A Toad In Cemara Block 3/ 203

-
Today I spent more than 3 hours in INTEC Library from approximately 2.30pm till 6.15pm ( I knew because I looked at my Nokia ). Brrr... I feel like going down with a cold. If I stay inside for the same length of time for three days consecutively , for sure I'll fall sick. This is based on experience, mind you. Even though I'm a native of highland, I'm weak against articial cool temperature including fan and aircond.. But, at the same time, I'm hopeless against hot weather. What a conflicting body! As I'm very sensitive towards weather change, cold to hot and so on.. I proudly call myself a toad..

At first, I planned to read magazines. In fact, I already piled them up on the desk. But, a friend of mine came and asked about the assignment for Classroom Management. So, I abandoned the whole stack ( sorry guys.. later..) and moved to the journals section. And, there, I became so engrossed in piling another stack of thick, hard covered journals, in hope to acquire enough papers for two subjects. Very ambitious of me, tsk tsk... After that, I skimmed and scanned each of them until my neck was stiff enough to cause headache , went to photocophy machine and left the place with another new thick a bunch of papers.

After Maghrib, I went to Rozie's Tailor to send in another two new fabrics and to collect my new 'baju kurung'. Apparently, the 'makcik' is down with flu@cold ( either way) and she was literally lying on the floor when I came in. I hope we are not in the same boat, 'makcik'. I can't afford to fall sick now. It takes ages for me to recover..

When I waited at Che Mat's for my dinner, I feel miserable and uncomfortable.. The occasionally flashes of lightning made me cowered and I chanted prayers non-stop.. I'm very, very afraid of thunder..

Now, at home, I can feel the tension mounting high starting from my neck and running up to my head. . I feel cold inside.. Yet, I'm sweating on the outside..

This toad needs to sleep early today, I guess..

Moving On to Another Phase in Life

-
Nearly a year has passed.  This year, I went at almost everything with jump-in behaviour and head-butt my way just like what my instinct told me to do so. At the end of everything, I achieved my objectives which are to experience as many things as I can and  to uncover the cap of the  people around me. Along the way, the pain inflicted and damage caused are enormous. Up to one point I thought of giving up.  I found friends and I discover foxes in sheep clothing, lurking in the corner waiting to pounce at you at every opening exposed. Life is difficult at some period. It felt like the Dark Age has descended upon me. Seriously, I was at the end of my wits and I had reached the blank point in my life. All the anger, hatred, sadness and negativism clouding my mind.   Alhamdulillah, slowly I crawled my way out of the dark tunnel. I'm very blessed because there are many people who support and encourage me at difficult time.

Holiday is nice. Getting the pay is nicer! * especially with the bonus coming up*

-
I just realized that I actually enjoyed this unwanted, long holiday after I spent two nights staying up late to finish two novels ( ah, 1 am is never too late for me. The night has just started, babe! Urgh, why did I sang this line mentally when I dislike people using 'Babeee'? Now, I feel lousy. But, the line is so catchy and the impression it  has stayed on my subconscious mind... ) There, there. Now I has started this internal rambling again. Lucky it has not become a habit to mumble to myself in public ( soliloquy, said Madam Janet. I first had an encounter with this word in Macbeth's class during our foundation years and I had a love-hate relationship with  it since then. Who wouldn't, especially when one had to endure a 3-hours-class every week just to keep on hearing the same word being repeated again n again and to discuss the text for three months?) I am still amazed at Madam Janet's patience to deal with us especially the shameless me who sat at the front

KUPI OH KUPI

-
My belief  that I can consume almost any food was shattered last Raya just because of an innocent incident. We  ran out of Milo and it is a big no-no to serve Sarsi or Orange cordial  for breakfast. Rummaging through the cupboard, I spotted  a small packet of  'kopi timbang' and I decided to use it. Well, as expected, only the grown-ups drank it except for a few adventurous children. I was tempted to try as I rarely drink 'kopi timbang' and it has been ages since I had coffee. If I was not mistaken, I finished two or three medium sized glasses in one shot. The 'kopi' was okay and I was about to pour another glass when I thought of my sugar intake.Little did I know that my tryout on 'kopi timbang' will turn out to be a nightmare. I had headache, nausea and blurred eyesight. Only after taking a nap, I was back to my old self again. My, my. Kupi oh kupi..
