Was excited to be going to Zouk, BUT..

BUT I was not allowed to enter!!!

Apparently I wasn't legally 21 so I couldn't enter Zouk!

To start off with, I saw Cleo magazine on sale and right on the cover was a small piece of card permitting entry for one person to Calvin Klein's In2U fragrance launch part @ Zouk,KL.

I was extremely excited and managed to get another to friends born on 1986 to tag along.

We were all excited( or maybe I'm the only one who's excited -_-'')

Anyway, we arrived at Zouk at 6.15pm so that we could be the first 500 people to get a goodie bag.
There were around 50 people in line by then.

As it reached 7pm(which was supposed to be the time the party starts), we were all still OUTSIDE of Zouk.

There I was, hungry and tired because of the high heels I was wearing.

Around 7.30pm, the line FINALLY moved.

When both my friend and I reached the bouncers(are they called bouncers or guards?), whom one happens to be a butch, they checked our ID and the guy politely(thankfully they were polite, if not I would have someone that very instant!) asked to move to the side as our birthdays' hasn't pass.

What the @#%$...

I was dumbfounded.


Shock, depression and the feeling of being cheated is all mixed up.

To add on, hunger and my tired soles had already sucked my dry of my energetic self.

I just stood there with my friends.

And in the end, the only friend who was legally 21 went in to get a goodie bag.

To make matters worse, the goodie bag didn't contain anything fantastic.
It only had a poster, a voucher for 20% off CK underwear, a 1.5ml sample of the perfume, and erm a Cleo lanyard. -_-''

There after, we walked to Klcc, had dinner @ KFC, and went back feeling all miserable.

Sheesh...

Arr..Pirates!

Yeah^^ I watched Pirates of the Carribean - At world's end, yesterday!!

Right after classes, my house mates and I, along with my other batch mates, headed down to Berjaya Times Square to catch the movie.

Most of them watched in Imax theater, while my house mates and I watched it @ gsc cinema.

We all bought our tickets 2 days before.
Although the seats weren't exactly the best seats available, but it definitely beats seating in the very front row in the middle, right?

As usual, we all went in with high expectations as the previous two pirates' movie were fantastic.
They had great visuals which were never seen before.
For example in the very first pirates movie,
the immortal pirates turned into skeletons under the moonlight!

Now, that was a blast.

And in the second movie, we saw Davy Jones with all the oh-so-real tentacles around his face.
Oh...not to forget the sword-fighting scene which saw Orlando Bloom dashing slashing his enemy inside of a spinning windmill. (or something like that, can't really remember what the big wheel was anyways)

SO, technically speaking, we were all expecting more and MORE.

However, our (or more specifically MY) hopes were dashed!

*warning- spoilers ahead*

The third installment didn't introduce any new casts which were worth remembering, other than Chow Yun Fatt as Sao Feng, the head of pirates whose base lies in Singapore.

Overall the movie still retained its good graphics and nicely choreographed fighting scenes.

Yet...Yet...
there was something missing.

It lacked the jokes which were plentiful in the second movie (remember the part where Captain Jack Sparrow got caught by the aborigines? that was just hilarious)

This movie had a few amusing scenes, but they weren't as memorable as the last one.

The monkey played an important part in this installment most of the jokes (which I remember vividly) involves him. And somehow I can't help but wonder is it the same monkey as the one which acted in A night in the Museum...

Oh well, maybe I compare and complain too much.
BUT.. it's a Pirates movie!!

Shouldn't it at least have a bombastic ending?

Talking about ending, to those who haven't watched it,
A little note of reminder -

WAIT for 2-3mins after the movie ends because after a few minutes of the credits,
you shall see Elizabeth and someone (this is a real spoiler if i tell u the character) and Orlando Bloom in the end.

SO WAIT!!

I think I blew my test

Well, I have never been an extremely bright student. I'm only average. If I study I might score ok or sometimes good. BUT if I don't study, chances are I'll blow the whole paper I'm sitting for.

I'm not like some really smart people who have photogenic memory and can remember and memorize all they read in a short while. How I wish I were.

BUT, for the physiology test I sat for this morning...it didn't matter how much I could remember.
All because I didn't do a good job in time management.

It was an hour test where we're supposed to write on essay worth 30marks for our semester end exams.

I read the question, and it was something which I had already read and memorized;
all we had to do was write about,

1. the function of autonomic nervous system,
2 . the process involved between the neuroeffector junction for parasympathetic system,
and
3. the process involved between the neuroeffector junction sympathetic system.


I planned everything on the question sheet, and started writing my essay.
As I was engrossed in writing, the examiner said we only had 15mins left.
Guess what?

By then, I had only completed the 1st part of the essay. I haven't even started on part 2 and 3!!!

So I tried to speed up, but my hands ended up shaking so badly that all the words turned into some contorted ECG-like spikes -_-''

Thus, I resorted to using my pencil (but it didn't make much difference) my writing still looked terrible.

In the end, I forgot so many of the points and completed the 2nd and 3rd part of the essay within 1 page and my conclusion was sadly decreased to 1 miserable line.

Sheesh..hopefully the examiner likes my long-winded introduction and will give me credit for my efforts. (let's keep my fingers crossed)

This is the part of my life in uni that I absolutely dislike: tests and exams.

Its been so long since I blogged!
Now, before I start my long winded story about the reason I didnt blog for so long, let me jz re-cap what happened today.

Today's lectures are boring as usual.
I am usually awake at the beginning of the lecture, BUT usually around 20-30mins later..I'll be nodding off. (there are also cases where I start falling asleep as soon as 10mins of the lecture!)

Then later in the afternoon, I had a Biopharmacy lab session which made me feeling like I should have never chose to study pharmacy. -_-''

Once I got back from lab, I packed all my stuff and took the train(s) back to Klang.
I said trainS because I had to transit in THREE different stations to get back Klang.
And, on this journey back, I timed myself.
Gues what?

I took me 2hours to reach Klang -_-''
this made me feel

1. KLang is really a kampung for being so far from KL
2. KTMB's services are ALWAYS lousy.
In fact, I doubt they really EVER made any improvements to the system.

All they know is to add more and more stations BUT NEVER adding more trains.

So, as a result, the trains come less frequently and takes a longer journey to reach each station.

I'm not a genius in management or anything so don't blame me if I get the facts wrong.

BUT, I think that the problems can be solved by re-arranging ALL the trains' journey.
For example, by making transits at every 5 to 10 stations so that each train doesn't have to take a long route.

Or simply by adding more trains!


Now, I think I've said enough about KTM services to made one go insanely stressed, especially if one usually takes the KTM.

Now, once I reached Klang, I went for dinner with my parents and did some shopping.
While having dinner, my bro got a free spiderman3 t-shirt from the emcee of the Sony Ericsson roadshow in Klang. ^^

And now, I'm back at home blogging, and watching unlimited videos on youtube, reading other girls' blog. Lol^^
