.... of trees and flowers. I was on the way back from work the other day and I saw a couple of 'interesting' flowers by the side of the walk way. So I decided to pull out my phone and take some pictures. Some of them look kinda out of focus... because I have no freakin' idea how to properly focus using mobile phones' cameras =.=


 

This is the same tree as the last few posts but I took another (a few actually) picture of it. I kinda like the color in this one XD



This is so wrongly focused~ >.<



Yellow flowers... no idea what they're actually called...



I went a bit too much into its personal space... I'm sure it's saying, "HEY! MY FACE NEED SPACE!" >.<



Flowers at the entrance to one of the main campuses. A lot of colors there.



This is the white tree that I mentioned a few posts ago. At least it has some greens on it. The pink tree didn't.



This is clearly not a picture of a tree. It's the darkening sky over De Hav. It was really pretty in real life lol

I also took some pictures that are not tree related XD



This was an Easter egg gift from Ceci. She took the time to actually decorate it like that. Such a nice girl XD



This was a (late >.<) birthday present from my cousin. As you can clearly see, the 10th squad is my favourite XD Mostly because in the Rock Musical Bleach, Inoue Harumi-san is the 10th squad fuku-taichou and Matsumoto Rangiku IS the fuku-taichou XD

I woke up kinda early today. In Dublin at the moment. Have yet to take pictures. Should start soon...

I woke up with a splitting headache. Not enough sleep, I guess. Slept at around 1230-1AM until 7. Not that I have much to do today. I only had to go to St. Albans and pick up my coursework result. And that actually made my day~ I got a second upper result XD That would definitely help with my final result. I hope the other coursework are not too bad. After that I headed off to Game and treated myself with Dynasty Warriors 6 and Mirror's Edge. I will definitely play them but not all that often. I bought Devil May Cry 4 yesterday but I don't play that kind of games. It's for Bella.

Not a bad day, not a bad day XD

I only managed to sleep for 2 hours!!!!!!! >.<

I woke up at 5PM. Decided to rewatch Bankai Live Show: Code 002. Played Bleach on Leo's PSP. Headed for Telford Court to return his PSP (I was very tempted to swap PSP with him. Mine is the 3000 series and it cannot be downgraded yet to play downloaded games and I can't get Bleach anywhere) Played Dynasty Warriors 6 with Adam. We were screwed royally by Lu Bu. After that we had dinner (at 11PM) while watching The Lord of The Rings: Fellowship of the Ring. Leo cooked one hell of a feast... and they're mostly chicken. Extremely delicious. I left right after I finished eating because of this terrible headache. The guys are still eating and watching the movie.

I'm extremely tired right now. I really, really, really, really, really, REALLY wanna sleep~ Why is it so hard?!?! I normally can sleep very easily. Mou~ T_T

You know the plan that I had this morning? The sleep for 3 hours thing? Yeah, that. It didn't happen. I couldn't sleep. Not even a wink. I laid awake on the bed, trying so hard to sleep. At the end, I just sat up and pulled the laptop and did some surfing. I'm extremely tired~ I need to SLEEP!!! >.<

I managed to hand it in on time. Reached St. Albans at around 1130. We (me, Adam and Leo) headed for Wagamama (the Japanese restaurant) and had lunch (well for me it was dinner, breakfast and lunch because I didn't eat since last night. Food makes me sleepy). After that stopped by Waterstones and bought one of the Bleach mangas (no. 26). After that headed back for Hatfield. Had a chat with Ceci and now trying desperately to sleep. I'm planning to sleep until Tuesday. Do my laundry Tuesday morning and leave for Dublin that evening. Can't wait to go away for a while. I've seen some sample exam questions for Evidence. I am officially scared.... but that can wait. Sleep comes first XD

It happened when I was doing my Human Rights' coursework. I knew I shouldn't have left it at the very last minute. But I did it nonetheless. I left it until the very last minute. Well, not the VERY last minute. I'm supposed to hand it in in about 6 hours. It is now 0608. And I have yet to sleep. If I were to sleep now, would I be able to wake up in time to print everything out and hand it in? Ah. Alarm. Let's just set the alarm. Set both phones so that I notice the noise. And get Adam to wake me up.

At least, with the high pressure I manage to write 9 pages (most probably crap), and the limit is 10. Not bad... I think ^__^,

For now... SLEEP!!!! >.<

Inspired by Inoue Harumi-san's photo in her blog, I decided to go out (just outside my room XD) and take some photos of the beautiful tree. It's not the white tree, pink actually. Not sure what tree it is. The white one is not anywhere near here. I usually pass by it on my way to the hotel.

While waiting for the pictures to upload, I could actually make lunch =.=


        

I miss that black thing. He's just so darn cute~ I wonder what he's doing at the moment. Most probably lounging around the house. I still recall the day I brought him back when he was just a tiny little kitteh. He could sit on the radio thingy at the front of the X-Trail. He can't do that anymore. Too big for it. I just love taking him for a drive. He would move around at first before settling onto my lap. Not a safe thing to do while driving, I know. But he was never in the way. Just had to make sure that he didn't go down to my feet.


I hope Chubby doesn't bully him...




The last pic was from when he was a teeny weeny lil kitteh XD


PS: That sucked. I couldn't change the time on my computer without making everything else go haywire >.<

I just had one =.= It was all so weird, First, a few friends of mine and I were supposed to perform at a show, playing violins and violas. That went really bad when the sound system died on us and my bow was replaced with candies. If I recall correctly, I can't play the violin. As in me in the actual world. What the hell was the dream thinking making me play the violin? =.=

The second part of the dream was slightly scary. After the failed performance, we headed out and stopped by a convenient store to get some snacks and whatever else. The shop keeper decided to cheat when we decided not to take the drink called Nectar (never heard of it) because it was overpriced, She refused to give us back the money and I didn't get the tea that I ordered because according to her, they've ran out of tea. Basically, she took the money without giving us what we wanted. A fight ensued. Her oversized husband was about to pummel me to the ground with a flash light (yes, A FLASH LIGHT!!! >.<) when I woke up to this constant weird sound coming from the room upstairs. That was just extremely weird. I'm still having a headache because of it. Maybe my mind is trying to tell me to wake up and continue with my coursework =.= And it is now 7:34AM >.< I am as cranky as hell.

That was one of the best tasting Japanese curry I've ever had!!!! XD Leo can surely cook. Gonna have to learn from the master soon.

That's what I've been doing the whole day. Eat. Sleep. Eat. Sleep. Sleep. Eat. The only thing that I did that was different was take my bath. Meh... that ain't good. Really REALLY have to start on my work~

Oh! Ceci and I were walking back from Telford Court when we noticed a very, very cute cat in one of the other houses. House no. 23 to be exact.

Here he/she is:



Cute, ain't it? XD It was really tame to actually call me over to look at it. It wanted to go out but there wasn't anything I could do. Cute, cute cat. Haih~ I miss Kuro T.T I wanna go back~!!!!!

...has been confirmed~ XD Outbound flight on the 7th and back on the 15th. A short holiday is what I need. Away from books and papers~ Everything has been booked. All I have to do now is wait patiently... while doing my coursework. Meh. Is no good. Waiting while filled with stress. Choco... choco... I know I have some somewhere. Oh, right! Secret snackage realm~. Crisps, chocs, jelly, jellybeans and cuppucino.

Now. Eat. Take bath. Do coursework.

Why, may I ask, did I wake up at 5 in the morning? =.= I was dead tired yesterday from badminton and had decided to skip dinner and went straight to sleep. I was hoping to sleep at least until 8. So, why? God knows.

Haih... I should really get on with Cyber. 2 days left. I'm sure it's not THAT hard to do. There are... what, 4-5 topics? Evidence had 9 and I didn't even manage to type everything down because I had reached the 10 page limit. Damn it. How could they set a nearly 2 page long question and expect me to only answer it within 10 pages? It's impossible. I would need at least 2 more pages to dicuss everything (briefly at that).

Oh, the stir-fried noodles Ceci made yesterday was really good. Now I crave for more noodles. Maybe I should just make some instant ones and then take a bath and start on my work. The sun is nowhere to be seen at the moment so I don't feel like going out.

Oh. Right. Now I recall why I woke up so early. One of my phones rang on full volume. Not sure why anyone would have so much free time as to send me a message at 5AM. Oh, right. They didn't check the time difference before sending the message. Inconsiderate humans. Yare-yare. But then it ain't that bad being woken up by the sound of Inoue Harumi-san singing Jigoku Chou. Thankfully I changed the ring tone from Orange Range's O2 to that or I would've died of heart attack =.=

I haven't been updating this for a very, very long time (5 months). Been really busy with classes (not that I go all that often XD) and coursework. I've done three (European Union, Evidence and Human Rights). One more to go (Cyber Law) and it's due on the 2nd. I should really start doing it and not leave until the very last minute like how I did with Human Rights. Heard that everyone passed EU coursework. Oh yeah~ XD Exams are in about... 40 days. EH?!?!?!?!?! 40 DAYS?!?!?! Where did all the time go?!?!! Oh, right. I slept through them >.<

This may seem really really slow of me to pick up but my current anime addiction is Bleach. BUT, luckily, it's because of the live musicals and not the anime itself XD I have a thing for anime related musicals, you know, like Sakura Taisen. But the difference between Sakura Taisen and Bleach is that the cast in Sakura Taisen live performances were the actual seiyuus from the anime whereas this is not the case with Bleach. The cast are musical and movie actors and actresses. The songs that they sing during the musicals are totally original and none of the songs from the anime are used. My favourite songs are Bengara Koushi (by Matsumoto Rangiku (Inoue Harumi), Ichimaru Gin (Tsuchiya Yuichi), Hinamori Momo (Saito Kumiko) and Hitsugaya Toushiro (Nagayama Takashi) and Mou Hitotsu no Chijou (the 2008 version where all but two of the main characters (Yoruichi and Ichigo) sing. Basically the Gotei Juusantai's song). Hmm... I wonder how it would sound like if Harumi-san and Yuichi-san were to sing Gin and Rangiku's duet song called Fuyu no Hanabi from the Bleach Beat Collection (sung by Yuusa Kouji and Matsutani Kaya, the seiyuus for Gin and Rangiku))... I found that song to be slightly weird at first but now I can't stop listening to it LOL Rangiku's character song Ran Hana ~RANKA~ ain't that bad either (yes, Matsumoto Rangiku is my favourite character in Bleach XD). Right now I'm only listening to songs from the musical (over and over again). They're on both of my phones, laptop, mp3 and PSP. Yeah, 5 machines carry the same songs XD

Out of all the 7 (current count) musicals, I like Bankai Live Show: Code 002 the most. All of the cast were there and they were fabulous. I wish I could watch them live instead of through this screen >.< I've done a bit of research and apparently something will take place in May and August (I can't read Japanese except for Inoue Kikuko and Inoue Harumi's names >.<). I wonder whether I can go for it. Even if I can get myself to Japan, the possibility of getting a ticket for the... event would be slightly (if not mostly) impossible. I should've taken up Japanese language instead of French!!! >.< Maybe I should drag either Ceci or Adam to go with me. Ah mou~ I wanted to buy the pictures of Harumi-san in Rock Musical Bleach official shop but I can't!!!! I don't think they do international shipping... T_T

Hmm... I was watching The All's backstage footage yesterday. There was this rehearsal of Rangiku and Kira Izuru's battle scene. Harumi-san and Kitamura Eiki-san are actual siblings and their battle scene was the most convincing of all! I wonder if they had a lot of practice when they were children XD Harumi-san commented on that scene but I was not able to understand what she was saying ^_^, Both of them are just so cute (Harumi-san is cuter in my honest opinion. Looking at her body, it's hard to believe that she has 2 children XD).

On to other subjects~ the weather. It was really, really nice the other week but then my cousin brought along with her the cold wind from Ukraine!!!! >.<  It's been cold for days. The sun decided not to shine all that much. And it rained a few times. And don't get me started on the wind~! Anyway, seeing that it's been cold for a week, I went out this morning wearing 4 layers of clothing (t-shirt, shirt, jacket and trench coat) and a scarf. It was cold. My head felt like exploding from the cold. And later on, about an hour ago, when I was on my way back home, it was freakin' hot!! I had to shed the jackets and unbutton my shirt. The weather is damn unpredictable here >.< We only have one season in Malaysia: SUMMER~ I can't wait to go back and eat as much as I want. I miss mommy's cooking~ T_T

What else? What else? Ah! Animes. I'm currently watching Marimite 4th Season. Weird. Centered mostly on Yumi and Touko. Meh. I was hoping for a lot of Youko. Next is Maria + Holic. A weird anime. A girl entered the school that her late mother used to attend and is hoping to find her soul mate just like how her mother found her father. But the twist is the mother used to attend an all girl school And she's looking for another girl to be her soul mate. To make matter worse, the first person she met and apparently fell for was a cross-dressing boy. Boys give her hives so she can't stand them. And he's aware of her sexual orientation and is making her out as a pervert (since when are lesbians perverts, dear cross-dressing boy?  Yeah, she drools and even have nose-bleeds looking at pretty girls (and the teachers XD) but that doesn't make her a perv- oh, wait. It does. My bad >.<). This story is the total opposite of Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru (where a boy was sent to an all girl school). But then again... Mariya's twin, Shizu, a girl was sent... to an all boy school  ¬.¬ WEIRD~ Oh, and I'm also following Bleach. Ep 212 at the moment. I'm also at ep 132 (hey... I started watching 2 weeks ago. So, instead of letting the number of unwatched episodes grow, I watch the current ones too. Some may see it as spoiling it but I don't care much about older episodes. I even skipped Bount arc).

What else? Ah. Right. I bought a PS3 2 months ago but I don't play it all that much. The only games that I play are Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, Soul Calibur IV and Dynasty Warriors: Gundam. I play Taiko no Tatsujin and 2 Portable more (on the PSP). They're a lot more fun.

Haih... it's been 3 weeks since I last played badminton. I am so going tomorrow. Need to stretch a bit. I've been sleeping most of the time. Not good for the body I hear lol I was hoping to gain some weight but it proved to be quite hard to do >.<

Here are some rules that I must follow.

1. EAT.
2. DRINK.
3. TAKE MEDICINE.
4. SWITCH OFF WINAMP BEFORE GOING TO SLEEP.
5. SWITCH PHONES BACK TO NORMAL / CORNELIA MODES AFTER CLASS.

Is there anything else?

... was what I had yesterday. It was so crappy that I can't remember half of it. Went to bed at 3 and woke up at 6. The drama in the kitchen really took a lot out of me. That and my homework. Left the house at 0750 and came back at 1750. 10 freakin' hours. I nearly died from all that. I almost fell asleep in Human Rights class. And to make matters worse, the bloody flu kicked in again. Fucking uncomfortable. Because of the hectic schedule, I didn't manage to eat lunch. And the last time I ate was at 0645. Called up one of my housemates and got her to do me the favour of putting my frozen pizza into the oven while I was on my way back.



And for some reason I can't sleep right now -_____-

My dinner was 2 hours late -_____-

Yes, 2 hours. I waited for them for 2 hours. The pizzas were... well, they weren't cold, but they weren't warm either. Caught a slight cold again. Hell knows how long it's gonna linger this time.

Oh, have to remember to pick up Twelfth Night at HMV this Saturday. Hope that they got the correct version.


Shit, I really wanted to read up some EU Law today but didn't have the time to get the book in St. Albans. Might as well read the notes the lecturer gave. Won't be sufficient though... meh...

Yeah, I'm not counting last week's escapades as they're all nearly non-existence.


SO. What does this week have in store for the-still-recovering-me? Yesterday was full of... Asda. Yup. The only place I went to yesterday was Asda (and the bank to cash in some traveller's cheques... the bank was taking too much time to clear my bank draft that I was forced to cash one in... and I found out later on that it's already been cleared...). Bought tonnes and tonnes and tonnes of... instant food. Can't cook to save my life. My cooking is a tragedy waiting to happen (and a lawsuit too for that matter). I bought baked beans, mushroom soup, some of those instant flavoured rice, Oreo, frozen pizzas, cereal, milk... um... chocolates, and um... chocolates. Oh! Eggs. And... tissue. Yeah, that's about it. After coming back from Asda, I spent the whole evening (yes, the whole evening) to arrange my room. Too many freakin wires here and there. And plastic bags too. And jackets (should stop buying them...).


And today. What did I do today...? Oh yeah. I woke up, took my bath and headed to.... Asda. Yes, ASDA. I forgot to get some stuff yesterday. Bought mugs, a wok, the thingy you use to cook (what do you call those things? The thingy you use to move the food around in pans/woks), a chef knife, a cutlery set (4 sets of them), hangers (for those jackets) and cotton buds.

After that, gaia from GB came over and gave me a haircut. Fabulous job, I tell ya. Really, really happy with my hair now. I won't be waking up tomorrow looking like a zombie. But, mom didn't like it all that much. Meh, she's 14 hours flight away. Can't do nothing about. For some reason, during the haircutting session, the computer kept spouting sappy songs -____-

Ah. Chotto. Speaking of that distant land.... since when does dad give RM2K for duit raya?!?! It was only RM100 last year. Freakin' unfair. He upped it when I'm all the way here. And I'm not getting anything for my birthday!!! Meh..... never mind. He gave me RM16K... but... birthday present.... T_T Oh~ I have to remember to post the birthday cards tomorrow.

Wait... I have a class to attend tomorrow. It's freakin' ridiculous. I'm gonna have to spend an hour to get to class, an hour in class and another hour to come back. That's a bloody waste of my time. Oh, have to remember to buy HR & CL and Euro Union Law textbooks tomorrow.

Hey.... I ordered the pizzas more than half an hour ago. Where are they? Haraheta yo~


6 hours of lectures and seminars on Thursday. And I have to leave at 8. SO not looking forward to it.... but I think that's better than nothing to do. Where the hell is B72 anyway? I should ask some of the guys tomorrow.


What else? What else? Oh. I want to watch Hana Kimi again. And also Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge. Sunako-chan~!! Kawaii~ Reminds me of Karukan. And Hotarubi. And... Karasuma-kun... eww....

Meh... I've been sick for the past week. Stupid cold... I'm now forced to wake up at 3 AM to clear my nose and throat.

But, besides being sick, everything else is fine. I love my classes and are glad that they're finally starting. Something to do, at last. Cyber Law is by far the most interesting subject out of all the subjects that I've taken on. European Union Law... a bit on the boring side. Evidence is quite interesting. It's just like criminal law but with more imagination. Human Rights and Civil Liberties is another interesting one. But the lecturer is a bit strict. Never arrive before him. Have to remember to silence my phones before the class starts.

I only have one thing to say to the ending; WTF?!?!?!

They killed off the main character!! Yes, Lelouch!! He didn't need to die!! God, I felt so sorry for Nunnally when she found out the truth about her brother. The ending was just too sad. Damn those that said it was a good ending!! It's like Evangelion just the total opposite. In Code Geass, the main character died. In Evangelion, everyone died except for the main character.

Meh~

That anime is just getting a little too intense (even without the x-factor). Here's what's going on at the moment:

The Emperor is dead, thanks to Lelouch. Marianne, who was supposed to be dead, was in fact still alive in Anya. But then, Lelouch killed her after he found out his parents' plans (the Ragnarok Junction thingy).

Schneizel is actually the real villain, not minding killing 200 million people to stop people from fighting (seriously, this guy is on crack). The bastard just mowed down Cornelia because she doesn't share his view (of killing people to stop the war).

The Black Knights have been brainwashed by Schneizel and they are now seeking to kill Lelouch. Lelouch, on the other hand, became the Emperor of Britannia after the death of his father.

Nunnally, who everyone thought was killed when Frieja was fired by Suzaku, is actually alive and is on Schneizel's side. She just hit the Fieja button. Not sure what's going to happen next. Will have to wait for next week's episode.

But what the hell were they thinking when they let Schneizel shoot  Cornelia?!?!?! That's no way for Britannia no Majo to die!! Too simple!!! If she is to die, she can only die in the battle field. Or of old age. Nothing else. Especially not by that c*ck-sucker Schneizel. I know that there's something going on between him and that sissy aide of his. He's as sissy as the boy anyway. I have nothing against gays. I'm one. I just can't stand that bastard. Meh~
