exams, are just around the corner. less than 7 days to be exact. and my preparation for it? zip, zero, nada.
and this is really getting to me. i'm stress out, exhausted, and feeling quite lethargic. my body is out of control now... feeling tired even though i just woke up.. craving for sleep. i feel sapped of my energy.

and the issue? apparently, stress and panicking is 2 totally different entities.
i'm stress that exams are so close, and i'm not ready for it.
i'm not panicking, which is bad.
i have no motivation whatsoever to study.
i'm afraid of screwing up, but i don't feel like studying.
the mood is just not there.
i wake up thinking i should study today but end up lazing my life away.
i definitely cannot study finish in time.

conclusion? i'm fucked

during the awake period of the past few days, my activities have been limited and restricted to the following :-
1. Study
2. Gunbound
3. Cooking/Eat
4. Bathing/Call of Nature
5. Napping
which is really kinda sad. if u wanna count proportions in a day, i'm on a 12 hour sleep plan....1 1/2 hours for 2 meals, including cooking, 1 hour for bathing and frequent answering of natures call, 2 hours napping, an 5 1/2 hours of gunbound. this mean, i can only cram 2 hours of much needed study into my oh so busy schedule. tsk tsk. bad.
but the worse thing is, i've been thnking alot lately (thinking time, i cram within my sitting on the toilet bowl sessions, waiting for my computer to restart session, and short study breaks), about engineering. i mean, heck, i hate it. i despise it. i have no interest whatsoever in it. why did i take it? i'd like to know. i entered SAM with no plans for whats ahead. only thing in my mind, was getting a girlfriend, clubbing alot, and oh, maybe getting some grades in studies. which was one of my lowest priorities.
of course, theres my very brilliant cousin sister of mine, which is a graduate of sheffield mechanical engineering with 1st class honours, as well as 2 of my cousins which are currently taking engineering (well, one was taking, but he changed subject). i guess they was quite an influence on me. i had my sights set on mechanical engineering for abit (thank god i didnt go that way), and then changed to electrical. why? because during the study counselling session i went for, i discovered electrical engineering was close to computer science (so the counsellor said, and wrong she was!), and i had interest in computers, so i thought, hell yea! dumbest mistake of my life.
i figure another reason would be financing. sure, my mum keeps telling me 'dont let our finances get in the way of your future', and my dad goes 'if you want it, ill find a way to pay for it'. but could they? could i bear asking for so much? and its not like they gave me all the freedom to choose. the two main criterias they wanted me to fulfil was basicly, 1. minimum of 2 years overseas study. and 2. study in UK, no australia. to this pretty much screws up my life already. i mean, heck, i've looked at twinning courses inti had to offer and such. only choice was sheffield. it fits both criteries fine.. but did i have any other choice? given a chance, i'd be doing a 4 year course in computer science in the university of southern california, or maybe MIT. or even if no US of A, maybe australia. UK wouldnt be a keen choice for me. sure, i love the environment, but can they provide the courses i need? i need programming, state of the art languages and courses. UK varsities are more, backwards for this case.
you see, my keen interest lies in programming. not that i have great knowledge about it, but i can pick up fast (when i have the mood, which doesnt come often, hence why i'm not bill gates), and i am willing to do on my free time. like my old SAM IT Studies lecturer told me, programming is more of an art than science, theres not one single fixed method to do it. theres many ways to get to that point, some better, some worse. and thats what i like. cracking my head over how to simplify a program, how to integrate a function into it, or just finding out whats wrong with it. its like mounting a challenge for me, one which i will probably work on to solve. its totally different from engineering. theres a bunch of formulas given, and bla bla bla. which would probably be why i loved my 1st year C Programming Class, why i took the dreaded Microcontrollers Programming design project, and why i'm doing a Electronics Systems major next year.
so what can i say? do i love engineering? no. was it a mistake to take engineering? yes. would i jump at the chance to change courses? yes. so what can i say? my whole future is already a mistake. i'm doomed. eek.

i stumbled upon this across the net, and decided, hey! this is an excellent marketing strategy and self promotion for myself. and i havent seen any results so far, but heck, it might work. theres a chance, ill take it. so everyone, please welcome, derek wong - hot engineer boyfriend prospect!
Get Yourself An Engineer For A Boyfriend

Today's lesson - Girls must be convinced, so
learn to promote yourself - convince them that
'Engineers are the Best Boyfriends'
Let me tell you why girls should eventually marry
an engineer over a Law, Management, Arts or
Medical School Graduate. He has three distinct
advantages over the rest of the graduates.

Advantage 1:
Secure lifestyle
An engineer boyfriend can provide you with a secure lifestyle.
At 27 years old, an engineer probably has a
respectable, stable job that gives him a high
income to own a car, invest, have a comfortable
life, and get married and buy a house too. Law
graduates are still working as a lowly apprentice
in a law firm, most management graduates have just
failed on their first business plan, the arts
graduate is still looking for a job, and the
medical school graduate is still living in a
hospital. ---

Advantage 2:

Unmatchable industriousness
An engineer boyfriend will dedicate an unimaginable
amount of his time and effort to understand you.
Engineers strain really really hard to understand
their work. You can believe that they will try
really really hard to understand women too, just
like how they understand their work, once they
believe that you are the one. So even if they
don't understand you initially, they will keep on
trying. Even if they still do not understand, they
will figure out the correct method to keep you
happy (e.g. buy diamond ring = 1 week's worth of
happiness.) And once they find out the secret
formula, they will just keep on repeating it so
that the desired results appear. Unlike the Lawyer
who will argue with you, the Management graduate
who will try to control your spending, the Arts
graduate who will 'change major', and the medical
school graduate who will operate on you. And you
know what, it's really so easy to make engineers
believe that you are the 'one'. Say that you like
one of their projects and they will be hooked to
you forever.-

Advantage 3:

An engineer boyfriend will never betray your trust.
Let me first tell you what is wrong with
the rest of the others - the lawyers will lie
about everything, management graduates will cheat
your money, the arts graduate will flirt, and you
probably just look like another cadaver to the
medical school graduate. Your engineer boyfriend
is either too busy to have an affair, and even if
he does, he is too dumb to lie to you about that.

Hence, an engineer is the most secure boyfriend
that you will ever find - rich enough, will keep
on trying to understand and please you, has no
time for affairs, and too dumb to lie to you. So
girls, why procrastinate? Get an engineer for your
boyfriend!

oh what can i say.... i'm the perfect man for u ladies out there. wahaha.

this site is gay. i mean, just look it! geez, i definitely DO NOT have a job preference for those. except fluffy bunny trainer, that might be cool.

Derek, Your ideal job is a Kids TV Presenter.
Derek Wong, Your ideal job is a Muppet Impersonator.
Wong Kah Wai, Your ideal job is a Fluffy Bunny Trainer.
Derek Wong Kah Wai, Your ideal job is a Pole Dancer.

Satpal Singh Purba, Your ideal job is a Emperor of all the world. This is exceptionally bullshit


anyway, the BBQ turned out great. everyone was happy and jolly, the food wasnt really enough, alcohol and drinks were on the free flow.. almost perfect. and i got a bunch of pressies to boot! 2 shirts (courtesy of jean, pui kwan, yu min for the Topman shirt, and chin seng, ying hui and kathetine for the Rocha shirt. both fits me snuggly.), 2 bottles of wine (gifts from chin hui, milo and chow hao, and one mug (from ban, which hence makes me have 3 mugs, 3 pint glasses, and 1 half pint glass for myself alone). it was fun, for all who came, i owe you my humblest thanks. especially to jean and pui kwan for kindly letting me burn down their garden, and satpal for putting on such a cool fire show to start it all. and thank you EVERYONE for beating the crap out of me 3 times.... ill remember to return the favour on ur birthday.

and of course, theres the aftermath, which is the typical drinking frenzy we always go thru on birthdays. chivas... i've been yearning for that for ages, plus carlsberg and wine, it can kill. had lotsa casualties that night, and some very interesting things which i dare not mention, or this will be the last post i make if i do. either way the night was great and lotsa fun. thx everyone. i wanna go to the side and sulk away coz i'm an uncle now.

so for those which are still in the dark, its my birthday! which is somewhat a day where i become stupid, foolish and lavish. a somewhat change from the past 2 years, instead of me blowing cash on opening bottles in a clubs, ill be hosting a barbeque party outside my flat.
anyway, enough about plans for the future, i wanna bitch abit right now. i aint sure if i'm just oversensitive or what... but well, i know myself well enough. since SAM, i've been making my birthday a great night out with friends on my expense. why? maybe i craved attention. i think its the same case now. i jst want the world to know it my birthday, reminding them, so to see that out of sincerity, i get a nice birthday wish a year later. i celebrate others birthday nicely as well, calling them from sheffield to aussie and malaysia. only thing i truly wish for, is that they actually remember mine, and just wish me back. even an SMS would be fine, as long as the thoughts are there. but are there? none. any close friends called me? none. even an SMS or MSN message? none.
save for one. catherine. my lovely catherine. shes the only thoughtful one about, the only one i can cling to in times of distress. every year, at the stroke of midnight, she'll be ringing me, wishing me happy birthday. even after we broke up, and when i thought i'd never see her again, she called me. that was when i first spoke to her since the break. so i cherish it eternally.
anyway, no use reminising about the past. lets just look forward to what may come. we'll see how tomorrow turns out. i just hope it doesnt rain.


*edit* ok, maybe i was a lil moody when i typed this post. i did get messages and calls back from malaysia. bea was nice enough to design me a cool birthday card, rabi msged me a day late, chris (suprisingly) actually dropped me a txt, and many more. i'm satisfied as a whole. except for 2 stupid pricks philip and johnson. dam buggers those two are.

*edit*
kevin forgot my birthday. sob sob. some friend he is.

*edit* philip wished me. 2 days late for malaysia time, but oh well, better than nothing. suprisingly, i got an ICQ msg from david lim. hahaha. something truly and very unexpected. oh well, we're left with johnson now. something i doubt will be. hes fucking ignorant in many ways.

omg, look at this. argh, lemme quote on this.
Keira Knightley - one of Britain's most slender stars - has said she feels fat in Hollywood.The 19-year-old Pirates of the Caribbean actress has been spending a lot of time in Los Angeles due to her work.Despite enjoying her time in the Californian city, Knightley said she would continue to live in Britain.
Teen Hollywood quoted her as saying: "I love LA, but I couldn't live there.
"If you're walking around LA, you're seeing all these perfect people and you start to think 'I've got to be like that'.
"You have to be really strong to live there - to resist the fad diet and not get the biggest breast implants."
She added: "There are a lot of pressures to conform to type - to be thin, blonde and busty.
"I'm skinny, but even I couldn't fit into some of the clothes there. There are some ridiculously skinny people in LA."

kiera darling... you're slim enough already, get any more diets, and you'll be a walking stick. you're fine...
oh man, i'm obsessing over her too much. argh.

lets not forget her screaming "yamate! yamate!"

i really dont know which is more depressing. the fact that exams are so close, and i cant get into the study gearshift, or that i'm gonna be an old man soon. my dreams are still unfulfilled, and i doubt it will be by this friday. i guess i'll live off the rest of my life, single and lonesome, dreaming of things i couldnt achieve.

oh yea, on another note, i've signed up for my 3rd year modules. considering my financial dificulities, as well as academic qualifications, i've decided to forsake my dream in Masters of engineering in electronics computing, and decided for the simpler, and grander title of Bachelor of Electronics Engineering (Electronics System Thread). still sounds cool, doesnt it? i'm still praying (about another highly unlikely thing), that i will, by some stroke of luck (which doesnt seem to be happenning in sheffield, my malang land), that i achieve results noteworthy enough that i get sponsered a 4th year in computing by the uni itself. or even better, a chance to do Phd, which.. would probably only happen when pigs fly.

and i got a pressie from my mommy! a bank draft, and a birthday card. yahoo. finally, i can actually get out of my indomee diet into a more relaxed and non-repetitive diet. and maybe ill get some cool toy to spoil myself with as well. that would be kinda cool. oh ya! i'm still contemplating how to spend my friday. all the while, i've been thinking to sleep in the whole day, and waste it away, growing old on myself. but, i dunno, they know about it, and company of frens seem nice enough. probably get all piss drunk then. we'll see.

well, i was just thinking, and suddenly i realized, oh farts, i got one week left of teen-hood. this, well, isnt very good. tell me this a few years back, and i'd be filled with joy.. finally able to get out of teenager life, and start anew as a young man. but now.. i feel a ping of regret. teenage is the only time when u can actually go wild, do crazy things, and not give a damn about anything in the world. the free-est time in your whole life. and i pretty much wasted it. starting when u r thirteen, ends after nineteen, that gives u 7 years of teenhood. it does sound long and dreadful at times, but thinking back... is it? 7 years.. and i've already wasted 4 years heads over heels over a girl whose repeatedly broke my heart. the other 3, were the first 3 years of my teen, my so called restricted life back then, not really free to do anything. so its basicly all wasted, isnt it? i lived to enjoy me teenhood, but yet, i've gotten nothing out of it. sure, i'm living a relatively happy life, i cant complain about this. but still, i feel a void in these years, and in one week time, this void will be permanent. hopefully, this will change within a week. wishful thinking. only time will tell.

so today, i decided to do some long needed laundry. well, i didnt do it because... more like forced to.... i mean.. wearing your underwear inside out because u ran out doesnt feel very nice. so i did. and being the wonderful and lazy person i am, instead of doing the standard 20 minutes or 40 minutes of drying, and leaving it in my room for a few more days to dry, i thought 'hey, why not just put in more coins, and dry it longer?' apparently, thats not a good idea. 2 hours of drying is not a good idea. as a result, my clothings are casualty of excessively long tumbling and very high heats. among the fallen, are :
my black sweatshirt which became so fuzzy and puffy i'd only wear it if i were to act as ba ba black sheep in a play.
my padini shirt which i learn never to leave buttons intact while drying, or you'd lose about 3 of them in 2 hours.
my pasar malam tee which is now officially my baby tee, i mean... 3 years and below type of baby tee.
my hush puppies underwear which was torn to a point it looks like a G-String now.
my giordano tshirt which colour faded and got mixed up, it looks like a picasso painting.
oh, and did i mention it wasnt dry in the end? maybe its too much load for once. heck, my wardrobe was emptied out! oh yes, have i mentioned that laundry rooms are dangerous. i mean, very dangerous. sure, from the outside, it looks so innocent and sweet, just swallowing your coins to churn out water or hot air (hey! i got alot of hot air in me myself! pay me to blow it out!). but the inner mechanics of it, deadly. first, it destroys stuff, like as mentioned above. secondly, it has a wonderful appetite for clothings. first, there was the BUM jeans which myteriously disappeared a few months back. and now, it swallows 2 of my socks. TWO OF MY FRIGGIN SOCKS FROM TWO DIFFERENT PAIRS! so now i have two socks to join me in my eternal life of singlehood. maybe ill just wear one side black, and one side white, and start a new trend. haha. but look at it this way.. everything that happened today provides me with a perfectly valid excuse to do some shopping. excuse to spend money. yay!
