I'm coming home after my exams!!!!!! Will be back here for my graduation tho'... with my parents and the boyfriend. Well.... I wanted to go home earlier... say a month from today. *insert sarky tone* But some people are just so understandable.
Anywaaaaayyyyyy... My reading week just went up and left. Boring. I can't say reading week was productive for me... because it wasn't. Exams are slowly coming... with every lecturer remind us. STRESS! It's March tomorrow... which means my wedding is in 6 mths!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 6 mths people!!!!!!! Crazy.
I've got so many things in my head.. that it isn't funny. You'd think shopping for things would be fun... but it isn't. It's super stressful. I miss my girls back home. They'd be oh so willing to help me do this right now. If I had the money ku bawa dorang kemari.
My dates have been set. I initially thought it'd be a weekend thing.. but it ended up to be a 10 day thing. Not that I mind. So I told the girls I'm closest to my dates.. before they heard from others.... cali lah reaction sorang. But they slowly started pressuring me with details. Details I have no control over... just because I'm not back home.
Eh ngalih ku ckp pasal kawin anie. I think the boyfriend pun stress sudah by me... heheheh
Whoops.
Can't help a person for being bloody excited right?
Funny thing about being home alone is that you tend to do things out of the ordinary. Initially I thought I'd wake up at my usual time (noon), and then spend my day doing work. But I did none of that.
After posting that picture of my books, I noticed one was missing kan. So I searched high and low for it, and couldn't find it. I thought maybe I only bought 3... so I checked the receipt and it was listed. I thought maybe the person at Waterstones forgot to masukkan in my bag. I went to sleep after resolving that. I woke up at 3am tho' because my housemates were running around the house getting ready for the paintball thing... screaming their lungs out to one another... To my frustration, I couldn't sleep lagi. So I went to town at around 10am... thinking about popping by Waterstones, after watching Melrose Place. A whole lot of dodgy acting done here... hehehe. Tapi teranah.
I love going out alone.... I get my own personal time to think. So jalan2...masuk boots (boots anie sama nie mcm Tescos... 'tis the devil hehe).... Tempted to go in other shops... but as I said.. I'm broke. Went straight to Waterstones... Awawal I was delighted that the lady that served me wanted to replace my book... skali datang manager nya! Ishhhh.... I stood there for ages while he ran up and down. At first he said, they can't do anything becuase they have 2 books in their stock left. Which doesn't make sense. So I put on my bitchy face hehehe, and said it's not my fault that it's not in the bag... I paid for it. And he kept on saying "Well are you sure you didn't drop it?" So I said, if it dropped... the other books would've dropped as well. Skali naik lagi..... turun naik lah ya again. And at the end I got the book! Hehehehehhehehehe. In all honesty, I'm not sure if I misplaced the book or they forgot to masukkan in my bag. I recently just cleaned my room... and it hasn't popped up anywhere. What should I do if the actual book does turn up? Heheheh
Around 1-2pm, I finally conked out. God knows what time I'll sleep tonite.
I sort of feel jet lagged... but that's just not right. Is it?
I went to town today, with the sole intention of refunding my book and getting "Something Borrowed" by Emily Giffin (as recommended by Mz Olive). After going to WhSmith, I though, I should just get the books I want in Waterstones... So the people in Whsmith won't start to recognise my face everytime I refund a book. Hehehhe. Went in Waterstones, headed straight towards the Emily Giffin book, and when I was about to pay, there were a bunch of books.... with pretty covers.. and really appealing synopsis. 3.99 saja lagi tu! and BUY ONE GET ONE FREE!!!! I ended up getting 4. Eh how come ada 3 saja in my pic ahhh...it must still be in the carrier bag. I'm reading them bit by bit... but must be done within 21 days... hehehehe. Maybe I'll refund the ones I don't like.
Right after that, I went home but stopped by Tesco's. Tescos anie evil. If evil was a store, it'd be called Tesco. I can't help but pass the place everytime I'm on my way home and masuk to the store. All I ever get seems to be junk food. Anyways, I wanted to get those 8 pack Ribena light thingies... but it was at the highest shelf in the world. I tried to pull it... but it almost fell on my head so I stopped. Tried to figure out ways to get it. Suddenly, at the corner of my eyes... I saw someone stop and stare at me... so I pretended I was looking at the other things at a lower shelf. Hehe barimalu jua tu.. reaching for a shelf. So that person walked slowly pass me... and stopped right beside me. I looked at him, a complete stranger mind you, another customer, and he smiled.... and pigang the Ribena at the top shelf, and asked... "Did you want this?" Hehehe malu ku!!!!! I just smiled and said my yes'es and my thankyou's. Ya mengambil mcm nada! He was as tall as the shelf it self..... How fun must it be to be THAT tall. He was cute too!
My housemates are off to the Paintball thingy at godknowswhere. I decided not to join because, well, honestly, I'd rather spend that amount of money on shoes. Pandai sudah ku with the whole opportunity cost thing.
Happy national day everyone!
I love Friday's. Why? Because it's time for Grey's and Ugly Betty!!!!!!!!!
I had doubts about Ugly betty in the beginning. Yes, I judged her by her appearance. Thanks to my housemate... I got hooked from the first episode. And by the 2nd episode, I didn't find her ugly anymore. She was this pretty girl with awful dress sense... hehehe. I even get defensive if anyone criticises her. Heheh yes, I'm THAT obsessed!
So, if you haven't started watching it.. you should. It's a better version of the Devil wears Prada. I just figured this out, I think, the whole ugly duckling going to work in the fashion industry and becoming "pretty" started with the movie Sabrina. Kan?? Don't you agree??
Eh boring jua post anie. Heheh.
I'm just keeping myself occupied because I can't seem to sleep. My book isn't that interesting.... I think I might refund it tomorrow. Question is... what book do I get next?
[EDIT] Eh nada ugly betty panya today! March baru ada... BORING! Mari kita boo dia! BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I've said this before, trying to plan a wedding is an impossible task. You've got so many ideas in your head... but no way to come about it.
So far, I've got my wedding card all planned out.... Problem is... I don't know how much it is approximately. You know how men are like when you need help with all the girly stuff. Ish. To yang sudah kawin... or has helped plan a wedding.... how much is the wedding invites? And how much is it to make the carrier bag?
Stuff for hantaran are all planned out.... keyword... PLANNED. The actual purchase has not existed yet. I've got the dosh to buy them.. I'm just scared that they'd go bangas by September. What if the LV wallet I'm planning on getting him goes out of style by the time I'm suppose to give it to him? What if the Paul smith work shirts turn old yellow colour? What if the perfume evaporates? What if his Prada shoes don't fit?
Stressful.
His & my parents are meeting this saturday to set the dates. Eee aku takut.
Eh wait. Kursus kawin takes how long?
Funny thing this.... you know how you've been dying to have your eyes closed but you got to complete your work... but once it's done... you feel so wide awake. Ish. Tricks of the mind.
Anywaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyysssssssssssss......
So I went on my retail therapy.... I was eyeing these shoes from Zara... but decided, I'd get them next month saja. I HAVE WILL POWER PEOPLE!!! I've grown up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I decided to get these:
and...
It's almost sunrise... and I'm still awake. Surprise surprise.
Funny how when you're doing work you feel a strong urge to fall asleep... but when you're trying to sleep... you do anything but.
Oh I can't wait to get this over and done with.
Lupa ku sudah what I wanted to post about.
Ish.
I know I've said this 10 gazillion times everytime a coursework is about to do... but I swear, I think I'm going insane.
It's due tomorrow, but I asked for an extension earlier because I was ill. Ill or not, I would've done it at the last minute jua masih. So, technically mine's due in another 2 days time.. (i.e Wednesday). My main aim was to complete it on time, just so I'd be "free" for reading week, and not dwell on the coursework for half of the week. But something stupid happened. I need this one book... which has the major guidelines on how to do the coursework, so I loaned it early.... spaya ampit kan. Little did I know... as it was lying around in my room... without me so much as looking at it... the due date was up. I wanted to renew it... but someone has reserved it. Stupid stupid me. So before returning it, I photocopied what I needed. Or so I thought. So.. a few days ago... by a few days ago I mean last night... hahaha... I realised I photocopied the wrong chapter. How stupidly careless is that?????? The book now is only available at a different uni, and guess what? It's closed on a Sunday. The irony of it all is... my uni's library is open on a Sunday, but the book has all been taken out. Palui ahhhhhhh!!!!
So I basically went ballistic last nite....
I feel so lost.
I think I need to do some shoe shopping tomorrow.
I'm in this mood where everything annoys me... I think I'm a closeted english teacher. I'm not saying my English is perfect, nor am I saying my malay is. It's anything but. I do know enough that certain things should never be said.
- Don't say to me... "I EVER have someone say that to me" etc etc. Ever is not equivalent to the word "pernah" all by itself.
- Don't talk to me in english when it's not understandable. I speak malay you know.
- I hate yo's and buii's..... I have a friggin name. Na isn't so hard to say is it?
- I hate people who imitate the way I talk. I get self-conscious.
- Vavai, papai... is nowhere close to the Bye. Isn't bye a much easier word to type? Plus, it isn't cute.
- Baby talk isn't cute when you're in your teens.. and it doesn't get cuter when you're going on your late 20s.
- Adding -ness at the end of each word is just plain annoying.
- People who use smart words just so they'll sound smart... but end up sounding stupid.
Eh sadang tah ku kali hahahaha.
Sorry... I just needed to get that off my chest.
I went out with the girls tonight to watch Because I said so. It's an alright movie I suppose. I wanted a more chick flick-y movie tho'. This movie banyak stress moments. You know bits where mum and daughter are bickering their heads off. Ntah ah. I just felt like the movie dragged on a bit too long. It's about the mum meddling with her daughter's love life. I thought it'd be more about the search you know. But I think it was more on the relationship between the mum and daughter.... which was quite nice really. I am becoming fonder of Mandy Moore tho'. I used to think she was real annoying. Diane Keaton, for a mature actress (i tried making that as polite as possible), has real cute dresses in this film. Hehehe lain tah pulang. But yeah.
Kan tidur ku eh.
