luvy duvy...

For public speaking, I'm doing a speech on Gary Chapman's "5 Love Languages". This time, we need some sort of visual aid...so this evening, I've been cranking up my dormant creative juices to produce this:

Pretty? Hahaha...

So...according to Gary Chapman, there are 5 languages of love...and each of us have a primary love language which we are most "fluent" in. I'm presenting them descending order of my "fluency" - is there such a word?

My primary love language: Quality Time. I'm likely to redo this because it's unsymetrical. *Shudders*

My secondary love language: Words of affirmation. One word - plain. I need to tambah lagi.


Next: Acts of Service. Mother Teresa = Service. I plan to tell Ms Moey's Mother Teresa/Teresa/Free sari story. =D

#4: Gifts. Hmm...this looks weird.

The love language I failed in: Physical Touch. I'm sorwee, but I'm a big "touch me not"...hahaha...at least I'm improving...>.<

In conclusion, I NEED MY COMPASS/ SHAPE PUNCHERS/ PRINTER/ basically my whole stash of craft goodies that i left behind WHEN I DO ARTSY STUFF!!! Ohh...not to mention, the 1 meter x 2 meter workspace I have in between my bed and dressing table is hardly enough room to work with. Gone were the days when I got to spread my stash of paper/ stationary/ trash/ random thingies over the whole living room floor...*sigh*

Ready...aim...

HIRED!!

It was so sudden, I'm still bemused.


Tuesday: My friend calls up to tell me about this open position.

Wednesday: I send in my resume.

Thursday: I wait.

Friday: I get an email from my prospective boss.

Friday: I go for the interview.

Friday: I am hired.


Don't ask me what I'm doing. It has something to do with computers/ projectors/ sound systems/ bighugescarymachineswithlotsofwiresstickingoutofit...but beyond that, I'm clueless...=P makes me wonder how I landed this job. Or this job landed me. More updates when I figure out exactly what the job requires me to do...

Thank God for people who find jobs for me...and give all sorts of embarrassingly nice recommendations...and basically (I think) make the interview part a mere formality. I like this one, "She takes weight training. She'll be able to carry heavy stuff." lmao...

So my holiday is almost over. Time to stop robbing dad's bank account and be productive.

Nap time!

Whenever Mrs. Anna Tan aka "The Magic Script Machine" is caught napping, you know that she's having a writer's block. But when she wakes up, the writer's block is 'magicked' away and all is well.

Anna Tan Jr. here is following in her mother's footsteps by using this noteworthy method to cure brain freezes. Right now, she is most happy because of the divine inspiration she just received from the Nap Angel. Microsoft Word - HERE I COME!

Spring 09

I'm more than halfway through the Fall 08 semester...Oooo...haha...

Anyways, today enrollment for the spring semester began, and this kiasu m'sian got up at 8 am to make sure she got into the classes she wanted with the professors she wanted at the times she wanted. Kiasu betul...I got everything I wanted, but next enrollment, I'm getting up at 9 am. =P

.

So this is my timetable. I doubt you will be able to see anything, but I slaved over it so I'm posting it up anyways.

.

Composition 2 is classified as a compulsory general education course and it basically teaches me how to write college papers.

Introduction to Biblical Literature is another compulsory general education course. I got a supposedly good lecturer so that should be interesting.

Human Anatomy and Physiology is a class that will fufill the requirements for both the Nursing major and the Biomedical Science major. I'm delaying that decision for as long as possible. >.<

Introduction to World Religions. It's one of the classes that I could pick from the Values and Cultures General Education catergory. I figured that since I come from Malaysia, where like most of the main world religions are practiced, this would be a insightful course to take. Besides, I didn't get to graduate from d'NA and finish off the World Religions section. Grr.

Science, Technology & Society. ARRRRGH!! Last year, during SPM. I thought I had kissed EST goodbye forever!!!! *vents vents vents* Kidding. I doubt that this will be anything like my SPM EST class. But it still causes a gag reaction. Anyways, it's another Gen Ed class, so no escaping it. I'm taking the Biology section (there are Chemistry and Physics sections too) and I think I will be studying how Biology relates to the technology and society. Duh.

Yeah. So if you were wondering, General Education is part of the American College liberal art education, where you don't just learn your major, but to, I quote, "Expand your horizons". >.<>

Okay, I blabbed long enough already. Peace out.

America Votes

8 years ago, the family followed dad to US. I was what? 10 years old? *gasps*...

Anyways, it was about the time of the 2000 elections...I was in grade 5, and we had this mock voting thing...and every kid had to go into this cubicle and click on the candidate we wanted to vote for.

So I go in, and I stare at the elephant (republican party) and donkey (democratic party) and like 3 other icons (random parties). And I'm like...Whaaat? There's an election going on? Yeah, so I choose the prettiest picture because it's the prettiest picture, and not some weird animal...and I walk out. Later, the results come out. It goes something like this:

Democrats: 39%
Republican: 60%
Others: 1%

I guess I was that 1%.

8 years later and I'm still blur. Cow was not created for politics.

PCD

Because last sunday was prize cupboard day, and I'm thinking of my girls...

WHOA! Weekend...

Friday

The weekend starts with...THE END OF ENGLISH COMPOSITION 1 CLASS!!!

And this week, class ended early because half the class didn't come...by the way, we had a paper due...that explains the missing people...

Then...Bday boy took Alice and I out for dinner...And we ate. Oh the gluttony...

Appetizer

What was left of Alice's and my dinner.

Saturday

8 am - Go gym to run off the nachos with extra chicken, grilled chicken and shrimp...

9 am - Wash hair

10 am - Wash Clothes

11 am - Dry Clothes

12 pm - Fold Clothes

1 pm - Edward (my father's friend friend who is now my friend who saved me from being left alone in OKC Airport when I first arrived) picks me up for lunch with another m'sian kid (from another campus) and his roommate. We go for dim sum.

Okay, there's a story here. When Edward first brought me to OCU, he took me to this dim sum place. And it was bad. The dim sum was cold...and the skin was thick...and it just didn't taste like dim sum. Today, I was in dim sum heaven. America has taught me one thing: Do not discriminate against dim sum. All dim sum are created equal.

2 ish pm - Oklahoma Bombing Memorial

Some time back, there was a terrorist attack on the Oklahoma Federal Building. Each of these chairs represent a life lost. The little chairs are for the little ones who died. *sigh*

3ish pm - Penn Square Mall to walk walk walk...

4ish pm - Walmart to walk walk walk...Oh, I got me another umbrella-ella-ella-ella to replace my old, dead, inverted umbrella-ella-ella-ella. This one, apparently, is wind proof.
