Fly Me To the Moon

HELLO people! Guess who's back? :D

Yes yes. Just wanted to share something with you lots. Something that I came across and almost forgot until I visited yingling's old blog. :p Something that she made before she left for the UK after year 2005.
::Click Me::
We love you, Ling Ling! <3

Dateline for courseworks are coming up and here I am trying to think of something to blog about. Oh I know. I shall talk bout them effing fire alarms that kept going off at ungodly hours of the day/night for the whole of 2 weeks. Two at 12am, One at 3am, One at 7.30am, One at 10pm.. etc... Either some low life bastards tripped the alarm on purpose or the Uni just needs to fork out some money to replace the current ones, which I assumed to be faulty.

So, we started on Environmental Technology class today. Introduction was good. But what comes after was just too boring to listen to, i.e struggled to stay awake during class. Fortunately, he ended it half an hour earlier. Yay! :)

As for yesterday, my friend (Yee You) and I went to help out the Japanese Society to collect funds for the Britist Red Cross: Japan Disaster Relief. At first, it was pretty embarrassing to stand in the city centre, outside the busy mall and shout out to the crowd bout the fundraising event, then we got used to it and it felt good when people actually donated after hearing us out. And since there wasn't any Red Cross Voluntary vest left, I had to pin up a piece of white cloth with a painted red cross on my front and assist those with the fund-collecting buckets. It wasn't surprising when people came up to me and asked if this fundraising event is genuine, i.e all money collected going to Red Cross. -_- Oh! And then this weird dude came up to us and started a conversation:

Dude: Where are you from?
Us: Malaysia and Hong Kong.
Dude: Are you Japan's neighbour?
Us: Not really.
Dude: Is Japan bad?
Us: (HUH?!) Uhm.. Yeah its pretty bad right now.
Dude: Really?? O_O Japan is a bad neighbour?!?!
Us: OHH NONO! We meant Japan is in a pretty bad situation right now. Not a bad neighbour. It is a very nice country. :D
Dude: Right.

And he left, saying that he wants to get change from somewhere so he could donate and we didn't see him again. Weird much?? Overall, I think we did a pretty good job cause we practically finished a whole roll of stickers (which were given when one donates). Teehee!

Alright. Tuesday was my lab day! Lab started at 11am and I only got out of bed at 10.30am. :D Genius. Rushed like mad as usual. Very bad habit of mine and I left my phone in the room. :( Okay. We had to conduct an experiment on the LARGE distillation column. FML. So we had to put on the safety helmet, rubber gloves and lab goggles. How professional. :p What we did was just: Set reflux ratio, Wait, Record Temperature, Collect Distillate, Wait and repeat again. Boring. I know. And I have another lab session tomorrow. Yay me. And you know what I realised? People keep telling me that I look tired/sleepy since secondary school. Even now in Uni, my professor asked if I was tired after my lab session on Tuesday. Its the dark circles I tell you. Must rid of them dreadful dark circles!! >:(




OHH btw Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Can't keep my eyelids open any longer. Later peeps.

Remember my mini-tornado experience outside Alor Star of Kedah? This is a bigger one in Perlis, which is Kedah's neighbour. Enjoy.

Angry Toast Revived.

Hey peeps. I know I haven't been blogging and I know that some of you guys out there gave up reading. Well good news. I'm BACK. :)

So, half of the University of Manchester students are on reading week break. Yes, HALF. Sorry to Civil, Mech, Electrical Eng and medic students or anyone who has something to do with bio. Anyway, I'm one of them. :) Yay me! As usual, I haven't been studying/reading and half the week has already gone by. Some of you probably knew what I was doing for that half week. It's all about the Crime Scene Investigation. New York STYLE. Awesome, ain't it? Loved it to a point that I was inspired to be take up any course related to forensic science. Enough of that crap. Here's a lovely picture of CSI:NY, Season 1. :) Yes I'm starting season 1 and I have 2 more episodes till the end of the season.


Rough/Brief schedule for TODAY. Woke up at 12pm. Lunch at 1pm. Shower at 2pm. CSI time till Li Shan came over my place. And we left together for LINKIN PARK concert... :) OUR very first concert in Manchester. What a coincidence, cause the first concert in my life was also Linkin Park's and its been 7 years. Way too long. Anyway, we paid quite a bit for seating tickets. But its probably worth it because we didn't have to worry bout tall dudes/dudettes blocking our (mainly mine) view and we didn't have to strain our necks to face the stage. I would love to DRAW a picture of my view from where I was seating but.. I don't have my Wacom Graphire. :(

OVERALL: The concert was great. Li Shan's company was great. Those 2 made my night. :)

Ahh yes. 1 more thing. So everytime, without fail, after a concert, I would go back home and listen to the band's/artist's songs again. Won't you agree with me? Guess what? I'm going to be in my LP craze hopefully for 1 week?


LP still rocks, though I wasn't that keen on the slow songs being in their concerts. Just doesn't seem so LP-ish.


Later, dudes.

P.s. Oh yeah for those who didn't read my facebook status or tweet, someone in the hall freakin' set off the fire alarm when it was bloody raining outside. He/She deserves a "you big dummy" from me. Not serious enough to be sworn at by me. :) I'm being too nice. I know that too.

Day 5.

Worst feeling ever.


Going home is so close, yet so far.


2 more weeks and its Good Bye, Foreign Land and Hello, Home!




BigDummy.


P.s I made steamed egg with minced meat for dinner! Using the rice cooker. Bowl on the still-cooking rice, literally(cause I don't have the steam basket). And it turned out a success! So proud of myself. (:

Day 2.

I AM SO SLEEPY! NOT GOOD. So, keep myself occupied by blogging. :p

Hey peeps. Heard the fire alarm from another building. Just realised they're only testing it. DAMN.
Anyway, got back from a not-so-productive 2-hour study session in the library today. 

Lets see what are the papers left:
Mathematics
Chemical Reaction Engineering
Chemical Engineering Design
Thermodynamics
Transport Phenomena

4 more. DIE. So, today is Day 2 after my math paper. Day 1 was NOT a productive day at all. Wasted the entire day not studying and I have no idea where did all my time go. Woke up at 12pm, cook and eat till 3pm, what's next...? Thus, I am trying to compensate for yesterday's extra-laziness now. :( Not cool.

Speaking of cool, the temperature today has gone down compared to last week. My first(and probably the last) time wearing shorts in Manchester cause it was THAT warm last week. And I thought to myself, "Oh boy, if it's THAT warm this week, then the next week is gonna be much colder. Crap."

I want the sun NOW! Okay maybe not now, since I'm gonna stay in my room the whole day anyway. I want the sun TOMORROW!


Oh dear, I better get back to studying now. Later.

Can't wait to sleep in my own room.

Sneak peak of my study place.

That's uhm.. before the last A-Level exam. Excuse the untidiness. That is so not me. ;)

Anyway, Imma head to my friend's place(Weston accommodation) now. Not to slack but to STUDY!
Later.
