----------------------------pre (last) finals---------------------------------------------------

sooooooooooooooooooooooo yes! i felt useful on 17th.. :D volunteerin is a gud thing 2 do.. ^^ its a gud experience.... so wat i did was helpin JCCW 2 collect donations 4 peace winds america n american red cross... ^^ one thing i learnt is x judge a person by their physical appearance.. those who i thought might donate end up din do tat and those i din expect actly donated quite generously! not all.. but well.. some.. it's hard to convince peepz 2 donate at some point.. and esp d 1st time when we *joyce n me* were standin at d side there.. we did look kinda illegit.. LOL college students without any id, etc sdnly standing there askin 4 donations... if im in their shoes i wouldnt donate too... lol we did get.. yeah i will donate but not here --> change of strat --> jz give out flyers until we got the donation box, name tag and d red cross vest ^^

wat i did that day... collect donations, gv our flyers and run around uwa 2 send d box to and fro ^^it was tiring.. in a way.. *i was bowing excessively -.-;;;* n i kinda realize i used a higher pitch tha usual and smiling more than usual and a bit more.. umm kinder lookin than usual (?) lolz.. owh wel.. i guess i was hepi wif wat i was doin~ its fun and rewarding ^^ and on top of that.. gotta socialize around wif other volunteers.. meetin new peepz! which is always fun :) i shud do these kinda things more often... it is pretty rewarding... so yeah ^^ and of course, it didnt rain which allowed us to remain dry the whole day... and def, since its in uwa... shoppin.. and bought my edamame and gobo.. and sotaimo! :DDDD heee cookin is fun :)

---------------------post finals--------------------------------------------------------------

meet up wif d gurls (dib, joyce, manny, keat yee, chai fong, yih en) and had sushi for dinner after my finals!!! musashi @ wallingford... it's pretty nice there i guess.. a bit small --> x reli a fam place 2 go bt its a gud place 2 jz drop by get something and get going.. ^^ it is gud and d price is reasonable :) tnx 2 joyce who dragged all of us there.. ^^ and then later after that --> bbtea at oasis and guess who i met.. noelle and damon.. xD chat 4 a bt b4 joinin d gurls gain... ^^ *owh n i got green mango slush xD --> it's ok i guess bt x sour >.<* we talk bout lots of random stuff... boy we havent met 4 a long time!! it felt like a tiny reunion.. xcept tat we din take tat much pics xD i kinda miss evry1.. we shud def do tat again soon... talk talk talk at oasis til ard 9 --> went 2 bartells --> joyce hse till 1100 -.-;;; --> bck home.. lol

anime anime anime --> essay --> anime --> essay --> anime --> essay --> anime --> edit! i luv editin bt i tink editin is harder than writin d paper itself.. i did edit my own ppr n ended up rewritin d whole essay --> cz d msg wasnt clear.. -.-;;;;;; owh well.. lets c hw things goes...

ps: i jz pulled an all nighter.. havent slept since i woke up 4 xm... i nvr pull all nighter 4 d right reason xD

im silly~ LOL

so due to the past few days of hibernating b4 i reli wanna do tat.. i tried to do things one step ahead b4 my brain tell myself to hibernate.. :DDDD i tried to outdo myself.. LOL so what i did was past midnite --> turn off d lights --> roll myself wif my blanky --> continue readin my notes and that was the nite when i stayed up pretty late but then alas.. i did sleep in front of my lappy without me realizin it.. xcept tat tis time i managed to save some electricity rather than waking up and WTH! lights are still on~ xD d silly things i do~ xD

and. and... my listenin practice for korean.. :D im very happy i am a bit more enlightened when listenin korean songs.. im no more listenin jz 4 d heck of it bt im tryin 2 understand d song.. :DDD its goin on pretty well so far *minus off the vocab i dont know* but there are a few things which i realize are my major weakness. i havent managed 2 tell d diff between ㅗ n ㅓ, ㅔ n ㅐ *though i was told it sounds d same bt its hard 4 me to translate what it means coz i keep on gettin d wrong spelling* and double consonants. i would also say in songs its hard for me to catch the word and it kinda makes me confused... and i feel totally silly when i read the lyrics and im like.. owh.. i noe tat word actually -.-;;;;;;;;;;;; orz owh well.. more room for improvement! ^^

me T.T --> bad student @.@

these couple of days.. ive been falling a sleep in front of my laptop.. and i have x idea wat time did i exactly fall asleep T.T d nxt thing i noe.. i wake up around 4am and d lights and all are still on.. and def my laptop.. ill b like half asleep... turn off d lights --> shut down my laptop --> grab my mp3 *for some reasons and turn it on* --> and hibernate again... my brain is hibernatin b4 i tell it 2 do so.... this is.. x bad but shocking... usually i tell myself 2 sleep.. but now sleep comes before i want 2... LOL i cant exactly blame my brains.. ive been tryin 2 think of multiple things at d same time... straighten things up... etc.. n yesterday was cleanin day 2 *d ritual b4 finals *though nw its gettin messay again but well..* i guess i was quite exhausted... bt i shud def start studyin... d 3 main things i need 2 do are: studyin --> writing --> writing xD 2 writings... one for my sis and one for myself.. so yeah~ T.T time management! xD

question of the day: how bad can i mess things up?

ok so today.. i know i need to go to school early.. to print out my script to pass it to my teacher... wake up early, checked! yes i managed to wake up earlier than usual.. more like i have been waking up earlier than usual the past couple of days.. for some unknown reason.. maybe my brain is taking charge of my body and telling me how i need to start waking up early... owh.. well.. but i did end up rolling in my blanky for another half an hour.. but even after that its still earlier than usual~

get stuff ready... edit the script again *adding in all the corrections* and then i was thinking.. i need to do something with it.. but.. owh well... i have no idea what is it... let's just shut the laptop and start getting ready to school... *mistake 1*

then move out of room --> take all stuff i need and went to reheat my lunch... then --> owh... why are things not so clear.. gosh.. spectacles *mess up 2* --> went to the room and get it

packing stuff up.. hmm.. today saba... wait... i think i need something else... what else should i bring for my lunch.. yeah.. gum.. crap, its in the room *mess up 3* --> went back to my room and get it

ok.. today.. IMA.. clothes, etc all ready... owh wait... shoes.. hmm its in the locker room.. owh yeah... my socks for wateva im gonna do there... nice.. i gotta go to my room again *mess up 4*

so yeah.. from leaving at 945... i ended up leaving at 1010. yeah still have a lot of time to go to ode --> PAA and still not be late for class... i can walk fast.. heeee... not too bad...

walking to the lib.. why do i need 2 go there.. yeah print the script... i lost my USB again.. so.. crap, i forgot to mail the document to my own email so that i can print it... owh yeah, that was what i was supposed to do before shutting down my laptop *continuation of mess up 1* man.. whats wrong with me today... so rushed to the library... and my laptop took ages to start up... got it printed at 1030. there goes my time management... rushed to class... late but thankfully class havent started yet... \^O^/

lunch time... ok sweet. lunch... yeah.. xcept i kinda lost my appetite since yesterday --> gotta force myself to eat *+ yesterday, forced myself to cook.. i dun feel like it at all* so i thought things will be fine from now... well x reli fine but at least without any messing up of stuff.. ate lunch.. ok i wanna drink my tea... and then... THEN! damn i forgot to soak my tea bag -.-; *mess up 5* seriously...

its only half day gone.. i wonder what else can i mess up today.. 5 things in a day... im feeling even worse now... i havent been feeling right for the past few days and i guess.. its causin me to mess my days even more... T.T

---------------------------part 2

went to d gym.. got lazy.. i was supposed to do some stretchin + sit up + push up --> laziness.. i cut everything to lesser number of times... see... im lazy and i ended up staring at the ceiling or at the floor for a few mins.. i din reli mess netin up here or there at ima. but then i managed to do elliptical at a constant pace *HAHAHA* for 30mins.. which means.. mayb.. maybe my stamina is gettin a bit better! :D (+1) so yeah i was pretty happy~ :D

so after ima-ing inclusive of all d stuff i do there... i started to walk back home.. HOME early coz internet was really bad back at suz... it was soo slow i felt like i could faint.. i couldnt even talk 2 my fwen... gosh... (mu6)

so i was walkin hepily.. innocently tinkin things will b fine now.. walking.. walking.. looking at the grass and then i almost twisted my ankle... (mu7) i wasnt jumping or anything like it... i just almost fell and was close to twisting my ankle.. T.T for no reason... for no reason at all.... no1. it was embarrassing no2. it hurts.. a bit... when i thought all will be fine.. T.T

nxt.. i started walking like an obaasan.. super slow... and my bag was sumwat super heavy.. its d usual load but it felt worse than usual all d way up d stairs frm ima... man.. i guess its just me being weird... maybe its d weight of wat im tinkin off makes me a bit.. crazy.. possibly... -.-; but well... and i continued walkin slowly xcept when crossing roads *i dun plan 2 get hit by a car or anger drivers for crossing like a turtle* so yeah... it took me hmm... 40mins ish to walk back today... lol.. double the time than usual... -.-;

but on d way bck... (mu8) took place... yeah... i was walkin and suddenly i dropped my file for no reason.. i was holding it and it just.. slipped.. i tink i accidentally let it go.. or something like that... i didnt bump into anythin neither was i shocked by anything.. i just... dropped it... for no apparent reason... -.-;

at least now im safe bck at home... i hope im not going 2 do anytin which could make things worse for me.. studies wise.. im almost done with all readings.. so not too bad.. ill try my best 2 b gentler 2 myself~

phew.. looonnnggg day~ ^_^

today is highline taikai! yeah,, initially i was more to super nervous that i thought im going to faint at the dojo.. but i guess i wasnt supremely nervous that it didnt actually happen *good thing* so i managed to wake up early and got at the parking lot on time 2 meet up with the others~ *phew* looking at how bad i am at waking up in the morning.. it is a really good thing that i managed to pull it off... more like i know i can wake up just that im being plain old lazy me~ XD

so d taikai.. it went well... tied one, lost 2.. -.-; but at least it's d experience which really matters to me... some comments which i received *it sumwat sounds like tis*

1. you make many good hits *HIHIHI* but i dont know which one do you want. u need to show me what you really want to hit so that i can call it a point --> resolution: i need 2 b more decisive when doin any matches and instead of just hitting whatever i can get.. plan ahead.. *if i can do tat -.-;*

2. you were 2 close in, so that's why all ur hit gets jammed --> resolution: im bad at my distance, bt ill try 2 be more mindful of it and instead of just hitting whenever i want to.. i should think first~

3. you did good by chasing them after getting hit but you should do it at 3/4 of their speed so tat u dun get too close in and hit too deep --> resolution: i should use my common sense more rather than just go around running.. gotta remember distance T.T

4. you might need to hold your komai higher since others are taller so its ez 4 thm 2 get ur men. but you put a lot of pressure *or is it tension.. -.-;* im proud of you! *i love Noelle!* :D --> resolution: adjust my komai and continue putting pressure

conclusion: i need 2 use my brain more durin kendo.. i shall have fun but at d same time more tactical? hee im kinda xcited for practice tis wed and uw taikai too~ :D fun friday, most prob ill jz help out.. unless if sumtin else cmes up~ esp since im a 4kyu.. i tink i shud def try harder 2 improve my kendo... and x mess around too much.. bt at d same time not lose d fun of doin kendo :)

hmm other imp dates... lets c... meetings and quizzes...
03.16 --> korean finals
03.18 --> sisea 212 finals



and




i shall stop there.
