Yeah, so I'm not really one to celebrate the overly commercialized Valentine's Day or anything, but to those of you who do, have a great day. ;)

I have no plans for today, apart from dinner with my dad. Wazir and I will go out another day.

I love you dear.

There seems to be a great deal of fireworks and lion dances happening at Mont'Kiara these few days. I suppose it's to mark the end of this Chinese New Year. Happy Chap Goh Mei, you guys.

I tried to take a few pictures but I've got shaky hands. :(


This was last night at the Plaza.


Err. Yeah. This is a very warped-looking Desa Sri Hartamas, because I couldn't keep my hands steady. :P

I just realized something. As hard as I try each semester, I never seem to get more than a B- for my Design Studio class. I've taken this class 3 semesters at Cenfad and my grade has always been a B- or a C+. For most of my classes, the grades increased slightly each semester, seeing as I probably made a few improvements. But this one is always stagnant. It's sickening.

But yea, design is difficult. Design is so subjective. If I can't do well at such a small college like Cenfad, imagine if I were studying somewhere else. Gosh. The thought of it is overwhelming.

A talk with Wazir today made me realize why I can't seem to do well for this class. I can't visualize crap. Sure, I can sketch; I can draw. But only if the object is directly in front of me. I can't visualize what an object looks like; without having to think real hard. I can't drive well because I can't seem to visualize and remember roads. I've been to the chiropracter like approximately 10 times and I couldn't direct Wazir there today.

Dammit.

Name five of life's simple pleasures that you like most, then pick five people to do the same. Try to be original and creative and not use things that someone else has already used:

1. Love. Makes the world go round.

2. Watching tv and snacking in the middle of the night with my mum.

3. Lying in bed snuggling with Wazir.

4. Lepaking with friends.

5. Taking time off to work on crafting.

And I tag :: My new friend Ah Ling [I just realized that she's done it], Kei Li, Sun, Audrey, Sonia and Shuen.

In a blink of the eye, my 5 week holiday has ended. I have to head back to Cenfad this Monday, at 9.30am. And I just found out that I have to attend prayers from midnight to 3/4am Monday morning. The inhumanity!

So, let's recap all that's happened over the last month or so.

I had to find a site for my studio project next semester. My father and stepmom got married. I had a few real clients and made some money doing manicures. I bought more materials and worked a little on my polymer and jewellery making. I downloaded lots of Family Guy, American Dad, Drawn Together, Gilmore Girls and Veronica Mars on the laptop. I met up with quite a number of ex-Cempakan classmates. I spent a lot of time with Wazir.

All in all I had fun. It's sad that my lazing around has to come to an end. :P

Anyway, Chinese New Year this year was not too bad. I got more money due to the recent wedding and the expansion of my family, lol. Spent the 2nd and 3rd year of the new year at Genting with my dad, stepmom, sister and err step-uncles, step-aunts and step-grandparents[??]. It was really crowded, but still, a nice change from the extreme heat that's engulfed KL lately.

I'd better be getting along to write my site proposal. It's going to be back to college and lots of course work very very soon. Have a great weekend you guys. :)
