updates?

i know and i admit that i have been very lazy in keeping this blog alive.. but if i dont, it'll probably go emo and not publish my posts when i really feel like blogging, like my previous blog.

so anyway, updates updates updates..

as most of my girls already know, i'm now on my semester break for about a month and a half.. got back 2 weeks ago actually BUT i have to go back to uni tomorrow for like 11 dreadful days... for what u might ask? FOR SOME STUPID COMPULSORY ENGLISH COURSE BECAUSE I GOT A BAND 4 FOR MY MUET EXAM.... =.=" i shall not elaborate further on how i got a total of 219 points though ONE POINT away from the band 5 mark, but was contented cos i didnt want to waste another RM60 to retake the exam since EVERYONE says that having a band 4 mark would definitely SUFFICE for a local university.. call me cheap but i just DONT LIKE sitting for exams.. little did i know that the local uni or more like my uni has changed the system and made the english courses compulsory to serve the purpose of:

1. improving the english language among the local undergraduates
2. just to fulfill our credit hours... wtf


i'm going to be stuck in a class with, no offence but with chinese educated students and malays who can barely speak proper english... it's not like i'm being all proud with my english just because i'm "english ed" but it really irritates me especially those who tend to show off their abilities of conversing in english with the usage of certain 'bombastic' words i never even heard of before when they cant even understand the words that are coming out from my mouth..

i admit i'm not all the good and perfect in the language myself but at least i can speak decent english.. this just reminds me of a salesgirl who was trying to convince me in buying their shoes when i was out shopping at queensbay with sonia darling n mingy dearie.. she said, "this shoe very comfort!" and as i looked at the girls, ming just happily looked at me and say, "it's very comfort!" while tryin to hold back from bursting into laughter.. lol okay.. my bad.. i guess on the 'good' side of it, they actually have guts or sometimes too much guts to speak in a language they aren't familiar with.. well, i guess the same goes to them when i speak in mandarin or hokkien, laughing at my intonation and accents which i didnt even know i had..

so anyways, let's see what did i not blog about aside from all my emo-ing posts..

of course. all the 21st birthday parties i've attended so far, including mine =) though i couldnt attend carmen's, yen's, chuen's n sooch's cos of uni.. grr. anyway, (warning: loads of pics ahead!)

first off, sonia's 21st!
like a replay of sonia's 17th birthday party 4 years ago, BBQ at sonia's house.. this time with the combined celebration of sofia n uncle Vj's birthdays as well..

sofia n her group of friends..
then... and now..
carmen's polaroid!
the nicely decorated tables with coloured candles.. (captured by ming)
food! the lamb was great! everything tasted so GOOD i tell u..
ming n i cam-whoring with the very unique mirror in sonia's dining hall.. while waiting for the rest to come.. lol
with the wonderful creation of the digital camera, no one needs to worry bout wasting photo films anymore.. hence the endless snapping of pictures, leaving mervin n i not being able to eat at peace.. haha
a picture of the juniors getting all very 'excited' after finishing probably a carton of SHANDY.. well, we were once that age on a very similar occasion but i don't remember us competing in drowning ourselves in shandy.. oh well, times have changed i guess..

but MGSians will be MGSians no matter where they are, juniors or seniors, never fail to "make a lot of noise".. we were considerable quiet that night cos our loudspeakers, the miss tans - sookie n pei wen weren't around.. not forgetting jienny anny n nian dearest..
and here we are, looking all high n drunk over, orange juice. haha

the very famous raccoon eyes pose.. and yes, we are childish but we had fun =) i think the juniors took more normal looking photos than we did..

so, we ended the night with a game of 'higher or lower' and all ended up looking half drunk.. haha

guess i'll just blog about the other 21st birthdays another day cos i'm getting lazy for now and since i'd probably have ample of time in uni for the next 11 days =( i might as well blog when i'm there then, that is also IF the stupid wireless connection still works. bah!

toodles.


love u meimei <3
dinner with ur family! =)
