Sing You Home

Runa's 21st birthday party was awesomely fun!=)

We were almost the last bunch to leave her place. And Runa has such cool dad who is Indian but he can speak Hokkien better than me (actually I don't speak Hokkien, HAHA!)

I am currently working on one of my assignment which is to search for the brain model/theories. Reading the journals of Neuropsychology is dreadfully confusing. Not only I don't understand most of the stuff that is written in the journal but the models the oh-so-ever-intelligent-beings proposed there are just plain confusing instead of mind boggling. I haven't even learn most of the terms being use there. They even have those algorithm equations to explain the model and a person like me who swears off Physics after she got out from high school almost had her eye balls falling off from her eye socket going through them. Not exaggerating. So yeah, it's a rather frustrating research to work on since most of the stuff that I came across confuses me and in return it makes me feel incapable like not doing the thing get over it as soon as possible. But there are stuff that I understand since I've had lesson based on them already but there are still terms that I am not familiar with and am still getting to get myself to get use to those.

I even had Punjabi lesson with one of my Pakistani classmate. She's a Punjabi herself and one of our assignment requires us to teach one of our classmate a skill. Hence, I'll be teaching her how to speak Bahasa Melayu and she'll be teaching me how to speak Punjabi=) Pretty cool eh?

During our tutorial lesson for our Education and Learning class, we were asked to design a computer lab with the materials given by our lecturers. My group and I designed a computer lab for children and the outcome is pretty satisfying.

This week has actually been eventful in terms of the stuff that I've learnt. The upcoming week will be hectic. I can't wait for my brain dissection lesson=) Gonna make brain patty out of the brain that we dissected.

I even managed to get the book by Jodi Picoult this week, Sing You Home. If it's not because of Jyun I'll be walking out from the bookstore feeling disappointed. I even managed to finish reading the book since I stayed up on Friday night to read it. It's an incredibly good read. A must read book for Jodi Picoult's fans. I can't even bring myself to put down the book once I read it. That explains how I managed to finish reading whole book in 2 days. Ellen Degeneres interviewed Jodi Picoult about her latest novel and she said she wanted to make a movie out of it!

There's this part in the book Picoult describe how a lesbian relationship can be like a heterosexual relationship be. I don't wanna spoil it for you readers who is planning to read that book. I am still having a hangover due to that book. The Slap that I managed to finish reading somewhere this week seem to be buried way behind my head right now. But The Slap is another good read for those of you who enjoys reading book that contains a diverse social issue. Again, it's because of Jyun I get to read these books without needing to wait for a couple of months more. *grins*

A good book does make the week more interesting actually^^
