living the foxy way ^^

February 21, 2007

first of all, i deeply apologise for the lack of updates. i know, i know. it has almost been 2 months since i posted something. hehe. to be frank there were several times i really felt like posting something, but somehow or another the lazy bug still kicks in. procrastination still prevails afterall =D

well, seems like the workload from my college isn't as heavy as my friend's from Taylor's. I'm in Sunway, by the way. Since January i've been getting complaints about the overpiling load of assignments and homeworks. Though mine doesn't seem to be THAT heavy (so far), my timetable is really taking a toll on me. Silly me is taking a total of 5 subjects: Economics, Accounting, Math, Law and General Paper. (yes, i've finally decided to forego all the sciences altogether. been wanting to do that since form 4. hehehe.) As it is 6 hours per subject per week, it sums up to a total of 30 hours of classes in college. if you include the 3 hours of LAN (malaysian studies) per week, it will be 33 hours per week. gawd! it is seriously very taxing okay. most of the time my classes are back to back, as in no break in between. you finish one class, you walk to another classroom, and sit there for another one and a half hour. then the whole cycle repeats itself. for example tuesdays would be from 10am-5pm (no lunch break at all, mind you) and wednesdays would be from 8.30am-5pm, with an hour and a half of break in between. this explains why i'm sooooo jealous of some of my friends who are from taylors. they have plenty of breaks in between! a few hours somemore! =(

on the other hand, the NS camp lists are finally out. though i found out mind a few days later than everyone else as i was in my hometown, Penang. actually it started off with a casual phone call with my darling. and since he was in the cyber cafe, i asked him to check for me as well. mind you, that time i didn't know it has been released, so i wasn't expecting to hear anything. hence i couldn't really believe my ears when i heard sarawak. i really thought he was pulling a prank on me. but then he started reading out the address: Kem Puncak Permai, blablabla, Bau, Sarawak. i was kind of waiting for him to shout 'gotcha!' , but nope, few minutes has passes and there's no sign of a joke. slowly i start to regain my rationality, no. this is true. my heart sanked, and i was struggling with tears once again.

since the day i found out i was selected, i never stopped worried about the camp i would be sent to. since the first day of February, almost everyday, i would go to that website to see if there's any news regarding the list of camps. i wanted somewhere in Peninsular, so at least i would still have some visitors. albeit my dear constantly assured me that he would visit me regardless of where i was sent to, however deep inside i still know i were to be in the East Malaysia, chances of me seeing him within that 3 months would be close to nil. i know, AirAsia's air fare of RM9.90 seems rather appealing, but there are various hidden fuel charges and taxes which are not included yet. sigh. well, couldn't do much now. can i? currently i'm just looking out for any contacts from Bau or Kuching. hopefully the journey from KL - Kuching - Bau is not too costly.

on a lighter note, Happy Chinese New Year to all!
