LET IT RAIN

It's raining heavily as I'm typing this. Usually, at times like this, I would have drifted off to slumberland. But since I don't have my Pooh with me now, so here I am, still very awake.

> Won't be elaborating on Cesc's awesomeness during his 28-minute cameo against Aston Villa last Sunday because it's all over the world. :) Anyway, the bbs are playing tonight. Or should I say early tomorrow morning? Whatever. We will be without Capi Cesc. There's still no news about the extent of his injury and how long he will be out. I really really really really really hope it's nothing serious. News have it that he could be out up to three weeks. Three freaking weeks.

> Cesc's absence tonight leads to this comment from Le Boss. Now I don't know if that's a hint that Verma will deputise as our captain tonight, I'm slow. But if that Belgian defender wears the armband tonight, I will for sure be squealing like I've lost my mind. Period.

> Tomorrow's the last day of 2009. Then we'll head off to 2010. I'm gonna be turning a year older, and hopefully a year wiser too. But without losing my sense of fangirling. Hopefully. XD My aims for 2010 :

• Pass every ACCA papers I take next year. Exactly zero margin of error. Also, next sem will be third sem that I'm taking that bloody F5 paper. So to fail that paper once more will indicate that I'm a freaking retarded idiot.

• Buy a new phone. Preferably iPhone (duh) or a Blackberry. Or maybe I'll just settle with yet another Nokia. But I definitely want one with Wi-Fi because I want to able to tweet whenever I feel like it. Ok next!

• Get a 1 terabyte HD. I've been happily downloading stuffs to my laptop without considering the amount of space all those stuffs take. I think my laptop will crush any time soon. So yeah, an external hard drive would be a massive help.

• Talk more. Ha! My boss been saying how I should 'talk more with the students when doing the check-out'. The thing is, I can talk a lot with students that I'm quite close with. It's just the students that I'm not that familiar with that I find it kinda hard to think of what to talk about. Whatever. Point is, I should be more talkative.

• Eat more and eat healthily. Breakfast, brunch, lunch, tea, dinner, supper. No more skipping brekkie. And that means I have to wake up early everyday instead of waking up whatever time I feel like. Gah....... Fine, I'll try..

• Learn to play guitar. And I mean, seriously. I planned to do this after my exam earlier this month, but then, it's ME we're talking about. When did I ever stick to my plan? Never. XD So next year, no more excuses, must.learn.guitar!

• Fangirl harder over the bbs!

> My (not so) little (by age, not physically) brother is gonna switch college and move and stay here with us. By us, I mean me and my other siblings. And that means I have all 7 out my 8 siblings residing here in Kajang. And Kak Ni (who is currently studying in Korea) will be staying with me after she graduated in February next year. Woohoo! Watch out people! The Salims are gonna dominate Kajang! Muahahhaha! Ok not funny.

Shall talk again later. Until then. :)

WHAT'S IN MY HEART IT'S NOT IN YOUR HEAD

Because I'm a lazy ass, I'll be blogging in point form :

> New layout. Simple. Nothing special bout it. But it's the simplicity that made me choose this template. I wanted to use another template, which is much simpler than this, but it needs massive amount of editing. So, no thanks. I'll just settle with this one. Besides, it's blue. When was the last time I had blue template for my blog?

> My parents, Kak Irin & family, my two brothers, Boyot and Man, and my brother-in-law are in Korea right now. It's been 3 days now. Half of them are gonna be back here tomorrow, another half on Sunday. I decided not to tag along because... well, first, I don't have the money and I don't want my dad to spend even more with me tagging along. Second, I'm working. Theory being, work --> I get money, go to Korea --> I spend money. Third, well...... I'm planning to save my travelling-overseas-virginity for UK, or London to be specific. :P

> The thing with me not joining the trip to Korea is, I'm stuck here alone. Well, almost alone. Usually when I'm done with work, I'll stop by the cc and asked my brother to teman me to have my dinner. But thankfully, yesterday, my boss decided to treat us assistants Christmas Eve dinner. We went to McD's since it's the nearest place to eat. Boss originally wanted to go have satay near Sungai Ramal. But heck, there's no way we're gonna drive all the way there when it's already 10.30pm. Anyway, thanks for the treat, Mr Tan. :)

> Also, since I was feeling all alone this afternoon, I decided to check at Kinokuniya's site whether Tempted (6th book of the House of Night series) is available here. Boy, was I excited when I saw the answer. Plus, it's cheaper than the previous books. Or are they all of the same price? Whatever. Anyway, so excited I was, immediately got ready to head off to KLCC to get that damn book. And then I arrived Kino, went straight to the shelf, and grab the book. And then I decided to browse at the Sports section. Liverpool shelf... United shelf.... Chelsea shelf.... Arsenal shelf.... And then I saw this

So I grabbed it as fast as I could, probably faster than you can scream 'Cesc!' XD Anyhoos, so I put Tempted back to its shelf, and paid for Cesc. And then I took the train home with a big fat smile on my face. :) Well, literally. :P

> What else.. What else.. Oh. I FINALLY tried the Ireland's Potato at Sunway Pyramid. But heck, I had no bloody idea that it's so bloody expensive! The flavour that I like is the most expensive one! Hmmph! Which reminds me, I still haven't paid a visit to Pyramid's Krispy Kreme yet. Not even once. Gotta remind myself to go there when I hit Pyramid again.

> On the same day that I tasted the Ireland's Potato, I went to sign up for next sem's paper with Kak Liza at the new college. The fees are cheaper than the one my current college is charging. Which reminds me that I still haven't met the admin people of my current college to tell them that I'm taking a break (from them) next semester. I shall find a date where I'm free and actually care to get my arse off my laptop and drive all the way to PJ and do whatever it is I was supposed to do weeks ago. Haih...

> That's it! No wonder I feel so different typing up this post. I haven't mention any single thing about football. Hihih. So what's up with my bbs. We beat Orange FC Hull last weekend. Way to go, bbs! :) Though I'm not entirely happy that the FA charged us and Hull for 'failing to control our players'. I think the FA expected the boss to run onto the pitch along with a cane in his hand and spank the bbs so that they stop fighting. Heh.

> This is totally random. It sucks a whole freaking lot to lose a best friend man. Sucks even more when that man happens to be of the type that you dislike.

> Some music stuff, I think Pixie Lott's album is better than Cheryl Cole's. Also I think Paramore's Brand New Eyes is better than their Riot. I actually wanted to fall asleep halfway through listening to Riot. Heh.

CAN'T THINK OF A FREAKING TITLE

Well hello. Yes, I'm still alive. So back to blogging. And tweeting. And FB-ing. And bbs-stalking. Some bits and pieces :

> Getting your first day of period on the day you have F9 exam is not amusing. At all. The stomach cramp, ugghh.. But thanks to Mother, Kak Awin and Panadol Menstrual, I was feeling better by the time exam kicked off started. The paper itself was....... bleh. I'm 49% sure I'll pass. Hopefully.

> F5. Is. Evil. Enough said. See you again next semester.

> Speaking of, I still haven't make up my mind about what papers to take next semester. But one thing for sure, I have to take F5 again. That's how sure I am about failing that paper. I still have F4, F7 and F8 before I can progress to P papers. Hmm.. I'm tempted to take F4, F5 and F8. I probably should seek for advise.

> Moving on to my bbs. :) Heck yes we're now third, with a game in hand. 6 points behind Chelski and 3 behind Mancs. That looks good. Hopefully Chelski will drop more points in January when their players are off for the African Cup thingy.

Ok this sucks. I already thought of the things I'm gonna blog about while I was studying and now that I'm actually free and ready to blog, all those things just poof! Disappear. I should probably jot down whatever I'm thinking from now on. Which would not be a good thing if I'm drooling at a pic of Verma and decide to think write down what I'm thinking. Ok I'm rambling. Should stop now.

LIFE OH LIFE

Then I'm free.

THERE'S A PART OF ME WON'T LET YOU GO

I'm still not done with all those exam thingies so this is gonna be a quick one.

So yesterday was the last day of EDC. Also the last class for this semester. Now, I've always feel sad after the last day of EDC for previous semesters. But this time, the feeling is deeper. I managed to focus in class during our revision until a friend mentioned about something, and instantly I got sad, worried. It's disturbing, very very disturbing.

And if you ask me what's the biggest lesson that I learnt from the two-week revision classes, it's definitely that mom knows best.

Now, back to studying.

IT FELT SO GOOD

Arsenal 3 - 0 Tottenham Hotspur

Yeah baby, we ARE the Kings of North London! Lesson learnt, Robbie flippin Keane : NEVER play mind games with us. And why yes, I was so flippin happy/shocked with Cesc's goal that I actually stood up and did a little happy dance right in front of my BIL after that goal. But really, what an amazing goal. :)

Anyway, I FINALLY moved in to my new house. Yes the house which we (me, my bro and my sis) started renting 2 months ago but I am the only one who actually care enough to do something bout that damn house. Decided to move in since I think I should start my revision soon, which in this case means tomorrow onwards. So, studying at the new house means less distraction since there's no Astro and no internet connection. Yes you read it right, NO INTERNET CONNECTION. Yet. :P So that will lead to less tweets, less blog updates, less Facebook-ing, less Verma-Googling, less everything I do when I go online. This dull life shall last until I'm done with my exams which is in December. Oh hey, that's "only" a month to go. T.T

So, shall I announce that this blog is on hiatus mode?

YOU WRONGED ME OUT FOR SOMETHING I THOUGHT WAS RIGHT

*I had no idea why the fans held Cesc's number. Maybe they wanted Cesc to score? If Dudu was available maybe they would've held #9 instead.. :P *

Arsenal 3 - 1 Birmingham

Scored 2 and conceded 1 in the first half, then Shava scored the only goal in the second half. I would've been happier if we kept a clean sheet though. But a win is a win, and 3 points is all that matters. I kind of feel sorry for the Scousers. They lost because of the big red ball. Was it a ball or a balloon? Whatever it is, heck. That thing was punched onto the pitch by a Liverpool fan. Yes, a 'wise' fan indeed. Hmm.. And Chelski lost too. They had Aston Villa. I don't know how did that happen. Not that I care anyway.

And then we had AZ Alkmaar yesterday for Champions League. Capi Cesc scored in the first half and we kept the one-goal lead till the 93rd minute. Then when we conceded. Yes, frustrating. We lost 2 points. And oh, this match was almost as painful to watch as the Foolham match, except that we didn't concede at Foolham. Definitely not a match that I'll be eager to watch when the repeat is on TV.

Anyway... I sound serious and boring, don't I? Truth is, I'm just tired. Spent the half of the day cleaning up the house that I still haven't moved in despite started renting it from September onwards. Don't ask me why I haven't moved in. Enough said that working on something on your own when you know in the end other people are benefiting from it is just so........ frustrating? I don't know. And it's damn annoying when you're the only one who actually cares to do something about it while the others just can't be bothered. Now I'm starting to get pissed off. Gotta cool down...... Cool down.. Cool down.. Cool down.. Think Cesc and his dorkiness............ :))

Okie. I realize I haven't been updating much bout college and such stuffs. Anyway, MOCK is over and that means no more usual classes. My EDC/EFC aka revision class will start in 2 weeks. Gonna be joining Kak Liza and the rest for F5. Then I have a week off and then we'll continue with F9 revision. Oh I dare not think how F9 EDC will be. I could barely survive the previous Friday when we had F9 from 8 to 5.30. Let alone 3 days of EDC. I might have to rely on Starbucks' Java Chips since it kept Kak Liza awake that Friday. Heh. That's just an excuse for me to spoil myself with expensive drink.. :P

And that's for that, me thinks. Tomorrow's gonna be a busy day at Kumon centre since the kids had Monday off so there'll be plenty of homework to be marked. Shall get some rest now. And that's another excuse for me to sleep early and wake up late tomorrow.
