final semester

Time flies, winter break has ended and the final semester has just started today. Everything seems like just happening yesterday. Well, i have a perfect timetable for this semester, i just have to attend classes for tuesday and wednesday. Pretty good ya? It's like what we normally called as honeymoon period. Hehe. Therefore, i get back my work shift on saturday night. I am still thinking whether to apply for another job since i got so much free time.

I am going to graduate soon. Hope everything is going fine and smoothly. This is definitely another stage of our life to make decision. I am the lucky one indeed as i can still have two options to choose if to study or work. Actually i already have a plan since long ago and i am starting working on it. Anyway, i hope that my plan is going well : )

winter break

Finally, all the assignments and exam are out of my mind now! But, i am worrying about 13 July, the date of release the result. I did not do quite well in my exam indeed so what i have to do now is keep praying hard for a pass for those subjects which are on the edge to the pass grade. Po bi Po bi. Since the day after my last paper, i feel so empty and nothing to do. My passion to games no longer to be determined but it seems like i am getting them back slowly. What to do, holiday what! Besides that, H1N1 is attacking Melbourne badly and it is definitely an annoying issue as i am going to Sydney soon. Hope everything is fine. So how am i going to spend for my holidays? No idea, can't really go anyway at the moment as H1N1 is spreading too strong and fast. Quarantine myself at home for movies and games? This is definitely not a good idea but it seem like nothing else can be done better than this.

Good Luck Alvin ^^,

Wife: "I clean the toilet."
Husband: "How does that help?"
Wife: "I use your toothbrush."

lack of motivation

Why do people only can concentrate on the work in the very last minute? Where is the motivation? Assignments were given out since the first two weeks, and now it's already week 7. I feel like did nothing for the past 49 days, but only a few tutorials. Sometimes, you study for the whole afternoon, it does not mean that the hours you have spent for doing revision are equals with the outcome. For me, the outcome is always can't reach my expectation. I am always progressing very slowly unless it is a very last minute work. People always get excuses like they will get distracted if they are studying at home but how about go to the library? I can only say it could be a little bit better but everything still go slowly. I just can't get fully concentration on my studies but day dreaming instead. What i understand is, if you really concentrate on it, you will pick up easily and install the knowledge into your brain. If you can't focus on it, you will never pick up although you sit in the library for the whole day. Anyway, no more slacking at this moment and i have to complete all those that are supposed to be done immediately. Keep it up! Cheers : )

irish college entrance exam

a capricious autumn

Autumn is the season when the leaves fall from the trees. It supposed to be cooled by the autumn breeze with comfortable weather but the condition in Melbourne is totally upside down. In fact, the leaves still drop from the trees but the temperature is not decreasing. It is getting hotter and hotter. Obviously, you would never predict how the weather could be. It can be a super hot day for today but it might rain tomorrow. The changeable temperature can easily cause a person to fall into sickness, that's why i am still have a bad cough now. 32 Celsius degree is not looking good for an autumn, that is no different with the weather in Malaysia!

shoo shoo virus

I have been being sick for almost a week but it looks like never has the sign of recover. At first, it was only sore throat but i went for horse riding during the freezing and windy weather last Sunday, without any jacket some more. That's why i keep coughing non stop until now. For the past three days, i can't fall asleep because of the non-stop coughing and this made me stay up until 6am in the morning. In fact, i went into my bed at 130am but i got up from the bed at the end.

I always think that after taking a good rest, sleep earlier or drink tons of water will enough for be to get better in the next day but i am totally wrong this time. I have tried honey and salt water but these only got a little effect for my sore throat. At last, i went to pharmacy yesterday and bought a medicine for dry coughs that cost me $18.

One thing that i remain unsure is, I will be not coughing so hardly whenever i am concentrate on playing games or watching movies. No distract at all. Anyway, i have to get well soon. I am sick of coughing 24 hours non-stop and all those chips, tim tam, juices are stand by-ing there for quite a long time.

lovely weekend

I love weekend so much now because i don't need to work. But, anyway i think i am going to work next week. Week 3 is gone and another new week is approaching. Don't know why i just feel like to stay at home and not going anyway today. I just want to enjoy my weekend. Generally, i am full of laziness especially in weekend. I just want to play, relax and enjoy since we study in weekdays! But, we all know what this is an excuse.

get ready for the start

I am currently in the second week of my university life but i haven't really up for my studies yet as I am still in holiday mood. No way! There is lots of assignments to deal with, especially the property development is killing me. You can't stop to do reading once you step in the course of property development. I hate to do reading as it takes time for me to find out the meaning of the words. What to do? No choice. Well, i have forced myself to spend at least 30 min per day to do reading on PD.

Yesterday, I spoke with the members of BQSM who came all the way from Malaysia. They were here to understand our syllabus and the subjects that we have done and on going ones. Anyway, I am glad that i got the chance to speak with them and i think it benefits a lots to me after the talk. It made me got more confident with the course that i am doing right now.

Imagine that we got only roughly 13 weeks for one semester and the 3rd week is coming next so that i have to get ready and start doing my works. Cut down the time for gaming immediately! Seriously, i gonna be well prepared for this semester.

my new samsung lcd

Few years ago, i bought a 17' LCD monitor and it cost me around RM950. But, now i got this 22' LCD monitor only for $275. Well, can I get a 32' LCD only for $275 after a few years? hehe. I love my new LCD especially with the logo of the Manchester United, it looks awesome! I was walking around 40 min in the city to find the computer store as someone gave me the wrong direction. Although my table looks a bit messy but i don't care. : )
