translation class...

4th sem wasn't any good headstart...timetable is really sucky..cramp up all lectures in one day(tuesday) and only one tutorial session for the rest of the days except for sundays,meaning I am having classes on saturday..i am like WHAT THE HELL LA?! I dun think this is the right way to arrange a timetable...it's really SUCKY and it can be tiring to only attend one class a day as u have to walk all the way there for only a 2 hrs class...

btw,attended translation lecture on tuesday...it was in a way boring and funny at the same time..just when u think it's starting to get boring,there is always something that makes u laugh...this are a few of the translations I learned on that day..some indeed are really special...

ST(Source Text): Have some water chestnuts. They are good for you
TT1(Target Text): Makanlah air buah dada ini. Memang baik untuk awak. -->direct translation
TT2: Makanlah sengkuang Cina ini. Memang baik untuk awak.

ST: She is wearing an orange hat.
TT1: Dia memakai topi berwarna oren.
TT2: Dia memakai topi berwarna kuning pinang masak.--> this is the exact description of orange

ST: Those apple green shoes look good on you.
TT1: Kasut hijau epal itu padan dengan awak.
TT2: Kasut hijau pucuk pisang itu padan dengan awak.

ST: Once you pop, the fun doesn't stop.
TT1: Sekali anda meletup, rasa happy tak berhenti(???)
TT2: Cuba sekali, keseronokan sudah pasti.

I guess this is how translation works..I think lectures are gonna get more and more interesting if this continues...

updates!!

updates here they come! reminding me of ryn who has been asking me to update..really sorry coz I shifted into a new hse back in KL and we had to get all the telephone line setup again..that is y I can't blog for the past 1 week...

Back in Klang today really makes me feel comfortable..I still can't really adapt to the new environment in that newly renovated house alongside with the smell of paint and bathroom floors full of sand. Though the facilities in that hse is twice better than the old one,but I think I still need some time to adapt..Futhermore with a few of the new housemates and the absence of my roommates,nothing makes me feel even more uncomfortable..distance to college is even further now that I have shifted and that makes life seem rather difficult..walking to college and back home is really differrent coz the roads back home are rather quiet..seems dangerous...cleaning the hse was tiresome but sleeping was hard that nite as it was the first nite..now that I have a TV there,I thought it would be good but it did not turn out as it seems as the TV is only provided with a cheapscate antenna..U can't even watch TV3 clearly..the conclusion is,living in that new hse for the past 1 week is nearing hell but I think as time passess by and when everyone are back,it will be fine..hope so!

Sem 4 started but it was really crappy as all my classes were cancelled but I can't come back home as I had to finish up the stuff left undone for the exhibition week..Decorating soft boards really isn't what I am good at..Typing those words over and over again just to get the size right is one thing,pinning them up and hurting my fingers is another,walking round the college pinning up flaglines took up most of my energy for the day, imagine walking round that huge college and going to places which u are not familiar with,which u don't go that often doesn't make my job easier but luckily I did not get lost,going home after 8pm almost every night just to make sure I have finished up as much as I can was really tiring..Despite all that,it was a pleasure working with the rest of the board..they are really nice ppl..it was the same feeling I had working with the ex EXCO but this time it feels more comfortable and the working environment is always filled with laughter..it was never silent in that dancing room and FAU room..and when u have a look at their work,it's really good compared to mine...how I envy what they had done to their boards...I just hope that all the effort put in by them would be appreciated..the exhibition is next week!

me signing off...

Birthday gurl...

15th of May is a date I will always remember as it is my birthday..Dun be suprised but I was born on my dad's birthday in 1988..I always tell my mum that I was her present to my dad on that particular year..LOL..

Well,before this birthdays to me was all about exams and studying..I mean it's predictable..back in high school,this time around it's always the mid term..mid term and mid term..it was never holidays as far as I can rmb..I never did know how it felt like to have my birthday in the holidays...what will I be doing,I always wonder...This year,it was different..finally I had it in my holidays...I was really happy and I am now..though there wasn't any celebrations but with the amount of friends and family that wished me,I felt that I was someone to them...

thanx guys..really appreciate the effort u guys put in to wish me a HAPPY BIRTHDAY...n thnx to caryn who thought of coming over but din make it in the end..it's alrite..the wishes are sufficient to make me happy...that all I need..hate to admit it but it might be the best birthday I have ever had...

17 minutes have passed...happy belated to daddy!oops!i forgot to wish him...and he is fast asleep now...

dedicated to mummy!

well,today was mother's day..n the day before was nurses day..2 celebrations in a weekend..my mum celebrates both as she is a nurse(of course an ethical one) and being a superb mum,she deserves another day celebrating all the things she had done for her children and all the sacrifices in order to bring up her 2 not-very-expressive children...

I have to admit that my bro and I are not very expressive..we dun really really noe how to show that we care though deep down she is the person we admire the most,the one we respect and of course the one we love forever and ever..To me,gifts cannot be compared to the love we can give and the happiness on her face when we actually take the iniciative to do something without her nagging..she always tells me "if u are not tired of hearing,I am tired of talking,so can u pls just do as I say?"

I also admit that I am not a very obedient daughter,sometimes I even rebel..but by the end of the day,I find her words truthful enough to get thru life...like the old saying"ngo sek yim toa gou lei sek fan"(in cantonese)...I also admire her courage in fighting her illness..she fights it with all her might though she is suffering just like any other cancer patients..going thru chemo can be really sickening but she made it thru 2 complete cycles..though she did not complete all 6 cycles but 2 is sufficient enough to test her determination and courage to carry on with her life...I do know why she did not give up that easily..2 words(her children)..I might not understand what she had gone through and what it felt like to be a cancer patient but I can understand and also trust her love for us..

this is my superb mum! love ya!

new me!

it finally RAIN in klang after a few days of 34 degrees weather...freaking hot la! that few days at home feels like I am in a huge oven...baking myself into a giant cookie...since it's that hot and stuffy,I got my haircut..secondly it's because I wanted to get a new hairstyle too...I got my fringe shorterand I maintain the length at the back,got it more layered n thinner...btw,this picture is taken with my new phone too...hehe...
