I have found myself, yet again, in another famine. It's difficult. Living without technological advances.

I dearly miss the internet.

I'm now writing this on Wordpad. I'm so bored, there's nothing I feel like doing, but going online. I should use this time to study while I can, actually, but you know me, I'm too lazy to count numbers and read about horror.

I woke up early this morning to play tennis with mum, down at the Bukit Kiara Club. It seems that my time spent at the gym worked off great. My backhand has improved by far and so has my endurance. I'm full of content with these results.

Frankly, I miss Sydney. I miss the yetpet crew and I miss Fitness First. The gym at our apartment isn't very good. I don't like the cardio machine. They're all too big! And there's not enough machines! Boy am I fussy.


Well, that's one item crossed off my list of things to do in KL. I met up with James Chang on Sunday afternoon, with Shaza and mum. I kind of pity him. He was there, trying to endure everything Shaz and I did. We kept talking about our past, AISM and our homies. He was there. Sitting, there. Just listening. More, I made such a bad impression when coming to BSC. I took too long. Whoops.

I figured that if I'm going to survive through this internet famine, I should convert myself into a gamer again. I recently installed Star Wars Republic Commando. It's quite a good game, but I really don't like the targeting system on weapons. I mean, you point at a Geonosian warrior, shoot - but most of the time, it doesn't get hit. This annoys me so much. Maybe I should get HALO for the PC. I'm heavily considering Warcraft.

I was wondering about my Year 12, which is in less than 2 years now. Year 12 and uni. What will I do after Year 12? I keep wondering whether from the subjects I will be doing, and from the looks of how well I do things, will I ever get into the Uni course that I want? I've put a star beside Psychology, which requires a UAI (University Admission Index) of 95-97 in most Universities that I've pin-pointed (University of New South Wales, University of Sydney, Macquarie). I figured, that if you require a UAI of 99.9 for Law and Medicine, how hard would it be to get 95?

This has given me doubts about whether I can achieve such a high UAI in Year 12. Considering the subjects I will do in Year 11 and 12, I don't think I'll get a UAI of more than 90. I'm doing too many down-scaled subjects (Subjects that aren't important, therefore don't scale up). I'm most worried about Design & Technology. Apparently, you need to be best of the best to get good marks. Well, I'm not best of the best. So, I'm pretty much screwed for.

Maybe, I'll just stick with journalism, or maybe take up advertising. Something in the Media industry. I think I'm more suited for those things, and not the business side of things. I talked to mum and one of the tennis coaches about this, over breakfast after tennis this morning. Why not journalism? It'll take me all around the world. I'll also be able to use photography as a handy skill. I can become a photojournalist in the travel industry. By my early or mid 30s, I would've travelled the world! Oh what a dream that is.

I'll consider it. I'll really consider it.

For now, I lie in bed.
Cheers.
