Lessons
Foreign language classes have been fun. Initially it was all amply boring, meek, dull and monotonous. Absorbing in every ounce of a totally new language is akin to a baby learning how to talk. Some alphabets in Russian are similar to English but with a totally different pronunciation and meaning. For example: ‘m’ in Russian will be the regular ‘t’ in English, ‘n’ in Russian is actually ‘p’ in English.
I consider Russian Language slightly confusing and of course tongue twisting; it is impossible to develop and entire Russian accent considering the fact that most of us are bonded with our English or Chinese accent. It can be all comical and amusing.
Catching-up
No doubt that it is very difficult for everyone to be connected like we used to be. Different universities, different courses, different lifestyle, different surroundings. I had lunch at Sushi King with Chiaw Chin, a former classmate of mine in primary school but moved to Miri after primary 6, she’s currently doing her A-Levels in UCSI in Kuching thus giving me some time to catch up with her. It was rather ironic... she hates wasabi and raw food but our lunch was actually sushi.
Number of people appearing online on MSN has decreased to half, gasping for air and buried alive by assignments I supposed. Even a simple text message takes aeons for people to reply.
Attempts
I am cognizant that I have literally loss my skills in drawing. A simple 2B pencil can be twisting, wiggling, swirling between my fingers, yet inspirations only summed up to an empty paper. Dexterity shrinkage.
The Rubik’s Cube is a toy that I’m a noob at, I can only solve a single side or if lucky... maybe 2. Proves that I have a brain lodged between a genius and a dimwit – moderate. I think Google will aid in solving a Rubik’s Cube? Or maybe Youtube? I will attempt to resolve it soon.
Entertainment
Managed to get a myriad of movies to kill some time; watched 17 Again, Street Fighter The Movie, Street Fighter: The Legend Of Chun Li, She’s Just Not Into You and Naruto Shippuden movies. PPS streaming to update myself with Naruto Shippuden, Avatar The Last Air Bender and various Hong Kong soup operas. I socialise with a laptop more than human beings.
'Theory Of A Deadman' is currently the most listened album in my playlist. One of the Jon-Ass Brothers is getting engaged; Michael Jackson’s death associated with a murder case; entertainment news adds up flickers and sparks to mundane life.
Departure
Friends leaving again this week, mostly stepping into teaching course. Reminds me when I dumped my chance for PPC by not submitting my photo on purpose; amusing. Angelina leaving this Thursday to Curtin University; didn't managed to have a farewell dinner with her [ the past proves that it's expected ]
Feeling all neutral; 'Promises made, promises broken, expect a simple apology to dissolve everything? All bullshit'. Self-made quote that I recently digged up from my archetypal life.
