submitted!!!

I've finally submitted my precious 200-page worth of thesis after going through blood, sweats and tears...for 1200 days! It's finally in! Another 10 more weeks until I know the verdict...pass or no pass! Scary~ I'm sorta having mixed feeling a the moment, now I know what others feel like...it's not happy nor relieved...just, you know, "yeah, that's it! There goes the entire time I spent pursuing a PhD." 

Anyway, I can officially start planning for my conference cum europe trip!!! Yay!

85 days more to go...

I cannot believe that my studies (Oh at last!) is coming to an end in another 3 months and then I'll be heading off to Europe for a conference plus graduation trip! Woohoo!!! I can't wait for that...and yet, i'm facing the hardest 3 months now...constant writing, constant brain blocks, constant food craving. Blarrghhh!!! I just want to finish writing that freaking thesis already!!!!!!! I wonder how people did it! T_T Looking at how slow my writing is progressing, I don't think I'll make it on time for this September graduation ceremony. So instead, I'll be graduating next April. Anyone wana come?! (:

electricity outage for the first time in the new house

I feel like crap at the moment - down with a sore throat since last Saturday and develop into coughing fits since yesterday. And coincidentally, our house was out of power TWICE due to the heavy storm. Well, you might not actually know, but Adelaide is a place where very very few storms actually hits. I guess we could possibly blame it to global warming...we had terrible and horrifying thunderstorms and lightnings almost all day though it couldn't had been worse than Sandy in the US. I ended up showering using cold water and not doing anything useful all day. Thankfully the power resumed for a short while during dinner time so that allowed me to cook and eat my meal before the power was out again...The sky outside was literally brighter than inside the house and we (my sis, me and the bf) gathered near the window (just because it's brighter) and do nothing. -.-" Ended up going to bed at 10pm coz we've got nothing better to do. ha!

plantar fasciitis :(

I've got awful fasciitis on my left foot for two days already and it's killing me, having to walk to uni rain and shine. :( Even the stash of salonpas that mum brought over did no good.

That aside, sis' and cw's birthday are finally over! Been baking non-stop almost every other day before THE party...to the extend that my sis complained to my mum that I'm trying to stuff her up with all the baking. =P Haven't you heard of practise makes perfect?? Well, both cakes weren't perfect on that day. Still needs a lot of improvement but...at least both were edible???! (:

Bugs attack

Officially pronounced S-I-C-K! :(

and I feels lousy...it reminds me of how often I called him "lousy" and I supposed it's karma. Now I'm the one who feel lousy and terrible.

Took a day off from uni as I could hardly get out of the bed and my muscles were so sore that I thought I might have still done my weekly badminton. =/

I'm so contagious that no one wants to be in the same room as I do in the lab. And it makes me wondered, what if I cough into my flask of cells???!!! Would the virus infects my cells and starts to multiply and grow??!! O_O I think the cold has gotten too much into me...

Better go get some rest...

Devastating

It's devastating knowing someone you love dearly is dying...especially if he/she is about to embark onto an all new journey of experience. I don't know how doctors could sustain all their feelings, not only that, but also to break the news to the patient's family members. It's so heartbreaking!!! Maybe that's why I'm not a doctor! I don't think I will be able to do that ever...

That aside, my host mum in Japan has just passed away 2 days ago. May you rest in peace and shine upon us.
