Yay, my kor kor is the best! He sent me a song from the latest OC episode which I've given up on downloading till next month, when the nightmare that is Internet quota is renewed and becomes my best friend again. Until it dies.

Bettie Serveert - Lover, I Don't Have To Love

If you love songs from the OC too, let me know what you think of this one! :) Exchange thoughts, ya? Damn, the title reminds me of Jeff Buckley's 'Lover, You Should've Come Over'.

Because today has been a happy day, as all my days have been so far (YAY!), I would like become an annoying little blogger, complete the memes that have been going around and tag people! I don't care if you've been on a hiatus, you'd better do it (thinks of Random Guy; do this for me please?)!

I tag Trinity (pause A. Idol posts! ^+^), Kitty (because you shouldn't go absent after those few days of blogging!), Averdim (miss you :( and I haven't talked to you since.. forever!), Vincent (do this after the Rojak part 2 :P), Random Guy (please, pretty please with cherries on top?), Pris (the other BLEACH lover!), Kyels (I hope you see this, girl!) and David (because I mentioned you in the Songs Meme, and you can just do that one)! And anyone who owns a blog and reads this! Do this, or else! ;)

SCHOOLS MEME

How many schools did I go to?
Primary and Secondary: SKL. Year 11 and 12: SPLC. So that's two. If you include my kindergarten, it's three. And I'm at UQ now. So.. four?

Was I the studious nerd, or the last minute hero?
I was the studious nerd up till after PMR. Then I became.. well, not hero. I was more like a zero. :) It's only after I came to Australia that I discovered the real meaning of burning the midnight oil.

Was I the class 'taiko' or the teacher's pet?
I'd say a bit of both when I was back at home. And then I became the 'shrug and nod' chick. Mainly because I continued to skip class after I got here. I was a prefect in Malaysia, became a prefect when I got here, but still not a teacher's pet. I think my teachers rather disliked my habit of sleeping in class. :P Though there was my IT Systems class, where I was the defiant student who questioned everything. :) Haha, I don't think the teacher minded though. Hello, he's a Liverpool fan too? Heheh..

What was the biggest rule I broke in school?
Cheating in exams. And getting caught. Lol, surprisingly enough, considering I didn't study for that test, I supplied the answers. The others were mediocre stuff like not completing prefect duties (lol), skipping class without reason. Ponteng lar, in other words. I remember blogging about those good days too.. :P I wonder how my accomplices are.. :)

Three subjects I enjoyed:
In Malaysia, I enjoyed English, BM (mostly) and PE. ;) Well, I aced every English test that I took, lol. I remember topping the class with the last English exam I took in Malaysia too. BM was great because we had an awesome teacher who just naturally commanded respect. PE was.. well, slacking off time. :P

In Australia, I enjoyed English (again), certain Legal Studies classes when we discussed the more interesting issues such as prostitution (shut up) and the criminal offences and IT Systems. Mainstream English was definitely hard, so I was proud to get the occasional A, and IT Systems was interesting because I'm pretty handy with computers and I remember getting full marks for my first Macromedia Fireworks test after only giving it one day's practice. ;) And all those times I did my assignments the night before.. sweet!!

Three teachers that inspired me:
Puan Faezah: my old BM teacher. :) She still amazes me. She used to mark SPM papers, and she probably still does. I remember we were always quiet when she did the teaching, even the guys that often misbehaved. She was so dedicated that even when she was sick, she persisted with the teaching. I believe I got very close to getting an A2 for the last BM paper I took, and that was more than enough for me.

Mr. Lee, my Add Maths/Science tuition teacher: He didn't care that I often fell asleep while he was teaching. Or that his time was up, and I still didn't understand. He'd go over stuff over and over again just to be sure I understand, even if that's not what he's paid to do. I call that dedication!

Ms. Jamieson: The Biology teacher who woke me up, asked me if I wanted to continue sleeping, and when I said yes, allowed me to continue sleeping. Beat that! Okay, so I didn't do well in Biology, but she was inspiring. :) I did study. I did do my assignments.

SONGS MEME

One song… from your early childhood: 'I Just Called To Say I Love You'. It's the family favourite. :)

One song… you are associating with your first big love: Kylie Minogue 'Love At First Sight'. Because he brought it up.

One song… which reminds you of one of your holidays: Green Day 'Time of Your Life', since I just had my graduation before I came home.

One song… you like, but you have got problems confessing to: Hmmph.. pick a Christina Aguilera song that isn't 'Reflection' or 'I Turn To You'. I just don't like that woman.

One song… which accompanied you, while you were lovesick: M2M's 'The Day You Went Away', and a billion others.

One song… you listened to most often in your life: This is hard! Err.. Bon Jovi's 'Always'? Or maybe it isn't. I'm taking a wild guess.

One song… which is your most favoured instrumental: WTF is wrong with this question?? Song, then instrument?? So the confusing.. Err... I like the guitar? :P Ooh, I get it! Sorry, blonde moment. :P I'll go with Bond's Victory!

One song… which represents one of your most favoured bands: 'Iris' - Goo Goo Dolls.

One song… in which you recognize yourself or through which you feel somehow understood: Imogen Heap's Hide and Seek

One song… which reminds you to a certain occasion (and the occasion): Oh, tough one! Hmm.. Because I'm talking to Max now, I'll say Mandy Moore and Jonathan Foreman's Someday We'll Know. :) The occasion was us singing it for Talentime and winning 2nd place. ;)

One song… you like and which belongs to the Hip Hop / Rap genre: This one's not hard, cause I actually do like songs from those genres, but I'll go with Eminem's Stan because I can almost remember every line from the song. :) And Dido's touch was the hottest.

One song… which is the best for you to relax: Chet Baker's 'Tenderly'. Thanks, David. :)

One song… which symbolizes a great time in your life: 'Lean on Me'. The boarding house song. My two years in boarding were great.

One song… which is your most favourite song at the moment: Argh, I like all my songs! Fine. Err... Ricky Martin and Meja's Private Emotion. I do know it's an old song, but it's also beautiful. :)

One song… which you would dedicate to your best friend: Err.. I want to ignore this question because it says best FRIEND. Since this question goes this way, I shall dedicate the oh-so-cliche Vitamin C's Graduation.

One song… where you have got the feeling that no one besides you likes it: Fort Minor's 'Red to Black'

One song… you like because of its lyrics: Imogen Heap's 'Hide and Seek'. Yes, again. :)

I'd better see this on your blogs soon!! :)
