wait... you must be thinking 'where is the first day!?' well you see i made one using some other website's and figured that it couldn't be linked to my website so that really wasn't for me... however i saved it and pasted it here for your reading. here it goes...
2/6/04
Well... my first day of blogging and already I screwed up. I was typing about like a thousand characters about what happened to me today... and I thought I opened a new browser to check my spelling. Turns out I didn't and when I clicked 'back' all my typing was gone... this is so bullshit.
*SIGH* anyways here I go again.
I managed to finally fall asleep at around 4am or so, I don't really know cos I don't have a clock that I keep looking at to see what time I fall asleep. Just when I got comfortable my mom woke me up at about 9am suddenly wanting me to take her to see this agency that handles my applications for universities overseas. Went there about 11am and finished at 1pm... that was frickin long... and so many procedures to do, for preparing... I was going through some of the forms that needed filling up as soon as possible and saw that it required passport number. I didn't have an international passport.
When I got home I set out to the near by photoshop(s) around my housing area wit my dad on a bike, we move fast on a bike and its nearby so yeah. Some uncle was like busy getting his mug taken wearing suit and all for God knows what... so I had to come back later in the day, on the way home it decided to rain and I was soaked. I wonder why the rain stopped so coincidentally right after I got into my house.
So yeah I got home and like did what I usually do everyday when I don't have classes. Sit in front of my computer, mindless and go through some websites to find anything that would be interesting to read or not...
Oh yeah I was chatting with Shawn online and apparently the agency gave some aunty our phone numbers cos her son was to go to the same university with us at the same time and he apparently had graduated from our college like last year but he didn't enrol in the January intake. This woman is well... vexing, when she called Shawn she asked all kinds of questions one which too my disliking went something like this
woman : are you a christian?
Shawn : yeah
woman : which church do you go to?
I mean come on... why is she doing all of this? wait it gets better I thought that lightning would just hit Shawn and I would be home free, turns out it was a chain lightning. She called me soon enough and asked me about when I was going to leave for Australia, I replied maybe around 1 week before commencement date and she can ask me 'why so early!?' C'mon AUNTY!!! you wanna like land the aeroplane right on the commencement date and stroll into class? WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU!? *takes a deep breath*
anyway she asked for my flight number when I clearly told her I haven't begun any preparations yet as I just came back from the agency. That somehow didn't register in her head. I told her when I have the info then I would call her. I hope to be able to get flight tickets wit Shawn and then only tell her of it.
This woman expects me and Shawn to be buddies wit her son, when we don't even know who the heck is he and why does his mother gotta do all of these for him? Even finding friends!? COME ON!!! We're like going to university for crying out loud... it ain't kindergarden.
well Shawn seemed very relaxed about preparations and stuff, he wants to go there 2 weeks before commencement date, I'm wondering why 2 weeks, what is 2 weeks for, I think the important things like making a bank account and finding accomodations (which I have a plan already) shouldn't take two weeks.
I don't even have a passport yet... *sigh* I have to wake up early again tomorrow to go make my passport. Thank God that now it takes around 24 hours (more or less) to make and collect the passport. Its my first international passport, I haven't been overseas before, I'm such a jakun. <_<
Oh well its like 1:30am already I better try to get some sleep otherwise passport making session might seem impossible.
3/6/04
Today I had to wake up like 7am to go and get my passport done... some people said it would be hell to wait some people said it would be very very fast... Well I kinda ended up in the middle a little to the fast side. I arrived there at about 8:21am and finished everything by 8:50am. Not too shabby I say... after that I went home and slept... when I woke up I felt like a giant rock just fell on my head, I thought it was already 6pm because usually when I have my afternoon nap I wake up at 6pm, then I saw the clock and it showed 1pm. I was like... great, so what am I gonna do for the next few hours...
and then the search for a better blog happened. Who would've thougth that angelfire provided their very own blogger that could be linked to meh own website! roxorz... gotta go now, I'm freakin hungry and I'm suppose to play warcraft with Shawn after I find food...
Dinner was expensive, Bee Lee picked me up to go Ikano Power Center. His reason being that he never ate dinner there before. (...) He wanted to eat at the food court there. I said 'hey, if you wanted to eat hawker like food, we should've gone to hawker stalls' so we were walking till I somehow got sucked in or suckered into this place called Fasta Pasta. every main course was like rm14 above... well I didn't see much reason in paying that much for noodles but what the heck, I tried it out, ordered ravioli. It had so little meat in it I felt like eating just carbohyrdrate. We didn't bother ordering drinks from there seeing that kind of environment only cater to rich people.
After that we walked to Tesco where I wanted to buy some drinks. I was at this express lane queueing up till it finally got to my turn the cashier guy (who looked gay) put the 'cashier close' sign in front of me. So I had to go find some other long queue to wait in. When I finally paid for my stuff and wanted to leave I saw the cashier that closed the lane on me, was tending to people again. Some luck I have.
I went out to dinner wit my friend to try to release tension but it just made it worse. Oh well that's my life for you ladies and gentleman. Not bad blogging for one day ain't it!?
