The kind of conversation you have on your last weeks of university

Here's one piece of conversation that we had during lunch today.....

Oh, here's some piece of information you'll need to understand the conversation below:
  • skip 3 times: verbal warning
  • skip 5 times: kicked out of the subject (you DON'T want this to happen)
  • next week is the last week of our university, and it means classes are over :D but.. also the deadline for all those monstrous reports..........

A: I don't want to come to class today..
B: No one wants to go to that class...
A: I think I'll skip.
C: Ugh.. I can't skip anymore, I already skip 2 times and I'm planning to skip next week. So...
B: Yea A, come for today and we'll skip all of the classes for next week.
A: But I don't think going to that class will give me anything useful..
B: No, we'll go to class today and we'll skip for the last week... c'mon A..
C: Yea, go to class today and we'll skip next week.
A: But I want to skip today AND next week as well
D: But then you'll miss too many classes
B: Yea, and xxx (censored for everyone's peacefulness) for sure will do the absences without fail.
A: I only skip xxx class once, so I can skip now, and the 2 classes next week as well. Coz that means I only skipped 4 times, and verbal warning at the end of semester is totally useless.
D: oh... wow... you only skipped once?
A: yup..
B: I already skipped twice... so.. c'mon A, go to class today and we'll skip all of next week classes together!!
A:..... I don't want to... it's useless......
C: oh there's xxx!! Now A.. you can't skip anymore
B: yup, xxx knows that you're here!!!
A: %^(*&%$#$%^&&*

In the class before it starts...

E: someone please tell me what are we doing here??
A: that's exactly what I'm thinking about!!!
E: yea.. what's this gathering about???
A: I just hope it's going to be something useful...... really.....
E: nah... we're going to waste our time.. again..

What I WILL have in the future

Today I just realized that there are so many things that I want to do and have, or rather that I'm sure I WILL have in the future but I don't have them now.

I just went back from horse riding after haven't ridden one for a long time, and then when I'm just resting a bit, I heard a classic music in piano and it really made me want to play my piano. I realized that there are so many things that I missed from home, and how different my life here, independently and at home when I am dependent to my big family.

Life here is harder, I really need to put on account on everything that I want to buy, because I earned the money myself and the money would not come by itself like magic. Not like when I was still with my parents when I can just ask them that I want that thing or I need that thing, and the next thing was me, obtaining the things that I want. Well, a little bit of persuading is needed of course, but I know I could get it easy.

Here I don't have the luxury of home, the super nice bed and room, nice food without me have to cook or cleaning before and after, when I can just relax, drive my own car, play piano whenever I want and have lavish parties every now and then with my family and friends. No.. not here, not now. Everything need to be budgeted if I don't want to go broke in the middle of the road and have no money to do anything at all.

Well, I'm used to it. To live economically and super saving.
But also, how I realized that I don't want to live like this forever. I'm going to earn lots of money. I'm going to be able to live like I used to be (I know this is very selfish). I don't know how but I know I would be able to live like that again someday :D

And so.. I'm making a list of the things that I WILL have in the future :D

  • Grand piano
  • Nice house
  • A horse
  • A yacht
  • A couple of nice cars
  • A Siberian Husky
  • More lenses for my Nikon D90
  • Telescope

* Graduate!!!
* Get a job
* Scratch off the things to do before graduation list
* Get the weight down to at least 58 kg
* Improve photography skills
* Start to think about my own business
* Keep in touch with my university friends

Ok short one :D but at least it would be easier to keep!!!

Make up.....


I don't know why... suddenly I'm looking at the make up tutorial videos in YouTube....

Honestly, I'm not really a make up girl, most of the days you'll find me without make up. Even if I do wear make up, most likely it's only an eyeliner and a little bit of eye brows and that's all seriously.

If you saw me in a full make up... which is very very rare... usually it's for a very important party like my family wedding or something. Even I don't wear proper make up for my diploma graduation ceremony.... I know sometimes I'm pathetic as a girl.. My mother, aunties even grand aunt already suggest me to wear more make up, and encourage me to do it every single day....

Well.... they succeed to make me wear make up more often.. but still not everyday :D


It's not that I can't do make up... I can..
But... well... I'm just too lazy most of the time. Make up took time, and honestly sometimes make up bothers me. If suddenly it rains or you did something that made you sweat.. your appearance is even worse with make up.. Okay, you can wear waterproof products... but then you also need to use special other product to actually clean your face.

Oh there you go, another part that I don't like... cleaning your face took longer than usual plus also the feeling of wearing make up somehow makes my face oilier... and I don't like that.

hahaha yup, it's just all of the reasons why I don't wear make up most of the time...

Though I also realize that it's impossible for me to not wear make up especially later on when I'm officially in the career path. Make up is part of woman's clothes. Sooner or later I do need to wear make up....... >.< I guess... I really need to accustom myself to use make up from now... well... not the full fledged make up of course... just a simple one... maybe more on the eye... or maybe with powder.... not lipstick... I don't like those since I was young. :D I remembered when I was little, I was one of the bride's maid for my uncle's wedding, so they put make up on me. But I hate the feeling of wearing lipstick.. when no one was looking, I took it off hahahahahahaha :D



Anyway... from the videos that I watched.. This girl that doing the tutorial video, she also gave tips for healthier skin.. and yups.. it goes back to a healthy life style. I guess I do need to improve my healthy life style again... I did improve it before but then it goes back again to the unhealthy style... and now... I guess I really do put back the standard and improve :D

Well.. if I have a nicer skin.. it means less make up!!!! hahahahaha

Pressure's off but here he comes again...



Yup, did I ever tell you that I had a very relax days last week? Just because my midterm is past? and then we started totally with new subjects on the second part of the semester? Means that now we're just starting again and it also means that the projects would be far off later on?

Truth is... all of the above is just 'or so I thought...'

Last time... I could say I was underestimating my projects, I'm not really prepared yet for them and suddenly the deadline is in front of my eyes and I really felt that I should have done better by preparing better. I should have done it earlier is the sentence that always rang in my head. Not that I don't have enough time to do them, I do have enough time, I could finish all of them on time...
But still... I think I could have done better.

So.. here I am, in my second week of new subjects, sitting in the Library with books around me.
Yeah.. no kidding.....

I know some people do thought of me as a nerd or a diligent student or something. Truth is... I'm not as nerdy as they thought. I do take my time to relax, watch movies, going out, do my stuff and put my projects on a later date. Usually there are people pushing me around to finish my things early, that's how I finished early.
I remember during my high school, there are several people that always waiting for my home works because they need to copy it or to make it as the base of their work... so they keep pushing and asking me when I am finished.... That's how I actually finished my projects earlier.. and now without them catching my tails all the time, I'm pretty relax, and that's the truth.

So.. I think it's because of that thought of I should have done better, that drives me to start early. I made it clear in my calendar of when I should start doing each of my project and the preparation. I'm actually also glad that I had a new friend that is a workaholic, she started way early and done so many things... I think it's also a push factor for me to actually focus and serious at my studies and projects.

And yes, I have decided to be the good student that start the projects early, do a proper research about them and make a nicely done reports. I'll start early now, well, it's not bad for an ending of university life in this school on the top of the ski resort mountain of mine right? It's time to actually practice the slogan of "work hard and play hard" :D
