HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!
I know I'm late...but whatever, haven't been blogging.
Sigh.. I just want to sigh .. alot!
Sigh, another year has gone and pass and here comes the new year..
Don't even know what I've achieved in 2008, don't think there's many.
I don't noe why this time around, the realisation that it's a new year again has hit me harder than the past few years. Maybe it's cause I turn 21 this year, gahhh, adulthood. It keeps saying "wake up, girl, WAKE UPPP! do something about ur life, something useful perhaps".
Well, my thoughts about this year:
1) Gotten my driving license. Which is a long story. Cause I actually failed the Msian bukit test for the first time and had to to go to the HEAD officer to beg for another try coz I'll be leaving to Aust in the beginning of the year. Lucky I passed the 2nd time. thank god! Ok, I know many of you have felt this already, but I do feel that being able to drive is convenient. very, in my case, indeed.
2) Uni social life become a bit more enriched 'cause I made a sudden spontaneous decision to sign up for IESS in one of their free lunches. And made new friends, not just a few, but a WHOLE bunch. And went on to run for one of the posts in their general election and yay, made it as a welfare officer. With that, I'm part of a committee that's been organising ski trips, poker nights, free bbqs, etc.
3) On the other side, uni studies life has been disappointing. Sigh. Very very depressing. I totally admit that I haven't been putting enough effort in this area of my life. Which is sad. Coz it's the one thing that I'm doing full-time(generally). Like what's my occupation? student right? So, being a student means u study all the time, I assume. So why didn't I? ARgh.. procrastination and laziness.
4) Could not find a job still. Sigh.. I have to try harder. I've said this a million times. But yea.. still gonna have to try. Went for a trial but didn't get the job coz an idiot who can make coffee (quite a sought-after skill coz they serve coffee made using a coffee machine) had an extra skill over me. Bastard. So, anyway, went for an interview with Nando's and didn't hear a thing after that. Others didn't even call. Actually now, I would like to go for an internship in some engineering firm.. then I would be able to at least gain some in-sight experience in the workforce, doesn't matter if the pay is shitty or what. Everyone's doing internship this holiday, so jealous!
5) Saw snow and went skiing for the first time. That was at least a fun part of life last year at least. And not to mention the camp as well. Slept in a tent and had a campfire, hehee, so traditional.
6) Drifted apart with some friends here in Melb whom I used to be close with during college years. Oh well, I blame it on the fact that everyone's too busy and we're doing different courses.
7) Bonded very happily with u guys in Brunei. hehe, really happy to be able to spend quite a lot of time with u all. Great memories formed! sounds so cheesy but yea...:P
8) Finally found a phone that I like enough to sign up for. yay.. i'm so choosy, bleh.
9) Wanted brown hair, had brown hair, then hated it coz of the ugly black roots growing out (had half black half brown hair) and now I'm back to the good ol' black. Kinda vowed never to dye my hair again. Sick of the routine of having to re-dye again and again. Gone are the dyed-hair days.
10) Don't know what other stuffs I've done last year.
Ok, time for some resolutions
- Study hard hard had
- Spend less less less esp on shopping.
- Be more efficient and manage time properly. Means don't slack, do things on time and not in a hurry and eventually turn out late.
Now that I'm back in Melbourne, I feel weird. Like back to the uni again. Back to shitty study life again. No more fun and games, time to get more serious on things. No more waking up anytime I like, going out anytime I like, having spontaneous plans, going online that often esp for Facebook. Was cleaning the apartment yesterday. Unpacking things. Storing things away to respective places. Had classes yesterday and today. Boring. Back to washing dishes, thinking of what to cook daily, grocery shopping, cleaning, studying, WALKING. Soon enough, there's gonna be assignments again, damn it. argh.
I've lost my love for movies/music I think. I dunno.. I used to be very passionate about them. Like I really really had a movie goal of watching a long list of series/movies that I've downloaded and even brought them back to Brunei. But in the end, I didn't even watch 1/4 of them. And I used to take some time, sit down and listen to songs, esp new ones, but now I don't even bother keeping up with albums that came out every now and then recently. I just listen to them if I do otherwise I don't care. In the past, I can't miss any of them. Gotta listen to them. sigh.
Next up on my to-do list is to clean 'My Computer'. Have to get all my crap out of it if I'm getting a new laptop. Want to get the HP pavillion one, I think it's dv4. And have to give this laptop to my sis. And I have very little space on my external hard disk drive.. ahh.. so I have to do the traditional burning them out onto blank DVDs... the torture. So much to burn, from pictures to music to movies to documents. It's gonna be so tedious.
I miss Brunei, I miss driving, I miss family + friends.
