Finally got my laptop sorted out and I'm officially back online =) It feels good to be connected to the grid again and I'm back in the stride =)
Unfortunately, I couldn't salvage quite a bit of data, some which bore immense sentimental value, especially private photos, chat logs and important documents and files. The damage isn't lasting, but it would have been nice to have hanged on to some of these stuff. So I'm going to ask for some help here. If you think I might want to keep a particular photo or file that we share, please send it to my Gmail or through MSN. I lost all my earlier photos so it's very likely you would have something I want ;) Yes I know most of these photos are on Facebook but I know of some which don't get posted on, so please please please do send it on to me. I've given up on trying to recover chat logs but photos should be easier to recover. Oh and Pam can you please bring along your external during Results Day (whenever that is) so that I can get a copy of the Yearbook files for my own records (yes I lost those too. This is assuming you haven't deleted it of course :) I'll bring along my laptop to transfer it straight away. Thanx a lot. It's very much appreciated =)
Nothing much has been happening in the past few days. I went for the Warwick Pre-Departure Reception at PJ Hilton on Tuesday night and it was not bad. They actually got people from the Malaysian Society to come and talk and brief us prospective students so that was very helpful. Noticed that there were actually more girls than guys doing MORSE (Mathematics, Operational Research, Statistics and Economics) which was very very surprising. Not being sexist or anything, but I always thought that math was better left to guys. Guess I was wrong :P Other than that KL was pretty much normal despite the tumultuous political situation that we live in nowadays (or is it because I didn't actually go to KL? Was at the Sunway, Subang Jaya side). Am glad I met Keegan though. We haven't met in ages and it was good fun catching up and chatting over stuff. After two years he's still the same cool guy who plays golf haha.
Results are coming out in two weeks and I'm starting to feel really excited. Need my 4 As!!! Haha but seriously, if I don't get into Warwick, I doubt I'll ever go to UK despite having Imperial as my insurance... It's just too expensive and I dislike staying in megacities like London or even KL. Warwick is kinda ideal for me actually and I doubt that I would actually get bored even without all the 'happening' hotspots around ;) I think, after all that has happened this year until now, 4A's isn't too much to ask for. I'm not actually quietly confident, just optimistically hopeful, and insya Allah, I'll make it to Warwick (insya Allah just seems like such a nice phrase now :) July passed by in a flash and I've not really done much, more like taking my time relaxing around. Have to start preparing the stuff I want to bring, fill in the dreaded visa application form (it's freaking 16 pages!!!) and get some medical tests done so that I don't rush near the end. I think after my results come out it'll be a whirlwind of buying stuff and double (and triple) checking checklists to make sure that I have everything before I go. Oh and let's not forget meeting up with people for one more time before I fly. For those who don't know, I'm flying on the 23rd of September tentatively but this is subject to change to the 19th depending on some... special arrangements...
Spending most of my time in my dad's office now helping the clerks haul paperwork. Hate the monotony of it all but oh well, don't have much of a say in it... The only advantage is that I get to join my dad for meals outside sometimes with his friends and clients (which sometimes makes for interesting conversations) and I get to exploit the streamyx connection for torrenting stuff since nobody ever use it. So I just hog the entire connection to get speeds of 60+ kb/s on the wireless hehe ^-^. Going to try to amass a huge amount of multimedia files before I go to UK as it seems I can't torrent in Warwick :( which sucks but yea, piracy issues. I got a notice warning me against it already so I'll TRY not to flaunt that rule ;P!!!
Two weeks more, and I'm looking forward to seeing all my KTJ friends again. Keep your fingers crossed that everybody ends up happy with their results =) For now, here's another song.
Save You
Simple Plan
Simple Plan
Take a breath, I pull myself together.
Just another step until I reach the door.
You'll never know the way it tears me up inside to see you..
I wish that I could tell you something to take it all away.
Sometimes I wish I could save you,
And there's so many things that I want you to know.
I won't give up 'til it's over.
If it takes you forever, I want you to know..
When I hear your voice,
It's drowning in the whispers.
It's just skin and bones,
There's nothing left to take.
And no matter what I do,
I can't make you feel better.
If only I could find the answer to help me understand..
Sometimes I wish I could save you,
And there's so many things that I want you to know.
I won't give up 'til it's over.
If it takes you forever, I want you to know that..
If you fall, stumble down, I'll pick you up off the ground.
If you lose faith in you, I'll give you strength to pull through.
Tell me you won't give up,
'Cause I'll be waiting if you fall.
You know I'll be there for you.
If only I could find the answer to take it all away..
Sometimes I wish I could save you,
And there's so many things that I want you to know.
I won't give up 'til it's over.
If it takes you forever, I want you to know..
I wish I could save you..
I want you to know..
I wish I could save you..
