nostalgic freak of nature
the semester so far is going smoothly. yet i feel the need for something to feed the extra time. i am trying to freelance as much as i can. the extra cash would not hurt. free time is a funny thing. you seem to have it so much yet you can never be able to find some when you actually do need it. i call it being bored. hopefully john and yu ming can pass me more editing jobs. sometimes i think of getting a real part time job maybe in retail or waiting but i would rather be doing something that is related to my field.
at the moment i am not even sure if designing is my forte to be. was actually seriously thinking of taking another course in advertising. it's hard since i do not really want to ask dad to support me a futher few years. i wonder how loans go about. will have to make it a point to find out tomorrow... or sometime in the next week. hehe.
was out in bangsar last night having some drinks with good friends. i blew quite a lot of cash on alcohol. that always seem to be the case when i'm drunk and need more to drink. on the contrary i did not get that smashed. was still ok to drive home and actually walk straight. even after bangsar we headed to "old skool" limkokwing's 7-11 for more beers and some munchies. i miss that place a lot, the old campus was a much more relaxed enviroment than the mass corporate building we study in today.
i remember the old nasi lemak "pondok" opposite the 7-11. that was the total hang/chill out area. good nasi lemak too, only 1 ringgit for the normal nasi and 1.50 for the nasi lemak ayam. the nasi lemak is especially tasty in the early hours of the morning. when you first arrive in college... head to the store... grab a pack and start eating whilst chilling and sketching/writting down thoughts/finishing last minute assignments. then as you chill friends and class mates would come and everyone starts chilling together. it had a good atmosphere as well with its "canteen" type tables and benches(the long ones). man i miss those days.
anyway back to subject in hand which was me blowing cash in bangsar. i think i shall stay home for the whole month now. i do not like being low on cash so i'm going to portion the rest of my cash really well as to not be fucking broke. this should be fun. actually living with my aunt now would make it easier because i do get dinner every night and there's always snacks in the house so i will not get hungry. i was suppose to go back to penang on the 18th but now am contemplating beause of the cash situation. chilling in kl won't be that bad. be away from penang longer so that my friends will really really miss me and when i return they will treat me nice :P hehehe(as if they would).
i was at kinokuniya the other day and saw a lot of books on design application. would not mind getting my hands on those book to improve my "not up to par" designing and multimedia work. it is just the prices that ruin my hopes of owning those books. will talk to mom and see if she would want to sponsor those books for me. hehe. she would probably scream and nag at me on how money is not easy to earn and bla bla bla... but what the heck, it is worth a try. nothing to lose.
just got the fourth and final season of futurama on dvd. tonight should be fun. with a little spliff in my hand and a full set of futurama to look forward to. i owe it to paul and kok meng who turn a sceptical futurama person into a real big fan. they were absolutely correct. you have to watch it from the first episode of the first season. let the charachters grow on you and then only will you understand the true beauty of its comedy.
i have realized that it can get quite lonely in KL. i do not really hang out with my classmates, close friends i have but usually quite busy doing their own stuff and penang friends usually stay far away from where i am. internet is the only form of release. i go online less in penang. there always seems to be something to do in penang. whether if it is a boring drive around tg bungah or down to vision for a few rounds of snooker. i guess it is the company that counts more than anything.
thinking of catching a movie by myself. have not done that in a long time. use to do it all the time back when i stayed in KJ. would check the movie list. hop into my trusty "josie" and drive to one utama to get the tickets. then hop back in trusty "josie" for a driving around session. i would always go on weekdays and sometimes it would be as early as the first show. so it was always cool to be seating in an empty cinema munching on pop corn and be engrosed into the movie. so much space and comfort... hehehe. funny enough i remember only watching "about a boy" in the cinema. guess the other films never mad an impact on me.
well here i am reminded of the old days and wishing upon it again. sadly tomorrow is a monday and the new life i am living now will take effect. driving to cyberjaya, trying to stand the heat of that god forsaken desert and sweating like a dog's tongue everytime. though the good ol days will never return, all i have to do is close my eyes and it all comes back to me... a time of less
