Aloha Malaysia!

Haha...haven been blogging for some time..some might even guess wher I am at the moment...YES! as the title suggests..am BACK in the motherland, MALAYSIA!


In fact, its been a week oredi...and it was all so touching to have my friends to come straight to my place and go yum cha wiv me once i reach home and let me taste the long miss mamak food..hehe..guess this is wut frens are for..coz they really care..and they are even all so excited to announce it to the world that am back..wic then spoil my plan to surprise my girls..haha..nevertheless, I yet to contact some of my frens abt my return..


Many are bac from all around the world during this time, UK, US , AUSSIE, RUSSIA..u name it, we have it..and so this is an all so awesome time to organise a gathering with everyone...Yup, my fellow primary schoolmates or rather my primary school monitor did a real good job to organise a primary school gathering back to Kuen Cheng..hehe..our form teacher was so excited till she cant concentrate teaching once she knew we were at the school ground..


It was great catching up wiv everyone..some real long-time-no-see faces and some familiar faces..but most important, it was great having my BESTIE, Sue Faye to be back in Malaysia..9 months of not being able to talk to her on the phone...gosh..I jus cant resist calling her once i arrive at the airport..haha..back to the primary school gathering..As usual, the Gen-2 gang headed over to the primary school together..and this time we have sue faye with us..haha..it was all so fun to drive along with them again..and it was the time where sue faye witness the craziness of us..laughing all along..consequently, we arrive late for the gathering..LOL..and we console ourselves that VIPs usually arrive late...LOL..well it wasnt really all our fault coz we got lost..there are roadblocks outside my primary school..some construction was going on there.


the all-so-awesome 6M-ers ^^



Andy with his belated birthday present from All-of-US..:)





....and after the gathering at the school, we, as usual, headed to Mid Valley for more chill out session at Paddington's Pancake..








All in all, it was of great companions, great food and great timing for a gathering..thanks for organizing the gathering and bringin all the sweet memories back to Me..and I wish that everyone will still be in touch in future years..or maybe we shud have a gathering evry year during this time? i hope so! hehe

Krabi trip tomorrow with my besties! Woohoo~ cant wait!
Cheers!

Super careless!! AAh..geram :/

YES..I insist to use that as my title despite the main point was NOT about that! But let me express a bit la...
2 exams are DOWN! Yes..they are DOWN and chuck out of my room for now! From now on, dont talk to me abt OB or BF..aah..the minute i think of BF..i feel so geram about myself..am am so So BLIND! Or mayb I jus have a problem with ZEROs today..yea..the number 'O'..its either i add an extra zero to the amount or i misread it by one zero..GOSH! I spot 3 zeros mistakes today in my BF exam and sadly only 2 minor ones were spotted during the exam..The most hideous one was for my tax..and becoz of that 1 zero difference..I got the tax brackets wrong and then a person who earn $ 160,000 nid only pay $ 3000+ for taxes! I know..many people will 'LOVE' me to be their Accountant coz I help them to save a lot on taxes! BLEK! So so sad la..I got so angry of myself..of being so careless and blind!


BUT afta all there is a 'twist' to my day and I went from a 'grumpy' person to a 'super hype' one..yes..Bipolar Disorder..that is wut Jess say abt me when am back home..LOL...

Why so? COZ...My 'koko' is IN TOWN..yes..he is in MELB..ooh..not to confuse you..basically, I have 2 bros..one Elder and one Younger..the one I mention previously or often mention is the younger one in Malaysia..and this is the Elder one..

And so, today afta the exam, I headed to the city to meet him for lunch..YESH! Instead of my mom this time, he became the 'victim' of my afta-exam grumples ..once I saw him..I kept complaining how stupid and careless I am till he gota say ' Eh, so long din see u liao, dun see me then show me the 'wana cry look' oredi, give me a smile'..Haha..sorry la..din meant to welcome you dat way...


So to cheer me up, he passes me my PREZZIE and a bouquet of flowers..Well, wasnt expecting any gift from him though..! YUP! I have received my very FIRST present for my Birthday this year and yes..over 20 years of my life, the MOST EXPENSIVE present! Yes..its still early..but this serve as a hint to those of you..have u got my present yet? LOL..


Guess what I got for my birthday?


Janet Tham's FIRST 20th Birthday Present for the Year!


MONT BLANC


Meisterstuck Platinum Hommage A W.A.Mozart Ballpoint Pen


The word 'MONT BLANC' on the plastic bag shocked me once I got the prez coz I know its super expensive altou being the kampung person, am not really sure wut the brand was promoting for..coz at first I tot it was a gift that my koko bought for himself..ooo...












Each rose for each birthday~ sweet :)

Well..he said this is to compensate me for all those years that he didnt present me with a prezzie on my birthday..this is because..we seldom see each other..its like the last time I saw him was 3 years ago..so the next time..I wudnt know when it is..

Neva been rewarded so well afta an exam..and now I think I dun deserve such an expensive gift...Another reason was that..He, being the very proud 'koko' of his sister, thought I would be graduating this JUNE! Yes, he lost track on how old I am..thinking that am graduating soon and becoming a LAWYER very soon..and so,the signing pen that I need as a lawyer..I was super SWT when I heard that..maybe..he is just being overconfident about me..to be a Lawyer..I still hav a LONG LONG way to go..and am not sure if i could do it..

And and, while waiting for my pen to be engraved, we went to Louis Vuitton's boutique at Collins St to wander around..coz if I go in on my own I sure kena shoo wan..coz obviously I cant afford anything in there...and so this time, I ambil kesempatan go in with my 'koko'...Obviously, I din miss the opportunity to touch my hands on my 'Adored' bag..Owh..the feeling is just so good..so so..Enjoy enjoy sahaja la in the LV shop..admiring all the expensive stuffs and looking at all those bags..But my 'koko' will only get me something useful, not all these material stuffs..hehe..so nvm..I will earn my own money to get it in future! Yes, Ai ming, we sama sama earn money to get our 1st LV bag ok?..hehe..

All in all, I just wana say:

'I FEEL SO PAMPERED NOW'

and

'I 'HEART' BOTH MY BROS'

The reason being:

One is in Melbourne to support and cheer me up during this dreadful exam period and Another in Malaysia is already busy being my birthday planner, thinking of where I can celebrate my 20th Birthday!

Am starting to look forward to my next year's bday oredi..coz its my 21st..a Huge one in my Family..and start wondering wut gifts I will get..*grin*

Hmm..one more paper to go..have to gambate afta tonite oredi...and pray hard that my results will be good for both OB and BF...*fingers-crossed*

Good luck for exams everyone!

Swot Vac

Its Sunday now...and swot vac is gonna end on this very day..the battle of Melb Uni Examination Period will officially start on the 9th of June 2008..Whoever's birthday is on this day..bad luck! And my very first paper- Organizational Behavior starts on Tuesday 10th of June 2008! So soon, 3 days more! Gosh..am not prepared seriously...


Just finish a discussion with Jess about OB..yea..I have got my notes in front of me ..nevertheless, they are not in my brain! Whenever i study OB, I neva fail to be stressed..the reason being is that you neva koe what the subject wants from you..its so subjective that u cud basically write anything..and you r being marked this way: if u get the point that so happen to be in the marking scheme, u score! and Voila! Ur results is extremely well..but well, am alwis the unfortunate one who CANT read their mind..and thus, alwis..i dun hav all the things they want..so my marks alwis end up mediocre..Not much hope...Just a H2 grade that I pray for..


Its 12 am now..shud be in bed or mayb still studyin..but afta a long discussion with Jess, am too tired..and cant sleep..have been studyin business finance to hide myself from OB..but yea, its time to face it..exam is in 3 days time..and business finance is just following tidely 2 days after..

I have totally no idea how wud I fair for this exam..coz am just immune..am just gona step into the exam hall and do my best..and step out..feeling relieved..


Haven even started on Intro Econs which is on the week afta..oh well..this is the first time I started revision that late..Really..no eye see..


Okla..just a little update..and yes, I hope to regain my smile very soon~ Ooh..Pray hard for me for this exam..and wish me luck!



Miss everyone <3

Miss it...

Just saw Ai ming's blog about her BMW and how her dad had helped her to upgrade it till it looks like a BMW M3 now...such a lucky gal..


And now, it makes me miss my BMW back home...Am not as lucky as Ai Ming to have my own BMW...its just my father's car and I drive it whenever am back..oh well..oni started driving last December..and now I miss it..maybe its all the fun that I had driving it all along with my friends..the jokes..the laughter..it makes me miss everyone even more...


Well..its exam period now..the toughest period of all...but I will stay strong and get thru dis..Mom is not here dis sem to cook for me and so..yea..I can manage it on my own!

2nd Year First Semester 2008

Bling Bling! 2nd year 1st semester has walked its way down...and I couldnt even believe that this is happening..

YES! Am finally relieved that Legal Theory is finally OVER! See the emphasis? Its OVER and I have handed it in..But well..dis time i finish it on that day itself..Not intentionally or not becoz i cant write anything out..I have finished it 3 days earlier and went to see my lecturer about it..Nevertheless, he sees NO link between my 2 arguments and so I gota do some extra research for a small point n then add a whole chunk of paragraph to link my arguments..even my focus has changed slightly seriously..But oh well..everything is done by now!

Afta handing in my essay that day, I have got a headache..real bad..and I completely lost the mood to celebrate or cheer..or rather..u wudnt hav the reason to cheer seeing that exam is SO NEAR YOU yet u haven even start a bit of Revision!

Oh well, I promised my pies to watch a movie with them..and a dinner with Sally..so..yea..Friday nite was basically OFF! And then comes Saturday which is the 'stock-up-food-day' and cleaning day to prepare ourselves for SWOT VAC..and I end up all so exhausted at the end of the day that i have no mood to start studyin...:(

2nd year 1st sem was something different to me..and I guess its becoz of the mentality change I have..Not too stress anymore and more relax in a way..there r pros and cons..and there comes my experience of campaigning and running for an election...

Law friends are still the best as usual and I have met couple more of new friends at uni..Oh ya, not to mention my awesome group mates for Introductory Econometrics..have been working well with them..:) And so, all in all it was a great semester...apart from my demotivated experience in OB..still am not gona give up on it..I still stand a chance to score in the exam..Guess they really gona change their unfair system of marking our assignmts..how can 1 tute get all H1s and the others all score so badly?! Cant figure that out! All I hope is a H2 grade for my exam..H1 has long flew away from me..Nvm..I still have other subjects to fulfill my dream..

Haven been having much mood to blog and so I apologize for that...Great battle ahead..and yup..am gona work hard from now!

Its as thou..am immune to the holidays coz I jus wanted exams to be later...and not so soon in less than 2 weeeks time..

So good luck to all my buddies who are mugging for exam now..All the best! :P

p/s: suddenly I miss my bro..oh well..he is the one who has been motivating me when am super stress with my essay and he is now enjoying his post exam holidays..AAH..lucky fellow!

Rytee, cheers!

Bad day or bad luck?

Finally, its my 100th post eversince I started blogging! Good news?

And coincidently, there is such an event that occur in my life today which makes it so eligible to be the topic of my 100th post! Well, is this a celebration or a signal to my future encounters? Of coz, I hope NOT the latter..am oredi in a very bad state with my studies...
seriously, dont add salt to the wound..
So, what is so 'AMAZING' that make it so special now?
It was really a WTH encounter and bleh! wasted my time!
Guess what?!
I WAS TRAPPED IN THE LIFT AT THE LAW BUILDING WHEN I WAS ABOUT TO ATTEND MY BUSINESS FINANCE LECTURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wonder if anyone curse me for dat but HELL, why am I so UNLUCKY today?
Well, dont panic..am safe and sound now..since am blogging about it now..
It took me a freaking hour to be in there in the lift with another unfortunate girl who has the same fate as me :(
It started like this....This gal and I were waiting for the lift at Level 3 outside the library and 'DING' u hear the lift calling and subsequently, the door welcoming u into it...Entering the lift, each of us press the button for our destination..am heading to Mezzanine...well...its reasonable for me to take the lift to Mezzanine when am in Level 3 rite.?..so yea..that is why I didnt take the stairs..
So afta 5 seconds, the lift wasnt moving..and suddenly we hear the lift operator saying:
'We are having some technical difficulties with the lift...Plz press the alarm button for assistance'
Me: 'Crap!'
Yea..I wasnt too shock when I realise that I was trapped..Instead, I was acting very calmly (Yes Jess, am not as lousy as u think OK, I din get 'beng kui'! Am not dat weak! *pfft*cant belive u say such thing abt me!)..and so I pressed the alarm button and informed the guard...
Minutes later, the security guards are all oredi outside the lift doors speaking to us..and ensuring that we are doing fine..The really funny thing was..the guard was so worried that she check on us every 5 minutes...repeating the question: 'Are you alright, the lift service person is coming very soon' and kept the conversating going..
The gal with me was just laughing all along and it was really kinda a relax experience in there..and knowing that I could have missed my lecture, I just sat there reading my law materials while waiting to be rescued out while the other gal called and talked to her friends on the phone..
After 45 minutes, the lift finally moved! Oh well, not in the normal way, but MANUALLY! The funniest thing is that the lift was actually pulled up to Level 10 and then the technical men just open the doors for us..and we can hear from the lift the conversations of the service men..so so funny! 'Pull somemore, Pull Pull...2 feet more!' LOL...Just wondering why must they get us up to Level 10 b4 they could rescue us when we are actually stucked between Level 2 and Level 3...Oh well, there must be a reason for it..
And so, after we are being rescued, we are required to lodge a report to the Security Department..and it was then that I saw all my fellow business finance colleagues stepping down the stairs and leaving the law building..crap! I gota go to the aftanoon lecture for a replacement..And it was then, Shan and Irina came to the Student Centre to meet me..
So nice of them :)
So, that was my very 'FUN' encounter with the lift...Not too bad perhaps..coz I got to know a new friend who is also from Malaysia..Hehe..
Anywayz, as for studies, am not being very proggressive these few days and yes, I start to feel the stress..and yes..am stress..got stuck with my essay..things arent goin as smoothly as I thought it would be..Sigh...
Well, I will just end here then...Will work my way through this pain! And yes..am already getting very pessimistic about my results for this semester...Sigh...
你嘲讽我,基因你不了解我
而你的不了我不介,
因你我各有所志。

Legal Theory

Well, I just cant tell how much I love you, Legal Theory..yes, u r interesting to me and the best part is..you let my thoughts flow...how good is that I thought..thinking that this time i wouldnt need to suffer BUT then just when I was about to start writing...u strike me again! Aah..is it just me procrastinating and not doing my work or really am stuck?!


Guess my nephew's look says it best...This is how you look when you do Legal Theory...Yup..the 'blank blank' look..very innocent rite? yes..we are the victims of the Legal Theory...



And the best part is..the 1st word that my nephew learns how to say is "APA?" And again, this is how you will respond when you are asked about legal theory..


SO, my conclusion is...Janet is working very hard on her essay..and hopefully, my skills of essay writing will come back to me very soon...


p/s: Got back my OB Mid term exam today, gosh..I really couldnt read the mind of the lecturers and tutor...why cant u just let me score a little higher..at least a H2B...or izzit becoz u just love the numbers of my marks and grading me that way makes u feel good? Oh please please...just be more leniant when u r marking my exam paper...and I promise I will work hard for the exam ..Deal?
