Relocated

I hardly update this blog and when I update, entries are getting shorter and shorter and I don't really have an exciting life. Thus, I don't see the point of maintaining this blog!

But, I like to write short entries, so I've opted a more micro and minimalistic site! You can find me at Rene's Rant Book

Good luck?

I am finally blogging on this blog! haha Malaysian Open is over and it was indeed a very hectic week for me. It was suppose to be my semester break and I've spent the entire week going up and down to KL. It's either KLCC or the Bukit Jalil. 2 years worth of KL trip, all in one week haha. And when everything ended, I can feel the lethargic-ness attacking me.

See this autographed tennis ball? It actually brought my friends and I a lot of laughter haha.

   

 

We call this Kei ball because it was signed by Japan No.1 Nishikori Kei. and whenever we're in an awkward situation, we'll chant or talk about Kei ball and something funny will happen. And then we'll laugh laugh laugh and awkward no more! 

Also, the other day I brought this Kei ball to uni as a good luck charm and pheww my law presentation with the other Irene turned out really well. I din feel like I've put in a lot of effort for the research and yet we manage to pull it through smoothly. Some luck from Kei ball? Hmmmm

thanks for the experience

Checked my law paper's results and what a relief!!! I didn't do super well but I got a credit!! wheeee. It dragged by GPA down but it was still slightly higher than my expectation. See, art students can do law subjects too! haha

Taking this law subject has definitely opened my eyes. I've learned so much about my country's constitution, visited the Palace of Justice and Federal Court (highest court in Malaysia), met the Chief Justice before retiring, hear a short lecture by the deputy Chief Justice of Netherlands, and another lecture by a Federal Court judge, hear some anecdotes about wigs....

Very good experience indeed! Now I have another law to conquer! Journalism and the law, hopefully I'll do better here!

Blog not dead!

In case you're wondering what happened to me. I'm still alive! Haha I have too many blogs to update lately. Shoujiki Shindoi and my sports blog ∞ arena. For somehow who doesn't know much about sports, maintaining a sports blog that will be assessed is quite tiring. And not forgetting the weekly sports quiz.. Thank God I usually open my eyes when I go shopping. At least I can recognize some football players, their endorsements and their jerseys. And I've been following F1 since the season begin. Cricket, rugby? Give me a break!

So if you any sports tips, let me know ya!

no surprise

I think something's wrong with my brain? I'm not surprised if I turn (?) schizophrenic some day later.

Real you?

People often say "thats so not me!" or "that's not the real me" So what exactly is the real you? Foucault argued that there's no 'real' you, we are all just actors. I actually agree very much with what he said. We act differently in different situations, with power playing a role in it. Let's say that you're some seriously noisy/talkative and loud person. You walked into a library and kept really quiet. Does that means that the person in the library is not the real you? It's still you right? How is that fake you?

Tired tired, very tired!

What a day! I think I've walked at least 6km today haha. Japanese sensei had some errand to run so no class today. Took the train with my sister to KLCC and then walked to Pavilion to check out their Asakusa inspired 'Tokyo Street' which was opened yesterday. Talking about great timing heh. Pictures and others some other time ya? Lazy to upload it right now. Or you can check out my Facebook account for it.

After Tokyo Street, we continue our journey to Lot 10 and Sungei Wang. I am starting to feel all that fatigue on my calf whenever I stop walking. Walked walked walked and take the train back. Mum was suppose to pick us up from the station but she had a guest at home. So we decided to walk home! Halfway through the journey, mum came and pick us up haha. 

I think I'm gonna have a really nice sleep tonight!

Hearing things

Lately, I'll hear this really loud engine/motor/drums sound every morning, around 6:30AM. The funny thing is I'm the only person who heard it. So I'm wondering, did I imagined it or I have super advance sense of hearing? Hmmm. Gonna but the voice recorder next to my bed tonight to prove that I'm hopefully not schizophrenic or paranoid.

Blah

I've removed that chat box. It's being spammed terribly so if there's anything just comment under the entry ya.

Today was my very first law class. It feels kinda weird because I'm the only one from my campus and the only arts student among a sea of law students. And because of that, I guess I have to do more readings and write a better assignment.

This is my text book! Super thick for an elective subject huh.


I better start digging those prescribed readings!

We come in peace

This is my country. A country with people who fight for their rights. There's nothing embarrassing about it. The only thing I felt ashamed was not being there physically.

clean it up

Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds. - Albert Einstein

Honestly, I don't have the courage to march like fellow brave Malaysians who stood up for their rights. All that tear gas and water canon did not stop them from fighting for their ideology.

It's funny that in other countries, when there's a demonstration, police are there to make sure everything is under control. But here, they're the one stirring things up by shooting tear gas and water canons.

Thank you so much to all those who fought for rakyat Malaysia.

The day I turn 21

... which is today!

Birthday to me is just another day.Friends were asking me how am I gonna spend my day and my answer: watch tv! Some gave that "you need to get a life" look haha. I like to celebrate it doing things that I normally do. It makes me feel that I'm still very alive haha. 

Ohhh ohh ohh, today, I've finally caught up with this drama series called Umareru (Born). I guess the timing was really right? Haha it was one of the character's 21st birthday and they sang him the birthday song! hahaha 

Half way through the series, Kristy's letter came and I was laughing/smiling like a crazy woman though the show was kinda serious. hahaha 

Yess! I'm 21! I am gonna exercise my rights to vote to the maximum!

So you want to hunt me in my dreams?

... I'll crush you!!

I was referring to exams hehe. Never in my life I was so affected by exams. First, I dreamed about attending special tuition class on Arabian literature, which is unfortunately not part of my syllabus. Why can't I dream of some hint of the upcoming paper I have to sit?

And then, I dreamed that my class (high school) was about to sit for Media Audience's paper (the one I took this morning) and to get to the exam venue, we have to climb a slope. There were no stairs and the only way up is through this rope. It's 8am, paper is about to start and while climbing on the rope, someone ahead of my class untie the rope and I woke up before finding out did I made it to the exam venue.

And this morning, I dreamed that I boycott my additional maths paper. Ran out and it was raining. Fell down and saw Akanishi Jin. Don't ask me how or why, I have no idea. So I ask him " Oh you're back? Don't disturb your Tokyo friends ya, they're having exams lately." and he answered "Yes, I know". Ermm... we played tennis in a living room after that and he commented my serve was terrible.

What awaits me tonight?

Alamak moment resolved

Almost every year for my birthday, I ask for the same thing. It's always Cd or Dvd. Haha back then when I was younger, I've spent a lot of money on buying albums. Then I grew older and my sister set this '4 CDs a year' rule. I didn't agree with it but somehow I obeyed it.

So yesterday, I've decided to get an album and a concert DVD. Ordered, all happy happy and then Kristy asked me a question, I check my orders and ALAMAKKKKKKK!! I ordered the wrong thing!!!!

Thank God YesAsia was nice enough to let me change my order hahaha. Phewwww

TV, Happiness shared by all the family?

Oh really?

Dad gets to sit on a nice couch, mum's busy serving her family, Son gets to sit on a chair with back rest and daughter on a stool. Very happy eh?

Hot like snow

Not sure if it's related to the terribly hot weather today but I almost fainted while I was shopping for groceries. It felt this intense force pressing on my head and suddenly I couldn't stand straight. My right knee starts to hurt and I can't stop yawning. Must be some bad blood circulation. It's not the first time something like that happened but it never fail to amaze me whenever it happens. I sleep and wake up early, drink lots of water and still my health condition is so terrible. I guess I really need to pick up tennis again or at least Wii tennis. Who wants to play with me?

Talking about heat..Isn't it amazing that F1 drivers can withstand the 50'c to 60'c heat in the cockpit?

Waking up with you in my dreams

I had a really bad sleep last night. I have this no air con policy and it was really hot last night. I finally gave in, switch on the ac and it became so cold although it was programed at 27'c with only one fan power.

So it's like hot cold hot cold and thats why I couldn't sleep. Thanks to the horrible sleep, I had a couple of really nice dreams.

I think if you sleep to peacefully, you won't be able to remember your dream heh.

The dream is kinda vivid right now. Haha lets just say someone said 'otsukaresamadeshita' (thank you for your hard work) to me in my dream and it's a wake up call that I totally do not deserve that because I've been procrastinating! It made me realize that everyone is working hard and I should too. =)

Bring it on assignments and revision! Lazy me's gonna meet her biggest rival soon!

I wonder why.

Have you ever wondered why does extraordinary means very unusual or great? If you break up the two words, you'll get extra + ordinary.

extra = more, ordinary = normal. Doesn't that make extraordinary more normal than normal?
