stress-free

whoopsies, i've been bad! i've abandoned my good ol' loyal companion, Sel's Story!

well well, last saturday was Psychology Colloquim. something that i used to dread cos during Winnie's time had to attend at least four hrs of presentation, so colloquim day is always super long and super exhausting

this year, maybe its bcos im a Year 2 student, or bcos Ms Winnie no longer organize Colloquim, i dun have any compulsory attendance at all! whoopie!!! only got ONE presentation to do, which did not contribute to any part of my grades. malas la wanna post pics...check it out in Natalie's or Mel's blog. there are Poster defense pics there too.

for non-psych readers, at the end of every semester Dept of Psychology organizes this formal event where Psych students present the research projects they worked on during the semester. some lecturers require students to present on poster form, hence Poster Defense Day, and some lecturers require students to present orally with PowerPoint slides, which is Colloquim Day. for newbies like Year 1 students, they're still taking introductory courses, i.e. they dont run any research projects yet, so they're usually made compulsory to sit in and attend their seniors' presentation. of cos mar...if dun make compulsory u think they'll come all the way to college on a Sat to listen to boring presentations? ><

so anyway, did one presentation, received comment from Dr Reyes which made me so darn proud of our work, and raised my hope on winning the best presentation, but mana tahu habuk pun takdah. aihs...next year bah...

then monday submitted my two last assignments! whoopie!!! entire body felt lighter by 5kg! both shoulder felt immediate flexibility and zero tension!!! and of cos...celebrate by....GOING SHOPPING!!! ^o^ went to Mid Valley with Mel, Nat, Dan and Alex. we went straight to Guitar Collection to find my bro, Ervin. he's working there part time this school holiday. thought wanna ajak him makan lunch with us, but he said gotta jaga kedai. so 5 of us lenggang around...slowly walk...slowly window shop...slowly slowly slowly.... OMG such big difference with the past few weeks where my heart didnt get to stop pumping fast except when i sleep @_@

i went shopping for a formal shirt for Darling. he went to Vietnam for business trip today, so i wanna get him a brand new shirt to wear when seeing customer. gotta look all smart and handsome when meeting new potential clients mar...although he can charm any people randomly, first impression still counts. i bought a light yellow John Masters shirt, and happily wrap it up and gave him that night. ooh~ love it when i surprise him!!!

but Darling said shirt was too big, so yesterday went back to MV to change size. found out that that design got no small size, so gotta choose other designs lor. though price cost more, but as long as darling likes it, thats all that matters ^o^ next 2 weeks gotta "ngai min bao" (suffer with bread) also i dun mind...

yesterday i went to darling's place after changing the size. the whole house was busy packing cos entire family went to Vietnam. i helped darling translate his speech into chinese. we're both "pun tong sui" (half bucket full of water) in chinese, but i think im a less greener banana compared to him =P ok la, after he finishes his mandarin course i'll definitely need to take back these words. kekeke. i also helped him bind some books to be given to customers, and bought him cookies in case he's hungry, gave him lip balm and hand lotion in case lips or skin peel in case China's winter wind too harsh (he'll be going to China after Vietnam)

then at night we went for dinner in Bandar Puteri Puchong. we had Shabu Shabu! first time trying it...kekeek....it means Japanese Steamboat, and really, the name made everything sounds fanciful when we literally ate the same thing as typical, normal steamboat. well well, taste good though! steaming is healthy..i like i like! wanna try shabu shabu in other place with darling!!!

anyway, dear flew off this morning. yet again felt that feeling of pain and abandonment when he called minutes before taking off. i still remember how much pain i felt when he first went overseas...really really felt like he left me. but by now, more used to his frequent flying ady, so i feel more worried over his safety and health

oh ya oh ya, tmr last day of class for this semester!!! oh wait, class is canceled! only got "shooting" sessions by lecturers of 2 subjects. we have "oral defense" which means my group gotta sit in a meeting room with lectuers and their tutors, and they'll be shooting us question on our project while we try to show defend our topic. i'll come out feeling either super proud of my work, or super disappointed by the cruelness my lecturer can get...

wokie dokie, wanna go tarpau dinner now. see you~
