4 more days till itp is over, yippy.
had a final chat with the four of us - sara, jen the lecturer/liason officer, benny the supervisor and me. chatted about what had happened in the last four months, what we did and etc. theres even talk about a possible return to oap5 after internship, which to me, im quite excited about.
because i like what we had done for the last few weeks - we did more trailers, more than me expected to do.
for one, i got to those the daily menuboards - the one that had gurmit, gurmit and his dog, paul, hadi, adrian and all. then, recently, just last week, i got to do my 2nd trailer from scratch.
i didn't have to because i could use the old trailer. and i was on a dateline and didnt had enough time to cut a new trailer. but i took a risk and it paid off. i had an idea for it and went for it. and kim approved of it, yay.
if u see the eight legged freaks trailer, yea, that's the one that i did =D
and there's another trailer on the way. plus more menuboards.
this is definitely a way to end my internship with a big bang, do as many trailers as i can.
i can't wait for this friday, where we all meet up in school, maybe for the final time. and i will also get to see the rest of the people i have not seen in a long long while.
and i think i know my grades for itp, me and sara. but i wont say in order not to jinx it. yup.
so anyhoo, me and sara are planning a thank you gift for all of the people in oap5. i made some orders, but im kinda doubtful that they will be ready in time, argh.
okay. i should be getting back to sleep. see u next time

fuck all the taxis out there.
not a single fucking taxi came to a stop next to me.
it was raining fucking hard and i needed a fucking cab back home.
and NOT ONE came!
i even stood in the middle of the fucking road, waving frantically at the approaching taxi.
and they just fucking drove by, pretending not to see me.
fuck!
and now im so so so pissed.
i got mad when i called home and no one could fetch me from the bus stop with an umbrella.
i said fuck it and stomped my way back.
i was fucking drenched, walking my best with my wet heels, holding on to the kfc chicken i bought.
how great.
just when i reached the carpark, i saw my dad coming down with two umbrellas.
i was mad. very mad.
that i ignored my dad and walked past him, in the rain. and because i was being a diva.
he called me back, unsure what is going on. and so i stopped and waited for him to come with the umbrella.
we walked home. i was silent. furiously silent. i knew he wanted to just talk, to kill the silence when we were in the lift.
but amazingly, i got cheered up slightly when he said something funny about the rain (remember i was pissed at the rain). note - slightly.
the minute i stepped into the house, i was mad again. i didn't talked to anyone.
especially my mom.
cos before i walked in the rain, i hung up on her when she said she don't want to fetch me cos she was watching prison break.
and she didn't dared talk to me when i got home. i knew she was shocked to see me drenched.
even my sister thought something was up with me when i came into the room, not saying anything. she actually woke up to see if i really did entered the room.
i hope tomorrow's a good day to begin with. cos for sure, im going to bed feeling really mad about taxis.
if anymore taxis drive pass me, and you're an empty cab and you saw me waving for you, i WILL kick the cab as it pass by.
the least i could do is point the finger and mouth 'FUCK' at ya.

okok
here's my status at the moment
errrr
well, im fine.
orite orite.
let's see.
on christmas week, i fell ill. with high fever, on monday. so i had 2 days mc. i was extremely sick, and it didn't help that it was the coldest week ever! i was shivering like nuts non stop.
so mc was over, had to go back to work on thursday. but i was still not well. i couldn't stop shivering on my way to work. and the headaches. oh the headaches. excruciating.
but in the end, boss gave me the half day off. they told me that i look frighteningly pale. and i was feeling faint. lol. when home, got extra sleep.
and guess what? i was feeling much much much better on friday. just in time for the xmas party at office. what a timing. i went to work, and they even said that they can see color in my face. lmao!
the party was nice. the food was great. turkey was yummilicious! sad i didnt get much of the pasta, it was lovely too. we had d.i.y popiah. yes, do-it-yourself popiah. and my popiah sucks, i couldn't fold it properly and it went .. flat and open. hah. so then came the auction game, it was very enlightening. i got to see my boss scream at the top of his lungs auctioning for a hamper.
so that was xmas for me. i got more rest and i feel better now. =)
then came new year week. CHAOTIC. on tuesday, i came to see that the new branding had arrived and everyone was scrambling to figure out how it should be applied to the trailers and all, from deciding to font to placement, everything. it lasted tillafter midnight. very tiring.
basically, that whole week was full of drama, especially for the producers there. they had god knows how many trailers to rebrand. and by friday too. A LOT. i know cos i was the one who compile each of the producers workload. i gave a whole stack of cuesheets to each producers and highlighted for them which of the trailers that needed the rebranding. one of them took a look at how thick i compiled for him and said i sabo him. lol!
then came thursday. i ran around as per usual. but i did extra work. well, on my own. cos i wasn't going to be around on friday, cos i was off to malaysia that day.
what a timing again eh? when i left for hoe thursday night, i said to the producers "see you next year" and they had this half shock, half sad look on their face. hmmm, i didn't get to experience the whole hoo haaness on friday, but i heard that even sara stayed till 3am that friday, trying to rush the rebranding on the apprentice.
so my trip to malaysia. it was the hari raya haji weekend too. went to kampung at kuantan. we stayed at my grandmother's. i'm glad to know that my grandfather there is getting much much better and is feeling better than ever.
it made hari raya better for me. cos it's not awesome for a girl to travel in a car, for more than 6 hours with a bad headrest. AND experiencing traumatising menses cramps. TERRIBLE!
it was the worse uterus-squeezing cramps ever!
got back from mehsia on monday. didnt' bought anything much, or do any shopping cos we spend most of the time at kampung. and kuantan don't really have nice shopping malls to begin with. hur hur.
now fast forward to today. saturday. suppose to be an off day.
no.
i had to go back to work. only me, not sara. but im not sore about it. that much.
i had to cut a prison break trailer. =D
you can see it on monday onwards. but imho, i could have done better if the duration of the trailer was longer. the duration i was asked to do, well, yea. it was harder to do a short trailer.
so that's about it. we were watching underworld just now. the whole family. hha. i realise that that viktor guy is actually davey jones! lol. then after the movie ended, that 'a knight's tale' trailer appeared as next sat's movie.
i did that too. =D
