I’m so tired and it’s just half way of my 2nd semester done for 2007/2008 session. And I have about less then 2 months only before I seat for my examination again. There’s a lot of things needed to be done. And I’m really really tired here, I wish I could just say “Lets stop a while, give me month to energize.” But in reality I can’t do that. Everything is fixed. All the lectures has set the deadlines for everything. It’s not that I’m too lazy to do everything, but that “everything” is too much for me in these short time. I’m really tired. Obvious I had repeated the word “Tired” couple of times already, meaning I’m not joking here. I wish somebody can cheer me up or something. but then even a counselor can’t even help me out here, unless he want to do or help me out with my works.
I can finish all these works; yes I can finish this.
I think I’m not ready to have a pet. There’s a lot of so call responsibility or work or job in need of my attention now. Well unless I’m so desperate to have a pet hehe. Back to my Uni work; I think I should need to list down what I’m suppose to do here, just for a reminder:
Essay or written assignment (4): 1 for Teacher and the school curriculum (wk?), 1 for Principle of Teaching, 1 for English (wk8), Kemahiran dan Pengajaran Jawi (wk?).
Presentations (3): 1 for English (Poster) (wk14), 1 for Kemahiran dan Pengajaran Jawi (wk8), 1 for Science (wk?).
Peer Teaching with Lesson plan (3): 1 for Pendidikan Jasmani (wk?), 1 for English (WK11), 1 for Math (WK10).
There you go. Ten things needed to be done here. And this is crazy. Alhamdulilah, I still have American Idol for my Tea Break. O boy better stop talking about this Uni work.
Supa-Save™ Baiduri Card
So yeah as usual, every month, We have this shop thingi for groceries. And we usually go to Supa Save (Mabohai) and Hotmart (Kiulap) or Jaya Hypermart in Gadong. This month we went to Hotmart and Supa save. And finally this time, my eagerness to sign up for Supa Save Baiduri (Debit) Card. Well I’ve been thinking, since I really love that place, what I mean is that I usually go there and buy some groceries, its an advantage to buy there with rewards using the Supa Save Baiduri Card. So since it’s free why not I assign one. Well with one condition, unless there is no annual fees, I’ll be happy to apply. Because, I do have one debit card already, and every 30 October, I have to pay the annual fee for $19 dollars; and every end of year too, I have another annual fees of $20 dollars for my HSBC atm card. So if this Supa Save Baiduri Card have it’s annual fees, I’ll pass =). So I’m gonna try to call Baiduri Bank tomorrow if I remember.
The Fluffy Mamams, I think it’s Dee’s post.
Ok I have to admit, I’m a loser or a loner too. I {watch movie, I shop, I go to cafe} alone. And I just finish reading Dee’s post, and somehow, I’m happy to be myself, being alone. Well I do have reasons why I like to be alone sometime. I like to watch movie alone because, honestly, I can’t concentrate watching the movie with my friends, positively because I love them so much that I can’t shut up as well. HAHA. ok I Shop alone, Coz, unexpectedly sometime I update my underwear stock, so yeah I like to be alone at that phase. HAHAHA. Cafe alone, because I don’t want to humiliate myself to eat and drink a lot in front of others who knows me. LOL, here’s part of Dee’s post:
“It’s okay to hang out by yourself”
Sometimes I’d go for an aimless drive around some of the most dominated areas in the Brunei district; i.e. Gadong, Kiulap and Bandar. I also like driving around unfamiliar kampong areas and discover new things. I would just cruise around, watching other people driving or walking, leading their own lives. I do that to clear my head, or when I’m really bored, to fill my head with other people’s imaginary life for a while. When I’m either driving or walking around those areas alone, I don’t actually feel alone; it’s as if the strangers are actually accompanying me but they just don’t know that. It’s like being with your ‘friends’, but you don’t actually have to be in a conversation or do anything to enjoy each other’s presence - by hanging out alone, you have the privilege to enjoy whatever you want to do, however you want it.
“Be independent”
His post also mentioned that when some people see you eating alone in a cafe, or walking around at the mall by yourself, or watching a movie by yourself; basically just doing anything by yourself; you would be labeled as a loner or a loser. I call it being independent. He mentioned that those people who dare to show up alone at a cafe or a movie actually have guts to do those sort of stuff, and risk being called a loner+loser. That is, if you actually care what other people think. I personally admire people who dare to go out alone, simply because it shows that they are able to take care of themselves and not worry about what other people think (and in my case, those other people are not important in my life anyways). It’s not that we hang out alone all the time; I’m saying that it’s nice to have a ‘you’ time once in a while outside in public.
“Dating yourself”
I’ve also read an article recently from a magazine, called, “Date yourself for a while”. It’s about being single and being cool about it. And I realize that’s what I’ve been doing lately; dating myself. In the article, it says that by dating yourself for a long length of time (for me, that means a couple of months, leading up to a year) could benefit you in some ways that you would be able to assess yourself without being distracted by ‘coupley’ things or your mates. Face it; when you’re with others, you’d be busy talking about each other’s life that you’d miss out on the little details that goes around you. And hey, being a singleton means you get to flirt too *grinz* a lot ;) lol! I meet a lot of people at the gym, and when I go to other places too. Did you know the Misato restaurant in Kiulap has a cute, erm, sushi-making chef?? (What do you call them anyways? Sushi masters?? LOL! Okay, back to the topic). During my singleton journey, I realized that I am a gym freak and love meeting new people there. And some more discoveries but I’ll keep them to myself and some close buddies.
Lastly I love American Idol
Hey, everyone seems to love David Archuleta (wiki) (website). Well technically few of my friends vote him to become American Idol this season. So seriously and personally, I love that kid too, Great voice, good personality. Well the song he chose during the 2nd day of the Hollywood Week’s Heaven (by Bryan Adams), totally feel me in. I felt sad all the sudden. I guess my sorrow past emotion hit me again, just a random thing hehe. Actually, for him I didn’t not notice his talent at first, because I so busy focusing the women talent 1st. So I guess I’m so latent on the men contestant part. And I actually discovered D.Archuleta talent during his singing Heaven. Lastly I was kinda shock how Alaina Witaker was out so early, if not, she would have become my best friend :( . Oh well Ramiele Malubay and Kristy Lee Cook is WOW too.
