Thesised

Hello world,
two days from my due date and my life ended (partially) with submitting two booklets of my life in 2009. In the nick of time, it was handed to the coordinator, Dr. Emily with my colleague/friend, Cheryl - after running pass the library (and getting spotted by Suzzane - kantoi). And so goes our year. Now we leave it up to God whether we score.. but damn, I hope God doesn't doze off on us this time >_< *prays*

It's been awesome, gruesome, lonesome and handsome (me). Right after that, it's been going out, and then to the much-loved highlands bordering Pahang-Perak yet again. Guess where? and where I was hiking? And still, I couldn't get much rest since hiking was the main activity and there was night time noise by the owls and nocturnals. Ah well, some old TV shows (that I don't know nor remember, produced before my birth) were actually quite fun to watch, albeit some ulti-lame fight scenes at times. I'm free now, at least I think so - time to catch up with a lot of things, Honours have ended but really, life is only just beginning. Whew. I'll start updating more, some pictures to come - yes, it's from the highland (note the absence of an 's' to denote plurality) again.

See ya around!

Thesis

When I find myself in times of trouble,
Dr. Cathy e-mails me,
with written words of wisdom,
Get it done.




"Trouble is a Friend"
by Lenka, what a cute video (and song). How aptly it describes things too. lalalala, Thesis.

Presentation-ed

Whee, I have presented my project. Whee. I don't feel the thrill. At least I got some "well done!"s as I was done, despite the dumb computer that caused some problems at the beginning. I was overtime even when I chose to present only selected results. Gosh, if I included everything..... *kapoot*

Some notable moments today... Like as I entered the room I was to present in, the seats which were on the right side were lined with.. ~10 girls. Wow, cheer team! Whee! Until Chris and Tse Yuen came to spoil it all. hahahah, even Dr. Cathy thought they were my cheer team. Yay!


Thesis Time.. abbreviated TT

Presentation

Sunday afternoon as I was getting out of bed....

"Hi Jo Kien, just a reminder that your presentation's tomorrow, can I see the slides before you present?"

Dr. Cathy

O_O

I was barely a quarter done with my Results section that was to be presented. So I worked.. and didn't catch my beauty sleep for another 30 hours -_- and then I realized I never got the actual e-mail that was to inform me of the change, but instead got another confusing e-mail that stated the wrong date.

And then I realized my presentation was at 3 pm and not 10 am.

And then Dr. Cathy had a field trip and I can't reach her.

And then Dr. Emily was too busy to talk to me about rescheduling.

And then I can't reach Dr. Juan whom I was to reschedule with.

And then I napped in the post grad room (haha).

And at long last, when I was almost done with my shitty slides, I got a reply on e-mail saying I can delay till Wednesday morning, whee -_-

And so, here I am, in Gloria Jeans, Sunway Pyramid, solo-ing it out as my three darlings (2 dudes and a chick) watch a movie. I stubbornly refused to join for the movie. haha, time to work... in my new RM49.90 cheap brown but quite handsome shoes (old ones just gave way; left shoe finally went Crocodillian on me). I have so much to talk about, but so little time... Just like my Honours Project and Thesis -_-
