No title post. Lol.

I'm sick. I've been sick for the past 5 days already. Boo. =(

Funnily, I got sick a few hours after writing the previous post. I knew there would be something that would stop me from studying. LOL.

My voice is very sengau right now. Sometimes I think I sound like Fran from The Nanny. LOL.

You know what went through my mind a few days back?

Most of us taking the Accounting major in Monash have the ambition of being an auditor in one of the Big Four (PwC, KPMG, Deloitte, Ernst & Young) once we graduate.

But the thing is, I'm taking the Auditing unit right now and the more I go for the classes, the more I think that auditing might not be want I want to slave my life to.

I mean, put it this way la, while the lecturer was talking about ethics and whistleblowing and how life as an auditor is in reality, I was actually looking around the lecture hall to see which guy has a strong jaw and whether the girl in one of the rows in front of me has fake hair. And I was also thinking about how my lecturer looks like a huggable teddy bear. Lol.

It scares me that the thought of not being an auditor actually crossed my mind because it kinda goes without saying la that you're supposed to be an auditor when you graduate.

And it makes me wonder you know, what other options do I have if I refuse to become an auditor.

I know there are other things I could do, but I just don't see anything yet. But I just know that I might not like being an auditor. I know even right now, that if I become an auditor, after six months I'll be bored out of my mind.

But then again, it's a never say never situation because usually whenever I say I'll never do something, I'll end up doing it anyways.

Haih.

First week rant. Hehehe.

Oh My God.

I can't believe it.

But this is the first Friday of the first week, and I'm actually STUDYING. Or trying to. I wrote some notes, but i can't seem to finish off the stupid Chapter.

I mean, it's Accounting THEORY. Yep, I have to actually read up on theories of accounting. What the hell. It's all words and journals and people disputing each theory that comes about. In the end I know I'm gonna feel like I've learnt everything yet I've learnt nothing since nothing is concrete.

I can feel myself drooping off already. Oh well, at least I tried to study.

LOL.

By the way,

I'm running away, from predictable
Miss reliable, so methodical
Wanna be individual, and original
So radical, and desirable

These lyrics describes exactly i want to do. But obviously I'm not becoming more desirable since I'm actually studying. Bloody hell. Lol.

Oh yeah, there's something that has been nagging on my mind these past couple of weeeks.

Is it just me, but are guys becoming more brand-conscious than girls?

It's just a random observation. I mean, I like branded stuff, but nowadays I feel like the amount of money that some guys spend on one shirt could buy me at least 5 tops. Lol.

But then again I spend most of my time in Sunway, where apparently the rich flaunt everything they have.

So it could just be me who is oblivious to all the branded clothes that I should be wearing. Sorry la. I'm not that rich. Lol.

Oh yeah, I still don't get why people find it weird that:

1. I watch football AND
2. I DON'T SUPPORT MAN UTD. (Arsenal all the way, baby)

It's so strange. It's weird enough to guys that I actually know footballers, and I know it intrigues them that I choose Arsenal over Manchester United.

Bet they don't know that I have an Arsenal calendar hanging on my door and it's Robin van Persie month this month. Lol. Next month is Cesc's month! Yay!

I bet it'll also intrigue them when they find out that one of my good friend (who is a girl, too, mind you) supports Chelsea!

By the way, I supported Malaysia all the way during both their matches with Manchester United this past week. It thrilled me when they scored twice against Man Utd and it broke my heart when I saw them not playing well in the second game, which I went to.

Okiedokes, enough rants, gonna try to get back to studying. Won't be too successful now, though. Facebook is calling. Lol.

Love loads! =)

My internet's too slow.

Been trying to upload the pics from the Langkawi trip to put in a post, but obviously it's going nowhere.

The new sem is starting tomorrow.

And I'm back to having early morning lectures on Mondays.

Gah.

Oh well, here's to another semester!

Will try to post up the Langkawi post ASAP.

Love loads! =)

I'm elated!!!! =)

My results for the semester:

Click on the picture if you're curious to see my results (considering the miniscule amount of people reading this blog, I don't mind putting the results up. Lol).

My marks are in the second last column. For as long as I've been in Monash, I have never had a semester where my lowest mark is 73. I got the SMS for the results when I was on my way back from the LCCT. I was in the car with my mum and Anis and I was so happy when I read the SMS, I screamed in the car.

I almost gave my mum and sister heart attacks when I screeched. LOL.

I was particularly happy with my Tax Law results cause I didn't expect to get such a high mark (it's the highest mark I've gotten so far and probably the highest mark I will ever get!).

That was definitely the best way to end my great trip to Langkawi!

Oh yeah, Langkawi post coming soon. Still uploading the pics! =)

I'm going off to Langkawi tomorrow!

I'm sooooo excited!!!! I haven't gone to Langkawi in 7 years.

Yeah, people say it's boring la, ni la, tu la, but I don't care, I'm still excited.

I love driving by the beach. It calms me. =)

Oh, currently, I love listening to these songs:

David Cook - Lie
The Cranberries - Animal Instinct
Josh Kelley - Tidal Wave
Cobra Starship & Leighton Meester - Good Girls Go Bad
Tinchy Stryder - Number One
Regina Spektor - Eet
Mamma Mia soundtrack - Lay All Your Love On Me
Three Days Grace - Over and Over
Delta Goodrem - I Can't Break It To My Heart (Live version)
Taylor Swift - You're Not Sorry
The Calling - Adrienne

Yep. As usual my playlist is pretty eclectic. Lol.

See you guys after the trip!

Love loads! =)

PS: Try not to miss me too much, k? :p LOL.

Of questions and answers.

Someone once asked me, "Don't you ever want to try alcohol once in your life?"

My answer was "No". It still is no and will always be no.

I know a few people close to me who drink but I've never been tempted to try. I mean, I am one of those few people that can get high just by drinking plain water, so no, I don't feel the need to drink alcohol. The effects might be too scary.

Just ask anyone who's been there about what happens when I drink coffee. Or Spritzer Pop. Or when I get sugar in my system. I can giggle the whole night.

Oh yes, it's very scary.

A few people have asked me, "Do you have a boyfriend?"

My answer: "No. I've never had one"

And they'll be like, "You've never had one????"

And they'll give me this look that I translate as the "is-this-girl-lesbo-or-what" look.

Apparently I'm not the only one with the problem. A lot of people seem to think that if a girl my age does not have a boyfriend, they're lesbo. And it doesn't help my case that most of my close friends are girls.

But funnily, if a guy my age takde girlfriend, takde pulak orang ingat dia gay even if 95% of his friends are guys.

Like I said, I HATE ALL THESE FUCKING DOUBLE STANDARDS.

I know that I'm too picky for my own good. And I know I've said this countless times, but I don't think there's anything wrong with being picky.

I know I'm gonna sound selfish saying this, but I am sick of being a bloody caretaker. I've been taking care of my siblings for almost all of my life, so I'd like to have someone taking care of me for once.

Mind you, I didn't say I was waiting for someone who looks like Brad Pitt because I have looked at myself in the mirror and I know I'm not exactly in the running for the World's Most Gorgeous title.

Is it so wrong for me to ask for a guy who can be my rock?

And I also have this teensy problem with guys that are affected by the "I'm-always-right" syndrome. It annoys me to no end, especially when you know they're wrong.

Sometimes I feel like I see more boys pretending to be men than actually seeing real men. Some of them don't grow up, they just grow old.

Another question I get asked often is, "Do you mind if I smoke here?"

Usually I'll just smile and shake my head, but the fact is, I do mind if people smoke in front of me. The act of smoking still disturbs and disgusts me.

I cried when one of my closest friends told me she smoked. It startled the both of us when the tears started rolling down my cheeks. I still remember when and where that happened.

I can somewhat tolerate the act of smoking, but if possible, please don't do it in front of me. I hate seeing those things. And I don't want to die of secondhand smoke.

Please respect that.

Holidays..........

You know what I've been doing this past two weeks since I've started my holidays?

I've been eating.

Like, really eating.

Like, the I-go-out-almost-everyday-to-eat sort of eating.

Scary, kan?

In no particular order, in these past two weeks, I have eaten (among other things):

• Indonesian food...TWICE (Ayam Penyet in Sunway, and Wang Solo in Taman Dagang)
• Mexican food at Las Carretas
  
• Japanese food at Sushi King cause my sister suddenly got addicted to their soba -__-
• Western food at Tony Roma's
• Chinese food at a Chinese Muslim restaurant in Melawati
  
• Penang food at Little Penang cafe in KLCC
  
• Mamak food at Pelita in Ampang Point (I love their sup kambing!)
• Yong Tau Foo near Ampang Point, too
  
• Korean food at Sunway Pyramid

So, yeah, I think it can be safe to say that so far, my holiday has basically become one big "Jalan-Jalan Cari Makan Around KL & Selangor" trip.

And yes, unfortunately, i think I have gained some weight. =(

But no matter, next week I'm going off to Langkawi with Anis next week! I'm so looking forward to that cause I haven't been to Langkawi in ages!!!! So excited!!!! =D

But I just realised that the day we arrive back to KL, my results are gonna come out, so that's a bit scary.

But I might as well enjoy the trip before the anxiety of getting the results kicks in cause once the anxiety kicks in, I won't be able to think of anything else except for the results. Even now I feel like I just want to see the results already so I can finish my holiday in peace!

What's sad is that the week after my Langkawi trip is the week when the new semester starts. And once the semester starts, I know it would feel like the year has gone by so fast and the next thing I know, it's exam time again.

That is such a scary thought.

Oh well, c'est la vie, no?

Love loads!

PS: Do you guys wanna read something interesting? I went onto the Time.com website and saw these two articles which are basically photos with captions la and I think they're quite an interesting read when you're bored and feel like there's nothing else to do:

• The History of the Bikini (how the bikini actually evolve. Somehow I feel like the first picture is a fake.)
  
• Top 10 Celebrity Funerals (my favourites are the John Lennon's and Lady Diana's)

Numbers =)

Warning: a Really nerdy post. Thou has been warned.

Anyways, I stumbled upon THIS article yesterday, and I couldn't help but smile and got excited, too.

And then I realised that i like numbers in general. They fascinate me, which is why I don't mind doing Accounting and Econometrics as my majors because they basically revolve around numbers (although in Econometrics I'm starting to see more symbols than numbers, which is kinda scary).

I know some people who shudder at the thought of numbers and calculations, but I absolutely love doing calculations.

Like, when I'm on the road, I'll subconsciously start adding up the numbers in the number plate in front of me so that I'll get a nice single digit in the end. Say, if the car's number plate 8467, I'll add all the numbers up, 8+4+6+7 = 25 and then i'll add 2 and 5 up so that the end number is a single digit (which is 7, in this case).

And after that I'll start thinking, 7 isn't really a nice number cause I like even numbers better. Hahahaha.

Yes, I do that subconsciously while I'm driving. A bit scary when you think about it.

I guess I can blame my mum for that cause she taught me this back when I was really young so that I'll have something to keep me occupied when we were stuck in traffic jams.

I guess old habits die hard? Lol.

Oh, while we're on this subject, I think the numbers 3, 6 and 9 are really interesting.

I think everyone knows that if you take a figure, say 441, and you see that when you add up all these numbers, these numbers will add up to 9 (4+4+1), then you know you can divide 441 by 9, right?

But I also figured out that if say all the numbers in a figure adds up to 3, 6 0r 9, then you can actually divide these figures by 3. Try taking any figure, and if the numbers add up to 3, 6 or 9, then the figure can be divided by 3.

Also right, if you take an even number that adds up to 3, 6 or 9, then that number can be divided by 6. Like, 144 adds up to 9, but because it's an even number you can divide it by 6, too.

See how my mind works? I can see patterns in numbers. Hahaha.

I don't know why I think of all these things, though.

Don't worry, I'm not posting any more funny calculations/numerical nonsense that'll make you guys go what the heck is wrong with this girl? cause it'll just confuse you guys (and me, too!)

So yeah, that's basically something that I've never told anybody before, cause my weirdness level will so go up in people's books. Lol. I mean, imagine going around saying "I love numbers!!!"

Oh yeah, I can see some people hiding already.......

Okay la, just wanted to post that down. I'm off!

Love loads! =)

PS: In case you guys were wondering, yes, I do watch Numbers on AXN. No surprise there, right? :P
