that I have abandoned blogging.

Well, what can I say, been so occupied with assignments and stuffs lately that I hardly even have time to stay at home to relax and chill, let alone exercise during my free time! I miss going hiking and also morning walks because I’ll be sleeping like a pig to even wake up for an exercise.

I’m nearing to the end of my first semester, hurray but as the usual thing that comes along towards the end, deadlines to be met and also miscellaneous matters to attend to. I now have 3 cars at home to choose from to drive out, with most of my family members being in Taiwan at the current moment. I’m slowly and surely catching up with my studies, not to say that I’ve been a laggard but my head seems to be still up in the clouds.

Anyhoo, I’ve done something I never thought I’ll be doing.

Gaming.

Yes gaminggggggggggggggggg! As in feeding evil cybercafe’s with money that kinda gaming.

Left4Dead at several Netcity’s in Penang to be exact. -.-”

Well let’s see, I started a week ago and now after a week, I’ve spent around accumulatively 10 hours on gaming. In a way it’s really a stress relief therapy because being a survivor or an infected and killing the enemy just feels so good nyahahahahahaha!

But overall I think the best part about gaming is, playing with my classmates. Most of the time it would be from 6 to 8 of us, and we’ll kill each other in the game and seriously it feels damn good. Although, I prefer being a zombie and ambushing the survivors. Hunter Hunter Hunter, my favouriteeeeeee! Anyone up for Left4Dead call me yea, and I’m not very good in it, so don’t go all hissy on me.

Other than being stressed with assignments, gaming for stress relief and making USM my next home, life has been pretty peaceful although hectic. I’ve learned to feel what it’s like being an adult with commitments and responsibilities, like controlling my spendings, taking care of Lim Ah Meow, doing house chores, keeping everything in my life in control etc. It’s alot of work but I’m learning a great deal from it.

So that’s about what’s happening so far, and I was a unpaid labor at PISA last week for The Star Education Fair, for KDU la of course. Honestly speaking, I thought that the broadcast journalism activity we offered there was kinda, lame. The response was low and the camera kept dying, and the stupid Mac kept hanging! And there was no tripod so we had to carry the video camera all the time, but one thing kept me happy there, which was Pleo!

It’s so cuteeeeeeeee and I told the Pensonic personnel that I wanna throw Lim Ah Meow out and bring Pleo back instead. And the personnel told me, she’ll be bringing Pleo to KDU’s open day this month! So I might just kidnap Pleo and bring it to class, who knows? For those who doesn’t know what’s Pleo, it’s a robotic dinosaur pet with motion sensors all around it’s body and an infrared sensor on top of it’s nose, and it acts like an actual pet. Without the peeing and pooping of course.

So yea, that’s how I spend my weekend. Unpaid labor but I had fun. One of the funniest moments was seeing my friends and Hugo, who kept joining the Spin and Win contest. Basically, all you need to do is pay RM 1.50 and you’ll get a copy of the day’s Star newspaper and a magazine, be it Galaxie, Flavours, Kuntum or Shanghai with an entry form for the Spin and Win contest. My friends actually bought several copies just for the form resulting my little tiny counter bombarded with newspaper and magazines, it looked like some small scale recycling counter!

Some of my friends actually won two iPod shuffles, Firefly tickets to Medan, GSC movie vouchers and KDU notebooks and calculator. I spun the damn wheel and what did I get? A KDU calculator and a KDU notepad. Sedih sial.  So I tutup kedai and went back to my counter and play with Pleo while Hugo was aiming for the iPod shuffle for me but luck wasn’t on our side, we didn’t get it.

Let’s see what shall I blog next, probably my Langkawi trip although it’s long overdue. But still better late than never!
