moving out..n things i figured out

its been a while. a lot has happened and to get it all down would be ihm-poh-sibb-leyh..go figure :p

sem 2's over and done with..the papers was;let me be frank on this. it was better than last sem's..i have my expectations (depite all the talk on disliking expectations eh?) well..i don't mind the fact that i had one 2-papers-a-day (thank god both weren't cores tho i dun believe there'd be much differences even if they were) the timetables were somehow both fair and yet, cruel at the same time. how's that; i cant be bothered to explain..plus a totally unexpected visit from mr.Fever which was so totally at the wrong time and some headaches too..finals just couldn't be any better. really glad its over. looking forward for next sem's. blergh *bite tongue*

my maktok left for Cairo on the 1st. she left for a month holiday with her sister cum best friend and another friend. recalling a conversation i had with my maktok a day before she left Mesia,
"maktok buat ape sebulan kat sane?"
"lepak-lepak.."
those were her words..i hope the energy and spirit is something that 'runs-in-the-blood and is passed-down' to her family members, of course; specifically her grand daughter; being more specific, the first child of her youngest son. i don't think it was even 6months since her last 'outstation' trip which was to Brunei! umayr's flying off to syria in a few months time and alit's off to japan for his final year project-i-dunno-in-details-thing so we all assumed that my maktok's next holiday destination would be either be Syria or Japan..seriously!
>>oh heck! i forgot bout one thing! i shud have offered to take care of her car while she's away!i wonder where the car is now..(missed an opportunity there)

oh well..hmm..oh yeah!!! experience of a life time!! moving out for the semester break, all by myself!! where do i start?

hmm..well..i went back to my aunt's last sunday and on yesterday i drove back to college to check out and to hangkut everRRything out of my room. u see, students will stay in one room for the period of one year, and after that period ends, they'll be transferred (or moved,dumped, placed, whichever verb u prefer) in another different room. and for that very reason, i am forced to take everything back to JB. some of my stuff will be left at makdut's la..but point being; my room had to be cleaned out. for ur info, if u didnt kno, my room is on the 4th level (and btw, no, i 'm not complaining.). i had like, 3 big bags, one big box, more small bags, 4-5 piles of books, all tied up (thnx kak laila for the great idea. and the tali too of course), a mini standing fan (which i forgot to return to widaad.-padan muka ryhn),more small bags..and small bags..not including my bedding set and pillows. aite, enuf of the details..now imagine the ever so many-that-i-lost-counted trips i had to make up and down the stairs, from the room to the car! in heels!! thank god i didn't fall, not even once. okayh, so i changed into one of my flats after my 3rd trip. mak kak aliza was like,
"risau makcik tengok awak naik turun dgn barang2 tu semua. dah la dgn heels pulak tuh.."

hehehe..guess i managed but then, they say prevention is better than cure. so i thought it was better that i prevented a fall-that-would-prolly-cause-broken-or-fractured-bones-of-the-body rather than having to rest for weeks waiting for the broken or fractured bones heal.smart decision eh?

nways, did i mention anything about a locked locker with my laptop inside it and which it's key are somehow...l.o.s.t? well yeah, i was panicking but i managed to relax and hence i from now on choose to learn and make a habit of staying calm and relaxed whenever bad things or accidents occur learning from experiences. it helps a lot! i kinda lost my key to my locker on saturday (which i must state here that such things has never happened!) and i was stressed out and all trying to think of all the possibilities that i myte have misplaced it which resulted a zilch because i was vEHry shur that i placed it in my wallet and so i concluded that the couldn't-be-any-smaller key must have fallen out of my wallet somewhere sometime when i was taking out coins from the wallet. so when i had to go back to my aunt's on sunday, i knew i had to give myself a break and deal with the locked locker on monday (the locked locker with a laptop in it!!!). and luckily i happened to find myself and kak aliza in kak ayu's room somehow (long story there actually) and kak ayu shared an experience of hers and the skill of mengumpil-ing a padlock-that-has-no-key using a screwdriver. so i decided to give the idea a go and so on Monday i borrowed bibik imah's screwdriver, and with strong determination i drove to college and climbed up the stairs to my room and gave it a go with all my might and wallaa!!! one go, whack*thump*bang the padlock gave way and Lubna came popping her head into my room..the sound of violence brought her to my room..keh3..

*sigh of relief* made it through all the ordeals i had to go through hehe..*lets allow some drama here ohkayh..* i have to thank makdut for the car. and Lub for the company! hehe..the 'after party' milo and orange juice was good for us wasn't it gurl? and like she said, i have to admit i felt pretty good back then after all the naik turun tangga angkut boxes and bags sampai rase nak bergolek2 je turun tangga and baling je all the stuff down through the windows. i mean, i managed to pack everything! everything by myself, and later carried EVErything into the car and later up the stairs again to the attic room at my aunt's. without my dad!! hehe..i am now a fully independent gurl!! hoho...after my third trip up and down the stairs, i was actually hoping that my dad would pop his head into my room going, "ape lagi nak kene angkat?" owh how i wish..but that would be scary wouldn't it? i mean, him not being in KL and suddenly in my college.haha..

things i learnt and figured out from the moving out experience:
  1. i will never learn to not be dependant on my abah. in fact, i dun wanna learn to not be dependant on my dad. its comforting to know that i have a dad that will always respond to my phone calls or texts or whatever; and i like the feeling of it.
  2. i am one strong independent lady!haha..what a contradiction of a statement there..other than the daddy-factor, m one independent lady! i could move out on my own!! what an achievement!
  3. i shall rent a truck and hire labourers when i graduate to help me move out and take everything from my room back to home in jb. takyah tunggu graduate! prolly nex sem!
  4. stay relaxed and calm when u say to urself "i lost my key and my laptop is in that locked locker"
  5. violence to a property is sometimes necessary.
  6. i want a kelisa. no,let me rephrase that. i need a Kelisa. nothing else but a Kelisa pleez..
  7. the next time i buy something, stop and say to myself
    "if i buy this, it will add up to the number of things i own and will have
    in my room,and later when i have to move out at the end of the year i'll have to carry more boxes and bags of my stuff up and down the stairs alone in case baba cannot make it to come and help due to work stuff; and so, do i really wanna buy this?"
    whoa..that wud also give me a positive financial record.
  8. i miss my gurlfrens already..
  9. at the risk of sounding like a dork or geek, i am already missing my campus. the smell of the air, the feeling that i get waking up to a beautiful view when i look out of my window, the cold water in the shower that always get me menjerit terkejut sebab sejuk sangat..all the little things..u get the picture..


that should be enough..
