RuN Down.. loW enErGy..
Ok.. its Friday.. barely one day of my recovery of this super long and hard week.. one day is enough to recuperate and obtain my usual sleeping and eating habits right?? SO HOW COME I STILL FEEL LIKE IVE BEEN HIT BY A BUS???
Today I woke up.. supposed to meet up with Jen to catch up with her. But1!! My housemate's driving instructor rocked up.. he parked infront of the driveway.. and MY HOUSEMATE WAS STILL SLEEPING.. so i couldnt get the car out... ah well.. ill catch up with Jen tmr..
Then after that dilemma i just did abit of my tutorial.. then drove to Uni for my tut and lecture.. afterwhich i went to work at Rainforest.. initially i planned to go to the gym outlet at Modbury, but I noticed the one at Burnside had Body Attack at 7pm.. as compared to Body Pump over there. So i went to the gym at Burnside after and went grocery shopping then went home..
I think i grocery shop too much. Walao.. haven;t finished still buy.. but I love grocery shopping.. here are my reasons..
1) Grocery shopping is SOoo much fun.. u get to choose what kind of food you want.. and how you want to cook it.. Don't you get that kind of rush when you go to Coles / Woolies.. or in your case.. NTUC.. u can actually choose!!! the cheaper or the more expensive but nicer?? Homebrand or good brand? haha
2) Grocery shopping helps keep you off clothes shopping, and actually saves you money.. when you grocery shop.. sooner or later (if you are me) you will EAT the food (unless it goes mouldy.. and perishable goods like pumpkins and carrots etc are relatively cheap). - (Yes i cleaned out a little bit of the fridge today)
3) This is a reinforcement of my earlier 2nd point. After you spend like.. 30 - 40 bucks on food.. you go.. IYOH.. spend so much already!! Better STOP spending.. haha it's true!! don't believe me?? well go try it out!! Still don't believe me?? well wadeva..
Ok .. haha NOW.. where was i?? oh yes~! I baked pumpkin dices with honey, Carrots and mushrooms on the baking tray.. its not that hard.. just arrange the cut up pumpkins, carrots and the mushrooms on the baking tray. Then, squirt honey on everything. Then, put into oven. 10 minutes later, check.. if its not cooked.. go away and come back 10 minutes later.. If still not cooked, repeat the following step and do so until it is cooked. Not bad uh.. mmm so nice some more..
See yous later.

Today I have my Financial Economics Mid Term Test... stressing out.. but it SHOULD be ok.. i was meant to wake up at 4am to study, then go to the gym for BOdy COmbat at 6 - 7.. then come home and study till 2pm.. BUT i woke up at 8am instead,.. Cannot make it.. damnit.. so i just went to the gym for Step Basic and now Im home, going to start studying... walao the stupid instructor for step basic.. Has she never ever heard of BREAKS?? yep - breaks - the ones that give you time to drink water and catch your breath.. Well.. apparently she has never heard of them.. We did a full 30 minutes workout WITHOUT ANY breaks in between.. Basket!!!.. The workout itself wasn't that hard.. it was just tiring... And.. halfway through she made a mistake.. SO WE HAD TO DO IT AGAIN!!! And.. she is a LIAR. Phrases like "5 minutes more ONLY!!!".. " I SWEAR.. its the LAST TIME".. "yea.. push it for the LAST TIME".. were constantly heard through out the WHOLE Thing..get the picture?? talk about false hope.. but it was a good workout through and through.

ARGhh.. Frustration..
Why is it that I can't simply seem to concentrate and do work?? huh?? ok. I'm feeling tired as well.. yesterday's sleepover WAS a sleepover. haha. Normally i don't fall asleep until 3am plus.. but i swear my i fell asleep when my head touched the pillow.. I think it was about 1am plus.. slept till about 8am.. took 1/2 hour to crawl out of my sleeping bag and into my gym clothes.. then headed off to the gym.. 1 hour Body Attack.. couldn't tahan anymore.. went home. Washed the dishes and my clothes.. and then went to Video Ezy with Mel. Came home, cooked lunch and then settled down to do work.. till now. MAn... how the hell do i concentrate.. So hard. This is probably one of the most unproductive work sessions i have been to.. I have to GET back into my studying sessions.. I am going to have another one tonight. After I come back from Aaron's place. Hopefully I'll manage to get my work done in time for tomorrow's test.... ARGGHH...

Sunday... GreAt WeathEr..
oday was Sunday.. Mel woke me up at 7.30am to move my car.. after the previous night (sleeping at 2.30am plus - I think can't remember - everything is still a blur from last night, and my friggin printer still does NOT WORK... So today Josh haS helped me download the printer drives. Hopefully that will work if not I really do not know what to do.. and I am sick and tired of being indebted to his family's printer.. I know how Josh feels everytime I print something out.. its like.. i know he is thinking to himself.. "ok that sheet was worth 50 cents for the ink etc etc..".. though he is nice enough not to say anything out loud I can see it in his eyes..
So HOPEFULLY my OWN printer will work.
Anyway I got side tracked. After moving my car I brushed my teeth and got back into bed ( I didn't have to wake up till 8.00 ok!!). Halfway through falling alsleep, suddenly remembered that I have to call Janine and Jane to tell them to bring their books to do the bible study..Crap. SO, i reached for the phone in bed and did it. 15 minutes later... (about 8.20am), finally dragged myself out of bed. Had to spend 3 minutes just sitting there and motivating myself to get moving and go to church. Finally, left the house at 8.45am for chuch. Church service was alright. Then had the bible study with jane and janine.. and now i HAVE to do 2 of the SAME kind of bible studies.. with Jen and Belinda.. not that I'm complaining.. I really wanna catch up with them :)
Then, at about 11.30am, after the bible study i rushed to the gym to keep my appointment with the personal trainer. Ok i know you are thinking.. PERSONAL TRAINER??? but ok let me explain. When I joined up with the gym, part of the package was 2 complimentary personal trainer sessions. The first one I already had - he taught me how to use the gym equipment, and set up a gym CARDIO routine for me to follow. The second session is for gym WEIGHTS. Today the personal trainer took me through most of the gym equipment for weight hand, tummy and back training.. it felt good that i was working out.. but now im starting to feel quite tired.
Tonight It's Joy's sleepover cum going away party.. You guessed it!!! I'm sleeping over at her place. I'm gonna fully die tomorrow, even though its a public holiday. The whole of next week a.k.a. the beginning of Sem1 Term 2 Uni, I have 3 tests to do, Catching up with my girls to do, Gym work (and new cardio and weights routine, a WHOLE CHUNK of studying to do..... its gonna be a busy week, but its just the way i like it.. busy. Active. Respon... ok going abit too far there.. See you guys.. going to Paradise now with Karen.

YAY InterNEt!!
My Internet is FINally installed~~!!!!! YAY!!
Hallo. It's 1.29am now and im still up... in the background, Mrs Doubtfire is playing and I am still waiting for my printer download drivers to finish downloading AND START WORKING.. I also don't even know if this is the right thing to do.. there is a tonne of stuff i have to print out.. stressing.. next week i have 3 tests.. on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday respectively... I think I can honestly say I am alright for 2 of the subjects.. but the last one is a killer.. that's out to GET ME.... (ok 35% downloaded)... still got 65% more to go..HAI..
ok this is sorta an update about last night as well as all of today..
Last night I had a bad dream.. woke up sweating at about 3am.. Mel was like.. OY woman u have a fever is it?? then she felt my forehead and then helped me switched on the aircon.. the dream was that the rapture had taken place, and I was left behind.. with no one there... like NO ONE IM CLOSE TO.... Josh, My parents, my grandparents... Jamie, Rachel, Amanda, Youxin.. EVERYONE had disappeared and I was the only one left behind.. forgotten.. OR it could be that i sorta fell asleep after watching THE FORGOTTEN... in any case, the dream was scary enough to make me wake up LATE. For the Gym. So i rocked up at 10.10am to the gym.. couldn't attend Body Attack or Body Pump.. so I just stayed along for the next class (Body Jam), and I did my own gym time. (15 minutes on the treadmill, 8 minutes on the bike and 5 pushups in 45 minutes)... then i went home.. washed my car, and WAXED my eckoh OK.
I, Deborah Koh, actually stood there in the hot sun getting a tan, and WASHING, WAXING and VACUMMING my car for 2 hours (12 - 2 pm). Pls loh.. then i cleaned my room, washed my clothes and washed the dishes. WAH. Ok the main point was to achieve a clean and tidy environment where upon i can study effectively. I HATE studying in a messy, untidy place.. i LOATHE it, funnily enough. SO now I have a good environment to study. YAY. I can't believe i did THHAAAT much work the whole afternoon OK. dun play play arh. Josh came over to pick me up cos we had a 21st surprise party to go to. Then came home and went to Josh's place to watch some DVDS..

I think im losing my mind..
I think I'm losing my mind... walao.. 80 - 73 percentage points = 6 percentage points right?? Well it just took me about 5 minutes to figure it out.. on a calculator summore!! OK Background on this: I WAS studying just then.. looking at a graph of "Male Participation Rates, by Race" (From the US).. the graph said that there was 80% participation rate for the white male, and 73% participation rates for the African-American Male, which brings the total to a difference of 7 percentage points difference.. should be quite easy to figure out right?? but NO!. damn it. I had to use a calculator... anyway how did i get myself into this state?? ok..
Alot can happen in about 3 hours.. I woke up early today to study labor economics.. so i went to download the material off the labor economics website (www.contemporarylabor.com). Then, i find out to my utter disgust and dismay that my lecturer had blocked off EVERYTHING on the website.. so i can't download the powerpoint slides.. blardy hell. So i called my parents in singapore to download the slides, and then i have been studying Labor Economics ever since.
This holiday is my first "Working Holiday".. this is the first time that I have worked full time (about 35 - 40) hours a week. And I love my job there and my boss!! How cool's that?? haha anyway, yeah this past week is just working (from about 12pm -6.30pm), then going to the gym (7 - 8.30pm), and then home for dinner, and then slacking off (maybe doing some work). So yeah.. that's the past update of my life for these past two weeks.. haha thanks to my dear sister Samantha who wanted my update.,.. so due to popular demand.. HERE IT IS!! OK
I have to get ready to go to work about now...
See yas dudes..

ITs been AGES since Ive blogged.
Well.. hello.. sorry i haven't been putting up any posts for the past two weeks.. this is due mainly to two reasons.. one being that I got a new computer and the internet has not been set up yet and the other is due to my busyness (or should I just come right out and say "Lazyness").
Well.. last night after the Leaders Meeting, I had a talk to Marcus, and straightened afew things out. But I can't promise anything, and I seriously do not care what people think. :) The leaders meeting was good btw.. and RIANA'S BACK!! WHOO!! ok.
My holidays start next week. Yay!! haha ok i think ive got nothing else to say.
