a cappucino...called the Rococo cafe...which is my heaven now...i'll show you guys the pic...and i went shopping with my housemate and get a good bargain!!! and i went to a spanish restaurant for dinner....called La Tasca with my housemate...reached home around 10pm...






cute sign indicating the LADIES'


Cute sign indicating MEN's


Isn't Rococo cafe fabulous? i am naming it Connie's heaven


It is really comfy..i fell in love at first step



Although the cappucino wasn't fancily decorated, but it still taste the same..only 2.15pound...costs less than starbuck or costa..and the enviroment is much better...


La Tasca...it is a candlelight dinner with my housemate..haha! it's her mum's bday on easter and her mum love spanish food...so we came here to try it out...

The Menu...luckily it is explained in english...cant even pronounce the dishes!

Meat paella and chicken paella...superb!


Some dried tomatoes and olive bread with vinegar and olive oil...great!!!

Seriously...i dont know the name..but it is potato cooked with cheese and spicy tomato puree...

My love...Chocolate fondue...and it is Dark chocolate!! i am going to make it at home!!!

My bargain! a top~


jeng! jeng! jeng! check out the price!!! 55 pound!! discounted to 45 pound!


and the FINAL PRICE? 12 pound!! and it is from Miss Sixty ( one of the top brands)...hohoho! i just cant resist the discount...ahem...i fit in...but if i dont look good, this will motivate me to attend gym regularly~


so, my day ended up with a blast...and i am happy eventhough the presentation was a disaster...hahahha! i've found my heaven hideout and a good bargain and a great spanish restaurant (for all the stuffs we ordered, it costs us only 13 pound each...and include my cappucino...again...and a wine for my housemate)!
PS: actually, i had another story to tell...but...kinda lazy to blog about it...i'll blog about it maybe next time...
PPS: mum, your sixth sense is great! it has always been like that...everytime i am caught in some situation where i wana leave, you'll be that angel, reaching out for me..I LOVE YOU...
Dad, i know you must be fuming because you were beside mum when i talked to her this morning...i can hear you...hahha! it makes me feel a lot better to know that you guys will always support me no matter what...

24 march...a super adventurous day..

this blog is going to be LOOOONGG...
I start off by waking up at 8am...prepared my presentation slides for one of the modules..(individual...not grouped).. i arrived at the uni around 11.30am and the presentation started at 12.30pm until 1pm..

BUT...i have an appointment at 12.45pm with the GP for my mumps vaccination!! gullpp!! i rushed to health care center just to know that my appointment was postponed to 5pm...okay, nevermind bout that...my friend and i head off to a korean restaurant and i had a chicken bimbimbap..a traditional korean delicacy...i forgot to take a picture of that...

Then we head off to Chinatown to buy some ingredients to make 'snowskin mooncake' and mochi...which is pandan flavoured...we bought pandan leaves, icing sugar, red bean, flour etc etc...

Then we arrived his place around 2.30pm i guessed and started our baking session!! along with his sister... i had to boil the red bean and blend it just to make the red bean paste for our mooncake and mochi fillings... then, we had to blend the pandan leaves and sift it to discard the pulp (pulp? is that how they call it in baking language? i dont know...but i prefer to call it precipitate or pellet! hahhaha!)

i'll skip the cooking stuff now...kinda lazy to talk about it...pictures says a lot more...hahha! but i forgot to take the picture of the snowskin mooncake...coz we ate it right after making it...talk about starvation! haha! but my mochi had to be left to cool down, so i cant make it at once since i had to rush to health care center at 5pm...

i rushed off at 4.50pm and ran all the way to the health care center...and i arrived 5pm SHARP! gym is a good thing, you know? hahhaha! Then i waited till 5.30pm and went in for vaccination...

i asked the nurse...

"izzit painful? how painful is it? i am scared...how big is the syringe? any side effects?"

he patiently answered every questions and tried to calm me..."i will pinch you to divert the pain..be ready...here i come!!!"

*jab*
*silence*

*cried*

he gave me tissues and tried to console me..

"you know, a lot of people cried when they got injected.....those kids are scared of injection...and you have to come back after a month for booster injection"
*shocked**wordless*
a lot of people cried = consoling
those KIDS = shame on me
second injection = WHAATT? ***tuutttt***

he asked me to sit around and i told him i had to rush off...i reached home around 5.45pm and changed...put on a nice dress...but covered with raincoat...shhesshh...cant even show off my nice top..

I meet up my friend and we went for a Malaysian night dinner where we had murtabak for starter, nasi lemak as main course and bubur pulut hitam for dessert...we walked for 45mins in the light drizzle (uphill)...we had our starter and main course...but the dessert never came..it costs me 6 pounds for a horrible dinner...

my didi kept on insisting that we should leave early...i supported him...coz they are putting on some stupid shows...such as raping dikir barat (whatever that means), mixing songs and sing it in some funny way....and the MC...is a FAILURE!!! that MC is a 3rd year law student...but...he cant even speak in proper way...argh...he is too gay as well...he keep on shrieking (happily) for no reason...

so, we head off to Maharaja...where we had our second dinner...hahhaha! until 11pm...then, i head off to my friend's place and continue moulding my mochi until 2am...and i arrived home around 2.15am...i sleep around 3am (bathing and online chatting..) and i woke up at 8am to head off for class today....10am...then, 12.30pm, i went to the bank to sort out my stuffs until 2.30pm...so...came back, blog...that's it!! i have another presentation tomorrow! Group thing...hopefully it will be good....mine is the first group...

presenting my pics!!


THE murtabak...starter...this is TINY...unpalatable...yuck!
my nasi lemak..it was so-so...i ate half, threw half...

Dikir barat wor...and the Rapper-wannabe (meng-yasoi-kan orang malaysia)

Maharaja's papadrum...nice....


sag bhaji? forgotten the indian name...but it's oriental pumpkin cooked with tomato n curry


This is sag aloo...spinach with potatoes...very nice...


My pandan mochi with red bean paste filling! damn nice! too bad, the greenish colour is not obvious enough...no colouring and preservatives~ yum-yum... (looks like i can sell it for 2 pound a box...anyone?)

we played around with different sizes of mochi...look at the ENORMOUS MOCHI!


My tiny mochi compared to the enormous one...




okay...no more funny pic...this looks ugly, i know...but take note of the thickness of the mochi skin...this is why i like baking it myself...thin-skinned, lotsa fillings!!! muahhahaha! that red bean paste really killed my arms...

THE meeting

i mentioned about not doing the talking to the lecturer during the meeting, right? ...and...argh...i am even tired to complain in my blog anymore...here's the main point...

1) one of the barbarians didn't turn up for the meeting...
2) when we meet the lecturer, the other 2 barbarians turn to look at me...signalling that i should do the talking..

i started the conversation and introduce the lecturer to our product...i'd TOLD the barbarians beforehand that i dont have any enquiries, because i don't know what to ask!

there are only 2 situations when you dont know what to ask:
1) you totally don't understand something (this is my situation)
2) you totally understand the whole thing

So, i dont know how i got managed to survived through that meeting...i ended up asking some superficial questions which i already knew the answer! example? here it is:

Price of product - production costs = profit

I asked what is the production costs i should include? who doesn't know it means raw materials, equipments, salary, gas, water, lab, electricity, internet etc? who doesnt???? that lecturer must have thought all science students are business idiot!! argh...whatever...i am going to nap it all OFF straightaway...hoped that i'll dream about killing some barbarians~

stay tuned for more updated complains...

Sunday 22 March 2009

...more complains..

i promised myself not to complain anymore about the barbarians...BUT...i cant!! argh!!

let's start off with the group assignment...those *tut* barbarians.... i had done the presentation slides for them and emailed everyone a copy...and none of them give me a feedback...okay, nevermind about that...one of the barbarians rang me up around 4.30pm and said this:

"Hi Connie, can you email the lecturer (not that witch) and tell him that our group will meet him on Monday 11am? Today is Friday, email him as soon as possible and i will call you again to see what he replied"

It is *tut* 4.30pm and you expect me to email him whenever you call me? Why don't you bloody email him yourself? i dont have any enquiries that i need to see him! argh!!! I am so pissed off!!! I cant bear to hear her voice anymore, so i replied:

"i will email him right away but i dont want you to call me later. I will email you if the meeting is confirmed. I dont have any enquiries bout the assignment...If you have enquiries, please be prepared to ask him coz i dont think i'll do any of the talking"

I sound harsh, i know...but i dont CARE! at that point, i dont want to hear her voice anymore...I know I will sound even worse if i hear a voice for even a second longer! anyway, after hanging up the call, i emailed the lecturer right away...and that barbarian still rang me up....around 11pm...

Maybe she doesn't understand english...or maybe she just fell in love with my voice...whatever it is, can anyone tell me how to say "don't call me" in indian language? or " i hate you" or "you are a pest"?

As for that witch lecturer, i will definitely FILE a COMPLAIN as thick as a dictionary about her...from her teaching skills to how she dress! hmmpphhh!!! (kidding, i cant complain how she dress...hahahha! but she'll definitely get it..)

moral of the story: Connie react differently in different situation...

eg: the barbarians will always be barbarians, no point of complaining...
the lecturer may improve, so she get it...

BACK~

I know i had been MIA (Missing In Action) for a few days...ahem...more than a week..hahha!!

Okay, i'll start off with my rambling, as usual.....i had been pretty busy with my BUSINESS assignment...i really hate it since i am the one doing all the research and preparing the slides...AND the lecturer....has been getting on my nerves! i emailed her on 17th march and the presentation date is 26th march...which means more than a week apart, right? she replied my email like this:

"It's too late for any enquiries now. You should have asked me earlier if you have doubts"

TOO LATEEEE?! *tuttttttttttttt* *tuttttuuutttuuutttt*

I just asked her if i should include SWOT analysis...it's not even asking her for any extra information...she just need to answer me a bloody YES or NO! (i wanted to reply her email like this : cut the crap, witch....just tell me include or exclude, straightfoward...)

Anyway, i am not going to continue about this matter...learn to love those you hate...hahhaha!

Hate to Love them, Love to Hate them...I LOVE barbarians and the witch~ (i can't love them, but i HAVE to LOVE them....)

Here are some pictures...heheh! my favourite part...FOOD...i have been eating non-stop...i guess it's due to stress...argh! put on weight again!!!!

Rump steak~ medium rare (A restaurant called Goose...)


Goose's Smothered Chicken Breast with bacon and cheese~


Eddie rocket's banana split...where my friend decorate it just for me~ (this is the advantage of having a friend workin there huh?)



The Ship and Mitre's alcoholic drinks...most of them are imported! i used to hate alcohol...but i love ciders now... (my friend and i decided to train my didi drinking~ he is only 19~ hahahhah)

Left to right : I dont know, fruili, Blueberry cider, Ninkeberry cider, Banana cider


Left to right: Hydes, 3 rivers, dragon something, Moonshine (8.4%), I-don't-know-cider, fruili, blueberry cider, ninkeberry cider, banana cider~ (there is one more...i forgot to take a pic...passionfruit cider)

Passage to India's Naan bread...Msia's definitely better...

Passage to India's pilau rice

Passage to India's Chicken Tikka Bryani Rice, Vindaloo Meat and Vege Masala (only 2 person eating this indian food...no wonder i put on weight huh?)


Passage to India's Lassi...i think Asha's mango lassi taste a lot better....but Malaysia's Thurkah's Mango Lassi is the BEST!

Babycream's Winterberry dessert and a Latte... my friend's treat... a day right after i was sick (10th of march...i cant resist food...so i dragged myself out to Albert Dock and i think my fast recovery is due to this dessert as well...hahhahah!)


That's it...this summarises what i did for the past few days...i had forgotten to take picture of a chinese meal where all my Malaysian friends had....too bad...it was really good...
Next tuesday, i'll be dining some Malaysian food...stay tune...
...
opps...did i mention about my assignment's deadline?
...
23 march, 26 march, 27 march, 1 april, 2 april, 21 april, 24 april, 1 may
2 may....i start my placement...NO MORE BARBARIANS~ hip hip hoorayyyy!
...
but maybe i gotta deal with some office politics, i guess?...but as a trainee...i dont think i'll even be involved...anyway, thinking of 2 of May is my drive towards finishing all the assignments...i have decided not to complain about others not doing their part for the assignments...coz i believe in KARMA...hohoho!

Monday 9 March 2009

blessing in disguise

i can't blog for the past few days because i was sick...although not fully recovered, i am able to blog and start doing my assignments...(after blogging, i'll start..)

I was really sick, and it wasn't normal at all....after having my dinner, i wanted to do the dishes...immediately after standing up, i felt dizzy and i thought it was just some balancing problem or blood pressure....then, i can feel my heart beat racing and my palms were sweating... i did panicked a little, but i managed to take the stethoscope and listened to my own heart beat...it was fine...after half an hour, my vision blurred and i vomitted...hahha! i am very sure it wasnt food poisoning...




i just felt really nauseous...in my mind, i cant stop thinking about all the assignments that i am supposed to be doing (especially the business group thing..)... i admit, i did cry when i was vomitting because i had to clean the toilet before i actually vomit! it was so dirty...and i think i had been playing tough and ignoring all those stresses that has been building up without my knowledge... being sick makes me feel so vunerable and lonely... i cant differentiate between reality and hallucinations... i kept hearing all those weird noises in my mind and i even thought two of my housemates came into my room to feel my forehead to see if i was having fever...

the next day, still feeling dizzy, i asked my housemates "did you enter my room yesterday with B?"

"Nope, B is at work and wont be coming back home until this afternoon"

So, i knew that i am hallucinating...hahha! i guessed it is because my mum and sis always touches my forehead whenever i am sick...so, i get this weird "dream"...then, my housemate hold my hand and said "you are having fever!"


umm...by the way, i dont even know i had fever until she told me...she gave me some medication and forced to me nap again...she gave me a wet towel and asked me put it on my forehead..i kept on drifting in and out of my dreamland and it really messed up my mind...i kept on dreaming about nonsense stuffs and a lot of calculations!! (it really kills your brain cells to keep on calculating some weird equations and talking nonsense to your imaginary friends...)


i was so scared that my mum would call me up! i didnt want her to know! i kept my skype sign in so that she'll assume i am watching some animation or something...my other friend told me that i might have low blood pressure too and asked me to drink some beverages to replenish my electrolytes and add more sodium in my diet..i guessed he was right...i drank Redoxon and some salt water and i feel so much better!

after going through this fever/low blood pressure (?? still not too sure), i actually feel so much better...maybe it's because i finally acknowledged the stresses caused by the barbarians and it is alright to collapse for once...eventhough i am still recovering, i feel so much stronger and ready to face all those assignments TODAY!

this ordeal is indeed a blessing in disguise...i had to go through hell to realise it's okay to cry and admit that I am weak...

PS: Mum & Dad, no worries, i wont be blogging about this unless i am perfectly fine...haha!

HAKUNA MATATA


what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger~


Friday 6 March 2009

half-dead~

yes, i am half-dead....and i can still manage to blog..i salute myself...hahha! actually my eyes are half closed...i am so sleepy..but i wanted to blog about my hectic day~
I woke up around 8am (i don't have any classes to attend...i am such an early birdie...ahem...just for today)...i made my breakfast and even prepare my friend's (the one whose heart is broken into million of pieces) lunch...she had kidney stones (tiny ones and she dont even need any sort of operation...just take some medication will do..)...so, i googled the clinical studies and read about what food she should avoid and what's best for her...i made her a list and sent to her through MSN...i prepared a kidney stone patient's diet for her...she should avoid tomatoes, so i made her crepes-salad (?? me and my creativity)...i mixed carrots, corn, green peas, cheese, thousand island sauce and mayonaise...(she is a vegetarian..which is a major challenge to me)...then, i made the crepes with flour and whole milk plus some melted margerine...
notice that there's a lot of dairy products? i'd read about these patients should load on calcium..so that's what i've prepared for her...
before giving her a surprise visit, i went to GYM...haha! i haven't give up on that...after the workout, i tried to search for her house...argh! i managed to find it after an hour (and i called her for direction..which ruin my supposingly surprise visit..)..after visiting her, i walked back and had my lunch....i after my lunch around 3pm, i went for swimming with my housemate...we started walking around 4.30pm...i managed to swim 10 laps today (20back & forth~)...
around 6pm, we went shopping..We bought A LOT! i think it can lasts a MONTH or MORE~ we arrived around 9pm...and here i am...blogging right after sorting out my shopping bags~



our shopping bags!!!


i don't know how i should wrap the vege, so i made 2 different wrappings~


This is before wrapping...it tastes GREAT~ i just love the cheese~

i don't know where my energy came from....i feel like i had done a lot of stuffs~ maybe i can skip gym tomorrow~ hehe!

beautiful song~

As long as stars shine down from heaven
And the rivers run into the sea
'Til the end of time, forever
You're the only love I'll need
In my life, you're all that matters
In my eyes, the only truth I see
When my hopes and dreams have shattered
You're the one that's there for me
.
When I found you I was blessed
And I will never leave you
I need you
.
Chorus:
Imagine me without you
I'd be lost and so confused
I wouldn't last a day
I'd be afraid without you there to see me through
Imagine me without you
Lord, you know it's just impossible
Because of youIt's all brand new
My life is now worth while
I can't imagine me without you
.
When you caught me I was falling
Your love lifted me back on my feet
It was like you heard my calling
And you rushed to set me free
.
When I found you
I was blessed
And I will never leave you
I need you
.
Chorus
.
When I found you
I was blessed
And I will never leave you
I need you
.
Chorus
.
I can't imagine me without you
.
PS: this song is in my playlist...i got addicted to it...haha!
.
I would like to dedicate this song to my family...i really can't imagine myself without you...i am really blessed to have you all as my family...i wouldn't trade it for anything... if reincarnation really does exist, i hope that i will reincarnate with all of you as my family members again...no matter how many times, i will make this same decision all over again and NEVER regret it even for a second...I LOVE YOU~

gone berserk~

i don't know what has gone into me...maybe too much stuffs to handle at once~
I went out for lunch and window shopping with my friend yesterday. After our delightful (full of juicy gossips) lunch, we went to Liverpool One for shopping...And when we entered the first shop of our shopping trip, she had the shock of her life.. she bumped into her ex with another girl and her ex casually walk up to her and ask..

"where's my hug?" (i definitely wanted to hack that guy into a unrecognisable piece of meat when i saw his *tut*-grinning-face)

His current gf STARED at my friend for a second and didn't even greet us...My friend, still dwelling in the relationship, was devastated....however, she managed to hug him and casually say "see ya around"

okay, for that whole afternoon, our shopping trip turned into loitering trip... she ended up pouring her heart out to me....i can't help but feeling sorry for her....we went to Costa Coffee for some heart to heart talk over a massive cup of hot chocolate....she still can't move on and she broke down in front of me...i accompanied her till late evening and as soon as i reached my room, i sign in my MSN and trying to light up her mood...

Today, she is even worse...my other coursemates and i accompanied her to the hospital for some blood test and x ray because she suddenly broke down in tears in the class...she claimed that she is too stressed and it causes some kind of back pain...i think this break up really take a toll on her health...i hoped that she can get over the jerk ASAP!

What's more, i have a business group and one of my groupmates went back to india and wont be coming back until next month! we have 3 in our group now...which is a big disadvantage as we have a deadline to meet on 26th march! she didn't even inform any of us!

And i divided some work for the group members and NONE of them did anything about it!! I ended up providing them all the details and all the research i had done!! i feel like i am the one who is doing the whole thing!!! i emailed them my research and asked them to print it out before the discussion and NONE of them printed it out!!! i am so FURIOUS! but i can't do anything about it!

My good friends told me to complain to lecturers about it...but i can't do it!! I don't want to make matter worse...and my housemates are having some kind of COLD WAR as well...i am not aware of the details, but it should be due to the mess...
So, to cheer myself up, i went for a huge subway lunch with a friend and really went for shopping...not window shopping anymore...Sorry, Dad, your credit card might just melt due to heat accumulation during card swiping~ hahahha!

if Dad's card melted, i'll use the one Bro gave to me~ muahahhaha! if i melted that as well, Alice, it's your turn~ muahahhaha! this is what i called love~ family love~ I'll show you guys what i have bought~


This is the best cure for broken heart~



A hoodie and tracksuit..for my gym~



straightener...i know my hair is straight, but i really wana buy it....

connie is SUPERB!

ahem...i am NOT bragging, okay? i am blogging the truth, nothing but the whole truth~ muahahhahahha!

i went to gym this morning...around 11am i guess....and workout for one hour...i came back, just turn on my laptop and sign in my msn...straightaway, a friend of mine started to chat with me...sharing problems and i ended up chatting with her for 4 hours!! really talkative...then, i chatted with some other friends as well...sharing some workout tips...hahha!

by the way, did i mention i haven't take my bath after the gym yet? hahahha! i know I sound dirty and smelly and sweaty...hahhaa! but friends come before bath, okay? hahha! after they decided to go to bed, i finally can take my BATH! i had never been happier to bath before..hahhaha! and suddenly, my housemate knocked on my door and asked me.....

"connie, do you wana go swimming?"

Umm......i was like....well, i don't wana go...BUT i just can't say it! i ended up going with her...without bathing...yucks...and i had to pay 2.50 for the entrance...it seemed to be a little money when CURRENCY is not taken into account..hahhaha! in Malaysia, it would be RM 12.50...I think the public pool in Malaysia costs RM1? I am not sure...argh...anyway, the money isn't the main problem...We have to walk UP-HILL and about 30 mins to reach that pool and 15mins back home...(the pool belongs to Liverpool University)...

I'll just take the walking part as warm up...but when i reached the pool, I am SCARED!....no, TERRIFIED!! it is 3.4M deep....It's way too deep for me!!! at first, i don't want to swim...(you have to obey the swimming rules...which is clockwise...) i had NEVER learn swimming before and i learned it by observing how people swim back in Malaysia...argh!!! i am not even confident to swim across! But i felt like i am obstructing the swimming traffic by soaking in the pool...so i decided to swim...in my heart, i was praying...

*pls, just don't let me drown....the life guard must stay alert*

in the end, i swam 7 laps (14 times) because they were closing at 7.30pm...i am lucky to be alive...hahhaha!

When i got back, my other housemate asked me another question..

"connie, do you want to go for a class tomorrow?"

The class she meant was either body pumping (where you exercise with BARBELLS) or Kick boxing...umm...

*my heart says* WHAT? AM I GOING TO DIE FROM EXCESSIVE EXERCISE?

*my reply* Yeah, if you want to...I'll check what classes they have...

Luckily, they are having X-biking...since she hates biking, we don't have to go!! yea~

Anyway, i really have a question for myself...why didn't i LOSE weight? argh!!! hopefully, it's due to muscles build up...not due to stubborn LIPO...hahhahhaa!

PS: i find it really hard to reject people...MUM & DAD, don't worry, I am going to be fine..I know you guys don't like it when i swim in deep pool...but I am really fine...because i have all YOUR GOOD GENES...hahahha! muaks!

my blog is repeating all over again!

okay...let's start of with the repetition...

I would really like to tell everyone to stop jeopardising the meaning of friendships... Why is it when a girl and a guy gone out for lunch, dinner or spend some time together, it will always be assumed as "having something going on"?

Is it impossible for the opposite gender to be just friends? Yeah, i know many people would say it is impossible...but i've got to make it CLEAR to everyone...

A girl and a guy can REMAIN as FRIENDS as long as they find each other repulsive enough to attract each other

So, from the above phrase, i know what you guys have in mind..."if they find each other so repulsive, they wouldn't even be friends, RITE?"

The answer is no...you can still be friends when that someone is repulsive...Scientifically explaining this....okay..a person will only attract to the opposite gender with a particular trait..it can be smell, feelings or physical features...So, this means that you can remain as friends with the opposite gender and STILL NOT attracted to them...OKAY?

And if those SHALLOW-MINDED person still think that opposite gender CANT remain friends forever, i have a question for you guys..Aren't you be-friending your mates' partners/ex? or even your siblings' partners? SO, ARE YOU ATTRACTED TO THEM AS WELL? ...(Well, you can just shrugged it off by saying human has conscience, so they won't get attracted to a person with such status)...it's your call...i don't give it a D*mn.. so, don't EVER judge my friendships...

Anyway, after rambling about this issue, i am really tired and i am NOT going to mention about it anymore..just hope that you (shallow-minded being), can actually WAKE up and realise the TRUE meaning of friendships...

Friendships doesn't take into account of differences in gender, age, race, physical appearance, colour of the skin etc...

whatever...really pissed me off...i don't understand what these people are thinking anyway... different point of view, i guess...

ps: i have a few really close friends and they are of opposite gender...and sorry to say, WE ARE NOT ATTRACTED TO EACH OTHER AT ALL...REASON?
