When You're Stressed...

...you start thinking about weird stuff. Some of the lines I've heard tossed about while rushing through this semester were:

1. My head feels heavy, yet my brain mass isn't increasing ~ Red Hot Chilli Popia
2. Bunuh diri (kill self) ~ Yours truly
3. Wan die liao ~ Yours truly
4. What def? ~ Yours truly
5. Tired ~ Almost everyone

Red Hot Chilli Popia even composed a short song in between reports...

*sigh* The crazy things we do. I am now craving for McDonald's, mom's spinach, garlic bread, fried mushrooms, kuay teow soup & ham choi soup...

Upcoming schedule updates:
10Nov: Project Management & Economics Final Paper
18Nov: Wastewater Treatment Final Paper
18Nov-3Dec: Debate training
3-7Dec: Royals Intervarsity Debate Tournament

In between I'm involved in debate research, music classes...I'm in the midst of preparing a music course syllabus for next semester (can't reveal much as I know little!). My blanket needs to be washed, I'm perpetually hungry & I miss my family terribly.

I've been obsessed with the following movies:
1. Hairspray
2. Lion King
3. Sinbad: Legend of the 7 Seas
4. Bambi II (not Bambi!)
5. Without A Paddle

And hooked on the following songs:
1. Come What May
2. Ever Ever After
3. You Can't Stop The Beat
4. Paralyzer
5. A wide array of Disney music: I even burned a CD with a collection of Disney soundtracks to listen while I drive! o.O

How I Met Your Mother Season 1 & 2 are being replayed every week on my laptop.

So people have different ways of dealing with stress, yeh?

I'm feeling guilty because I put my thesis on the back burner & I've yet to meet my supervisor to check on my progress. He's a great supervisor; I'm just a lousy charge *sniff*

There. Whine over *temporarily*

I know I repeat this many times but I'll be back with PROPER articles soon :)

When is the Right Age to Marry?

Image
I went out with Grandma today & she made a light threat that I marry before her time is up. *knocks wood* *true story* That made me think: assuming she's still around for the next 10 yrs, I've less than that to find someone to spend the rest of my life with. In Malaysia, the minimum age of marriage is 18 with parental consent, 21 without parental consent. Having been in 2 serious relationships & both lasting for 4 months, I'd say I've little to no experience in having a deep relationship with another person. I'm 23 now, I remember being 18 & bragging that I'll have at least 10 boyfriends before I wed at 30.  Pfft. How reality has changed that estimation for me; at best, I can hope to meet Mr. Right within the next 5 yrs & start preparing for life as Mrs. Right. It won't be easy finding Mr. Right especially when Mom has a list of requirements for me to follow; I swear my ears ring everytime she tells me that "your husband

Fancy a Massage in Bangsar?

Image
I'm a fan of massages, I like people rubbing the aches away. Good thing massage centres are common in Malaysia and I've surveyed a few places in Bangsar so here's the rundown: 1) Chow Yang Reflexology This is probably the most popular massage centre in Bangsar. Their staff are local or from either Myanmar or Thailand. You need a high pain threshold to enjoy their foot massage; you might find it enjoyable if you prefer the strong kind of massage. I only tried their food and shoulder; unfortunately my neck ached more the next day and I never tried it again.  2) Everhealth This is a popular massage chain and the staff are China nationals, so communication is difficult. However the staff are polite, plus they have a variety of rooms (private and sharing). I got a young female masseuse during my 1st experience; she wasn't very strong and didn't get all the aches out. The 2nd time I tried the traditional body massage and the masseuse was STRONG! Check out their

Here We Go Again...

Frankly I can't be the only one annoyed with all this talk about using English vs mother tongue for Science & Maths, right? I did an article about that previously.  All this talk is starting to piss me off. Why? Apparently many Malaysians are freaking ignorant & plain DUMB. I sent a letter to the Star explaining my stand on this issue, so I'll put it here (I don't know if it'll be published but frankly, enough is enough): "Hi I'm writing in response to the letter by CONCERNED CITIZEN on 18 June in the Star "What about English in Accountancy". My sister studied in form 6 arts stream, now she's studying accounting at a private university; although her major subjects were taught in Malay at form 6, she had no problem switching to English at the university level. This brings me to my point that the root of the problem is many young Malaysians these days aren't speaking enough English, hence the worry that they can't cope with the chan
