Helooooooo darlingssss....

I knoe i'e been away for quite a while...its just that i haven't got around to blogging since im back on campus...with the stuff that's been going on...well...it's left me pretty much tired and in a distressed state half the time...

When i reached campus on sunday afternoon...yes, i got there a day earlier...i registered and searched for my new room...fortunately it wasn't on the 5th level but on the 3rd...the downside about it is that i had to heave other people's stuff away from my stuff in the store room...everyone else's things were piled on top of mine and mind you the pile was as high as the door! And i had to move and lift pple's boxes and luggage bags so that i could take my boxes out...by the time i moved them all, i was already tired and then i had to lift them to the 3rd level...bummer!

Once i got my stuff to the room i had to clean the shelves and put everything into place...this meant unpacking and i simply hated doing all that! But by 6pm everything was under control...mind you this was only day one...

Day two meant going for classes and doing manual registration if the need arose...I was trying to schedule another class but to my dismay the lecturer simply refused to let me into her class...reason being: there were too many people in tht class already...i was frustrated and pissed like nobody's biznes...and it was only the ferst day of school! Later on tht day, i went for my 4pm class and i found out tht there were less than 10 pple in the class...less than 10 meant that the class would have to be SHUT DOWN automatically! so i was practically fretting and running around like a headless chicken...-screw this semester man!-...

To make things worse, electricy in my room went down on monday afternn leavg me wif no electricity to iron my clothes! Becos of that i couldnt go to my tues mrng class...crap...the saga continued way after 2pm on tuesday afternn when i tried to iron my clothes at my fren's room...on the way down i slipped and fell on my butt courtesy of the worn out toilet slippers...and now i have a bruising on my butt the size of a saucer in the shape of a crescent and its as purple as the decor in my room...and i can't even sleep on my back...

Anyways...this week im not cmg home cos im gonna be watching Peterpan live at Planet Hollywood! Yeay!!!!! Jgn jeles ahhhhh hehehehe....tooodlessss

My Holiday By Maryam aka Mary/Rya

Ok ok i noe the title is a tad bit childish but isn't that what all teachers ask their students at the end of their vacations? Heheh...well anyways...to sum up my holiday, i would rate it an 8 out of ten!

8 because my bdae fell on the 8th of April and i had a wonderful bdae by the beach...thanks to all the pple responsible towards making my 21st bdae one tht i shall remember for life...My parents of course, Maklong, my grandparents, my family, frens (Shereen, Azimah, Zakiah,Kho, Ais, Zaleha, Najib, Huzei and Su plus many others)

Thanks for all the lovely pressies and the wonderful day tht I enjoyed with you guys...love u byk-byk!

Other than tht, i managed to catch up on some reading...books courtesy of my fren Taufiq (Chua not Batisah okay) and my sister...and i finally managed to re-read The DaVinci Code... and i loved the fact i didnt have to analyse one single bit! I am looking forward to borrowing Sophie Kinsella's Shopaholic series frm Sue!

My holiday failed to get a perfect score reason being:
1)almost all my friends are working
2) shereen sitting for exams
3) and i was ultimately broke
But all's good...

Okaylah pple gue mau tido...i have an extremely long day tomorrow which begins at daybreak...wish me luck for the new semester...i'll miss all of you...friends both Old and New...thanks for being there for me...muackz...

A special shout out to the AISS peeps...oits! ingat 7th may eh! kiter gi bowling! yeay! syg korang semua...kalau bleh dpt hazizul call dier suruh dier turun...he's cmg back frm taiwan on monday tak salah...and chase after the peeps that havent' cfm! All the best shereen for the rest of ur papers!

Maryam syg korang semua...(ter-feeling Dayang lah pulaaaaaak)

On a serious note: Kak D nyer adek Abdullah (affectionately known as Dollah) is in critical condition after a bike accident...pls pray for him.Doakan supaya Allah panjangkan umurnya and if it is his time to go, take him away with little pain...Amin

zak & shahidah


Ooooohhhhh thankies so much darls for making the end of my vacation a bit more bearable...im so glad u guys were game enough to come along and bowl...at least we all know we won't make ourselves look that silly on the 7th of may...it was a gd dry run to the upcoming 7th of may! I. am. so. excited!!!!! -all im hoping for now is for the guys not to back out! (i will personally strangle them if they do!)-

Today on the other hand, i had a much bigger agenda...i went for my first virgin experience at a SPA! wohooooo...courtesy of my aunt in conjunction with my 21st birthday...i heart you maklong! muackz! and i tell you...the facial is not a walk in the park...i was practically wincing (and tearing) in pain!

She prodded and poked my face with some stick for my blackheads and used some sort of needle to get something out of my skin on the nose...sounds like a torture chamber right? okay then i'll just stop here...i dont want to scare pple off...

but overall, the whole experience was very enlightening...i lurve the exclusiveness of it all becos its a women's only access area so i didn't feel so 'segan'...the massage was fab! although my neck is still begging to be kneaded...i even fell asleep during the facial!

i only have this to to sum up my experience : no pain; no gain...that's the price of beauty...take it or leave it...

i have one day left...i hope it brings more excitement and surprise! -lets hope that it isnt a farce-

D was mentioned...it has sunk to tht level...it sucks lemme tell ya...and it is no fun at all...i think i have to stop fretting and agonising over wat is to come...right now...i need space...a lot of breathing space...and i need to find myself again...

i'll make myself scarce again in the near future...dont ask my why...just leave it be...you noe where to find me...

yours truly


...Fading Into Oblivion...

BAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA

I dunno whether i feel stupid or extremely smart...apparently i unsuspectingly made a big boo-boo...hehehhe...Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned u GUNDU!

I don't even noe why im so worked up but it just kills me...not having an ounce of hope is bad enough...

Oh forget it...again...


...Fading Into Oblivion...

Results Schemesults...

Yesterday was D-day...yeah, u got it...wat i anticipated...well yeah i did get wat i anticipated...Like for Shakespeare...tht was the only subject that i've done well throughout the semester...so the deserved A- was not surprising...but Poetry! Sheeshhhhhhh.....all i could muster was a B+...not that i'm not ber-syukur or anything...but I feel like i disappointed Kak Tj...i feel miserable...

Not to mention the fact that i bombed on my IRK subject again...only managing to get a C for Sciences Of Hadith...not surprising there...it was an uphill struggle all the way...im glad i managed a pass...but its not enough! When the hell am i gonna get to the mighty peak...Dean's List...3.5 for my CGPA???? I need this badly...ugh this is gonna drive me nuts...

But there was an upside in the results...I got a B- for my Grammatical Analysis...remember? That was the subject that I failed for mid-sem...i pulled thru! Yippeeeeeeee....thank God there won't be anymore lessons with Dr. Adrian Hare...not that he's a bad lecturer but to see the same lecturer again for the same subject is NOT good at all...i hope that i dun see the day that I repeat a subject...

So again i make this resolution...to study harder!!!! More focus thats wat i need...

And i need my ticket to heaven...where is it anyway!?

Babyville by Jane Green

here's another excerpt for you:


...Mark was termed a nice guy and what can possibly be worse than that? At school he was ther girls' best friend because he was good-looking and therefore good to be seen with, but too nice to want to go out with. So nice he was even considered dull...


Now this really rings alarms in my head...dull? Am i really dull? Apparently my sister and cuzzin think so. I bring in the loser parade...and she thinks everyone associated with me is uncool or unglamorous for the likes of her...No...them...

They do all the fun stuff (and not to mention things tht could get them spanked) and always and i mean ALWAYS leave me out...it sucks...suddenly im an outsider to my own sister and an outcast in my own house...I feel like crap...I cant even sleep cos they seem to be taking over the whole bedroom...making giggling noises and being all secretive...argh...i cant wait to go out tomorrow and forget tonight...

Wats New?

It feels like eons that i've updated this blog of mine...i can practically see the cobwebs forming...i've just been extremely bz and exhausted to even blog...maklumlah, balik singapore ni kita jadi pembantu separuh masa gitu...

So wats shaking? I've been bumming around at home mostly...being cashless doesnt really give u another alternative...other than going out with shereen the other day to feed her craving of sushi i've been pretty much at home...

Me and shereen, we went all the way to chai chee just to get the only halal sushi around singapore and then made our way back to sembawang to meet up wif anna...i felt like a gooseberry...i mean hullo...i was the only one there not studying for an exam...but i still brought work to do...mainly setting tht exam paper for my mom...i thot setting it was just setting the main paper but i had to do the composition section too...bummer...so there i was, wif my big bulky dino age laptop while anna was opposite me, hammering away at her swanky HP laptop tht was a quarter the weight of my lappie...i HAVE to do something about tht...

I visited the website for my uni and 'voila' ... exam results will be out on the 19th!!!! Horror of horrors...

Now im starting to get really worried...i hope i will pull thru...especially sciences of Hadith...

I'm left with just a week of my holiday!!!!!!!!!! Time sure flies when u're having fun! Ugh...just think...no more cycling by ecp with the white puffy clouds that adorn the bright blue sky and the beautiful sunny Singapore sky...and not to mention breathing in less polluted air as compared to KL...really...u can actually smell the difference...

On another note...a voice from my past has come...funny cos we never have spoken like face to face even back in school...he was always teasing and bullying me...and he was my classmate for God's sake...now he sms' me which is pretty unnerving...i have no idea wats going on and i don't really like being in the dark...

And the other party...well...i have no words to describe...he practically tells me to stay away frm him...jealousy? I have no idea...the funny thing is...we haven't even seen each other since i got back...the last time i saw him being almost 2 months ago...kinda missing him...oh forget it....

I'm gonna meet Huda! Yeay...finally after ages...and she's gonna get engaged...geez...everyone's growing up...

Umi is working, Marliana and Azura both got into NTU (I'm so happy for the both of you!), Azimah still trying to get into NTU and NIE candidates Zak and Shahidah are still waiting...Shereen in the meanwhile is trying to cope with exam stress...and me...i'm 21, starting a new semester in less than 2 weeks...and i still feel like my adolescence was robbed from me...wish i could turn back time...

This weekend gonna meet up with alumni members of UIA...this should be an eyeopener...and not to mention i will get to meet up with old faces! Pasir Ris park here i come!

Long time No See

I haven't updated my blog since last week! Geez...its taken quite a while for me to write but yeah..i have been really really bz over the last weekend...

Lets see, there was the dinner sponsored by my sis at Lestari (with the whole family; a rarity these days) and then a day at East Coast Park wit ma UIA mates...thanks so much guys...i totally enjoyed the day...the cake, the cycling, the bowling...the perfect weather...wat else? Of course, the bowling and the 2 guys tht were willing enuf to tolerate 4 giggling girls...thanks especially to Najib and Huzei...tak boleh lupakan these pple esp: Kho, Aisyah Spec and Zaleha. Thanks for planning the day...it was WONDERFUL!

And on Saturday sambung jalan² lagi...Shereen and Azimah made me close my eyes and I had to walk to Far East Plaza ngan my eyes closed all the way frm Tangs...sheesh...im sure i got some pretty strange stares...

They made plans to eat there at a place called Constant Cravings...tapi tutup! Ish...3 times i went there and it was always closed! So fed up!.. -*^&*&^%%^%$^%(&^%_)(_+_)$@@!$#$-...Geram dibuatnyer!

But luckily enuf, they were prepared wif a Plan B...B standing for Breeks! Yeay yeay! Best lah...thrice tht week org blanje makan...die...when i get back to UIA i must go swim like everyday...the food was okaylah...must go back to try the Baked Pasta...

Okay thts besides the point...i got really lovely pressies frm Su (a little bag frm Little MatchGirl) and frm Shereen and Zak and Azimah a bag...geez i think it was that obvious that i havent been buying bags at all... tak sabar nak pakai bag tu kat campus! Eeeeeeeeeeeee why in the world am i thinking abt sch oredi! Sheesh...stop it!

So again, a big thanks to all those who made my bdae this yr a really great one! I was having a bad drought the past few years...but this yr and so on...im coming back wif a BANG!

Can't wait for my spa appmt my aunt and i are gg to on the 22nd! Yahoooo im legal enuf to go for spa treatments!

p/s: pics will be up soon...something is wrong wif fotopages...kinda wacky todae...


...Fading Into Oblivion...

I R soooo exhausted...

When will self-cleaning toilets be realised? It had better be soon because i think i've inhaled so much fumes frm toilet cleaning products...

And honestly, why do my siblings and parents complain when i come back every week? I seem to be the one handling all the chores when i come home...

Lets hope sister dearest gets a high paying job so she can hire two maids...-one to cook and and one to clean up after her-...cos she cant cook for nuts and doesnt know how to go abt cleaning toilets...sheesh...

...Fading Into Oblivion...

Now that i have plenty of time....

Since i haven't been out the whole of this week...i resorted to holing myself up in my room and settle down with a good read...apparently my sister has been raiding some book store at bras basah and she got some pretty good deals...

One of them happen to be Erma Bombeck's The Ties That Bind...And Gag. It's such a good read...hilarious yet witty...and with chapters titled The family that plays together...shouldn't, For better or for worse - but not for Lunch...you just cant stop grinning from ear to ear

Here's an excerpt for you to enjoy:


...And when I pounded on the door and shouted, "What are you doing in there?" the response was always the same. "Nothing."

"Nothing" translates into something quite different for a parent and a child.

"Nothing" to a parent means you are staring into space with your hands in your lap, your eyes glazed, and your breathing shallow.

When a child says "nothing," that is a signal for parents to dial 911. He is usually doing "nothing" behind a closed bathroom door, a dog is barking, water is running under the door, a sibling is begging for mercy, and there is a strange odor of burning fur and the sound of a thousand camels running in place...


Hmmm...now where have we all heard that story before?

I'll leave you all to your own devices now...ciao!
