Anything that can go wrong will go wrong. ~ Murphy’s Law [wiki]

On Thursday I found out that i failed my math midterm exam but i kinda expected that oredi so takpe lah. That day, I went so early (at 9am) to uni even tho my class started at 1.30pm wasting time then i had to take the bus back at 6.30pm coz nick went back even tho my class ended at 5pm.

So hung out in the lab kejap…but every computer i used had some problem or another - no internet connection la, keeps restarting la, internet slow - so kinda got fed up eventually and took a nap in the lab..hehe At around 6.30pm, i went to wait for the bus at the entrance and as I was walking out of the uni, the bus juz passed me by. It didnt even stop for me!! Pukimak tul~!!. So there I was, stuck in cyberjaya with no transport back, at 6.45pm. AND it was raining…AND i was waiting in the rain for that bus.

At that point i had 3 options :
(1) get my parents to pick me up - petrol (RM10++) & toll (RM4)
but that would be really really late coz it was jammed everywhere plus it would be quite expensive on petrol & toll(2) take a public bus to Pasar Seni (RM4-5) then LRT to KJ (RM2) & taxi home (RM8-9)
but it would take about 2 hours and i had to wait in the rain again. Total cost = RM 15-16

(3) take a taxi to Putrajaya ERL station (RM??) and take ERL to KL Central (RM9) then LRT to KJ (RM2.10) & taxi home (RM 8-9)
but i didnt kno how much the taxi to the ERL station would cost and i only had a few ringgit in my wallet. Total cost = RM 11+??

I called my dad and explained the situation and we settled on option No 3 because it was the fastest and safest way back. And because I wasnt sure if i had enough cash, my dad decided to bank in money to my BCB account because there was an ATM machine in the uni.

However, the ATM machine was not working and so I couldnt withdraw any money. Decided to just risk it by taking option (c) and praying that I had enough cash.

Lucky for me, the taxi ride was only RM11. *heave a big sigh of relief* I actually fell asleep in the taxi coz I was so tired. I never realized that it was actually pretty near. I expected it to be around RM15-20 due to the fact that they are always waiting in front of my uni and maybe they hiked up the prices - to tipu the foreign students and all.

Heh! I remembered the ticket for the ERL is less than RM10 coz there was this other time that i got stranded in the station without a sen on me and I had to call Cik Delinn at 11pm and paksa her out of bed to drive down to the station to pass me RM10 (minta ampun linnnn…). Punya main takut me masa kena stranded tu. Kalo linn tak angkat phone..mmg i dok sana je la sampai morning to call someone to come pick me up before goin to uni.

I met up with my dad and G at the LRT station and my mom picked us up from KJ. Finally reached home around 9.30pm after my long day and tiring “adventure”.As Murphy’s Law states, anything that can go wrong, will go wrong……Screw u Murphy *puts tongue out*

Yay~! I’ve got my own PC back from the shop. Apparently the motherboard got spoilt. No idea how…..must be all that moving around…and stupid MAS cargo dont understand the word “Fragile”.

There was once that I checked-in in the Miri airport and as my computer box was moving down the conveyer (sp?) belt and it actually fell sideways (from horizontal to vertical) and no one cared! Me and my friends who were watching were like….oooh *suck breath in*

Anyway, the cost of the repair was about RM500, lucky my dad didnt make a lot of noise coz he understands the fact that I bring my computer around alot

OH yes, i also bought a Final Fantasy X-2 poster for RM9 (pricey? i dont think so) The pic on the right is not the real poster. it’s just a rough idea of how it looks like…coz I dont have my digital camera to take a pic It now stuck outside my bedroom door. So nice!

I was onlining in my room when my sis asked me to go out quickly to watch TV. Apparently the Hosts of the weekday 8TV Quickie decided to dress up as each other. OMG!! So funny! Marion dressed up as Adam and Adam looked like a DRAG QUEEN!

No point keeping up a daily commentary…im only going to post this up every Fri nite anyway. Still no sign of my parents deciding, except that they’ve finally decided to appeal (coz I got terminated) today…which leaves approx 2 weeks before the semester starts. Wow! That’s fast! *sarcastic*

Well, it is probably my fault all this happened (as my mom likes to say & I quote, “If u passed, this wont happen”) OH YEAH….like I didn’t try my best…..*NEWS FLASH* It’s over and done with, cant change that now **

Well actually, Im kinda irritated of waiting. Its boring here at home. Coz my sisters’ go to sch and Im basically stuck at home doing housework not to mention that I have no maid and my mom’s a neat freak (kinda reminds me of Rachel….but worse…no offence, Rach). So far, I’ve reorganized the CD case, read every story book in the house twice….Juz finished reading Harry Potter & the Goblet of Fire for the 2nd time in a week….have a slight suspicion I’ll be reading that again next week unless I get to persuade my parents to get the next book (fat chance of that!!). My hp’s been MIA since before the exams and I still haven’t got any sign of it. Asked my dad about it for the millionth time after about a week (got sick of asking) this morning and he said, “yeah, tomorrow morning lah”…now, where have I heard that before??

Oh, did I mention that it’s 7 am now…listening to Jason Lo & Rudy on Hitz.FM, don’t get good radio channels back in Miri. Hehe!! Except for the fact that I listen to it 24/7, even in the shower, I tend to hear the same songs 2-3 times a day…understandable coz they have to play the top hits to suit their listeners and since it’s mostly R&B, it suits me just fine.

Wonder if my 600 book money is already in my account? Coz I banked in the check last week after being helped by a really helpful guard at the bank. Not to mention that Im dead broke.

I went to the IC Dept (or whatever it’s called) a few days ago to do MyCard (new IC) with an old auntie of mine….embarresed myself in front of her. We were eating lunch at McD (she likes fried chicken for some reason – even at that age) and I thought she offered me her french fries, which I took coz I was bored while my mom and her were engrossed in some sisterly catching up. Then we were about to leave and I was putting it (the French fries) into my plastic bag when my mom insisted it for her. Apparently she wanted the French fries to keep for herself later and I misunderstood her while happily eating it. LOL! laughla!! It’s supposed to be funny.

Oh yeah, I saw Evenstarr’s video clip “Masih” on Channel 9 the other day. For those that doesn’t know, Evenstarr is a local band from Kuching and the drummer is a friend of mine. They’re a new band and they’re quite good in Eng & BM songs. Good job guys J

The Rasmus was here 1-2 days ago in Hard Rock Café but of course I didn’t go. There was also a Jazz festival – the Green Room Festival – but of course I didn’t go too. Hoobastank is coming in August…not sure if im going, but of course I doubt. See how my boring my life is? Everyone says “Wuah, so syok you in KL, can go shopping and all the other events.” Yeah rite…

Im sick of having no internet access. Probably coz I’m too used to it. My dad bought Webbit – a new broadband wireless technology from Timedotcom – but of course my computer is so ancient that it doesn’t have a port for the Ethernet cable then my dad says he’ll buy a PC…but no sign of that yet (why am I not surprised?). I don’t dare to say anything until I’m sure where I’ll end up studying. Too much pestering isn’t good for my situation now. Oh yeah, back to my PC. To show you how slow it is, here are it’s specs : Intel Celeron 225 Mhz (yes MEGAHz), 128 MB RAM, 13.9 GB HDD & running on Win 98. How ancient is that??? At this point, I have no comment *rolls eyes*

Hmm….7.30 am already…I think I’m going to devote today to write testimonials which are way overdue. Sorry for those who have been waiting. I’m getting right to it ASAP.

Hey, just wondering….is anyone really reading this? If you are…please please please comment or write something on the right column on the right.

{11 pm}

I wrote so many testimonials and took some pictures here in KL but when i tried to open the CD in the Cybercafe, i cant. Wat a waste of time!!!!!!!!
