Summary Of What Happened Last Month...

I don’t know why, but I felt obliged to write what has happened in the last month. Somewhat of an online diary...think maybe, I love writing but I don’t know what to write, so I’m writing anything here so as to improve my English and improving my “style” for writing perhaps? Oh heck...I’m not sure myself why but...I’ll just continue ok? I won’t be mentioning again what I’ve written previously (like my fight with my girlfiend) since I already wrote that…so here it is:


I’ll start with what happened yesterday, which was the 1st of March, Saturday. Last night I went for UM’s (University Malaya) “Malam Emas” at PICC (Putrajaya International Convention Centre). It was a huge place, but a bit far to reach and isolated. The place was beautiful and clean; I especially like the smoking zone because it was an outdoor room that was in the middle of the insides of the building. You can see the sky but it was dark since I went there at night... it’s like an outdoor garden surrounded by glass… very peaceful though...The hall was lovely, big and spacious…the food was okay, some of the performances were entertaining, but I was a bit bored. Probably because I’m sitting with the lecturers with me mum and sis...I wanted to sit with me ex-students but I heard that they are scattered since their sitting with their friends mostly. Got to meet a few of them though…but I felt guilty leaving me sis alone...so I didn’t, I sat and talk with me sis...but at the end of the night I met most of of my students...well, a few from most classes but most from B1...and it was fun...we took pictures (I even wore a tiara crown from one of me students and all of ‘em were taking photos...I got a bad feeling those pictures would circulating around later...but hey, I just wanted to have fun with me friends/students.


Friday last night me and me group had a short gaming session. Surprisingly fast but fun anyway. Check out my new blog, its on the link...I’m writing a story about the current game we’re playing in the new blog...


My network card went up in smoke a few days back...bummer...probably will buy one next month or so when I have the dough.


Met up with some of my ex-students a week or so before “Malam Emas”...I just got bored and wanted to meet them...I met a few, but mostly my B1 class also. They were fun to hang out with...they had a presentation coming up so I didn’t bother them that much...just chat a bit here and there... about 2 hours later, I came back home...wanted to go and see their presentation on the following week but my lunch break was a bit late so I couldn’t make it. In case you’re wondering...I was a part-time tutor for about 2 months at UM while trying to find a permanent job...Had a blast with the students and...I guess I got attached to them. :)


Had a bad cold for about a week or so...probably due to the fact I haven’t been in an air-conditioned room for months...and when I started working (still in probation actually...for about 6 months probation), I was seated directly under the “aircond”...so...that’s explain the cold...”not used to your new habitat yet” a friend said...hahaha...I guess so...


Let’s see...what else? I've got in contact with one of my classmates when I was in form 5...added her on facebook but we didn’t talk then...it was after this application, where you have to choose from a list of one word to describe any random friend, did she contact me through face book...so we chat a bit...planning to meet up with her but her grandma is sick...so probably later. She reminded me about my grandpa when he was still around the house. A quite man but fun to talk to...He’s the most quietest and nicest guy I’ve ever met...but unfortunately, I didn’t spend much time with him when he was around the house. And before you know it, he passed away...I remember that day because it was on my 18th birthday. My mum woke me up, told me grandpa passed away downstairs...went down, so him lying on the floor...what a shock...but he looked peaceful though…I’m glad…but I did regret for not spending time with him...I sometimes often ask now and then from any of my aunties or me mum how was grandpa like in the past. Miss him much...anyways, I told her the story about my grandpa (well, through sms anyway...short version of it) and tell her to take her time, we can meet anytime but spend more time with your grandma as much as possible. She thanked me...I must say that felt good :)


Well, I started the blog at the end of February...but what else?


Oh, I met with an old friend...a friend from my diploma days...he was my classmate...he’s now studying in New Zealand, but came back during the summer...He said he wanted to contact me but I changed me number a while back and couldn’t contact me...he got my number from my girlfriend. We met at the Curve, and talked awhile…about how’s he doing, have you seen any of our classmates, what have you been up to and all that. From his blog ( he's Shah...on my link...check it out) I read that he’s been doing bungee jumping, going on stage to perform and all that...and I was like “wow”...he’s doing quite a lot of interesting stuff and I envied him a bit...but at least his having a great time. I felt touched that he said he has to meet me before going off...to me, he’s a close friend...well...most friends in not all, I always consider them as close friends...but when he said that...wow...it’s just...can’t find a better word than just feeling grand :) ... when we said goodbyes, I wanted to hug him...but I didn’t...don’t know why, but I didn’t...it’s not being ashamed to hug him there in the public...but...I just didn’t...then on the way back...I felt...damn, should’ve hug the him, I’m gonna miss that bugger...while driving, I remembered all the fun stuff that me, him and our classmates and seniors did...those were the days...


Oh yeah, went out with me cousins and my girlfriend for a somewhat of an informal farewell party...she’s going back to Australia to continue her studies...she also came back a couple of months ago during her holidays...fun too...went to the Curve as well...wanted to “belanja” her (to give her a treat), but I was broke...felt really bad and guilty about it but we enjoyed ourselves. My cousins became fast friends with my girlfriend a while back, so that’s why I brought her along.


Had me convocation early of February, got to meet up with those that I haven’t stayed in contact with...currently I’m keeping touch with only 3 of my classmates albeit not as often as I would like...work and all that...


Tried to stop smoking on the 1st of February but didn’t, failed on my first day on the job...another bummer...


Chinese new year... a bit dull...but had time to spend with my 3 degree friends...managed to went “raya” to one of their houses then had to rush off do something...can’t remember what exactly...


Got my first paycheck, and gone it went...almost all of it...payed bills & all that...it was expected but I didn’t expect it would be THAT much...probably after a few more months I’ll get the hang of it...


Well...that’s all about February 2007 ...


Today was a bit weird...had a dream my girlfriend proposed to me...she gave me a silver ring with a purple diamond strip in the middle...weird huh? Then after i woke up, went for a wedding.one of the family’s friends went we went for Haj...coincidently the theme was purple...and while walking beside the road on the way to their house...a jeep passed by very fast and a pebble hit me glasses...quite hard but no damage done to me specs...but imagine if didn’t wore any...thought it was a sign or an omen...but nothing happened...yet...went home...open me laptop, open Ms Words...start writing my next post which is entitled “Summary of what happened last month” so I started off... :D (the eternal loop…lol). Planning to go to a cyber café to post this...and while I’m at it, check me mails and stuff. That’s all...


Oh shit...just remembered...I’m still drafting my introduction post...damn...I’ll get on to it as soon as possible…


Cheers!
