booked!!

Yeay, I have settled all the bookings for my UK trip. *lompat lompat*.

dah book flight, train tix, tix to london, accomodation. yeay!! so far, everything is within my budget. the most expensive, is of course accomodation in london, tapi lantaklah labu. tu pon dah ok dah sbenarnye. (ucapan terima kasih buat dzul sbb tolong bookkan accom for me in London and ayang kerana sudi bagi mak ''balik kampung' ke rumah uols!)

Anyway uols, this wiill actually be my first time jadi tourist sensorang nanti di kota london tu!! hmm....i hope the transportation services are as efficient as the ones in wien. i am not that worried because everybody speaks english, so that would not be too hard. cuma nanti nak cari2 tempat makan dan etc. bestnya!! hmm..where can i get free maps??

first day sampai, plannye nak ronda2 sambil mencari tempat tido mak ittew. hari kedua, nak usha tempat2 utk diterjah pada boxing day. boxing day of course will see me boxing the day away. and probably even the next day? i dont know. and then nak fenfeeling tourist juger. tengoklah cemana.

i hope everything would be smooth sailing.

p/s: sesapa yg duduk di london or penah jenjalan ke sana, bagila ai tips places to go, see, eat!!! thanks!!
p.ps: public transportation jalan tak on xmas day??

membuat presentation

haih, sekarang sedang bertungkus lumus membaca untuk bersedia bagi presentation selasa ni. banyak benda nak kena baca.

but you know what? i have decided to work smart. since my presentation would only be for 30 minutes, i obviously cannot masukkan every thing that i read, right? so, i decided not to read everything, and just buat my powerpoints based on 3 articles. aci tak??

*update*
finished preparing the ppt slides for my presentation and also my zussamendfassend for this wednesday's class. so can concentrate on writing my answers for take home test mulai pagi ini! *yeay*

p/s: despite the fact that i would still have to do some work on my xmas break, i cannot wait for it! wohoooo...

yakin boleh

masa-masa gentar mengejar deadline (yes..its tarikh ajal, hence the word deadline...dateline refers to the date kat papers tuh), teringat plak masa keje kat soratkhabar.

you know, i sometime have to churn as much as 15 (sometimes more) stories per week and our deadline was ussually on wednesday/thursday. Selagi belom saat-saat akhir, selagi tu laaa sempat nak pergi long lunches, manicure, basuh rambut, shopping dan buat perkara-perkara yang tiada langsung kaitan dgn sotry tu. and then, hari rabu tu, tiba2 idea dtg mencurah-curah gittew!!!

i tell you, procastinating is EVIL. tapi i keep on doing that. for instance, i just printed out some articles that i must read in order to prepare for my presentation, tapi, lepas dah print tu, surf internet la, apa la.. haih.

but maybe, just maybe, i work better under pressure?? *matila nak justify*

progress

ok. i am done with question no 2 of my take home test. i was trying to tackle question no 1 tapi suddenly realized that i have a presentation due on Nov 2nd and so, will work on that first. i am giving myself 3 days to prepare for the presentation. Kalau boleh, nak habiskan before Saturday. Kalau siap before Saturday, I will reward myself with a trip to the outlet!! heh heh. *matila alasan!

lepas siap presentation, nak siapkan my weekly summary thingy. and then, work on my exam again!

i hope i can do it, insyaAllah.

ketagih

i heart derek morgan criminal minds.

yes, keje menimbun, tapi saya masih tak sedar diri and keep on watching CM.

Sila timbul kesedaran sikit wahai diri sendiri!

tsk.

bila nak mai?

mood untuk membuat kerja masih ala ala non existant walaupun deadline utk banyak benda semakin hampir. ish....i tell you, nak work on my take home exam tu pon, punyelah procastinate. in fact, sampai sekarang, jangankan satu soalan, introduction to jawapan pon NON ADO!! *matila!!*

anyway, i am here to write on my latest purchase which i think is a tad expensive (for me la becos i am very cheap like that). I have been wanting it since i was in the hospital sebab sedap gila bau bila rumet kat spital tu pakai. so sejak itu, asyik usha je kat kedai but was a bit put off sebab harganya. anyway, since my current one dah nak habis, ai decided that its about time i indulge myself and get something i really want! so, dengan tanpa rasa bersalah, i pon belilah lotion idaman kalbu, yang amat sedap baunya dan dikatakan sesuai untuk kulit yg amat kering.

selamat datang ke keluarga skincare chesabb, wahai biotherm baume corps oil therapy. i think my purchase berbaloi cos it should be able to last me for a few months. *matila nak jugak justify*

next, bila krim muka dah habis, ai berangan nak beli krim idaman kalbu jugak. sebab, i think, its about time i take good care of my face, no? usia pon bukan makin muda uols. jadi ai kena la berusaha menjaga kejelitaan, kan?

by the way, i found the best product for my dry feet! its an enriched butter thingy yg wangi giller and tak langsung bau like all those crack heel cream yg i penah try masa kay keyell. i LOVE it!!

ok, sekian.

bergelumang

saya berlari mengejar deadline.

EVERY FREAKING tuesday: Summary of articles to be discussed the next day (which explains why i have been reading a lot of adorno. ai akan mengapplykan teknik ni masa i mengajar nanti. siap budak2 tak baca artikel dan tak buat summary. its part of the evaluation!)

Nov 2: presentation of dual systems theory (which i have no freaking idea sebab rasa mcm tak penah belajar je. or maybe i didnt concentrate in uni dolu2?)

October 23 - Nov 8: Take home test - culture and aesthetics. (whatdehell is take home test? kenapa lecturer ai tak pernah bagi dulu2? apa yang dia expect ni? *panik*)

Nov 10: Outline of experiment for Forschungspraktikum (have to look for war film clips...help!)

Nov 15: Deadline for abstract untuk paper Visual Culture

Nov 16: Presentation of initial ideas for Visual Culture punye paper

Nov 25: Presentation for Qualitative Kommunikationmethode

Jan 17: Deadline for paper on Visual Culture

Jan 20: 1/2 hour presentation for Visual Culture

Feb 1: Deadline for Forschungspraktikum paper

honestly, i feel so tired everytime i come back, and not, its not only because i have to climb 4 flights of stairs every time. minda macam penat *chewah*.

i feel that time is not enough!! I promised myself to finish chapter 1 of my thesis by the end of the month, and although its almost there, masih lagi tak complete kan!! lari deadline mak!! and kengkonon chapter two should be done in november, tapi tengok je la deadline2 yang ada bulan november ni uols!!!!!! *pengsan*

on top of that, i spend time looking for english translations of articles in my reading list. if tak jumpa, terpaksa guna google translate.

oklah. nak tidur. esok nak kena bangun pagi, baca article yg patut dibaca sebelom kelas, and hopefully finish my summary for this coming tuesday so that i can concentrate on my take home test.

aufwiedersehen.
