Meow meow

Group consultation:

"Oh, you are the twin is it?"

*nods*

"Dion, did your sister do anything? Don't try to protect her."

Sir, please.

New sleeping record: 5am. *pops confetti* We did really last minute work for our Creative Studies' final assignment. Mr. Radzi was disappointed because the quality of our work was bad. Sis, Jessica and Miow consulted him yesterday (please do not consult before the submission date like us) and he was thoroughly disappointed. Sis once told me that Mr. Radzi recognizes us both and Jessica because of our journals - we wrote long entries. I think he liked it. :)


"These are not the girls I know from the journal. Bring them back."

With just that, we were motivated simply because our efforts were recognised; we shall not give in! So yesterday, we worked on the assignment (2 mindmaps and an essay) from 8pm to a little before 5am. This meant that I successfully stayed awake for 21 hours as I woke up before 8am that morning for class. *pats self on back*


It was enjoyable though - the motivation and dedication was there. :) If only all my groups would be like this next time, I would be truly grateful. I didn't mind staying up this late (or early) if I feel like my efforts won't be wasted. We put a lot of effort though, for such a last minute thing. We joked that we should have named our group 'Effortless Effort' shortened to 'EE' because our work doesn't look last minute at all haha.


Gonna give myself a good rest even though I still have loads to do. Better than breaking down later. Ken and Jared was nice yesterday by accompanying us in the canteen when we did our assignment. I would say that Jessica, Miow, Adaline, sis and I make a good team. :) I like it. And extra thanks to Ken for staying with us until the canteen lights went off and the door between the hostels close (he had to take the long way back).

Finished mind maps!

Just hung out with sis and Giang in the canteen. Bought Gloria Jeans coffee and cake but couldn't finish the cake because of too much cheese and I wanted to vomit from exhaustion. At least Mr. Radzi accepted our idea and was impressed by our handwritten essay. Now I can be at ease. No, wait - we have to submit our compositions for the ideas on Monday. OK.

Consultation
This is just a quarter of the people waiting outside Mr. Radzi's office.
Consulting lecturers feel like going to hospital for check ups because you don't know whether your result this time will come out good or bad.

Nap time!

~*~*~*~

Gastric yesterday evening while waiting for sis to come back from her assignment's filming for dinner. Went down to the canteen to get some chocolates from Giang because he heard that it will make the gastric better. Wow, so touched.


Rahman and Sam were eating dinner and I went over to greet them. In just a short while, fate brought half of the swimming club members to the canteen. I met Panda and Edmund too. It was like a coincidental meeting - was nice. :) I am a little beh song at Edmund because I wanted to pay for our drinks at lunch but then he secretly inserted RM5 in my bag. =.= No wonder Kei from the next table was smiling cheekily at me when normally he is an emo and passive guy. Something must be up, but I dismissed it. 

"She's angry at me already!" This Edmund just had to tell everyone. I told him it will be the last time I call him out for meals because he always pays and I strongly believe in equality. I don't want him to just use his money; I want to pay too. He seemed hurt after I said that, and he was quiet. Stop making me feel awkward omg... They said that if I'm angry at him, feel free to hit him. @.@ Giang even stepped aside and welcomed me to do it. Oh God why. 

Later I told him I wasn't angry but he said I look angry. OK la, just a bit annoyed - it feels like when you settled everything in a group project and last minute someone changed something. 

On Fridays Gloria Jeans is 20% off. We didn't know that - we had a 20%-off voucher to spend and it expires tomorrow so we went. Found out we can only use the voucher not on a Friday because obviously that can't give it to you that cheap. Maybe go tomorrow... but my money. *cries* Bought Oreo cheesecake.


Giang Secret Cam
He just likes doing this so, so much.
I have a lot of derp pictures because of him.

From a few days ago (that's a singlet inside).
That's Ken beside me.

From today

Whenever I look at my phone or sis's phone or his phone's camera roll, I wanted to scream so badly. Some of it is so unglam I don't have the courage to put it here.

Shiaaat, so sleepy now. The nap I took was just 3 hours with occasional wake up intervals. Not really a good quality nap - woke up feeling drowsy but had to drag myself to bathe before going down to dinner with Giang because I felt itchy and hot. Met Ken and Jared again and the four of us sat together. It was a calm/relaxing/peaceful/quiet dinner where we just look at cats and talk about normal stuff. My harem hahahaha.

Then I sat at the canteen until 10 (waiting for Mom to come) while Ken accompanied me. Giang had to go out with friends, and Jared is supposed to complete his Pusheen for Eli but wanted to sleep. Ken played Candy Crush in my phone and I just practically sat there staring off into space and talking about whatever came into my mind, passively. I really don't know what to talk with him because he is so chill. Nice experience though.  

Shall sleep now and rush my Creative English assignment tomorrow morning before my dentist appointment. Hope everything goes well!
