to prove that my not-laziness was not a shortlived spurt of misplaced energy(misplaced,because i cld have used that energy to watch tv,or sleep.yes,sleep takes energy.figure it out yourself :p), i will try my best (aka give up after awhile anyway) to post every week.
haa haa haa.
anyways, i just finished my first week of the second sem.and i already have homework for every single class i go to.hmm,no doubt there was some wisdom in my frens practice of just not going to class.but then i would piss my lecturers off, and then i would probably fail the course, because art is subjective and if the lecturer hates your subjective guts you will subjectively fail.as the much-unloved prof h used to say Life Is Not Fair.duh.
so i'm now taking a minor!hah!and my minor is Fine Arts!double hah.i am now allowed to call myself an artist (artist artist!!just like constable and botticelli!!),despite the fact that i have never acually painted anything resembling a work of art.alas, this comes at a price.the very expensive price of paintbrushes,paints and stuff to paint on.such is life.

my new template

okay,due to my total incapability to utilize that dmn blogskin template, i have turned to the pink side.i have nothing against pink.it's better than, say, neon green.or boring black.or poo brown.eventually, of course,i will change it.harharhar.if i ever figure out how to.

update!

i have decided to update my blog, because my mum accused me of being lazy. i could, of course, do other stuff to prove that i am not lazy, like design the t-shirt for the exco citrawarna or the one for the debate union, like i'm supposed to do, but since i am sitting here in front of a computer with nothing much to do (which is almost the same as avoiding doing a lot of stuff), i might as well kill two birds with one keyboard.
if you're wondering what the birds are, it is a) banishing my mother's assumption that i am a holiday layabout,whichby the way i enjoy being and don't exactly feel the need to defend but unfortunately i still have a conscience (why isnt it pronounced con-science?why con-shuns?why?what inspired the first inquisitive farmer to roll milk about until it became butter?) and b) uh..not sure, but having a) and b) is more impressive than just having a), don't you think?
anyway, i have to be back in uni by the 15th because they lack common sense, and because i have to register, so i went this morning with my grandpa to buy bus tickets.i a practically an old pro at riding a bus.it is not exactly something to be proud of.i hate travelling.on anything.travelling is boring, and i hate boring things (including all seasons of superman and the OC).anyway, all tickets to penang before the 18th for konsortium, plusliner etc.,were bought up, for some unfathomable reason, and we had to get tickets from a bus company i had never heard of,kejora.fortunately it was a night bus, so i would probably(hopefully) be too asleep to notice any obvious hideousness.
so, that was pretty much my adventure for the day.oh, and then i bought a box of dunkin donuts,i love dunkins,right up there with burger king but below famous amos and johor mee kari.anyway, they actually had a peanut butter and jelly donut!isnt that cute?!sadly it disappeared in my brothers grasp before i could so much as swipe the peanut butter off the top.evil.

long time

oh yeah, also realised i havent posted in a long time.mostly becasue i have no time whatsoever to post fun stuff!!so, time management is very important once you get into uni. of course you will only find this out truly when you run urself ragged doin asigs last minute, aka multiple near-death experiences.and they say the art faculty lecturers are Nice. Rubbish.kay, some are nice. but they are Not Kind.
oh well. miss you guys lots.cant wait to go to kl for raya!!!oh, uncle bert, aunty hadiah, hannah, kak yumn,and the little boy!oh, and kak nur ;p and mid valley and bb and sungei wang.....and all the keks and biskuts!!!!oh drool.oh joy. :)

my latest assignment!i am so proud of it!isnt it cool isnt it cool isnt it cool???yes i sound lame and skema, but i did the whole thing myself, using an armani ad and the all-powerful pen-tool!!!wahahaha..

the weekend

last weekend i went to gua tempurung under some mahasiswa baru bermasyarakat program which i have no clue about, but it was wicked fun.lots of fun.the cave was incredible!!incredibly tortuous.incredibly dark.and wet.and poky.and big.we went in at like 10 and came out at 5.the weird thing is that you don't even feel it when your down there.i mean u feel hungry, and then you're like, okay, this is lunchtime, but for all you know its 4 o clock and you never realised it.
we got the grand tour, god knows how many platforms.everything was wet and stony or dry and cold.people were still making jokes 6 hours into it.did i mention it was fun?;p
after that we went and did the bermasyarakat part of the thing and dragged our tired asses to some kampung orang asli.the bus couldnt go up so we went up in a lorry.yup.a lorry.that was cool too haha.we slept in the kampong school which was waay cleaner than any school i've been to.it looked like a normal school if anyone was wondering.made of brick and stone and glass.
everyone (NOT including yours truly) stuffed their faces with durian at the durian eating contest that night, and like that wasn't enough torture, they had an asli idol contest.people you never expected came up and sang and i think some people almost keeled over when kak syikin got up and insisted on singing mantera semerah padi.hilarious.and i have proof, too;p
the next day we went to the river!!!i sat under a waterfall!!!it is not something i would encourage other people to do.but it was fun.and the water was so clean!!!
later we had a bunch of asli kids in the school hall for some motivational prog, and then we skedaddled, arriving back at uni at 10 at night.relief.a bed.a shower.no need to lug around two days more worth of stinky clothes.of course, my pengarah projek for the ambang merdeka thing decided to call a meeting at 11.30 so the relief was shortlived.but it was good while it lasted.
next night we had a yayasan sarawak dinner,but only llis, jas and i went.
and then the next day i went looking for my lecturer to beg him to accept my assig that i had passed up late (or so i thought) on friday only to find he hadnt even noticed.jeez.i left it outside his door for gods sake.show some anger!lol.my relief knew no bounds.that's about it so far.i havent flunked any assig.yet.hopefully i wont.coz i like my assigs, i really do.im just laazy.

variasiswa!!!!!

5.aug.2006
we had the variasiswa on the 5th night and it was SO COOL!!!! It was so fun. It was beyond fun. It was the most incredible experience I’ve had in uni. so far. The lights! The makeup! The music! The noise!! There was lots of noise. Mostly made by my desa reps. Haahaa.
The night starts at 9, but they drag you down for rehearsal at 8 in the morning, and then they let you sleep til 5, which is when they slap on the makeup.i had my makeup done by 4 people, because each one after the other thought I didn’t have enough makeup. Really. Lol. After that everyone looked like Alice in Wonderland:the Musical rejects. With glitter.
Our hero and heroine, elmy and biha, looked like they were knocked on the head with a sack of stardust, and the rest of us couldn’t escape the inevitability of looking like extras on Fairy Night Live. Abang ee was so enthusiastically thorough it took two days for everyone to get rid of the damned stuff. Me and two friends went for the Sarawak Society round island trip serba berkelipan. Fortunately, not so obvious in the day time la.
So at 8.30 they herded us off to the DTSP (dewan tunku syed putra, where everything and titas happens), where we met people who looked even more OTT, and we were grateful for that ;p. The persembahan2 was by each desa, and our lottery rep pulled the last no (ELEVEN) for us. So we sat through 10 plays, dances and musicals before our turn, and just watching them made us tired. Mostly because abg ee and elmy would stand up and cheer, dance and make lots of noise (and whose actions we all would dutifully mimic, having nothing else better to do through the 10 performances. Plus it was lots of fun) at every opportunity. I mean every. Music would be playing for the stage show and all of a sudden the two rows at the back would be standing up and, I don’t know, maybe you could call it dancing, and laughing and singing. Insanity. The other desas were so boring. They should have given us a prize for being the most spirited. Or a prize just to shut us up. Haha.
Anyway, we didn’t win, but it didn’t really matter. 9 other desas didn’t win and I can’t even remember who did lol. After that there was an excess of picture taking. Thank god for my camera!!!i will have eternal memories. Seeing as my god given memory is notoriously lousy. Yay!Yay!
Everyone was too lazy to walk out for dinner so we accepted (haha) the free food and melepaked in the bilik gerakan. After that, most people went back to their rooms, except those who were still itching with excitement. That would include me. So someone switched on the radio and I went around recording people dancing. Or trying to dance. It was hilarious. I’d show it here but I’d have to ask everyone’s permission to publicly humiliate them on the net.
That’s about it, I guess. I can totally understand why some people just love being in theatre. It isn’t so much the actual acting but the family-ness you end up having with your fellow ‘actors’ and ‘technicians’. Seriously. After practicing with these people every night from 10 to 1 nearly 3 weeks in a row, you can’t help but miss them (you also can’t help but sleep at 2, because your body clock is so messed up). I know they’ll probably never read this, but here goes: love you guys, and thanks for the most funnest experience ever!! May we all be able to sleep normally someday. Probably after the ambang merdeka thing…oh man.

assigs

i have finally mastered de scanner!!well, not exactly masteredlah, but it sort of does what i want it to do.like, scan stuff.so i scanned my lovely faustine.(de loveliness is of course relative, seein as the lady lacks a face, arms and visible limbs. isnt her dress nice though;p) i mean, i hope her pic shows up, otherwise i'll leave it to your imagination..wooooo.
