Crikey! It really is over! (Actually 1 last paper tomorrow :P) Hahaha.. I feel like a huge burden has been lifted off my shoulder, irregardless of the fact whether or not I’ve done well in the examinations. I’m just really glad it is all over and that I now have time for myself, my family and my long lost friends who have dutifully stepped aside and listened to me whine when I felt like giving up.
About the papers, I thought I did less then what I can do. Sure, I did lay down the notes and sat in front of them for hours, but my mind ain’t really there most of the time. Pffft.
I still carry hopes that at least I can get into university, but if I don’t, I’d just like to apologise to all of you who had wished me all the best countless of times and wrote long letters giving me tips on how to study. InsyaAllah, I will get into uni but if i don’t, I’m sorry and I will try harder.
I have already carved out a backup plan just in case I do not get into the university for this intake. Huhu. It’s better to prepare the umbrella before the rain, yes?
So henceforth, anyone who asks me how I did, (The below picture is actually a GIF image and I have numbered the “pages” hoho)
Get the idea? Kwangkwang~ All I want to do right now is enjoy myself for the next few months until I get the results.
So now I’m currently unemployed and I need money for my holiday expenses. Mum has given me the OK to go get a job as long as it’s not in the retail or fnb industry, so anyone who has any lobangs, please, PLEASE give me a shoutout. I’m desperate :(
Willing to work Monday to Fridays, best if office hours wakakaka. I can type down stuff rather fast without having to look at the keyboard (thanks blog!), don’t mind sitting in front of the computer for long hours as my eyes are already screwed and I promise not to blog about work politics on my blog.
Since I am so bloody itching to blog after the month long hiatus (congrats Faddy!), I shall just backtrack a few weeks to that Hari Raya family/business gathering which was organized by my Ka$hing Uncle.
The event was actually a Dinner for my Uncle’s company but he invited much of his own relatives to make the dinner more “happening” as year by year, his workers seem to be the unresponsive kind. Haha. Yeap, its an annual thing but conducted in different resorts all over Johore :)
Unlike the past few years, this time the event had a theme to it : Arabian Nights. I was too busy stuffing the freaking delicious Arabic buffet and sheeshaing that I did not go around taking photos but mark my words, it was like a terrorist gathering I tell you! Hahaha! Women in arabian long dresses covering their faces, men in gamis and turbans.. Even most of the kids dressed up!
Anz, if your brother who has the SLR camera but no internet access has somehow uploaded the pictures online, please pass them to me ok baby? Thankyew!
My favourite niece Aleia didn’t dress up though. Haha. Apparently she won’t be able to take the heat and it’s of no point dressing her up as she will need to change every few hours due to her vomit :/ Still cute rocking that flower though hahaha.
Best part of course was that the other cousin, Lily, tagged along for the first time. She being the busy woman that she is working, usually disappear from our lives 99% of the time, suddenly making an appearance only during Hari Raya. Haha. But somehow this year our paths crossed like so many times, its cool.
We’re even meeting up later on the 20th December. Yay! :D Here’s to cousins with whom you can talk to effortlessly even after months of not meeting up.
After the whole event was wrapped up at around 1230am, the Uncle’s family and their 4 cars drove us all the way deep deep deep into the vast regions of Johore, into this big estate area called the Leisure Farms. It’s like subdivided into many estates, one of which hold the houses which my Uncle’s family stay in.
So Kak Suzy (my Uncle’s daughter) had rented one of the 2 storey terraces there for my family and Anz’s family to stayover as we wanted to go family visiting the day after. The place we slept in… it was heavenly.
The whole place in my opinion was built around a Contemporary Zen-like theme, mixing bare concrete tastefully with leather, wood and the lush surroundings of the golf course, lake and shrubs which concealed our terrace. So pretty! And the swimming pool was cool as it had black tiles :D
A survey around the houses next door led to a realisation that most of the houses there are unoccupied but owned, which actually equates to rich Singaporean’s weekend/holiday getaway. Wah syiok man! Who wants to pool money with me to get a house here? Haha.. The makcik-makcik cleaners were very friendly too i loiike.
I spent the morning frolicking away in the pool, basking myself under the warm morning sun and occasionally glancing at my notes hahaha. Must make myself feel less guilty what.. By around 1130am, the driver for our Mercedes van (wahaha mananya mercedes je padahal van Mercedes biasa) picked us up for our relatives visiting.
Sadly, my k750i died after the above last photographs. No, not because of dear Aleia but because stupid me forgot to turn off the music player function before sleeping. Battery seeped dry by the next morning, I tell ya.
But other then that and the fact that I had a splitting headache somewhere in the middle of the day, it was fun. We dropped by shopping malls and bought tons of Vcds and Dvds (whole season of Princess Hours tau AhBoi. Rm$15 je! wakakaka!), food and more food :D Kak Luthien, I am putting on weight! Happy for me? Hahhaa..
We also tried the firecrackers (mercun) kampung style. Ok I didn’t try it but I did watch my cousin. I was too worried that bloody thing will explode in my hand uh :P My verdict is that it was overrated as the only thing that the mercun did was explode with a loud bang. Ok, this is stupid but I was expecting mini fireworks.
I finally managed to rid my room of the stacks of papers that I have been sleeping on. What a breather. Ok, actually I didn’t throw away the more important stuff just in case shit happens, nevertheless they have been stuffed into a corner never to be seen again for the next few months hahaha. I too threw away all those shitty lovey dovey and Nancy Drew novels cluttering my shelves. MUST GROW UP!
Hmm.. I want to blog more but I have no stories to share. AIYOH HOW CAN?!I GOT MANY STORIES TAU LAST TIME! Sigh. Ok nevermind, I should start mugging for my last paper anyway :)
