Ice Storm? Yes? No? Maybe?

Remember this?

Remember this?
Exactly one year ago, U of A was closed 4 days in a row.
The longest it has ever closed in a year.
Ice-storm 2009, caused so much inconvenience for those off campus.
I was lucky I guess, the dorms were not exactly affected.
While everyone was scramming around for heat and food and hot water, I was sleeping in my warm bed and watching tv all day.
*wide grin*
Maybe these pictures will remind you how it was:





Oh ya, for those who know me, you're probably shaking your heads when you see my pictures..
Yes, I had those bright ideas to go around in the ice because I wanted McD so much! and I needed pictures for memory's sake! haha

They say it's going to happen again...
This time, worse..
Is that a good thing or a bad thing?
This time, I'm staying off campus, that means I might lose electricity and heat...
No food, no heater, no hot water, no electricity...
At these times, I wish I was still in Yocum.

Avatar 3D

Last Friday, right after work, my friend and I headed to the theaters for a movie we've been trying to watch forever...avatar 3D! Tickets are always sold out and the place is packed like sardines! Anyway, the movie was awesome! The sound and technical effects were really nice, and the story depicted was really interesting. No wonder some people say it's the next titanic...lol..so, here's the trailer link (although I assume most people have already watched it):

Still having fun.


Classes has been fun so far, fun as in I am still in my normal mode. haha, no worries, not in my stress mode yet. As for those who know, stress mode is B-A-D for everyone around me..haha..anyways, even with this 1 accounting class I'm taking right now, I think I'm still doing fine. (p.s it helps with my patience..until I run out of patience, that is..)

This semester is definitely going to be a very challenging one, but I think it'll be one of those semester where I enjoy learning and be able to have some fun. I mean, learning should always be fun, and that makes all the hard work and sleepless nights worth it, right? Anyway, 3 finance classes and 1 accounting class. All upper lever classes. Fun. hehe..Maybe it's still early in the semester and the bad hasn't come yet. We'll see, but as for now, I'm here relaxing after all my work is done while my sis is just starting her work.

And I thought Freshmen and Sophomore years should be more relaxing, like how mine was..haha..

New Year and stuff

My first entry for the year 2010..Year 2009 has its ups and downs. Lots of stuff had happened and now, I have a sister here with me, lost a grandma, had a nephew, got a cousin-in-law, increased my GPA, went for interviews, had a road trip, stranded in a blizzard, started my own RSO...etc..anyways, long story short, my 2009 was a roller coaster ride..

So, to begin 2010, it's been fun so far..Last week, almost everyday, I was out hanging out and watching movie with the gang..hehe..anyways, class starts today and the semester looks tougher than last semester. Everything was going smoothly till earlier this afternoon.

I was doing my revision in my room when a guy from Crafton Place Management knocked on my apartment door. So, I opened the door a little to see what he wanted but all he said was "I need to check your toilet" and barged in. I asked him to remove his shoes since I had just cleaned the apartment, but guess what? He just shouted at me "I have a lot of things to do. No time!" and pushed my door wide open and barged in..(Hello? I'm standing there, holding the door?!?) He walked into the toilet, screwed here and there and messed up everything in the toilet! My carpet is dirty! My toilet is a mess! There is no respect or whatsoever for us students staying here in this property. They barge in whenever and however they want to. I talked to the lady in charged of the property but all she said "ya, we can't ask people to remove their shoes. Maybe you should get a carpet runner..." and that maintanence guy just walked out of the office as I talked to the lady, angrily..I mean, if he is as busy as he claims to be, he wouldn't be sitting in the office, RELAXING! But since when it's appropriate for management to barge into someone's apartment and has no manners or so..no need for permission to enter? no need of respect because i'm just a mere student? no need of consideration? I am just so angry and frustrated over this place. There is no safety here..how can this place have good recommendation? I am not going to let this go just like that because it is not the first few times..I'm definitely moving out of here and letting all my friends know how horrible this stupid Crafton Place is!
