Well it's time to welcome in the new year! New life, new resolutions etc etc... ok first up. Many people had no idea bout the traditional 12 days of Christmas so I decided to whip, and rip one of the net for all to read. Here is one of it...

That's all for now on the 12 days. As by right, it has already ended with the Epiphany Celebration yesterday. (Even I should already start clearing the Christmas Decor at home. Hmm..... ) SO.... the new year has begun, a lot of planning to be done. I have already been asked to plan something new for Easter (which is in a month and a half's time) Whoa! its barely 2009 and people are already into Easter. I really wonder when people will start to slow down the pace. As it is Chinese New Year is on the 25 and 26th of this month. What more Easter! Atop all this, my Godbro's wedding is on Valentine's (unlucky me!) and atop that, I have to start helping a church mate with the children's choir for Easter. OK! That's entirely a handful haha.... Apart from all that, I'm happy the new year has begun. Hopefully I can set a new challenge for myself in a lotta stuff, some from work and some at church and some also at home and not forgetting personally =D
.... gonna be a week since she left. Gah... the house is too quiet (except when I make a mistake and mum yells) *sigh* Yes she has left... to be a doctor, her lifelong dream and now she is halfway around the globe enjoying pizza and pigeons and not to forget the doggie..... and me............ I ... nevermind... I'm just having a tough time getting used to the fact that she is not here and truthfully, I'm just holding back my tears. I'm just putting and diverting all of that into my finals.
So far since she left, mom has been re-shuffling this and re-shuffling that... and the amount of stuff I found too. Well not just mine but sisters and dad's stuff too. WHOA! Things I didn't even realise I had bought. So clearing all has taken 4 days, so now I've moved into sis's room. But I'm having a hard time, sleeping on her bed, I can barely sleep.... if I moved a little bit it would creak... and that my friends, is creepily scary. I just hope and I can get a new bed before this bed decides to say, "HEEVE-HO!!!!" and BANG! I'm on the ground. XD
Yeaps the hols have begun for me. But it is not exactly that a holiday for me cause, I have to prepare myself for te next term. As it is not only the final project but also an individual thingy.
Haiz.... a lot to do and it's also good at least it will keep my mind of worrying for my results. I really don't want to think bout but hell, I'm still thinking bout it........!!!!!
But eitherways here's my list of to-do during the hols.
Paintings which have been left untouched since September 2006- mostly flowers, hopefully I will make an effort to do on lanscape.
Pre-production - storyline, roughboard, character developement and story treatment.
Gaia commisions- gah.... I haven't finish 2 more, must finish that this weekend =P.
So far so good.... hopefully it doesn't add on. I want to go to the movies but can't to T_T all my classmates balik kampung, my sister is preparing for her A2 finals.... and mother to busy with her now-loading assignments. So, that leaves poor Meru all alone. *sits in the corner and sniff sniff*
" I want to be 19 forever", she said. And the other said, " Live together, die together..."
.... And she got her wish in the early hours of her birthday morning, 1st of May 2007. Reshwen, Kosheela and Eashwary- my juniors from SMK Convent, Klang, my sister's batch, died in a car crash on the Federal Highway after a pre-celebration birthday party. Among the three of them, I only knew Reshwen, well that was when I was in form 5. Reshwen was tall and my sis was short, so I used to tease them both well for the heck of things.
At first, the news of the accident didn't hit me hard until my sis told me the details and of the people invovled. I was shocked, Reshwen was a pretty, sweet girl and to have her life end like this is something tragical. It made me wonder on how things that we say can affect out lifes later on. For instance, Reshwen said that she wants to be 19 forever and thus she live till then and her best friend, Kosheela had stated from their school days, "Live together, die together" and so they did.... and the poor victim, who died along was Eashwary. Currently I'm thinking of what Reshwen's boyfriend, Jagdeep, the driver would feel, think or be like when he wakes up from coma to find out he had caused 3 girls death and one of which is his sweetheart.
My opinion from this is always to watch what you say at all time, cause you never know when death will creep up behind you and make your wishes come through even though you meant it as a practical joke.
Well that's all for now. Back to self-thoughts... and work of course ^^
.... I don't think I've done my best. I look at the movie and I can really tell that it is a disappointment.
Yes, I'm definately talking about my group project. Who am I to kid? I can tell that it is bad, not just bad, terrible is the best word to describe it. The panel is so right... it has no appeal at all.... the animating is bad especially my scene - the indian dance. Gah... I'm a bad leader, I couldn't even hold on to the end.....
Well this was supposed to be posted yesterday but was kinda too busy to do so. And so I decided to do it in place of waiting for some emails to come in.
Okay~ so it has been a 3 crazy weeks for me. Or rather, a lil rush. Let's see, I joined my new class in LKW 3 months back and was plunged straight into group project and my, my, was it smooth sailing in the beginning for all but it started to get bitchy toward .... now? And yea, tomorrow, yes tomorrow is the preliminary presentation for our animation and what do I have.... a missing scene and unfinished sound clip! >_> gah...
Best part was that the LAN people had to come this week. A pratically good chance for everybody to find a suitable excuse not to turn up in college which of course included my groupmates- one sick and the other so-called-outstation. But praise the Lord! Monday- Lects busy so I could concentrate on my compilations; Tuesday- class postponed to Wenesday as a mock class for the LAN people; Wenesday- class CANCELLED! LAN people realised there was no need to have evidence that LKW was actually doing a good job (in comparison to what they apparently heard from the Sem 3 and 4 students)[stupid, snob, girls]; Thursday- Holiday!!!!!! Terima kasih Yang di-pertuan Agong and congrats too~~~
Cool~ So i have to say, yesterday was actually the most relaxing day I have had in 3 long months, considering the amount of preasure and frustration the 2 men in group gave in the past 2 weeks ... we can say 2 weeks la.... XD
What did I do? HAHAHA you will not believe it but maybe coming from a person like me, I suppose you can expect that kinda things happening around me and a few other people.
Well here's how it goes from the very beginning, we left college; me, Adam and Sara, left college, went to Subang and had lunch with another couple of friends in KFC and then shot of to our main destination- TRU| Toy's R Us, Subang Parade. Hohoho Plushie ATTACK!!!!
TAG WAR!!! But nothing beats the fun we had with double barrell shot guns *w* . We were utmost lucky not have gotten caught in the store for filming our lil fun XD. Most probarbly the vid will be up in YouTube for me to post here T^T.
Rights~~ That's all for now. Better get beck to work and also prepare myself for 'execution' tomorrow.
