Halfway done

Hellooooo peeps!
The mid-term exam ends today yay!
Also all assignments are handed in and all presentations are done!
So no more burning the midnight oil and no more headache :D
Well maybe I spoke too soon
Cause our final is like 2 weeks away
Hmph :(
I don't really understand how the short semester work
We only study for like say.. A month?
And we have a mid term and final?
But at least we could graduate in a shorter period :)

If everything goes well from here,
I'd be done with Tamadun Islam dan Tamadun Asia and Hubungan Etnik
Thank god the final paper is gonna be MCQ questions not essay questions
Or else you're gonna see a hobo living in the library
Yep that would be me.
Maybe I'll drag Michelle along, so that's a couple of hobos :P

Ohh and our group had the sketch yesterday
Everything went well and the audience cheered loudly for us
So I guess everyone had a great time
I was so nervous before my scene cause I had to walk down the stairs with a 4-inch high heels
With everybody's staring. Imagine the pressure
Thanks to the experience I had with the heels, I nailed it! :D
I think acting is actually fun when your team mates doesn't act like an ass
So this is done, moving on!

Next semester I'm gonna be taking the major subjects for my course
So I'm actually worried that I might not cope well :(
But it has to start somewhere right?
Worst case scenario, I become a hobo in the library :P
Fingers crossed that won't actually happen.

Ohh and I found out one thing about the people in the university
They're all shy at first and they don't express themselves well
There are times where I just wanna strangle them cause they won't speak up
But after a month, miraculously they became friendly
They start to joke and share about stuff
Maybe they finally warmed up to us or they found the courage to speak to us
I'm happy for that change :)
It's just that the semester's almost over
And we might not have the same subject next semester
So it's a shame :(

I'm also having my semester break soon! 
Countdown 22 days to holiday woohoo!
I wanna go home so badly I'm actually thinking about what to pack home hahahah!
Maybe I will start packing next week :)

That's all for my updates this week!

Dark Side

Heyyylowww peeps!
So yesterday we had the meeting about the new script for the sketch
And I gotta say everything went pretty well from there :)
Now all we gotta do is get it over with then we're good :D

I gotta admit last night really brought out the dark side of mine
But don't worry, no feelings were hurt
I don't know how, but I managed to control the burning desire to slit someone's throat
Too much? That's how I felt anyway.
I get mad at people who doesn't give a damn
Or people who don't even bother to check the updates
I know that everyone might have more important stuff to do
But we're a team isn't it?
It is just unfair for people who actually spend the time doing things 
But I guess this is the thing about group work
There are good times but also there are definitely bad times

Except for all the crap we actually had a great time rehearsing our scene
It turns out to be a mix between romance, humor and a little action
I do wanna share with you guys about it
But I just cannot bear the chances of someone doing the same thing again
Don't worry I'll keep you guys updated about how it goes :)

Some might ask, why are you making a big deal out of this?
Chill out it's just a sketch.
Well dude, I don't know about you but for me,
As long as there's marks for it, I'm gonna take it seriously.
I want the best work done with the least amount of time possible
It's just how I do things, you can either agree or disagree :)
Doesn't matter to me :)

To my group members, I apologize if I wasn't exactly friendly yesterday
And that you feel pressured because of me 
At least we got things done now :)
That's what matter to me.

Also thanks for coping with me, you guys are pretty great :)

Mid-Term Exam :O

Hey peeps!
So it's an exam week here in the university
They call it a mid-term but who are we kidding we've only been studying for a month
Oops wait it's only been 3 weeks cause we had a week holiday 
But the teacher is putting in half the syllabus into the mid-term
That's basically my reaction

The worst part is when the teacher says the notes she gave isn't really sufficient we gotta go to the library and refer to the textbook
I have mixed feelings
It's kinda between 'I'm falling apart' and 'Are you effin kidding me'
It kinda feels like this
 AND

Don't take me wrong I have nothing against going to the library 
To be honest the library in the university is a magnificient building
It's scenic and calm and you can see the lake and all
But the problem is that
The distance between the library and my block is North Pole vs South Pole
And it's a freaking uphill road
Can you imagine cycling all the way up?

I've got 3 subjects this week and so far it's 2 down, 1 to go 
Plus there's 3 presentations going next week
I just can't wait for this semester to be over!
I wanna go home!

Ohh there's something I wanna share :)
One of my teachers think it's gonna be funny switching our presentation to a sketch
Yeap. A sketch
The time given was a week and it's 15% to our final grades
Great. Just great.
We were actually good to go but then some other team came up with the same idea we had
So for that we have to redo the script 
Quote from our group leader: "Yep we're gonna die"
With the exam week some people can't make it to our next meeting
I just hope everything goes well from here.

XOXOXOXOXO

Unwell

Heyyylowww peeps!
Well I actually did not expect to blog anytime soon
Cause with the internet speed I'm given 
And the starting of my university life
Blogging just seems to be a mission impossible over here
But I finished my assignments weeks before the due date
So... Here I am! :D

There was a 5 day holiday last week so I went back home
And it's proven
Nowhere will ever feel more comfortable than home
I miss my family, my house, my room, my car, the food and the internet speed
I always thought I'm not gonna get homesick
Since the university is merely a 2 and a half hour drive from home
But that's not true. 
No matter how far/near you are from home, if you're not living in it, you're gonna get home sick
Well at least that's the case for me

After the 5 days break, the first thing that welcomed me back to the hostel, is a cold
I caught a cold on the very first day back here
It's like my body saying: "Dude, go home!"
That is when I really feel the homesick kicking in
I gotta take the meds on my own, remind myself in the next 8 hours
Take vitamin supplements, Check body temperature.
All by my own.
My mom is not here to make sure I'm okay,
My dad is not here to make sure I have an appetite
My brother is not here to make sure I'm not dead.. yet.. :O

But I guess this is a part of growing up
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right?

Ohh and here's an advice to everyone.
Always bring enough cash for grocery shopping
Because you wouldn't know when your credit card cannot be authorized
I almost got a heart attack yesterday, here's a thank you note to my mom for teaching me to keep emergency money with me :D

Ohh and one of my lecturers wants us to do a sketch instead of a presentation
On a exam week
The sketch is worth 15% for our final course grade
Great. Just great.
Did I mention we should dress up for the sketch too? 
But at least my group members were cooperating on this
Hopefully this sketch is gonna turn out to be a good one.

I guess I can conclude that this week haven't been great
But it's all gonna be fine cause
Tough time doesn't last, tough people do :D
