Yesterday was so much fun!

I went out to town with Alex to help her choose a new rug for her new room & to find a birthday present for her boyfriend, Paul. She came to my place at 1 and we hung out at my room for a little bit and headed out to town. I took her to Bed Bath Beyond (I think it's becoming one of my favorite stores now, heheh) and then we walked down Lambton Quay just to look if there was anything that she could get Paul for his birthday. After looking around for a bit, she found something that Paul has mentioned before and she was so happy that she found it! So she paid for the stuff and we went back to Bed Bath Beyond to get the rug and then we took a bus up to her place. Before reaching her place, we stopped at Paul's because she wanted to show me where she used to live. Paul was a bit shy and did not talk that much, but he was nice :). After that we walked to her place which is about 10 minutes from Paul's and we hung out for an hour or so just talking :) Oh we also tested the rug out to see if it fits and it does :) So, Yay us! When it was time to go home, Alex walked me to the bus stop and stayed with me until the bus came :)\

I reached home and an hour later Iffah, Imran, her little sis and her cousin came to visit :) Since my room was small it was pretty crowded with people. Syarena (Imran's gf) came to join us with two other friends who used go to school with Iffah. Zaty came too! I wasn't close to all of them but last night we talked as if we already knew each other for so long! It was really cool! At about 9.30 they had to go because "the bosses" have called them back for dinner! hehe.

So that was pretty much my whole day.

:)

Bye!

Yay!

My little sister Nana has received the little gift that I sent to her for her birthday! Yay!

I've taken the song for mangunatip from Rudi! Yay! (I can now practice alone in my room) Yay!

I've interviewed two people thus far, and will interview one more tomorrow! Yay!

Alex and I are planning to hang out this Saturday and she is showing me her new place! Yay!

I've washed the dishes! Yay!
I've done my first interview just now. Thanks Tarita! :) I have like 4 more people to find I think. I tried knocking on Conal's door last night but he didn't open... I think he had some company over or something coz I could hear someone inside the room. Hehe. Hmm...

I'm going to interview one more person tonight if they're free.
Wish me luck

Ok suddenly rasa lawak pula when I look at my e-portfolio profile:

Iqah

Hi, my name's Rasyiqah but you can call me Iqah. I'm from Malaysia and currently doing my B.Ed Tesol at Victoria University. This is my first time studying overseas far from my family and so far I am enjoying this new experience Smile

Haha. mcm nak cari jodoh je.
I have finally submitted my interview questions for Carolyn to check and she replied right that instant! She's quite happy with it I think, and she added a bit to it but I don't mind! Now I can move on to other things :)

I shall now go hunt my victims...muahahaha.

the 400 and 1 post

I've just finished doing my e-portfolio for my TEAP assignment 1 reflection. I hope I did it correctly because frankly speaking, I have no idea what I just did. Add files? Create views? It is seriously like what Jo said, "orang tua version of friendster". I know reflections are useful and important, especially for someone who will be working as a human service professional (moi), but I cannot help but feel so annoyed with this whole e-portfolio thing that we are required to do to pass the course. It's not even graded...

One down, two more to go. (assignments, I mean)

Update: I just came back from Jo's room to ask her about the e-portfolio entry that I just did. She said that I need to submit it to my tutor but make sure that it is my final "reflection" because if I fail, they will be no re-submission (that is what we've been told in class, which I wasn't paying attention to). The weird thing is, how is it even possible to fail it if it is not graded? I think it is only possible to fail IF I do not submit it at all, but if it is not even graded? (the e-portfolio is just one of the things we need to do to pass the course and it is not graded)
Haih ape ape je lah. I'm going to wait until the last minute to submit it. Just in case I want to change anything about my reflection on assignment one.


I just came back from Bed Bath and Beyond and bought myself a new inner duvet suitable for winter. Ngeh ngeh. No more cold and lonely nights...eh, i mean no more cold nights, I will still get lonely, haih... The lady at the store who helped me choose the duvet was very nice and friendly, THANKS :) :) . I was very clueless when I got there... before Jo told me, I didn't even know there were different types of duvet for different types of weather. (Hey, it's my first time living overseas alone, ok). Mak, Ayah, your little girl is growing up! Hehehe.

Next item that I will buy is a blender! Well, it was supposed to be the first thing that I had wanted to buy, but the weather is getting colder so I decided to get the duvet first.

Haha. I am actually buying my own blender? Duvet? What?




This picture was taken about 4 months ago during my school experience (I think that is what it's called) in MRSM Merbok. I love this picture simply because every time I look at it, I just cannot wait to become a real teacher.

In 4 years, InsyaAllah.
