Tralala.

I ... actually have nothing to say. But then again, I have nothing much else to do online, so I guess the next best thing was to click open Blogger.

I'm in Abu Dhabi now, on the computer in my dad's office. We were supposed to go out, I think, but there doesn't seem to be much to do here in Abu Dhabi - we already visited most of the places to visit two days ago.

Dubai yesterday was a tad bit more interesting, got some pretty good pictures! I love my genius-inspired shot, taking a picture of the reflection of the Burj Dubai (or was it the Burj al Arab? - whatever, either one hehe) in my sunglasses - which I made my brother put on.

Went for this desert safari thing in Dubai as well, which is basically sitting in a four-wheel drive and the driver going up and down sand dunes. Quite fun, really, but pretty scary when you're going down the sand dune. What else, what else. Oh I got a Henna painting thingy on my hand! It's so cool how the lady did it so quickly. Now the imprint is there and will probably be there for the next two weeks or something uh oh. Haha. Usually people (Islam religion?) do it when they get married, I think? Or something like that. Heh.

Anyway. Oh yes, New Year! Hmm. To tell you the truth, I slept through the transition between 2009 and 2010. Heh. Whaaaaaaaat? I was tired. But that is kinda sorta sad. Ah well. What can you do when most of your friends are half a world away?

That being said, New Year doesn't really feel like a new year for me. In the sense that.. I don't know, it just seems to be a continuation of the previous year. Or something like that. I don't really know how to describe it. But then again, I'm not even really keeping track of the days and dates, so...

OH MY GOSH. Lightbulb moment. REVELATION!! I just realised that I'm going to be T.W.E.N.T.Y. this year. How... old. But then again I only just turned 19 like, 5 days ago, or something like that. I can't be bothered keeping count. =p BUT STILL. Twenty. That's like, TWO DECADES OLD. Ohmygosh. I'm ancient. =/

Okay, I'm really just wasting time until Alastair decides to reply my online messages (MSN).. stupid boy grrr. Haha. Why can't he spend the whole day sitting in front of the computer waiting for me to come online!!! Hmph. Unreasonable much? =p

Right. I'm off to look for other things to do to occupy my time.. probably going out for lunch soon anyway (it's 1.20 PM here in Abu Dhabi). Oh right, and I'm flying off to London tonight! My brother is going to study in Concord College so we're all going with him to help him settle down and whatnot (good excuse for going on holidays).

TTFN, tata for now!

I miss you.

Do Dreams Come True?

.

We hear people telling us so-and-so had a fairytale romance, wedding, dream come true, whatever. We see other people living out fairytales. But the question is: why does it never happen to us?

I don't know about everyone else.. but today I realised that I hardly express it when I'm happy. Like, on my blog. A lot of the things I've posted are because I have something to complain about or other, or emo posts, things like that. Not many have been all happy happy joy joy. And I have not blogged in a prettyyyyyy long time.


So that got me to wondering, maybe it's because we don't document the happy times as well as we do for the sad ones. Or maybe it's just me.

So,

DANCE like nobody is watching;

TAKE PICTURES (heee) like nobody is looking;

LOVE like you've never been hurt;

LIVE...

... like it's Heaven on Earth.

"I never had a dream come true, till that day that I found you... I've never found the words to say, you're the one I think about each day, and I know no matter where life takes me to, a part of me will always be with you." Never had a dream come true, by S Club 7.

And so,

Do dreams come true?

For me?

YES.
(in more ways than one but I'm choosing to focus on this now hehe)

And I look forward to reading the rest of the fairytale.

I love you.

And since you like reading hidden stuff about you, here you go. No, there is no occasion. There doesn't have to be one. I just felt like it. And I love you. =)

Close your eyes, and count your blessings.

Everything's Changing.

... too quickly.






Long overdue pictures (like everything on this blog):


Maelstrom 2009, presented by FLARE DANCE ENSEMBLE.

All you can do is try to know who your friends are.

Social Psychology...

.... sucks.


Sigh. I give up. I give up, I give up, I give up.


The questions are so tricky/hard. Maybe if I memorised everything like I did for Psychology last year in Trinity, it would be really easy. But there's just SO MUCH. And there are other memorising subjects - which, by the way, I have not memorised. Bleh.


But I'm tired. My brain is tired. I just want to go into the exam and just put down the first thing that comes to my mind. I don't want to study anymore. AAAAHHHHHHHH.


I don't want to do this, I don't want to do this, I don't want to do this.


All I want to do is to curl up and sleep. Sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep.

And then it all just.. goes away.

What You Don't Know.

.


Ohmygosh there are actually people working in the building opposite me now. I meant to type something else, but I got distracted by that. Usually there are NEVER any people working there, and it's the typical work office with lots of chairs, tables, computers, cubicles and all that. And what's weird is that it's 8.35 PM. Nobody works after 6 PM in Australia. And during normal work hours, I never see more than 5 people in the office, and mind you, this is a huge office.

Okay yeaaaaah bit off tangent there. Well, it's SWOTVAC now!! Study Without Official Teaching Vacation! At least I think that's what it stands for. And I am soooooooo not studying. Which is soooooooooo not good. I'm going to fail uni. Sigh. And this time I'm serious.

Ugh. I want the holidays to start. I don't like studying. I don't want to study.


GAH.


One more month. One more month, one more month, one more month.


But other than that.. this is the end of my first year at University!! How cool is that? I've got friends who only just started, and I'm done with my first year. It's kinda scary, though. It's like I've just realised I have absolutely no plan, I don't know what I want to do, I don't know what subjects to take.. and I've got to plan my whole second year and those subjects are the prerequisites for third year subjects.. and then soon it'll be third year and WHAT AM I GOING TO DO THEN??


AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.


=(


Okay I have to go check on my sausages in the frying pan.

If tomorrow never comes..

And I Will Remember.

Wow, it HAS been a while since I've posted anything, hasn't it? I don't think I've even opened the Blogger website for.. well, ages.

I don't know why, but I just don't really feel like I have anything to blog about anymore. Well, I do, I guess, just.. whatever time I have to spare, I just feel like curling up in bed and sleeping. Or reading a good story book.

Hmm. I'm in the ERC now, it's a sort of library thing where you can sit down and do work and stuff. It's 9.36 AM, I've been here for.. 15 or 20 minutes, I think. I was supposed to get some of my presentation work done (presentation is tomorrow, by the way), but here I am, procrastinating as usual. Surprise, surprise.

Okay, quick flashback of everything in the last two months (no pictures/too lazy to upload - heh). Black & Bling Night (something I organised for charity - Oaktree Foundation), study, study, study, quiz, presentations, study, homework, more studying.. fast forward to the 2 week break we just had (although it feels like ages ago now).

I think I was supposed to be doing Calculus.. study during the break, ya know? And because my Calculus is pretty hopeless - lousy lecturer, I SWEAR. Haha. But anyway. Pretty much spent the first week chilling and lazing around. And working at KUMON. And during the second week, a couple of friends (10 of us) and I went to Dandenong for a short getaway. It was awesome, the cottage was so pretty, comfy and homey.

Anddddddddddd.. after that it's back into the usual uni routine. Wake up late for class, rush rush rush, get to class late, promptly fall asleep - and then I think I might as well have stayed in bed anyway. And that goes on for every single day until.. probably until my uni life is over. Hahaha. I'm such a slacker. Yeahhhh, I haven't really started studying for exams yet. Hmm, what am I even saying. Haven't REALLY started? Try haven't started AT ALL. Oooh crap, I am in sooooo much trouble.

Speaking of which. I just realised a few days ago that my subject combination is..... rojak. Seriously. Ohmygosh what am I going to do?? I went for this Graduan Fair thing right (it's a sort of Malaysian career fair in Melbourne-aimed at graduates, but there are some internship positions etc. on offer). So first the interviewers ask what course you're doing. Bachelor of Science. Good, good. They're happy with that. What university are you in? Melbourne University. You can virtually see their faces light up. So what's your major? Psychology. And it goes downhill from there. You try to salvage it. Oh, I take Calculus as well. You don't mention your other two subjects (Earth, Atmosphere and Oceans - geography subject and Natural Environments - environments subject), because seriously. Earth Sciences and Behavioural Sciences AND Mathematics. Weird much?

Grrr. I am so screwed. I don't know what to do! =( I don't know what I should take next year.. I'm LOST. I mean, I *should* do some kind of statistics thing instead of Calculus and all that because that's well, marketable. Data analysis and statistics or something like that, I believe on of the bank managers said. Oh I spoke to Bank Negara and Maybank, by the way. I kind of ran off after that because I felt quite inadequate. Haha. But yeah, anyway, I can't analyse stuff for nuts. Seriously. Analysing? Not my strong point. Application work. Not my thing. Like, I can understand concepts and all, I'm pretty good at that. But when it comes to applying them in all sorts of different situations - I'm lost.

Wow okay this was supposed to be a short post. I didn't get anything done - I was supposed to work on my presentation. Now I have to go for a lecture. Crap. I'll try to update this space more often, but.. heh. No guarantees. =p

No colours for the moment - might edit it. For now, I'M LATE!!!

But what is a post without my usual ending one liners, right? =D

Love knows no boundaries.
