MCI 101 -- 1st Assignment Marks
MCI 101 is one of the most boring subject that a Mass Communication student can ever take in Curtin International College. All the lecturer does is to read from the book that we already have and we were like "WTF are we doing here when we can do this on our own at home?!!!!!". Simple answer: Attendence is worth like 5-10%. And if you're an international student, 80% attendence is crucial.
My first assignment is like on any topic that proves to have a good argument. I chose Abortion. It's a goddamn topic that people have done it for some time. But nontheless, I couldn't be arsed to do anything that someone hasn't done before. I got 72.5% for it. T_T
I wanted a higher mark, but a distinction isn't too bad. Hopefully I can get a distinction in this unit, cause I couldn't get a distinction in any of my subjects last semester. Only 2 credits and a pass. Pathetic right?

Dim Sum with Li Ying aka Food Buddy
Yesterday night when I sent Waleed off at the airport, I received a text message from Li Ying asking me whether I want to go for dim sum. Why not eh? Since I've been craving for it for some time and had no one to go with. Went to the restaurant that Patrick brought me for lunch some months ago. Regal on Road : that's the name of the restaurant. So far, it's the best dim sum place I've been to. Knowing both of us, eating at the same place, we were bound to order ALOT. And Li Ying konon "diet". Fulamak... Reminded me of the time that we went to Miss Maud's. One can feel the weight piling on just thinking about it. Yes. It's shocking how much these two little asian women can consume.
Sniffing away with the flu bug that she's caught. And no. That ain't no halo on my head.
Some of the norms ordered during dim sum time: Braised chicken feet, Char siu Pau and Siu Mai
Egg-tart, Siu Mai and Wu-kok (Fried Yam)
My favourite! Prawn dumplings!
Another favourite: Prawn Cheong-Fun
We decided to try the Duck Cheong-fun
Leng Lui: Li Ying
Yum yum. I Love Egg-Tart!
Me stuffed, but still enjoying my egg-tart.
Oh yeah, for some reason, I bumped into some friendly people today. Strange. This normally does not happen to me. The first person appeared at the ATM machine when I was about to withdraw money. Although I arrived first, I was in another lane and this guy let me use the ATM that was in the other line. The second one was when I was walking to NorthBridge and I sneezed (kinda loudly than my usual sneeze - I've got the flu ok?) and the guy who was a meter away turned around and said "Bless you". Whadda know? There are some nice people in this world.
Waleed's Departure
Gah. I think I've been smitten with the flu bug. Don't know how but probably caught it when I was kinda weak after vomiting so much. Suffering from an occasional cough and heavily blocked sinuses. Hanny was apparently annoyed at me for some reason as to which I have no idea eventhough I spoke to him. And also "apparently" I said some stupid things to Waleed on MSN. When asked, he said that I told him my "darkest, deepest secrets" but when I went on history to read it, it seemed nothing like it, other the fact that I was horny and drunk and confessed that I am lonely - very lonely (companionship wise).
After handing in MCI111's assignment, I watched Taken which starred Liam Neeson. I loved Liam Neeson's acting although the story line and plot was kinda expected. Student Edge made watching movies so much cheaper. Even at a student price of $13.50, when you flash the StudentEdge card, you can get $8 tickets! Shit. That was cheap! But only applicable Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. But still, if you're not desperate to watch it, why not?
Then I caught the bus to the city and decided that I should get myself a ring. The one I lost whilst sandboarding (mostly mum's fault as she asked me to go for a second round in which I really protested as I was already tired. Nontheless, you know what a mother's order is right?) and went hunting for one. Proud Jewellers have really nice ones at a reasonable rate, although it still left me questioning about the quality of the diamond. Yes. DIAMONDS..
This ring that caught my attention was an eternity band, but I really liked the design and it was for $599 - way out of this months budget but since it had to custom made to fit my tiny finger, only 20% of the price was needed to be paid, so the balance could be paid next month. White gold, with a band of diamonds. Takes about 4-6 weeks for it. I can't wait for it.
Lately Waleed and Hanny has been acting strangely (or perphaps) it was just me, as they did their own activities without inviting me. Maybe I really should let them have their own "guy time" but I really can't help but to feel alone when I'm not with them.
Waleed sent me a text message stating that he was leaving tonight. I was like "WTF"? but it was expected as his job has really shitty timing. He was suppose to leave on Sunday. And oh, I realise that I'm starting to fall for Waleed. Why? I've noticed recently that when he hung out with an old female friend of his, I got extremely jealous. This does not occur to Hanny but more with Waleed. He's everything I see that could make me happy. But the thing is that he's not into relationships. That sucks ALOT.

Had a dinner with Bel whilst waiting for the boys to pick us up and went to a Korean place. For lunch I originally had Bibimbap but with the flu, my appetite went down the gutter. However, this Korean restaurant served chicken soup with ginseng. Perfect for someone who has a flu. Costed $19AUD though. But I kept telling myself - there's ginseng, there's ginseng. It's good for you. Bel is very funny and very interesting, although I feel that I'm acting stupid around her cause the things that I say doesn't seem to humour her. Oh well. I tried. And accidently confessed my feelings about Waleed to her. And guess what, she's a psychologist. Damn. She asked me whether I've told him. I said no. Why? she asked. My answer: Fear of rejection. Then she didn't say much. I told her though that I really am jealous of her relationship with Takeshi. They met each other in uni and it has been 6 years and they are now getting married. Seems so nice to have someone to come home to everynight and to be loved for who you are.
