Lets talk about stress. As an undergraduate student, of course I am stress with assignments, presentations, tests and group work, add with upcoming examination within a month. Not to forget my personal things happening. I have more than one role as most of you does, as mother to my cats, best friend to my mom, sister to my siblings, of course girlfriend to my guy. Which, to balance everything. I…

I would say it is not a good start of the month. The fact that one, Rest In Peace to my phone screen for the second time, two I am still afraid of Accounting class in which I am not sure how to do my homework, and third – there is no third so moving on.

Feb 3

I decided to buy a drinking fountain for my kids, as my boyfriend suggested that it is good for the cats. And so I did, green is not my color but I don’t have any other choice. Box! of course, can you blame this cutie? Also today I received a package from Yuna, one of my favourite Online Shop where I bought most of my books, headphones and as for what I ordered, BOTTLES! Yo I need motivation to drink more water, THUS, new bottle it is. I showed Yuna’s Instagram to my mother, as you can see here. She bought two bottles as well.

Feb 4

Discovery Year Talk in the afternoon. Yikes, in which I am so not ready for this. Not for the fact that my CGPA makes me crei, but also you need the money to survive outside man. I ain’t got no money for that, I mean you have to buy food, pay your rent, how about transportation! BUT I really really want to go to Japan. It’s been years I have been wanting to go there. Not a chance. I would most likely to “GO LOCAL”, should be fine.

To the month where I need to find groups for two modules, actually I need 3 groups by the end of this week. Randomly enter this group for Entrepreneurship, seems okay.

Feb 8

E.Business class early in the morning, straight up 3 hours combination of lecture and tutorial, with the war between blizzard and hooman, which shall survive?! Obviously hooman but the class is freezing me to death. i am still alive, you get the point, its really cold.

Sweater + Jacket + Bonus Boyfriend’s jacket = still not enough

Had meeting around 11 with Marketing Management Group until noon. Went to meet my boyfriend and then BAM. わたしの こころ! (my heart!) sweet as ever, if he’s a cat i would 100% squish him too fluffy I’m gonna die mode! He bought me a flower! #PrayForYumie’sHeart and so we went to his favourite korean restaurant and my current favourite Yugo!

I don’t have class on Saturday, only if I have meetings or something. As for today, Entrepreneurship meeting. I have to say, I really do like this group. Don’t want to jinx it

but at the end of the meeting, we had feedback session. pretty good and that’s a first. Afterwards had lunch with my boyfriend. I have never been here before but the food is so good! By good I mean real good. The right sauce with that amount of cheese, a bit of pepper and ooooh damn salmon! I would rate the food as 9/10, really like the atmosphere as well. At night, I asked my mom if I could go to BPMFass’s event called Lights out. and here we are! we didn’t stay that long, people were singing, taking videos and pictures. Also I get to meet my friend from my secondary school!

As I mentioned before, I had Entrepreneurship meeting with my group, I was in charge of making a website for our group project. Of course I really do like to edit things, I mean I am into blog anything related COME HERE! Got feedbacks from my groupmate, that they really like it!

Feb 15

Going to! So as always, E.business’s  tutorial we will be having 4 presenter regarding any topic related to the module. As for today, one of my classmate presented regarding Instagram, to the point she told us that she does have an online shop as well, one of the services are instax film print. boi you don’t know how fast I typed in her instagram username and click that follow button! I texted her right in the afternoon, and asked her about the film.

Dear god, I finally found my instax film supplies, bless her.

Feb 16

Islamic presentation, Thank god that my group mate is mainly the ones I know from my previous group as well. That was a year ago. Skip that part for a while. I had Accounting tutorial which I do not know that we have homework, but the good thing is, our lecturer did not ask us one by one for the answer, the bad thing is, I feel really bad for not doing my homework.  After class, I went to CLT to meet my boyfriend. I was supposed to be a surprise that I’m wearing Baju Kurong today. I mean it’s been awhile he haven’t seen me in this. We went for a lunch out before my Islamic tutorial. To summarise, the presentation went well, we were able to answer most of the questions, get to present in less than 15 minutes, (my part was so damn long, good to know it’s understanable-ish) that’s good but we have to stand in front of the class for almost an hour or so.

Feb 19

It’s Sunday! the day where most people would still in bed until the afternoon, or not. In my case, I have to get ready before 9:30 am. An early breakfast with my mom, not that far away, Giant Rimba. Bought waffles which is my boyfriend’s favourite, lekor and naan. Also hot milk tea! We went to my aunty’s place just to readjust my Tudong. I bought it, but I did not know that it would turn out so big.

The quality and price are really good. totally would buy more in the future. Also I do my planner for the week! where next week’s theme would be pink.

Feb 20

It’s been awhile, The Library. Wifi isn’t working. Preparing for my upcoming presentation about wordpress! But I need the wifi.

Feb 21

To the library again, because my boyfriend need to do some research for his work. I found Laws Of Brunei Darussalam! I did mentioned on my previous post that I really like Business Law module, which I want to take more but none available for this semester. So I get all excited reading some of the laws. (and found something funny as well) Lastly we went to Yugo! SCREAM FOR ICE CREAM! Can’t thank my boyfriend enough for successfully achieve the level of my I don’t even know cravings.

Feb 22

I shall -1500 HP today. The day when I have two test and presentation in one go. well not really. I had a test as early as 8 AM, an essay for at least 2 to 3 pages in an hour. bonus point the projector does not work. But I think I did my best for the test. I think, and I have 10 mins preparation for presentation, I know “YO GOTTA BE KIDDING MEOW” but yeah. The first presenter to present about WordPress. Yes! I did get a good feedback regarding my presentation, also a good question and answer session. One of my classmate took a picture of me presenting, hahaha thank you! and also received notification from my classmate on my blog regarding my presentation as well. so far so good. except for the part I have to study for hours to prepare for 7 PM quiz. And it was not good

Feb 23

It is the national day for Brunei Darussalam, 33th! I am really proud of my home. As well as our Sultan that cares so much about his people. One sad fact about me, I have never join the performance or anything related to that. I crei, but it’s okay.

Feb 24

Studying from am to pm,  well damn I need a break, so I went out for a bit with my boyfriend, bought burgers (too hungry to take picture) and snacks! Studying for Marketing Management test, in which it was okay, I know I did my best BUT time limit of 15 minutes for 20 questions? I is ded.

Feb 25

Downloaded this game, which I would write a review on it soon. Fire Emblem Heroes. I would say I’m not into playing games on phone, (except for pood’s) as for this one, I am addicted.

So, during my first semester, I wasn’t able to take Japanese Language Level one, due to huge number of demand and only a little number that are accepted. Bummer I didn’t get it. Second semester, I tried to categorize it as my first priority on module registration, BOOM! Finally I got it! I was so happy and so damn ready to learn Japanese Language, just because I want to watch anime without subtitle (you feel me hooman?), also probably go to Japan for my Discovery Year. Although I feel like ninety percent a no no chance to go there. Don’t give up! The class was fun, have the nicest sensei ever! As she pays attention to each one of her students, makes class more interesting with her activities.  At this point I’m able to introduce myself in Japanese language.

はじめまして。わたしはゆみです。わたしはハタチです。わたしはブルネイじんです。どぞよろしく。

Well kind of. To be honest I wasn’t doing well in level one, despite it’s level one. I had a hard time reading, slow af. Also writing, where I tend to forget です (desu) at the end of every sentence. From my previous post here, I focus too much on managing event and did not score for my test pretty much flip the table, from 100 to 0 real quick. Took Japanese language with my closest friend, got to say she’s really good and fast learner. But hey, got the support from her. Our joke are mostly ..

Sensei: Okay class practice with your friends or partner 

Me: Demo, watashi wa don’t have tomodachi desu 

and she’ll laugh afterwards, probably more joke I made that I don’t remember now. Fyi I’m the lamest yet you’ll laugh anyway HEHE. Also we joined Japanese Club where we made onigiri, does this Japanese traditional dance and anime related. Moving on to the part when there’s oral test. Where you are expected to speak in japanese fluently according to your level of course, on certain topics. Totally fucked that up. By fucked up, like really really fucked up. After oral, I got so stressed, I feel like boooooom headshot my dreams of Japanese Language or going to Japan cruch into pieces. No hopes for DY nor going there, or move to level 2. At that time, I was sitting on the floor with my friend, spoke fluent classic malay or kedayan. Laugh our ass off because whatever I was saying it was funny and sad also depressing.

So bad, so sick, so down, damn it hits me so hard. No motivation, all bad vibes, sad vibes, nightmare, so sad. Even at T-3 days before examination I can’t focus.

The result was, crei.

Second year and first semester, took level 2 for Japanese Language. Mainly I do have any other choice, I have to take 5 modules per semester, which I need one more. My boyfriend encouraged me to take another shot, he believed I could. So I did. Although I still have nightmares from my previous class. Still suck, still stuck. HEY! I had so much fun in class. With the same sensei. LUCKY! To learn Katakana, yikes so much similarities. By similarities how do you write and memorize クケシツソノンメスツフ。シツ is not a smiley face, nope nope!  However compared to last semester, this one is better. By better I mean, being the target in class was hahaha, I don’t know. Everytime sensei asked in Japanese language or asked students to talk in Japanese, I am ninety percent, most of the time got selected. #crei #why I don’t know why bruh, what did I do. Probably because my name is Yumie, easiest to remember? probably not. This semester we learned the word ユメ (Yume) close to my name ゆみ (Yumi – without e, or it will sound so weird like Yu-Mi-E) which, my classmate tend to miscalled my name as Yume instead of Yumie. IT DOES NOT SOUND THE SAME AT ALL. Do google that if you want to know the defination. And I did not sign up for that part alright. 

Unforgettable moment is that one of our project was to to create our own script – acting – speak in Japanese language, without looking at the script. Act in front of the class, with japanese student.  boy you don’t want to know what did I do. It was so embarrassing yet, I do have fun with my group, good thing my classmates laughed. Heres a clue, I have to dance to Pen Pineapple, Apple pen. It was fun, yet embarrassing, fun YET embarrassing. Also we celebrate teacher’s day, late teacher’s day. My classmates were amazing! I did enjoy all of the performances! Last battle was the examination, in which it was okay, I get to understand and read hiragana and katakana faster compared to last semester, however, I did not get to finished it on time. sigh. I tried my best. I know I do, and thank you to my boyfriend and my closest friend that support me. Also my mother who pretty much trying to speak in Japanese whenever she sees me. Ah, not to forget, still suck at Oral test, but other test was fine. The result? Satisfied!!

This is my note book, you know that typical anime character read a small book around, or before examination. It’s helpful, with the “feel” of anime character. Overall it was a fun experience, ups and downs.

Did you guys learn any other languages other than your native tongue language? I’m Bruneian, my language is Malay, and second language is English, third? Japanese! Well kind of. I want to learn Kedayan as well.

Do you guys have any other language you want to be fluent at?

Mine? yo Japanese straight!

“anime

ˈanɪmeɪ,ˈanɪmə/

noun

a style of Japanese film and television animation, typically aimed at adults as well as children.

1980s: Japanese, shortened from animēshon

So this cartoon, well-known around the globe, if you know nothing about it, at least you’ve watch Doraemon, or Digimon, Pokemon is everywhere come on.

IT IS NOT A CARTOON.

well technically it is, but some may get offended when one stated it is a cartoon, and one may argue as it is a holy god damn art from Japan, an animation created to soothe your soul turning you into anime geeks, or not. But hey, here I am. I have been into anime since, not sure since when. I don’t even remember what was my first anime, do you?

I am obsessed (I think) with anime or animuuu! its seasonal. For instance, that Tokyo Ghoul  era, it took me months to get over it. Where I wanted to buy the mask, the contact lens which I am not sure if it’s even possible to get it on to your eyeballs, it’s a huge/crazy lens. and not to mention really, really expensive, around BND$100 per pair.

“Bruh you can buy 100 nasi katok with that”

“no bruh more like, sushi, books, snacks and everything nice”

—❀❀❀—

Also, I ordered a customized phone case, a Kaneki customized phone case, Ghoul version. From Hs_colormadess you guys should check him out as well. recently I got a pin of Kaneki from my cousin. Oh! and ordered Tokyo Ghoul Nintendo 3DSXL sticker too.

Anime is love, anime is life

Anime

First of all my anime collection as in the anime series. I mean the video? Heres some of my animu series from mid year to December, watched most of it with my boyfriend.

(yes hooman, I have a boyfriend to watch animu with, my life is complete!) its fun to watch something you love or like with someone you love, chiaaa okay enuf. But seriously, I am happy to watch anime with him, where we share the stressful plot twist, where I crei like crazy, emotional, its amazing. Our first anime we watched together was Maid sama. Tokyo ghoul, via FaceTime.

—❀❀❀—

Naruto Series

Anime

CDs

My CDs collections, I used to go to Miri (Malaysia) for a family trip, more like shopping. CDs, manga, novels and my friends used to request for.. yes that goddamn cookies. I am a Naruto fan, so that explains a bit, that I have vol 1 to hundreds, plus the movies! including the latest Boruto. Are you Naruto fans as well? That will be cool. I do have more CDs, Another is one of my favourite horror anime, you should watch Corpse Party: Tortured Soul, my top 5 in the list!

—❀❀❀—

Tokyo Mew Mew

Loveless (BL)

Vampire Knight

Fairy Cube

Manga

My first manga was Tokyo Mew mew, bought it way back during secondary school at Giant Rimba, when Giant had Best Eastern, used to. Used to. To the reason why I bought it was because she has cat ears, Ichigo the main character has cat ears, I need that. I carried it everywhere, even to school and reread it, I know I’m that weird kid, leave me alone hooman. sobs. And another manga is this one. Just so you know, I was 14 I had my first BL manga. back then I know nothing, not hell of a thing about BL. A friend of mine gave it to me, bought it somewhere at UK. Re-reading it now got me..

“Dear 14-year-old self, I apologize to have you to touch this ***** piece of papers or book that contains 18+ images in which it includes a boy with cat ears being harassed by a guy with glasses. the good thing is, nothing more or near to sexual content since its vol 1 or else you will kill each and every cell in your brain. leaving you dead and reborn as a zombie with cat ears”

I mean really nothing close to +18 content, it’s just a sudden hug and exchange cringe-y emails and yeah.

OH! and one of my favorite Vampire anime related is Vampire Knight. The manga is not complete, I only have vol 1 to 13, planning to watch the anime soon.

—❀❀❀—

Games

Yesu, I have Nintendo 3DS XL as you can see at the image above, my dad bought it, as an advanced gift for my 18th birthday I think. My first game was, Naruto. hahaha.I used to play numbers of Naruto related games on Playstation 2, as well as Xbox.

Genre of Anime

What kind of or genre of anime do I prefer to watch? I am more into Horror and Gore kind of anime, quite dark I know. Other than that romcom (romantic comedy), anything funny with a bit of romance. My favourite would be となりの怪物くん Hepburn: Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun, somehow it motivates me to study.

So are you into anime as well? drop 5 top anime in the comment section below. Or any suggestion of anime to watch. Thank you!
