Party in the Fallopian Tubes xD
Question: Why do we need such a huge number of sperm to fertilize an egg?
Answer: The more the merrier.
Eh? A party must be going on in the Fallopian tubes.
hahaAHhahAHahAH!!!!!! *laughing crazily and rolls on the floor with a stomach cramp*
Of Uni life and body aches XD
So it has been a long week indeed ever since lecturers started, apart from the usual 2 hours to reach uni and the waiting for the shuttle bus trips which took forever, everything was pretty okay so far, except I'm gonna expect a few more zits to pop up after the long lectures, tutorials and assignments. Wasn't too sure how to manage it at first, but after what former law lecturer Mrs Dharma told me earlier on, I guess I'll just pace myself and take things at once since I have the tendency to go bonkers and overwhelmed over stressful stuff xD Still, the culture in Uni is definitely different somehow, and not to forget the textbooks that cost waaaay beyond the reasonable prices of college books...well, somethings gotta give...
Now, about the lectures, oh by the way I've managed to allocate one of my tutorials to a 12 pm slot instead of the usual 5 pm slot!!! that's means I wont have to reach home at 7 or 8 anymore!!! yay!!! hahaha...one of the more 'lively' lectures would be International Studies by Mr. Tony and Psychology by Dr. Chan and she's a 'Kiwi', a New Zealander! =D
Management Studies was somewhat tensed I'd say when our lecturer 1st started off, we were told to consider other subjects if we are taking this as an elective since this is one of the toughest subjects and a lot of our seniors didn't made it which really freaked my out at first, but I was thinking, what would be the effing point of going to university if one is not willing to take up the challenge? So I guess I'd be bugging Dr. Chew after every lesson xD I really hope that she wont see me as this pathetic fella who doesn't seemed to understand the topic xD
And so, life went on and I just a fantastic badminton session with Weng Chung and some MBS friends. Really had fun today and I do look forward in having more sessions with you guys and we played for 3 hours today XD haha...I haven't been really exercising for weeks and it's gonna be hell tomorrow with all the sores and aches all around =_=' thankfully my joints are not dislocated hahaha!!!
Assignments are piling up even it's still the first week =( but heck, if they can do it, so do I!
OMG!!! THIS IS FIRST TIME I'M SAYING THIS!!!!! O.o hahaha
Okie dokie...gonna go out for dinner now, see you guys in the next post! Adios!!!

Something of the new, someone of the past
Anyway, my very first lecture had officially started off this morning and I've spent 2 bloody hours just to reach the entrance of Monash =_=' mind you, 2 HOURS!!! Nevertheless, I'm still early =D 20 minutes earlier than the lecture..see that's what we call a punctual student xD hahahaha...
So we had Communication Studies today and I was such a genius that I'd kept on thinking I'll be having Psychology instead, despite the numerous times looking through the timetable =_='
Our lecturer, Mr. Callum Gilmore, an Australian I think appeared to be a nice guy, sorta humorous xD and upon the first sight, we M'sians would say 'selamba' which means he takes matters lightly, well of course not in terms of academically but, in general (that's what I think) but anyhow, he's still a friendly one =D
Mr. Gilmore lectured about the general Key terms that we will be encountering throughout the whole course and we touched on the topic regarding the influence of media towards the shaping of a certain culture and it was indeed funny to watch a clip about the misrepresentation of Arabian culture and people by the silver screen production companies especially by the Hollywood productions. He'd also talked about the 'convergence' of media over the years, and how it actually came about from the very same aspects.
Nothing really interesting happened but our lecturer was surprised that our group actually preferred the newspapers than reading e-news of magazines xD and he said there were only 4 students out of the hundreds who read the newspapers in his previous class..haha...and oh, talking bout communications, Facebook seemed to be the 'in' thing that almost everyone in my class has an account and it's like a 'sin' not to have one..haha..and Twitter is starting to catch up the footsteps of Facebook and Youtube...Mr. Callum made a remark that the 'fella' owning Myspace is really unhappy about it xD cos it's like fashion you know, as what Heidi Klum always says in Project Runway that 'in the fashion industry, one day you're in, the next you'd be out' how true xD
Apart from the lecture, I've actually met a primary 3 classmate after a good 10 years =D Chin San, whom I've lost contact with her for almost a decade finally appeared in front of me after Jamie, my course mate introduced her to us. The instant that her side faced me, I recognised her, as pretty as always, she kinda forgotten who am I, but after some prompt, she did remembered..haha...so indeed, the world is so small and it came as a blessing I guess =D
Alright, that's all for now people, off to more reading and TV =P

A whole new thing to start off
So now that I've unofficially started my uni life, the feeling is rather weird considering the fact that I was supposed to feel excited, nervous and anything at all but feeling numb and neutral...well of course I did feared about the the complexity of people there and at times, I was actually imagining things that I'd be a loner all by myself...now that really started to creep me out. But thankfully, I was able to get to know some of them as I had not really went all out to meet new people when the other friend of mine, Jamie was already talking to random people and started making friends with them. Well, maybe to me, it's not the time yet perhaps and who knows in times to come, I might carry some true Friends with me with the rest of my life?
Anyway, enough of these nonsense. So I met one of my former MBS school mate Marcus and apparently, there's an ex-classmate of mine, Yew Chiang who is also studying in Monash, Business or Finance I think...But the it was really fun meeting Jamie(mind you, it's a she) XD she was from Sunway college, same goes to Marcus. We were allocating our time table yesterday but the system is down, so we ended up planning them online, laughing and cursing through the jam-packed lectures and tutorials haha...if it goes well, I need not attend anything on Tuesdays =D weee!!! good thing is that at the very least we some common classes together, now that we don;t have to be stranded alone xD..not that I mind, but, the closeness between friends will contribute to the effective teamwork of project groups...so I'm gonna start hunting for buddies for assignments xD I'm sounding manipulative...hehe..but of course, not just for the sake of being project partners lar...
So, I guess that would be all for now, will be updating again soon...hasta la vista! adios people!

The best part of the journey, the recent Genting trip!!! A shout out to Brandon, Jia Hui and those who helped made this trip a success though it's just for a night...now that I know my vocab is degenerating after a few games of Taboo and I've learnt some Mahjong skills from Chi Kean =P Can never forget those adrenalin pumping game stunts xD and Chi Kean, when you screamed your lungs out, you really sounded like an ' out-of-tune Mariah Carey'!! hahahaha xD

Guess what were we talking bout? hehe xD
I truly apologize if I have not mentioned any of ur names personally but the rest be sured that I'll remember each and everyone of u guys till...sometime when I cross over to the other world =D
I have nothing much to offer as momentos, but here's a simple poem that marked our friendship. After the official exams, we're on our separate ways and I'll be starting uni tomorrow, stepping into another realm and the next chapter of my life. As Buddhist we say, it is called 'yuan' that we're all able to meet each other in this life and there might not be another time. So, this poem is specially written and dedicated just for you guys. To our friendship, I offer a toast, presenting the 'Finest of Wine'.
(Finest of wine.)
Deep in thoughts,
Bubbly streams of memories
Pours through my soul.
Like an aged wine of the vintage years,
I savored the momentarily yet lasting sweetness.
With a touch of FRIENDSHIP to the brew,
It takes me back to a stationed point
Where you,
Bought me the ticket of remembrance
That continues on ----
The journey of the never ending quest
For a fine wine.
Just
Like
A
Friend---
As fine as you.
