Sometimes I love surprises. Sometimes I don't. Most of the time I love them. Especially if no one ever gave me a clue on it. Ever. (Read: Surprise party, presents, all the good stuff...)
Charlie kept on saying stuff like "I have a surprise for you. Just wait and be prepared." All I could think of was an expensive gift. Something I would wish he would not buy. So I can have the money spent on something else I want. Hehe...
Last time he called and said he has something for me, I kept on asking what kind of surprise. I don't really like the nervousness of thinking what could the surprise possibly be. I hate cluttering my already cluttered head with 'surprise'. And he told me he got me a Hard Rock Cafe sweater. Yay! Now I know what his gift is I don't have to think about it anymore. But I kept on thinking about it anyway. I'd love to see what the sweater looked like. Maybe I could wear it everyday.
Just now he called. And he said something about "Just wait for a surprise from me." What? The not-so-surprise-anymore sweater is not the surprise he told me about?
I asked him again. This time he said just wait and see. And just be prepared for it. And he said don't be surprised if a rombongan come one day. Any day.
Erkk... I really am surprised now. Is that a joke or what? What should I expect? From his tone it doesn't sound like he's 100% serious about it. But who knows? There's 50:50 chance he meant what he said.
I'm not ready for that kind of surprise. Even if he told me 1000 times and 1000 years earlier. So I have this written in my mind with permanent marker: THIS IS JUST A JOKE.
Yup. I'm going to take it as a joke. He often made me feel confused and curious. And enjoy every moment of it. He loves messing with my head, making me scratch my head and mess my already messy hair.
Whatever thing he's planning for the 'surprise' I'm living with this mantra right now: HE IS JOKING. What he told me is not real. He'll laugh at me when he saw me panicking at the thought of him meeting my parents for something THAT serious.
Whatever.
So I'm focusing my energy on the sweater he bought me. Can't wait for that one.

Finally It's Over
The whole hectic weeks of FYP, thesis and stuff is finally over. I just need a few more days to complete the little things and THEN I'm off from this whole thing. Makes me consider my options of furthering my studies. I don't think I want to go through the hassles all over again. Then again I found some sample thesis from a university and everything looks not as complicated as ours. Makes me wonder if things are actually a lot simpler than what the Faculty wants it to be.
I printed my thesis (3 copies of it) just to realise that some formatting error happened. I was tired with the whole editing things (I spent some days scrolling up and down the text just to make sure everything is OK and STILL, the final, printed version came up with errors that left me in horror). I also ran out of time so whatever will be will be. Nobody is going to read that junk anyway.
I was required to write a report on my project (after the whole thesis thingy is over) but my head is still cluttered as I am typing this. I was supposed to hand it over together with some other stuff today. Heck. How am I supposed to submit something I haven't even write?
I searched for some sample reports yesterday. Was hoping to find something that can help me understand what I need to write. Summarizing stuff is my weakness since years ago in school. I always failed in summarizing texts or graphs or whatever stuff that was needed to be summarized. And now I have to summarize my thesis.
Anyway, I found this cool stuff. SCIgen - An Automatic CS Paper Generator. A totally cool stuff. It will amuse you with all the stuff you don't understand. Complete with a long list of references and figures and graphs too. And you haven't come to the best part yet. Some papers generated by SCIgen were accepted as some real work. How cool is that? Too bad I found the link late. That thing is dated years ago. But still, it amuses me.
And after hours (it's almost sunrise of the new day) I still haven't got a clue on what to write for the report. Hmm...
