Take Home Exam

instead of a mid semester exam, for one of the subjects for my current semester, we went for a company visit. so after the visit....

prof:  you can write anything, 1 page, and submit to me and that will be the marks for your mid semester exam.
me: is it in report format?
prof: no. no need any format. you can write anything.
classmate: can be more than 1 page?
prof: no. only 1.

ya. he said write anything. so i betul betul write "anything". whole lot of rubbish, but have to sound convincing la kan? some hint of academics. pretend that i actually know what is going on. but seriously, i don't know what he wants. and 1 page? damn, i already took 4 - 5 pages of notes throughout the entire visit. funny. how to fit it all into 1? it only carries 10% so shouldn't make such a big fuss i guess.

well, here's the outcome.



i spent a whole chunk of my holiday writing this. damn! take that you. and good riddance. i'm done. finally.

my precious !

1st April


the title up there is referring to my weekends of course. ultimately, they're too precious to waste...

the thing is my mid semester exams are coming up. first reaction paper is on April 3rd.

my Mondays to Fridays are already hell. full of torture and deprived of fun... how could i? i just couldn't bring myself to spend the whole weekend studying...

instead, here I am at the badminton stadium in Cheras, waiting for the 3 semi-final matches of the Axiata Cup 2012 between M'sia and Indonnesia to begin.

got in with Ray's media pass and am allowed to sit anywhere I want :)

my view of the match

from where I am, I could also spy on Ray. Hee. make sure he's not off hitting on other girls or slacking :P

15 April


lol. this post is 14 days late! supposingly this post was blogged live, and i seriously intended to publish the post on the spot but the blogger app on my phone kinda fail case. cant arrange photos / insert them where you want in the post. still need comp to edit. ended up postoning this for so long! just to insert the 2 pictures you see above @.@

might as well continue and prolong this post a lil :)

updates:

i did so badly for my reaction paper! wished i had studied harder though. the questions were so easy and straight forward! didnt write much. spent more than half of the time in the exam hall starring at the questions and having the questions stare back at me.

actually, all the answers can be found in our lecture notes. am kinda horrified that i'm not that kiasu anymore! the bachelor me would have studied like it really mattered, would have been super confident, and would have trashed that paper in a flash. where has all my kiasuness gone to :-O

if only... yea if only i'd given a lil more time and heart to preparing.

i'm sure my baby Guchie would have done better than i did

the same weekend (instead of studying), i met up with 2 girlies that i have not seen in ages. and my, do i miss hanging out with them.

finally got to try this durian ice thingy. so hard to find someone to share this with as most of the people around me loathed the taste and smell of durians. well, they dont know what they are missing out! this was super nice! though i would prefer it to be creamier, i was already satisfied and oogling at how it made my taste buds feel :D

S and I finished it in less than 15 mins. lol.

things have not changed. and they never will :)

and i have another paper coming up this 17th (3 days time). and the bloody lecturer already scared the shit out of us. this exam contributes to 30% of the final grade. and the format: 1 essay question. write 14 pages. dafuq? why dont you go ahead and fail me already? see. i told you my kiasuness has taken a toll on me. it bailed when i needed it the most. lol. already have plans for tmr. how? ditch studying again? i've already decided to anyway.


lastly, would like to say that i'm really proud of myself for actually sticking to my 2012 new year resolutions so far:

Complain less

Love more

Be honest with myself

Say only things I mean

Make only promises I can keep

Keep the promises I make

http://vanillanstrawberries.blogspot.com/2011/12/gone-is-2011.html

am on track for all 6 of them ! yay! :D *beams* am glad that i'm able to stick by those little guides set by myself to help me be a better and happier person.


on another note, have got to set a reminder for myself.


dont forget to study! xD

A Crazy Last Minute Plan

2012, Mar 21

unintentionally attended one of the most exclusive parties of the year, on a weeknight, not to mention having to pull off sneaking out of class early, undressing in the back seat of a car, wearing ugly working shoes with a borrowed dress, and putting on make-up in less than 2 mins with a bunch of people starring at me...

pretty crazy, but amazed i actually did all that after being a retiree for so long. still, had a blast attending the event, all thanks to HT (mastermind) who came up with everything.

ticket to the partay

just before we went in. with HT

with GG

polaroid of us.

they had girls goin round taking photos for guests as souvenirs.

cool bartender mixing up drinks for us.

super like! coconut and black label. smooth. but idk the name.

it's kinda hard to describe my experience at the event. it not helping that i didnt take many photos that night, but just imagine lots of waiters / waitresses waiting on you, serving a free flow of delicate chocolate truffles, signature cocktails, and black label through out the entire night. deco was fab, setup was fab, stage was fab, layout of events was fab, everything was so classy and stylo. only let down was the music, thus making the whole night lack something essential.

still, it was great. and i actually got to go. there must have people wanting in but failed to get passes. lol. i feel like the passes might just have been wasted on me as i didnt party hard enough. apologies for that :P

Hand-written.

What do you do when you're all fucked up and no one else gives a fuck about you?

too much that i'm asking for...

squeeze in some time for this before i continue my robot regime @.@

it's been work non stop. and yeah, i'm already losing most of my human like behaviour and characteristics.

SEGi n UPM are killing me. it's like they've teamed up to murder me mercilessly from the inside. sucking away my vitality faster than i can recharge, leaving me barren and hollow. and i'm here, dying a slow and painful death

when i'm not taking orders from bossy bosses, running errands, rushing to complete tasks dumped onto me with ridiculous deadlines and instructions, i'm doing all that i can for my assignments, for the very sole purpose to pass and scrape through all my assessments.

would love to shut / power down my brain and other bodily functions and just blank out.

you wouldn't believe it, but through all this, i've actually learnt the meaning of true sacrifice @.@ cheesy, i know. but still, i've never had to sacrifice so much before! sleeping time, paktor time, family time, yumcha time, self indulgence time...

and i wonder... why did i ever sign up for this in the first place?

still, quitting isn't one of my options. i'm just not a quitter i guess :)

a smile! it's a wonder i managed to pull that off.

alright. break's over.



i miss slacking.
