a NEW LOOK

It is time to blog again, after neglecting it for a few days.

Whenever it is time to submit my assignment, I will have to sacrifice my weekend and also my personal time. To add on, given the fact that I am working, it is even more demanding for me because I know if I try to procrastinate it, I would suffer a dreadful ending. Therefore, last Saturday was supposedly reserved for my assignment but I decided to give myself a break after a hectic week. Last Saturday, I had Yoshinoya’s beef bowl for breakfast and I simply love the beef bowl there. It is considered as my favourite dine-in place too. The Yoshinoya outlet at Kovan Hearthland Mall is very supportive of Namie's PLAY album, haha, it just adds to my dining experience having to surround myself with Namie's music lol. Now you see the reason, why I keep going back for at least once a week lol. Apart from that, I am a faithful customer of Yoshinoya for years; it can be traced back to my Secondary School days. I started from their “Teriyaki Chicken Bowl” to “Salmon Bowl” and right now “Beef Bowl”.

I am a movie buff and I like to rent movies from Video EZY. The rental charges are quite reasonable. I usually rent movies that have 5 days catalogue sticker on it. Personally, i think it is a better deal because you can rent 5 of these DVDs for a week for $20 but the movies are not the latest releases. Having to say, this is quite cost-saving compared to $10 per movie ticket lol.

Movies that I rented are as follows:
1) Dive!!!
2) The Coffin
3) Suspect X
4) Pleasure Factory
5) Red Cliff 2

Recently, Unisim has launched a new criterion for submission of students’ assignments. Students are now given 12 hours grace period after the deadline; it sounds good right, 12 hrs extension, after which students who fail to submit will have their marks deducted accordingly. On the other side, if I require more time due to unforeseen circumstances, I have to write-in to Unisim and defray an application fees of $50+ for an appeal for extension. Aiyo, unlike previously, can just request from the tutor. Unisim has become quite stringent on this. Nevertheless, it seems to benefit me more, as I am always the diligent student that submits his assignment on time therefore, with this new criterion it did not impose much of a problem for me and it provides more time for me to complete it lol. Hopefully, I won’t be in a situation where I have to appeal to Unisim for extension, if not I will be $50+ poorer.

I took MC on last Tuesday, maybe due to inadequate of sleep, I had tension headache. It was quite shiok to spend almost the whole day at home sleeping, it is a luxury to be able to do it.

Yesterday, I was quite apathetic to go for my tutorial for the first time for this module, so I went for a haircut to have morale boast. Indeed, after the haircut, my moods were lifted up because I like the cut by my hairdresser. I defrayed $18 for my haircut and if I went for my tutorial I would have spent $12 on taxi fare. So looking at it, actually it is quite advisable to skip the tutorial and spend $6 more for a haircut lol. Of course, there is a price to pay for any action taken, by skipping this tutorial; I missed the integral part of the tutorial which was the grouping for my last assignment for this module. Haiz, whenever I skip lesson, it sure have something essential, so rubbish lol. Hopefully, next week, there will a group for me to join.

Fortunately, my tutor for another module informed us that she will go through our next assignment with us. I like her pre-notice at least I know what to expect for the tutorial.
