waking up.

i had an awesome dream last nite.. only to wake and realize that i was late for class !

haha. thats how good it was..

i shant say what it was.. as its quite personal anyways.. it was good.. left me thinking abit ..

anyways classes started.. and i've decided what subjects imma gonna take this semester.. i think i'll be taking an extra subject this semester.. just incase i screw anything up last semester..

results are supposed to be out on friday.. and its creeping me out..

this semester is the point turner.. its either do or die this time around.. i've gotta buck up if i wanna get good grades. plus this semester's subject is more indepth and i'd say significantly more interesting than last years..

not to mention more complex, so theres no room for slacking.

combining studies and work something new for me.. i've never had to juggle both on the same day. it was either just work or just studying.. so far its been alrite, getting used to it. but i find that i quite tired by the end of the day..

i have to force myself to sleep by 12 if not i'd have trouble waking up for the next day's 9am class..

so its all about dicipline..

at first i thought what i was doing was already bad enough.. working and studying..

then 10 minutes ago i had a small chat with a mate from the place i was working..

he's name is ricardo, born in portugal but raised and lived in brazil which is awesome.. cus i think those 2 countries are really cool. well perhaps its the football influence talking... anyways, he's only been here since august last year.. which was a month earlier than me.. but before he got here.. he didnt speak a single word of english.. and for what i think, he's making incredible progress for a person who has only been here for 5 months..

anyways, his mom gave him just enough money to come here and if he wants more money..he has to go back to brazil to get it.. so he's now shuffling 2 jobs and studying at the same time.. he works from 7-9am in the morning and 5-8pm in the afternoon.. and has classes in between..

i think thats just amazing.. its takes alotta dicipline and strength to do what he does.. though there are some other malaysians who are shuffling 2 jobs as well.. but their all sponsored students.

and he always has a smile on his face when he works in the afternoon.. which i think is brilliant..

with people like that.. how can you not look up to them and work harder with whatever your currently doing..

to me.. not working means no shopping..to him it means no food..

so yea.. imma be strong and do the best i can to achieve my goals this year.. i will make 2007 as good as it was in 2005..
