Blogging is just more fun

I don't really have much to say but since I have a group presentation that I'm meant to be doing, I'll blog anyway just to not do the work. Just uploading (badly photoshopped) photos of something I bought for myself (although that might change). I still wonder whether it'd look better in orange...what do you think, black/chocolate?

vs. the black/orange (from Hermes.com)?

I'm just thinking now's the only time I'm young enough for something like orange... but it's just not something that is classic and classics are keepers... Sigh... too late to change now I guess?

Starve your bin!

I've always tried to be more environmentally friendly and do them 'green' things but having watched this UK (government campaign's) ad I just find it so much more difficult to say no to feeding my bin cans and newspaper! Take a look for yourself and you'll see why. This bin's my new 'it' thing. :D

GEE!!

I think my room's turning into that house in the animation movie "Monster House"! Ok, maybe not but it's reacting to my absence. I've been ditching it for four weekends now (and by weekend I mean Wednesday to Monday) and I think it's just throwing a fit about it.

The notice board now has mold growing across it. I thought it was just my ignorance when I saw the first splotch, thinking oh I must have missed it, some funny stain. Then another one appeared and I wasn't sure whether it was mold but I thought I bet it's just me not noticing them there. And after coming back this weekend it spread down the board and this time I'm sure it's growing. You can't tell me the room's damp and that's why it's gone all moldy because I've left my window open enough and the maid comes in and cleans everyday.
I bet it's got something to do with the funny ceiling right above it. It's turning yellow like when there's water coming down from above it; it began peeling too, great.
And just now when I opened the cupboard above the closet the entire door fell off (right on to my big head)...WHAT THE HELL. I've noticed that there're three holes to drill the door on each side but both sides only has one screw holding it in...might explain it. Cheap, thrifty, stingy university accommodation - I should have expected. Now I'm afraid my bookshelves are all gonna suddenly collapse without notice (on to my laptop and printer right underneath it). I put my watch on there too...which if that falls I'll prob faint.
Hopefully now that I'll be here until term ends the room will begin to behave again. We'll have to see. I'll keep you all posted.

I hate the freakin' presentation!

Who likes to make financial projections anyway?! Nevermind that, I love the honey cookies, they're awesome! There're still so many movies I wanna watch:

• The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
• Doubt
• 007 Quantum of Solace
• The Pnk Panther 2

Man I need more time...

A little reason to celebrate

That sense of accomplishment is running through my veins *muahahah* I'm happy. I have a job!!! Who would have thought everything'll fall into place eventually...at least there's something to be happy about, finally. I can honestly say that I'm happy.
I therefore felt justified to indulge myself in (nicely packed) biscuits from Fortnum & Mason...which I'll probbaly regret later but who cares! I bought myself a little gift as well (even before I heard back haha)! I still can't decide whether to exchange it back for a different colour...

Again....

Not that I can justify blogging right now, but I need to. I just need to list out the crap I have to do over the coming weeks so as not to forget anything:

• Interview this Thursday at 9...too early, as always
• Group presentation on March 4, i.e. in two weeks, not enough time...as always
• 1,500-word essay due March 11...ew.
• 750-word reflective piece (ha!) due March (Friday the) 13(th, again!)
• 1,500-word book review due sometime in early May...
• Another potential interview that could pop up anytime now...
• Research on uni applications...hopefully the deadlines haven't all passed! *crap*

O poor me.

Life's little pleasures

Despite the fact that GMAT's fast approaching, I'm glad to be enjoy a little bit of downtime. Stuck on the fourth floor of the library (a place which you'll usually never run into me), the sky started to drop down flakes after flakes of snow, and that was just a nice scene to look out into every time the pages of the GMAT book started looking too unbearable.

I wanted to go play snow-ball but then it was late by the time I got back to my room...but on my way back my friends were playing :D What else was I to do but quickly dump everything on the floor, shove on my gloves and ran out! I got to play and although hit one time too many, still had fun.

On top of that, lucky me have free tickets to go down to (and come up from) London! How? Well, long story short I have a leftover ticket to go down from uni but will be stuck in London without a new ticket. But because last week I bought new tickets to go down to an interview and they were never stamped, I have a leftover ticket to come up from London. Add those two little wonders together and here comes my free(ish) trip! WOOHOO! I'm so happy with them that I made the effort to take a photo and post it haha.
Reality aside, I dreamt that I scored 990 for GMAT. Hmm, ambitious much? It's only out of 800.

W O R K

That's what uni life is all about...right? I'm sick of the amount of work I have, I missed saying "Sigh I'm so bored I have nothing to do." Here's how it's gonna be over the next few weeks:

• Week 6 = GMAT
• Week 7 = Final round interview
• Week 9 = Assessed Presentation
• Week 10 = 2 essays

It's one beautiful life. If only.

Warwick in White 2009!

Not much to say really. Really pleased with passing the interview, need to schedule the final round but still can't decide. There're a Friday 13th slot but I'm a little superstitious, and I think I have the right to be!

Another happy news is I got full marks on my reflective piece, not difficult though - most people managed to...it's all about bullshitting believably. Thank you IB, I owe you yet another one.

On a less lively note, I have GMAT a week today. My, my, please help my all the holy spirits and supernatural beings and powers out there.

All that aside, snow photos!
