发神经

Today, one of our tutors 发神经. She scolded in class "Can you guys please shut up! Do you understand Inggeris? Do you know what is the meaning of shut up?".

How rude! Her conduct speaks of her character.

Goes to show the Limkokwing spirit. Awesome!

That was a pretty pre-menstrual thing to do. Not "Keep quiet!" or "Lower your voices!", but SHUT UP. Aha I like I like. Wish I had recorded that down so I could upload it to Youtube.


Uni life sucks to the max for me. Getting penalised for not having enough money to go for a 4 days 3 nights, RM1.3k site visit is a first for me. 0 marks for some subjects. Sweet.

I miss my boyfriend real badly and yet its only Monday. 4 more days to go before I can get a glimpse of his adorable face :(

Sad, sad Stephanie.


Oh, and by the way, Sanctum is very gory. If I knew what it'd be like I'd never opt to watch that movie. It gives me nightmares. Everyone dies in the end except for the main character. So its like watching them die one by one. The entire movie is about waiting for them to die and seeing who survives till the end. And their deaths get more and more disgusting. The death by hair scene was so revolting that I could not bring myself to watch it.

DEFINITELY NOT MY CUP OF TEA.


No Strings Attached is a much better movie. Grisly movies just can't beat romance. Hmm, I'd say that romance wins over repugnant movies hands down...each time!

Study break

I'm feeling very under-prepared for tomorrow's quiz.


Am only halfway through my last minute studying. Actually I'm feeling quite optimistic about my progress (but not the result, mind you). I can get through the quiz syllabus by tonight and reinforce my grasp of the topics tested tomorrow.


Its just 10 questions. With tips. So I should do well, right?

But no, you need to sketch diagrams, label them and well, its just not as simple as it sounds. I never knew that roofs had so much to them.

Ridge-valley rafter-hip rafter-eaves-verge-common rafters-Jack rafters-gable end.

It probably sounds like nonsense to your ears but they are essential for my passing tomorrow's quiz! So there.


Remind me again why I chose to pursue this course >.<

Okay, I just remembered this one tiny detail I left out.

OUR SITE VISIT TODAY WAS CANCELLED!!!


I'd sorta anticipated it already, seeing that Limkokwing University has an excellent track record of failing to deliver its promises. Everything sounds better that it seems, that I've learned in 3 months of studying there.


But really, notifying us one day prior to the supposed site visit?? That is downright absurd and unreasonable.


Its position as a higher education institution is preposterous, seeing that it does not even hold on to any virtuous principles and its primary insider motto (or how I came to fathom it) is "earn more money--it does not matter through what means the money is obtained from".

Better not screw up this time.

I have my final project and a quiz coming up soon.

I'm making a castle and glass slipper for my Cinderella-titled project. The sad, gloomy feeling does emote well. I am very pleased with the effect. And before you question my choice of emotions for my sculpture, let me assure you that I have my reasons :)

I need to work harder for this coming quiz. I did average (okay, slightly above average as there were so many failures) in my previous one and even though many of my classmates failed to perform its no reason to not strive harder. Its unbelievable really, that some students can score 0%. It makes me wonder where their minds wander during lectures.


Last Friday I went out for a movie date with Dearie :D

I do so love outings like that! We watched Detective Dee, which was really interesting and action-packed. But I couldn't stand those close-up burning humans scene. Those were stomach turning. Not to mention that I had a slight problem catching up with the movie because my Cantonese is pretty poor. I know enough to order food, but should I be asked to converse in that dialect, I'll pitch up a white flag.


On a different note, I read a few books of late. One of which is entitled Forever, by Judy Blume. I just find the ending devastating. But it is themed around the fact that life holds no promises, and that someday, we all have to face reality that most of the time, fairy tales do not exist.

If you're interested to read it, here's the download link.


我好了 and 绿袖子 by 元若蓝 tops my current songlist.


That's it for now!
