I'm a proud owner of a Nikon D70!! It's a beauty. There was a deal in the papers offering a package for $2,076 but thanks for sharifah and her dad, they advised to try another shop which sells it at a better price. Went to pennisula plaza and got it at $1,700. Actually in total it was $1,925 with UV filter and 1GB flash card. I've yet to properly acquainted with it but I have the weekend to do it. Haha! *evil laugh* So far, haven't felt the pinch yet, just pure excitement abt this new toy of mine.
32 more days left till fyp be over, according to edmund. It's really short! Have to start doing some audio recording next week for audio assignment 2. Audio really seems redundant somehow at this point. Yet to pick a rock song to record. Then there's acan. Ha! I wanna laugh at acan. I did the interior of the factory and after helping me with some lighting, Issac says it's too realistic. I just stared at him. For fyp, he says that it's not realistic enough. Somehow this guy, tough! But the biggest relief he says was it'll be better if the interior be dirty. I've been working on the polluted scene for fyp and i'm happy to do dirty. It's so much easier than making it all look clean. I love dirty work. Oops!

I didn't realise that I haven't blog for days. Besides, who reads anyway?
Lately I noticed I'm feeling sick somewhere. First was the darn brownies I ate on friday. Nearly threw up when I got home, ended up feeling like crap till the next day. Swearing off brownies for a long, long time! My stomach still not that strong, can't eat like I used to. Staring at the computer also causing slight dizziness.
Been discussing the issue of going for a short trip after poly. Bangkok. I'm asking around who wants to go. Be bringing my mom with me. Both of us haven't left this country for 7 years! Not even a trip to m'sia. How pathetic is that! So this trip is suppposed to be a reward for us. 3 day, 2 night thing, it's fine with me. I'm just in it for the shopping. My sis gets to travel to aus twice a year and it's either our schedule clash or I just don't want to be the lamp post. I'll wait for my friend to get back from bangkok to tell me all abt it. She should be coming back tonight, I think.
I'm still waiting and shaking my legs for that call or email from ECU. No back-up plan. *shaking harder*
I'm worried about getting that camera I want. I'm trying to save up but it's not much. I'm saving up for both overseas study and camera. That cam is way ex that I don't know whether I should go for another camera at a reasonable price. Sigh. Hopefully, I'll be able to get a job after poly. Save up enough for both. I hate to give up either one.
When is it ever gonna rain?
PS: Catch 'Drumline' on Star Movies. It's damn good for those who love the beats ;)

I have my friend, sharifah's blog on the other window. Listening to 'work' by jimmy eat world. I love that song and it's my ringtone!
Speaking of phone, first time I forgot to bring my handphone. I felt a bit lost. Kept telling myself that it's just a phone and it'll be a short while. Ahmad spoke to us today. Saying that if we don't buck up (extremely), our grades are pretty much in deep shit. Somehow I feel that we can pull it off if we push a little harder. It's only 5 more weeks. Yikes! It's a short time but we're gonna try though we're behind time.
Tests. Hmm...one word - Suck! I was hoping to do well in animation cos I somehow feel that the assignment is pretty much going to screw up with unfortunate circumstances...grrr. Audio. Tim R makes the module suck and it was a mistake taking it. But what the heck.
My sis already got a call from ECU. She has a place and wanted her to go over next week. She had to remind them that she applied to start in Feb 2006. It's making me really nervous. I don't know whether I was going to get in. Was talking to michelle abt it and I don't have a back-up plan! I'm trying to figure out what other universities are available. My heart is beating really fast just writing this.
My new blog skin is in the making...having problems in how to improve it. Might take longer. I don't know. ECU...how??

I feel so burnt! Decided to go swimming today so that I can spend the weekend doing work and studying. Plus to make up for the days of rich food. Feeling so bloated and I even have cookies for breakfast! Must cut back...somehow i feel like puking. Anyway, I don't know why today's sun seems so strong. I was standing in the water for a few minutes and I could feel my face burning. Need aloe vera gel. Managed to swim and now my eyes are red. Can't see things clearly now, quite blurry. Hope it'll be better tomorrow. Hope the guy who stole my chair get really sunburnt. There are so many chairs around and he decided to pick up my stuff and throw onto another chair. What an ass!
This year's chinese new year is super boring! Go here and there, just hang around. Nothing much except I love my aunt's roast pork with the crispy skin, except it ain't crispy anymore. Happen to be in front of me and my aunt kept pouring in more and more. My eyes were growing bigger and bigger. All of us love it!! Oh no, I'm drooling just thinking about it. She's so worn out and fell asleep even when the whole room was full of people.
I was supposed to start doing some modelling yesterday but I kept sleeping. Woke up about 8+. Read newspaper, have breakfast, sit in front of computer checking mail and i was nodding off. It's so bad! I decided to go for a short nap abt 45 minutes. Woke up for lunch. About 2,3+, I was back in bed, napping. I was so freakin' tired. Woke up to find my hairdresser and her family was at my place, admiring the rascals. I feel guilty as a host cos I just woke up and it's not very nice. Janine looks so cute in her pink custome and Ying xuan, wah! Went round the living room and balcony, picking up the glassware. All the adults were like panicking. Hyper!
I want to play some games in shockwave but there seems to be a problem loading. The advertisement is blank and I re-install shockwave player. I managed to play a game 3 days ago but i can't. Been happening since I re-format my comp. Can someone tell me what's wrong?

I've been a good girl today! I sat down and submitted two deviations! Marcus keeps telling me to do more work and submit stuff. One of them is the inner side of me so be prepared to get shocked!
I feel so much better after the interim. Been getting sleep and I'm smiling more because of that. For the past two days, been pretty confused abt some stuff. Confided in some friends and I'm still don't know what to do. To top it off, interim. Our work is not up to standard!! Arrghh! Issac is expecting movie 3D standard and we're only 3D game standard! Quite disappointed. Was tempted to start working when I got home but I ended up sleeping. Even though it's chinese new year, I better get started on my modelling and other stuff. I'm hoping to change my blog skin too. Still finding resources. any ideas people?
Lost my anklet during swimming. *sob* Shih han gave it to me in year 1. I like the simple design and I forgot to take it off when I swam. Couldn't find it. I think it broke when I accidentally kick some dude. I'll go check with the lifeguard next time.
Wish me luck for tomorrow's reunion dinner. High chances of being bored but at least I'm wearing something I'm comfortable in. Happy new yr!! :D

One phrase to sum these past two days up. 'Just unlucky, I guess'. Received some major shit on friday. Something, or someone screwed up acan project. When siti told me, I near blew. Ahmad was there so I better not. Bloody fuckin' bitch! I don't care if she's reading this. This is a group project! Thank you for playing us out!!
Past two days, I haven't gotten much sleep. Even after 7 hours of rest, I was still a zombie. My mind's not functioning well and I don't feel much like conversing with people but I had to get up early for a meeting. so far so good. No need to wear formal for interim. Phew! We accompanied siti to her CCF and decided to drop by the showcase. Big big big mistake! I saw the person that I least expected to see. Imagine talking to Issac and I could feel the prata stop digesting in my stomach. I really felt like puking. I know I should dealt with it the calm way but at that moment, I really wanted to get out so bad! Had to walk pass him cos the entrance didn't allow pple to go out. Kept telling siti to walk quickly and I think some guy nearby kept staring at me siah. Yeah, I'm the idiot but the person I'm avoiding is .... arrgghh!! It's like a scene outta of the 'Wedding Planner' except I didn't complete the last part like what Jennifer Lopez did. Face him and deal with it.
Need to get some stuff for interim done now. Pretty stressful. Oh yeah, first time I spoke to cecilia in person at the showcase. She's so nice! Feel bad for not carrying a longer conversation. Brain's not functioning, stomach is turning. Not a good mix.
Oh yeah, I'm missing a Intel codec 5.10! Later!

I don't get people who like to antagonize others but when treated with a slight hint of sarcasm, they blow - you see the ugly side. I live with two at home, one going through a certain period of life. There is a limit until brushing off is best solution from further damage. In the end, I still don't get it. Sigh.
Everyone's stressed! My group's interim is first thing in the morning. Have to be there by 8.45. I just crossing my fingers about the formal wear. I hate to wear formal. Nowadays, I can come back home and collasped on the bed. I'm so tired and waking up from naps, i feel even worse.
For the past few weeks, my family keep telling me how Fievel and I are so alike. Because of the assignments, I'm always worrying, thinking alot until I don't realised that I have this 'black face' thing going on. Fievel does about the same thing. I can take him out to play and suddenly, he'll just stare into mid-air and carries the 'black face' too. It's pretty odd for a hamster. Best part is when both of us are provoked, it ain't pretty.
Bought some nasty perfume from school. Moschino Couture. It smelt alright in the beginning but after a while, it stank. I don't really like flowery smell. Gave it to my sis instead but i don't think she likes the smell too. I'll stick to America and Lacoste Pink but lacoste is so ex! I'm contented with a tester.
Back to work now.
