Christmas is round the corner...

Christmas is round the corner again! This year I have yet to do ANY Christmas shopping at all... I have ermm... I think 3 gift exchange presents to get and some other presents that I decide to make...

For some reason, this year's Christmas feels a little different... I don't seem to look forward to it as much as I used to. Is it because I am getting too old for it already? I definitely hope this is not the reason... :P

Books

I passed by Page One the other day and saw that they were having some sale so I popped by and bought 2 books. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows at $9.90 which is really a steal considering it to usually cost $40+. The other book that I bought was Jeffrey Archer's new book A Prisoner of Birth at $18+ before a 20% discount.

The Harry Potter book is more for collection since I have 2 of the books and I have actually finished the ebook version. Maybe one day I will buy the first few books too. :P As for Jeffrey Archer's book? I have been thinking of borrowing it for quite sometime but decided to just buy it since it was on sale. :P I have yet to read it but I will try to start soon. :P

My Appeal is Successful~! :D

After some unpleasant exchange with someone who wasn't even trying to be of any help, more phone calls with another nice and helpful lady to help me with my appeal, I am happy to be able to say that my appeal is finally successful~! :D I am finally accepted for the 2 years programme and so I will be starting school next January. :D

I both look forward and don't look forward to school. It will be the best if I can study full time but I know with my current situation, it is impossible. All in all, I do know that I need to move on. So, time to get back to studying!

Quarantine

I watched Quarantine with my boyfriend and another 2 friends of ours last night. I almost puked while watching this movie, not because of the disgusting scenes but because of the "shakey" camera. It has been quite a long time since I last feel like puking from "motion sickness" lor... It's like another Blair Witch Project kind of movie but as I never really finish watching a Blair Witch Project movie before, so I can't really comment which is more "shakey".

Frankly, unless you are looking for a kick of motion sickness, please don't watch that movie.

Another 3 years of my Life?

I guess it is good to buy "insurance" after all. I got my reply from SIM(RMIT) today. Yes, they accepted me BUT they want me to go for the Level 1 programme which will take me 3 years to complete!

Damn... Why is this happening all over again?! The first time I applied for another course from RMIT, they offered me the 2 years programme when I was hoping to get accepted for the 1.5 years programme. Now, I was hoping that they will accept me for a 2 years programme and yet they want me to take up the 3 years programme. They must have dislike me alot...

I have just sent them an appeal letter. I HOPE this time they will give me good news. I am not very keen on spending another 3 years of my life studying...

Banned!

I went into office this morning to find myself having problem logging into Windows Messenger. It was later in the day when we realised that my company has blocked Windows Messenger or rather all kinds of chats around... Not only that, we now have to input a Username and Password whenever we want to use the internet. -_-'''' Super duper sian lor... Now even if we want to use the internet, it may be monitored by other people... Sian... What to do right?
