Wow Slumdog Millionaire has won 8 Oscar awards!!
That's amazing! I think it truly deserves the honour!
The scenes are still vividly playing in my mind and the music still lingers around my ears. It's definitely a very different kind of movie. I like the way how the director added dabs of social issues without making the whole movie too heavy. It was still quite light-hearted, especially with the classic Indian music and dance. Easily 5 popcorns!
On the other hand, the curious case of Benjamin Button was not that terrific. It still managed to garner a couple of Oscars though. To me, the movie was quite draggy and it didn't really have a lasting impact on me.
But still, Oscars is a time to credit the hardworking movie-makers!
1 quiz down but 2 more to go for this week.
The quiz was alright just that the prof phrased the first question quite badly and we didn't quite get it. Luckily my fever was gone this morning otherwise I would have had a hard time doing my quiz.
I think my illness all started from the sore eye. Even though it has already been close to 2 weeks, it still has not recovered. Instead, the other eye started to have it too, with a very bad sore throat and fever coming on.
Hopefully next 2 quizzes go well.
I was quite pissed off earlier in the evening.
I received a phone call telling me to go down to the service shop to sign a document. I went with the impression that I was going to collect my phone since it has already been 5 days that I had sent it for repair.
When I reached, a service staff told me that I have to sign a "letter of last repair". I was baffled. She explained that my phone has "liquid damages" (damages caused by liquid such as dropping it into water, hand sweat) and I have to sign that letter first before their technician could try repairing my phone. I was thinking, after 5 days already and they tell me they have not started repairing my phone ( a service staff told me earlier that it would take 3-5 days to repair my phone)?
She informed me that by signing the "letter of last repair", I cannot send in my phone for repair anymore. I was even forfeited of the 90days warranty after each repair. Since my warranty is about to end soon, I was not quite bothered by that.
I was still alright then. Here comes the part that I think is ridiculous.
This is my last time that I can ask for a repair for my phone and it's not guranteed that my phone will work. In other words, they will try their best to repair my phone one last time but there is still a chance that my phone will still be dead and I cannot ask them for servicing anymore. Isn't that irresponsible?
Doesn't "repair" means fixing something and making it works?
Therefore, this "letter of last repair" should mean that this is the last time that they will make my phone works right?
But no! They are just doing to attempt to make it works and if it doesn't, I have the "option" of replacing components that are faulty (ie. pay money).
I couldn't not sign the letter because without signing it, they won't even look at my phone. But even after I signed it, my phone won't certainly be fine. What bad options I have.
I feel like lodging a complaint. Should I?

Yeah! AFTH event is over!
As a result of the event and also an assignment due today, I had 2 days with only 3 hours of sleep each. Just now during accounting lect, I practically dozed off several times.
It all started on friday morning whereby I went to school to help moving AFTH things that we need for the carnival. After that, clique came over to my house for cny before heading out for dinner together. Then, I made my way to tpy hub for preparations for the carnival which took 6 hours! By then, it was already 4am in the morning! Luckily Loon Siong drove Ching, Jac and I back to my house for a 3 hours sleep which was really much needed.
HahaI was quite excited about the event at first before tireness took over. By late afternoon, we were all very tired. There were times that I was really frustrated as well but its over. Luckily the event went well!
Then, yesterday went for tuition before going to the elders home. I have been missing alot of sessions and I was getting quite worried about an auntie. Haha I was absent for so long that my friends were surprised to see me there.
This morning I was in a total wreckage. I slept for 3 hours only last night to complete my assignment. I only managed to complete it at 9am and I had a lect at 9.30am. Imagine the rush and panic state I was in! I took a quick shower and I was out of my house in a jiffy. My dad drove me to school and I was half an hour late for lect! Luckily the prof didn't lament on my late arrival.
It's very tiring rushing around here and there. Haiz, I should really get rid of this bad habit.
Wow I realised that most hss profs are generous!
2 days ago I went to approach our humanities profs with Ching and another friend to sell our tickets for our upcoming event.
We were surprised that our sale was not bad. We managed to sell a total of 15 tickets! I guess that can be considered good since I heard of friends who approached 3 business profs and was rejected flatly from all 3.
We approached our soci profs first and they really boosted our morale!
There was this prof who taught us gender last sem and she was really kind! Haha she was not around when we knocked on her door and I told my friend that we have to try again for her because I think there's a good chance that she will buy. Just as I expected, she agreed to buy! She bought $20 of tickets!! She is the best of all!
However, there was this prof who I shan't identify. This person is quite a prominent figure in our sch and yet was quite stingy. I think this person donated because of his/her status lah and not because really wanted to...gave us $10 of coins alright!
