92

Woke up yesterday morning to return to UTP for the full-dress rehearsal.
What happened during the rehearsal was clearly unmemorable because everyone was busy catching up with everyone else. It was indeed hectic, to have to succumb our dying need of "talking" throughout the whole ordeal (even though eventually we didn't care about what was happening on the stage, and continued with our own stories of our escapades for the past 3 months) [I hope none of us slip and fall during the actual day, or else it would be pretty much our own faults for not paying attention to the coordinators]

Everyone seem to ask the same questions here:

1. Are you working already? How's work?
2. Still waiting for [insert sponsor's name]? If so, how's life?
3. What you wearing for Convocation on Sunday?

And then the same old topic of conversation would be repeated throughout the whole rehearsal.

When it came to me, most of them would exclaimed: "Eh, you resigned?" followed by, "Why?"

People think I do not observe their actions and words, but I do. I always think it was funny that people asked in such a manner, but then again, it was my fault to have "exposed" my thoughts so loudly over facebook and other online thigmajig. So as always, I replied, "Yeah, got another job."
And they will go all "ooooo", and proceeded with "So, how much is your pay?"

Erm, not a very comfortable question. I always avoided asking such sensitive questions because your salary is really not something you would want to expose, unless you work for the 'BLUE MEN', which means your salary is tripled/quadrupled/........ than the other ordinary people which is simple intriguing and thus, I would have asked about their pay. Otherwise, it would be unwise to ask because people might find that simply uncomfortable to answer.

Anyway, after rehearsal, some of us were split to a couple of groups: Oon Huat OR Nasi Lemak Kukus. So after Oon Huat, I decided to join the rest who went for Nasi Lemak, to catch up. My headache was killing me then, due to the lack of sleep, but heck, headaches come all the time, whereas time for catching up with friends, near to nil.
We went back to ConvoFair under the hot sun, where I was departed with RM90, buying a BMW shirt and a bag. Worth it ok?

I went home, tried to get some sleep. When I met Ian online, and decided to organize a dinner cum get-together. This is because ever since Convo was nearing, everyone kept asking ONE similar question: "WHAT IS THE PLAN AH?" and because of that, I kept asking the same question too. And often, the same replies that everyone would get, are "Don't know lah..", "Don't know yet.", "No plans lah..you plan lah!!" and etc. At one point, it was really frustrating because everyone wants to do something, yet no one is organizing anything! I guess it could be because everyone has already started working and has no time to organize any plans, or because our batch has impromptu/flexible DNA imprinted on EACH AND EVERYONE of us, and thus, no planning is required.

So, last night's dinner started with Ian and I, which grew to a group of 8. That's an achievement I'd say. Considered that we started with zero plans. We adjourned the night to a new bar named "Sugar" and I left an hour later to McD in Pengkalan. By then, I was too tired to think/talk/laugh. It was almost 2am when I reached home. Then, my brain was exhausted to fall asleep instantly, so I ended up watching some TVB drama until its finale.

Ask me if I am excited about CONVOCATION 2010, I'd say "Meh."

I'm not even bothered about the fact that my robe is slightly huge for my body size. I'm not even bothered to iron the scarf. I'm not even bothered about anything that is related.

Life, has sucked the fun out of me!
