9 interviews... Have I broken any record? So NOT... Hahaha...

I attended 7 interviews n I have so far declined 4 job offers n 2 interview arrangements. The more interviews I go, the more "confused" I get... I'm beginning to lose my way - dunno wat do I wanna do...

The other 3 jobs are not confirmed. I've only went through 1st level interview with them. Haven't gotten a second call except for 1 in PJ, which I'm not very keen in doing due to the environment. Probably not very justifiable with my reason but I rily don have that "click" feel when I went there. The other 2 include Management Trainee in Sakae Sushi n Marketing Officer in IOI Properties. I will consider IOI in a serious manner cos it's an established n prestigious organization. They are top 10 in BSKL (shares). I believe I will get very wide exposure n network by working with them. Will learn a lot of things at the same time. Also, by working in IOI, I will have a boost in my resume next time. Then y am I still thinking about it? 1st: Distance - petrol n toll super costly! 2nd: Working during weekends... The pay is good. Overall I think the job scope n job offer's good. Well, they haven't even called me. So i don even know whether am I shortlisted. Hahaha... Stop dreaming!

2 Interviews that I declined - OCBC Customer Service n ING management trainee. Don ask me y cos it's too late to regret now anyway. Hahaha...

What do I rily wan in my near future? What am I looking for, rily....

Disappointed? Yes, I guess...

Maybe... Probably...

I had too high an expectation of myself...

Too prestigious for me...

It's understandable... Just not my luck...

Declining job offers

So far, I have attended 5 interviews - Nevcorp, HELP, GTI, Idea Kiosk and today, Crystal Edge. I have turned down 3 offers. Nevcorp due to the job scope, HELP due to the familiar environment (I wanna try somewhere new) and Idea Kiosk (pay too low but I think they din wanna offer me either cos the pay expectation was rily tooooo far). Comparing the other 2, I would prefer GTI but the location is seriously not favorable. As for Crystal Edge, they told me to wait for a week to confirm whether I'm offered anot. Well.. that's the update so far...

Galaxy did not contact me. Looks like it's gonna remain a dream/hope... They said there's no job vacancy at the present time... Life goes on...

I have a few job applications which are under consideration in job street but I have yet to receive any call...

I don wanna continue rotting at home. I'm kinda sick n tired of interviews. It's not cheap, u know, especially the travelling fees. So, I hope I get a job that I rily like soon...

Keep my fingers crossed!!!

How weird can one be?Each player of this game starts out by giving 6 weird things about themselves. People who get tagged need to write in a blog of their own 6 weird things as well as state the rules clearly. In the end, you need to choose 5 people to be tagged and list their names. After you do that, leave them each a comment letting them know you tagged them and to read your blog!

1. I care about my appearance very much n I've always wanted to be thinner than my current self (it doesn't matter how fat or thin I am at that moment). So, I guess it's normal for some ppl to think that I have a tendency towards eating disorder.

2. Is being emotional stg weird? Or should I say being emotionally expressive stg weird? Crying n laughing are usually the 2 common emotions that I show then n there. I cry easily e.g. when I watch tv shows (korean, taiwan, wateva), movies (I not stupid II) etc. To me, crying is a way to express how u feel, doesn't matter whether it's happy or sad. There's ntg to be embarrassed about. So, guys out there, do keep this in mind... As for anger, I wouldn't show it at all times cos sometimes it's necessary to keep myself composed. My philosophy: Ppl react the way they do towards u cos of the way u act towards them. So, u angry, I angry, then u angrier, then I angrier n the cycle continues...

3. I like to observe n analyse ppl which sometimes annoys my bf. I may find that particular person or group interesting when it doesn't interest him the least bit. It seemed to him that I do it almost all the time. Well, as a psych graduate, I would say it's normal... Haha...

4. Not that I like changing clothes a lot, it's just that I have problem pairing up my clothes. I may think top A and bottom B match but when I put them on, the combination just sucks! So, I'll end up pairing here n there until I get the best match. At the end of the day, I'll have clothes covering my bed. Haha..

5. My frens would say that I have "lala" clothing taste. I wouldn't deny that entirely but one thing for sure... My fashion taste has improved tremendously!!!

6. I can be very stingy at times but when I decide to spend, that's when I'll spend kau kau!!! The mind is a very powerful tool. Haha..

The "tag" asks for only 6 weird things. I would like to voluntarily add another 1...
7. I can be very indecisive at times. I have been brought up to behave in an accommodative manner so, i'm OK with almost anything n everything unless it rily goes against wat I like/want. Even when I'm on a job hunt now, I don't have a particular interest. Another way of saying is that I like too many things to choose just one. Come what may, n I'll try my best...

My victims are:
1. KHOO HAU CHUN
2. DEBBIE LEE
3. KHOO SUAN GUIK
4. MELISA LIM
5. VALERIE ONG

Guess what? I finished that tagged thing but stg went wrong n I lost the whole blog entry. I did copy it but somehow it's no where to be found n I'm in no mood to retype the whole thing. Shall do it the next time...

It seems that my "dearest" Hau Wei has tagged me for this 5 weird things about yourself. Well, I won't be listing them down now. Will do it sometime soon. Busy with interviews hahahaha...

More interviews...

I am getting calls from different unfamiliar numbers, asking me to attend interview sessions with the respective organizations. So far, I've got positions of business development exec, marketing exec, events coordinator, assistant event manager... I'm waiting for more calls to come...

Anyway, tmr's interview is the business dev exec 1 in Seri Kembangan. The position name sounds quite cool rite? In truth it is no differnt from a sales & marketing exec... It's called GTI, a career magazine publisher. I'll see how it goes tmr. However, even if the offer is good, the chance of me accepting it is rather dim cos its toooooo far away...

I have decided to decline an interview with OCBC bank for the position of customer service officer. I am still not prepared to work in a bank setting. So, there it goes.. Oh, I don think I'm accepting H_ _ _'s offer as well. I would like to step out into a new environment. To many, It may be a good place to start with cos its such a familiar area but I would like to try stg fresh n anew. Look forward to my future elsewhere...

What I am really hoping for is a position in GALAXY! What many may think of is the magazine but what I'm refering to is an event management organization which is in charge of huha concerts!!! Sounds cool rite? I totally agree... I don dare to put too much high hope on this job.. The higher I expect, the more I'll be disappoionted if I don get it...

Everything said n done...

Offered, yet again...

For the 2nd time, I was indirectly offered a job without me even realizing it. Today's interview was more like a talking session, "sharing" according to the interviewer. He was telling me from head to toe what my job was gonna be like, asking me to consider n think what am I actually looking for cos he's expecting a long term employee. Based on what he knows about previous fresh graduates, they come, they stay a few mths (max) n they leave... No commitment... Well, I'm thinking that the job may not actually fulfill my "cravings" but it will be a very good exposure to the working world, esp in the marketing area. Stability is the word. If I opt for a bigger organization, I'll probably get the challenging, creative environment that I'm looking for, but definitely not as stable as the educational line. THe pay... We hardly mentioned about the pay... THe thing is that I could feel that he knows I'm not gonna stay in the organization long or proabably wouldn't even consider taking the job offer. He said when he saw my CV, even without seeing me personally, he felt that I wouldn't take the job offer. From that I can conclude 2 possible reasons. It's either he felt that I wouldn't get the satisfaction from HELP or he felt that I deserve better. Haha... ANyway, I'm still waiting for other opportunities for now. I'm giving myself till this Friday. If there are no better offers than HELP, I'll stay with HELP for the next few months. At least, I wouldn't be so lost for the mean time...

At the same time, I'm considering to apply for management associate programs at OCBC... SHould I or should I not??!!

Missing you...

I'm finally admiting it, dear...

I'M SUPER SPOILED!

We've been spending so much time together through out the previous 2 months, practically everyday I would say... N now ur classes are officially starting tmr. It has only been a few hours n I'm missing u so much already... How am I to bare these few days until I see u again this weekend? (U better come back, I tell u...)

I hope that I'll get a job real soon to distract myself from thinking about u all the time.

I'm also hoping that our new environment doesn't separate us too far apart, u with Seremban n me with my working world...

Dear, I miss u sooooooo damn much!

Scam, it was, indeed..

It was a scam! Indeed a huge scam!

Okok... Calm down...

Probably it wasn't a scam to others but it was to me...

The name sounded so prestigious, so sophisticated but... heck! The job scope doesn't even go well with the name... A_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ T_ _ _ _ _ _ offered by N_ _ _ _ _ _ at M_ _ _ _ A_ _ _ _ _ II at Jln. Y_ _ K_ _ _ S_ _ _. I'm being "discreet" here, mind u...

The whole thing was actually direct sales all the way! I didn't earn a degree to do direct sales. I may sound a little too cocky here but... I deserve a better job. The job may offer me very good pay based on FULL COMMISSION n NO BASIC but I'm not interested. That's all I have to say...

Sayonara!

2nd interview...

I had my sudden & last minute 2nd interview today at my ex college in KL. I was suppose to go on a date with my darling dearest today until I got a phone call at 11.30am, requiring me to attend an interview at 2.30pm later on the day. Since I wanted to get it over n done with, i agreed to go for it. Sadly, I had to cancel out our date. My darling was nice enough to drive me there n accompany me through out the whole process (again... Love u dear...)

After lunch, I went to the office for the interview. I had someone who highly recommended me for the position. So, the people in there kinda know me. Haha.. (damn proud nae...) The interview was brief, i would say, cos the interviewer was in a rush for a meeting. I think they had deliberately squeezed me into her schedule cos I emailed my ... yesterday n I suppose it kinda pressured him to follow up on my job application. The interviewer said she'll probably notify me for a 2nd time interview. Well, I didn't get to discuss with her regarding the pay, renumeration etc. I don even know whether would they cover the costs for the transportation n travelling. I found out that my job involves moving about n travelling to schools to promote the education programs. Hmmm...

My ... said he would recommend me to another marketing company as well. So, if the interviewer today doesn't want me, I still have a chance at another place. Based on how I performed, I feel confident on my chances today though...

Comparing my 1st n 2nd job interview, darling suggested that I choose the 2nd job (that's if I get offered for both of them) cos the 2nd one looks more stable n established where else the 1st looks vague n unknown. I feel the same way too... However, I feel that the 1st job is more exposed n the job line involves more interesting projects while the 2nd involves only 1 content. I won't decide now cos ntg is confirmed so far...

I have a continuing interview for the 1st job tmr. Hope things go well. Even if I don wan the job in the end, at least passing through the interviews boosts my self esteem. Haha...

Toodaloo..

My first interview...

I attended my very first official job interview today - Tuesday (27/3/07) and it turned out quite well cos they asked me to return for the 2nd interview...

It was an "Apprentice trainee" position offered by an advertising n marketing company nearby KLCC. Location wise, I'm not very keen but I think the job is quite challenging & interesting. According to the person, the company caters to big companies such as Digi, TMnet etc. n they do things such as event management, campaigns, roadshows etc. Then she just roughly mentioned the pay, ranging from 1800 to 2500, depending on the education background n performance wise. Well, not bad for starters... Future prospects? Branch manager, project manager etc. Actually the whole thing is equivalent to a management trainee thingey...

I went to darling n may today - 2 bodyguards to escort me haha... I didn't know the place n the place looked weird. Very jam as usual... We managed to find the place n were invited in by a friendly receptionist. It was obvious that I was there for the interview cos I was dressed very formally while the other 2 were wearing jeans n t-shirts. The friendly guy was saying that i brought frens for emotional support. Err... Yes... I know with ppl accompanying me, it rily looks negative n portrays me as not indepedent... Wat the heck?! I wouldn't wana get lost... The receptionist also hinted that darling n may should leave the place unless they're there for the interview but who cares... they stayed on n we continued chatting till the interview started. Haha..

It was a mass interview session with 5 ppl per session. I went in with an advertising exec, supervisor, assistant manager a.k.a GM n a clerk (all bound to quite their previous jobs for this position). The interviewer was their HR manager, a very young lady. She has quite admirable skills, knows how to talk, bring herself about, joke n yet keep the atmosphere tense. Haha... Sure knows how to bombard our answers with tough questions. She just asked us to talk about ourselves, talk about our skills, n our goals in the coming 2 years. I was the 2nd person talking n started by telling my age. Then i told them that I was a fresh graduate in psych. I went on to eloborate wat psych was about untill she bombed me. Hahaha... She ask whether was I rejected alot previously. If not, y do i need to explain wat psych is about? I was like ... no?! I just replied that I wanted to link psych to this job. Haha... Then she asked if my friends n family were to criticize my negative points, what would it be? It took me a while before I answered n I said "my impulsivity". Sometimes I can be irrational n I allow my impulses to take over my logical senses... She also asked me how would i deal with negative conflicts? I told her all the crap about conflicts due to diff values etc. She said try answering from a day to day conflict, simple n straightforward. I just answered "I know it will not be easy but I'm willing to learn n try to cope".... That was all i said...

The interview lasted for about 35 minutes n she said there will be a 2nd n 3rd interview to come if we passed this level. When she asked when were we able to attend the next interview if we were chosen, everyone said anytime. I said "Friday" Tiao kae rite? Cos i have plans with darling tmr n plans with may on Thursday.. Hahahaaha... Later about 7pm, she gave me a call n told me that I passed the interview n the next session's on Thursday noon. Ok then.. I'll just give it another shot...

It was seriously a funny day cos I wasn't prepared for the interview (apperance wise). They called a day before to tell me n I had no clothes to wear. I do have a new suit but just the blazer n the skirt - no shirts to go with it. So after much contemplation, I wore my white catering shirt that I bought back at Bemidji which was much bigger my size. it looked messy on me. Thanks to the blazer, I looked good in the whole thing. Haha... I had no suitable bags to use so I used my moms. The bag was a not so quality one that the skin was peeling n it dirtied my shirt. Haih... I had no formal shoes so i wore my mom's 10 yrs ago polo shoes. On the outside, it looked ok but the sole was all sticky n icky n it was biji biji here n there. I had to wear like the panty hose material kinda socks. I ended up throwing the socks away cos the base was too yucky n sticky. Not only that I was leaving "shoe bread crumbs" wheneva I tried a new shoe on. Haih... I bought new clothes when I was at KLCC after the interview. I wanted to buy new heels too but my feet were aching (blister-ing) thanks to the old shoes that when I tried on new shoes, I couldn't differentiate whethere the discomfort was because of the previous pain or cos the new shoes were uncomfortable. Haih...

Well... thats how the day went. I wonder how will Thursday turn out to be....

My Love, My Valentine...

I know it's a little too long since Valentine's passed but I'm gonna blog about it anyway..

I missed last year's Valentine's with my darling dearest n I'm glad we're able to experience it together this year. Different from the previous times, we had dinner on the 13th of Feb. He told me that he booked a place at some bak kut teh shop in somewhere that he didn't know how to go. Hello... Klang has the best bak kut teh n how can he now know klang's way around. N he sooooo super knows that I'm not a big fan of bak kut teh... Well, I knew from the start we weren't eating bak kut teh but i played along - asking him wat's the place like? What am I to wear to a bak kut teh stall? Candle light dinner road side? Haha... He later dropped me a hint, saying that it's a place that we've both been to.

He drove to that "secretive" place uisng the NKVE highway. So, I guessed that we were probably going to 1u which in the case was correct n i kinda guessed the restaurant based on his clue. It was indeed, nonetheless, the famous "Italiannies".,, It wasn't the set kinda dinner cos hc said it'll be a waste of food considering that I won't manage to finish wateva's served. Haha... So we just ordered a side n a main. I ordered a pina colada with rum. I forgot that he didn't like the coconut taste in that drink n I couldn't fnish the drink. He had to drink that down for my sake. Haha.. Next... Pressie time!! When hc brought the box out, I could roughly guess wat was it already cos he has been dropping hints weeks before. N guess wat it was? It was a steel ring! How did I know? He asked me a few times wat was my ring size (indirectly n discreetly of cos)... He, however, surprised me when he wore the other half of the ring on his finger. I didn't expect him to buy a pair n neither did i expect him to be willing to wear a paired ring on his finger. Initially i wanted to wear on my right hand middle finger but he said no cos it meant engaged. So, the ring settled down on my 2nd finger instead. Hahaha...

What did I get for him? I got his present only on the 13th Feb at about 11.30am. After much contemplation, I finally decided to buy him a pair of Hush Puppies shoes - the one that he had longed for for the past 1 year. It wasn't cheap but it wasn't expensive either. For that quality, it's worth the value... One thing though... I wasn't sure whether I had buy the right pattern that he liked cos he only showed me once. So, when i passed the pressie to him I was too afraid that i had my eyes closed. But his reaction told me that I was correct. Phew... It would have turned out a disaster if it wasn't the 1 he liked... Glad..

He had prayers on the 14th. We didnt managed to go anywhere. So, we ended up watching Blood Diamond in Klang. Good movie! Too violent though...

THank u dear for the memorable time... Will always appreciate our love... We're gonna go through another rough ride when I start working but I believe with hard work n determination, we're gonna overcome the challenges n stay together through thick n thin. I have u in my future plannings n i want it so bad that I'll make sure it happens... *shy* LOVE YOU DEAR!

Chinese New Year Holidays coming to an end...

It is now the 8th day of CNY... n the whole celebration (by right) is gonna end in 1 week's time. Some has already started their work a few days ago but tomorrow will be the day where everyone is back at where they are suppose to be - be it workplace, school, college etc. I am still "rotting"... Until now, i have not attended any interview sessions. I do intent to.. Have applied for a few jobs online and am still waiting for their reply. Will be sending snail mails to respective employers as well...

Previously.. I thought I was going to specialize in the clinical field of psychology. I did a personality test and discussed with my career counselor, who suggested that I may not actually suit clinical or counseling, considering the way my personality report came out to be. After a long session of chat, he gave me new perspectives to think from and fed me with information about the working prospects for degree holders in psychology... As my ex-lecturer, i trust his counseling skills and experience. He suggested that I try my luck in marketing event management. Come to think about it, event management is an interesting and challenging job. It fosters a creative environment and provides opportunity of network building. It is worth giving a try anyway. He told me that he would personally recommend me to the director (in Help UC... Yes, it's back at where I started, the college that I had studied in)... I'll be seeing him tomorrow to pass him my documents. I guess the next step will be an interview. However, I'm not gonna be hanging only to this job opportunity. I'll still be waiting for other job opportunities, maybe things like PR or event management, preferably at nearer places which do not require too much petrol, toll or parking. Haha...

I understand that psychology is still at its baby level here in Malaysia but I believe that it's prospering, moving on to its toddler years. Yet, many misunderstands this field. This is what i find disappointing about... Then again, who is to be blamed? They are not the people in this field. THey are not obliged to understand this field. I may not even understand other fields as much as I think I do. So... no hard feelings... What people has misunderstand is that psychology is a field limited to counseling and counseling only, nothing else. The truth is psychology is a very very broad and general subject. As wat my brother's fren had said... it's something that is BSBH ("Bao sua bao hai" - a term from Money Not Enough)... Psychology is a scientific study of understanding human thoughts, behaviors and feelings. That's the basic definition of it. Almost every single thing in this world involves humans... human interactions, human communications etc. And as long as there are humans, psychology is always needed. So, we, as psychology graduates, can venture in almost, but not all, the jobs out there including marketing, HR, PR, social services, research, advertising, mass comm etc. Some have argued that human interactions is an accumulative skill attained over time. With experience, these skills are sure to come sooner or later. The thing is, why make it later? We have an advantage in this. I'm not saying that we can understand people with just a glance or a word or wateva not. It's just that we have learnt possible theories and explanations to events happening around us. We have learnt to be good observers, good listeners, to understand why people behave the way that they do... In a way, we have sped up our learning process and have attained skills that others may need 10 or 20 years down the road to acquire... OK.. I think i better stop my psychology "philosophy" here. It is of interest to me, but it may not to others. Like yesterday, I was very fascinated by hc's very very very super kuai cousin but hc found it normal n no big deal... Well... interests vary...

Hope to get some news on my job soon... Toodaloo!

Reliving this blog...

Welcome back, miss Chin Hun...

I shall not let this blog die. Thanks to Averdim, who so nicely encouraged me with his "almost" comment...

There are tonnes of updates, so i shall just briefly mention the things that I have done for the past 3 weeks:

- Volunteered at Malaysia Mental Health Association (MMHA)
Seriously, that was my first experience with adults who have mental health difficulties. Some of u may think that studying psychology, it should be the one of the core exposures that we have during the course but No... What we had was just theories n research. Never a direct contact with clients. If I wasn't at MMHA, I wouldn't have known that some of them were facing difficulties. They looked very very normal, just like any other people. Even until now, I have no idea wat are they down with. The person in charge said that it was total confidentiality. Well, I suppose unless I volunteer there long enough, I will find out sooner or later. So far I've only been there twice to bake cookies with them. I hope to prolong this experience of mine. It will definitely help with my opportunity in the clinical setting.

- Genting with Darling
Hehe.. THis was of course a sweet experience. Pak toh with him 4 years n that was our first trip together, just the both of us. Went there for 3 days 2 nights. Took our time. Played in the themepark - indoor and outdoor. It was fun despite the heavy fog. Different from a week before when i went to Genting where I could stand the weather by just wearing a spaghetti top, this time i had to use my BSU sweatshirt. It;s good news cos the sweater is so thick that Genting is the only place that I can use it. Probably Cameron n Frasers Hill as well. We wathed Death Note 2 there. I loved the movie. So interested in "L"'s character... Went into the casino. Yes! I'm old enough to enter the casino although they did insist on checking our ICs. Overall, it was a beautiful xperience...

- Grandparents house with darling...
If u guys were thinking about kin ka jiong, sorry to disappoint u but its not the way it appears to be. My darling dearest caught flu cos he wasn't used to the kampung's polluted air (thanks to my grand dad burning kulit kelapa hahahah...) Then he was fascinated to see roosters fighting among one another, cats killing rats, methods to make kuih bakul (my grandma uses the traditional china way to make it), wat else? Thats about it... My grandparents seemed to adore hc very very much, say he very kuai la, very quiet la, very helpful la etc. Even said that he wont' curi makan ask me not to worry hahaha... Thanks dear for accompanying me to a place that u weren't used to.. Love u o...

Thats about it so far.. further updates later...

Color, color, go away...

Seriously speaking, I don think I am ever fated with hair dye. The last time I highlighted my hair, it turned out to be a huge disaster. This time, I've again tried my luck & disappointment I have experienced. I just recently had my hair cut which I liked very much but the decision to color my black with slight dyed hair was, I guess, a wrong one because no one seemed to have approved my choice besides the IMU bunch.

What has been done has been done. There is nothing much that I can do now but wait for my precious black hair to regrow. I wish I could add some baja & water my hair to speed up the process... I can choose to redye but that will be the 3rd TIME already... The 1st color was bright golden yellow. I dunno y but the color that I chose wasn't even close. The 2nd color, the now color, as I mentioned is bright orange. Under different light brightness though, the color changes. Not much of cos, but it gets darker with less white light... At least, that's what I found out...

Anyway, since I can't fight it, I shall just live with it. I'm gonna go for serious interviews after CNY. I pray hard that my hair won't affect me much or else I have no choice but to cut or dye the whole head....

The last time I vowed never to dye my hair & I violated my own vow! I seriously will never consider dying my hair again. People usually say, once bitten, twice shy. I'm already been bitten TWICE! So, I've learnt enough lessons to never repeat this stupid mistake of mine.. Mark my words...

Missing ice hockey...

I MISS ICE HOCKEY!

Home Sweet Home

Miss Chin Hun Gun is back in town! I arrived at KLIA at 8am on 28th Dec 2006.

I wanted to surprise my family. So i told them that my flight was at night instead of in the morning n i had Hc fetching me from the airport. The whole surprise was ruined when my brother saw hc's car on the way to my parents' office. Next thing u know, my mom surprised my back by knowing that I was coming for them. But the cool thing was that my dad n other siblings didn't know. Haha...

I'm home finally after being away for a whole year. Time just flew through. Who would've guessed that I've unofficially graduated (only as an undergraduate)? Then again, I'm not the only who has cos most of my friends have already started working...

It's year 2007... What are plans for now? I'll probably volunteer at this place called Malaysia Mental Health Association, that's if they're willing to accept me. I guess that would be a good place for me to start, a place where I can get a good grasp of the prospect of Psychology in Malaysia. I plan to rest all the way until CNY, then be my mom's assistant in my dad's place till my graduation in May. I'll only start my serious job in June, that's if where ever I plan to work is willing to hire me.

Truthfully, I'm not all that prepared for the society out there. I do enjoy studying n if i were given a choice, I would opt to continue studying. But it's probably better if i slow down just a little bit n reorganize my steps ahead before I make any further drastic decisions. I do intend to continue grad school at some point of my life. It's just a matter of wat I wanna specialize in...

That's the update about my future planning for the mean time...

Yes, for those of u who are still wondering... Miss Chin Hun has indeed PUT ON WEIGHT! Practically everyone who has seen me so far has said that I'm fatter now... SIgh... Continue laughing or teasing all u want... I do intend to lose all those excess fats u know? Haha... Or maybe I should just put it this way. It's normal to put on weight when one goes overseas. I'm not saying that those who didn't are abnormal haha...

I've been trying to get use to life back in Malaysia for the past few days. I'm over jetlagging. When i stepped into my newly renovated house, it felt so "strange" as in a stranger. I had to get use to the whole new house environment. Not only that, I had to adjust myself to the sharing family lifestyle. No more the individual, all by myself way of living. Sharing rooms, toiletries, etc. Well, I use to have things to myself back in US. hahaha... Time to change girl...

As for driving, I'm still trying to get use to the "driving style" here. The place that I stayed in US was a quiet n peaceful town, no jams, no potong sana sini type of driving. So, when Hc drove me back from the airport, I practically reminded him to be careful for like 5 times?! Haha... Which of cos he found annoying... When i practiced driving the other day, I had the tendency to drive on the right lane. When i crossed the road, i didn't feel that i had to look out for cars cos in B-town, the cars watch out for pedestrians n not the other way round. Haha.. THere's tiny itsy bitsy things that I need to adjust to but it'll be fine...

I guess that's all for now... Will continue updating.. I hope...

BEAVER HOCKEY - MY PRIDE IN BSU...

Days in Bemidji are limited...

While waiting for my lappy to uninstall SPPS 15.0 in order for me to install SPSS 13.0, here I am, updating my long foregone blog...

My days in Bemidji are limited! Dunno should be happy or sad... I'm sooo looking forward n excited to going back but at the same time, I realize how much I'm gonna miss this place, the life here, the ppl here, n of cos, the student life! B-town has so many of my memories. I felt like as if I've stayed so long n done so much here even though I've only been here for a year.

It's officially winter now. Reminding me of when I just came in Dec 2005.. It just started collecting snow about 2-3 days ago. N the weather is horrible! From 2 celcius, it went down straight to -14 celcius n its currently at -22 now. The air is superbly dry. My face, esp my nose n ears, feels like its cracking n peeling off everytime I walk outside. How can these ppl survive this weather? I wonder how did I survive during the beginning of the year...

I'm not sure whether I'm gonna miss the weather here but i defnitely appreciate the sun now. Maybe not so much anymore when I go back... gonna have tonnes n tonnes of food, fun n friends, quality time with bf n family when i go back.. hehe...

Will be going to Chicago before I go back home. But before that, buried in assignments n finals! Haih... Bersusah-susah dahulu, bersenang-senang kemudian... Not bad... my BM is still good... hahahahah (no, wait! Seriously, my BM has deteriorated to the extreme!!!)

Chiaoz for now.. Till I blog again...
