Darkness.

"I couldn't see worth a damn either. But I just kept driving forward, hoping for the best." - Marshal's dad in HIMYM. :) That's kinda like my life. Don't know what's gonna happen, don't know what my future will become. But. Guess there's no where much to go but forward huh. :)

Last Words.

Hellooo. Just watched an episode of HIMYM, the one where Marshal's dad dies. Super sad man. I cried!!!!! (No surprise there) But anywho. It's just the thought of "last words". It's not that I don't know this already, it was just a really good reminder. I used to be so paranoid. So afraid. I would constantly be sending prayers to God to ask Him to have mercy on my family, that He won't take them away so soon. Like, I'll get stressed so suddenly at the thought of not having them around at all, that I'll say like 5 prayers at once. When I was in Dublin, I would get so upset because I don't talk to my parents regularly, felt out of touch with my family. Then I'll be like, you know, what if what if what ifffffffff I hadn't spoken to them for like a week and God takes them away? Omg. That scares me so much so much I can't even explain the fear gripping my heart. So yea. :) Tell people you love them if you do. Be honest, be sincere, be kind to people. No regrets!!! Appreciate your family! :D :D And make sure they know you appreciate them! 

Anywho. On a totally unrelated note. Just thought I should let you know my love for Jeremy Lin. Hahahaha. Love him because he's Asian and because he seems to have a good heart, he's really humble and he loves God too! Hahaha. Omg. I'm so silly. As if I know the dude. But anywaaaaay. It's his youtube videos bah. So silly and then he puts a bible verse at the end and then you realise he's actually kinda great. Whaaaaaaaaaaaart am I even saying! -.- But yea haha go watch and see for yourself!! He's so cute ohhhhhhhhhhhh.  



Dear me, how are you going to be 20?

Hold It Tight!

Hello!!! :D I've spent so much money this week!!!! My heart is bleeding! A pint bottle of Bulmers Cider, a chicken wrap for lunch, Captain America's for dinner with flatmates and Castlewhite people, snacks at Tesco (SO UNNECESSARY!), dinner at Wylam with coursemates (Jerome's bday dinner!). T____T 

Oh well. The dinner at Wylam was fun! Jerome, Adib, Yong, Sam, Sunil, Narina, Andrea, Jesse, Kaumal, Nadine and Ozma were there. Kaumal is from Cork (she's Pakistani I think) and she's super nice! It was a really nice dinner filled with laughter I guess. Wylam is a Chinese restaurant btw. It was so expensive though. I had king prawns with hot garlic sauce, and that comes with boiled rice, and that was €15.80. Craziness! The food was not amazing, but it was pretty good. I should stop going for prawns, love them so much, but I just hate that it just comes with prawns only. We sang happy birthday to Jerome even though we didn't have a cake or anything. It was really awkward cuz way after that, while everyone was having their own conversations, a really cheesy recording of "happy birthday" started playing. And everyone at our table were like "awwwww~" and I really thought that the people at the restaurant put it on after they found out it was Jerome's bday when we sang him the song, that they put it on for HIM. Then after a second, we kinda realised that, wait, it could be for some other table. And we started laughing. Then one of the waitresses came out with a tiny cake and candle on it and walked past us over to the other table with three girls. OHMYGOSHHH. We all laughed. so. hard. man! It was absolutely hilarioussssssss. Oh and we found out that Dr. Markos (one of our physiology lecturers) is most probably married to Dr. Ruane? Also one of our physiology lecturers. That's... awkward. *shrug shoulder*. And Yong was saying that, during the exam time before winter break, she was so bored of studying that she googled our lecturers. And "did you know that *pause, with me thinking she's going to say something really interesting* Dr. Healy, was really fat before?" HAHAHAHA. WHUT. She's just so blunt. It's was just really funny. 

ANYWAY. At the dinner we found out that Yong got 90 on her spot exam, the one I got 64 on. UGHHHHH. I know, it's only 5%. I'm not too upset about my mark (prob said this before) but it's just upsetting that EVERYONE ELSE did better than I did except for like 9 other people. That's pretty depressing. Haha. But then. I really didn't know much about what I was doing. But still I thought I was pretty prepared for that. :/ oh wellzzz. So yea. I really need to get a hold of myself man. I haven't been doing much studying at all!!! Getting a bit worried. Our first MCQ, the one that is the first domino that falls, bringing along with it a waveeeeeee of many many... many others, is two and a half weeks away. When that first MCQ hits, oh gosh. The rest of the tests (as well as a big exam in March too) will just keep on coming a week or two after the previous one. We're gonna be swamped! So yea. I should really get on top of things now while I still have breathing room. Should really go to the library more and you know, take control of my life!!! And get a good hold on studies. Etc etc etc pep talk. Ok. Tmr I'm going for lunch in the city (money money money~~~) with seniors. :D Hope it's fun! Sleepy!! 

I actually just watched KONY 2012 today. :/ It actually made me really sad. Just about how unfortunate some people are. Once again, feeling so blessed. And feeling that it's so weird how we can be living in such luxury when there are people out there who are living like that. Sometimes I think it's so hard for us to make revolutionary changes because we're too comfortable with our lives. Like the corruption and stuff that goes on in Malaysia. We all know it. We joke about it. We shake our heads at it. But we don't do anything to change it. Bersih was great, but time moves on relentlessly as I always say. If you don't keep spreading it, things get old, any news becomes old news. So that's why in my opinion, KONY was a great achievement because they gave it a deadline. 2012. They knew that people will move on and forget the feelings they felt while hearing the news about Kony. They really did everything in a remarkable way. Hats off to them. But I'll watch the other videos about them saying that the video was not fair in the sense it fed people the wrong ideas etc. But still. So hard to find people these days who get up and actually take action and try and change things. :)   

OH YEA!!! Now that it's past midnight, it's the 1st of Feb! BIRTHDAY MONTH! Haha. But the point is, a month of this new year has already gone by. It's been so quick!!!! Scary how time flies :O People!! Make time go slower for you by spending it wisely and making the most out of it yo!!!! But anyway. This begs the question: what have you achieved in that one month? Have you grown up in any way? What have you learnt? You know? It feels like a month has gone by. I keep reminding myself of my resolution. But... have I really achieved anything? Turning 20 in 12 days yo. Sigh. I should sleep. Gnite!! :D

Compare~!

OH NO! hahaha. I think I've mentioned this before. But honestly, I was rereading the last paragraph of my last post and. I really don't know how I'm supposed to turn 20 and act 20. *shrugs shoulders* How does one grow up? How does one shed the skin of childishness off and embrace adulthood? Haha. Adulthood seems pretty farfetched, I guess it's more like being a young adult. :/ But yea. Maybe I'll grow out of it? Maybe I won't. We'll see. 

Yesterday was great!!! Was having lunch with Sam in the only dim sum restaurant in Cork, Yuan Ming Yuan, when Yong (KL girl) and her bf visiting from Nottingham came as well. SO FUNNY. It was kinda fun cuz we sometimes had conversations with Yong though she was sitting at the other table. And Yong was facing me, whilst Sam had her back to her. So it was awkward but funny when we caught each other's eyes. Pretty fun. Then the dinner. We went to Istanbul Turkish Kebab House. It was me, Sam, Narina, Andrea, Sunil, Jasyot (Jesse), Pouya (Iranian but from London) and Lucas. It was really fun! Love talking to Pouya cuz it's just that funny conversation with loads of sarcasm and jokes. After dinner, we even went to Captain America's for dessert. I had the strawberry cheese cake. But it wasn't really cheesy so it was kinda disappointing. But all in all, it really was a fun night. :D Looking forward to more! 

Volleyball today was really really. Bad. I didn't play very well, made a few mistakes, but then it got worse because my teammate kinda got angry (he's a good player, so he got frustrated and kinda gave up) which made me kinda give up as well. And I got kinda annoyed at the wasted opportunities too. That's not a good thing. Cuz I was frowning and stuff. :/ Sigh. Kinda sad as well because we played with 4 girls and 2 guys instead of 3 and 3, because one guy didn't come. And two of the other girls were not very good. Don't really wanna continue playing in the match because it's not fun and kinda a waste of timem because I should study. But I know I will because I made a commitment. 

BUT ANYWHO. My mum took pictures of her diary entry she wrote when she flew back from Cork after me settling in here. It was pretty touching. Sad. She wrote "I've said many a time, uni is the best of God's gift. Take it and spend it wholeheartedly." She always said that uni is the best time of your life. For me it doesn't feel that amazing, I guess I feel kinda indifferent about it. Trying to keep my head above the self-pity waters at times. :) Skyped my mum and dad today. Kinda. They were having dinner, yummy fooddddd. And I could hear the dogs barking and barking. It was kinda annoying. But how I would love to be there under the whooshing fan, with the noisy noisy dogs, and the yummy oily food, and my mum always eating more even tho she said she's done, and my dad putting on some music after dinner. Hahaha. It's ok. Soon. :D :D 

The weather is. So. Bad. now. Sure it's not as cold as the rest of Ireland and the UK, but it just keeps raining! And since early afternoon, the wind has been crazy. As in, I've been listening to it whooshing really loudly again and again. Till now. Ugh.

Oh yea. Was youtubing and not studying (I NEED TO STUDY!) and came across this song. 



"Compare, where are you are and where you wanna be and you'll get, no where." ;)

Change? What do you mean by "change"?

HEYA! So. Very quickly now! I have not studied much. And the work load just keeppppppps piling up and up and up so high, and the days of all the MCQ tests and continuous assessments and exams are just getting closer. SIGH FACE. I sleep too much. And spend the rest of the time eating/making stuff to eat. And the rest of the rest of the time with my bff, the internet. hahaha. 

Anyway. Watched Les Miserable just now in the cinema with Sam, Andrea, and Narina!!! I actually really enjoyed the movie!! :D It was kinda slow, in the sense that (SPOILER ALERT, well, not really) the whole movie was in song, which I did not expect at all! But. I think, it just really spoke to me. The hardships, the bleak, harsh fact that you can't do anything more to survive but to throw your pride away. "Don't they know that they're making love to someone who's already dead" or something like that. WOAH. Haha. I didn't understand some of it, cuz it's all in song and there aren't any lyrics and some times I didn't catch the words so I'm like. What? But I really enjoyed the movie. Cried. 

Which reminds me that I really need to sleep!!!!!! Cuz crying dries my eyes and makes me tired so I need extra sleep to stay alive the next day. And tmr I needa get up early for art gallery tutorial thing UGH and then dim sum for lunch with Sam (YAY) and then there's dinner with coursemates too. bleshveiwoeuvijom. So hopefully I'll get a nap in the middle of the day somewhere. 

And Sat is the first day of the mixed league volleyball thingy!!! It's weird, the games I've played here have all been mixed league. Means half girls half guys. Whuttt. It's kinda fun cuz means you get pro spikers (dudes are pro spikers) but then scary cuz you might be against super pro dudes who spike to kill and break your nose. Haha. It's nothing big. You just sign up for it, get put into a random team and it could suck really badly if your teammates aren't that good. Sigh. I just really hope it'll be something worth my time you know? Cuz this goes on for 5 Saturdays I think. And hopefully. It'll be worth playing. And that I'm not with a team that doesn't put up a fight. And I'll just stand in the court and be bored. Hope for fun!!! 

ANYWAY. The reason I really wanted to blog was cuz. Clif sent me a whatsapp pic of this letter I wrote him AGES AGO. OMGGGGG. I can't even remember writing it!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's. Absolutely. just omg so funnnyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. It was when we were finishing primary 6, and I think I gave him a Christmas present (if I remember correctly, I got him basketball jerseys from Petaling Street cuz he loved playing ball then). And I was saying in the letter, that we're becoming teenagers and all that. HAHAHAHAHA. This is actually a bit embarrassing. But anywho. It just struck me how me the letter was. I'm still the same oh. Really. The fact that I wrote a letter because I love hearing myself talk. Haha. Kinda true. But I mean, I love putting the cherry on top of a gift with a letter because it makes it more personal and you can say all the corny mushy feelings stuff. And then, the fact that I gave him a present of something he liked. And I think I remember debating with myself whether I should get him that because it was pretty pricey. But I got it anyway because I felt, and still feel, that the price doesn't really matter if it's something you know the person will like. (hah, I don't even know if he still has them). But yea. And then. In the letter, I also said "Don't replace me!". HAHAHA. OMGGG or as Denise says, ERMAHGERD, I say that ALL THE TIME now to Denise or Jason or Steph or whoever. I'll be like, don't replace me, don't forget me etc etc etc cuz I'm overly attached like that. HAHA. I just really can't believe that I was TWELVE, almost eight years ago, and it was so me. Or rather, the fact that I haven't changed much at all. Overly attached since birth man. It just struck me how my personality probably hasn't changed much over the years, that it was formed since ages ago though I didn't even realise it. Seriously, when did I become the me that I kinda am today? It really made me drop my jaw. So weird!

But anywho. I should sleep. I'll rethink this issue tmr when my thoughts are more organised. I just really need some sleep now. Ugh. I normally can't function with 8 hours of sleep. I'm gonna get less than that tonight, with dry eyes, don't know how I'll survive. Oooh. Btw. I think the girl, Eponine (sounded like Ebony) in the movie, is really really pretty la. :D :D And I think I'm probably gonna end up like her. Loves the dude but the dude loves this other girl and you help him get her etc etc. (Kinda like the video Unfold by Jinnyboy!!) and then (SPOILER ALERT) you die to save him. HAHAHA dramatic much? I THINK NOT! 

Peace out dudez!
