Happy (Belated) Batch Bday!

It seems that nobody mentioned on their blogs about the KMYS 2001-2003 Batch Birthday on the 15th of May. I was supposed to have an entry about it, thought about it on the 13th but decided to wait until the day itself to write up the entry. Ended up forgetting all about it until a few days ago because of all the exams but since nobodys mentioning it anywhere, I decided to still put up an entry to remind you guys who have forgotten.

No long entry, I'm studying at the moment for a paper tomorrow afternoon and just taking my break for a while. Started 30 hours before the exam as usual. So, anyway,

HAPPY BATCH BIRTHDAY!

The Cultural Performance in the first few weeks of the batch's life

The 1st Batch Anniversary cake. Can't believe its already been 5 years and most of you are going back for good this summer.

P.S: Today, (21st May) is the first day I've met Aiza and all other Architecture student, we met by the piano in the Great Hall to discuss the subjects that we should take for the A-Levels. Maybe we already seen each other earlier, but this was the first time we talked. So, Happy Friendship Day Aiza and all others.

More time! more time!

I just learned the fact that you NEED to study earlier before an exam. Not just 30 hours before your paper which is just plain stupid. And it is down to less than 20 hours now. But one more thing I learned: my unattended module which I missed every other Thursday can be learned by myself, by the aid of lecture notes downloaded from the faculty website, and past year papers. And textbooks. Im not revising, Im learning from the very beginning.

I just wish I have more time. Maybe if I could stop time? I could be watching movies, tv series or read Wikipedia (I blame you Ipe for introducing me to wiki, I just cant get enough of it) or just sitting there on my bed doing nothing at this moment in time. I mean looong moment when time stops. Which can be argued, if I could stop time I would be like "Alah kalut apa study...lepak luuu esok start ar study...time kan tak jalan ni." Come tomorrow, and I still havent studied, yet another day extends. Another after another after another. and its still Tuesday the 16th. Which, when I come to think of it, I cannot afford to, having in mind that I have 4 more years to come here in the UK. I cant extend more of that. Thats enough.

Okay lemme see those lecture notes again...

Gotta get me one of these

Nokia 8800. It just have the features of a nokia 6230i (without the memory card slot), not much of up-to-date features, but it has the image of elegance and excellence. This might be why the expression "dont judge a book by its cover" came up. ceh. And its cost a bunch as well. Not that it cost that much for Nokia to make it, its just that Nokia controls its pricing for it to be seen as a luxury phone, and only could be afforded by rich people. Not that im rich, but if i could get it for free on a contract, and it is a nice phone, why not get it? anyway im up for an upgrade next week and THIS is the one I have in mind. Had all the feature phone in the past, dont really use all its functions, so now im going back to what a phone was: a phone.

hehe. but thats not all. my other contract is also up for an upgrade. actually it was a week ago but i'll wait until if i could get the 8800 first, then i'll decide which phone i want with the other contract. maybe a sony ericsson W800i again coz the supposedly newer W810i sucks big time. or maybe the new Motorola RAZR V3im with iTunes. we'll see la how.

hoi im supposed to be studying! hahahah esok tghari exammm..pk pasal phone pulak. ceeehhh

Exams

Hey..as most of you might have known, its exams time! Gonna start my first one on Monday, fortunately most of my papers (four in all) are at 1.30pm except one, the last one on 30th of May at 9am. It doesn't seem much, but considering i just started studying gonna really make me crazy. Well, not that crazy. But I also have the work to bear (BnQ work) and the finalizing of my architectural studio portfolio to do. So, a busy month. Maybe not a lot of updates but most of the time i'll be here in my desk in front of the computer, so who knows if i actually got some ideas to blog about? We'll see. Here is my exams timetable:

15 May 1.30pm - Management & Decision Making

17 May 1.30pm - Building Services Engineering

22 May 1.30pm - Planning Theory & Philosophy

30 May 9.00am - Theories of Architecture

Well, again, not much, definately not as stressful as mona's, but hey, I missed a lot of classes this year so I'll have to make up for those this time of the year. From square one that is. Buona Fortuna.

Aku mau yang ini

Hah atoy...this one would do it for me...first car, family car, last car. All works! Damnnnn. Look at the rims. Kalau bawak keta tu kat UK nih sebulan lingkup la rim tu..asyik bantai kerb jalan je hahahah. I got another photo of a more souped up metallic blue one in a magazine which made my eyes tears (literally, tanya pet he was there) when I first saw it but I cant find the magazine at the moment. Let me put it up later if I finds it.

Okay, which one? Any opinion? (updated)

Just ordered the Coach handbag from Yunni as hantaran for my wedding in August. Now time for mine. I was wondering whether to get a watch now or should I wait till I get back to Malaysia in June. There would be some nice selection of watches in Malaysia, and the prices are quite competitive and I could actually try them on before buying them. But at the moment I got a specific watch in mind, and I'm worried I wouldnt get the same one in Malaysia. Its this Tissot Trend Dress TXL Chrono, in black leather strap with black face or brown strap with white face. If u read my blog earlier, you'd realise I only bought leather strap watches. The reason for this is I cant wear steel wristwatches, its just too painful. Hehe not that I'm allegic to steel or anything, I just got hairy wrists and it would get stuck between the watch parts (is it too much information I'm telling you guys?). Its USD$400 but I can actually get them for as low as $288 for the black one or $328 for the white (without shipping from the US). I thought about it a while ago when I was getting my Victorinox watch and I was more inclided to go for the white-faced one with the brown strap, coz it really looks more professional and elegant. But I admit the black one looks sleekier. Its a tough choice, only if I could get my hand on them to compare...

damn its hard to upload pics on the blogger website nowadays. Lemme just publish this first before it dissapear, wasting my time and energy trying to update the site.

At last got them uploaded with much hassle. Damn bugger. Okay, back to the issue, what do you think? Any second opinion? Or, should I say sixth, or seventh opinion? hehe

Update: I think I've made my mind on the watch. Its gonna be the brown-white one. Found on the net that it was recomended by askmen.com:

The Trendy Casual Watch

"If you're looking to make a statement, look no further. Tissot engineered this watch for the fashion-oriented urbanite with a leading and innovative personality. Being a great icebreaker, it's the perfect "going out" watch. Wear it with jeans and your other trendy threads."

And I like the strap as well. Its the kind of a leather strap with a closed buckle at the back type. Really cool.

I wonder how such a small thing could really amuse me. If I were back in Malaysia and not come here, I dont think I would ever lay my hands on these babies. Not anywhere soon anyway. =p
