weekend is good

This fri is defo the longest day I've ever had since I came here. Lecture, lab, tutorial, choir practice, dinner, and clubbing till 3am on sat. Just had about one hr staying in my room. We had pre-clubbing drinking till 12am in Ellie's room then only we went clubbing, but most said they were tired. So only four of us went to Clems. Haven't been mixing arnd with them actually.

It's meant for a celebration of Johannes's birthday, which fell on tue and Luke's on the day itself, but Johannes didn't go to the clubbing...

I believe this is my first sat in my life that I don't have to wake up for works during term-time. So good!! Wearing my pyjamas till 3pm.

Finally I've gt my college hoody!! I can start wearing my new hoody so no one will talk about the only hoody that I've been wearing for weeks. And a college hoody is a hoody u can wear everyday n no one will give a damn abt it.

I could actually get a free beanie with it, but I wont enjoy my student discount. It's actually better in terms of cost to get the free beanie, but it's just pure ugly. And univ scarf is more expensive than the hoody. wtf.

Week 2 now...

The periodic table that I mentioned (for u, zakiah)

I think that's when we ran away from the anime society seminar at oriel college just when the presentation started and the lights were dimmed. everyone laughed at us when we escaped from the very ahem thingy. we thought there were free drinks...

random horses at cornmarket street. aku sakai.

m'sian fresher makan malam. the guy on the right is not a fresher tho. 2nd yr maths n stats.

Fucking hate people talking on the line 'Oh my god, this is so hard. I hope it won't get harder. I mean... it's alright but it just takes time to understand,' after a difficult lecture which is usually biophysical chem. SHADDUP!! yea yea yea, we knw it's hard n no one can get it besides u. pfffffft.

That's fucking more annoying than people who, i believe, get in here by mistake and doomed to get a 3rd class. They just pissed me off too by asking obvious que during the lecture. Just do the maths; substitute it then square it then rearrange it n u can get the derived formula. *to the readers: it may sound hard, but it is not, really.* use yur oh-so-almighty brain (courtesy of rue) that brings u here!

Anyway, I feel young here cz many ppl did gap yrs or national service in their homelands. And some are exceptionally old. (Y)(Y) ha-ha-ha-ha.

Matriculation 17/10

'Finally we're the official students here!!!'

'So what should we do?'

'Do works...'

'..........'

Woke up fucking early just for the matriculation at 8am. While putting on the sub-fusc, my bow tie was torn. omfg, I hope it's nt some bad omen since it is if your shoe lace was torn. Anyway firstly portrait individual photos were taken. Then we need to sort ourselves according to height. pfffft.

'It'll be funny if other people know how long it takes for oxford college students to sort themselves according to height.'

Yes, it took fucking long. Then group photo bla3. Then we moved to the Sheldonian Theatre, where in it pic are not allowed to be taken. But no one cares. When the 'speaker' (whoever he was) came in, silence befell, which was broken by the sound of camera flashing. Everyone chuckled.

A vice chancellor and the speaker exchanged some latin as if we all understood it. Acts of putting on and removing the hat and bowing were conducted in bet them. Bla3, it ended.

When we went out, we were just some animals in display, to be watched by the tourists. Feels good actually!! HAHAHHA~~

Then we went punting, as one guy, liang yi said it's a tradition for us matriculants to punt, which I then found out to be false. Punting is damn hard.

Had a squash in trinity college, onn's college, and a night with the bruneian seniors in hanif's and kam's hse. That ends the long day.

uploading photos

Seriously, does anyone know y I can't upload the photos in one album already existing in 'my pic' folder to folder all in once??? When the uploading is completed, I get 'unexpected error'.

altschul dinner

It's my first formal dinner and it was actually on last fri night. But I forgot to talk abt it. can't seem to take a photo, so i didn't. they gave us a choc with the univ logo printed on it though. pretty cool!!

fri and sat of week 0

apparently everyone gt sick. freshers' flu... but i dont have a fever so it's nt really flu. maybe a cold. that didnt stop me to go to the club on fri night which turned out to be a great shit. fucking regret it cz i paid a fucking 6 quids for it.

had my safety lecture abt fire bla3 and bought a lab coat. slightly big but alright. then had an introductory lecture. it's fun in the beginning then it gets colder so i get bored. lol. i tot the coldness is due to a developing fever so i went to get myself a thermometer. and i turned out to be perfectly fine.

omg, just nw, sat, i had my virgin rowing experience. i waited for a few hrs n i was still sick, but it totally paid off. rowing is tiring but is actually FUN. i cant believe im saying this.

gawt, im seriously thinking if i should properly sign up for rowing but i dont really wanna wake up at 6am to do some sports... and none of my friends is signing up i think. hmmmmmm.

and now coz a chinese girl is joining the chapel choir. that makes me wanna join too. cz apparently if u contribute more to the college, u'll have a higher ranking so u get to choose the rooms before the lower-ranking ppl next yr.

there's gonna be a toga bop later in the college bar. nt even sure how to make a toga.

freshers' fair

The best free stuff I gt is OMG A FUCKING NEW VISION OF THE PERIODIC TABLE. I'm sorry that it's so geeky but it's so fucking cool like -i cnt describe my exciteness-. It's called chemical galaxy II.

It's arranged based on the subshell. So you have hydrogen right at the centre then it spiralled out in an anticlockwise direction with the increase of subshell and shells. So it's a shape of galaxy, in fact, there's a galaxy at the background. So fucking awesome!!!

Once again I would like to apologise.

Then signed up for so many things. The most absurd ones are dances, self-defense of all types (nvr heard of many of them) and a female science society. HAHAH.

A few pens, mug mats (wtv u call it) are typical gifts. Oh, got free domino's pizza slice and crisp sama dips nya. nyaman brabis. pepperoni lagituuu pizza nya.
