Two down, two more to go.

I'm in the library again pulling an all-nighter. One assignment is due tomorrow and blood hell, writing 2,000 words has never been a pain in the ass before. Just updating so I can get some rest. Nothing exciting happened. The end. :P

I need to tell my Dad that I love him

There are days where I go to sleep crying not because I miss Amir. I miss my parents. I miss my mom, even though we squabble a lot. I miss my dad the most because everyone knows I'm my daddy's girl.

Although...today's feeling is different. I'm shaken up with the thought of it. I'm crying because I'm scared and thankful at the same time. I'm glad that my dad is okay. I'm glad my dad wasn't there.

Tourists die in Yemen explosion - BBC


My dad was in Yemen a guest lecturer to teach a short course for the Management student in the local university. I am so thankful he was already back home when it happened, he got back on the 12th of March. 3 days before the explosion. I need to tell my Dad that I love him. I want to be home now.

My prayers and condolences goes to the family and friends of the victims.

انّا للہ و انّا الیہ راجعون

The most evil one has passed.


Last weekend @ St. Albans with Jenna
Spring is officially here. The weather's super awesome, I am undoubtedly enjoying the weather. I'm feeling loads better and recovering from that nasty (possibly viral) fever / throat infection I had since last week. It's a good thing I stocked up on meds before I came here, so HOORAH to that. Voice is still slightly raspy and coughing once in a while but definitely better.

Last week was full of meetings and assignment finishing as usual. I swear, I should have just packed and camped in the LRC (aka library) every night. Handed up the most confusing and difficult assignment out of the bunch. So BYE STRATMAN! SEE YOU IN MAY FOR EXAMS! One down. Three more to go:

Managing Media & Comm. - Coursework 2 - 20% - Due 24th March 2009 [90% progress]
Global Marketing Ethics & Culture - Coursework 1 - 40% - Due 26th March 2009 [10% progress]
Market & Social Research - Assignment C - 15% - Due 31st March 2009 [50% progress]

Can you tell I am so ready for hols?

Made me feel better

The past few days has been awesomely sunny and warm. I'm loving it. The only thing I don't love is that I am totally and utterly sick (hurts when I laugh, hurts when I sneeze kinda thing). And I'm inside because I'm finishing up my assignment (woot?)

Imagine how sick I was in December while doing assignment, 2 weeks before going back for Xmas hols...seeing a pattern here?? I think I'm allergic to meetings and assignments.

BUT

Karen from MakeUpandBeautyBlog made me feel so much better when I saw this post!

Click on the image and scroll down on the website to see! :D

p/s to self: CMON FIE! YOU CAN DO IT! Just a paragraph more!

Pick me up and take me away from this emo-fest



"I Am"

I'm an angel, I'm a devil
I am sometimes in between
I'm as bad it can get
And good as it can be
Sometimes I'm a million colors
Sometimes I'm black and white
I am all extremes
Try figure me out you never can
There's so many things I am

[Chorus]
I am special
I am beautiful
I am wonderful
And powerful
Unstoppable
Sometimes I'm miserable
Sometimes I'm pitiful
But that's so typical of all the things I am

I'm someone filled with self-belief
And haunted by self-doubt
I've got all the answers
I've got nothing figured out
I like to be by myself
I hate to be alone
I'm up and I am down
But that's part of the thrill
Part of the plan
Part of all of the things I am

[Chorus]

I'm a million contradictions
Sometimes I make no sense
Sometimes I'm perfect
Sometimes I'm a mess
Sometimes I'm not sure who I am

[Chorus]x2

Of all the things I am
Sometimes I'm miserable
Sometimes I'm pitiful
But that's so typical of all the things I am
Of all the things I am

Post dedicated to Woozy

Because he thinks I need to grab my hands on more emo songs. :P Sorry lah little boy, I'm already quite well on my own. Haha.

This song makes me want to rush through March and go home so I could see Amir. :( Memang sangat rindu.

I should stop listening to emo songs

I really should. Especially when my assignments are due in 2 weeks. I'm currently in zombie mode; I even want brraaaaaiiiiiinnnns (of a smart person). I've been telling myself and chanting, 3 more weeks till I go home. I think I represent the population of BA Marketing students quite well by saying 'I can't wait for March to end!'.

I haven't been doing anything much. To Pinky & Denise, I went for the MAC Hello Kitty launch thing for the UK! :D It was so much fun and as usual, I bought stuff that I don't need. To everybody else, I have a wall of photos that I look at when I'm in one of my moods. It's theraputical, try it.

Snippets of things that I've done:

Hello Kitty man :D

Camwhoring with new contacts

My very lovely wall. Yes Elaine, that's you.

Charity movie screening for an assignment.

Now it's time to sleep. Another somewhat long day ahead. In the words of the wise Karl Randall, 'SIGH!'.
