DONE!!! with the exams anyway. Now I get to be a wreck until Monday to find out if I will be successfully moving on to the next term.

Excuse me while I cry my self to sleep.

Call me superficial but there is nothing sexier than a multilingual man who can sing/dance *drool*.  In other news, I can't wait for it to be Friday at 9:00 am when I can be free of all this studying for the next two weeks. Although really, I'd still probably feel like throwing up with anxiousness until Monday April 18th when failure notification will be posted up. 

Now excuse me while I cram

No big. 

LOL! I'll probably sound like a looser but this moment --sipping on my iced caramel macchiato, while surfing the net in starbucks-- is the one single moment that I feel like a sophisticated post secondary student. In my two years out of high school, I've never done the internet-surfing-thing-in-a-cafe like how they do in movies. Now I only need a mature, intellectually advanced cutie to approach me, then we can bond over being sophisticated and other college-y things.

Does blogging about this disqualify and disproved my claim to "sophistication"? Most likely.

The only reason why I'm here, in Burnaby, so far away from home, is because I had my last day of my outreach in Granville Senior Center , mommy picked me up but have to go to Burnaby so to compromise I got dropped off at the mall to waste 30 mins since I'm too poor/cheap to pay extra $.75 for bus fair. Then I remembered my dislike for malls. Fortunately I craved Starbucks and had my handy laptop. THANK YOU FREE WIFI!

Hmmm, I think I'm going to miss SGSC, it was a very good outreach although I could do without the small quasi rooms. My patients have been such sweethearts (for the most part) and though they're "seniors" I'm pretty sure, with their activity level, that most of them could outlive me. It's really quite different from what I expected, I never had to go"easy" on most of them. I have to admit though, I was/am very intimidated by most of them, they aren't what I expect of elderly people. A lot of them are still very active and on the go. And man! the years of experiences that they have behind them! I was actually very intimidated to ask for any personal information. I can't wait to grow old and experience a fraction of what these people have had.

This past week, I have been joking around how an instructor of mine hates me, this came from a recent failure in an exam that I felt was somehow unjustified. I would like to pin it on being too intimidated to come to my own defense with my reasons and rational, but when it comes down to it, really I know that her feedback was reasonable, albeit unexpected.  Instead of arguing, I choose to walk away and take her knowledgeable criticism into consideration. I don’t know how many times more I am going to feel this sense of awe for most of the instructors in this school; I could only hope to acquire a fraction of their knowledge one day.

Persevere. BRING IT!

Have you ever had a feeling that everyone else is moving on? As though you we're in that one scene in a movie where you are standing in a crowd of people, each one of those million faces that you will never know, pass by you rapidly as you stand in that one spot, stagnant? It's lonely. I feel lost.

And then I remember, I have one last piece of Lindt in my sweater pocket. Now I'm all better

for gossips and unreliable people. True, I am not the most innocent person out there, but at least I can say for myself that I don't actively go out of my way to hear false truth about other people, nor am I ever the one to instigate or spread rumours. I don't see why this is happening to me, in all honesty I have so much going on with my personal life that this situation that I thought I have put past me is the last thing I want occupying even a second of my time. So there, I shall leave it at that.

On a happier note, for a couple of of days now, we have been dog-sitting for a friend. He's name is Maxi and he is just like a bigger version of Aso. Bigger and more cuddly version that is! so cuddly in fact, that the last two days, I've dragged him to sleep with me on my bed! Remember: it's only animal cruelty when someone calls you out on it, that and when the SPCA comes knocking on your door. (KIDDING!)

Aso (on the left) and Maxi (to the right). He's like Aso's long lost older brother! SOO CUTE!

No love for you tonight xanga

Deals are always appreciated, especially being a Poverty Stricken College Student, such as myself. Today (yesterday) was a good day late class that ends early are always fun! was supposed to help KL with her assignment but it fell through. Also, I know I was supposed to use Monday and Tuesday as a study time but eh , instead I chose to wonder around a stationary and an English shop after class to waste time, go home, hang out and eat popcorn with JB then finally catch two movies: Beastly was as expected; a lighthearted movie that you don't expect much from Unknown was enjoyable on its own right. Man it's really hard to find newly released movies with substance nowadays. *Sigh
