So what have i been doing all this while? nothing much... just didn't have the mood to blog... registering for semester 2 courses was a nightmare... i started registering when it was opened at 9 a.m. but by 9.20 a.m., the geology courses were all filled!!! however i managed to secure a spot and another for mei lin during the add and drop week... going back to uni and settling money matters was quite unpleasant... many encounters with rude people (and they are working in an institution of higher learning! Wow... the clerks should go back to kindergarten to learn manners and morals!) with one unpleasant confrontation (not me but a friend but i felt so pissed off)!! somehow, there's something about uni that makes me feel abit depressed... can't actually put my finger on it but it's probably the mentality of the people there and the whole system... so it's really hopeless to hope something will change but rather just go with the flow... that's life!
i had a reunion with part of the hyperactive-chatterboxes in mcD... bought a cake for rachel and gave her a copy of "the 5 people you meet in heaven" for her 21st birthday! although cindy's wearing hear glasses, she looks so chic! like lisa loeb!!! it's just so fun to meet up with this bunch of friends! they're really keepers!!! anyway, we had another meeting on the 31st december and this time, wendy and hock yee came too. rebecca and heng yoong and nashua left before i arrived... we chatted in nando's, SACC... nice place but ugly exterior... the nando's guy was trying to be friendly (not in a bad way) but came out as abrupt and awkward... but nevermind... well, the reunion was nice... probably won't be seeing some of them till middle of next year or so... abit sad la...
went to midvalley megamall and klcc on friday with yen chyng and ban yee... it was really fun... we ate the ikan bakar (i thik the the one near my house tastes better...) and got pulled out to do a survey by this weird malay aunty... i was really worried she was some kind of scammer... but when we went up to the office on the boulevard, we saw some UM friends there who were working part time there... these research companies don't really do their job properly... they falsified data like our age and job etc... anyway it was about an advertisement for skII product. the ad wasn't too good... we got a packet of biscuits... then we went window shopping and after that off to kl... stopped by alliance francaise in ampang and was caught in a jam and heavy rain on the way to klcc... we nearly lost our way... klcc was quite crowded and everything was nice but expensive... we ended up each buying 2 tubes of chocolate coated digestives biscuits! ate mcD's and yummy vanilla with oats and raisins yoghurt! came back around 10 p.m... ban yee sentme home! such a nice gal!
i had my countdown at home and online... ran outside with zack when we heard firecrackers!!! so pathetic... but at least zack understood me when i said "zack, lets go see the fireworks!!!" hehehe... sort of watched i, robot... must sit down and watch it seriously next time!
i went to watch "pride and prejudice" in pyramid with mum and nisha just now... and it was good but like "emma", it was pretty commercialised... not so true to the book as the BBC version but the cast was better looking in general...except that their mr. darcy wasn't as effective as colin firth! kiera knightley was abit too light-headed to my liking... frivolous... and flat-chested... but she had a nice face... mary was prettier than expected... they were horribly poor and heathen-like... but probably that's more validable than the BBC version? anyway, altogether i like the BBC version better because it stays truer to the book!
