A week more!

I officially ♥♥♥ Thursdays because it's the only day which I have absolutely nothing to attend to at all. Mondays I have violin class, Tuesday for this week I had work but after this, I'll ♥♥♥ Tuesdays too lol. Wednesday nights I have work, Fridays till Sundays' full day of work, work and work ughh.

My dad's been complaining that I've been bumming too much and having too much of free time and that I should at least find myself another part time job. What he doesn't understand is I purposely did not want to have too many days occupied with work so that I can use the time to practice. Otherwise, all I need to do is just request and I'll have a whole list of new students all waiting for me. Not bragging but violin teachers are really hard to find nowadays. Violinists are either really good that they venture more towards the performance line rather than education, or they're not good at all. Mediocre violin student like me can't choose to do much but just teach and improve myself. Well, it's not that I totally hate teaching anyway. I kinda enjoy it but I know very well teaching's not what I really really want to do.

Alright, time for lunch. What's next? Hrm. Should I practice or work on the 'About' page...

The Square Hat

Finally! It took so much of my time just to get this layout all set as the way I wanted! The banner will not be permanent. The rest will pretty much stay unless one day I decide to experiment with the ever confusing codes again. I've been concentrating too much on this damn thing! I think now I kinda know how my short sight mysteriously worsened... I can no longer walk out without my specs or my contact lens anymore boohoo.

Anyway, I attended my first violin lesson today. And got lost while driving to my teacher's house -_- I think I can hear snickerings already.

It's not my fault that I'm hopeless with directions! I followed what she told me and probably there's some sorta miscommunication or something, the road didn't turn out to be as described and yeah. I was lost. In the middle of somewhere I didn't even know the name. I'm so good at it. In the end I managed to find the way there by asking a few people who were kind enough to show me the directions.

Took my graduation robe without any waiting or queueing at all, unexpectedly! I've heard from people saying usually students start queueing since early morning (like 6am) to avoid getting the leftover sizes (L, XL, XXL, XXXL, XXXXL wtf seriously, I saw this). A bunch of us couldn't be bothered. Some went at 10am, some 12. Me and Cat, after lunch. Got everything within 10 minutes. It's because earlier before we finished our final semester we've already filled out a form regarding our robe's sizes so basically everyone was sure to get what they wanted. It wasn't as 'pasar' as what we thought it would be lol.

Ok bedtime.

Fast one!

One quick update before I go to bed.

1. First, the good news is that I've recovered from all the sickness YAY! I was so weak on Monday that I couldn't even get myself up to attend my first violin lesson so in the end I had to tell my teacher I couldn't make it and she managed to spare this early Wednesday morning for me instead, which is tomorrow, which explains why I MUST sleep right after this.

2. Tomorrow I'm supposed to go to uni to get my freaking graduation robe which cost me RM100 mcb. If it's not because of my graduation certificates and transcripts which I can only get AFTER I return the robe, I will surely keep the robe. Yes, that stupid scroll during convocation is only a fake thing, I just found out. Now you know.

3. I'm getting quite bored of this layout already frankly. I'm actually working on another layout now, something I can have more flexibility with, something which allows me to add a touch of 'me', something that has the "older posts", "home", and collapsing archives function. I like this layout a lot, the simplicity and only hints of colours in it, and especially the ever-changing profile picture at every entry but for long term, I don't think this is good. It's difficult to look for older posts. And for some strange reason I can't seem to change the font size of the posts to the size I want. Which means everytime I posted, I actually had to resize them myself. And it's not just one click, I had to check them under html one by one. If I don't change, it'll be this size, so small and difficult to read. If I change it all the time, aiyo so mafan ok.

Ok ok, wanna sleep now.

Fever!

Monday, August 3, 2009
Yes, I'm down with mild fever, sore throat, cough and runny nose. This afternoon both my grandmothers kept pestering me to see a doctor saying "Nowadays fever is very serious wan!" 109862 times wtf. You see, it's not that I didn't want to see a doctor but... I... had... no... money...

T___________________________T

Am I the most pathetic person in the world or what?

Seriously. I don't have a single cent at all. Ok ok, maybe I do have a few RM1 notes wtf. Obviously that's not enough. I am so broke huhuhu T_____T I thought by going to work today Kim was going to pay my commission, that's why I die die also dragged myself up and went to work eventhough I almost wanted to make a call and tell her I can't make it to class. I wanted to tell her I wasn't feeling well - it's the truth this time wtf.

In the end after that she didn't pay me MCB!!! I regretted so so sososo much for going to work!!! Grrr.

Then just now after dinner, finally my parents decided to bring me to the doctor yay! =D

Came back with 5 packets of medicine - antibiotics, runny nose, cough, sore throat and fever. RM 65. Wah luckily my parents brought me and paid for me wtf. I have to take 7 tablets each time, damn. I've always hated taking medicines.

Ok time to sleep now. Tomorrow got violin class. Hopefully I'll feel better by then.

Work ughh

Today was made of work and big band rehearsal in uni. Ugh boring. Tomorrow, more work ugghhhh. Dreading to work is not a good thing. Not if it's gonna be something I might do in the future, and for life. Something to look forward for tomorrow is meeting Sim Mei, Esther, Kin Wai and maybe Wai Tuck for dim sum in the morning. At least it might be a good start for such a long day. Last week I fell asleep during lesson, while my student was doing his theory work. When he was playing the piano my eyes were already struggling to stay opened. And when he was doing his theory, I sat on the chair and fell asleep holding my phone cos I was typing a message before that. Wtf. I hope he (student) didn't realise it lol.

This trip's the best among all. Having Wk and also Esther and Maggie around eventhough the three of us only got to meet for 2 days. Expectedly broke the budget haha. It's nicer this year because he's not working (unlike last year) but instead was on his semester break so we got to go anywhere and everywhere hand in hand. And even if we're not out, we still see each other in the morning till night and the cycle just repeated. Last year because he had to work, I was home and he's out for half the day and we only got to meet in the mornings and after he's done with work and occasionally, during his lunch hour. And because of work, we didn't get to go out or travel much.

Expenses definitely was higher this time if compared to last year. Oh last two years, I don't wanna talk about it. I was there for only 2 weeks but our expenses... ugh. Anyway, I always believe that money spent can always be earned back if we work hard enough. Every time and money spent there was definitely worth it.

Green puppy

Today's itinerary: Lunch - Kim Gary. Entertainment - Redbox. Dinner - Pappa Rich. Supper - Waffles and corn in cup. I tell you, my appetite has expanded ever since I got back from Melbourne. I think it expanded even when I was there. Which is definitely not a good thing! =(

Pictures from Redbox at Sunway Pyramid today.






Omg look! It's Ju On! wtf






Doing the Michael Jackson WTF HAHAHA




Dunno why I look so lansi here.

And here's from Wai Tuck's camera phone after my camera's battery ran out. SUPER FUNNY SHIT HAHAHA! When I saw them in his FB I laughed so hard Wk (who was on Skype with me) asked me what I was laughing about.



I think I was chewing something.


Lol






HAHAHAHA


She was molesting me huhuhu T_T


HAHAHAHA


Boom Boom Pow! WTF WTF HAHAHAHAHAHA


Bought something while we were out today.


Hair clip from Mini Toons.

I've always been calling Mini Toons as the "lap sap shop" (rubbish shop) cos I thought they only sell useless stuffs like key chains, handphone chains, soft toys, stickers and whatnot. Until I found this hair clip which is by far, the only hair clip that is strong enough to clasp my hair together. If you didn't already know, my hair's very long and when I say very, I meant unusually long so it's very, very heavy and thick.

Ever since my trusty butterfly clip I bought from Singapore broke, I've never found anything that's strong enough for my hair until today. It wasn't cheap anyway. RM10 for just a big hair clip is definitely not cheap. But it's functional so, I decided to buy it. It's not easy to find a good hair clip nowadays.

Besides, this one from Mini Toons came in this adorable silhouette of a puppy. I wanted to get it in purple at first but all the purples' condition weren't good so decided on the green one instead eventhough it's obviously not a nice colour for that hair clip. It's not that I'm gonna use it outside anyway. I need something to hold my hair when I'm not washing it, or when I just wanna get all my hair away from my neck when I practise that's all. Shower caps clearly won't work for me. Rubber bands hurt cos hair too heavy, it pulls my scalp.

Okie time to sleep! Tomorrow got work at 10am huhuhu T_T

Oh btw, I went to the IDP office to enquire about some courses' requirements. Again, it turned out to be fruitless. I shall attend the coming Postgraduate Fair this August and get stuffs cleared. And wth why taking IELTS is so expensive! T_T
