Whoo. I'm still having fun playing with the handphone though the novelty has worn out a little too.
Orientation day at HELP Institute for my first year Bachelor of Business/Commerce will commence next Monday. I can't wait for it actually. I was absolutely dreading the first day of SAM last year but now I can't wait to start this uni type of life. Going to classes at odd hours rather than attending classes ala school system. Maybe because I had a fairly short time of holidays last year and didn't get to enjoy it as much as I wanted to. Oh well. I have a feeling that I'll be seeing a few of my college mates from SAM at HELP too. It'll be fun getting back together as well. Hee.
Today was my grandmother's birthday dinner and the family together with my other two relatives families went to the Ming Room at Bangsar Shopping Centre. Or is it Complex? Anyways, it was a nice dinner where the topics of conversation ranged mainly from cars to handphones and of course focusing some of our attention to the baby of the extended family, Kye-Li, the beloved cousin of mine. Oh and I finally get to watch Finding Neverland with the DVD the cousin lent me today. Yay! Ooh, and I think I got a new favourite kuih to enjoy now. The round, soft and sesame covered ball and stuffed with warm black sesame filling kuih tasted really good as desert for tonight's dinner.
So only nine days to go before my so-called break is over. What to do? Oh what to do? Seeing I am running out of cash, I can't really do much shopping anymore. That's sad. I suppose a little spring cleaning and getting ready for next week is in order. But then again I'll only have classes for like two weeks before it'll be the Chinese New Year holidays and more gluttonous eating and snacking wil resume. The major filler of my last week of freedom will be frequent sporadic reading sessions of the Chronicles of Narnia. I like the name Aslan. A lot. Very strange of me to like a name so much actually. And I actually finished reading the second book in this seven book series thing, "The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe" in a day. I didn't realise I actually finished it and couldn't believe it for a while. It was a nice story. It'll be fun to watch it being immortalised on screen. I can't give much away but I can say that C.S. Lewis's writing style is like a mesh of Tolkien and Lewis Caroll's. By the way Lewis Caroll was the author of the famous children's classic, "Alice in Wonderland" and "Through the Looking-Glass". I have a feeling I'm going to be raving about these books for a while now. Just look away when the words, "Narnia", "Aslan", and "White Witch" appear.
It's been a slow week and not much to report. I feel strangely strained having to come out with witty one-liners and clever anecdotes. I think it's called blogger's block. So, goodbye and goodnight. Tonight's Queer Eye episode was really fun and funny. I feel like eating stuffed turkey and seedless grapes in whipped cream with marshmallows now.
