Semangat.

There you go, Iv.  A very blurry pic of yesterday's egg sandwich. Which didn't taste as good. Don't know why though.

During Study Time (after we were kicked out of the discussion room for laughing at Chang Yoon's "1=2, therefore 1+1=3=4"), the power went off.
Backed up with a few lights backed up by back up power, chaos erupted. 
I took out my awesome K850i camera phone and showed off the only thing it can do well (apart from playing Quadrapop): its flash.
So I did my Math by camera-phone light.
Cool.
I managed to get a few right. Thank you guys, for giving me a hand.

Oh, and this is Kimi Raikkonen's pic.
Forza Ferrari!

"I'm going home, to the place where I belong.." -Daughtry

I'm going home, I'm going home, I'm going home, tomorrow!

One thing I can't believe is that I've got to bring my work back home to finish it off before their respective deadlines. 
If I were supremely rich or if I could finish everything as fast as Flash and as smart as a really smart person, I'd say, "Screw work. Bring on CNY!"

But I'm not supremely rich, nor do I have superpowers or a superior intellect. So I've got to work. *sigh*

At least I get to go back to Brunei, where all the action's been happening for the past few days. 

Firstly, a huge sudden flash flood flooded my house. Obviously, because what else can floods do? (Actually it gave my rabbit a good wash and she came back squeaky clean after disappearing for two hours.) 
Probably it rains there 'cause it misses me. Awww. NOT.

Secondly, well, secondly...urm, secondly.... I'm coming back! =)

Majal.

I saw a pic of Kimi just now during BM. I miss F1. I really, really do. McLaren named their car after a music player again: MP4-24 (probably 'cause their beloved champ Lewis turned 24 recently).
Ferrari's car is called F60. Much simpler, don't you think? (And that I'm severely biased?)

I'd upload a pic of the pic, but I want to wait until tonight after I take a pic of the egg sandwiches we get for supper tonight, so Ivanka can see them and probably imagine herself eating.
She's going back to KL by coach tonight. I'm going back tomorrow night *majal again*.

I had gym orientation last night. Explains why I didn't blog, doesn't it? 
We got briefed about the uses of the apparatus, et cetera et cetera. I went to the boarding office just now (just dropping by) and collected my gym card thing. Now I get to use the gym. Cool.

"Cool." 
Reminds me of Chang Yoon. Can you believe that he got accelerated to Year 2 Math after taking a test? He's studying Math in my class now, m09203. Wow.
He gets to see how much I really suck at Math. But he said one thing, "Year 2 Maths? I die." in his lovable Korean accent. 

Chang Yoon, you rock! (He solved a 4 by 4 Rubik's cube in half an hour with the help of a Korean website.)

Jung Min loves hostel food more than the food his maid cooks at home. Eats every single meal on the dot. 

And the problem is, both of them won't teach us any Korean. 

During Math, I had absolutely no idea what on earth the teacher was talking about. Then Rania gave me an explanation and now I think I know what I'm doing. Thank you Rania.

I'mma gonna go shower now. 

Catch you guys after Study Time.

Bach be awesome.

My addiction to coffee is Bach- I mean, back.

I buy a can of (hideously covered with Lewis Hamilton's photo) coffee almost every day now. Keeps me from falling asleep in class.

I hate loads of work.

Yeah, I know that was totally irrelevant, but that's how life is.

I'm still stuck on page 1 of my Math assignment. Argh.

I'm going crazy.

Need to do research for Bio essay.

Need to finish Math assignment.

Need to think of ways to save imaginary people from a volcano and make a 3-D model of it for Geography.

Need to read 'To Kill A Mockingbird" for English book review.

Need to read for Music.

Need to read for Bio.

Need to print my eTicket to go home.

Need to buy books.

Need to pack my bag for tomorrow.

Need to sleep.

I wish I had more time.

But then again, it's not about how much time you have, it's how you use it.

And I, apparently, didn't use it very well at all.

Oh, and I saw a copy of 'Attack of the Deranged Mutant Killer Monster Snow Goons' by Bill Watterson at Popular today. But I didn't buy it, 'cause it was too crumpled and old.

Meh.

The Pianist.

I've got an assembly at 9.30 p.m.

Watched 'The Pianist' in the TV Room today. We were being selfish. Five hours in there and yet nobody came to kick us out. We always tend to "kick people out" (not intentionally, of course) of the TV Room and Music Room B but nobody ever does it to us. Hmm. Very interesting. But I digress.

The Pianist was great. It was awesome. It was entertaining. It was brilliant. It was so touching and disturbing and interesting. In other words, I enjoyed it immensely. Some scenes were terribly disturbing though, like the one where they shoot people in the head for no reason whatsoever.

I'm going to try and do my Maths tutorial thing.

Right after I shower and fold my clothes.

Adieu.

Oh, by the way, happy birthday Zimah. =) May you live long and content and not be subject to arseholes. Hahah.

Gay villains.

They cut internet access here at midnight, so I've about twenty minutes to do this post.

I just recently came up from the TV Room, watching 'Batman Forever'. Not that I chose to watch that movie; a guy (can't remember his name) had borrowed it and Wardah and I felt like watching a movie so we just decided to watch as well.

Story line? The usual superhero thing, you know. Superhero has deep dark secret, falls in love with girl, bad guy(s) try to kill him, probably kidnap girl as well, superhero has to choose between the one he loves and something else major-ly important. It's so meh, man.

At least the bad guys were acting all gay. Good entertainment, that.

I finished reading Wolf Brother. It's quite good, I dare say. 
Also, I think there is a slight chance that the author decided to extend her book into a series by adding a little scene at the near back, right before the resolution (I learned that in English class, meh) of the book.

It was so off.

Still got loads of work to do. Don't know why I'm putting it off. Must remind myself to work harder (I'm not even working at all, now) and not slack.

Whee. Wii. Nintendo Wii. MarioKart. TV Room. Music Room. Game Room. Table football. Pool. 

I like.

I is still lovin' to blog here at my bloggy.
Me loves me bloggy.

*ahem*

We made fish things out of ang paus this morning to decorate the class. The theme is something about spring and new beginning, but I can't really remember.

Then we had to go through three hours of Chemistry and Math. I have no idea how these calculation things work. At least I got to copy some off Rania's paper. Thank you Rania.


So anyway, I went out (again, after I swore not to after the Suntec incident) with Ivanka today. She's Wardah's ex-roommate, but she got transferred to the 3rd floor. But she still hangs out with us, and that's cool.

We went to Boon Lay, I think, where I bought a new wallet and cookies and then saw this.

Now that's just seriously weird. Is it even legal to use McCain and Obama's faces like that to advertise your restaurant/CNY special?

Like they used Lewis Hamilton's face on this can of Nescafé coffee. It's just disgusting. Look at him. Smug arsehole.



Jung Min's gone home for the weekend. We sure miss him and his Korean accent. 

We asked Chang Yoon if he missed him and he said, "No."
"No?"
"Not yet."

My page counters were down for like a week or so. Now they're back. I wonder what happened.

I want to go and play with the Wii again in the TV room. But meh, I've got homework stuff to do.

Hostel life does seem very fun, doesn't it? Actually, it sorta is, but then you look at the curfew and the rules and the food on some days and the lack of family (with friends abundant; that's a good thing) and you realise that you'd rather stay at home sweet home with your wacky dysfunctional family.

Wolf Brother is addictive. I keep thinking about Torak and Wolf and my brain is wondering why my body doesn't just pick up the book and finish it off. I don't know either, brain, sorry.
It's got a good, unique little story line. Inventive and interesting. 

I got to go.

Adieu.
