It's Raining..

because there are people karaoke-ing across the road.


Akasians living in certain blocks will understand.

First Week (Part 2)

There are still a lot of things to be written about this week, so I decided to make a second part of the 'story'.

Azreen's recently updated status reminded me of something...

Fact no.1: I was very jealous when I saw parents sending their kids back to college last Monday.

Although I was grinning all my way walking into Akasia, the huge smile and excitement didn't last long. Carrying my luggage of 30kg was enough to make me jealous of the kids who had their parents to send them into the hostel area, helped them to carry everything into their room, and even hung around with them at the car park.

After a few trips to the guard house where I left my luggage, I also had to carry back my boxes from the TV room. It was tiring. It was quite emo-ing. However I learnt something.

*beware of perasan sentences, which is about to emerge soon..*

I felt like a champion. Seriously. Honestly. (I am typing this with a serious face).

I felt that I'm a real college student, being able to pass the first test upon reaching this land of uncertainties. (Exaggerating a bit here, I know).

I felt awesomely awesome. 

Allow me to do some self-motivation on my own blog, please.

...and I understood something. Sometimes you just have to believe in yourself that you can do something without having to rely on people always. Yes, sometimes you need support, but it's the moments like this when you view yourself as being capable of doing something.

That was my first perasan moment here. It made me appreciate myself more. 

Adding to the perasan-ess, 4 days of muscle pain ain't bad at all yo. This is embarrassing, but I have to say I was happy to see my biceps as I faced the mirror. I'm normal. I'm normal. :P

Enough with the perasan story.

Let me think of some random things.

Aha.

"Do I look like a person with credibility?" - *arranges jacket, looks into the mirror, rushing to leave the room.*

"You look like you."

I couldn't thank Queen enough for the answer, which somehow meant something really meaningful to me despite being said in the usual Queen style.

...and joke of the week. (I don't know if anyone gets it. Should try with someone outside the house).
- If moi is porridge, then amoi should be aporridge? XP

What am I doing? I should be studying now! D=

First Week

Here comes the weekly report. 

Actually I wanted to wait till tomorrow to write this, but let's just leave another story for tomorrow's post. It's Friday Friday..and we were singing that song as we (gleefully) hopped off the bus this morning.

...and it seems to be a ritual to sing Pokemon's theme song for every start of the schooling (or college-ing?) season. The lyrics somehow speaks to me...

"Our courage will pull us through."

This week has been fine so far. Got my grades for last sem's finals, which ehem, made me a person of "having a complete set of grades". You know what I'm trying to say. I've remarkably stop comparing my grades with others and I believe God sees my effort and I'll have to do my best this sem. I'm not into depression (yet) and I'm planning to maintain this optimism that I'm having. (Yay!). Goodbye emo Fiona. Optimistic Fee is coming to town.

Selected photo of the day: ME HAS A VISION... :P

Got a first row seat in class, which was my target since last sem. Bwahaha. Now's the time to fight my sleepiness. 

Talking about sleepiness, I'm actually quite sleepy now. Still lacking inspiration to write anything philosophical.

I...need..to...nap...........

This is Real Life

AAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Screaming in delight. I guess.

Woke up from a very short evening nap feeling fully recharged. The clock seems like not moving at all. I feel great.

Went to college for registration today, which revealed both good and bad news. Good news is that there's no double period for Maths this sem, which makes me feel a bit optimistic about surviving the lessons. Bad news, my housemate is going to fast-track, which means there will only be the three of us left in the 4th sem. Feel happy for her, but sad at the same time.

Been doing nothing all evening, other than rearranging the books and changing Jing's guitar strings. How I wish the whole sem will be like this. 

This kind of feeling should last forever.

Will blog more this weekend. We're gonna experiment with the new rice cooker now. Woohoo!

Back to Real Life

I ain't gonna pack my things till it's 12am.

Just kidding. Actually I've started packing a few nights ago but I kinda got bored with it, so now if there's a hidden camera in the room, you can actually see how disastrous the mess is - especially when I fail to figure out what to bring and what not to bring (yup, the usual sentence used over and over again).

I also have this "Back to Akasia - The Ultimate Checklist" to ensure that I'll not forget to bring my hairbrush like before.

And I've done my research on "how to bring a guitar on an airplane" just in case something bad happens. 

Now that there's a few hours left here, I'm starting to think about my future in Akasia. 

No more sleeping like how I always sleep here. No more guitar-ing all day. No more perfectly-cooked vegetables (ALM people will understand) and awesome food. 

...but there's one good thing..

No more forever-alone moments.

Home is awesome, but Akasia is also not bad at all when there are a lot of friends around you. 

...and CA
...and the basketball court next to my block..
...and the..and the...well let's just face the new sem and figure out the rest of the good things later.

Ace ALL the topic tests and finals.
Eat ALL the food in al-awwal's menu.
Buy ALL the biscuits in Mydin.

Starting a new chapter tomorrow...let the journey begin~
