MTD PROJECT FINALLY OVER!
it was like a load taken off my back. now you throw me knives and darts, i can like handle them already. that's how formidable i am feeling right now.

jamie likes my laptop briefcase! :)

ok presentation was quite screwed.

LATENESS
coz vtay came late. i already instructed everyone to come in arrive at 830. 9 was when Mr Omar would lock the door. and she came at 915.

NICHOLAS
before class starts, Nicholas was being Nicholas. selfish retard.
he saw that my laptop was plugged into the power source and i was looking at my computer. but without informing me, he took out my plug, and my computer just crashed like that before my eyes.
i was [insert the swearest swear adjective] infuriated and shouted at him. instead he gave me that face like i was a mad unreasonable bitch.
my documents could have been gone, excuse me! my laptop has got no battery, and even then, it is only basic etiquette to ask before you shut down people's computer like that!
so then afterwards i switched off his switch on purpose before his eyes, and he scolded me, "FUCK YOU etc, i already tolerate you for a long time and not said anything to you. i already said sorry to you already.."
well, too bad! i never heard you say sorry. and so does the witnesses, pris and rest. there was NO SORRY.
i was so angry i wanted to smash his laptop or cut his wires. what would you do if you were me!!!!

ASSIGNMENT: THE REAL SHORTCOMINGS
ok, presentation.. it was quite awkward coz the members were not able to see the powerpoint before the whole thing. but then again, i had too much work to accomplish and their bedtimes would not permit them to be familiarised with the slides. and then, when they had time to go through the slides, chatting was top of the agenda list, so then again, im just going on and on and being complain-queen.
i only slept 2 hours and i did almost everything in the assignment and ended up scolded by people's mother and feeling really slave-like.
i did the editing of all the work they gave me, and i couldnt make use of stella's and pris's work coz they were not what i wanted for the project!! let's say if someone were to give you work that i felt immature, full of conversational tone, full of grammatical mistakes, weird sentence structuring, few relevant points---that it seems so difficult to edit---would you redo the entire thing yourself (just so you wont fail the assignment) or would you put them in (just coz to prove they did something and that in itself is commendable)? i am so bossy and act-smart i cant bear it! but i dont want to!
and i know how it feels having your masterpieces being wrecked or not used. i experienced that before but there is no words i can say and nothing i can do but hoped that you can let it slide. :(
i wish to post their contributions so you can see if i am right but that would be alittle lame. :(

STELLA MOTHER
what happened on satuday night in point form
received her work at 10
SMS-ed her to make some edits at 11+
stella called with her mobile
i offered to call back to save costs
chatted about project
mother came home
snatched phone from stella
scolded me
no parental upbringing
distrubed their family
2 years older than stella then i bullied her
want to call SMa to complain about me
want to call my parents
i tried to put my share of words
"excuse me, wo..."
"you dont come and excuse me hor..!
when elder talking, you dont retort"
etc then
HUNG UP ON ME

WIN.

i called back. hang up
just to gek her back for hanging up on me.
then i called and stella said hello
then i thought she was gone so i could tell her to discuss what happened?!
then her mother snatch the phone
"you dont be rude and hang up my phone cal---
i hanged up on her.
i called back
and then stella said hello and passed the phone to her mother
n then i had to tolerate through another repeated scolding
then i said, "you hang up on me first.. i am offended by you saying that i do not have upbringing etc"
but it all fell on deaf (must as well be dead) ears.

so i smsed, typed cruciatingly in chinese:
"you woke my whole family up, happy now? even though im older than your daughter by 2 years, i am not as childish and unreasonable as you, you the big elder. SMa will not do anything to me, go complain as you wished, throw your face only. you think i like calling your daughter up? i do not wish to have anything to do with you. my parents brought me up with manners, and not like you, nasty, bad-tempered.my house number is xxx.i'm game with all your antics."

second sms coz i was really shaking mad,
"to put things straight: 1,i told stella that since she's ill, she can talk tomorrow. 2,she says that we can continue talking. 3,i was not informed that you could not tolerate late night discussing about a project that is due on monday. 4, if i had known, i would have discussed it the next day. yet you think you're old, so you have brains. still dare to hang up on me. you behaviour will stumble stella, is it worth it? i pity stella for having a fierce, unreasonable mother. what a pity"

THEN she win, she called my house. at 4 am! talk about disturbing people.
i picked up the phone, which was private number. coward.
(sweet voice) hi, is this janet's mother??
rolled eyeball. she can be nice-sounding to people's mother but not to people's mother's daughters.
ok, i knocked my mother's door loudly, then my mother, half awakened and bewildered, took up the call.
evil woman: 1000 words
my mum: um
evil woman: another 1000 words
my mum: oh
evil woman: 1000 words "harrass me... call police etc..."
my mum: ah
evil woman: 894 words---
my mum: ---(trying hard to interrupt) i need to ask my daughter about what happened, i need to hear both sides of story first before i can......
evil woman: 1106 words
my mum: ok i will talk to her
evil woman: 1000 words

anyway it was quite ugh to see my mother so tame. wished she could be more feisty and scold her back. like the way she can fight my father in quarrels and how she always nag at me. -_-

then my mother scolded me for smsing people late at night. what the... 11pm sms like offence. i mean it's not a blardy phone call. one can switch off the phone! i felt so pissed. :(

my father woke up and told me to ask the person to "go and die la..." (father's favourite quote).
throughout the whole thing, my sister wanted the phone so that she can scold the evil woman back for me...! HAHA! like some ah lian like that, "come, pass me the phone...i help you scold back"
AWWWWWWWW!!!

at this point of writing, i have actually come to appreciate my mother's tact. :) my mother is sooo cool can. sigh.

STELLA'S SAY
today i went to ask her about her mother coz i wasnt too sure if i was too much.
she said she was used to her mother's abuse since young. she had wanted to run away from home a few times already but have resigned to the fact that she cant, and to be obedient to her mother. and then, THAT DAY SHE WAS MADE TO KNEEL BEFORE SOME CATHOLIC THING TILL 6AM.
she said it's ok she's used to it. her entire famiy is like that etc.
she said her sister think i shouldnt act that way. especially after like getting to know of her mother's character in the first few phone minutes, that i should have gave up and not send those smses.
so pissed with the sister i want to unsubscribe from her livejournal shop mailing list.
then i wanted to find whether she (stella) still wanted to work with me in the next project--whether her mother allow--
stella: no. she dont allow.

i was kinda sad yet happy! it's like damm sad that i could ever be rejected that way. yet i was glad that in future i will not be traumatised over doing the project. i think as much as i was traumatised, the other 3 group members also had a equally miserable time dealing with me. different style of working!
anyway now im just relieved that there is the assureance it wont happen again. :)
yeah and if stella also constructed the whole thing so that all these should happen, im also perfectly fine with it.

but poor stella.
her mother's a strong catholic, makes her hate catholism. but she has to go even though she thinks christianity is better.

OK end of rant. the end.
