God I am so jet lagged right now it’s 11.51am in Malaysia and I feel like I haven’t slept the whole night T3T
But it’s getting better la as in yesterday I felt sleepy at around 2pm (2am Msian time) and today I only felt tired at 5pm wtf.
But must blog to update because a lot of things have been happening!
First of all, (and the Parents Ooi will be glad to hear this) I got a job!
(The job is emptying the garbage and recycling bins and cleaning vacuum cleaners and any mess students make wtf.)
Actually Trey was very happy to hear about my job too because he imagined me unable to lift up the garbage bag and pouring rubbish all over myself how degrading wtf.
But whatever money is money!
2nd of all, I have fixed all my classes (hopefully) and I’ll be taking:
Japanese
English – Light Verse & Comic Verse
Independent study – ethnic Chinese in the history of Malaysia
Drawing 101 wtf.
3rd of all, I have resorted to sleeping like a dead person wtf. Why is my sleeping position so stiff! I am sleeping ok when Angela took this picture she started giggling and I dreamt 3 smalls boys were making fun of me wtf.
And damn sad okay I have no comforter and sheets yet so I borrowed bed sheets from Suet and used my United Airlines blanket I stole from the airplane wtf. And used my pig and winter jacket as a pillow like a homeless dead person wtf.
4th of all, today was Convocation!
I know all other universities use the word ‘convocation’ for graduation but I don’t know why Mt Holyoke is the other way around. Convocation for us is the start of the academic year, while Commencement is what we call graduation.
Anyway for Convocation the seniors are supposed to put on our caps and gowns and walk in a procession around campus – some MHC tradition. And the other classes put on their respective class colors and we all go and listen to the college president and other important people give speeches wtf.
Me and Angela:)))))
Me and Chloe. Our class color is blue so everyone came decked in blue. Thank god I got this blue shirt dress wtf.
With our caps and gowns.
Why my teeth look like they’re sticking in all directions!
Me and Beth!
Yen, Angela, me, Mild.
Jeannie and Mild with I forgot-her-name. Damn bad ok I came back after more than a year away and I forgot EVERYONE’S names and every time they called me ‘Audrey!’ I’d be like “Hey ………..how are you?” wtf.
Father Angelo marrying me and Yen wtf.
With Mild and Patricia.
And Mai and Chloe.
And Jeannie and Mild and Chloe wtf.
Then we all trooped to the amphitheatre for the ceremony.
Class of 2009 is green.
Class of 2010 is red.
Class of 2011 is yellow (Suet’s class!) and 2008 is blue.
It sounds boring when I describe what we did, but really it was just amazing. I got to see all my friends that I haven’t seen for a year. And everyone was so happy and spirited and amazed that we’d made it through 3 years and were facing our last.
For a rare moment I felt like I actually did love Mount Holyoke, and was so proud I study here. For all the times I complain about the weather here, and being in the suburbs, and the lack of guys and all the weird people on campus that I can’t click with, everything was negated by how fucking good the education truly is, and how much everyone else loves Moho.
When Angela wasn’t around and I was bored.
