Finals are upon us!
They're not as scary as the ones in Singapore so no need to be worried for me, thanks (if you were). I've only got one paper left and it's a take home exam, so all I've to do is type the answers the questions on the exam, print, and hand it up anytime before Friday 3-something pm. :)
Ok being the bitchy and angsty person I am, I actually started this post cause I wanted to vent about this girl who lives on my floor (HAHA OK I JUST RE-READ THAT LINE. no she does not actually live on MY floor in my room, but on the same floor as me. many many doors away, thankfully). GARGH! Two days ago, on the night before class the next day, she CALLED me to ask stupid questions. Why call? Huh, WHY?!? Can't you tell I'm Asian!!?!!? It only makes me feel awkward and it forces me to respond immediately, wasting my otherwise productive 'procrastinating' time.
her: "hey.. do you know if tomorrow's class is going to be shorter than usual?"
me: ".. I'm not sure." (thinking: it's our freaking last class, why the hell would it matter if it's shorter than usual!?! you should already have that time blocked out of your schedule for the normal class anyway. even if it was shorter, it's up to the prof to end the class so it's not like you can plan anything important in advance)
her: "ok.. have you finished your essay [to be handed up tomorrow]?"
me: "hahaha no."
her: "ok, that makes me feel better. have you finished your readings?"
me: "O_O oh yeah crap i forgot there were readings. nope i haven't finished them either"
her: "ok good that makes me feel better."
I WAS LIKE. WTF!?!? IT MAKES YOU FEEL BETTER THAT WHAT? THAT YOU ARE NOT THE SLOWEST IN CLASS? OR THAT SOMEONE ELSE IS JUST AS SLOW AS YOU?! Either way that's a damn bad thing to say. Plus, it's not even like I'm best buds with her anyway. AND IT MATTERS SHIT TO ME WHETHER YOU FEEL BETTER OR WORSE. If any one of my close friends in Singapore said that, we'd both go "HAHAHAHA DIE MANNNNNNNNN... HOW?" but since this is not the case with her, I am left with a frown on my face and a quizzical downward turning of my brow.
Then just now she did it again, but on facebook so it was better because I didn't have to hear her stupid voice and sustain my seething rage during the pauses inbetween her asinine remarks.
her: "have you started your Final assignment?"
me: (BEING VERY SNEAKY THIS TIME, I LIED.) "no"
her: "good to know :) "
[edit/ in retrospect, I should've said "YES I'VE FINISHED IT. A WHOLE 24 HOURS AGO, ACTUALLY. EAT THAT SUCKAHHHH" dammit! I'll go see if she's online now]
Again, WTF RIGHT?! Biatchhhh. After that very short conversation, I promptly closed the fb chat window. What an idiot. But lest you think I'm being irrationally ticked off, I'll have you know that I have other reasons to not like her. Seeing as how none of you would know her even if I were to reveal her name, I won't bore you with her other act--clever-bo-clever escapades.
Now on to the brighter side:
I'm coming home in a matter of hours! (2-digits/less than a 100!) I like how I have all these little signs that indicate that The End Is Nigh Upon Us:
-the ink levels in my uniball signo pens are all below the first/top grip line
-the shampoo and soap I bought in bulk is running out just nice, with enough to last me the remaining few days
-my ream of notebook paper/(OMGIFORGOTWHATWECALLITBACKHOME.)FULLSCAP just finished
OK FINE so there are only 3 reasons but they are enough to remind me that I'll be going home soon, since I use all of them everyday. :D
I don't know if I'll miss my roommate though. She's been a good roommate but I wouldn't say she was my best friend or anything. In fact, some days we hardly say a word to each other, not because there was any animosity but because.. there was no need for conversation. I describe her to friends as being like a sibling. You're not total enemies with the person but you're not like HTHT confidants either (ok well, at least that's the way it is with my siblings). She actually removed my from her friends list on facebook hahahahahahahaahaha but we're still on talking terms as per normal. Plus, I'd hate to be one of those people who let their virtual social networking be the judge of their real social life anyway. I'm kind of uncertain about how we'll say goodbye and leave for the summer though. Hug? Handshake? Wave and smile? or just leave? Do I have to get a gift??!?! :S All of the above sounds so awkward. I want to wish her well cause I know she's having some family problems and she's going to continue back in Hawaii, and she's also been a really good first roommate to live with (we had ZERO arguments and didn't even need to go through roommate agreement forms and blablabla) but it's strange cause I know she's not one to respond well/kindly to such touchy-feely sentimental crap.
Aiyah, I'll see how it goes. (she also holds false claims that I sleep talk in Chinese, which is so mind boggling and untrue that I am willing to downgrade the hug to a wave + smile)
Anyway, to end off,

I haven't been home in a while and have had to put up with a fatty, politically incorrect and messed up culture; I'M ALLOWED TO BE PATRIOTIC, DAMMIT!
SEE YOU ALL SOON! (and not in the fake quick-i-want-to-end-this-msn-convo-and-i-know-i-won't-actually-be-meeting-up-with-you-or-seeing-you-so-i'm-just-using-up-all-the-different-forms-of-saying-'goodbye'-to-make-you-stop-talking-to-me way, but in the REAL I-hope-to-actually-see-your-face-with-all-it's-accompanying-body-parts-and-limbs-in-real-life-soon-soon-soon-please way!) :D
