Wow it's gonna start getting hard keeping up with the Page numbers once we enter February hahaha.

Dinner outing with Giang and sis again tonight! Every Friday we seemed to have this ritual where the three of us take the bus and go out for dinner. I never really look forward to it because it wasn't a fixed part of my life, but now that I think about it, yup, we do go out every Friday night. I think I'm more afraid to look forward to it in case we never do that anymore.

Today was a packed day as well, but I felt happy. Well, kind of. Yesterday I was a little happy too. We had Photography submission (only one person got accepted) and Che Mat gave some speech I thought was inspiring while he looked through our work and I had been typing quotes into my phone lol. Habit, habit.

I was dying to go to the toilet so I stood up and went to the door - only to find out that it was locked (to prevent the late comers from coming in). So I was weirdly standing beside the door trying to keep in my laughter along with the other two lecturers there. Dammit, I needed to pee. Me, I was just in time. OTZ Che Mat was a little behind me when I entered the class. Nowadays I submit assignments in the nick of time because I'm constantly rushing them and then run to class.

Picture during CS class (Jessica and Sandy)~

Chocolate (our group's name) got an overall marks of 80% for CS, so I'm kinda happy. Mr Radzi gave us a chance to improve our final picture so that we may boost our marks. We may have to somehow shoot a glass cup... But I don't know how to do that without accidentally hurting someone. We thought of other ways - but hitting two cups together is also dangerous. Ideas, ideas...

Planned to meet up for CG group discussion at 2pm, but Ted over-slept and nobody knows where his room is. He was not picking up his phone either. He's really tired, he told me, because of his English assignment mainly; he slept really late (or 'early' if you get what I mean). I never tell him it's OK because I didn't want him to believe so. I told him he skipped the previous CG class too when we should have been discussion the ideas together. Aril and I waited 30 minutes for him, and then we started without him. I sent Ted a message and by 6pm, he called me back, apologizing. I was on the stairs back to my room and was supposed to bathe and then go out for dinner, but I told him to go to HB2 and I dashed there. And I told him our plans for the assignment. He also contributed some ideas, so it was a little better. 

OK, dinner! Otw to the bus stop, we saw Mr. Amir picking up two classmates. He was waving from the driver seat and we couldn't see who it was at first until we stepped closer lol. Nice car - so shinyyy.

Waited for the bus for about 15 minutes. Longest time yet. I told Giang I feel like he's our father hahaha. Seriously he behaves like a father and call us 'girls' and 'kids'. Every night before I sleep, I would say goodnight to them in the Ionization chat. "Good night girl" he replied yesterday, and my heart was filled with warmth. I kept rereading it.

Ate at Aroi Thai - everything is RM1.90, but there isn't really much choice on the menu.
The portion is small too; some ridiculously so. :/

Before

After

I would recommend not ordering the noodles here. You might reason that it's only RM1.90. but I would say that you'll only get one mouthful. I was speechless when the noodles are literally one mouthful only. But I love the coconut juice; quite worth it. :)

Giang won some lucky draw thing on campus (sometime before I came in) and he had a Starbucks card with RM100 inside and the first ones he spent it on was, TADAA!! - sis and I. :D So grateful at his generosity. Feel so pro first time pay with card at Starbucks because I rarely drink Starbucks. After returning the card to me, I smiled and the cashier smiled back and Giang ahem-ed quite loudly. /father/

"One green tea frapuccino for Fion." Waaah! I have so much whipped cream!! It was filled to the brim and even more. I was so happy with just that because I LOOOVE whipped cream. It was as if all my whipped cream-less (supposed to have whipped cream) drinks' whipped cream quota was filled by this frapuccino.

With the three cups <3

Giang said we look so excited like as if we had never been in Starbucks before. His interpretation and representation of us is so exaggerated lol. He brought his Final Year Project (FYP) to do there and also the kinect sensor thing - so interesting. I took a look at his codes and gave up. So much words.

Bigger because I love the unfocused effect.

I checked my overall marks for English already, and for four exercises/assignments added together, I got 52/55. But still I am not so satisfied... Maybe it's because there are people getting 55/55. If you look at it, 52/55 is quite high - I lost one mark for the storyboard and two marks for the short story trailer only. OK, time to get over it.

Going to Jean's (Mom's friend) place tomorrow to see my baby 'sister'! 

Goodnight everybody. :)
