Just wanna wish everyone Merry Christmas!

It's that time of the year where everyone gets sentimental about the year that is almost over. & like everybody else, I too looked back... i started blabbing on a blog, i met my cousin Ian after 20 years, the year i thought i will grad, etc etc... it hasn't been that bad a year i say...but it hasn't been all that kind to me either. Whatever it was...i'm looking forward to 2006. I'm not a new year's resolution person but for the fun of it...

Ashlin's new year's resolutions:

  • don't procrastinate
  • improve handwriting (Brandon, stop laughing!)
  • don't buy stuf i don't need
  • loose weight (HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAH...tough luck)
  • ^stop listing things to do that will not happen!!!!!^

I'll be in Penang next week...& I've made a new list...

Things I wanna eat in Penang :)

Kah Mei, if ur reading this...Happy Birthday in advance!! *hugs*

Konkin' Kong

Yes, i watched King Kong. The ads and trailers were freakin 35 minutes long (dont' say i didn't warn u)...which actually worked out to our advantage cos we were late for our 1115pm movie anyway. The movie itself was 3 hours long of RAAAARRRRRrrrrwwwwwWWWin Kong. By half time, the guys were already startin to "konk"....yawnin and all....way pass their bedtime i guess :p

Overall, it was an entertaining watch (the part where Kong tarik harga & merajuks at Ann & turned his back at her looked like he was positioning himself to fart in her face), touching at times (but not enough to cry...considering u already know what's gonna happen)... but not something i wanna watch in the cinema a second time.

Movies I wanna watch:
  • Chronicles of Narnia
  • Perhaps Love
  • Memoirs of a Geisha

note: this short list excludes the bulk of mushy movies i wanna watch which the guys will never watch in a million years :(

Guys, let's watch a chinese movie next time :)

Puvy, Have fun trainin in Malacca. Will see u when u get back.

Hehe... i'm gonna watch fireworks tonite & listen to some opera... & get paid for it :) YAY!

Old Bones

While most of my fellow ACCA crew are at the moment getting their frequency altered, I sit at home shifting my gaze from one idiot box (TV) to another (my cranky comp).

7 hours ago, hundreds of “sheep” heard these same 2 words…

“Times up!”

As I looked around the hall a few minutes later, these same few hundred sheep were a mangle of mixed emotions. Some sighed, some laughed, some screamed, some even cried. As most people would probably mambo the night away celebrating the last day of exams, I chose to stay at home this time around. Doesn’t sound much like me, huh?

Instead I found it rather therapeutic clearing the mass of books and notes littering my room. & felt half relieved putting them away. Yes, I meant only half. Because in ACCA, it’s not over till it’s OVER. I may just have to dig out those rascals 2 months down the road AGAIN!

In the midst of clearing, I found a very familiar piece of paper tucked in between one of my text books…something which dear Brandon told me will motivate me to study…

THINGS TO DO AFTER EXAMS….after scrutinizing the list, I realized that nearly half the list has been done. Being the procrastinating queen (or unfortunately more appropriately described by Ellen as the studying Procrastinator), I somehow managed to read 2 novels and remember them more precisely than say the context of 5 pages of financial management O_o ….watched a quarter of my dvd list…the list goes on….evil evil Brandon :p

As for the 2 miserable weeks of holidays, I think I will let my mind vegetate. & if you are kind enough, please make sure that I get a bit of sunlight or moonlight.

Happy Holidays ya all! :)
