spectacular?

i'm not cut out for blogging, i realised today. my blog is sooo *yawn*. i prefer to read rather than take the effort to write. i need spectacular things to happen to me before i can pen it down. i can't make myself sit down and write an interesting article. hmmmmm....so from now on, i'll only update when i want to whine and whinge. or when something fantastic, magical, supernatural, sparkly and dazzly happens to me. or when my flatmate starts her orgies again and i need an outlet to vent. anyhoo..toodles.

we want snow!

minus 4 degrees out! *keeps running to the window to check for snow* i sincerely hope for snow. i sincerely want want want to see snowflakes in the shape of crystalline stars. *clasps hands together and silently chants for snow*. hoping and wishing for a white white christmas. it prolly won't be much fun after awhile but i'll be taking a picture of my first snowflake. i'll prolly name it.....some special name. i've gone slightly kooky.

alma mater

chanced upon mgs's official website while twiddling around, reading other people's blogs. not bad a website, i must admit. its not some amateurish website set up by kawaii slash loyal mgsian girls who want to "keep in touch, ya" and be "fwens foreva!". quite organized and professional.

oh gosh. my friend just reminded me that its december next week. meaning.....winter bears down upon us, unavoidable. praying hard that i won't suffer too horribly. on the other hand, manchester's up north so we'll probably have snow? mmhmm! slush slush

dolphin dreams

woke up comparatively late today. had to rush for class. normally i'm awake by 7am but arose at 8.15am today for the 9am class. not much regret however. had a lovely delightful dream where i was playing badminton(don't ask why badminton, goodness knows why) by a lagoon where schools of dolphins were swimming and playing. the water was a sparkling blue like scattered diamonds. i waded into the water and transformed into a mermaid slash sportswoman with a polo shirt and badminton racket still in hand. then the dolphins, each a different colour, swam with me around the lagoon. then we got tired and sat on rocks, the dolphins and i. i have a dolphin obsession. i do i do. the dream kept a smile on my face all day. mmmm..nice. i love dolphins. i long for the sea...ahh.

friday tomorrow! whoop! might be going to the german christmas market. we'll see. i might be feeling ultra nerdy tomorrow. you can't plan these things. =)

grumblings

just woke up afternoon nap. my mind is in a foggy state. heavy fog. i should be studying. i should be finishing my assignment. but Jane Eyre the movie calls out to me. beckoning me to watch. sighs.. no no no. assignment.! the mind goes round and round

on another note, these ang mohs are truly lazy, some of them. complain about my heater not working yesterday, today the electrician came for 2 mins and said "oh, got to go take the testers to test the heater, love." "fine, thanks." says i. blardy fellow never showed up after that. still cold in here. i so polite also they never appreciate me! lazy scot! they'd better fix it tomorrow. i ain't gotta put up with icy fingers for long.

going to the happy place.

someone, please..help.! ask me why i haven't had lunch although its already 3.30pm on a nice sunday afternoon. ask me why i can't sleep for fear of having nightmares. ask me why i dare not venture out of my room even to go to the loo. ask me!
i've not gone insane. i'm not a hermit. its because my flatmate is at "it" again. every weekend, regardless of the time, morning, night, noon, this flatmate and her weedy boyfriend scare the living daylights out of every moving object in within a 500metre radius. the grossness of it all makes my stomach turn, it makes the birds fall out of the sky in horror, it makes the mice cover their ears and scream in agony. its that bad. i ain't lying. they go at "it" without fail, every weekend. thank God he lives in another state so its just EVERY weekend. the screams, the moans, the "oh shawniee!" is D.I.S.G.U.S.T.I.N.G. i need to go to a happy place. think happy thoughts...think blue sky, rolling meadows, daisies, picnics, blue eyes....think happy thoughts!

people in the gomen

go read kennysia's article today. The ZAM Rap. almost died laughing listening to the youtube video and reading the transcript. hahaha..nearly fell off my chair.

you women who oppress the poor
and crush the needy
and say to your husbands, "Bring us some drinks!"

whoaaa.. haha. amos so keng wan.

wanderings

sundays are always nice.always. after church went to victoria train station to buy tickets then had half an hour to spare. so went to walk walk around. went to see a cathedral, a really old music school, classic quaint pubs and bars. so lovely. was feeling ye olde worlde charm. wish i had a less bulky camera so i could have taken pictures. the cathedral was beautiful but a trifle scary. it had statues of ghouls and goblins carved in the building. ghouls?? no wonder the church in the England is mostly dead. ghouls. sheesh. and another pretty sight was an ugly couple making out in a corner outside the church. double sheesh. felt like stoning them. bukan saya mia masalah. walk on by... ooh, and today was patriot's day. like hari pahlawan back in everythingcanland except they don't ask money from school children, who never give anyway (me at least =P). everyone was wearing poppyseed badges. heard bands playing in the city. tried to look for the parade but failed. had to run back to station to catch the train. =( love spending time with myself sightseeing. i'm my best friend. muah muah.

wish i was in penang to watch the sea of yellow on primetime news. =(

catch me a hill

weekend again!! whoopdeedoo. i is feeling like watching a movie. but i donch know whats out there worth watching. i might just search my favourite movies online, like A Fish Called Wanda! heeheehee...love that show. u gotta watch it. u have to. typical british wit. there is just N.O.T.H.I.N.G to do here, save clubbing and drinking, which mua, does not deign to do. sheesh, manchester is boring. no sea, no pretty english villages to explore, no mountains to climb, no streams to forge.. now i can't wear me bonnet and fluffy skirt and go twirling up any hills. plus, you tend to get lazy here due to the cold dratty weather. you just want to stay home with your comfy duvet. oh well...................................

the "sien" factor

i'm so emo-ing today. woke up happy and excited. went for extra pracs. got home. slept. woke up grumpy. got invited for dinner at friend's place. went to cook and eat. met other emo-ing people so emo-ed with them. had some magic boiled green beans and coconut milk and then was giggly and happy again. something's wrong with me. so the sien!

oddities

people are a nuisance, wouldn't you agree? if everyone just kept to themselves, the world would be a happy place, for me that is. thats my philosophy. write it down people. i'm not bitter nor am i a hermit. just a proven observation that people are cumbersome. they hang around, they visit you at odd hours, they bug u on msn....and then there are the creeps lurking out there. u can't identify some of them at first sight, so innocently, u make friends with them. then they start displaying their creepyness and u avoid them like the plague. didn't happen to me, i was just an amused spectator. i stereotype alot. =P but still, i should love to earn lots of money and buy my own island in the future. just me and the big blue sea. sighhh....i need a holiday. somewhere....in greece.

its the weekend..wooh..!

i am love fridays because IFBN plays shabbat songs...so lovely..! hence, fridays are the best time to study. tis a sad thing to be studying at 1.45am on a friday night/early saturday morning. nerding at this hour. tsk tsk.
weekend highlight: looking forward to sunday service! i am missing BOG's dancing sessions. hahah...=P

the adams and the eves.

i tells you, the things i go through for this physio course. today, for practical lessons we learnt postural control and behaviour. rights. so lecturer tells us "Off with your tops! observe each other's muscular activity in the spinal and abdominal region!" Caught me unawares there. hmm, think zoe think. quick! Ooh, yes me did wear a spaghetti type shirt underneath my 1st layer of clothes. Lets hope i won't have to model. Nopes, me had to model. Sighhh...but i slyly just lifted up my shirt for them to observe. I didn't happily strip off my shirt like the others. Call me a prude, aye, that i am. I still am not used to exposing body parts. But looking around the room, i was thinking, for goodness' sake why not? So many porky, hairy, flabby people and some girls, even boys, with the biggest boobs you'll ever see. And they were happily parading for each other. Just 6 weeks into the course, and i've seen all i'll ever want to see of my classmates'
anatomies. shiverssss...i wonder how they teach physio in malaysia? hmmm..
speaking of which, reminds me of something i saw 2 weeks ago. in one of the sports lab, we caught a glimpse of physio students observing a guy, probably a student too, clad only in his underwear streaking up and down the room several times. oh help! help!
