Recently, I'm bombarded with a lot of negative energy-hence, the few emo posts. If I can conclude how my early 2010 is, I pretty much can say that it sucked to the max. I just wanna sit at home all day and sleep.At least when I sleep, the problem will dissolve away, even for awhile.
Other than sleeping myself away, I should thank god for making my life busy.I joined an exclusive book club and am on my way finishing the 2nd book. So far, I love the book and I have to admit that it does ignite my passion for reading again. A passion that died during my 2 years stay in Australia because of workloads of assignments and commitment to societies and stuffs. In addition, I have a part-time job. Teaching English and Science for Year 6, Form 1,2 and 3 students. I earn not much but the experience and learning process that I value the most. Why learning? Simply because I have to read Science books again before every class. Yes, I need to refresh memories and know the content of my teaching.A teacher should not be an empty vessel and teach the students.
I also do mentoring without pay. I participated myself in the academic tutor thingy recently...and I got myself 2 juniors as my tutee(or mantee, depends which terms you use). Hurm, did I mention that me and my girls helped a bit with the blue house cheerleading team? I swore to myself not to go near those things again..but hey, I spoke too soon. We helped a few bits of their routine but that's the most of it. Those girls(and guy) pretty much doing good on their own.....
..and as I'm writing this post, I actually have to go and prepare lunch already. Some of you already heard the story of how the maid ran off with her bf recently, jumping the ship, leaving us on our own. Now, I'm the part-time maid, serving ,my mum and dad this 1 week holiday. I do almost every housework in the house.Sweep/mop the floor, prepare bfast/lunch and dinner, look after mum's plants, look after the cat..and the list goes on. I so can feel that the domestic goddess in me is unleashed. My mum asked me yesterday whether she should employ a new one and this is my reply "There's no need.I do the housework 10 times better than the maid.Hurmph," and my dad just laughed as I did my second round of mopping.
From what I can conclude, keeping busy is the best way to take your mind off things. Definitely. When I tutor people and such, I learn a few things as well. Like, I HAVE to learn Science all over again every single Sunday and I learnt not to open the front door when the cat is outside the cage. Life is one learning process. Life-long learning.Haha, I'm talking rubbish now. Must be the side effects.
Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans.

television rules the nation
I'm glued to the idiot box all the way, this holiday.So many things to watch, so little time. Especially those tv series on Star World and those that the bf 'supplied' before the holidays begin.No more Alias, Smallville, Desperate Housewife etc anymore! Out with the old and in with the new. So, here's a list of what I've been watching:-
- How I Met Your Mother(HIMYM)-Despite being described as 'some cheap imitations of Friends' by someone, I just love the show and couldn't care less! Plus, been asking a few opinionated people regarding this issue and all of us agreed that it is nothing like Friends! Nothing!The jokes are way funnier and the dialogues got you thinking most of the time.My bf and Dan is responsible for making me hooked to HIMYM. I can just watch every episode over and over again and laughs.
- Avatar: Legend of Aaang-I know it's a Nickelodeon cartoon but again, who cares?? It's funny and appeals to all ages. Sani is the one who introduced the series to me and the bf....I remember how we used to watch this one over and over again while eating tubs of Rocky Road ice cream.Yum.Highly recommended.
- Entourage-a bit tad ole.I've been watching this one way before I went off to land Down Under. So edgy and entertaining...give you a glimpse of the La La Land Life. Currently I haven't watched the 5th and 6th season completely but am going to do so this short hols.Or try to...
- Glee- I watched Glee in Australia during that boring 1 month before going back...and I like it! Jocks and nerds in a same choir club? Way to go! Kinda similar to an old series that I used to watch religiously, 'Saved by the bell' where all the jocks befriends the nerds. Not to forget, they have some cool covers of popular tunes in the show.
- The Big Bang Theory- dear roomies Far and Syef and my bf(again) been raving about this one. Will definitely find some time to watch this one and see what's the fuss is all about.

One
While I was on my way to get some lozenges for my sore throat, I came across a few road signs of 'Klinik 1 Malaysia'.
Straight away, I asked AimanZ "Eh, selama ni ada ke klinik yang tak accept kaum-kaum lain?Weird,'
Correct me if I'm wrong, please.

Since that I'm officially done with my final sem, I need to plan my time carefully in order to spend my remaining days in Brisbane with quality minus the boredom.
Wait a sec, I don't think I've been doing that.
Fb, sleep, fb, blogspot, fb,fb,fb....erk?
I wanted to update my Tumblr but I have forgotten how to post entry in Tumblr. It has been a way looong time since I updated my Tumblr. I have a MySpace account but I've already forgotten the password long time ago.Not bothered to retrieved it.Friendster?Hell no, I'm thinking of deleting it.Twitter?Too lazy to think about it. YouTube?I don't know what to watch...I'm running out of ideas with the internet.Any suggestion?
My world revolves around technology.It seems that I need to rethink about my current lifestyle.
There's so much to do, so little time.I need to pack my stuffs for shipping, spring clean my room,return the books to the library and many others. I know I need to do these stuffs asap but I just couldn't be bothered!
Til then, I shall go do a marathon of HIMYM with my bf. Or sleep.Or I dunno....

According to me, bla bla...
I'm at the QUT internet lab at the 'mo. The Princhester's internet connection has reached its limit, so all the way to uni I have to go with the mission to complete my final assignment(s).
3 assignments and an exam this 2nd nov.I'm like a mess.My room is like a mess.
Random thought: You know what I'll miss THE most here?
-The awesome uni facilities. The good internet connection.And....the newer and reliable books in the library!!! Hello IPBA' s library and erm, UM's library...NOT!

Lame/Pathetic...and they know it
Kau tahu apa yang sangat sedih?
Bila orang yang kau kutuk tu lah orang yang kau nak kawan sangat-sangat.
Bila orang yang kau kutuk tu lah orang yang kau cari bila sunyi.
Bila kau cerita 'sob story' kau kepada orang yang kau tak kenali, orang yang dulu kau kutuk-kutuk.orang yang dulu kau benci.orang yang kau rasa tak 'cool' untuk dibuat kawan.
Tapi, bila terdesak, kau terpaksa menjadi hipokrit.
Seperti meludah ke langit, lepas tu jatuh ke muka sendiri bak kata orang.
Dan kau tahu apa yang lagi sedih?
Bila mereka meragui keikhlasan hati kau.

chivalry is definitely NOT dead!
I fell in love with a pak cik sale assistant at Myer today!
(Well, not literally)
Someone made me smile all the way home and it comes in the form of a pak cik.
Well, it is my 2nd encounter with the guy.The first time was ages ago and he is still as friendly as ever.
I was in Myer electronic department where I was browsing some stuff that I intended to buy(I did in the end),Along came this pak cik with the warmest smile ever on earth asking me if I need any help.Well, since I couldn't make up my mind buying that thing yet, I just smiled and said that I'm alright.Moments later, after consulting my bf, I decided to make the purchase, anyways.
So, the pak cik greeted me with that warm smile and simply said "owh, settle for that one only?" I said yup.Then he complimented the Cookie Monster shirt that I'm wearing, saying how he really liked the shirt(the Cookie Monster shirt is definitely a conversation starter, just like my 'twice as nice when I want something' shirt). But the best part has got to be where he actually took all the trouble walking from the cash register just to hand me the item that I bought!
I feel so like in a movie where some posh butler just handed out expensive fur coats, for me to wear.Erk?Does the analogy make sense at all??
Nevertheless, the pak cik really made my day, even for that moment only.And erm, kudos to that department of Myer! There should be more chivalrous-old-friendly-male assistant than the one with smug faces or the typical(found in Malaysia, especially) I-follow-you-around-until-you-want-to-scream-at-me sale assistant.I bet if I decided to take a poo in the fitting room, the latter will definitely be waiting outside with wipes ready for me.How annoying.
If I'm not mistaken his name is Jack.Hehehe.

I'm back to my 10 year old self
And today I got myself one* courtesy to miss Aliaa Z.Thanx, Aliaa! =)
Now, my childhood desire is fulfilled!(??)
* I always have this 'let-me-find-my inner-child' moment where I'll go all mental buying pencil colours and colouring book but always leave the thing untouched.Hangat-hangat taik ayam(Hot-hot chicken shit) lah katakan.

She writes good songs...or narrative stories?
Narrative Genres
Category:Fantasy(Fantastic stories)
Description: Imaginative stories that explore alternate realities and contains elements not found in the natural world.For example: Jeremy Thatcher, Dragon Hatcher(Coville, 2007) and Poppy (Avi, 2005).
-Taken from Tompkins(2005).
I found this excerpt from the textbook during Reading and Writing class this morning and was wondering that could Avi(2005) the author of Poppy, is actually referring to Zee Avi, who also has a song called erm, Poppy???
