Turns out there is TTC strike today, so I didn't go downtown. :P But I did go out to p-mall... Not a lot of people there, but there're people in practically every clothing stores. :P Overall, it isn't too crowded like the weekend, which is good, coz parking is easy. :P The temperature is extremely high thou, outside I mean. Inside the mall is not too bad. I went to those CD/DVD shops, and found that a bunch of Asian TV dramas I sort of want to watch are there, but heh... since I don't want them _that_ desperately, I'll wait. :P

Anyway, the air is still pretty still and stuffy, and comp is getting hot again, so I'll take leave and hope there'll be some rain soon? I heard it's gonna be cooler on thursday? :O Hopefully so!

I should be sleeping right now, but like usual, instead of doing that, I'm online... :T Actually, I think I may be coming down with something, but I don't know what yet. I've just been sneezing pretty frequently lately, and I can't wear more clothes because one, I don't feel cold at all, and two, the weather's been really hot these few days and wearing more layers will be an inferno.

Which comes to my point of the post. My FF weather bar tells me tomorrow will be a record-tying 32C. _-_ And I happen to have to get downtown tomorrow. :O I just hope there'll at least be some breeze tomorrow while I walk around. Hmm... Come to think of it, I may just wear my summer attire.... But I also need sole support for the walking.... :T And then I know there'll be freezing cold air-con when I'm indoors (or at the TTC!)... Dilemmas dilemmas.... :T

Anyway, I did quite a bit of walking lately, so maybe I'll go knee-length crappy wear so I can still wear running shoes. My ideal footwear at these kind of weather is usually some form of flip-flops, but I don't wanna get them and my feet dirty. :D Okily dokily, will try to see if I can beat the heat and fall asleep. Night y'all~

cleaning
Wednesday, May 24, 2006 - 05:05 p.m.
So I am slowly cleaning my room these days, alternating that between eating, sleeping and zoombie-ing around the house. But I'm increasingly wishing that I have one of those swiffer duster thingy I see in the commercials. My room is so full of corners and dents, and flying papers that I want one of those so I can clean the dust off in one wipe.

I'm also starting to think I may need to be in one of those "de-clutter" shows (if they're still on that is). But then again, I don't want to throw stuffs out, that's not my purpose. My main goal is just to give my stuffs some kind of orderness, and hopefully with that, I'll recover some walking space. :T

And another thing, I'm pretty sure I'm allergic to dust. I don't get sick or anything but I just sneeze and sneeze and sneeze. I think I need to look at some interior design ideas to see how I can minimize surface areas that collect dust. (Is there even such a thing?!!) Haha, maybe I'll just visit ikea's page more often. XD Completely random: my hope of finding a nice pair of dress shoe that I can wear is pretty dismal. TAT. If only I live or know someone south of the border, then my chances may get just a *tad* bit better. :(

Pringles

A long time ago I mentioned that I like Pringle's Spicy Cajun flavour, and now I'm adding another to the mix! Say hello to Jalapeno~~ :9 Althou it says it's pretty hot on the website, it really isn't that hot. :E I like that green pepper-ish taste. Try it out if you can find it!

I found some very old student pictures of myself and was kinda shocked. :P Coz I was such a cute kid! With perfect skin! Haha. I'm not vain or anything, but I honestly think my kiddie pic was cute. What happened over the years???? XD XD Haha. Nah.. It's just fun looking at how me and my family members looked like so many years ago. We are all so different now! :P Ehhh... But I want that haircut I had in my picture! :E

Umm... I haven't been doing much of anything lately, mostly because I don't feel like doing anything. Just bumming around here and there. Don't even feel like going on the net either. Hence, nothing much interesting went on. :T So, as much as I wish I can make this entry longer, or blog more often, I simply don't have anything to say... ╮(◡_◡)╭ so umm, til next time then! Tata~

woohoo!

I passed! Yay! *flies around in circles* *________* I can't believe I pass multimedia. It isn't a good mark, but I'm happy to have passed it. There must be a big bell for that course thou... coz that was a pretty bad exam for me. The average isn't up yet, so I can't tell how I did in comparison to the whole class. And I'm kinda scared to know the average... What if it's an A? >_<

Security was... decent. That's all I could say about it. I'm pretty sure the avg would be higher than what I've got too. Don't think I did well in that exam either. :T I wish I could've gotten higher thou...

Only 4 of my marks are on rosi, but I know the lone one that isn't on there, so I can say that I pass! Except that I'm also feeling the urge for marks rechecks... Should I? Or shouldn't I? :T I just calculated my four courses avg and it is lower than last semester's. :( But, even with just that, I think my avg is still within the range I want, so I'm... relieved. Not happy, or content, but just relieved. At least I'm not living on the "line" anymore... >.>

partial marks
Tuesday, May 9, 2006 - 01:30 p.m.
Got 2 out of 5 marks back. They're not official yet, but seeing that I'm pretty sure there is no bell for these courses, what I get right now will most likely be what I'll get when it's final. :T

One mark I'm happy with, and the other, it falls right on the dot of what I was "chanting/wishing" I would get (which means the lowest that I hope to get >.>), given my poor performance on the exam. But it's still lower than what I wanted to finish the course with. :T So.. erm.. hopefully, my other courses won't be too bad and I can still get to pass with the avg I want. :T

Just discovered Yahoo Tech. *_* Seems like a cool addition to the yahoo network! :D I saw this pair of dress pants in Jacob and I want. I like the print. But it's pretty costly and long (for me). *bummer* :T

Hello~
Thursday, May 4, 2006 - 04:48 p.m.
Didn't even realize I've gone without blogging for quite a while. Well, actually, I am aware that I haven't blogged between the entire stretch that I was having exams, but just didn't realize I left April with just 3 little posts. ^^;; Heh heh. Anyway, now that exams are finished, I'll just have to wait for marks. And like I repeat to myself every time I say the prior: I hope I pass. I hope I pass. I hope I pass... ... ... Blogging... will come when I feel like it. :)

But yes, now that I have a bit more free time and am not bogged down with school work, I should finally pay some attention to some things I neglected during school time, namely:

- new clothes, and shoes: so I can be decent looking if I ever get an interview... >.> (no, I haven't started job search yet. :T)
- start learning japanese again: review and self-learn the rest of my textbook and buy the next level's text?
- my website: Think of something? content? layout? play with php?
- clean the clutters in my room: I'm now left with only a tiny walking trail.... >.> I must clean up and dust!

Right now thou, since I'm mostly just resting and being the chauffeur, the easiest thing to do I guess, is to go shopping. Actually, I only do window shop for now, since I haven't spent anything towards any new material goods yet. Althou I did use $ for food, but then that's a given coz I've gotta eat.

Some memorable moments from my trips to the shopping mall, the store "Hollister" is really not good for my eyesight, not to mention my hearing. (Am I getting old or what? :P) Althou I'll have to say it's an innovative attention grabber, but, I just can't stay there for long... even thou their pants seem nice. I still preferred stores with good lighting, so I can see(and examine) the merchandises clearly. ^^;;;

A 6" sandwich is really small. :T And at the same price, I could've gotten a poutine. :X So, no matter how it is supposed to be more healthy (And I shall repeat again, with that much amount of mayo, it can't be that much healthier!), I think I'll stick with poutine next time. :P:P:P

Ummm... I think I still want a pair of these. :P Very hard to find my size, but they're cute! I call them the fruity shoes. Haha.

Umm... what else what else... Oh yes, Queen west has this store that has some nice shoes. I particularly like those with interesting prints + the left shoe is different than the right shoe. :P The shoes are expen$ive thou. ^^;;;

That's about it I think, can't think of anything else worth talking about right now. Oh and the mop is cut, so I look a bit like a ball... >.> But either way, I think it looks ok as long as I comb it. Till next time. *wave*

Who could this be?
kuu is obviously a creature born sometime ago. Its exact date of existence amuses itself greatly. But kuu itself deems this unnecessary information for the prying public. Hence will forever be unknown to the unknowing.

This writer likes to point out that kuu has an alter ego over here at CocaCola. kuu's nature is rather mean, but does pretend*ahem*attempt to be nice most of the time. It is made of water, mostly blue, and has orange spots. It is also short and round with a big head. Too bad the head size does not correspond with any kind of smarts.

kuu likes colours and pretty things, and dislikes all manners of messyness. As always, it needs to clean its room and do well in school, but things just don't always work out the way it wants it to be.

kuu is not reachable for comments by any normal means, unless you have special knowledge of its other virtual or real selves.
The wish list!
Better grades!, Qoo grape juice, Koucha Ouji v24, Skip Beat!, $$$, time, sleep, more storage boxes, space, Lion King SE, Beauty and the Beast SE, snacks, Pringles, Body Shop's White Musk Lotion, bookshelves, mp3 player, Bluetooth adaptor, 1kilo gold bar (>40K$)
What could this be?
The "family" (haha!) above is from Tada Kaoru-sensei's last manga Itazura na Kiss. An excellent excellent source of information regarding the manga can be found here. As well as the reason why this is the last manga from the mangaka. I tend to treat this manga with respect because of that. And althou it's end is like that, I am glad it is able to end with a world of possibilities.

Tada-sensei's drawing style isn't the prettiest. In fact, it looks to be from such an early era that one may even be turned off by it. However, I simply just adore the story. It is probably the first manga that brought me to tears just by reading the synopsis.

It is very much a typical shoujo story, with a guy who is quite a catch, and a less than average girl pining after him. XD But the best part is it didn't just end at the usual happily ever after. What happened after is much sweeter than the first half. How I wish there is a Naoki for me. :3 Through laughters and tears, you can't help but like/love everyone in the story. Hence the reason why I didn't single out anyone in the picture.

Itazura na Kiss, or ItaKiss, as I tend to call it, ended its run in 1999. It has 23 volumes, both JP and Chinese editions are out. Do give it a read if you can find it. :)
