Approaching freedom and despair

lol forgot to publish this earlier, meh whatever.

So last Thursday was the final presentation for one of my subjects this semester and next Friday would be the final exam for another subject of mine. Coming up after that would be my year end semester break which I plan to fill with some part-time job or something as I really need some moolah right now. Due mainly to my desire for a Nintendo Wii and a HP TouchSmart TX2Z tablet PC. The tablet PC was a result of a semi-whimsical web search I did several days ago lol.

I’ve been thinking about getting a laptop ever since I went to my current college as everything here from notes to reservations are done with a computer. On a separate case, I have also been thinking about getting a touch pad for design drafts and actual drawings since I was still doing design back in my previous college, additionally I’ve been having a preference of being able look at my hand work directly at what I’m drawing rather than look away so I really actually didn’t like the idea of a USB touch pad too much. So the answer is a tablet PC~ only that they cost at least about RM5000 here. That’s 5 PS3 if you want to compare by value. Then I ran into this ridiculously good offer by HP that sells a TX2Z for 900USD! That’s only about RM3000! Down by 2 bloody PS3s! (I don’t know if it’s that much of a bargain for people actually living in the US but blah, forex is an ass so for the foreigner me it’s the mother lode) The offer is only available in the US but I spoke with a friend of mine currently in the USA and he agreed to help (if I send the money to him prior) so accessibility is covered. Only problem now is that I don’t have any money orz. Not to mention that since it’s an offer it’ll inevitable end eventually; not knowing when is also another source for pressure. Hence the determination to work~

Oh, then there is the Wii to… aaaaaarrrrgggghhh!!! >______>

Escapism

One thing I like about my home town nowadays is that its serene, calm environment and generally simple lifestyle compared to the city standards kind of gives this ‘otherworldly’ feel to it in contrast to what I go through everyday. That plus with the fact that most of my assignments requires a dedicated computer and internet connection also gives me the excuse to be removed from the assignment rush that I would otherwise be subjected to endure at home, effectively allowing me to relax and unwind without interruptions. This was the case for today as I just got back from my home town just a few hours ago and how I wished I could have stayed just a few days longer there, just so I won’t have to begin worrying about the assignments that I have to complete within this week long holiday. But alas here I am, well and worried…

True round-up 2

The crossroad in life I'm facing right now, visualized.

FFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Today I realize that I might be a very very veeeery dangerous driver. I won’t say how so but yeah… haha. Not that I mind.

暇すぎったらありゃしない

The total reduction of my routine to a single activity (game) these days is really disheartening to say the least. I would like to get a job but I can’t because my free time may end in less than a month time (and at the same time, in the worst case scenario it might not). It would have been a better idea if I had went and gotten a job immediately after I left my previous college back in March but that’s in the past now. Now I am stuck within the narrow period of time when I can’t do anything even if I want to…

It’ll end by next month… probably… hopefully it does…

Ano…

Went for another expensive breakfast today, then went out with some friends, then to the theaters to watch Star Trek (which gave me a headache, not that it was complex but… I dunno, maybe I didn’t sit right), and then to my friend house.

That friend of mine just came back from the US the other day and he happens to be on the same flight as the first person in this country who was contracted with swine flu (this which I just learned today). So yeah, I might die soon. And my family members are quite ecstatic about it, especially my sister, who assumes I am responsible for creating the virus and plans to intentionally kill off my entire family.

Another simple day.

I need something to do…

Writing up a post here forces me to think back about what I did during the day and these days it makes me realize how horribly boring my life is gradually becoming.

I guess I have to come up with a conclusion soon about what major I should be doing next. Then I have to think about which college to go next based on that… I suppose I also have to find a way to get some extra income since I’m planning to pay the fees myself this time.

Oh well, I’ll start by formatting my computer one of these days… about time I did after almost over half a year of procrastination >__>

With that said, I think it should be obvious by now that I did nothing today that is worth mentioning in here.
