			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Three things.</p>
<p>1.   PMS&#8217; a b*tch. Stop bugging me and come out already <strong>Mr Moon</strong>!!!</p>
<p>2.   I&#8217;m a freaking human being. I have feelings. Nobody likes being a last resort and so do I. I might always be there for you, but I can also tell when I&#8217;m being treated as a <strong>&#8220;<em>last resort</em>&#8220;</strong>. I don&#8217;t appreciate people taking advantage of my weakness just because I&#8217;m a <strong>&#8220;<em>good friend</em>&#8220;</strong> to you. If you think you might be one of &#8216;em, take a hint!</p>
<p>3.   I have mountains of work right now but my right hand wrist up to the right side of my cervical just won&#8217;t stop hurting!! <strong>GAH!!</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I know, I know.. It&#8217;s been a while since I&#8217;ve updated. I&#8217;m sorry. Last week was pretty hectic. 1<sup>st</sup> week back to campus and we already have to propose our ideas for our <strong>FYP</strong>. I started the research wayyy back during the holidays but still I couldn&#8217;t finish it before I got back to campus. And my shoulder blade have been hurting pretty much since I got back because I had to carry my freaking heavy stuff to my room and as I went for swimming on <em>Sunday</em>, totalled up with the tiredness, it got worse and my right hand is practically disabled right now to move properly.</p>
<p>Plus, with my thesis proposal submission next week along with the gantt chart and research questions, you can say that I&#8217;m pretty much a busy bee currently. So, please be a <em>dear</em> and <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>try</strong></span> to understand the situation here. I don&#8217;t appreciate people harassing me at Y!M asking me to update when I&#8217;m doing my <strong><em>work</em></strong>. I&#8217;ll update whenever I can. Yes, I&#8217;m very touchy right now. Ever heard of PMS? If you&#8217;re a girl, you would understand why, right?</p>
<p>So anyways, let&#8217;s get down to business&#8230; As you can see from the title, I&#8217;ve been tagged by my close friend.</p>
<p>Since this is the first tag that I&#8217;ve done in this blog EVER, I&#8217;m pretty enthusiastic about doing this tag.</p>
<p>So here goes&#8230;</p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-decoration: underline;"><strong>16 Random Things About Me<br />
</strong></span></p>
<ol>
<li>I am an avid swimmer. I have always loved water. It used to be when I was small, I can&#8217;t hear or see the word <em><span style="color: #31849b;"><strong>Swimming Pool</strong></span><br />
</em>or my parents would be the victims of my embarrassing requests to swim at which ever swimming pool we came across. Even closed or private ones like the ones at a Country Club and whatnots. When I got bigger, it was a must because I&#8217;m an asthmatic. And no, I don&#8217;t do competitions because I was not well trained back then. Only when I was in form five did I get proper training with a <strong>Rakan Muda</strong> trainer. So it was kind of already too late.</li>
<li>I don&#8217;t usually advertise this but I&#8217;m a singer. I join competitions and I perform as well. Once, I joined a Malay talent time competition in <strong>MMU</strong> called <span style="color: #948a54;"><strong><em>GEMA</em></strong></span> in 2007 and won 3<sup>rd</sup> place. The competition itself got a media coverage from <span style="color: #ffc000;"><strong>HYPE!</strong></span> Magazine for a one page spread and my face was amongst the faces that were displayed in that page.</li>
<li>I have a bad habit that I love to pick the dead skin around my nails and dead skin on my lips. Yes, very very bad habit.</li>
<li>If a person ask me what my favourite colour is, the answer will change from time to time. See, I have these seasons of colours for myself when I feel a certain pull towards a certain colour or colours. Like currently, I&#8217;m into <span style="color: blue;"><strong>Electric Blue</strong></span>, <span style="color: #31849b;"><strong>Teal</strong></span> and <span style="color: #00b0f0;"><strong>Turquoise</strong></span> while previously I was into <span style="color: #663300;"><strong>Brown</strong></span> and before that I was into <span style="color: #ff6699;"><strong>Pink</strong></span> for a very, very long time.</li>
<li>I&#8217;m a bad tempered person. So don&#8217;t test my temper when I don&#8217;t seem like myself. You might not want to know what will happen if I <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>do</strong></span> lose my temper.</li>
<li>I have 10 more random things about me that I have to list.</li>
<li>I currently have 6 grown cats and 6 kittens at home and I love &#8216;em all to bits especially my dear adorable <strong><em>Chiro</em></strong>.</li>
<li>My favourite series are dominated by crime investigation series like <strong><em>Criminal Minds</em></strong>, <strong><em>CSI</em></strong> and the new funny series <strong><em>The Mentalist.</em></strong></li>
<li>My current favourite series is <strong><em>The Legend of the Seeker</em></strong>.</li>
<li>I am currently having a fever.</li>
<li>I am currently reading a thesis proposal andddd trying to finish this freaking tag.</li>
<li>My eczema is creeping on my skin again. <span style="color: red;"><strong>HELP!</strong></span></li>
<li>Ok now I&#8217;m getting bored doing this.</li>
<li>I still have another tag for me to do.</li>
<li>I&#8217;m going to tag 3 people to do this just to torture them like I was tortured. MUAHAHAHA. Nah, kidding. I&#8217;m tagging just for fun. I&#8217;m tagging these people; <a title="My Daily Tantrums" href="http://princessmia8523.livejournal.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #31849b;"><strong><em>Mia</em></strong></span></a>, <a title="Mysteries of Life" href="http://mylittleblackjournal.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #31849b;"><strong><em>Deena</em></strong></span> </a>and <a title="Dear Diary" href="http://nieja.kronikus.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #31849b;"><strong><em>Nieja</em></strong></span> </a>and the choice is up to them if they want to do this tag or not.</li>
<li>I am <strong>DONE</strong>!</li>
</ol>
<p>I guess that&#8217;s it for now.</p>
<p>Toodles!</p>

<p>A very happy belated birthday to my dear best friend, <span style="color: #5f497a;"><strong><em>Wani</em></strong></span> who turned 22 on <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #800080;"><em>4th of November 2008</em></span></span></strong></p>
<p>No, I did not forget her birthday nor did I missed it. I&#8217;m just wishing her now on my blog because I&#8217;m only updating it now.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>**WARNING: Long post ahead with lots and I do mean LOTS of pictures! Only proceed if you&#8217;re willing to be bored by them *grins* **</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #3366ff;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>**Also please do click on them pictures to get a larger view**</strong></span></span></p>
<p>On Saturday, I texted her boyfriend asking him whether he&#8217;s planned anything at all for her birthday.</p>
<p>So together with <span style="color: #e36c0a;"><em>Ezzat</em></span> (the bf), <span style="color: #e36c0a;"><em>Zana</em></span> (her good friend from Poly) and me we planned a surprised birthday bash for my dearest BFF of 10 years to be held at <span style="color: #c00000;"><strong><a title="TGI Friday's Malaysia" href="http://www.fridays.com.my/" target="_blank">T.G.I.F</a> Johor Bahru @ JOTIC. </strong></span>Quite surprisingly, both the bf and me had the same idea of celebrating her birthday at TGIF.</p>
<p>Thanks to <a title="Mencari Pelangi" href="http://totinx.kronikus.com" target="_blank">Totin</a> for her information about TGIF. Apparently I wouldn&#8217;t have needed it because the moment we stepped into TGIF holding a box of cake, the waiter immediately asked us if we&#8217;re having a birthday celebration and that he would take care of it. A very, very good service indeed.</p>
<p>So the story goes like this&#8230;</p>
<p>Sharp at 12 AM 4<sup>th</sup> of November my alarm started going off reminding me of my BFF&#8217;s birthday and I decided not to wish her happy birthday as part of the surprised. The plan was that I was supposed to go out at 8.30 PM that night and pick up Zana along the way to TGIF.</p>
<p>But at <strong>8.30 PM </strong>- I was not ready yet and Ezzat was already harassing me to get out quickly as he was afraid if he stalled she would realised that something&#8217;s up. I told him to do whatever it takes to stall because I need more time.</p>
<p><strong>8.45 PM</strong> - (A record made: I managed to put on a full make up for 15 minutes only) I got out of the house and rushed to pick up Zana first (Thank God her house was on the way to TGIF). I hit about almost every humps on the road because I was rushing and didn&#8217;t see the damn humps because the road was dark. Damn you, MBJB. Put more lights on the roads please la wei!</p>
<p><strong>8.55 PM</strong> - <span style="color: #e36c0a;"><em>Ezzat</em></span> called asking me about my whereabouts and I told him I&#8217;m almost reaching Bukit Saujana (where <span style="color: #e36c0a;"><em>Zana</em></span> lived. Also where I used to live) and thank God my BFF have just arrived to pick him.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Zana" rel="lightbox[%gallery=1%]" href="http://naniemk.pixadot.net/wp-content/gallery/bday_wani/3.jpg"><img class="ngg-singlepic ngg-center aligncenter" src="http://naniemk.pixadot.net/wp-content/gallery/bday_wani/3.jpg" alt="Zana" width="230" height="346" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Zana</p>
<p><strong>9.10 PM</strong> - We were already seated at the non-smoking section and then we ordered some drinks while waiting for the couple to arrive.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Apple juice" rel="lightbox[%gallery=1%]" href="http://naniemk.pixadot.net/wp-content/gallery/bday_wani/2.jpg"><img class="ngg-singlepic ngg-center aligncenter" src="http://naniemk.pixadot.net/wp-content/gallery/bday_wani/2.jpg" alt="Apple Juice" width="230" height="346" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The Apple Juice</p>
<p><strong>9.20 PM - </strong><span style="color: #e36c0a;"><em>Ezzat</em></span> arrived alone and we were like&#8230; <span style="color: #31849b;"><em>&#8220;Why are you alone?? Where&#8217;s the birthday girl??&#8221;</em></span></p>
<p><span id="more-137"></span></p>
<p><strong>9.25 PM</strong> – <span style="color: #e36c0a;"><em>Ezzat</em></span> texted my BFF asking her to come up. He had asked her to wait in the car telling her that he&#8217;s meeting his friend to pass him something. And then he went to get her. Apparently the birthday girl was sulking as none of us (her closest friends and even her bf) had really wished her a happy birthday yet as part of the surprise.</p>
<p><strong>9.45 PM</strong> – The couple finally came back and guess what? Hell, she was surprised to see us there. As soon as she walked near our table and turned her head around, she stopped dead on her track and started pinching and hitting her bf calling him a liar while she half-smiled. At that moment we (<span style="color: #e36c0a;"><em>Zana</em></span> and me) couldn&#8217;t control ourselves anymore that we laughed at her</p>
<p><strong>9.50 PM</strong> – Everyone settled in and I must say that despite the sulky face and the pouts my BFF put on, I knew that she was really happy</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Birthday girl sulking that she was not in on the surprise. Hey, if you were, it wouldn't be a surprise would it? Haha" rel="lightbox[%gallery=1%]" href="http://naniemk.pixadot.net/wp-content/gallery/bday_wani/4.jpg"><img class="ngg-singlepic ngg-center aligncenter" src="http://naniemk.pixadot.net/wp-content/gallery/bday_wani/4.jpg" alt="Sulking" width="230" height="346" /></a></p>

<p style="text-align: center;">The happy couple</p>
<p><strong>10.00 PM</strong> – We ordered our foods. And while waiting, the birthday girl gets to open her present from her beloved boyfriend</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Carefully unfolding her present" rel="lightbox[%gallery=1%]" href="http://naniemk.pixadot.net/wp-content/gallery/bday_wani/6.jpg"><img class="ngg-singlepic ngg-center aligncenter" src="http://naniemk.pixadot.net/wp-content/gallery/bday_wani/6.jpg" alt="Present opening" width="230" height="346" /></a></p>

<p style="text-align: center;">Sizzling Chicken and Cheese</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>11.00 PM</strong> – The cake came out and the birthday girl had to sing her favourite song and guess what song did she sang? Twinkle, twinkle little stars&#8230;.. (=.=) I know&#8230; and then the staff of TGIF sang her a happy birthday song and we pack up the cake as TGIF is already closing and we&#8217;re all freaking full and we left around <strong>11.20PM</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="The birthday girl refused to sing for us." rel="lightbox[%gallery=1%]" href="http://naniemk.pixadot.net/wp-content/gallery/bday_wani/15.jpg"><img class="ngg-singlepic ngg-none aligncenter" src="http://naniemk.pixadot.net/wp-content/gallery/bday_wani/15.jpg" alt="Refusing to sing" width="230" height="346" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">One huge microphone for the birthday girl. It&#8217;s no wonder she refuses to sing. Haha</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Singing twinkle twinkle little star. Finally she sings!

<p style="text-align: center;">Singing <span style="color: #fa60a1;"><strong><em>twinkle twinkle little stars</em></strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Singing her happy birthday!" rel="lightbox[%gallery=1%]" href="http://naniemk.pixadot.net/wp-content/gallery/bday_wani/17.jpg"><img class="ngg-singlepic ngg-center aligncenter" src="http://naniemk.pixadot.net/wp-content/gallery/bday_wani/17.jpg" alt="Happy birthday to you~" width="230" height="346" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">While we were singing her happy birthday</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Make a wish dear!" rel="lightbox[%gallery=1%]" href="http://naniemk.pixadot.net/wp-content/gallery/bday_wani/18.jpg"><img class="ngg-singlepic ngg-center aligncenter" src="http://naniemk.pixadot.net/wp-content/gallery/bday_wani/18.jpg" alt="Make a wish" width="230" height="346" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Make a wish dear~</p>

<p style="text-align: center;">The cake. Sponsored by me. Ehehe. Chocolate &amp; Blueberry</p>
<p>All in all, I must say good service from <span style="color: #c00000;"><strong>TGIF JOTIC, JB</strong></span>. The food was good too except for my <span style="color: #76923c;"><strong><em>Sizzling Chicken and Cheese</em></strong></span> chicken which was kinda dry. But thanks to the staff for turning the night into a real birthday bash.</p>
<p>Thanks to Ezzat and Zana for making this happen although it was kinda of a last minute plan. I had fun although it was a small celebration that comprises of only four people. Who cares? As long as we had fun and managed to give the birthday girl a really <span style="color: #7030a0;"><strong><em>HAPPY BIRTHDAY</em></strong></span> *wink*</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Nani &amp; Wani" rel="lightbox[%gallery=1%]" href="http://naniemk.pixadot.net/wp-content/gallery/bday_wani/20.jpg"><img class="ngg-singlepic ngg-center aligncenter" src="http://naniemk.pixadot.net/wp-content/gallery/bday_wani/20.jpg" alt="Nani &amp; Wani" width="259" height="346" /></a></p>
<p><span style="color: #5f497a;"><strong><em>And to my dearest BFF: Happy birthday dear! May our friendship lasts another 10 years and beyond. Dah tua dah ye kakkkk&#8230; ehehehe</em></strong></span></p>
<p>Disclaimer: I was the official photographer of that night as you can see there were not so many of my face in the pictures. Pictures are taken with my <strong>Canon EOS 350D DSLR</strong> that&#8217;s still working wonders. I don&#8217;t own a speed light so what I did was I turned on my flash and wrapped a napkin around it to control the flash. The final picture was taken using my <strong>Lumix FZ12</strong>.</p>
<p>(Poyo je la kan nak kene ade disclaimer? Hahaha)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So Mama decided to treat me yesterday since this was my first time to complete Syawal fasting and along with it, my Ramadhan &#8217;s qada&#8217; fasting.</p>
<p>And guess what? She gave me a treat of <span style="color: #31849b;"><strong><em>Murtabak Singapura</em></strong></span></p>
<p><img class="alignnone" title="Murtabak Singapura" src="http://pixadot.net/images/wp/random/murtabak.jpg" alt="Murtabak Singapura" width="360" height="360" /></p>
<p>No, the murtabak is from a stall in <strong>JB</strong>, not from <strong>Singapore</strong> but yeah, the name&#8217;s Murtabak Singapura because it&#8217;s originated from there I guess.</p>
<p>Haha. It suddenly feels like I&#8217;m a child all over again; completing fasting, getting rewards. Well, it sure is rewarding. Ehem, not the murtabak obviously but it&#8217;s the smile and happiness shown across mama&#8217;s face that is.</p>
<p>She looked at me as if I&#8217;m all grown up (not that I&#8217;m not, mind you) and responsible (again, not that I&#8217;m not). It&#8217;s just because I&#8217;ve always complained to <span style="color: #ff6699;"><strong>Mr Akib</strong></span> how my parents always treated me like I&#8217;m still a teenager when in fact I&#8217;m going to be 22 this December. So it&#8217;s really great when mama finally realises that I can take care of myself, be responsible and are all grown up.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>Thank you, ma </em></p>
<p><em>I love you <img src='http://naniemk.pixadot.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </em></p></blockquote>
<p>* * * * * * * * * *</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve finally got the time to fix my blog. But internet is still going haywire. I&#8217;ve called Celcom and now I&#8217;m just going to have to wait for their technician to call me back.</p>
<p>And I&#8217;ve also updated my <a title="The Artworks" href="http://naniemk.pixadot.net/portfolio/" target="_blank">portfolio page</a> with my freelance <em>Copywriting</em> works. Feel free to browse through.</p>
<p>Also, thanks to my dear blog friend; <a title="Simple Kind of Life Blog" href="http://skolblog.com" target="_blank">Abah</a> who introduced the <strong>NextGEN Gallery</strong> to me. For without his suggestion I would&#8217;ve never been able to finish this. Though there&#8217;s something wrong with the plug-in I think. It&#8217;s not working like yours la Abah. <img src='http://naniemk.pixadot.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' /> Tapi takpe, at least it&#8217;s still working.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m dead bored without my series fix; <span style="color: #5f497a;"><strong><em>Gossip girl, Smallville, 90210, Lipstick Jungle, CSI: Miami, Criminal Minds, Crusoe, Merlin, The Mentalist and America&#8217;s Next Top Model Cycle 11</em></strong></span> (I know, that&#8217;s a lot).</p>
<p>Damn you, Celcom Broadband! There&#8217;ll be lots of catching up to do when I go back to Cyberjaya I swear!</p>
<p>I&#8217;m sorry. I know, I know, this is the third entry with complaints on Celcom Broadband.</p>
<p>But I can&#8217;t help it.</p>
<p>I want my series fix! *pouts*</p>
<p>And I want my fast internet connection like before! *stamps feet*</p>
<p>Oh btw, I&#8217;m getting pretty active at <a title="YouthSays" href="http://youthsays.com/go/S4" target="_blank">YouthSays</a>. Do you know that they are the ones who organizes the event <strong>YOUTH&#8217;08</strong>?</p>
<p>Yeah, well I&#8217;m getting free passes to go to the <strong>YOUTH&#8217;09</strong>.</p>
<p>What about you? *winks*</p>
<p>Alrightey. Nitey nites.</p>
<p>Toodles~</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So what happened these past few days as I procrastinate myself more even with the internet super-slow connection?</p>
<p>Hmm&#8230; Let me see&#8230;</p>
<p><span style="color: #e36c0a;"><strong>Mr Akib</strong></span> came home for a few days last Friday.</p>
<p>We did nothing in particular on Friday but we hung out on Saturday till <strong>3 A.M.</strong> at my crib.</p>
<p>Yes, till 3 A.M. and I have parental supervision.</p>
<p>My mother would prefer it if I hang out at home rather than going out until late at night. So, to avoid from being nagged about coming home late, I&#8217;d rather stay home anyway.</p>
<p>At least it&#8217;s more peaceful for us to talk <img src='http://naniemk.pixadot.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>And then on Sunday, we both attend Syawal Open Houses around JB and then at night we had a big fight.</p>
<p>On Monday, we went out to <span style="color: #31849b;"><strong><em>Danga Bay</em></strong></span> and hung out at <span style="color: #31849b;"><strong><em>Danga Bay Beach Club</em></strong></span> while watching the live band perform there. Fantastic performances by them.</p>
<p>Among other things that we watched there was; Malay, Muslim people drinking beer almost all around us.</p>
<p>I was disgusted to watch them drink.</p>
<p>And we hung out till it was <strong>1 A.M.</strong> and he sent me home.</p>
<p>Today, we went out for my break fast (yes, buka puasa) cum dinner. My aunt&#8217;s treat. She passed her JPJ driving test this morning and wants to celebrate with her family.</p>
<p>And then after that we went to <span style="color: #5f497a;"><strong><em>Jusco Tebrau</em></strong></span> for a bit, Mr Akib wants to get his phone back from his sister before he goes back to <span style="color: #5f497a;"><strong><em>Shah Alam</em></strong></span> at <strong>11 P.M.</strong></p>
<p>Then we went to <span style="color: #215868;"><strong><em>Watson&#8217;s</em></strong></span> to get my eyeliner and lip balm since I&#8217;m running out of both.</p>
<p>And after that we went to pick his mother up from work at <strong>9 P.M.</strong> head for his home and I waited while he packed and we got out at around 10 something and reached <span style="color: #365f91;"><strong><em>Larkin Central</em></strong></span> at <strong>10.50 P.M.</strong> and I bid <span style="color: #e36c0a;"><strong>Mr Akib</strong></span> goodbye with a promise that I&#8217;ll be back in <span style="color: #5f497a;"><strong><em>Cyberjaya</em></strong></span> by the end of the week.</p>
<p><em>**I&#8217;m writing in a monotone. It feels stupid. I feel stupid. Heck, you should be feeling like I&#8217;m stupid too. Ha ha.**<br />
</em></p>
<p>Anyways, I did something bad. Well not bad per se. More like, something stupid (again? Yeah, with Nanie, there&#8217;ll always be stupid, stupid things happening around her).</p>
<p>Now you see, I was under the impression that I&#8217;m going back this weekend or Friday to be exact since I&#8217;m moving into a new room and I can only do that during office hours.</p>
<p>So I&#8217;ve started planning on what to get for the groceries shopping, what to pack since it&#8217;s my final two trimesters and I don&#8217;t want to have to carry a whole house back to JB and I&#8217;ve even planned plans for the weekends like; going picnic with my friends at <span style="color: #31849b;"><strong><em>Ulu Yam</em></strong></span> and going to watch <span style="color: #c00000;"><strong>HSM3</strong></span> with <span style="color: #e36c0a;"><strong>Mr Akib</strong></span>.</p>
<p>And not until just now that I looked up at my time table and take a look at the <em>Trimester </em>planner did I realise that my classes starts on <strong>November 10<sup>th</sup></strong> instead of what I thought which was <strong>November 3<sup>rd</sup></strong>.</p>
<p>I had the date mixed up 10 and 01 because I first thought that I&#8217;m going back on the 1<sup>st</sup>.</p>
<p>Apparently, my classes start on the 10<sup>th</sup> and I&#8217;m supposed to go back on 7<sup>th</sup>.</p>
<p>Make sense? No? Well just work with me here. I&#8217;m too stressed out to explain anyway.</p>
<p>So now, I&#8217;ve had everybody and I mean literally everybody on my schedule that I&#8217;ll be going back this weekend.</p>
<p>And now that I&#8217;ve realised that I won&#8217;t be going back this weekend, I&#8217;m going to have a difficult situation trying to explain to everyone especially to <span style="color: #e36c0a;"><strong>Mr Akib</strong></span> whom I&#8217;ve promised to be in his arms by this Friday.</p>
<p>Aaaannnddd&#8230; Now I&#8217;ll be missing him so much because I can&#8217;t see him this weekend.</p>
<p>*cries*</p>
<p>*sigh*</p>
<p>No, I didn&#8217;t cry. I almost did. But I didn&#8217;t.</p>
<p>Oh crap. Whatever, Nanie. Just get on with it.</p>
<p>At least now I don&#8217;t have to rush into things like; <em>packing, renewing my driving license, shopping for groceries and etcetera etcetera</em>.</p>
<p>Oh well, this is what I get when I&#8217;ve no Study Planner (didn&#8217;t get the chance to buy it since I was in JB), not going to classes, nor living in the confines area of MMU.</p>
<p>And I&#8217;ve never been this&#8230; erm&#8230; okay; I&#8217;ve no word for it. I wanted to use &#8220;disorganise&#8221;&#8230; but I&#8217;ve never been THAT organised anyway.</p>
<p>On the bright side, I&#8217;ll have more time to prepare myself mentally and physically.</p>
<p>Okay, I&#8217;m wiped out.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll see ya when I see ya!</p>
<p>Toodles~</p>
<p>P/S: Internet is still ever f*cking slow. It takes forever just to load the dashboard. I&#8217;ll be living boring hell at home if I&#8217;m going to stay here another week since I can&#8217;t download my favourite series anymore without it hacking my connection speed. F*ck you <em><strong>Celcom Broadband</strong></em>! I&#8217;ve been promoting you too much to people to deserve this shitty connection!</p>
