☼ The Dreamer's Diary ☼

I've decided to delay my studies for a year due to some financial issues of setting bills for my school fees. I went to the nearest shopping mall and searched for vacancies there until I came across these shops:



Well it wasn't actually me who came across these myself but apparently it was David who introduced me about working at Starbucks. I never thought about working in such a fancy coffee house before due to my past experience of working in a Sushi bar had given me nightmares about the inflexible long working hours despite the salary rate is as low as 3.50 bucks per hour. He told the that the salary rate for part-timers is much more satisfactory yet employees would have a whole lot of interactions with their valued customers. I took a step forward to face the job interview and the manager told me she would give me a call within a week to inform whether if I'm on the employed list...

The interview was a little bit "fishy" because I'm more used to listen people talking about themselves more than I talk about myself but overall it was okay... So what's the most important for a job interview other than outfits and resume?

Well, I haven't posted anything for 2 months from now... I'm just feeling lazy these days... Hmmmm~~~ You think you see a crazy yet nerdy looking young man? That probably can just be me walking down the street.

My so-called-19th-birthday bash was canceled because of a big tragedy... I didn't expect myself to hit 19 just like that. These months I feel I'm in a great bad luck as too many negative situations happened on me... I feel so lazy to bother anything now...

I can finally upload photos with this kind of bad connection... Hurray! So here's the "thing" my sister has bought me from her so-called-Bali-trip below...

I sat for Psychology paper this evening at 2:30pm. Literally, I can say it was an absolute, complete nightmare that I could not even bear to sit. Previously, I spent like hours revising it but somehow, I didn't manage to store those crappy lecture notes in my brain though. Hence, I wrote crap jokes (which are actually not funny) in the 3^rd section (Essay Question) of the paper and left the room like nobody's business. I hope to survive at upcoming Math paper on next Wednesday... LOL

Tomorrow will be Friday (like, duh!) and I'd meet Esther at school in the afternoon to help her buying a registration form. Besides, I need to go shopping for more books for light reading... I wonder what I should get for this week...

Today is the first day of the second school semester break. Final examinations ended quite roughly with Marketing yesterday because everyone was looking forward to go out for vacations instead of striving hard studying last minute for it... LOL

It was really funny to see everyone scrambling out of the hall to go home just like what the chickens did in the movie "Chicken Run" when the exam ended at 4pm...LOL... I headed to MPH store alone at M.V. after having some tea and snacks with Yoke Fung at 5pm.

I thought I can actually buy a book to kill my time for this semester break once I reach there but the prices of most books are too expensive. Most of the language books there are priced highly are Mandarin, Japanese and Thai. I do understand that the language books for Mandarin and Japanese are being priced at higher cost because they are gaining popularity to be spoken worldwide but THAI???

Here is the title of the book with its prices in Baht and our currency, Dollar below:


"Thai for Intermediate Learners - by Benjawan Poomsan Becker" at only 299 Baht in Thailand but $57 here!!!

I still can't believe my eyes that a book for learning Thai can be that expensive in the country I live. It is not even logical for high pricing a book imported from Thailand as the country is our neighboring country. I think local people would really have to rush into Krungthep as a trip for buying it... LOL

Anyways, I really don't have an exact idea how to spend my holidays. What are your suggestions? What are your plans then?

I've had enough listening to my dad's "lecture" about his dreams of my marriage for about three or four months to me. But I didn't mean to tell him the truth this afternoon that I don't wanna get married (with a woman) and have children while he was driving me and my mom home from my sister's place. I understand that he was so shocked and at the same time, disappointed with my sincere answer to his "dreams". All of us then went into deep silence in the moving vehicle until we all reached home...

I'm so sorry that I accidentally gave him the first hint of confession to my own dad about my sexual orientation. I really didn't mean to do that...

Offered myself to help my dad pasting the poetic banners he has written for upcoming Chinese New Year just now. He was talking to me like usual... I know it's obvious that he was trying to break the ice... But is he trying to accept the fact?

I really love to observe so that I can remember what I see. That’s why I love to learn about different cultures all around the world. From observing what my friends around me, what they’re wearing, what their expressions are like, what they are doing to every single bit of details and flaws on objects, the habit of doing so seems to be addicted.

I observed the table of grades published for the Mid Term Examinations at the school bulletin board during lunch. As I looked at the table, I’ve found that the results of practical assessment in terms of assignments and presentations are so unfair. For me, I only get 8 out of 10 points for Marketing Presentations. Comparing to other students, I only get very average marks as I really tried my very best to complete the works.

I also observed some of my classmates with other students whom I do not know at a school hall for their choir rehearsal today by letting myself sitting alone at a corner of the room. For their choir performance, the song they’re singing is the newly composed school anthem by one of the senior students who is much more talented in music. They were really great at singing during the session but I don’t feel any passion from them for the school itself.

Seeing them gathering together around singing the song somehow makes me feeling even more boundaries in between. This kind of a feeling is just the same as the feelings I had towards my ex-classmates for the last school semester… Am I actually the one who doesn’t belong?

Hung out at nearby McDonalds with my best friend. We bought ourselves fries and chit-chatted for 30 minutes about how suck our life has been at school before going home... How far can I take my own path of life to observe?

I almost forgot to update posts due to busy schedules preparing for final presentations. Lucky me for remembering this blog I have for almost a year... (feeling shame)... Anyways, what's up for today? Well, pardon me for a little habit of complaining...

I had a presentation for Web Page Design this morning that turned into a total mess just exactly like what everyone seemed to assume. You can say it's my fault as well because I'm in the group so we all should take critical responsibilities as a whole. But I really couldn't believe that my laptop that uses AMD processor can create a conflict with a simple LCD projector that only recognizes Intel-based gadgets during the preparation for the presentation. As a result, presentation was being done late... I'm so sorry!

Besides, someone in the group, who is a boy, just read the presentation slides with short sentences provided without giving any elaborations which I had to backup his speeches every after his speech.

This year is just overwhelming enough to celebrate new year. From the first semester of studies until now in 2008. I wonder what 2009 would bring...
