Done Lecture 4, Break, Lecture 5 coming up

*sigh* 'procrastination' is the word for not just today but everyday ^^ Oh well~ Just saw Lady Gaga's new MV - Judas.



Despite all the religious outrage in the news and everything, I quite like the song and it's actually quite catchy . . but I'm not sure if it's alright for me to sing along with it :s But the actual meaning of the song isn't about anything religious at all . . maybe a lil' bit but the main story is about loving the wrong person over and over again, or should I say the SAME wrong person over and over again. The person who had betrayed her yet she still clings to him. So it should be alright...?

And there's this cover by one of my fave youtube artist:


Love the instrumental cover! ^^

Just voicing out my opinion before having another go at revision. Time to get back to it! Till next time~

Great Great Holiday, Time to Face the Real World Again

Have been to lots of places this Easter break. Did a lot of new stuff as well but haven't got the time to actually update here. I'll do that when I get the chance and time to later on. I'm currently in the process of updating my Field Diary for BIO1407 which is up for inspection tomorrow, along with the Collection. Yep that's right, it's all done and over with! Well not quite . . but it will be by tomorrow ^^ Right I'm still on Trip 7 in my Diary, 3 more trips to go .. I can do this! *being positive makes you healthy ;)*

So yeah will continue doing work for now. Might update just before exams start which is on the 18th of May, which would mean that I'd be procrastinating lol but hey we need to be happy to do good right? ^^ Alrighty adios for now. *wave2*

Day Out at the City with Kaka Amal

Bought new shoes for 'Salam Brunei' and a pair of sneaker-flats for the coming summer. Gosh spent quite some money today but it was worth it :) Wasn't actually in the mood to go anywhere today, too lazy to move my butt from bed lol. But then Sarah reminded me that I haven't got any shoes to go with my baju kurung yet. So Ka Mal and me went out in the end ^^ Too many temptations out there really. Want this, want that *sigh*

Just outside Selfridges
Taken by Ka Mal ;p
The crossroads of my life~ lol

The picture of the woman in bikini seemed a bit too focused in the one I uploaded on facebook but yeah it was supposed to focus on the whole background of the area :) We went to Subway afterwards. Got ourselves Italian B.M.T, YUMMY~

It's Ka Amal's Birthday today, HAPPY BIRTHDAY KA AMAL!! May Allah bless you. Hope you're successful in everything that you do, always prosperous and healthy on the inside and outside and always be cheerful in life, amin~ ♥ you Ka Mal! :D


Signing out, adios~

Soto Day + Teh Tarik - Asian Night!

Haha finally got the chance to actually learn cooking :D Thanks to the recipe from the internet and Ka Jilah's 'suggestion' for me to cook soto for yesterday ^^. So with Ka Mal's and Nabillah's help it turned out to be successful, yay!

Cute Easter Chocolates ^^
Holding a 'HUNNY' pot :D
Cooking in process
Nasi Impit
Sup Soto Daging
Ka Mal made Lada Rindu and we all made Kicap Special, no pictures of them though. They were the HOTTEST things I've ever tasted since like ages! Too much Lada Padi. But it was yummy nonetheless but miss mum's soto now :s and Sarah made dessert - chocolate-coated strawberries, umm umm~ and Nabillah made Teh Tarik ala-ala Taiwan. The perfect Asian dinner combo. 10 out of 10!

After all that eating we karaoke-d  till like 12am. Too bad I didn't know most of the songs. Not good for the voice (as in our voice may not come out the next day) but a good tension-remover - recommended to all ;) Gonna hit the hay - till next time~

The Start of Easter Break!

Yay! I'm here in Birm already after quite a hectic day yesterday. I missed my first train form Falmouth Town to Truro Rail Station by a few minutes. I guess living so close to a rail station has its downsides - taking things for granted thinking I can take my time . . . Guess what happened, got too carried away then realized it's nearly time to depart. I basically rushed there but too bad I missed it. In the end I called the cab to get to Truro to catch my next train for Birmingham. It costed me £25 but yeah there's nothing much I can do. Don't wanna miss the whole train in the end so . . My taxi driver was a friendly sport which made me feel better a bit so I didn't think much about the whole missing-the-train bit. He was a bit amazed that I'm still smiling though lol. Things happen for a reason they say.


I think that reserving a seat is a smart thing to do as you don't have to find a seat somewhere else. It took me about 6 hours to get to Birmingham. Snapped a few pictures in the train.



Got to Birm at about 3.55pm. Kaka Amal came and picked me up. I was too hungry cause I didn't get the chance to grab anything to eat for the train ride so we stopped by at this new chinese restaurant callled 'Chopsticks'. It's halal, they've got a buffet menu and it's just about £5 for the buffet! That was really a treat :D Too bad my tummy can't fill everything in so I stopped after the second round.

Today Ka Mal took me to the city with Nabillah - just met her yesterday and we both slept on Ka Mal's floor lol. I spent a lot today shopping for clothes at Primark - phew~ I'm happy with them though :D Then we stopped by at China Town and drank Bubble Teas at Caffe Chino. Got myself a Pandan Cake as well yum~

China Town in Birm
Where we get our Bubble Teas

The photos aren't really in the right order, we went shopping first then Bubble Teas, sorry for that. Alrighty then will update again soon, sayonara for now ^^

A pretty UNFORTUNATE day *sigh*

'Unfortunate' is a mild word actually. 'Damned' is more like it. *sigh* I have a practical sesh this morning at 7am in the morning. It is one that I was looking forward to too. Guess what happened . . I totally missed it!! I had set the alarm at 5 something and 6am. I literally woke up and turn the bloody alarm off and go back to sleep again! The next thing I knew, the brightness of the room woke me up at it was 7.30am! I panicked and swore all sorts of words I don't really wanna mention. I even woke Santi up with all my swearing. She got all surprised thinking something major was happening. Sorry for that. I don't even bother to do anything else, get dressed and Santi called the cab for me and I zoomed off to campus. Got there at about 7.50am and ran all the way to the Walled Garden to find that the door was locked. Then it hit me, the reality of missing the practical, BAM! another round of swearing and I just bugger off to the library. On my way, I found a dead jay (a bird) near the pond area. Don't really know what to do with it, it was lying on the rocky floor so I just transferred it to a grassy one. Then got to the library, still pissed off! at myself of course to find out that the internet was down! And my next lecture won't be on till 2pm! Only Allah know how I felt that time. And I spent £11 for the cab and for what?? Nothing!! Man, I feel like kicking myself! but I got over it now . . . -ish at least. Nothing can be done anyways.

Ok that's the worst of it, now for the good bit. Sorry got a lil' bit carried away there. So we had a bee hive demo at about 3pm today. It was really good. And good news is no one got stung lol. And we were told about the field trips next year afterwards. I didn't know that we have to decide now basically, when all the tests and works are all clustered together boohoo.. I need to meet up with my tutor and discuss about it. I should e-mail him soon.

Ok updates of what I have been doing for the past few days. I have posted up pictures on facebook so everyone I know Knows what I have been up to. But for the sake of updating I'll just comment on some pictures here :D

Gilly beach - all sunny :D
Found this place when we walked around Swanpool Lagoon
Swanpool Beach
Went to look for farms and here we are!
The view of Swanpool Beach and Lagoon from the public path we found towards farms
Found a field, got sidetracked from the path, turns out it was a golf field area -.-' 
Found an earhworm! lol being disgusting aren't I :p
After walking for who knows how long we found ourselves at Maenporth Beach!
The best of the 3 they say :D at least for playing cause it's really shallow.

We accomplished something that Sunday. We didn't plan to actually go to Maenporth as it looks really far from the map. We just followed the path and enjoyed the view, which was AWESOME. And there we are lol. Got super duper tired though. Especially our feet were in pain.

Mm what else, I went to Tehidy yesterday for my field trip. Won't say that it was a hell lot of fun cause it wasn't really, but the view was amazing. Maybe I'm getting used to all these nature stuff. Not that I've seen everything all there is to see. But it was our last field trip out so just enjoy it while it lasted lol.. time for some collection and real work.


View from the cliffs
Spot the spider? Mustered up the courage to put my hand that near to a spider haha
The beach! The water looks so blue!
Tehidy Country Park


Oh yeah I forgot, I did the test on Tuesday and got 78% yay! lol it wasn't that great to celebrate but good enough to get a solid First :D I think I haven't mentioned about my poster score from last time, I got 69%, bummer! Just One more would earn me my First class *sigh* I hope the total in the end would earn me a First for BIO1410 from last term.

Got a test tomorrow on IDs and bird songs, I'll listen to them all night and hopefully they'll stick in my head for at least a day lol. Till next time!
