Not really of all things but of most things to me.
For one thing, my universities applications are done and submitted already and I just have to wait patiently for the reply letters to arrive in the next three to four weeks. Hopefully they'll arrive earlier so that I can get my student visa done too in time. Will have to make another trip back to IDP to enquire about accomodations and lodgings when I do get my firm offer letter. Please let me get into Sydney, please.
Regarding my last entry, I was a bit not right in the head as I was partially awake then due to lack of solid food in my body at the time. I'm feeling much better now after several square meals and multiple doses of coffee and milo. The third semester started last week and tutorials begin this week. Assignments are soon due in less than a month and I have twelve hours of lectures and four hours of tutorials a week for the next eight months. How wonderful when you factor in the finals being scheduled in the first week of December. Sigh. Considering I only have to do two subjects; Business Law and Organisations and Management, it doesn't sound too bad, right? I couldn't be more wrong. I don't mind Law as most of the things being taught in class are what I already learned last semester and during SAM last year. However, MGT100 is a whole different matter. The moment I enter lectures, I instantly want to nod off and doze the whole three hours away. Me being the lazy girl that I am, actually convinced myself that I don't need to stay the whole lecture but leave after the first hour during break to go home. The lecturer hasn't suspected me and my accomplices ditching classes yet but I think I better start reading up on the material myself at home to make up for those lost hours. The text isn't any better except that I don't automatically want to sleep when I read about leadership or work delegation. If only I could get exempted from doing this subject. I have a bad premonition too about my grade regarding this subject. I can't seem to get on well with subjects whose codes start with M like MKT100 and MGT100. I only hope I don't fail for this one.
Right, enough of the ragging. I didn't manage to take the French lessons that I really would like to. My conscience just wouldn't let me forget about what might happen if I screw up Law in this semester. So, I'm hoping also at the same time that if, and only if, I get offered a scholarship I'd want to take up French lessons in the university itself. Sounds pretty silly but I feel that it would be a nice addition to my so-called future daily life in Australia. Damn it. I'm planning too far ahead again. But yeah, a scholarship would be really nice and accomodating so that my parents won't have to spend so much for me.
Do you think I should sponsor a child in India? The whole World Vision thing during the famine sort of got me feeling for those less fortunate there. I don't want to elaborate too much on it but I'd gladly tell you about it in person. I just have to fork out RM50 a month from my allowance to save a child. Wow, that whole fasting thing really changed me just that slightly from an indifferent individual to a less indifferent one with a more compassionate heart. What is happening to me? Next, I'll be volunteering at hospitals and animal shelters. That's a weird little scenario.
My iPod dream has not faded the least bit still. I've been saving up to get my hands on the black and red U2 one at the end of the year. My mission is to be happily listening to one before I depart for my yet to be really happening university life. Oh, and the Apple iBook is starting to look really enticing and attractive now that I've lost all faith in anything related to Microsoft. I'm convinced that Gates made a deal with the devil to become what he is today in return to make everyone's lives a living hell on earth using his products of destruction and mayhem. The glimmer of hope has evaporated and I swear that all those in agreement with me can understand my sentiments.
On a lighter note, I've been not very secretly watching JLU cartoons on Saturday mornings in which I purposely get up just slightly earlier than I normally would on weekends. It's a guilty pleasure of mine in which I hate to admit but it's always fun to watch Batman and company beat up the baddies in more ways than one once a week to lessen any stress that I've been penting up with if I ever do have any. Now, why did I just announce that to the whole world to read. Darn my inconspicuous nature to hang my dirty laundry to dry. Not literally of course since I don't even do my own laundry. Which I will have to when I start living on my own.
