as The WeeK PaSSes by.......
Music : Auto Rock (Relaxing and nice!)
Been a whole week of no-more-exams-so-no-more-late-night-crammings-and-24/7-stress anymore.... Unless you consider packing stress as a serious state of stress-ness....(What am I saying? A weirdly structured sentence there) ;D
Anyway, last saturday was the damn friggin crap game between Man U and Chelsea! Man U LOST!! *ketuk Drogba's head* hehe...
Boy, it was ohsodepressing! But the best part was watching it with Hana and Nico. They make everyone feel the heat of the game like as if we're there in the stadium watching a live game! What with Nico pretending to be the linesman/referee/coach/player....semua die nak jadi and Hana with her semangat membara and shouting for a goal from Man U sampai she nearly kicked the tv I tell you.Well, it stopped till there after Drogba scored and after that everyone can't be bothered to watch anymore and I took over afterwards with all the emo-ness *grins*. Did everyone get a shock there? Hell yeah! hehe....
Their conclusion : Alia sees Amal too much hence the bitterness and the wanna-ketuk-the-chelsea-players emo-ness! So yeah, let's just say, Chelsea was Lucky that day ;D
Didn't really do much on Sunday but I've been watching a lot of Gilmore Girls!!! It's nice...well, not much thinking needed, that I can assure you!hehehe.... ( Addiction courtesy of Phoebe and Zizul! *sigh*) :) Did that and planned to grab a meal of chicken rice at Nahar coz last week it was finished *depressed*, had a great dinner with Jared, Alee, Fazril and Mudha and hey, nasi ayam habis!!!! (AGAIN!!) GRRRRR.......Well, meeting up with the rest compensated for the finished chicken rice, so whatever la nasi ayam tu.
On Moday, all I did was packing!!!!!!!!!! It was a real boxing day in my room...PENATNYE!!! Why do I have so many things...? This is the time when I have difficulties in deciding..."To bring back to Malaysia or leave here? This one..?Hmmmm....I wanna wear that in Malaysia....Don't think I have luggage space....How much to pack?"....Annnnooooyyying!!! and you know all those lil lil things people give you...You wanna bring them all back!!! ( well, waste luggage space je la kan sebenarnye? But I wanna! ) and so more packings and boxings and Gilmore Girls too! :D
Then came the day of the FINAL MATCH!!! LIVERPOOL-MILAN :)
*lub dup, lub dup* (in malay it would have sounded like LAP-DAP, in medical terms, that's the sound of your heart beating, I'm serious! ). Dinner was good! We had super-simple-chuck-everything-into-the-pot vegetable soup and...Anfield chicken....? With a true hard core Liverpool fan flown in as the chef...Chef Iedil. Yummy! :D The match was quite slow and boring...till Milan scored a goal....and then ANOTHER....and then nah,not another, Kaka' is cool!Friendly, cool and handsome too :) So,the routine cycles around :-
Milan scores, everyone stops eating, turns around to see Iedil, *gasp* (only Faezah did and obvious Gasp actually), continues eating. It all ended with a 2-1 win for Milan with the 2nd half of the game being more interesting than the first.
The worst thing that could ever happen to someone who gets motivated and inspiration and semangat and everything-lar through music IS to lose ALL 5000 pieces of music in the iPod! DEMMIT! *speechless*.... Why?How come? huh?... I don't know... some special apple updates that automatically updated the iPod when you on the iTunes....Bleerrrghhh....Stooooooooopid. Give me back my music la, stealer! *pouts*.
I swear for the rest of the day, it was just like "I hate you Apple, I hate you iPod, get lost, leave me alone, I wanna get a Sony la like this" and my body just did not want to accept any practical arguments coz...without music....( which I have been collecting all these while ) nothing can get moving, NOT MOTIVATED to do anything AT ALL! Hey, it's true! Music can make me change from not wanting or have a feeling to study to motivated and I wanna study the whole day through the day. Well, at least it didn't happen throughout my exam period or I might just end up not motivated to go for the exams at all! see....MUSIC can kill my future! hahaha...Over giler! ;)
Shhhhheshhh...Give me a break man... Did nothing afterwards but slept. Depressing ler....*sigh*
on the other side,Birmingham....Phoebe cheered me up and talked me through and berdownloading disney songs with me. heeee! Thankieees Phododo! and another side... Bankside....Faezah got up, got showered immediately and came right away to see me and as faezah wrote... "I'm coming now, to give you a BIG HUG"! heeee! :) she brought Grease for me to watch and comfortness too!! Thanks Fizi! *smiles wide*
We then cooked spaghetti for lunch and well, had a pretty great day without the music, and to end the day, bout 27 new music folders from Phoebe and Alee!!! They're just GREAT-ness friends! Not bad at all considering that I have earphones plugged in my ears practically most of the time most of the hours a day! :)
Yesterday, Alee had a tough maths paper, and in the morning she already had all her plans laid out. Study in the morning, exams in the afternoon and see me in the evening for a destressing dinner! It did go as planned and Basyar and I gambled a recipe for nasi tomato. Turned out quite nice if I do say so myself!!! SEDAP!!!! :) Hope it did cheer Alee up though it tak jadi sangat...more like...ermmm...nasi kat kenduri orang kahwin tu. hehe.... *grins* It was Friday btw! There's American Idol!!! Had a round of American Idol whilst having dinner....NICE. I think....it turns out that Friday nights are dinner nights with American Idol on tv with us being a couch potato waiting eagerly for some critics to come from Amal (Though they are sometimes the exact same critics she expressed the week before and she knows who are the ones being eliminated)! The rest? We just get entertained by Amal :D
The next nice thing was receiving three thousand two hundred and sixteen pieces of new music in a day!!! 3 2 1 6 !! A whole lot of music man, kan kan?!!! Thanks Iedil!!! I like!! :D *smiles* auto rock.....(humming Mogwai's song)
Though they're not the exact same ones as my previous playlists....It did help!
Well, by night time, I was pretty knackered already from all the cooking and entertainment and being a couch potato....Got home and slept almost immediately, but never before I get a hot shower first! I kan hantu mandi as quoted by Alee... :) Selamber bomba you je Alee label I hantu mandi! hahaha.....and "yes yes...not good to shower at night, paru paru berair nanti....". I'll take note.... :)
Anyway, good luck with revisions and exams Phoebe and Alee!!! You guys have just another week to go all out and sacrifice all the way!!
"C'mon lah, we're Malaysian what, C'mon lah, together gether mah ". Motivated tak? TAK? hmmm..takpe la. Cari la motivation sendiri like that.
Btw, You'll be in Mile end this time next week Pho!!! Can't wait! Cepat!!! :D and Faezah, will see you in two weeks time!! Miss me missing you! :)

Oh motivation, please come to me now! In dire need of motivation!
No more hyper Alia running around for the past......I can't remember! oh well....

Look what excessive Mathematics have done to me! Too mathematical ? Aarrrghhh....Maths is turning me into a nerd! Me no like! :)
Anyway, I shall continue with geometry...more maths....

I wanna be JOHN NASH!! a great Mathematician he is!
JUST LET ME BE JOHN NASH!!! Don't make it difficult for me, Thanks....
Anyway,
Phoebe's been wanting to watch High school Musical, and I've been wanting to watch Mulan...? All DISNEY movies we used to watch last time! Missed it... and missing you too Phoebe!! just three more weeks, all the way we shall sacrifice to earn that Birm-London time! *zoom!* Belajar belajar belajar!!
Reflection (from Mulan the soundtrack)::
Look at me
You may think you see
Who I really am
But you’ll never know me
Every day,
it's as if I play apart
Now I see
If I wear a mask
I can fool the world
But I can not fool
My heart
There’s a heart that must
Be free to fly
That burns with a need
To know the reason why
Why must we all conceal
What we think
How we feel
Must there be a secret me
I’m forced to hide?
I won’t pretend that i’m
Someone else
For all time
When will my reflection show who I am inside
When in my eyes, the importance of something has just been lost...
And so, each post has its own story.... Go Figure...
Ciao!

Anyway, first day of exam...was scared and a lil panicky. Hey ye lar...didn't know what to expect! First Uni exam man! 'shheesssh'. Good luck messages came pouring in and the best part was I received them lucky lucks from all 7 of the 'HOODS'. COMPLETED! (you know who you are!!) heeee...Happiest! Tell me bout completeness man! Now that was the nicest thing! :)
PHOEBE....She stays up with me, wakes up early to accompany me, download musics to motivate me, goes crazy with me....EVERYTHING with me!!! My SOURCE OF MOTIVATION EVERYDAY! (it's in GREEN coz it's special!)

Yesterday, after the KILLER paper, Man U just had to lose la kan? "KARDEVALLEY"! So much for supporting Liverpool the day before...ingatkan boleh la masuk finals with Liverpool. Oh well...Milan was tooooo strong, and played soooo damn well!!! (Man U, buy la Kaka'!!!) Hats off for Milan! As for Man U, win a lot, lose some, that's alright la tu :) ~ glory glory Man United ~
Back to back exam papers have been giving me this tiredness yang biler I tidur 10 minutes je pun feels like I've been asleep for ages!!! *Sigh* penat penat....But all's well! I myself can't believe how I can actually wake up in the morning and stay fresh during exams after all the studying and lack of sleep nye... amazed :) Got to talk to my one and only Shuey last night and and....hehehe...You make me happy just by talking! haha....She is my one and only Shura who has the power of doing just bout anything and in the end make me happy! Sayang-ness you Shura Fazlina! Pho pulak accompanied me till I fell asleep after I was done studying :) It amazes me how we three can be the bestest of friend and hey, look! One is an engineer, another is a doctor and the other an economathemathstistician wannabe *grins* (How opposite attracts kan?)
Then today....~revise revise revise~ and my dear kenit comel Kak Faezah gave me a surprise!!!!! (Eh, eh...I mean Faezah) *grins*

*SMILES*.....So there..."The simple things in life that makes me a happy ALia...."
And hey, daddy was humming Luther Vandross!!
~I'd rather have bad times with you, than good times with someone else I'd rather be beside you in a storm, than safe and warm by myself I'd rather have hard times together, than to have it easy apart I'd rather have the one who holds my heart ....~
Even that made me smile and made me feel happy :D
Well, for now, it's calculus 1 for me tomorrow!!! and then I think I shall take a break before my next one next wednesdaY! Back to back papers are killing me! The things I do bcoz I dream to be an EconoMathemathStistician!! (Mouthful nye!!...)

Finals...!!!
From now till the 17th...Hopefully I'll still be the normal cheerful, happy, crazy Alia....Though I doubt it....I did say "hopefully" didn't I? ...tee hee... :D
Anyway, yesterday was a productive day! Though it was a day before the finals...How come tak takut ah?.....I'm pretty sure it's because calculus is not the first paper and music is helping!! :)*listening to my "motivational songs" music playlist*
Studied studied studied the whole day (macam ade glue on the chair....) and the best part was in between breaks, I will always end up talking to Mummy, Pho or Rinee or all three at the same time! I LIKE!!!! :D They make me happy and forget all bout stress! So whilst I crammed all the statistical methods into my tiny and limited capacity kenit brain, they accompanied me the WHOLE DAY! Thanks Mummy, Pho and Rinee! Made yesterday a bearable one and a happy one too in fact though it was just a day away.....
For now.... (counting the hours till the finals...) *scared*
Sheeesh...hopefully I won't get my facts confused and tunggang terbalik later...Banyak sangat testings la Stats ni... Who said maths is just bout calculating and punching in numbers into the calculator?
Thanks for all the luck btw everyone...will be needing them lucky lucks!
Btw, HAPPY BIRTHDAY KATYANA!!!! You're 19 also dah!! :D Have a great time in Aussie Yana hun!
And to Zwan boy...CONGRATS on receiving the Bank Negara award! ..."ok, now, come to UK cepat, doink! or by the time you come, all of us cousins dah balik Malaysia dah if you lambat!"
Ok dah dah dah...now back to stats and mental training time for me! :) (I love mental training)
Ciao
