I just finished writing a paper for my BUS 302 class, it's almost mid-nite already and i still have one more chapter to read for my exam tomorrow. I can't believe this, i still have 7 more exams to take for this week. But hopefully i have no more exams after that, at least not till september. Three months away from textbooks would be very much appreciated, i think it'll prevent my mind from deteriorating. Agh, I can't wait for the semester to be over so i can go to borders or barnes noble to buy some books that I've been eyeing...but on top of that, i can't wait for friday to come because as soon as i get off my last class...i'm off to new york baby...=)
i'm at the computer lab right now, lately it's been my frequent place to visit, mostly to do all the group projects..but since my printer has been running out of ink, i need to print all the handouts from here too. Couldn't afford the oh-so-expensive inkjet *damn lexmark..*. Tadi tuh sebelum ke sini dengan pintarnya udah inget2 buat ngambil cash dulu di atm, soalnya i need to put some money to the printer card. So i went to the bank nearby and get a $20 cash from the atm. Trus sampe computer lab, ealah...baru inget kenapa juga nggak skalian di pecahin itu $20 nya..soalnya kan mesinnya enggak nerima kembalian. Ya udah deeh jadinya terpaksa keluar lagi, ke student center, get a small coke at mcdonalds so i could have some changes. Hmm...so smart yet still...unintelligent, hihi.
Eniwei, it's gorgoeus outside, i wish i could go to the ice cream parlor and sitting around at the park sambil makan2 ice cream and people watching.....such a joy.
Life of Erike Greene, a twenty years old girl will change drastically. Why?. Cause she just won a Multistate Big Game Jackpots and received a $58.9 million!!! Man, that's $58.9 million, I don't even know how many zeros it has. I guess tomorrow she'll be busy contacting a real estate agent to get her and her family a mansion, next she'll go to exlusive car dealers and order high end cars made only for her. Man, some people are just so lucky like that. I wonder what I'd do with that big amount of money...Hmm, *ngayaL*
My mom called me at 4.30 AM this morning...please mom, of all the hours you can pick, why 4.30 when i was so lulled in my dream. But I still answered the phone anyway and we talked for like almost half an hour. By time we finished our chitchat my eyes were already wide awake and i couldn't go back to sleep. She ruined my plan of having a good night sleep last night...but that's okay though, i still love my mom, hihi. But i'm hella sleepy right now.
Ah, one presentation done...3 more to go..
I'm at home now...eating a delicious hunan chicken from Kahala..=). Anyway, a strange thing happened on the way back from school. I was crossing the street and i saw a guy in a red car drove past by me slowly. I didn't sense anything cause it was just basically another car passing by. I kept walking and then when i got to my place, i noticed that the same car was waiting in front of the building i live in. I knew he was about to approach me cause no one else was there, and then he rolled down his window and he was like hey i'm new in this area and i haven't got any friends bla bla bla i'm wondering if you could go out with me, maybe we could get a cup of coffee or something. And i was like ehmm no..i'm afraid not. And he was like why, are you seeing somebody bla bla bla and he insisted me to give him my phone numbers and begged me to give it a chance and go out with him.
Hmm, this is weird, i just can tell from the way he approached me that he is in another mission. Cause when he was waiting for me, he tried to block me with his car so i'd be standing right by his window, but i walked so fast so i was already a few steps away from his car when he rolled down the window. Another thing that strange was he talked so slow that i could barely hear, maybe that was his tactic so i'd moved closer to him. So anyway, i assume that he's one of those pyschotic maniac guys who likes to show off his thingy to strangers to satisfy his wacko needs. I don't know what kind of disorder is that but i know some people are just insane like that. It happened to me a couple times a long time ago, mostly they pretend that they get lost and ask for the direction to the address they looking for. And they'll be masturbating right then and there while you're trying to explain the directions to get there, you didn't realize it at first, but he'll show you what he was doing..*yuck*..and then you could barely eat.
Anyway, so that's my assumption of his mission, because if he really wants to talk to me and get my numbers he would just park his car, get off and walked to me. But he didn't.. and i wasn't about to let another shocking moment happened to me, so..hmm screw you!!!!. I know he didn't do any thing that's harmful but still you know. I went to pick up my food after that and whenever i saw a red car it scares the hell out of me!!.
Time to do my case......
It's so gorgeous outside...and i'm just sitting here at the library, sipping my coffee.. trying to do the project with my group..while others are sitting around in the park, playing frisbee and just enjoying the sun. This is not fair, huhuhu....
Anyway, these two weeks is gonna be crazy, in fact it's gonna be the craziest two weeks i have ever had. I have 4 presentations to do (Maritz Corporations, Airline simulations, IBM Case, and the TV show), all of which two are this week and another two next week. Two ten pages papers are waiting to be done, a bundle of a marketing plan, also a bunch of other homeworks and assignments. I also have.. I guess about 10 exams coming up. Damn ILP!!. Note: Do not ever take those independent study classes cause you'll never get it done, never!!. You will never set a time to study for it since there's no deadline for the assignment, no date is given of when you have to take the test, etc. You have to basically come up with your own schedule, so it is very flexible that's why you won't take it seriously and next thing you know...boom it's your graduation day next week and you have no choice but to get your stuff together. At least that's what happen to me at the moment, i have to complete a one semester course in a matter of two weeks. I didn't realize i registered for that class in the FALL of 2000. Man, that was like my sophomore year and i haven't even touched the damn books..*deep sigh*..very very deep sigh indeed.
So i don't know how i ever going to finish all these mess in two weeks, but i have to anyway..hmm no..not that i have to..but i want to!! I do whatever it takes to get over these, even that means no sleep, no internet and no social life.
Have nothing to do cause i missed my salsa session *taelaah*, so i come up with this....*it's from one of those emails you get from your bestfriends*

Day Light Saving time is today, don't forget to move your clock setting one hour ahead, ladies and gentleman. Some people don't like spring day light saving time as they see their sleep time is robbed of by one hour. But i see it as an excuse to miss monday morning class..;)
*Woohoo*
It's 60 degrees outside..the sun shines brightly with just enough mix of heat and wind. What a beautiful saturday afternoon..and yes it's that time of the year again, the time when love is in the air. Makanya, banyak banget nih yang lagi pada pdkt, even yang di jakarta aja juga ikutan kena spring fever dan lagi pada mupeng mupengan, huehe..*ayolah tak usah malu2, you know who you are *. One of my friends here also just got engaged recently *Karen, you go girl*. See i told you, spring is when the good thing happens.
Udah ah mo jalan jalan keluar dulu enjoying the spring breeze...=)
Have a good weekend everybody!
I usually ignore fwd jokes in the e-mail, but this one cracks me up *thank you dina*..So i thought i'd paste it here and share it with you...

Tau nggak siyy, i was late yet again to class this morning and this is even worse especially since i've tried to be punctual but unfortunately still no result shown yet.
Anyway, so I woke up 10 minutes before 8 o'clock tadi pagi yang mana daripada kelasnya sendiri tuh mulai nya jam 8...telat banget kan?? Padahal, i've set the alarm to wake me up at 7...kenapa juga dia nggak bunyi.?!. I thought that well..maybe I don't have to feel guilty about it since it's not my fault..right?. I mean i have something to blame right? Then i checked the alarm just to see what is wrong with it, and guess what ?. Ternyata alarmnya sih nggak kenapa kenapa, emang guenya aja yang nge-set nya salah, bukannya di set buat jam 7 pagi malah buat jam 7 malem..*D'OH*.. of course the damn thing won't ring till the sun goes down!!! Hmmph, .Jadi, terpaksalah tadi saya sekolah tanpa mandi...*adoh ini kok pake di umumin segala sih*. Biasanya, gue sih mendingan telat aja datengnya daripada nggak mandi..*hihi* but this one is an exception.
Kemaren juga tuh, ada kejadian gara gara kelalaian gue. It went like this, i went to my marketing policy class..i was all cheerful and everything, feeling proud of myself because i got there even before the professor came in. Tapi ternyata oh ternyataa, gue langsung pungip seketika when my classmate asked me if i had done the case. I was like, wtf, what case?! Trus dia bilang kalo hari ini ada British Airways case yang harus di kumpulin. Holly Molly, Not again!!. What is wrong with me sih?..beneran deh gue nggak abis pikir. What kind of syndrom is this?...Am i getting old or something?
Hhh..akhirnya gue bilang aja ke proffessornya kalo casenya itu ketinggalan di rumah, and to my surprise he let me hand it in after class. So i went back home, skimmed through the case and basically just typed anything that came to mind. Abisnya mau gimana lagi..udah nggak sempet gitu?
Anyway, despite all those, I feel relieved that I’m done for my exams this week. Jadi santai dikit deh, tadi bersih bersih aja, laundry, vacuum, and other domestic stuff. Trus pas mau buang koran koran kemaren..something caught my attention. Gue ngeliat iklan orang jual kucing gitu, himalayan kitten yang super lucu banget. Sebenernya sih waktu itu juga udah liat iklannya tapi udah lupa lagi. Trus suddenly gue jadi sayang untuk ngebuang korannya…abis kucingnya yang kayanya ngeliatin gitu sih, mukanya melas melas lucu gitu…minta di gendong. Tapi kalo korannya nggak di buang kan menuh menuhin aja, bikin berantakan. Ya udah akhirnya tadi gue gunting aja foto kucingnya itu…dan dari tadi bentar bentar gue lirik gitu fotonya…abisnya lucu banget and it never fails to make me smile..=). Apa di beli aja yaa kucingnya?..tapi $300??..gimana doong? belum buat ke dokternya, makanannya, mainan2nya lah, litter box nya lah ini lah itu lah, banyak aja kan.
Hmm..
Donation, anyone?
Tuh kan ..tadi telat lagi masuk kelasnya, sebenernya sih i got there like 5 minutes before the class started, but stupid me..i didn't bring the assignment that we need to submit in class, jadi..daripada keilangan points gara gara nggak ngumpulin tugas yang udah gue bikin cape cape, jadilah saya balik lagi ke rumah...walked all the way across campus..trus pas nyampe ke kelas lagi udah telat 15 menit...good thing she let me joined the class, accept my assignment and even give points for attendance, cause she's usually mean...
Anyway, now -another stupidity of the day- i have to re-do the assignment for my other class because apparently i did the one that's due next week instead of this wednesday *sigh*....!!. I guess they call this retard alert, don't they??
