April So Far

April has been crazy thus far. Assignments and projects. My finals are still ongoing, but I only have three papers left next week, and at a very 'friendly' schedule. Just yesterday, all assignments, projects, presentations and quizzes ended officially. Now everybody... PUT YOUR HANDS UP IN THE AIR AND WAVE IT LIKE YOU JUST DON'T CARE!

But before that, the past month was zomg crazy. At one point I ran around in heels, my laptop died on me, got fucked by an ATM machine, and was walking around barefooted in the rain. That isn't the cream of the crop yet. Like I said, April has been a really crazy month. Although it hasn't ended yet, but that will be another story, at another post.

My exam schedule this time round is rather relaxed. We had only done two papers so far; Mass Media & Society and Media Management on last Monday and Thursday. These couple of weeks had been insane. Lots of rushing, running around, and ranting. I now call it, the 3 R's. No, make it 3 R's and one C, cause believe me, with the things that happened, ALOT of cursing was involved.

Let me bring you to the earlier events that happened. For instance, the bloody ATM machine. The fucked up ATM. I was having a not-so-lovely day, that one Sunday. I called the Christina up, and decided to hang and have dinner. And so we hung, chilled, girl-talked etc. Got hyped up at one point, but only to be disappointed, all escalated emotions brought down. Down, down, down... It's like someone HAD to throw a wet blanket on my dreams. And it gets worse. I was running low on cash, so I had to go to the ATM. I couldn't withdraw from the CIMB one cause it was after 10.30pm and no withdrawals are allowed, so I proceeded with the RHB one, which was next to it. I will skip the dreadful details, but in conclusion, the freaking ATM didn't give me my money. I made a transaction, but there was no cash. I was there hoping for that opening thingy to give me my money, but it didn't. Just imagine, how fucked up is that. And and, the money was deducted from my account when I checked the balance inquiry right after. WTF MAN. I was just completely and utterly low in spirits, I couldn't stay on anymore. So that was my night. 

Nevertheless, on a brighter note, I did get my money back. Filled up some forms and stuff, and a few days later, my money is back. Like it hasn't been touched! :)

So that was my ATM machine blues. Now moving on to probably one of the most fucked up situations of April. Or rather, the year so far! While rushing to complete my marketing assignment (it's a 12 page-long essay mind you), my laptop died on me that night before my deadline the next day. Like holycrapwtf! Some anti-virus thing starts scanning and apparently laptop is infected with 38 viruses. What's worse is that although I can still turn it on, but I can't do anything. I can't open Mozilla, my Microsoft Word documents, or any files for that matter of fact. Which means, I can't do shit at all lah. GRR. So in the end, I copied the necessary to my pendrive, and went over to Kepong and crash Christina's place later that night. Then, I managed to complete the other questions, but we stayed up, and boy, I couldn't really remember much, but it was one crazy night. I called the boy and muttered nonsense, giggled alot.. The usual Angelyn's syndrome when hyped up, albeit an adrenaline rush, panic, or depression. Lol.

That was the night. I went to bed, getting only about four hours of sleep. I woke up the next morning, feeling so lethargic, and completely blur and just too lazy to get up. I had to hand in the assignment and do a presentation for Media Management. And we were late to college. But thank god I received a call in the morning, oh-so-lovely :), and rushed our way. Upon reaching Centrepoint (where she parked her car), I brisk-walked to college. I must seem like a mad woman, hair messed up, perspiring like never before, and muttering occasional profanities that escaped my sailor mouth that morning (lol). Little did I know, the pendrive that I slipped into my pocket dropped out. And I didn't know about this till I arrive in class. I threw everything out of my bag, panicked, and ran out of class, out of the college compound to look for it. I didn't go further cause it'll be too tiresome. Went back to class, be done with my presentation (which I did not prepare whatsoever, just blurted out from the top of my head) and rushed out to look for it again. I traced my steps, went all the way until I saw it lying by the pavement near the drain. Oh thank god I found you! There was probably an instant spark on my face at that moment. *grins*

 In the end, I managed to pass up what I needed on time. Peanuts (my marketing lecturer's pseudonym) assignment, essays etc. I just finished my final project for photography yesterday. My photoshoot was so last minute, last Wednesday and Thursday, but all was cool. I had fun shooting Melia. This project is all about commercial photography, so I chose this body mist fragrance called Amber Romance. My themes were Sweet & Natural and Seductive & Glamorous.











We had to manipulate the pictures; and only having less than a day to edit and do all the Photoshop magic, I came up with mehh work. 

I conjured this up while having lunch at Pizza Milano. At one point, I smashed my keyboard because I was so stressed up! But as usual, I managed to get it done, so, yayy me!




Finally, I'm done with all projects whatsoever yesterday! Journalism assignment and presentation, the photography editing and manipulating all done in less than 12 hours. I didn't get sufficient sleep that night, dozed off for two hours, got up and finished the necessary for about three hours, then went to bed. It was so warm, as I was trying to sleep, I can feel my senses somewhat intensified. I wondered whether was I asleep, having a nightmare, or was I awake, trying to shut my eyes. I don't know how to put them in words, but it's as though I'm in this realm between consciousness and slumber. I never felt anything like it. Anyhow, I did get some sleep, but not enough.

Yesterday was a really long day. The day was full of 3 R's. My feet hurt like a bitch cause I was wearing heels the whole day, over 15 hours. At one point, I was walking barefooted in the rain, on the tar road. We were rushing to get back to college from One Utama, so we went outside to catch a cab. An umbrella couldn't cover the both of us, so I was slightly wet. And I didn't feel like walking in my heels, so off they go! Got back to college, still walking around like some primal being. People are looking like, "what's wrong with this girl?" And to them I give the -.- look. Ke ke.

I feel the weight on my shoulders lessen, so now, back to studying. Three more papers to go; Journalism, Marketing, and Public Relations. Darn, I don't like the last one. It's so not my forte. I fucked the quiz yesterday. Bollocks.. Now, that's the end for today. It's a Saturday night and I'm here hibernating in my 'cave', with lectures notes and sticky post-its all over. Six more days to go, and I'm done for this semester! FUCK YEAAAA!
