Christmas-ed

So… time flies… it’s boxing day already…

Nothing much really exciting and interesting during this Christmas here… or can be said dull… 25 Dec is not even a public holiday in Russia, so we had to go for class also… Fortunately that Tuesday, my class just had an hour and half lecture and that’s all…

The most significant and joyful part of this Christmas for me must be our mini countdown celebration in hostel which was organized by our dear Mr. Ivan Khoo… Everyone who were invited need to prepare a small present for gift exchange… The gift exchange game's method was quite interesting too…which actually ended up rescuing me from getting a ‘plain & lousy’ gift but a nice cup… hehe ^.^

Anyway, well done to Ivan who successfully organized such event… I was actually surprised when I first stepped into the hall of that floor when I saw quite a number of people were joining…

All who attended


Finally, wishing my family, relatives, friends or just passer-by of my blog from any part of the world where you are living now, enjoy this special Christmas and New Year celebration time… Believe that joys and happiness are always in the end…


p/s: Nothing went wrong to our Earth, so it’s my another white Christmas this time…



~ MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR~

Recently...

Huh… I have to admit my blog is damn boring… haha…
But here I am again… Will do some update bout recent life…

This weekend was a great one again… Largely due to yesterday (Saturday) was a holiday here so I no need to attend the half-day class on that day… Holiday because there was no water supply in all university buildings… No water supply means heaters in the room can’t function, and if the class goes on, we need to study in freezing cold condition…

It’s clear that winter has come and December is always the official first month of winter… But above is just one of the very few advantages of winter… Life in winter is really a torturing one… 3 months of hard time to go…

Due to holiday on Saturday, on Friday night, my roommate and I decided to do a ‘room-warming’ session by inviting all 8 of Malaysian Chinese 2nd year guys to cook and have a dinner in our room… The dinner session turned out wonderfully… The food and drinks were great; chit-chatting was fun too… Our badge has 8 Chinese guys only, a number which is much fewer if compare to other badges, but 8 of us are good friends and always have fun together… I’m truly grateful bout this… Btw, Cooking skills of everyone keep on improving and somehow have reached near-to-fantastic level already… haha…

Deepavali celebration which took place about 3 weeks ago had been a major topic for a while… The celebration actually was very good, with both food and performance were among the best of 4 celebrations that I had experience since first year here… But the next day, about 90% of Malaysian students here suffered at least some minor diarrhea…There must be problem in preparation of food... That day I went to toilet for 2-3 times which was considered a minor one ady ( coz I didn’t eat much…:) ) That case was a hot topic and heard that university not allow Malaysian students to do such celebration again… Means that next festival, CNY we can’t celebrate d la… Good that we all Chinese no need work hard to cook and prepare for the celebration, but festivals time here must be more boring if all these celebrations are really banned…

Finally… Christmas and New Year are coming soon… On other way it means that final exams are coming soon too… Then on another positive way it means that winter sem break holidays are coming soon also… This time my badge has about 2 weeks of holidays and as usual, a lot students are planning to travel abroad… So far I not yet finalize where I will go, but on top of the list is going to a theatre, it’s not a normal theatre, but it’s the ‘Theatre of Dream’. I will try to make it lah but planning a trip especially to Europe is really not an easy one…

After all, need to focus on studies first…
