Quick Updates

Right now online at Starbucks Centrepoint Bandar Utama. I stumbled upon this place when I got lost finding an alternative route to One Utama from Kota Damansara.

...

Today I had the most grueling exam invigilation day so far. 5 hours of invigilation, with nothing to do but stare at students struggling to do Add Maths. I'd rather do the papers myself than having to sit through 5 hours of just watching people in agony, which is also an agony in and of itself.

...

I miss indulging in my hobby, which is photography. I have this wonderful lens that I borrowed from Chien Teng, an AF-S Nikkor 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 which is good for outdoor photos in broad daylight. I haven't fully utilized it, and I have until after exams to play around with it. But I have yet to find the time for a photo outing. Bless my busy schedule.

...

Had a long chat with Mr. Masukor and Mr. Rama over drinks just now. Found out that Mr. Masukor and I are alumni of the same school - Sekolah Alam Shah Kuala Lumpur. He knows my friend Zidni's father, Dr. Mat bin Zakaria. Talked about lots of stuff, including my intention to bike to and from work. Will consider his advice on buying a bike.

...

Add Maths exam is over, which means no more Add Maths questions from Tiffany, Yu Kong, and/or Chien Teng over Twitter. I enjoy these night consultations with my students. It's like online tutoring via Twitter. Twittoring. A twittor giving online twition. Heh. Can I claim coinage of these terms, if they're not coined yet already? Anyone knows?

...

I really want to get the iPhone 4, but the only way I can afford it is by getting a credit card and buying it thru DiGi's Easy Payment Plan. I don't have time to go to the bank so getting a credit card will take quite a while. Maybe I can consider asking someone to use their credit card to buy me the iPhone 4, and I pay the monthly instalments to them via scheduled transfers. Any offers?

...

I need to buy new shoes that are not basketball nor crosstrainers. Something for casual wear. I also need more polo t-shirts that I can wear to work or semi-formal events. Something that does not scream 'freebie' or 'tourist'.

...

I have more people that care about me more than I do myself. I feel blessed and guilty at the same time, for what I do for myself is usually less than what I tend to do for others, which in some ways seem like I am ungrateful to all these wonderful people who really really do care about me. I am sorry... I will try to help myself more after this. I love you all. Thank you. For loving me. I am blessed, truly.
