Flowers
Was feeling kinda one-with-nature the other day. So i grabbed sis's camera, went to the garden and started randomly snapped pictures of flowers and plants.
It's amazing that i do not know most of their names. Hmm.
This is an anthurium. I spent goddamn long googling for the name of this flower. -_-"
The most common: bougainvillea.
Ok this. I dunno what it is.. Said to bring prosperity, you know.
Some freaky fern..
No idea what flower this is. Starry shaped.. *Edit: Wingie-Wing-Wing (ringa-ding-ding) says these are jasmines! X0 So ok. I am an ignoramus.
Sis's fishies.
Basil. Looks as if i have an entire field of them huh.
Yet another strange flower. Looks somewhat delicious! =) Pardon the hideous cement gray background which is most unnatural. Sighs. Neighbour recently erected a hideous new wall to hide their hideous overgrown botanical garden..
This horned leaf reminds me of something from Disney's Alice in Wonderland.
So. Pics of plants from my garden. V. bad photography skills of mine. Hehe.

Another pic from El Cerdo.
Werner's Special. The owner is called Werner apparently. So, his special! Very delicious. A poor waitress up-ended an entire tray of these on the floor though. Was like some bomb chain reaction.

Exams!
Phew. That's one down.
Econs turned out easier than what i expected. I had a vague understanding of all the topics asked (except the concave to the origin thing.. mind boggling), all the graphs readily in my mind. Just that i don't think i've done enough analysis for the graphs drawn. For a moment i forgot how a monopoly determines its price. X( Fortunately i recalled it eventually. Thank god.
I think i haven't been writing so much since my SPM days. My hands kinda cramped up halfway through question 5. Argh.
Now it's time to cram as many management theories into my head before Tuesday's Management paper. Horrors!
***
Stupid thing happened before the econs paper.
I left my wallet, including my student card, my cash and my identity card at home. I was striding around thinking i had it inside my right back pocket but it wasn't. It was lying between the pages of my novel on my bed at home. Such a blur sotong i am. On the day of my exam somemore.

Thank god and all his seraphims i saw Ming New's student card, checked my pocket and discovered that my wallet wasn't there! 0.0!
I flew down to the student admin and asked the lady.
Me: Hi. Question. What if there is an exam and i forgot my student card?
Lady: Oh. You can use your IC.
Me: [temporarily relieved at such a brilliant solution to my problem] Oh thank god.
Me: Eh.. Wait! I didn't bring my IC also!
Lady: [incredulous] U didn't bring ur IC?? Then how u got here today?
Me: Yea someone fetched me...
Lady: Well i guess the invigilators will have to verify you in some other way..
Argh. I spam called mum to bring it for me but she didn't bring her handphone. So In the end i took a cab home to retrieve my wallet, wasting around fourteen bucks. Sighs.

Here it goes again...
i feel shitty. i hate to feel like tis. my working life sucks i tell you... so much that i dread to go to work every morning. well, not so much on the job but more on the environment and the people im working with. they are so different from me. totally outta my league.
i feel suffocated at work. at my desk. my mentor, let's just call her A in here. im here at tis place to replace her who is going on maternity leave next week. so practically i gotta learn up her stuff in 3 weeks time whatever she learnt for the past one year. pregnant women tend to be more grumpy and short tempered... can you imagine my learning experience?
what makes my life even more sucky apart from being on a contractual basis job is that the department im working in will be relocating to Bukit Tengah in a months' time. i think the manager is not being ethical by NOT informing me about this relocation thingy during the interview. why the hell do i wanna work in the mainland instead of the island? why do i need to bear the additional cost?
and there is no parking lots for me over here. i gotta park my already-scarred baby kelisa in any space available. got 2 saman for the week already. gone is my RM100. what the fuck right? how bad can one's life be?
i wanna leave and get myself another job. a normal job. a job that pays my bills. not working to pay the saman bills. puki. im so fucking stressed if you wanna know... my future employers cant even get to me now as im working in a fucking basement of a fucking warehouse. there's no network connection down there. i cant receive even a fucking call at all. can you fucking believe my luck?
and my colleagues... they are the strangest people i've ever met in my life. they dont eat lunch. even if they do, it'll be cookies or some kuih throughout the whole day. their eyes never left their pc. they dont go out for lunch due to the lack of parking. and when they do go out... they go out to pack their food back to the office instead of enjoying their lunch outside. and we are not allowed to bring food into our office... so basically they are eating in fear everyday. what's the fucking point? i mean... you are already out... why the fuck do you pack it back to eat at the stupid office? in front of your work station? fuck them really... oh btw, i had lunch in my car yesterday. alone.
i so wanna leave tis trashy place. god, i'll do anything to get outta here. i cant fucking breathe in here ok. i've got a few options available but i cant really decide. i hate new environments. i hate re-adjusting myself again. but tis place is a god forsaken place. i lose more than i gain. in monetary and non monetary terms.
god help me... im so lost =(

Suay
I found a ridiculous but hilarious Singlish dictionary website. Check this out.
SI BEH
(see bay)
Hokkien term meaning "very" or "extremely".
and...
SUAY
(sway)
Hokkien adjective meaning "calamity" or "catastrophe".
So combining SI BEH and SUAY = SI BEH SUAY, and that's probably what am feeling now.
Unlucky unlucky unlucky. Went for Dominos take out two days ago. And i didn't notice a small patch of water beside their leaking Coke cooler. And so... I slipped. Whooosh!
Newton's Second Law states that f=ma (force = mass * acceleration). Due to my tremendous mass, the force of my knee onto the floor when i sprawled over is SI BEH power.
Then of course, Newton's Third Law says that all forces occur in pairs, equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. So the floor exerts the same force onto my knee... And that is why.. I have a swollen bruise on my knee now. Sighs.
Worst thing is that the floor doesn't feel the pain. Dammit. It should've at least cracked or something, y'know, to make me feel better. Like "i knee the floor and the tile crack man. SI BEH pro".
But it didn't. Sighs. So i am now left with a throbbing knee.
And of course the SUAY-ness didn't end just there.
Went playing basketball earlier today. And i was bending down to take a futile swipe at Teckies' ball when we collided into each other. Head-to-head collision. Bang! Was kinda scared that his head might split open like a watermelon, him being all thin and skinny. I suppose i did more damage to him than he me. Anyway, i have yet another swell at the centre of my forehead. LoL.
Potential Newton's Laws analysis here but fuck it. Am a business student. Have forsaken physics.
On a whole a different note, i am thrilled to find this definition:
SOTONG
Malay for “squid”. Used to describe someone as rather inept or in a world of his own. Presumably, it comes from the squid’s emission of a cloud of ink, hence the popular phrase, “blur like sotong (!).” May be used as both noun and adjective.
Whee! That's me. In a world of my own. In a sotong blog of my own. =)
