the other side of things

the irony with life is that it's predicatable yet unpredictable..the slightest change can cause a change in everything..(if that made sense to you, if it didn't then well, it didn't exactly make much sense to me as well)

point being is that when the unpredictable life event hits you hard and you feel that it's pointless and you have exactly no idea what to do, it's funny how things can change so much in so little..

I never really knew/understood how ONE song, ONE unexpected random text and ONE phone call can make you change the way you view things completely. How different it would be and how it can actually make life interesting :) when you stop to think about how GOOD life is instead of worrying what to do in life and it's hurdles, you'll actually learn to appreciate it more and thank God for the amazing things he has done. And, how much things can actually change and a more positive outlook in life happens. And, how good are blessed are we that God allowed man to invent phones and how a random text with no intention at all makes you feel so much better :)

so my point? when life gives you lemons, you make the sweetest lemonade you can ever find ;)

in other words, when life's hardships hit you, make the most out of it by remembering that there are still other good things in life, which could be a phone call away, a text away, or even a song away :)

summer..coz what more is there?

yess..it has been wayyyy tooooo long since i ever did anything on this blog..

but the irony is that just when you want to blog about something, nothing comes up..but it's when life circumstances hits you or forces you to deal with it is when you realize that maybe there is something to blog about..and not about how whiny you might sound, but the fact that others might be encouraged by it (provided they read your blog and not give up on it)

anyway life has been, well life :) semester has ended and it's currently the exam period and it's funny how different things happen during the exam period..for some apparent reason if ever there was a time to have a life crisis, it will be during the exams (don't worry, i don't have one if you were wondering)

exams are occupying everyone's time, life and energy :P jokes! it only happens like twice a year so it's not so bad. I've got a pretty wide spread timetable with 2 weeks after before i return home! wee..!

i honestly can't wait to go back tho a part of me would't mind staying back! summer holidays are just awesome! sun, shades, flops and beach! what more could one ask for? just to chill and regain back all the lost energy that uni has drained everyone of (actually, it didn't drain me as much as most people would feel)

but on the brighter side, summer back home isn't too bad as well! time to catch up with friends and family and enjoy everything that you've been missing for the entire year! and of course, eat heaps (not that i'm not eating well here, tho i must say i think i've been eating TOO well since the cheeks speaks for itself ;) )

but yes, life will be heaps awesome once summer comes!

blogging can never be given up

so! i have tot's been abandoning this blog and not updating it at all but hey, isn't blog seasonal? or is it? haha..

so anyway, lots has happen since i last blogged such as the awesome winter break that has come and gone :( spent with cuzzins and as usual it was awesome with movies, eating, sleeping late and waking up late to lunch/brunch, going out shopping and just doing nothing! it was a heaps good holiday, and even tho i didn't go back to msia..the fact that i stayed with cuzzins compensated for it :)

also, second semester has started and it has been a drag and a real pain! business and psychology should not be a combination of subjects that you take in uni! economics, law and psych! worst combinations ever coz the work load is equally heavy! but all in all the content and context is pretty interesting so i suppose i shall not complain :)

and everything else? well, the previous and future posts will cover that, also, facebook helps too :)

cause skype makes us closer

it's things like these that make you grateful for skype..coz although you are thousands of miles away, you never seem to feel far away coz these things bring you that much closer to home *aww...* (or at least the date in which your going home)

skype never fails to entertain me :)

when mentals get together

this are the kind of people i have to deal with everyday..totally random, loud, nonsensical but yet they make me feel more like myself :)

this is how i am

Lydia Kee, such a big Foodie,
Without a spoon and plate you will never see.
In her unit she will never be,
Because she's always driving us mad, Devi Rajaram & Me.

Woolies is her favorite place,
She would love to make it her permanent base.
Her headaches end in sooo much drama,
We feel its our karma!

Everyday she will entertain, despite being a big pain.
Feeding us is what she does best,
But, at the end of it al our ears need the rest!

such poetic friends i have :)

a little more time please

so, after a week of finishing my first paper, i'm done with my second paper, which was management

overall, it wasn't too bad at all..the questions were pretty straight forward and din require much thought (like oh, what theory is this, what is it asking for? how do i answer) type of questions except for maybe one or two questions..BUT, the worst part was....

NOT ENOUGH TIME!

everyone came out complaining there was not enough time, well not not enough, but a bit more time would have been better coz there were heaps to write..and when your in exam like conditions you tend to write more than you usually would (or at least i did) coz i was trying to make it fanciful and like a super pro (sound) like essay hence the fancy words and elaboration...

but, i realized i could't come an hour into the exam (we only had 2 btw) and i realized i still had 3 more short answer questions and 2 more essays! i bet your thinking she's never gonna finish! i thought i would't either! and short answer is not that short! it's worth like 10 marks so there should at least be 10 points! i wrote like a page long for all my short answers...but when it came to the essay, there wasn't enough time! so most of my essay's were also a page-a page and a half long coz i could't elaborate much and just jumped to all the theories, a tiny short explanation and examples..i just keep doing that for both essays! and the most awesome part? ( i really must congratulate myself coz i don't know how i managed) but i finished 3 short answer questions in 15 minutes! i just wrote everything and anything i knew! nah, it was def God's guidance and wisdom to help me answer the questions and think of examples while i wrote and my hand which co-ordinated it all so well!

so at the end, i was still writing to the last minute! it was crazy! and while they were collecting the papers, i wrote my student ID on all the pages coz I didn't have time to write in the beginning :P

overall, it was an alright paper, not too bad, just a little bit of extra time (or lesser questions) would be better...ironically, some people left an hour into the exams...go figure...

next up, the most dreaded subject (statistics) and marketing, which i'm not too bad in, i think? then PARTAY time *does the wink eyebrow thingi*
