You'd think that by now, I'd be all too familiar with the saying: "You never know what you've got till it's gone".

I hurt too.

A drunk Australian once asked me, "What is your goal in life?" and I told him, "To be happy; to live,". Then he said "Mine too. That's a good goal. Are you happy yet?". I pondered over this for a while and finally I told him "Well I'm not sure but I think I'm getting there,". He gave me a little smile and said: "Don't worry, I'm 27 and I'm still getting there. You're probably only 18 or something. People don't get happy at 18. If they say they are, they're lying to you, lying to themselves," .

Thank you, random stranger. You may not be entirely right but I'm going to agree with you anyway.

I finally got myself a permanent number (and a new phone yay!). 93899439. I promise this will be the final one. Thanks, friends.

Yesterday I was walking from Hall 4 to 14, along the road from Can A to NIE, when these two dudes in tribal costumes -complete with face paint and spears- appeared from the bushes nearby and walked past me with a "What up, Eminem (it was raining and I was wearing Suf's too-big sweater with the hood up)". It was 1245 at night. I am till confused. MLIA

This week has got to be the most emotional week ever. I have never been so much of a wreck than I was this past week. I cannot wait for the holidays.

Current Mood: sleepy

5th floor at Hall 4 is seriously no joke. I swear I'm going to lose weight and gain back toned dancer-legs in a month. Heck, 2 weeks if I leave the room often enough. Thank god for an awesome roomie. I might just join cheerleading this year and this time, I'll stick with it till the end. It's time I did something I actually want to do and can be proud of. Stupid codes for the toilets; what if I badly need to pee and accidentally press the wrong buttons? Bodoh. I'm just bitter because I spent five minutes trying to open the door this morning. Turns out I didn't press the buttons hard enough. Hal, faster move in already!  

I am 200 words away from victory against Nala's assignment. Inspiration, you are a bitch to work with(out).

Current Mood: ditzy

I'm actually having a crisis deciding which shoes to bring to hall. And I just got a pair of cheap, high-cut gladiator wedges the other day. Oh, confusion! I'm almost done with Nala's assignment (sorry I'm taking so long, 'Alia!), need to move on with Alec's soon. So far so good, at least I've got a sturdy analysis to build my answers on. Deadlines are looming!

Hang in there, friends! Less than a month more!

Dear Faridah Harith, below are your PSYCHOLOGY PERSONALITY test results:

You love the crowd... a party animal! Too many “friends”, you can’t easily tell which among them is real and not...
Not really. I'd pick a quiet, cozy house-party over a club anytime.

You hide your emotions... Sometimes pretending to be always happy. Sometimes, not giving even a hint of what you really feel.
Spot-on.

You search for love... you’re a hopeless romantic and every time you enter a relationship, you give your all and believe “this is the One.”
Not all the time. Eventually, maybe. But I do give my all.

You appreciate simple things in life... You hate complicating things that’s why you’re typically up-front in any aspect.
Strike #2.

You’re an ideal boyfriend/girlfriend... You don’t care if your partner doesn’t really love you as long as you love him/her. You give your all...
I do care, actually.

You’re intimidating! People have an impression that you’re elite—or if not, you simply look sophisticated. You gain praises but not companions.
Woops. I get this a lot. I really can't help it.

You love actions... with the hero-like taste! You focus on your strengths and use them to protect the people you love.
I'm not really sure that I understand what this means.

Time to go back to assignments!

I think Giovanna Antonelli is so damn gorgeous. Especially when she starts bellydancing. *faints.

Today, I pondered the significance of my existence in school after failing my first assignment for Morphology and Syntax. I'm still pretty much bummed and very close to packing up and leaving this place (FOREVAHHH) but here I am sitting in a corner -literally- in school, watching people watching me as they walk past and eavesdropping on the conversations around me ("I think he looks very familiar... Okay I just think he has nice eyes." and "I just finished my last class where are you don't waste my time!"). I'm also thinking about the things I say all the time, about what I'll do after I graduate and my plans to be a wedding/party planner. I realise I'm actually quite serious about it. But then again, I was pretty much serious in Secondary 3 when I said I was going to go to NAFA and be a dancer. Life doesn't always turn out the way you want it to but the only thing you can do is to live it because if you don't then what's the point of having a life when so many others are wishing that people didn't have to die? But what's the point of having a life when you have absolutely no idea what you're going to do with it? Yes, I am in control of my life and I can change things but what happens when I can't?

I find it amusing that the people around me are oblivious to my senseless nonsense.
