:)

Life has been pretty food these few days.
Everyday, go to class, eat, watch tv. The best part is I have no/minimal homework and reading, except for my physics :)

Today, after my class, I decided not to go to lab but went home instead to cook curry :)
So, went home at 12.30pm, finished cooking my curry by 1pm, indulge in my delicious meal while watching tv til 2pm. Then, I took a nap until 4.30pm~~~ I never had such a carefree day before during school year! I'm loving this semester!

Tonight, we had the first wine tasting session for my Wine Insights Class. We tasted 2 white and 6 red white. Since the theme is Famous Wine from Famous places, the instructors prepared many famous wines such as Bordeaux from France, Germany Riesling, and some other new famous wines from US, Australia. Though they are good wines, I found them quite hard to drink, maybe I am not that used to the tannins flavor in the wines.... Need more practice :P Out of the 8 wines, I like Riesling the most maybe it's a sweet white wine. I have sweet tooth :) The end of the tasting session, the instructor poured us our birth year wine, which is 1988 Bordeaux (fyi, 1988 is a good vintage year!) The 1988 Bordeaux was kind of different, tasted little like previous wine but contained more aged flavors.. That's all about my 1st wine tasting. Learned a lot today, and hopefully I can sharpen my wine tasting sense at the end of semester :)

crossroad of life

alright, i know 2 of our friends wrote this already....
but, what they're thinking is also what i've been pondering about for these few days.

yeah, i was certain that i wanna further my studies. Yet, these few days, I've been thinking a lot... Studies I shall further, yet, the question is now or later.

The heart is telling me to take a year off, go home, sit down and think thoroughly what I wanna do in the future. Then, only I should apply for grad schools. If this option is my choice, there is a high probability that I won't even bother to go to grad school after 1 yr of working.

The mind, only the other hand, says I should get it done asap, try to get my degree in 5 yrs, then go home for good, find a job and then, ..... If this is chosen, I might not pick the right path for my future...

Which shall be the road not taken?

bad *-*

从来都不觉得我是这种人....
可是我可能错了
本来约好要和学长和他女朋友吃饭的,
7pm,学长已经在楼外等我
可是就在最后一分钟知道另一班朋友也要去吃晚饭,
而他们正是去我最爱的sushi buffet,
而刚好他也会去,
就这样, 我爽约了...
我是疯了吗?

Argh!!!

Seriuosly, I hate school.... It's taking my life away from me. Assignments, quizzes, lab reports, presentations, papers... They are never ending!
It's Sunday night. But still, I haven't done all my works. Still haven't found any paper for the discussions tomorrow, haven't written report for my food processing class yet, and haven't finished reading the senseless physics text for the quiz tomorrow! Ah, what the heck!! I want my weekend back!!!
I figured out that I won't have any free time until Wednesday... But then, I'll have an assignment due on Friday :'( .... I wonder when I can spend my quality time with the ever handsome and cool Blue蓝正龙!
In conclusion, I hate school. And luckily, there are only 2 semesters left....

Adulthood

A junior's dad passed away 2 days ago. I was talking with my friends yesterday. We had no idea on how to console our friend who have lost her father... My friend said that back home, it's our parents who dealt with this issues, like giving condolences, donating money.... We're so inexperienced in doing all that, and it's kind of scary to deal with this...

Yet, what happened again proved a point --> we're adults now. There are people around us who get married, have babies, and sadly, their parents might have passed away. We're going into the world that our parents live in and there is no way to escape it.. So, it's time to grow up and need to learn how to deal with this "life" problems... (kinda scary but still....)

Have been listening to song by 丁噹 recently, especially like her 猜不透 coz I think that I have a characteristic similar to the guy....

*mad*

Angry, I'm angry, I'm angry with myself. Arghhhhhhhhhhh!

Sometimes, I wonder why is it so hard for me to control my temper. I almost got in fight with somebody for something that was not even their faults. Maybe, it's the feeling of not being valued, respected and the fact that I can so easily being replaced. But, luckily, I managed to get out of the room before I exploded. Of else, I would have put myself into a really really bad situation. But, I do hate myself for getting mad at the first place. It is just not a right attitude I should have. Now that I am 21, I should really grow up and stop acting like a kid...

So, I shall always remind myself of what happened today and not to do that same mistakes again.

REMEMBER!REMEMBER!REMEMBER!!
CONTROL! CONTROL! CONTROL!!

Though some might not appreciate my work and skill, I can still find a better world for myself somewhere! Malaysia boleh! Saya boleh!

猜不透

时而豪放,时而文静;
时而热情,时而冷漠;
时而乐观,时而悲观;
时而冲动,时而稳重;
时而积极,时而懒散;

双子座的双重病越来越严重了...
有时还真的搞不懂自己到底是怎么了.
为什么好好的友情我要把它推入悬崖?
是因为狂欢后需要的孤单?
是本来就该一个人呢?
还是我太保护自己了?

不懂是对是错...
可是我决定我还是暂时保持这样的距离吧
这样我才能好好的过我习惯的生活

暂时再见! :)

Yesterday, when I chilled out with friends, one of them said that I love to visit and not a stay-at-home girl. I think what he said is so true. I like outings no matter how far it is as long I'm out of my small cubical room. Especially now that I have limited time here in the States, I figured out that I had better spent my valuable time seeing and exploring the country. Who knows I might leave soon, so soon... Even if I was in Malaysia, I think I would do the same things. There are still many things that I have never gotten a chance to do in Malaysia, like going for a road trip with friends and families, clubbing in the city, shopping in the malls like I did here, and many more... Maybe, I'm not a stay-at-home girl after all!

p/s: Super excited for my end of year trip! ARE YOU, GIRLS???

labor day :)

So, it was a long Labor Day weekend, an awfully/awesomely long one....
Awful coz school just started 4 days ago and that is basically no homework or reading to do...
So, on Friday nite and the whole Saturday, what I did was listening to music and more music...

On the Saturday nite, JPA paid us a visit. We had nice food and small discussion sessions with 2 officers. The gathering was prolonged from 9pm till 10pm so I was unable to go anywhere after that (I was planning to go the City that nite)... I went home and spent the rest of the nite watching "Talledega Nigght". Actually, I just watched last winter at my auntie's place with my handsome cousin (you know who I mean :) It was fun to watch for the 1st time but not repeatedly... So, I cut the nite short and went to back before 12am....

The next day, woke up at 10.30am (quite early :) and catched 11.30am train to New York City. Went to Chinatown and had my hair cut. So, are you ready to see my new look??

JIANG! JIANG! JIANG....



Do you like it?? COZ I LOVE IT :D
I haven't had short hair since like I was in middle school. Really wanna try something different for my final year in Rutgers. Hopefully, my hair will stay straight and this hairstyle can be maintained :)

After the haircut, we walked around Chinatown. I bought a box of Durian flavored mooncakes. Mooncake festival is Oct 4th! Then, we went to the apartment to put our stuffs and then walked to 33rd to buy a baggage at Macy's and had tofu stew in the Korean Way. And then, the nites didn't end there.

So, today, woke up at 7.30am, catched 9am bus to New Brunswick. Went to friends' house for club meeting. I met an old senpai, whom I haven't met for a year. We did a lot of cleaning on the equipment and fooling around. It was a long day and I didn't come home until 9pm tonite. But, I do love to hang out with them so I also had lots of fun. Hopefully, we'll be able to do that again next time :)

X(

Boring! Boring! Boring!
Weekend in NB is boring! boring! boring!
Moreover, it's a 3-day weekend, super looooong weekend.
TV program is too bland and boring, and I am sick of Food Channel and Jon&Kate.
What I can do is to stalk someone in Facebook. But now that I have stalked enough, I really don't know what I should do....

Start to miss my weekend in Wooster, Ohio coz my supervisor would always bring me to somewhere... Especially miss the party nites where ppl basically danced their stress and butt off... I wanna dance! I wanna party! I wanna dance! I wanna party! I wanna be out of NB!

It's a super boring Friday nite....

I WANNA DANCE!!!!!!!

First week of my senior year

Huh! Yeah, I'm a senior now!! Hu! Hu! *Clap hand*

I took my GRE on the 1st day, which turned out pretty well. Satisfy with my score and not retaking it.
So, I hope it's an augury that I'll have a smooth senior year :)

But, all the Senior Year Syndrome manifested on the first week.
The syndrome includes lazy to get up from bed for morning classes, late for classes, lethargic and lack of concentration in classes, not motivated to study class materials... In short, just lazy.

Maybe because I just took the test, so felt like giving myself a break. Yet, the break won't be very long coz the prof will definitely get us moving quick with all those assignments and exams...

Before my break was cut short, I think I should enjoy it when I still can. So, New York, here I come!! I haven't gotten a chance to go there since I came back from Ohio. Need to go there to have my hair cut, do some shopping, eat some yummy chinese/korean food and visit a friend :)

Okie, gtg, have to sleep now so that I won't be late to class tomorrow morning.

p/s: In cloud nine these few days, partly of the exam, partly of someone who makes my day :)
Hope the happiness lasts forever!
