A list to pamper myself

I know it is too early to create this list and exams have not even started yet. In order to get myself some movation and something to look forward to, I have come out with this list for my holiday.

Things to do for my year end holiday :-

1. Compile a book of Korean Cuisine Recipe

2. Try to cook at least one of the Korean dishes

3. Clean and take out all my sister's books on my bookshelf and replace them with my novels

4. Buy Harry Potter 2nd book which I have lost and Mitch Albom's "Tuesday with Morrie"

5. Practise my piano skills (my piano skills are really horrible :S)

6. Clean my sister's wardrobe and replace it with my own clothes (Haha...conquer my sisters' things)

7. Go to eat and explore somemore restaurants in Kuching.

8. Sing K at the Spring

I can only think of these so far. *Not bad...Urm...will look into these again.

Exam Phobia is back :(

Haish, my exam phobia is back. I have reached the peak of my stress level. Migraine, indigestion, weird stomach contraction and gastric, they are all coming back to haunt me. Lucky for us, this time we only have 2 papers. UKMians, good luck and strive for the best :)

I walked a mile with Pleasure;
She chatted all the way;
but left me none the wiser
For what she had to say.

I walked a mile with Sorrow;
And ne'er a word say she;
But, oh! The things I learned from her,
When the Sorrow walked with me.
- Robert Browning Hamilton -

Where is my luck?

Alright, what I can say is that I really do not have the luck this few weeks or perhaps months. Sometimes, I feel that I have taken the wrong course. There are lots of unanswered questions...Why is it we have to take some of the courses? Why is it we got this lecturer though we did not chose her at first? and why is it our hard works eventually turned into bubbles? There are so many whys. All of these make me feel so dissapointed and stressed out, worse still they make me feel like I am not myself anymore. I will easily explode and feel angry. Sorry friends, if I offended you all these few days.

For her (some of you might know who I'm referring to): I really hope that someday you'll realise that what you have done have actually given people troubles, tears and stress.

This is what we can learn on how evil versus good which I read from Mitch Albom's, "Have a little faith":

"...how the same things in life can be good or evil, depending on what, with free will, we do with them. Speech can bless or curse. Money can save or destroy. Science can heal or kill. Even nature can work for you or against you: fire can warm or burn; water can sustain life or flood it away.

And this is a piece of advice giving indirectly in the book too:

"...and well, why doesn't God jump in? Why doesn't HE eliminate the negative and accentuate the positive? Because, from the beginning, God said, 'I'm gonna put this world into your hands. If I run everything, then that's not you'. So we were created with a piece of divinity inside us, but with this thing called free will, and God watches us everyday, lovingly, praying we will make the right choices."

At this moment, we can only let the Almighty takes charge of our worries and troubles. I really really hope that there will be rainbows after the rains. Let's pray hard for this, my friends...

Teaching Profession

Why is it people always think bad about this profession? I am kind of pissed off when people asked me every time, "Why do you want to enter this profession at first and particular this course which only provides you with qualification in teaching English?" and rolled their eyes. It happened yesterday again when I met my aunt's friend. She continued, "Why don't you chose something like translation then you can teach both languages?". I really felt like telling her, "Do you think we were given a choice to choose?" and "excuse me we aren't that bad at all. At least we're the chosen ones". This is really sick! May be some people that 'belongs' to this profession have bring us shame and disgrace.

A place to look forward to

Must Go Place: Everland

Another Must Go Place: Teddy bear museum

At last, I discovered something to look forward to. Academic writing is such a depressing thingy to me. I can neither move forward nor reverse. Thank God! Discovery Your Seoul spices up my life. Now, "everyone can fly". Airasia is offering low flight ticket to Seoul with departures till 4 August 2011. I knew this from my deary Mummy~ Thanks Mummy for updating me on our next year trip ;p

Mixed feelings...复杂的心情

I have mixed feelings today. Today is the 101st day after my maternal grandma passed away. It also marks a big history in my life. My beloved family has migrated to San Francisco, USA. My tears was rolling around my eye balls when I hugged my dad and bade him farewell. It caused my dad to sob too *sorry dad, your useless daughter couldn't control her emotion. I became extremely emotional when we headed to the different boarding gates to catch the different flights. Hopefully everything is okay there and I wish them best of luck.

It was raining cats and dogs today when I reached Bandar Tasik Selatan KTM station and I had this crazy though about putting 10 cent into my piggy bank each day starting by today. So,here goes my 1st 10 cents in the Japanese doll piggy bank. (Haha...mapleandclover mistresses, now I have discovered how to use this piggy bank) Ermmm...how full will it be when it reaches the day I go to visit them in US?

Perhaps the rainbow that we saw when we visited our "Popo" is a good sign that was trying to tell us it is good to let them have a try in the new place. I put all my hopes in your hands my Lord.

Aquaria + Moving to block D + so on ~

The foursome (Ah Sze, Olivia, Wawa and me ) went to Aquaria yesterday. The trip was not up to our expectation especially Ah Sze's. She rated it 5 out of 10 XD (Mind you the Genting Trip last year on 11/11/09 was rated 10 out of 10 and even Jong's Crocodile Trip was rated 6 out of 10).

Moving to another block is very tiring and now I'm still in the process of moving out those things from my room, which is soon going to be my 'ex-room'. I wonder will I get back the same room after 2 months? Hopefully, I will get back the same room because I am used to it already. Well, now I am having a difficulty to choose what are the things to be kept and what are the things to be thrown away especially shoes. I shouldn't have spent too much on them. Good bye 16F 403~

My dad told me that we are going to take some new family potraits with our beloved 'Gong Gong' this month. Potrait taking was actually one of my late grandmother's wish. Sadly, we can't fulfill her dream when she was still alive. If not, there will be 11 family members (our family together with grandpa, uncle and auntie) in those family potraits and not 10. Sometimes, I still can recall how my grandmother used to call me "Sei...La". I really miss her especially these few days. This again shows that we must not hesitate when we want to do something because we can't predict what is going to happen on the next day. “没有什么怕做不到的，只怕你不说，不做”. "Not to be afraid of failure, only have to be afraid if you feel hesitate to say and to do something"

We will be going for our practicum starting next week. Wishing all cohort 4 all the best and see you all again in July =). As for SMK Putrajaya Presint 9 (1), see you on Monday~
