hey upper east siders


YAY ONLY ONE MORE CLASS OF SUMMER SCHOOL!!!!

no more not being able to go out sunday/wednesday nights because i had to wake up at 7am to make it to summer school in time, no more during tute work in limited time, no more not being able to go out on sat/fri nights because i had a mid sem worth 45% to study for (and no scaling!!
), no more having to sit through 4 hours of uni straight!!

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!

well not quite just yet.
this will all happen after the 12th which is the final exam.
*sigh*
i can't bloody wait.

actually, to be rather honest with you, summer school isn't all that bad. apart from waking up early and sitting through 4 hours straight of uni, the time restraints on the whole course makes it easier to retain information when it comes to assessment times.
but thats about it.
oh wait, another positive thing is that nasrul is a really good lecturer/tutor- i know, why the hell did he not show it during finance (analysis)?!- but he explains things really well and is actually nice. he'll be the unit controller for finance (portfolio management) this year so you guys will be fine. apparently the reason why everyone complained about this unit was cos of the current unit controller- lakshman alles or something.
think ken leo. then multiply it by 4. and that equals lakshman (as i have been told, duno how true it is)

anyway, todays lesson was the most boring ever! i fell asleep (as usual) and when i was awake all i could think about was buying the silicon case for my phone on ebay while nasrul was droning about options (yuk).
i keep dropping my phone and it really hurts my heart. i've barely had this phone for 4 months and it looks like i have had it for years. so sad.
but the case doesn't look that great


whats more is that its $13. $6.50 for the case and $6.50 for postage! doesn't seem worth it to me, but i have no clue about these things. does anyone know where i can get these from perth?

-------------------------------------

the only outing i have been to- (i swear i have no life these days, all i've been doing is summer school, work and organising exchange stuff, but i have turned into the daughter my mum has always wanted, always at home and never out) was on aus day where we just went to tim's friends house and watched the glow of the fireworks from his roof. why only the glow? cos the trees blocked out the actual thing.


the last one is of weir "helping" berry down from the roof, just thought i'd clarify that up in case it looked a bit suss.


the first two photos are of dan and jeremy. and you see that flag? yes that was my flag that i patriotically purchased but they had to stick it down their ass (jeremy) and down their nuts (dan) then tim threw it on the roof.
grrrr.

------------------------------------

other news! i have cut my hair! those long "curly" dried like hay locks have been chopped off and now i have a haircut resembling pepito from that ABC cartoon network madeline, man i loved that cartoon.

i guess i could pass off as a madeline as well, but pepito has black hair and so do i, so i'm more of a pepito, well...my hair is.

-------------------------------------

i finally got my visa! it was a dramatic experience. not the actual getting the visa. but getting to the visa consulate place. bah, i don't want to relive it.



ok i'm off to watch Juno =D


xoxo gossip girl

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
jokes.

hello 2008!

its been awhile eh.

reading huoy min and kah seans blog posts on their holidays made me so jealous and depressed, i lost inspiration to write anything on my own.

haha just jokes.

happy new year everyone!! i know its a bit late but still....

been rather busy lately, was working practically everyday with one day off every 8 or 12 days the whole of december.

now i have summer school. oh lord. its the most boring thing ever. i fell asleep in the first class on thursday. but the class yesterday wasn't too bad.
oh!
guess who is conducting it? NASRUL. the finance (analysis) guy. he is so much better in this unit than analysis and he remembers me from analysis too haha. i fell asleep so many times in that class especially when he walked around to our table and jac never woke me up! so embarrasing.

i'm actually really really scared for this unit because its supposed to be harder than acct 260.
HELLOOOOO.
are you FREAKING serious?! i barely passed that unit!!! nasrul was going on about how we really have to focus and everything in summer is condensed with less time so its harder than usual. ALSO there is no scaling with summer courses.
uh what, excuse me?!
no scaling?
scaling was the ONLY reason why i passed acct 260.
i am so screwed.

hmm what else have i been up to.... oh yes, organising the exchange thingo.
its the biggest headache ever.
applying for visa costs so much and its such a long and complicated process. all these forms, fees and interviews. so confusing.
then flights, i want to travel before and after so that just makes things harder
then insurance, health and travel.
so many things to do. i hope to god its worth it.

so among work, summer school and my exchange preparation i really haven't had any time to do anything apart from sleep and completely veg out on the couch.
why is my life so exciting.

anyways i'm off to thoroughly scrub the house, if my mum saw it in the state it is in now she would surely have a heart attack. my mum and sister are coming back tomorrow from their one and a half month holiday THANK GOD. no more scrounging around for food! yay!

i'll leave off with some photos of work.
oh yes get ready, brace yourself.
no, just joking. its a bookstore geez.

ew check out those disgusting eye bags!




yes of course the boss wasn't there.
