2 strikes out of 3

I'm so exhausted now, look at the time, spent the whole early morning doing laundry.
so let's do this systematically while im still sane.

1st, Valentine's has passed, she got the flowers.
What an akward moment i may say when i met her in the library after class.
I was still trying to find out at that time if she knew it was me(acted like nothing happened), because i didn't sign the card and i had the florist deliver the flowers to her class. Then her roommate came along and teasingly asked me what I did this Valentine's Day, so i was 100% sure by that time that they knew =.='''''.

I do have some regrets for Valentine's, 1st i wish i could have done better, maybe wrote a better card, be more romantic etc etc. The thing i regret the most was not asking her out(OMG!!!!) . I thought she had already made plans for the day. (an outing with friends especially"the" someone she likes), so i didn't want to ruin her nice outing.
I realised too late , that i should have at least tried to ask her, That's something i learnt during Valentine's.

2nd, the day after valentine's i promised my house mates , i would cook them a nice home cooked pasta dinner.I even asked 1 of my fellow Petronas scholar to come and some of my house mate's friend came as well. Little did i know what i was getting myself into. Sad to say the dinner didn't turned out well, because my usual technique of cooking for myself was not applicable when cooking for 10 people (including me)

there was problem after another while i was "cooking" and dinner was delayed for an hour, we served the best of the dishes to the girls 1st. Thanks to my house mates from salvaging the dinner!! and sorry to the girls (guest) who came for what happened, it won't happen again because i'll never cook for more then 2 or 3 people from now on.

so the previous two events were the 2 strikes, while on saturday, it was the 1st session for the reading project i joined. Here's a link: www.read2childen.blogspot.com
we'll soon have a facebook group up and some other things.
goal of the project is to teach or improve the english reading standard of children from the age of 7-12 in Sentul, an area in KL which from i heard isn't a well to do area.

it was a fun time to spend time with kids, knowing each of them have tremendous potential and you are playing a part in teaching them how to be the best they can be in the future.
I won't go into detail here, there'll soon be more post up at the project's blog and at the facebook group. needless to say, i hope we can really make a difference in these children's life.

so that's it for now. its 6 am Sunday, I didn't sleep at all after coming back from the reading project . been doing laundry for the past 4 hours. ( i dun mix colours, afraid they'll stain each other). I'm going to get some rest 1st and later spend the whole day trying to study for the specialist maths test on Monday. It'll be 10% of my internal assessment for my program , which amounts to 5% of my final results.

till next time.
