If you are wondering why my Facebook name is Ivana Keila, its only for a week till the Killer Game ends. We've all changed our names so the other collegians cant hunt us down hehe.

Some creative inspirations (mostly from SNL):

- Ivana Keila = I wanna Kill Ya.
- Anita Gofradump = I need to Go for a Dump
- I-Sheet M'Drawrs = I shyt my drawers
- Hous bin Pharteen = Has been Farting
- I-bin Pharteen = I've been Farting
-Yuliqa M'diq
- Graabir Bobees
- M'Balz Es-Hari

U figure the rest out. LOL!

Long Overdue Post Sunday, August 09, 2009

Week 5 is starting which means its time for stress and breakdowns!

I have:
3 Tests which counts towards our final grade
1200 word Bio research report

Descriptive Maths Verbal + Written Report

Predictive Maths Written Research + Oral Presentation

AND a
2000 word essay due Thurs. Stupid A-hole of a teacher rejects our thesis statements like 9 times and only approves it during the weekend. (And we cant start until it gets bloody gets approved) OMG! UGHHHH!


Ohh and Currie's Killer game starts this week.. Great timing, cant wait to get killed studying in the damn library or on the way back to our rooms in the middle of the night
=.=

Stress aside, we've had our fair share of fun the last few weeks. Now its time to hit the books =/ The A400's finally got a chance to set up an event for Currie Hall. We were assigned to organise the Welcome Dinner for the Uni Freshies in Sem 2. Theme was Op Shop Night! (We were supposed to grab whatever we can from charity stores and 'creatively' mismatch all our clothes) Had a good time with the new batch of A400's =).


some of the wacky stuff people had on

24 people.. and more than half of our floor moved out..(mostly for uni) the atmosphere has really changed. Not much noise, craziness, fun, nonsense anymore. I know its not a good thing, but i miss how we could always just walk into each others room in the middle of the night and talk until we got ready for school the next morning without even sleeping XD. And also the funny fact that at the stroke of midnight everyone would just come out for supper and we would just sit outside chilling. ok enough with the emo-ness.. it isnt all that bad now tho. We've gotten closer to the new batch of A400's and its been fun so far =)




Went for Currie's River Cruise during the weekend. Though most were uni students, it turned out to be pretty fun. Theme was Gangsters & Flappers. Loved the old school music on the dancefloor. Most disappointing thing was that there wasnt a free flow of drinks like everyone thought there was haha. Solution? Headed to The Deen and Paramount after.




Also, we've currently been helping Kenneth and Calvin out with their Media Project, creating a movie trailer. They came out with the idea of making a horror/thriller, whereby Thinn is the psychotic girlfriend of Joseph, the guy who is having an affair with Olivia. It also seems that Joseph has been having lots of affairs with other girls, thus the string of murders and bloodtrails.. lol!




Michelle, Juonn with longer hair hahaha


Me and Theresia got the honours of being suffocated. Me by a pillow XD

When it all falls apart. Tuesday, August 04, 2009

It wasn't easy.

You know it wasn't. 

And believe me when I said I tried. 
Because I really did. 
Truly. 

But then you decided that it wasn't enough. 

So what option was I left it?
Can this ever be a one-sided thing?  

They say that I'm being ridiculous for going on with this- thinking, remembering, wishing, hoping.
Maybe I am being ridiculous.
But what else can I do?

You left me this way, broken. And to say that it doesn't hurt would be a lie. 

So why can't I stop remembering the times that we had, the moments that we shared? 



Why can't I just stop thinking about you?

Success! YES! The mushroom sauce was a definite success..although the round steaks could have been tenderer (i need to get myself a meat mallet..haha)..so yes guys, maybe in malaysia, I MIGHT just decide to cook for you guys..=)

But yes, the dinner was definitely a success. Everything proved to be delectable and savoury. And besides, give us credit man..everything was handmade. =D

 The creamy mushroom sauce

 Array of food

Because teachers hate bitches too. Saturday, July 11, 2009

Haha. This is absolutely why you should never try to prove a teacher wrong. 

~
This is what happened:
CAY: (asking Claudia-bio tutorial teacher- about why mucus was a chemical defence mechanism.)
Claudia: (explains to her why)
CAY: But bla bla bla..(cant be bothered to remember exactly how it goes)
       Something flashed across her face. Whatever her expression had been, it did not matter. What was left that showed was a cool and calm mask that carefully shielded away her annoyance at the silly student's pestering about the matter. 
       Claudia raised an eyebrow at the girl's pestering. She leant back against the hard plastic back of the chair. 
       "Whatever you like, sweetheart. If you think that it is, then it is," she replied with a sickeningly sweet tone that was dripping with sarcasm. 
       "But...but.." CAY stammers.
       "Whatever you like," she cuts her off, her tone even sweeter still to hide the deadly undertone. 

And the rest of the class chuckles silently.

What goes around comes around. Bitch about teachers who don't deserve the bitching and get a shitload worse.
