punctuality.

being malaysian we've always been used to coming late. let it be for class, appointments or just your casual dates. which is really a bad habit, something definitely not to be proud off..

but its a habit which for some is rather hard to get rid off.. even now when i make go out with my malaysian mates, i always have to ask..

'2pm yea? okay. malaysian time or english time?'

malaysian time means that its gonna be plus/minus 30 minutes..
english time means spot on 2pm..

yep.

today, i almost made a fool outta myself because of that habit..

i had an interview to get my National Insurance number today at 1pm.. so i had already planned to skip class. ironically, the class at 11am was also cancelled so basically.. there was no reason for me to be late..

not entirely.

so i took my time cooking my lunch and decided to watch topgear for abit..

bad mistake, cus topgear takes about a whole hour.. which meant it'll finish by about 12.30pm, i know for a fact that the train takes exactly 8 minutes from guildford to woking.

so somehow, i assumed that when the clock hits 12.30pm i'd rush off and reach the train station in 10 minutes.. took the train and reach woking in another 8 minutes, walk to the building which took about another 4 minutes.

yep i'd make it for sure.

NOPE!

topgear finished at 12.24pm, but my stomach decided to ache at that moment. so i rushed off to the loo, quickly dressed and rushed off.. had to make a stop at the atm cause i didnt have any cash.. which by the time i've already used up 10 extra minutes... the clock was already at 12.40pm.

shite!

then only did i realize that the train station was gonna take me more than 5 minutes to reach so i started to jog.. and run !

reached the train station.. oh was my calculations all wrong this time..

i forgot that the train had its own schedule and it wasnt on my side. blagh! at that point i felt like a total idiot, makes matters worst. the train stations monitors for departure time and platforms were down.. so i couldnt tell what time will i actually reach woking.

now i was feeling like all kinds of stupid.

managed to get a hold of one of the train workers and he said that the next train to woking was at 1.17pm..

!?!?!?!??!!!!!

quick thinking, i opened my bag and called up the place and told them that there was some engineering works and i was gonna be late...*fingers crossed* better them know that i was late and them getting pissed while waiting for me..

thankfully, the lady said alright. just get there as quickly as possible.

got there at 1.25pm. turned too soon, missed the damn building. but manage to get there at abt 1.37pm.

sat down, did the interview.. which turned out to be more filling up forms.. then left.

PHEW!

that has got to be the only time i've ever had to run around campus.. and felt really stupid at the same time.

i now vow to always be early and not late.

:D

loathing

somehow this semester.. i simply hate fridays..

well basically, its because i have labs on fridays and half the time.. its really tiring with it covering the whole day plus i have to work for another 2 hours after that..

it really makes the weekend feel really short..

well, i think today is one of those really sucky fridays then..

i just finished my labs and ughh.. i just feel so ... blah!

i'm fine with doing experiments, mind that their actually worth doing and have lots to learn from em.. but what i really just cant stand are the demonstrators.. its already messed up enough that the manual sometimes help.. but mostly doesnt give a single clue what your suppose to do..

these demonstrators are just simply useless, phD students my arse.

just today, i was half way through doing my first experiments and this phD(woooooooo!) demonstrator comes by and says we're doing it all wrong.. fine. so we stopped what we're doing and listen..

he goes on saying we dont know what were doing.. were suppose to be doing this, instead of that.. that shouldnt be there.. and then he left to chat wit the other demonstrators..

and later he comes by again, checks everything. we explain to him.. and he just nods his head and walks off.. comes back half an hour later and tell us were doing it all wrong again..

i mean bloody hell, if you already know were that hopeless stick around then! not dissapear and come back just to say 'your doing it wrong...' and walk off..

plus i swear, this bloke was raising his voice when he was explaining what were doing wrong. as if he was scolding us for being idiots.

bruv, go shove something up your arse..

if you cant teach us, tough luck trying to be a lecturer! im sure your students are gonna looovee you!

but it does explain alot if your gonna be a researcher, cus for sure you idiots have shitty pr skills. but do shove something up your arse anyways.

blah.

pissy pissy day..

off to work in 30mins..

man i'm gonna be knackered. again !

Because telco company's are shit

specially for my beloved sister suraya.. whom i texted a very nice happy bday msg on her bday but she didnt receive it .. so imma post one special entry just for her..

HAPPY BELATED BDAYYYYY KAK SUEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

jangan emo emo eh... saye tak lupe nyeee... :D

hehee..

happy vday all.. whilst most of you's are joyfully celebrating your love with your better halves either by spending excessively on expensive dining and roses or be the lucky one being pampered and spent on..

non the less .. may your love be as joyful and merrily for years to come..

hopefully.

haha!

anyways, i'm not feeling so well. i've been down with a slight flu and sorethroat since saturday.. which i obsessively finished a whole strip of losenges in 10 hours. which worked brilliantly cus my throat was fine on sunday :)

but then my nose started to act up and now its all sniffy and depressing..

yes. a very happy valentines to me too..

:D

so yea. my nose is acting up again and i'm off to shower ... lates people !

okay, since my video post i've been getting tonnes o comments.. some were positive.. some negative.. yadayada..

but nothing beats a message from home when your dad says to ya;

'you sorta look like a girl..'

okay, which is such a typical comment from my dad. bleh.

anyways, i wont give any reason for why i speak with a slang.. just accept it already! :D and no i dont speak with a slang in malay. it only comes out when i speak english.

this semester i plan to be spend more time with my coursemates .. so doing my part, i was in class earlier on doing some group work and one of my 'brilliant' friend from nigeria gives me the most ridiculous question..

'your a muslim?'
'yeap im a muslim..'
'but you dont look like a muslim..'
'okay.. how the bloody hell is a muslim suppose to look like then? explain.. describe..'
'he's just confused that your not a women and you dont wear a scarf around your head like the rest of the muslims he's seen..'

i burst out laughing cause of the remark that an english friend made..

anyways, late for class now.. tata !
