attended my youth exchange program orientation. several ye shared their previous experience. this girl gained 10 kg after her stay. *oh noo!* i can't be fattter than i am now. then they mentioned abt the bathing experience... and how jap ppl are very generous. if u stared real hard at smtg u like, they might actually buy it for u. *ipod*Ps2* hehe but i won't do such thing. i'm thankful n glad that a family would be hosting me. still dunno how many hosting family i'll get though. there was a girl who had a ride on a helicopter around Japan. *dies* another girl who went to a town/suburb area was treated like a celebrity. coz its like the onli msian in the small town n everyone was so greatful. she met with the town mayor, appeared on their newsletter and their cable tv. man i can't wait for my trip. now have to figure out wat to bring to japan as gifts. any ideas? all i can think is lotsa of tidbits like dodol, sticky nutty chinese cookie, pewter, postcards. thought of making cross-stitch photo frame with santa claus for christmas.

oh got kittens behind my house again. its in the neighbour's backlawn. *meow*meow* the whole entire day. and i actually witnessed a kitten suicide. there was this kitten left out in the open by the mummy while the other kittens were in the bush. not sure why though. so that kitten kept on purring n crawling around that area. its prob a day old coz it can't walk yet. then the next time i take a look at it, it was near the door and was moving so much as it was drizzling. suddenly it moved over the door and slipped into the drain. hope its alright.

wish me luck for my first paper tmrw.

hehe juz had the desire to blog... juz switched to beta blogger which i've no idea wat's it all about. it looks way complicated though. will look into that after finals. juz can't stand sitting on my chair anymore. now lying on the floor trying to study but haha my laptop was juz too irresistable. =D its running on batteries to limit my usage.

aih wat an unproductive day i had. got an early replacement lecture at 8am. supposedly to wake up earlier to send bro for SAT test at metropolitan and dad said i have to leave house at 7.15am!!?!! me knowing the traffic early morning there would be totally free wan lar. but no i juz have to abide to his time. haha but guess wat at 730am i was still asleep. zzZZzz.. i think my mum woke me up. =? so dad fetch bro and apparently took sum wrong turnings n had to detour. *sorry daddy*

by 8 am *phew* i was awake and had to rush to uni for class. i can't missed it coz doing group presentation which was 10% of the course. arrived late as usual. aih if onli cars on the fast lane learn how to not hog the lane when u can't drive fast especially stupid vans & lorries. =p yada yada yada i wasn't thattt late lar coz she was onli on her 2nd or 3rd slide onli. I Definitely was not the latest =) fast-forward to our presentation, sum group went first. boy they were good & sounded soo prepared . hehe we were kinda last minute coz i didn't send the entire slides to my fren. modem was spoilt few days ago. so she had no time to prepare. *aiks* after we presented i thought our lecturer wasn't too pleased. and she looks like she wasn't paying much attention either. haha but after we saw our evaluation paper... we got a 8.2%! *woohoo* and it was higher than the other group. *kiasunism* =p

then tried to study for finals but i slept throughtout the afternoon. *dies* seriously how to Not feel sleepy while studying? and this dumb subject which is like freaking history, prob worst!! ! it does not have textbook so we have to read journalsSss as references. And they are like 20-30-40 pages lOng... with small wordings and super chun english which requires me to re-read them again n again. *faints* i have juz successfully finished ONE journal which took me several days off n on lar. OMG i've no idea how i'm gonna finish 11 more topics wif like 3-4 journals for each in exactly 14 days to go. *HELP* plus 3 other subjects which i've not touched *sobs*

oct 30- Multinational trade & investment
nov 3- Marketing research
nov 6- Integrated marketing communication
nov 8- Economics subject. (trade n finance smtg smtg)

*freedom*

i think from high sch to cpu to university level, i tend to study way less along the way. In high sch i attended tuitions which drills us wif workbooks n homeworks n all. so it was basically studying everyday kinda. for cpu we had like weekly test, quiz pretty often which forces us to read up as well. University level, oh dear... double assignments for like every single subject. but somehow doesn't require much usage of txtbook. mine are more on creativity n issues which we collect info from the internet. so bascially thru out my sem i think i have a few untouched txtbooks and have no idea wat i've learnt in this 13 weeks. And have to absorbed it all down in less than 2 weeks. *failing is not an option*

oh yar yesterday, our lecturer invited our mktg research book author, prof Malhotra to give us a talk. the thing that i remembered fr his entire 1-hour talk was *marketers are, researched proven, future CEO* =) whoa! so who knows i might be one in the near future. muahahha

oh gosh enough of me crapping! i knoe i've bore u all out but seriously i juz dun wanna get back to studying =( *procrastination ain't good* hehe i even saw the entire match of wigan vs manu. i think final score was 1-2. manu were down a goal in the first 5 minutes. a free kick by sum fella pretty near the goal and went right in. oh gosh! hehe but after half time, manu scored 2 goals in the 50th - 60th minutes. *woohoo* smithy n ronaldo didn't play. but it was all good! =) this would prob be my last post until after exams. *best of luck to everyone else who's sitting for exams* Gambate!!!
