Yawn. It's 1130 at night, I've been to only one lecture this week.. and that was about a 'taste' of one of the third year modules, and tomorrow morning at 9am will be a continuation of it. I've written out most of my Christmas cards and I can't wait for the holidays to start so I can catch up on some sleep, regain my energy and actually try to make sense of all the things I've learnt from my modules during the 11-week duration that university life had taken over. I've been too busy to e-mail/IM/call any of my best friends, who at one point will eventually drop ME an e-mail to remind me that they are STILL my best friends, no matter what. I feel really really guilty about it, but not guilty enough to find time to sit down and write. They know by now that I won't be coming back for the December holidays and spend their summer holidays with them.. but the only worst thing I can think of is the idea of missing out on the things they're doing there, while I'm here. Boo.

Yas, Yus, Syer and Sek Hao on my lap. lol

Over the weekend, a group of friends and I (a group of 40+ is more like it) went to Cadbury world in Birmingham. On the same day, I managed to get my chocolate fix to last me the rest of the year and a couple of months after. It was a great day: we were given free chocolates, took funny photos and basically had a blast with one another. It had been eonks since Souri and I last went out together, and she was good fun. The boys and I went to SportsWorld and bought their 'jerseys' for this Saturday's BSU Winter Games in London. We didn't do much in Birmingham because there just wasn't enough time, but I did get to take some silly shots like jumping in the middle of band who were performing on the side walk, looking up the skirt of a statue. I'll post photos of those up on my flickr once Mustanir sends them to me.

With one of the Cadbury things :-P

Fol made a traditional 'Malay' lunch on Sunday, which was nice of him because I've been craving for something like chicken kurma or curry of some sort. He ended up making curry chicken that wasn't too spicey for me. But seriously, winter is starting to take its toll. I swear to god I eat like a mad woman these days, I just cannot stop eating. I'm always craving for something to eat, be it chicken soup, beef rendang or indomee. I just need to eat. People say its because it's getting colder and our body 'thinks' it needs food to keep warm, it probably does.. except I'm not doing anything to work off the excess calories I've been consuming.

I had a poster presentation on Wednesday with a group of friends for Management Accounting. I've never done a presentation before and everyone in the group insisted we wear something smart, business-like. SO, I ended up going to tesco with Yusri and buying a nice top there. That's just one more to add to my mass collection of tops. lol. The presentation went alright, we managed to answer questions thrown at us, and we were given positive feedback. Up to Week 4 of Semester 2, my group still has to meet up so we can type up our written report to send in to our lecturer as part of our final grade. Double modules are such a bitch. It gives you a longer time to study but it also gives you the same amount of time to mess up.

I'm running low on indomee and my ayam masak lemak packets :-(
love,
yasmin.
