Hello Again!

Crazy, crazy, crazy schedule these past few weeks.

Can't remember the last time I went this long without blogging.

Was positively itching to write a post on the recent general elections that went down early this month but simply didn't get the time thanks to our exams being postponed again and again.

See, I was never into politics. Never have been and thought I never would be.

Until I sat in front of my laptop from seven in the evening right up to two in the morning following whatever news feeds, websites, videos and news channels I could find online on the fifth of May.

And to see how they lied and cheated their way to victory was disgusting.

Earth Hour in the middle of counting votes? Are you f***ing kidding me -.-

Phantom votes. Fraud.

And to actually have the cheek to say that everything was fair and transparent?

Bloody hell.

We were warned about a mass media blackout and true enough that's what actually happened. 

So many different websites giving different information as to what was going on, national news stations failing to provide proper updates; how many seats the National Front had taken and how many seats the opposition had taken. None of the sites had information that tallied. None at all. How frustrating it was to follow. Facebook newsfeed was flooded with posts, pictures, statuses about rants and raves about how dissatisfied, how angry, how disappointed people were with the way things were done. 

I mean seriously. Do they think we're that stupid, that oblivious to actual facts?

At around nine o'clock, Anwar announced on Twitter that the opposition had won. I was following all his tweets, together with Lim Kit Siang, Rafizi Ramli, Lim Guan Eng and the rest of the lot.

Everyone was changing their profile pictures to black in protest of what was happening. 

Waiting to find out what happens when all this is taken to court. I see tweets by Rafizi, Anwar and Nurul Izzah every day updating us on what's happening. 

Anwar's speech in Kelana Jaya was fantastic. Was following it on Youtube and for the first time ever, I actually had tears in my eyes when I heard the crowd sing our national anthem. How united everyone was. How united everyone has become!

I really hope there is change for the better by the end of the month. Another five years with the current cabinet and who knows what the country would come to x_x

Politics aside.

Last Saturday was quite a blast.

Our class organized an entire day of games, events and activities for all the other students on campus.

We had a barbeque at night and a ghost house set up from scratch. It was fantastic. All those expressions on their faces when they got frightened were epic!

I played a zombie nurse, together with two other classmates and we managed to scare the crap out of everyone who came into our room.

Pretty convincing, no?

There was a witch and a wizard, a possessed girl and a priest, a vampire, a little girl crying, a monster, the Jackal, and the Crept Keeper. Even the lecturers got really scared :P

Exams are over for the moment so we're quite free this week. 

Finally! After weeks of hardly any sleep. We were all like the walking dead by the time Saturday night rolled round.

Looking forward to heading back home really soon. Will be in the new house already. Mom and dad have been busy moving and everything's set up.

Everything else has been simply amazing :)

Have a good week, guys!

More soon.

:D
