Day 185-188

Gesh, I finally managed to finalize my finance assignment. I thought I could have a good night's sleep not until I heard... *drips* *drips* ...is it raining outside, I wonder. Later, I realized that the sound is in the room not outside and the water is dripping from the air-conditional. I sighed before I get dry cloth to wipe the dripping water. The worst thing the water landed one of my many pillows. Not until I woke up an hour ago and send the pillows for drying.

*sighs* I just realized that the pictures I taken regarding the air conditional leakage has been deleted.

Day 166+8+1= Day 175

Buzz. I have been stop blogging for 1 month plus! Need to keep it frequently updated back. After the auspicious Chinese New Year holidays, my 3rd semester commerced officially. Thanks to my extra-super food picky this time in Penang, I managed to avoid myself from getting stomach flu or food poisoning or what ever that is related to stomach pain.

*****

Before Chinese New Year, I accepted a part-time job that causes me to type hundreds of McDonald's Kidz Membership into the database my sister given.

the layout of the RMKC form...packages of RMKC ready for typing...

the database...

As shown the above images I carefully (quickly) scanned through the piles of forms and every 'creative' handwritings and key them in. Guess what? I even have to do it during the Chinese New Year. >_< style="font-style: italic;">hardest thing in this job? To make fast decision based on the horrible raw handwriting. You can't tell whether is the parents or their children who wrote the particulars in the form, some parents even confused about their child's gender, inside the male tick box, they wrote the letter 'f', for female of course. I wonder they have decided to change their child's sex during early stage and finally they couldn't decide whether the child is a girl or a boy. *SighS* Some poor souls even do not have place to live in Malaysia. So one fine day they ran to Pakistan, and one fine day they come back to Malaysia, and they apply RMKC (not Rowling Meets King's Cross but Ronald McDonald's Kidz Club by the Golden Arches) even they have realized that they are no longer kidz. The winner of filling RMKC form goes to the person well understand that clarity of the handwriting is the most important thing in filling form, so the person took a type-writer machine and typed meticulously. *Bows with Repect!*

Journey to Penang is extremely cooling though we caught in the heavy traffic.

Frustrated with the slow trail, motorists decided to take up the fast lane a.k.a. emergency lane.

Dangerous: it is really hard for my father to steer his car in this blurish vision.

Its Gonna Rain!

Traveling in a misty area..

It took us around 9 hours to reach Penang, what an exhausting trip indeed~!

To be continue...

Day 146-166 + Study Leave + Exam Week

Wow I did not that time move swiftly and it is approaching 200 days my life in UTAR.

Study Leave:

I cannot recall properly what I have done during the given a week's time for studying. What makes me have the deepest impression was the Student Representative Handover Ceremony. Too bad I did not have a camera phone (though it has camera but problem with the firmware does not allow me to capture anything to the phone's memory) to capture the UTAR president, as I shacked my hand with her.

I feel somewhat awkward and loss before and during the ceremony was going on. I was told by a senior (I realized that during the ceremony) to attend this ceremony and I was informed to wear formal. I did not know anything about the ceremony, like what is it for, the objective of this ceremony, what am I suppose to do over there, totally blank.

I was LOST. I did not know WHO to look for.

I couldn't recognized any of the same stream class representative except for one, which I didn't talk much with her as well.

Rolls of black coated students (which make me different as I am not wearing coat) stood outside the pathway of Auditorium 1 and 2 and PB block. According to the so called 'invitation letter' it stated the ceremony would begin at 2pm.

Blindly, I just followed them standing the pathway, later I realized that we got to greet the President.

And blindly, I did not know where should I sit.

And blindly again, I observed the ceremony.

And unblindly, I understand the importance of the existence of the class and student representative as the link or communication tool between the students and the university.

After the ceremony, was TEA TIME. Yummy! Good food. Talked with some seniors. (opps I have forgetten their names!!) They are nice people. Glad to know them. Too bad I cannot really meet them that often as our classes are totally different. Meeting them in this ceremony is not a coincident, rather inevitable or hitsuzen.

Its Saturday night. Its time for me to take a break after 48 hours of marketing revision. I found a minor mistake in the definition of retailing in my PowerPoint Notes given by my lecturer:

"Retailing consists of buying and selling products and services to customers for business and personal use."

Later I found out in the PDF notes and look through the textbook, and confirmed with the internet resource using google and concluded:

"Retailing consists of buying and selling products and services to customers for non-business and personal use."

Gosh this is horrible mistake as it could lead thousand of students confusing themselves between retailing and wholesaling as retailing is for non-business while wholesaling is for business use.

Quickly, I called Song^2 and John told them about the minor mistake.

My bro surprised me that he wanted to study with me in McDonald because I thought he could study better alone as he always telling me that he could not help himself talking in a group study.

Surprise, surprise.

Examination Week:

Exceptionally worried. Though I can do well in most of my subjects, I’m lack of confidence on sociology and cost accounting. >_<

*****

That’s all for today’s post. Got to move on.

Empty Promises

What is your response went a person fails to fulfill the promised criteria?

• Leave the person be, I have tons of things needed to be done.
• Take a machine gun and kill the person instantly (literally)
• Forget about it, it is a small matter anyway
• End any relationship with that person
• Frustrated about it, but conceal your true feelings because you don't want to hurt the person as well
  

Well, I just being dumped by 2 person who told me triumphantly that they want to to study with me. At the end, they failed to do it because:

• One has an appointment with his friend
• Another does not have a mood to study with 2 people

Have they ever thought of the person who sacrifice his time just to satisfy their needs? I afraid not. I feel myself like a fool believing a fool's word and being cheated by fools. Isn't it crazy enough? Yet, those are not ordinary people, they are my friends who I trusted the most. Looks like I have been a fool for trusting them. *sighs*
