Ants from hell!

Week 7...

If you didn't know, i have joined 4 societies : Nottingham Buddhist Society, Chemical Engineering Student Society, Basketball Club (who won't?!), and Nature Club

Am quite free most of the time so i decided to be a committee member in most of the clubs, wishing it'll fill up my free time and it's great for my CV next time right...

Been coming back every weekend, still alive although i don't have a laptop there... WHO NEEDS EM? >:(
food over there is okay (i particularly enjoy the oriental food where they sell omelet + "lice" + "fry" + some vege at the side), price normal...

Sports facilities also okay, the only facility i frequently use is the basketball court, haven't been to the gym (i see most of the weights are missing and usually i'll be playing basketball than lifting weights in the evening...), swimming pool (shy la : þ ), football court, squash court, tennis court... been to the badminton court perhaps twice...

As you can see the title of my post... plenty of ants and bugs in my hostel (especially before it's going to rain, mad i tell you...)
I usually have bread for breakfast right, say i have a pack of potato buns... i'd eat half the pack and the rest i'd store the rest in the cupboard... next thing you know, whole thing covered with ants...
so i tried Wai Hong's idea of putting the bread or whatever item on top of a bowl of water... the ants can swim...
so this time i put my bread in the white long transparent plastic bag you usually get at the supermarket, tied a dead knot... next thing you know, the ants bit through the plastic and were enjoying themselves...
imma get myself a container next time... pfftt

Random fact: ants DO NOT sleep...

ant power! RAWR! that's the bugs im talking about... and the ants gnawing away...

Musicality

I always wondered that the musicals here in the UK would be somewhat different from the ones I attended back in Malaysia. Hence, I made sure I attended at least one musical in London. Musicality is a musical society here at University of Nottingham. They are made up of many students from different courses and background and boy are they talented! I attended their annual musical production: Jekyll and Hyde The Musical at the Nottingham Arts Theatre which was located in the city. Their performance was marvellous. Although I kind of forgotten the story but I never once felt bored during the performance. Like every musical, there was a live orchestra below the stage and there were equally splendid. The bed making part of the backdrop whereby Dr.Jekyll would be lying on it at the beginning of the scene The orchestra ensemble taking a break So many people were involved in the musical. Directors, producers, designers, bac...

Them Housemates

Image
(10/01/12) I feel so weak and inferior around them. I am the last person they would ask if they didn't know how to solve a question. I always feel like i'm not part of the discussion. It's as if i'm left behind, so much further away from them. I am sitting around them, yet they prefer to ask the other housemate sitting upstairs I don't know why but somehow i feel pissed They just ignore me... I am not worried if they see this, they don't even know i have a blog I feel... sad, frustrated, hopeless sometimes i feel as if i am in the wrong course, taking the wrong path of life, they make me feel... bad still, i am grateful to have them as housemates and coursemates. i can always refer to them whenever i didn't know how to answer a question. or i could just borrow their solution and refer to it. or i could ask them to teach me. when exams season are here, there is this feeling of desperation lingering in the air. what is the answer to this que...

Attachments

Total attachments : 2 doc. Click to download NO not those kind of attachments in emails. I hate it. It makes you keep thinking of something(maybe someone?) you have just feeled, watched, smelled or heard. An example, your over-priced handphone that enables you to do almost everything with it, can you leave it aside for one day? Not replying any calls or messages for one whole day? CAN YOU? Or, not checking people statuses and updates on Twitter(i don't tweet) or FACEBOOK! CAN YOU? In the Buddhist context, attachments causes suffering. We keep thinking about that something and we cannot focus on the things we are currently doing, our mind is not at peace, we are in SAMSARA (suffering). For me, i don't know is it only me or what but after reading a book i always have this feeling of attachment. I don't want the story to end, I feel a sense of sadness and regret. I hate this feeling. After watching movies(especially romance), i don't want it to end, i want it t...
