I have certainly not been writing my blog…
Watched Godfather I, II & III for the first time with Ron…
Watched at least 10 other movies with Ron over Christmas week…
A lot of eating…
A lot of sleeping…
Gained a lot of weight… which is not surprising… =(
Had to say goodbye & RIP to my la top which I had since August 2006… T.T
Got to spend a lot of wonderful time with my dear Ron which we have not have the chance to do so since he moved to Des Moines…
Surprised myself of how much more we still have to talk about… Enjoyed talking to him in person so much… Rather than only on the phone… <3
Last 4 weeks…
Moved from Ames to my new house in Coralville (which is such a lovely neighborhood)…with JingYi & Joseph…
Extremely grateful for the help from my dear Ron <3 … I don’t know what will I do without you – for uncountable reasons…
Last 3 weeks…
Started working as the Quality Engineer Co-op in Whirlpool Amana…
Met a lot of people… Tried very hard not to forget all those new names…
Learned a lot more about refrigeration… A lot more to learn…
Last 2 weeks…
Spring 2010 classes have started…
Personally have not touched any of my IE570 – Project Management materials…
Played a lot of badminton… just started actually…
Cooked nasi lemak for four; my 2 new housemates – JingYi & Joseph, Ron <3 and for myself…
Nasi Lemak – January 13th, 2010
Got “scolding” for cooking nasi lemak / for not cooking for who & who…
Last week…
Started my one week long Yellow Belt Training in Whirlpool…
Cooked Prawn Mee for six… had Edward & Yi Shan over for dinner…
Prawn Mee – Jan 18th, 2010
Had chocolate fondue for six as well…
Had Ron here with me for the first 2 weeks of work since his classes will only start from my 3rd week of work… I was so happy!
He went back the night I cooked Prawn Mee… =(
Started missing him already…
Now…
Suppose to be studying…
Obviously… things are not going as planned…
Catch up with the 3 new episodes of Desperate Housewife…
Can’t wait for FRIDAY!!!!
Excited for the weekend…
And to see somebody… =D
Now that the final exams are over… I finally have time to just kick back and relax! Hence the reason why I blog less nowadays.. haha!
All I have been doing for the past few days is eat, sleep and watch movies… AVATAR was GOOD!!! Went and watch it yesterday afternoon with Ron…
The nicest part of winter break that I get to spend more time with Ron! <3 The last time a had as much time to spend with him was before he moved to Des Moines for his MBA which was a year ago…
I’ve also finally have the time to cook <3 Nasi Lemak <3 which I have been craving for so many months but did not have the time to cook as I was too busy with classes…
Nasi Lemak with Curry Chicken & Sambal Udang
Hmmmmmm… I should cook more this winter break!
12/21/2009 – Dinner for 3
How I wish the question “What’s the latest News Feed on Facebook?” will appear on my on my test paper…
I have a good feeling I will get that right…
It’s funny how I NEVER blog when have time but when I am so busy with exams and writing take home final paper… the only few things I can do is blogging.
Waiting for my supper to be ready… omg… this week… I have been eating and eating and eating every 2 hours… Thank goodness it’s gonna be over soon… or else I might turn into a balloon once again like what happen during my first semester… Damn you UDCC!!!
Food… one of the few joys over finals week…
Eating my shrimp & cherry tomato pasta
I’m so craving for salmon sashimi right now though…
Spinach & egg noodle soup with salmon that I had on Monday <3
17 hours to FREEDOM!!!!!!!!
Can’t wait for finals to be over!!!
Out of my 7 semesters in ISU, this is the earliest I finish my finals… by Wednesday afternoon.
The worse one was Spring 2009. 6 FINALS + 3Projects + IE448 assignments… (o_o) Which lasted until Friday. The worse part was that it was on my birthday!! Less than 5 hours of sleep in 48 hours while I was turning 21… haiz… (T_T)
Anyway! Enough walking memory-a.k.a.-nightmare-lane for now.
Now… 70 pages of notes to go! (-__-)” Aih~~ So no mood!
One should always be thankful,
One should never be ungrateful,
One should see the glass as half full,
As the empty half is for one to fill,
Without it, where will one find the drive?
To move forward in ones’ life?
Finals for Fall 2009 in ISU has officially begun! GOOD LUCK EVERYBODY!!!!
It’s Monday and its time to get $2.00 medium Mocha’s from Caribou cafe.
~Milk Chocolate Mocha from Caribou Cafe~
This is the time whereby coffee becomes your friend, espresso shots become your best friend, and sleep becomes the lover you long for but will never have…
All the best to all my friends!!!
Writing on my blog about myself, my opinion and life is WAAAAAYYY easier than writing my take home final paper!
I’m stuck!! Dunno how to continue already!! It’s due tomorrow at noon (in 17hours) and I have a looooooong way to go!!! How am I going to study for IE413 like that??? Spending the whole weekend on this Political Science paper!!!!
Why didn’t I choose an easier class for my SSH like a normal person. Why la…??? This super-sesat engineer… tssk tssk tskk.. I don’t know how many times people gave me some funny looking face whenever they learn that I’m taking that class…
.: I am an abnormal person… LahBoh!
What is obvious?
Just because somethings are obvious to you, doesn’t mean that it is obvious to all.
We have been getting this from our senior design professor — the one and only Leslie Potter for a whole semester now when we are writing our report…
“Make sure there’s no holes”
“Don’t assume that the reader knows what you mean if you did say exactly what you mean”
“Don’t take for granted that your audience gets what you tell them the way you intend for them to get it”
Yes, IE441 really prepares an engineering student to become an engineer. Not only that, the class somehow prepares you for the real world out there…Thank you Leslie!
“The world is not divided into black & white. It is filled with shades of grey.”
Sometimes, things that you do, think and/or feel is right all these while may turn out to be wrong after coming back to it in a day, a week, a month or a year. Some may even take a few years. We are all human, and we are all imperfections. The point is to learn from your mistakes and constantly improve yourself in every way you know how.
Yes, getting it sooner is better than later. But the worse is that you never realize at all that you are fault, or refuse to do so. What’s worse is to put the blame on others and convince yourself that others are in the wrong while you are the one who have done the damages. When you think that you have never been wrong, that where you went wrong…
“The worst part of an argument is the part when you realize that you are wrong…” — TooNs, ISU
I read that in thought that it’s so funny yet so true… I’ve made several mistakes and I know it. I am willing to face them, fix them and learn from them.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The world is a funny place. Isn’t it weird how sometimes (most of the time) the one who is in the process of stabbing someone else’s back gets the pat on the back & sympathy from others?
The world is a funny place. Sometimes, all your good intentions are redundant, but slight imperfect way you do things (because you care) are magnified till the point you are labeled “the devil”… (& etc.)
Oh yes… The world IS a funny place… Sometimes…
Being too nice means getting shit from people & being taken advantage of
Being too conservative means being unfriendly/not sociable
Being too friendly means being labeled as “fake”
Being too sociable means being labeled as “wild/party girl”
Being harsh & impolite sometimes means having self defense
Opening up to people sometimes means not being unable to keep things private or labeled “attention freak”
Keeping some matters private & not airing your dirty laundry sometimes gives people more reason to hate you… (something I’ve recently learned, thanks to my not-so-obvious-good-friend)
Letting people in & caring about them means giving them the red carpet to stab you in the chest!
~The list goes on!~
~~To be continued~~
