Proposal - Done Shopping - Done

Have an idea about what to send to Fuzzyslowmo for her Christmas: promise it will be a great present and will also be made by myself. However, I have all the component that I needed at home, so should be easy to make!

Went shopping with mum. Bought: Hush Puppy shoes, cream, 1 pair. Sussan: blue jacket that has zipper that can be pulled from the top and the bottom. Borrowed from Library: 4 books. One book about Oriental decoration, two books about Decoupage, and one book for gift wrapping.

Tic is getting engaged, so the shoes are for the engagement party. Tried to find my blue anklet whole afternoon, and found it. Now it is on my ankle!!!! Whew, thought lost it.

Mum and Fuzzyslowmo are making dinner and I am lazying off. Cool Saturday, and I am so glad that I have done my proposal. Just need to get Statistian, the weird old man, to sign my proposal and approve of what I am doing, then it's all done. YA! YA! Horray.

Bridget Jones is starting on the 18th (next week), cool, huh? Saw C.L. on the street, he is nice looking but am sure he has gf, so stop thinking about nice looking guy right now. Why doesn't his gf go out and shop with him? And he was weird, told me that he is going to watch NBA and it's startin'? What... completely irrelevant info to me.

Anyway, summer is going fast and furious. Saw Carla on the street today as well. Wish she is happy. She is with her friend and her friend's family.

Shoe saleswoman in Hush Puppy very friendly and can speak Chinese. Cool. Mum was trying to ask for price cut, but we probably wouldn't buy many shoes now. But you can never have enough shoes.

Thank you, K.L. for your present, but don't know what it is for. Is it for Christmas? But she is not answering her phone. What's the occasion? I am not getting any vibe or any communication with my friends right now. Where is Tic? Where is purple skirt? And where essentially, is K.L.?

Anyway, maybe they are just too busy for their life or maybe shopping, shopping like me! ^_^

Fighting for life and fighting for death

Arafat died yesterday, fuzzyslowmo found out after we went to watch the movie, Hero. I believe that there will be some more unrest in Jerusalem, and Israel region. It's not good for both sides of people. I mean, even after he dies, there will be suicide bombers and tanks from Israel army as well. It's sad that people have to die because they believe in different God, and believe that one city belong to three groups of people. It makes me sad to see people, innocent children, women, and men, dying in the blood bath.

Had a fight with mum this morning about not going to listen to my cello rehearsal. So trivial! I secretely thought that I would refuse to take mum anywhere if she does not want to go! However, in the end I decided that I will take her with me to this fun thing, and take her to her choir practice with SunShine society. That makes so much more sense.

Fuzzyslowmo did not wake up early, and did not finish breakfast. I took her to university to get her results. She is going to meet her friend and go to city.

Hero was a good movie, very beautifully done, and it was quite scary. The storying-telling sequence was great, like Rushimon.

I will talk to my supervisor right about now. Talked to statistian, the best one in univeristy today. But his problem is that he is too good so very picky. I am not very good at designing my experiments, so it takes a long time to talk to him. Will have to meet him again next Monday.

Anyway, today is not over, hope the cello rehearsal goes well.

Ignored few days in my life and get back into it

Work was of course, hectic, as usual. I had to edit the proposal over and over again to make it better. Everyone at work seems to be writing something, my supervisor is working with Mario on his paper. In the afternoon, I skived off to university and had lunch with Mai, A, and Abu. Diamond_storm was not there and couldn't get a straight answer out of anyone who were present about where she was. So she might have been in some kind of religious ceremony for Ramadan or in Auckland or doing experiment and not having lunch with her friends.

Dropped off my proposal, decided better of it, and got wind about my supervisor from university coming to work place. Ah! Made me very mad. But was looking at a real-time PCR machine getting installed. Apparently it was being fixed for some problem, but hope it was not substantial.

Because nearly finish my proposal, my supervisor at work decided to fix the ozone generator hose pipe for me. Cool! But she broke one component so had to glue it back together. Will have to wait until today morning, I put the component back on. Don't know the precise function of this part, maybe a membrane or a place for air to come in.

Yesterday I was going to practice cello, but after work, the electricity at home got cut off. Mum had prepared dinner, so the three of us took all of it to Tofushark's house. We also brought the DVDs to her house.

The DVD that we watched was The Hours. It was a great deep movie, but I couldn't say that I like it. It was very dark and sad. The music and the mood was pretty bleak.

Tofushark's boyfriend was also there, he is such a nice cool guy! He actually helped Tofushark to do her garden. Such nice boyfriend! Very considerate. He was even better than Tofushark's cousin, who never do garden work. Well, I am being judgemental again.

Talked to mum and Fuzzyslowmo for a while before going to sleep. Such nice evening outing. I like Tofushark's mum, she is very cool. Actually played a little bit of piano so the day was culturely fulfilled.

Today I spent the entire morning editing again, and went to unviersity to see my statistian professor from undergraduate to get approval for the research proposal. He gave me a hard time! Oh, well that's expected because I don't really know what I am doing just yet. Anyway, I think my work supervisor will sort things out with him at some stage. I made an appointment with him again for 11 a.m. tomorrow morning.

I think I might have to go to university right about now to see my university supervisor. Otherwise wouldn't know what to edit further. I am so tired of editing stuff, but have to finish it before Monday, the due date.

Everyone seems to be enjoying the summer, but it's going to rain soon. Hahahaha, it's great to rain, waiting for it to rain for ages. It's will help the grass to grow.

Hope wretch.com will quickly fix everything so people's photo albums will be up and running again.

Had been killing quite a lot of slugs and snails in the vegetable garden in the evening. Very disturbing, have put salt on the pumpkin, but am dreading that it may kill the plant as well. Just like my mentor said: Don't want to put some growth hormone on when it is unproven, and may kill the pumpkin seedling. Hmm...it's so unfair, but I am not going to put hormone on my pumpkin. I may just put more compost when December/January comes.

Guinea pig, as fuzzyslowmo said, is itching. Hmm...wonder what we should do to keep it clean. Perhaps a bath? Or put some salt on him as well? Too much salt. Stop thinking about salt now.
