Wishlist.

When I don’t feel so good, I like to go wandering around, look see at things, and do things that make me feel happy. That was effectively what I did today, because I didn’t feel particularly good (emotionally) – I went to JP after class (I stoned through class) and I walked around. I went into places where I knew I’ll like to go, and that it’ll make me happy.

I went to check this out.

There are some pretty competitive prices at the computer shops at Jurong Point, and I’m particularly tempted by one of the bundles. Am very very tempted actually. Decided to come back and discuss with my sister, before making any hasty decisions. Should I check them out at Funan as well, or just stick to the west side with that really competitive bundle? The bundle honestly sounds too good to be true, priced at $499 with quite a number of tempting freebies. Sooooo tempted.

I really need to prioritise my wants and needs. I need a new phone – which I also checked out just now.

HTC Dream!

I dream of the Dream! Hurhur. It was absolutely a love at first sight thing. I can’t upgrade my plan now though. I absolutely adore it – out with thinking about the iPhone, in with the Dream and its Android’s interface.

I would like to get myself a 1TB HDD (non portable) to back up my data on my main PC, and a top tier pair of IEMs. I don’t think I should dream about the ES3X – it’s crazy. Ruoling was pulling me down from the eargasm I had after listening to David’s pair of ES3X – the layering, and music were such delightful beings despite my no-seal! Seriously. Maybe I’ll just look at the Westone 3s. Plus I would love to have my own DSLR, so that the boyf and I can go on photoshoots around Singapore, and shoot the sights, people and everything else.

Time and again, my wishlist doesn’t resemble a female’s wish list. But I so feel like doing some female retail therapy shopping. Shopping for clothes with Roo last evening reminded me of how badly I want to buy new clothes and revamp the wardrobe. More tops, more dresses, more gadgets.

More money please?

Plus, I would like to travel in June too.

Having too many expensive hobbies, is definitely not a good thing.

After walking into the computer shops at JP, and Singtel to touch the Dream, a cup of Java Chip from Starbucks, and a chat with Peanut ovr Google chat, I’m feeling much better about today already. (:

Onslaught of work coming in!

This week is supposed to be the golden week where we get respites and take a break from classes as content upgrading classes have ended, main pedagogy classes have yet to start – they start next week actually. Two assignments are in sight, with their deadlines due in mid March. Projects are looming around the corner, with ICT and Ed Psych.

New classes, new assignments, more things to do.

Today after EL class, classmates were talking about the ICT assignment due tomorrow, I was actually damn glad that I’ve got it done, completed and sent! Partly I knew I was going out today and last night, hence there was the extra motivation to complete it by the weekend. With the help-push factor from the boyf, I damn well made sure I wanted to get it done as soon as possible so that I can remove the assignment out of my mind, and enjoy our very limited time together. (:

It sure feels good to stay in front of deadlines and not worry as they loom around the corners, lurking in shadows waiting to pounce on you once you let lose of the sights. I like my “things-to-do” list – it helps me keep check of what I have to do, school work and others.

I need to settle the CSC accounts, but the right people are not responding. Sometimes, you just want to get things done, but there are blockages that you can’t work around with. That’s pretty irritating, but I’ll just make do. Don’t blame me for not giving the figures in time when you are not responding to my numerous emails.

I like efficiency, because it frees up time for me to indulge in other random things, like reading forums and surfing blogs. Or simply, blog on my own blog for that matter. Hence, I can’t stand it when people are less efficient. I truly appreciate efficiency, because you don’t drag things and you get things done with the least amount of time required.

Chopchop!!

There’s grammar test next week, I think I’m going to fail it. Grammar terms still don’t quite make sense to me – I can grasp the basics, but when people start throwing fanciful terms around, my head simply swells and then everything disappears from the mind. How delightful. I hope I can survive with whatever minimal knowledge I can remember for the grammar test. Hums.

I’m pretty glad to say that I’m really enjoying the learning here currently, it feels so much better than back in school in the old days. Though I would love to have more interactive lessons for my Ed Psych, and wish that some things could be less restrictive. 3 hours per lesson (as per SMU) is too long, information overload. 2 hours per lesson are just nice!

This is such a rambling random entry, but I just felt like blogging now, before I leave the house in another 45 minutes. Onwards to seeing lovelies, boyf and fun!

Random quizzes.

Which seemed pretty accurate. Interesting.

Get to know yourself!

Your view on yourself:

You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You like serious, smart and determined people. You don’t judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren’t necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people’s eyes.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship.

The seriousness of your love:

Your have very sensible tactics when approaching the opposite sex. In many ways people find your straightforwardness attractive, so you will find yourself with plenty of dates.

Your views on education

Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.

The right job for you:

You have plenty of dream jobs but have little chance of doing any of them if you don’t focus on something in particular. You need to choose something and go for it to be happy and achieve success.

How do you view success:

You are afraid of failure and scared to have a go at the career you would like to have in case you don’t succeed. Don’t give up when you haven’t yet even started! Be courageous.

What are you most afraid of:

You are concerned about your image and the way others see you. This means that you try very hard to be accepted by other people. It’s time for you to believe in who you are, not what you wear.

Who is your true self:

You like privacy very much because you enjoy spending time with your own thoughts. You like to disappear when you cannot find solutions to your own problems, but you would feel better if you learned to share your thoughts with a person you trust.
Interesting, very interesting. But then again, its just yet another random test.

Off to bed!

Self Poisoning.

With the extra spare time in my hands today, I decided to do some self poisoning, and was reading up the DSLR forums in HWZ. The sudden gian stems from the boyf’s new 小老婆 and I have this sudden urge to get my own. I can’t get enough of playing around with Ling’s Canon 450!

Not to mention I’m thinking about the Wii, the Es3X and the Near speakers.

I should stop surfing HWZ forums. Urgh.

Finally.

I am sitting in front of the computer, with a good day for breather.

Submitted my ICT assignment this morning, cleared my English discussion forums requirement, and looked at the accounts for CSC before giving up because information is incomplete. I don’t have to worry about things for now, for the time being. I’ve got to relook at the QCE520 readings before class tomorrow, but that can be easily done before I leave for a 5 person badminton, 1 court session tonight. I wonder how can 5 people play in 1 court, seriously. I might just sit it out and watch them play. Oh wells.

The weekends should be made longer. 2 days are definitely not enough. HAHA. I’ve got to handle work, tuition and spend time with the boyf, definitely not enough. I miss the boyf already, but at least I get to see him tomorrow. (:

There’s been plenty of thoughts, but I’ve been shelving them behind my mind for the time being. Had a nice long chat with timtams last night, and we spoke about things, that I would love to pen down and make records of them for future reference, but they have slipped my mind when I woke up in the morning. I’m sure they’ll come by again.

Meanwhile, I shall go totter around the house and see what I can do.

Grouchy day.

Today has been bad. Remember yesterday night (or rather this morning) I said I will do work? Nothing was done. Nothing got done. Urgh. Nehmind. This simply means I’ll just have to work over the weekend, especially since I don’t have tuition this weekend. Grouchy grouchy day.

Plus I had to deal with somebody who didn’t know the meaning of punctuality. Totally totally wanted to kill her, plus she took so long for everything. URGH. Irritated.

The boyf didn’t have a very good day too (in fact I think his might have been worse). And I was just being moodswingish and irritable, of course, not to him. Hence no work was done. I shall not do any work tonight, talk to the boyf later and go out the whole of tomorrow.

To hell with the assignment for now. As much as I would love to eyepower the document, nothing is registering.

SIGH.

Supposed to..

do work.

But I end up sitting in front of the computer for the last half an hour surfing randomly and talking to people on msn. I should just go and sleep.

AND DO WORK TOMORROW.

and I’m seeing the cat next week too! ((:

NB: Benjamin Buttons was reallllyyyy goooood. The peanuts enjoyed it tremendously!

One down.

Demo group presentation down, time for individual case study assignment! Things are coming one after another, hopefully I can take a proper breather next week when the case study assignment is done submitted and over. I aim to finish it by Monday before I meet the lovelies for badminton. I don’t want the assignment to be hanging over my head while I attempt to whack shuttlecocks after such a long break from badminton.

Roo is so going to whip my ass.

Something is not right with my UM1. I might really have to bring it back to Jaben to rma it. Plus, I’m asking Uber to help me send my baby in for cooking, I might have to live without good quality music for a while! I actually brought my baby out for another walk today, am currently sitting at Cineleisure waiting for Peanut while listening to my baby and David Cook. Swoonilicious. Though the chinese singers do sound a little airier, as compared to the set I tried at Stereo.

I. Must. Burn(Cook). It.

Oh wells. We all get the idea, I shouldn’t go too much into it.

Presentation today was fun! I miss doing presentations, standing in front of an audience and talking to them, getting my ideas across to them and watch them nod and respond with agreement or not. I derive extreme energy from it and I absolutely adore standing in front of people talking to them. Am really glad that Prof liked our presentation (together with the other group) and he actually wants to invite us to re-present it again to another crowd. Wonderful! It feels absolutely good to have your hard work acknowledged, even though we rushed it only for one week – the ultimate procrastination.

I will finish my individual report as soon as possible, seriously. If I can manage to get it done by the weekend, even better! (continues to dream about finishing the report by tomorrow). I was actually considering doing a late night tonight, to start the engine cracking and get started with the writing, because once you start with the writing, it usually gets easier along the way as the words come to you. However, the boyf seems to put his foot down pretty strongly to that. He wants me to SLEEP. bleahs.

In any case, I have looked at the questions, and picked out the main points for about half of it. I just need to look for a little more information and I’ll be ready to start writing for a good half of it.

And I should get moving to get dinner before watching Button later. I hope I seriously don’t fall asleep because I’ve heard that it’s pretty draggy and I’m actually pretty tired. Didn’t really sleep very well last night. The hot humid days are doing me in. I can’t stand the heat – it’s too much!

Peanut is on her way, in a cab! Ta for now!

Amazement.

Barely anybody in Funan knew what was sillica gel. I’m surprised and irritated. I walked all over the place in search of sillica gel – even challenger doesn’t have it. Everybody asked me what they were – shouldn’t they know?

It was only when the cat reminded me to try camera shops, then I thought of going to my favourite camera shop, John 3.16 to check if they have it anot.

It was the exact same feeling when I walked into John 3.16, as I walked into Jaben – there were no girls and everyone stared at me. -.- Can’t a girl step into the shop? But they were still as friendly as ever, but I could just feel all eyes on me. And they whipped out the thing I was looking for so desperately.

The woes of a girl playing in big boys’ world. Sulks.
