Not Fun Anymore

Considering how much I loathe Mawi, guess what is the domain where I will be getting my numerical methods notes from. Yeah, it’s www.mawwi.com. It’s a bitch.

So, I’ve been reading Harry Potter and the half-blood prince lately. Bought it for quite a bargain. Only 36.90MYR in Carrefour. Seriously, I cannot stand Harry’s attitude problems. He rushes into things and I hate reading those  parts. It also dwelves too much on some things, like being mudblooded, Harry’s stupid feelings or Harry being talked about as the chosen one. Obviously, it’s not a masterpiece and will never be up there with tolkien or lewis. Or Enid Blyton, in that sense. Or crayon shin chan, the first few volumes.

it’s been a week and the lights are still not fixed.

Ooh, I didn’t get to peddle my books after all. I didn’t even get to copy and post the booklist I wrote. It’s good to have contacts, really. I sold all my books for very good prices, all except the C-prog book. Because really, nobody is using that piece of shit and my asking price is quite high.

So, I’m going over to my friend’s apartment for a free lunch. Life is good.

I’m back in Uniten. No, I didn’t have sandwich for breakfast, lunch and dinner yet. But I see that coming real soon.

This semester is going to be hectic I guess. I took several heavy subjects but what is life without some challenges thrown in your way, huh? However I refrain from taking subjects offered by the Languages and Liberal Arts Faculty. They work in a fishy sort of way and I’ve never liked not knowing my marks for certain assignments or tests. Yes, they withhold test results. The lecturers would be all nicey-nicey in front of you and when it comes to finals, whether they stick the bayonet into your back or not depends on how lucky you are.

There’s always this one thing on my mind since getting into uniten. I do not look forward to saying hi and smile and nod to every other familiar face I see. Some I don’t even know their names. I definitely do not like it when I come up to someone and wanting to say hi, I just couldn’t decide whether their gaze is actually on me or not. In the end I just stare into the air and walk on by. Or worse, when I actually said hi and they weren’t even looking. Sien, like syok sendiri. I want to put a grocery bag over my head and just walk by minding my own business.

And what is it with Azad’s curry corner dishing out chinese cooking?  If I wanted chinese cooking, the last place I would go is a mamak stall. But I gotta admit their tofu is superb and their steamed egg is so very smooth. But still, the curry kinda sucked now. You know, it’s kinda weird. I guess they changed cook.

The weekend will be a total bore. I got no money to spend anyway.

Over ten million copies, eighteen languages, one film, The Pulitzer Prize and 70 years later, there are people who would still enjoy ‘Gone With The Wind’. And I’m glad I had the luxury of time to read such a thick book. Before this, I would’ve thought that it would be laced with steamy scenes, judging from the cover. Honestly, after reading 1011 pages of the book, I can safely say that Crayon Shin Chan is definitely saucier.

I’ve just finished reading it, seeing that I’ll be going away to study again and it would be such a bother to bring along such a thick book. So, I gave the oh-so-very-the-boring Argentines vs. Germans match a miss and curled up in my bed to read what’s left. It’s been a long time since I can’t put a book down and further indulge in it even though hunger is already gnawing my stomach away. I won’t write a book review because I’m not capable of it. I just know that it’s a great work and I’ve enjoyed it.
The thought of going back to Uniten is somehow bothersome. I don’t like it, but it is inevitable.  I should do good this semester, for last semester was very disappointing. Very disappointing indeed, til my mom couldn’t stop yammering about it. I suppose I have to be hardworking now… and not while my university years away.

Ooh, by the very way, I think I’m gonna sell off some books. They’re just sitting there and I didn’t have any use for them. I’ve been meaning to keep them for future references but I now realize that they are of no use to me at all. This new semester is going to be exciting as I will be peddling my books……muahaahha… I’ll catch myself a good bunch of ’sui yu(s)’–easy conned person(s)/literally,terrapins. Well, we’ll see if I manage to sell any because honestly, my books are so new because I never did use them for any good save for Differential Equations which suffered many doodling and creases due to the combination of a boring lecturer and a frantic last-minute revision. I have higher price expectations for this very reason and I’m not in a hurry to let them go. Haih….but it will be such a bother to bring these books back if I didn’t manage to get any ’sui yu(s)’.

Well, wish me luck for a better semester. I think I might very possibly need them.

And I won’t be blogging til I’ve settled down.

That means when you see a new post, I am, at that moment totally bored out of mind and have had nothing but sandwiches for breakfast, lunch and dinner because I was too damn lazy to drive out.

So long.
