I realised that I have been whining about and messing up on my 'journey' to complete the research. well sorry you've had to read all that. hehe

Truth is thing is a lil bit crucial at the moment.. what scares me off is whether I can complete it within the remaining time? Most people that I met said that normally ppl took 3 semesters minimum to complete the dissertation whereas mine is designed for 2 semesters. But I believe that there must be reasons when the justification of period for each course were made. So I guess it's the mindset.

So I talk to myself a lot lately.. and I am gaining my confidence back. Decided to change on a few approaches and I am truly happy things are getting clearer and a lot better.

I didnt actually try on the real challenging ones, but I tried waking up early. It's actually against my study habit well shall I say since I was 13? but I am really surprised with the outcome,, I regret not knowing that the quiet hours that I can have between 5.30 am to 10.00 am is actually the best time to generate ideas. So that's basically what I am doing now even on weekends (tho 5.30am is a lil tough for now hehe) and I am relieved that many a time I managed to fight that conversation in my head that's constantly urging for another snooze whenever I turn the alarm off.hihi.

I also read a few articles on the productivity and time management, and I re-planned the whole thing again, this time to the bite sized chunks. and true enough, it made me feel like I am accomplishing the little goals and if I work consistently I won't have problem achieving the big ones InsyaAllah.

So those steps have helped me going through the whole research thing phase by phase. and every day I am looking forward to waking up early and having that peaceful hours to brainstorm as many ideas as possible.

I honestly feel that people need to always improvise the way they lead life. My turn is a bit late but I am happy I finally came to that point.

I love reading anything related to this area and it's always the first thing that I try to find in the bookshop. Thought I'd just share some insightful ones with you : 1, 2, 3
Disappointingly, these productivity issues are rarely being discussed and covered in our society.

Oh and tomorrow's a big day for permatang pauh.. I've strangely developed this interest in politics starting with the comic stories that are getting just funnier each day now :D

I am numb, exhausted and paralysed.

Can someone pls recommend good self-boosting article?


thank you (*holding out lollipop token)

All work and no play makes griffin a crazy girl.
sob. sob.

damn.damn.

I did a really dumb thing today.and I just realised that 5mins ago.

Last night I was pissed off with home internet connection.I was beyond devastated such thing happened again when I really wanted to use the net. So I kept a clear head and struggled restarting the router, plugging and unplugging the sockets and all that. I got all fed up with that and really envied the other connections appeared on the wireless network list.damn. I called the TM technical department and despite few attempts to configure the problems were made on the phone, the connection was still off.

Surprisingly the TM technician gave a breakfast ring today. and when things failed to show any good signs, he came over and checked the line and router. he tried connecting my lappie with the router using the network cable and wallaaaah, Google page appeared. I stopped grinning when he told that the wireless part or something of the router must be faulty as only connection using network cable succeeded.

Frustrated over not having the convenience to get connected from room, telly lounge and living room I decided to go to Digital Mall and get the damn router reconfigured or changed as it is still under warranty. Since I had to drive out , I thought I might as well get the car insurance renewal thingy done.

So I drove back to my old office and met the lady who promised to assist me with the payment and the transfer of 10% discount from agent's name to my name,, and I passed all the forms for her magic work. I had to come back and collect it later as she needed to make necessary arrangements and all. So from Dang Wangi I drove to PJ and went straight to All IT Hypermarket. The technical guy checked and called the other personnel who I believed must be his superior or supervisor and he showed me my home network was on the wireless list as he plugged in my router. damn damn. So he told me that there was nothing wrong with the router and that I should bring back the router. I might be a little cruel when I said this, but I hate they way he uttered every word. He had this very conceited tone in every word he said. Such a snob! Duh.When I asked what could probably be the cause when router is proved functioning? he smiled and said 90% could come from the user configuration or setting (ppl just love playing around internet setting?) and only 10% of the possibility could be caused by faulty software.

I realised that I was getting more and more irritated at his answers and comments to my technical questions, so I left. Ok, I know I am not good with this computer thingy but I only asked on the possible causes and status on the router system. I went through A LOT to reach there and didnt want to just head back home clueless. So I was in autopilot mode- drove back to the insurance company, to post office-renewed the road tax, claimed for rebate and just when I was about to renew my driving license, the system was down.damn damn. The license will expire in 2 weeks time and tho I could always come some other time, I just hate it when the initial plan has to be changed,, especially when CONNECTION is the problem.

Sigh. I hate it when I couldnt get everything that I planned done. But at least I managed to get the car insurance and rebate claim done.ok I just got B+ today.

So I went home,, took my bath coz it was effing hot today and plugged in the router and turned on my lappie. I somehow felt like checking the wireless and bluetooth side button.and guess what it was turned OFF and I just turned it back on. urm. then everything else was history.

argh!!!!


So I have (unconsciously, I believe) turned the button off? Or not?
And of course Pingu is my prime suspect. He slept right next to my lappie last night.

I couldn't say a word. I felt stupid. I dont think there's anyone dumbier than me.
I rule the dumb world.

So I scored F- today.

p/s:I still hate that i-know-everything technical guy. tho what he said was oklah true jugak.huh, (damn, i hate to admit this).


Stupid? I know
Hehe.

bday breakfast <3

Last sunday, my family had a lil treat for my bday
I called for birthday breakfast at Chawan
mostly coz I have this endless cravings for its frappe hehe :)
so we had cups of coffees, teas, frappes and some nasi lemak, toasts and ubi rebus
me the birthday girl ordered a beautiful plate of pulut kuning & ayam rendang
and ended up eating only half of it, tersangat kenyang :D nasib baik ade hun habiskan

and we also had some kodak moments :)

10:27

This is what I am having for breakfast now.
The best curry puff in the world by dear mom :)

Started the day a bit late.
Well, I hope I'll manage to strike off a few things on my To-Do List by the end of the day.
There are heaps of papers to read and I really need to review the theories & literature
So I guess my telly slots today are only for Oprah and Desperate Housewives
It's ok so long as I get to do things that I like
and make me happy :)

Have a good day people!!

new me

yeay, i've finally settled on the new template
was a tough choice coz a few others are so cute!
well finally after 3 years
hehe

p/s: this template design is a lot like me actually.
(well actually all the others of the same collection!hehe)

*giggles

:)

happy birthday to me!!

too much to say that i just keep it to myself :D

I left home at 8.10 am sharp this morning. It normally takes
about half an hour or less to reach faculty (UM) so I figured I
should be there about 20mins early for the 9am class.
Thing is I've to start tutoring again, coz I guess they
figured they've messed up the previous allowances, energy,bla bla.
Never mind on that, not really a big deal so far plus I don’t think
people actually understand my position and condition.
Thing is I am super frustrated and mad that some ppl feel like
playing a joke this morning by having countless surprise r***blocks
or just whatever that they call them.

It was not funny at all mind you coz I swear KL-ites were
all late for school or work this morning.and you can see
the madness once we all passed the r***blockS.

So yes, I took 1 hour to reach um, and your maths
is good, I was 10 mins late.
and if you consistently score high for IQ test
you will also realise that i have missed my morning latte.

Ouch!


and it's gonna last till this evening
i am packing my bag now.

koko who?

I have a new addition to my play list
Really proud she's actually a Malaysian


Here peeps, Kokokaina
(even the name's catchy)
hehe

safety zone?

Hey

I dont really believe in horoscope thingy
BUT the one in this month's Astro guide is strikingly interesting
aha

Cancer
Changes will bring success, but you may need
to move out of your safety zone.
Expansion or advancement opportunities
must be snatched up.
Be confident and you will succeed,
hesitate and all may be lost.

Very much telling where I am right now
Duh It's like having someone stalking my life,, and
For the first time ever I think this horoscope prediction is bloody right.
No wonder she is famous.
Mdm Zorra that is.

Hmmmm..

JC

Arrived at Starbucks KLCC 10mins ago
and I'll be here for a couple hours or so
then hun will be joining me after his conference
so we can head back together :D

It's been a while since I blogged
nothing much happened
I am finally fully recovered from the post-engagement stuff and all
*oh need to make a mental note on customizing the Photobook thingy

That aside, today is the 1st day for Semester 1 Year 2008/2009 course registration
which also means that I am now in my 2nd Semester which is supposedly my final semester.
But im planing on applying for 6 month extension for the preparation of viva, submission and all coz when you're working on a research you'll never know what you're gonna face
and in my case, my research analysis is entirely depending on the response and co-operations from office buildings occupants. dealing with humans, well.. very tough one i must say.

I somehow am motivated by what's revolving around me now
and I wanna start fresh today :)

And I also learned yesterday that I need to move on, be realistic and just stay focused
coz I've been taking things for granted

Here's a Java Chips to a new page!




oh and I really my Miss Bubbly
and I found this photo of her mengada-ness fixing stuff with hun
taken on the BBQ party at Knda's place
on my engagement nite :)
