Told ya, this is just a 'semi-hiatus'... haha~ still, it took more than 2 days since the last time I went online(that's okay, I'm used to this already). Hurm, was just reading one e-mail, sent by my cousin who's in Exeter for her phd. She was using this weird but cute 'chinese+malay' accent(the 'Afdlin Shauki's along' version) all thru her email that she sent to all of her cousin. I guess it has sumthing to do with the recent celebration of Chinese New Year. One phrase caught my eyes, and I wanted to share it with ya , "Internet itu adalah amat keji". (direct trans: "That internet is so 'keji'?" yikes~ I should revise my english translations... basically it means something to be despised of~)
Ah... at my new 'home'... I'm staying over with my two x-coursemates(both are working in our lecturer's company) and a Chinese-Muslim senior who is doing her master. I'm staying outside campus... and my house has no internet connection. So far I'm still surviving, except the fact that I missed all of my online friends(and of course daily doses of Arashi wholesome goodies). I just met my supervisor this morning(the one who's in charge with monitoring my final year project), and I began to have a clearer optimism on how to get my studies done. She's very supportive though strict~ the most important thing is she knew what she expecting from me, and she also realized my own potentials. Thank you so much!!! This afternoon I have a meeting with members of the faculty(dunno who tho) and I had to give reasons for my 'slackingness' in the last semester. Ah well, better now than later. I'm very happy that I got past thru my phase of depressions, whatever happened, I know I have pple supporting me, and most importantly, I believed in myself.
If everything goes well, I will also give English tuitions for PMR and SPM preparation students. Wah, first time I'm earning my own money. I think I'll only be tutoring during weekends, so the pay won't be as much as a good pay, but still... English is my favourite subject, and after watching Gokusen, I feel like I want to at least teach once in my whole lifetime. I don't know how much I'll fare though. I never felt the need to take up English tuitions when i was in school, so I don't have any idea on English tutoring. These students might be even more advanced than me! One more thing, I might 'yap' non-senseically... and get out of topic. yikes... think positive thoughts~
Another thing, I will seriously try to learn Japanese now... at least later I can do something useful abt it... esp for my friends... later I can hog Toshi into properly learning Eigo... or I might just laugh at him~ "what? Super soul~ Talking more must?!!!! it was written by u, no wonder, dear!"<--in Japanese of course~
Wish me luck, minna!!! I think my mind will start functioning properly beginning today...
