Dear Howie:
Wow! You are so busy. For me, everhting was so tense when school started. And when it's Christmas break, I feel worned down and I bummed out. It's gonna be stressful again going back to school. You got sick too, huh? Poor thing. I think I got worse.... eur.. I hate blowing my nose. I used up more than half of the tissue box already. I've been trying to get more sleep as well. ..Haven't got the appetite for the entire week. =( Also not to forget to mention the fever I had for the past 3 days! I bet you're wondering about this quick reply.. I'm only online for a few seconds just to get my emails.
Going back to school in Jan is gonna be fun... *sarcastic* I'm gonna be taking some full-time day courses, part-time evening courses, and a Saturday morning course. Damn, for that Sat. one, the fee is $489 for that one course! That's Java, Object Orient Programming. I course I failed blocks off 3 other courses, that's why I'm taking part-time evening courses to make it up. Sucks, eh? I bet you don't wanna know how much tuition I had to pay in total! Even though I'm not in some courses, I'll still be going to only lectures for the courses I will have to finish eventually. This way, I can get the knowledge and notes for the next time I'm taking those courses. Good idea, huh? =)
Aabout the situation with Arthur, it's not me, nor him. It's his mom that I'm pissed about. At first, I thought she was a cool person. I noticed that she always yells at him. Arthur told me that his parents wants us to break up. His mom is forcing him to break up with me. Okkayyy...... we agreed to be friends... And then later, I heard that his mom wants him to change to another class and make sure we don't end up in the same class and for the p/t night school too. Arthur and I thought this is SO ridiculous!! The next day, I didn't care much about it anymore. But we will still help each other in school and that promise we had is to survive BCIT together.
So, what you gonna be doing on New Year's Eve? Yesterday, Ray invited me to go to a dinner with them, but don't think I'll be going. I'll probably be going to my friend's place and and hang out there.. My friend will be going away on vacation on Jan 5th for 3 months!
Hey, Chinese New Year is on Feb. 5th, right? I might be working at the PNE again this year. But that means I'll have to sacrifice one week of my p/t studies. I preferred to get paid.. heehee..
Hm... you've given me a list of your resolutions, so here's mine's:
* try to finish school within the 3 years
* study a bit more during my breaks
* try to keep in touch with friends once in a while
* start a small business of my own when I get a chance.. doing webdesign, graphics, etc...
ehm.. I guess that's it..
