tiring weekend

yes! i know i have finished exam last weekend, which was Personality Development. i did it badly. the questions are quite easy, but i did not study well for it! then there goes my 20%. think i will just pass with the passing line... wat am i talking about. i am actually having computer lab right now. so i am not concentrating on what i am typing (much). last Saturday, my sister moved into her new house! at the moment, it is still quite messy as we do not have enough time to clear the things up especially the study room, the master bedroom. now we get to enjoy aircond all the time! and i have got my own room there, too! one side of the wall is purple colour. and i have my own queen sized bed! all my life I have been sleeping on either super single sized bed or a single bed. i did not help much in the house last weekend as i was really tired. i did not have enough sleep for the last 4 nights. i feel like i am a walking zombie and I want to express my dissatisfaction on something. well, normally i do that by singing! i think i will do that tonight. will be singing Tohoshinki's songs (as usual). now i am CRAZY over them. dunno how it ended up this way.

everytime i meet up with my friend, Juju, we must talk about Tohoshinki. she's is turning me into one of the fangirls that will go "kyaa kyaaa" over them! ROTFLOL! she just bought a DVD concert of Tohoshinki's, which is their 3rd Concert Tour 2008 "T". it cost RM119! OMG! she is willing to buy it! LOL!! i will have to wait till this coming Friday to watch the concert together in my room! then the whole night we will go "kyaa kyaa". and I have my speaker (does not have the woofer type. it is the old timer's speaker) to boost up the energy! LOL!

i will be hanging out with my besties tomorrow afternoon. I wanna get my hair a trim. it is too long and it is hard for me to manage it as well. and i am going to buy other stuff. i have not made up the list yet. hopefully my expenses does not go beyond RM100. hehe...

busy weeks!

ahh... last few weeks I was so busy with assignments and midterm exams! so tiring and stressful! did not have enough time to rest. luckily my body system did not break down (eg. getting sick). I have passed up 1 Quality individual assignment, 1 Educational Technology wiki (group project), ... i forgot the rest already. I sat for 3 midterm paper for the past 2 weeks. glad that is over. but now i have to worry about my coming assigments that needs to be handed in by the end of this month! argh! i have not gotten anything done! and i got another exam tomorrow morning which is Personality Development. covers 4 units of the subject. and i have not even go find my notes which is probably stacked up somewhere in my super messy room.

that aside, I have got my EYES on TOHOSHINKI (aka Dong Bang Shi Ki, DBSK, THSK, TVFXQ, TVXQ)!! of course, i only listen to their Japanese songs. LOL! not the Korean and Chinese songs. [bias, aren't I>] I got attracted to them with their Jumon~Mirotic~ and Sennen Koi Uta songs! then my friend, Juju, is a HUGE fan of theirs. so she got me hooked to Tohoshinki by giving me their albums and single album. Then i listen to their songs everyday. I only liked a few songs, especially the ballads. hehe... their single, Bolero, which was released in January 2009, is one of my favourite! their latest single, Survivor, which will be out by the end of March, is not so nice to me. hehe...

ok la. i need to do 1 assignment which i have to pass it to my member (the editor) and I have to study. otherwise i would not be able to get enough sleep again. (ARGHH!)

Pangaea activities

with Toshi-san. with Yumi-san

well, i want to write about my day with Pangaea. You can read more about Pangaea here. I signed myself up to be part of Pangaea's facilitators. Our job is to guide the participants, which are the children, in the activities.

Pangaea has just opened its network in UNIMAS. So we will be having our monthly activities here at the Faculty of Information Technology (FIT). FIT is contributing their tech gadgets for us to use. For our 1st meeting, the children did Tako Introduction, which is a pair is formed according to the playing cards they have. They are paired up with the same number printed on the playing cards. the young children were shy to ask their older partners about what they like. I had to help loosen up the tension for this pair who consists of 1 teenager boy and a 10-year-old boy. the younger boy was so shy to speak, so I had to explained to him how to do the Tako Introduction. So I had to ask the older boy to start asking the younger boy about his likes and vise versa. It went quite well during the Tako Introduction for every pair. Then each pair had to introduce their partner about their liking to everyone. We have to clap our hands after each participant introduced their partner.

the next activity was drawing a house and a room of participants. they drew houses according to their own creativity. Everyone drew their houses beautifully. Some of them used bright colours and their houses looks attractive to look at. while the participants were busy drawing their houses/rooms, we lead one participant after another to take their pictures. they have to snap a picture of a happy face, sad face, a free style, and a full body free style. after that, we led them to a computer nearby to record their voices by saying "their name", "hello", and "thank you". I was there to check the checklist, recording who has done what. It was quite tiring as I had to rush here and there and asking the participants for their names. hehehe. but it was fun as well. I did not interact much with the children. I guess because the facilitators outnumbered the participants. so some of the facilitators just stood there, did not know what to do! I can say that I was one of them!

the activities ended at 12.10pm. after the closing speech made by Mr. Inoue (or was it Mr. Iwato), the meeting adjourned. All the participants were eager to come back again for the next meeting, which will be on 28th March.

to see the group picture and read the summarized report, read it here. That is all from me. Sorry for the long post.

:D

wow! i do not know it has been how many months since i last wrote an entry for my blog! first of all, i had a wonderful semester break which was from 4th week of November to end of December 2008. then i came back to Unimas in January. then I had mid-sem break because of Chinese New Year for a week. I went back to Sibu 4 days before Chinese New Year.

I had a great CNY this year. Met all my close friends. had a dinner reunion with former St. Mary's students of my batch. but this year's flood is the worst compared to previous years! the whole town was flooded (note: only the main town!) last Saturday. I just came back to Kuching last Sunday. I am so lucky to be staying at my current house now in Sibu. if not, i would not be able to go to airport from my former house!

2 weeks later...

wahhhh! it's been a long time since i've last updated my blog entry! the whole 10 days spent in Kuching at my sis's house, i was too busy cleaning the house! and then i played with Beybeb too (became a babysitter, what else!). now i'm back in my hometown, relaxing. well, i'm indulging in lots of food, too! there's the dabai/okana (some wild fruit that has black skin. i'll upload the pics next time), fish, veges, etc. LOL!

i havent got anything much done in sibu yet, so that's all i will be writing!

one LAST paper to go!

yes! i've sat for 5 papers! and today's paper i nailed it BAD! ugh! didn't have enough time to study all the chapters. so i ended up using my common sense instead! but it's wrong anyway. haih. 50% go bye-bye for today's paper!

i ate dinner with Shiela at Expert Food Centre at Jln Song. i spent RM10 for my own meal. ish.. ordered too much of the smoked veges. and it's SPICY too! they put too much chilli powder onto the veges. our tongues were burning most of the time. so we had to take time eating them. i ordered fried kuey tiaw with clams. it was nice!

i managed to wash my clothes which i unintendedly soaked them for more than 24 hours! and the water stinks! luckily it didn't smell too bad after i rinse them with clean water.

oh yea. this morning i slept for less than 2 hours. then the moment i woke up, i had puffy eyes with black rings around my eyes! scary! then continue my sleep in the afternoon for about 4 hours. i'm getting sleepy again right now. really need to catch up with my snooze before my last paper. and i haven't studied a single thing (AGAIN!). heard that the paper is going to be tough. i bet it's the toughest paper among all the other subjects that i sat for.

that's all for now. wanna sleep soon too. おやすみなさい　(good nite).

2 more papers to go!

yesssss! i've sat 4 out of 6 papers for my final exams! i think i won't be scoring much for my Basic Statistics paper! ugh! all the answers i don't have confident in them! lol! got 2 more papers to go, which is Organizational Behaviour and Human Resource Planning, Recruitment & Selection. My OB paper is on Sunday, not Saturday! thank God! *phew*

well, now i'm writing in coz i just feel like writing about my feelings of relief! oh yea! after ourStatistics paper, we went to After Three (an eating place) somewhere near Padungan. the prices are reasonable. it's air-conditioned. i ate grilled rosemary chicken with honey chrysanthemum tea. then i added 1 scoop of chocolate ice-cream for my dessert! i think i spent around RM15. we came back to Unimas around 11.30pm.

that's all i update about. i always forgot to take pictures of the food i ate/going to be eaten. LOL!

final exams!

aaaaarrrrrghhhhhhhhh! still having exams right now! 4 more papers to gooooooo! the 1st paper was Effective Teaching and Learning (ETL). ETL was ok. think i can score it. But i'm kinda scared for my Career Development (CD)! can't really apply the theories learned to the case study given! argh! hopefully it'll turn out fine!

another SHOCKING news. My Organizational Behaviour (OB) paper has been shifted from Sunday morning to Saturday morning. the night before will be Basic Statistics paper. both are K-I-L-L-E-R papers! arghhhhhhh! i was really stressed out by this announcement! oh. another thing. THEY (the lecturers) DID NOT EVEN ANNOUNCE IT TO US BEFORE ANY OF THE PAPER! damn... they just stick the announcement at one of the notice board near to the entrance of the exam hall! cilakaa! haih... need to sing more to relieve stress!

oh man... i think i won't do well for this semester. my mum is SOOOOOOO gonna K-I-L-L me! and i hope i still get CGP 2.0 and above for the study loan to be banked into my account! otherwise i don't have money to spend! >.<

ok la. just wanna let go some of my stress here! tomorrow i will be sitting for Japanese Language paper. hopefully i can score it and pull my grades up! :D

next update will be after my LAST paper which will be after the 11th. Wish me lots of luck! Thanks!
