Funny how I always have the most inspiration to blog once its close to having a test or exam. Point is, a 20% test on New Zealand in the World is tomorrow, and I still haven't covered all the topics on the UN and Commonwealth. Stupid politics. If it wasn't an elective subject, I wouldn't even be bothered about it.

So anyway went to the central library to study for
it, at the 11th floor to be precise. Quite a nice view though, and couldn't resist taking some pics. I could actually see almost the whole of Chch, and one most noticable thing of coz is - the library is probably the tallest building in the whole city. So farnie. Either the Kiwis don't have the technology to build multi-storied buildings or they're really cautious about the possibility of an earthquake happening.

studying, eh

nice view from the top

Ivan's plastic pencil bag, "it's called sustainability..." uh huh.

The topic about going clubbing came up AGAIN. For the past few days I've been thinking of the nicest way possible to tell Liudmila that I'm just not comfortable going clubbing. I'm not going to go on about how Christians (well, most) don't go clubbing, but I needed her to understand that it's my decision and to respect it, also I don't think that people who go clubbing are, well, bad-eggs. So I hope I got that cleared la. Kinda awkward coz Ivan's been asking us out for clubbing at 2 freaking a.m. this weekend! So, yeah, the answer is no but thanks for asking anyway. It seems like people who DON'T go clubbing are the minority here, unlike the scenario back home. So kwai le, me.

But I did agree to go the bbq party tomorrow though. Correction. Liudmila DRAGGED me to the bbq party. I reluctantly said yes after she said, "So you're betraying your best fren, huh." Make me feel bad nia. But what I don't understand is why most June intake students are not going. I just hope the weather's fine, and no strong winds of course.

On a more serious note, I've finally signed up to sponsor a child. And to be honest, it feels great. Plus, it's only 40 dollars a month to sponsor a child living a poverty, and giving him/her (in my case, a 3 year old girl) a brighter future. So, to all those who haven't lent a helping hand in any way at all, WHY NOT?

change of heart

Since a few months ago, I've been thinking of studying at somewhere else other than my current uni, Uni of Canterbury. Well it is a nice place to study but the subjects just don't suit me that well after all. Funny how AFTER you've made an important decision, THEN you've realised that it was a mistake.

So anyway, I was chatting to ah May when I suddenly realised "Heck, why not go to Uni of Otago?!" There are more choices there on the subjects I can choose from, which are probably genetics, biological sciences, or clinical psychology. Also, I'll also meet with some of my old classmates there, and new ones la of course. Old ones namely Kia Miang (maybe), May, Rebec, and "new ones" like Yang (uh huh).

So I've printed out the application forms, filled it out, then ask Maeve about the forecast results or whatever to prove that I'm taking Foundation studies and other stuff.

Though I'm still not 100% sure if I'm going to Dunedin next year, part of me is fairly excited to go study at a new town (though its colder there la, but more snow!), part of me feels sad to leave frens here in uni and Czone. Well, I know its not easy to say goodbye, but its just a chance I have to take, a change I have to make to make the best of my uni life.

1 major problem is of coz accommodation problem lo. Applications for Halls of Residence closed on 1st Oct, but hopefully if I get accepted, they'll arrange something for us (Yang also haven't applied btw). And 1 important thing is that mum had already booked the return ticket back to Christchurch on 17 Feb 06. If wanna change date and location sure costs a lot. sigh. What to do when I'm such an undecided person? Until now I still haven't decide WHAT to study yet. waaaaa......... I hate making decisions.

Lord, please give me wisdom to choose wisely.

The Keys to Your Heart

You are attracted to those who have a split personality - cold as ice on the outside but hot as fire in the heart.

In love, you feel the most alive when your lover is creative and never lets you feel bored.

You'd like to your lover to think you are loyal and faithful... that you'll never change.

You would be forced to break up with someone who was insecure and in constant need of reassurance.

Your ideal relationship is lasting. You want a relationship that looks to the future... one you can grow with.

Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment.

You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred.

In this moment, you think of love as commitment. Love only works when both people are totally devoted.

rollercoaster life

Grrrr. Idiotic Yang has let our group down yet again. I reached the uni in a rush at 2pm, and surprisingly saw Ludmila and her (huh?!) boyfren there waiting for me. No Yang. Apparently, she'd been trying to call me all morning to tell Yang's not feeling well and couldn't make it once again to finish the group report (due to be presented on Tuesday!!!) sigh. 1st he had to move, then buy furniture for his new place, then now "not feeling well?" I'm beginning to wonder if he's lying and just making an excuse to spend quality time wif his new found gf onot. Ludmila and I decided if he's not going to class tomorrow we'll tell Colin about it and make sure he gets a grade he "deserves", that is if our group manage to pass. An I once thought he was a responsible person.

Anyway, Kern asked me to play the piano for him this Sat nite for Czone. Aiks. But what really came as a shock to me was how quick I said "yeah, sure". So this Saturday it is, huh. Finally time when I make my debut as a pianist for youth here. Well, I really hope I still remember all the hard-to-play chords and not freak out at the last minute. hiak hiaks. Kern said "King of Majesty" is gonna be one of the fast songs. haha. Just thinking of the song brings back good ole memories with SFEC youth during Festival of Praise thingy. So yeah, very nice song but really really hard to play oso. All I can do is leave the whole thing to Him and know that it's not people that I'm trying to please, but God alone. Wish me luck anyway. *grins*
