On Top of the World

by Mandy Moore

For a time, I thought my faith, it must be hiding
Searching through the sky, hoping to find a way
A way, to get me through the day
Don't know where I belong, is this where I should stay

[Chorus:]
Lift me up, when I am falling
You're my friend, when I was calling
Now I'm on top of the world
Top of the whole wide world
Yeah, you've always been believing
Gave my life a whole new meaning
Now I'm on top of the world
Top of the whole wide world

There's a strength in me, it seems, I have forgotten
Now I, realized today, I'm starting to dream again
Again, was a matter of when
I guess we all lose our way, now and then

[Chorus:]
Lift me up, when I am falling
You're my friend, when I was calling
Now I'm on top of the world
Top of the whole wide world
Yeah, you've always been believing
Gave my life a whole new meaning
Now I'm on top of the world
Top of the whole wide world

You lift me up, when I was falling
You lift me up, when I was falling

[Chorus:]
Lift me up, when I am falling
You're my friend, when I was calling
Now I'm on top of the world
Top of the whole wide world
Yeah, you've always been believing
Gave my life a whole new meaning
Now I'm on top of the world
Top of the whole wide world
(Whole wide world)

Yeah, you've always been believing
Gave my life a whole new meaning
Now I'm on top of the world
Top of the whole wide world

Always been believing
Gave my life a whole new meaning
Now I'm on top of the world
Top of the whole wide world

Yea, yeah

Top of the whole wide world

Yeah, you've always been believing
Gave my life a whole new meaning
Now I'm on top of the world
Top of the whole wide world...

A Shot of Starbucks Mocha

13th March 2010, Starbucks Coffee, LCCT

A shot before flying home! =)

*checking the date of my previous post*

Gosh, it has been nearly 2 weeks since my last update. Now I don't even know where to begin with in this post. (-.-")

All I can say is that I have been busy with my University work. I didn't realise that this semester I take up too many events to handle, various posts to take care of. The events that I joined aren't that big as other mega projects that people normally indulge with. Nevertheless, the workloads are unimaginable and unpredictable. People will just simply throw work at you and you will never know it is coming. Seriously, sometimes I am a bit stressed up with this situation. Oh well, the most suitable term is "f**ked up". Yeah, I learned to curse when I come to UTP. Screw UTP. >.<" (I feel so sorry for myself)

Things don't seem to go as the way I want it to. There are always obstacles to reach for things that I want. There is time that I thought that I can catch my breath. Apparently, there wasn't any! They just don't let me. On the contrary, I am wondering I am being pushy myself. =/ I have no idea. I hope not. Haiz, I don't have time to ponder about this even. Sad me. Now I am started to crapping.

If to talk about studies, oh dear, because of the things mentioned above, I have no time to study. For once in my life, I feel that I need a break, a break to STUDY, seriously. I am so far behind right now and is struggling to catch up. Before the tests last week, I was so stressed up because I don't know anything. Enough with the stress of handling events, together with this pressure, I thought that I couldn't make it. However, I know I have tried my best. At least I didn't give up, that's the thing. No one's fault except mine if I failed to manage my time properly. I can't use this as an excuse if I don't do well because obviously everything that I do is due to my own choice. It has always been so.

At the same time, after going through all these, I start to learn to let things go. I can't always hold things for myself, anymore. It is just so unfair, to myself. Sometimes, we need to be selfish. You can't always follow what people say. Learn to be rebellious. =)

Ah, enough said. I need to wait for another 3 weeks and I am done with these and can focus more on my studies already. I hope. *cross fingers* Anyway, I am having mid-sem break and choose to stay at home, due to all the work. I am overloaded. *sigh* Well, get to see mum, dad and all my bros is the best thing that can happen during holidays despite of the pressuring work.

I am wondering when the next update will be. *thinking hard* lol

Lets us "rawr"

恭喜恭喜恭喜你呀

恭喜恭喜恭喜你。。。

It is Chinese New Year again. How time flashes by in which I still remember last year I was joining my roommate back to his hometown all the way to Melaka, meeting all of his family members, having reunion dinner, receiving angpau and stuff.

Not this time though. I choose to stay in campus for the 4-day holidays. It was quite peaceful here since most of the students going back home. My block was a bit empty. I feel a bit lonely. T.T

The truth is, I don’t really celebrate CNY in the first place. I am just half-chinese. According to IC, I am an Iban, actually. =) Enough with Christmas in December and Gawai in June (still, not many people wish me Gawai compared to CNY. T.T). Most people, here in UTP especially thought that I am Chinese if they don’t get to know me. Perhaps I speak too much mandarin already. I keep on being asked by the same question, “Not going back..?”, “Tak balik kah” =.=

Anyway, wish all my Chinese friends a Happy Chinese New Year. May all of you be blessed with prosperity and opportunities. Let “rawr” this whole New Year.

The celebration is a bit special though since it was held together with Valentine’s Day. Urgh, single me don’t have the loved ones to celebrate with. Anyway, Valentine is not totally about lovers though. It is also about celebrating relationship. Still, we shall always treasure the relationship that we have, not just only on that one particular day. It is one of the hardest things to keep, I would say. You will never know what get into your life next.

MY SECOND YEAR

Alright, I guess it is about time to blog about this. It is already third week of my new semester and I hardly have time to blog. My blog is sort of corroding. My daily schedule is damn packed with stuff and my weekends are sort of being taken away as well. Even if I have the free time, I choose to sleep because I NEED them, like real badly.

Back to the point, finally I am in my second year in Undergraduate Studies. Can’t believe that I have been in UTP for 2 years already. I still have another 5 semesters to go plus another 8 months of internship I will be done! Wah, somehow I am not ready to get into working world yet. May be I will pursue Master. I don’t know, the planning is still so blur due to some complications. >.<

This semester I am taking 6 courses which include 3 courses of 4 credit hours! *pressure*
1. Separation Process I (SEPRO)
2. Process Heat Transfer (HEAT)
3. Thermodynamics (THERMO)
4. Professional Communication Skills (PCS)
5. Computational Method (COMET)
6. Modern Music 1

So far I am enjoying THERMO, PCS and COMET class the most. COMET is a mathematics subject but it involves too many calculations which are up to 6 decimal places. Imagine hitting your calculator again and again with all those numbers which seem to reach infinity. =.= Still, I start to enjoy this course. PCS is kind of scary though since it is somewhat similar to public speaking but it demands more from us. I like my lecturer. Hope for the best. *cross fingers* THERMO, hmm, as the girls claim, our lecturer is hot. LOL.

HEAT lecturer sucks, I feel damn bored in the class. Feel want to skip all the classes but I don’t think he minds. =D Yet, the course is 4-credit hour. Can’t take it easily. *dies* T.T
SEPRO, the lecturer was my physical lecturer back in first year first semester. Monotonous tone…

Modern Music, I am playing trombone! Looking forward to enjoy this class as well.

Guess that is all I can say for now. I am not sure when will be the next update but one thing I can assure you that I will be FREAKING busy once this holidays end with all the events and academic stuff that I have to deal with. Perhaps can only catch a break during mid-sem break which is coming in 4 weeks time. *excited*

Till here for now. See you!

*Been to club last week to celebrate Sze Mei’s birthday. First timer. Frankly, I enjoyed it! I like the stress-free feeling. Loud music, dancing (lol!), drinking (only 2 bottles of Carlsberg)… Let do it again! =D
Don't stop, make it pop.
DJ blows the speakers up.
Tonight, Imma fight.
TIll we see the sunlight.
Tik Tok, on the clock.
But the party don't stop.. no...

Freshie me

Just browsing through my old photos in my lappy and found this. Gosh, it was taken like 2 years ago, back in 2008 where I just entered UTP. It was when I stayed at old V5. Miss the time there. Bring back all the memories.

This is just so random.. lol

I have been busy with stuff lately even though it is just second week. I know, it is insane. I hardly have time off now. Almost every night is occupied with meetings. Note the letter, "s". Yeah, guess I need to learn to say no. Since I already promise to help, I shall keep it.

Anyway, posting this up just for the sake of updating. I promise a more detailed update in later post. See ya!

*Am going back for mid-sem break. *excited*
