AAAHHHH. I finally will be not so busy this week!!!!!!

:):):):):):):):):):):):):):)

The due date of one of my work is pushed to the week after it's supposed to be due and all I basically need to do is do a bit of research and sketches. NO SCALE MODELS FOR NEXT WEEK and that usually takes ages to do, not to mention a lot of £££ involved.

Ugh but it still means that i need to catch up with my other modules. Because of one module, I had to sacrifice the rest, I didn't bother to do any of the exercises given by my other lecturers. And now I can focus more on them and TRY to start working on my other courseworks.

Starting November, I am trying to balance my time for each of the modules (boring dry useless modules like Transport Engineering I won't bother much)and keep my work, diary and notes up to date. The problem is, Architecture work takes too much time and almost every week, there'd be something that we have to prepare and present. So far we have 4 who dropped out of Architecture, 2 this week. Now there are 13 of us left.

But I'm just going to put work aside for a while. I seem to talk about just that lately.

Straight after my lecture just now, I played Little Big Planet. It's like being lost in my own little world, I can just do about anything. To those who hasn't played the game, it's some sort of platform game where you can put your own marks on the levels using photos, stickers, objects, etc. It's like an adventure game you can decorate yourself. Besides decorating the levels, you can decorate your Pod which is sort of like your home in between levels. You can also customize your Sackboy (the character you play in the game) with costumes, and change his/her looks. You can even create your own levels. Please buy the game so I can add you up and we can play together (apparently we can play sama-sama online). It may be a for 7+ game, but I'm telling you, there are bloody hard obstacles to get through and it can be so frustrating. The best thing about the game is that you can play with more than one friend in the levels, and it's more fun that way. I've just discovered that I can slap my mates, besides pushing and pulling them. Did I forget to mention you can control the head, arms, body and facial expressions of the Sackboy? I can spend a while just controlling the Sackboy's body. Unfortunately, you cannot control the Sackboy to do the Macarena, I tried :(

So I spent more than an hour playing that just now. And now I have absolutely nothing to do here. I'd like to clean up but my body's aching right now bagas main netball yesterday (YES WE FINALLY PLAYED NETBALL IN SOTON) and it felt really great to be able to play again. We're doing it most probably every week from now on, I dooo hope so cos I feel more hyped up to work after that. Also I need some activity to do besides main game to buang stress.

I'm still waiting for a couple of books from Amazon. It's been a week and baru one ada. I'm collecting Lisa Kleypas's books at the moment. My aunt introduced me to them and I'm hooked, she's got great books. FYI, they're romance books so don't bother if you're not interested, I'm a hopeless romantic and I love historical romances. Lately I'm having trouble sleeping, and reading books keep me from rasa kan toss and turn every minute. I hope more will arrive today.

It's almost November, which means I'll be getting Band Hero and DJ Hero soon. I haven't played Guitar Hero in a while and my skills are deteriorating (not to imply that I'm good at it, but I'm just getting from bad to worse) pasal kerusi kami tinggi wah, payah kan main :P

Maybe I'll play Guitar Hero later.

My head is so crammed with boring Civil Engineering stuff. I need to get out and SHOP! I've been holding myself from it and I don't think I can hold myself any longer. I've been doing well with managing my money at the moment I think, only buying necessary items, except for the quite expensive jacket but that was like 3 weeks ago and that's the only item of clothing I bought since I've got back here. I need to splurge, I don't care. I've been so damned good this month, I deserve it.

My behaving so well financially may be due to the fact that I've got so much work to do these past weeks, even grocery shopping felt like a waste of time last week, resulting in me eating Indomee and Maggi only for a couple of days. Now I think all of us in the house are planning to just get the delivery in ASDA saja for our grocery, cos it takes so long to get there.

Omigod, I'm starving, but it feels nice to lie down right now.

On the second thought, I might not want to play Guitar Hero later, my limbs sakit.

I can't wait for the weekend, but it's still Monday :'(
