Another happy day

I'm happy today too.Maybe it's the karaoke yesterday.Part of it la.

I told my mum that PC fare is around the corner.Before I could continue,she said'I give u some $$$ and buy whatever you wanna buy lah.''

Instantly,I nodded.Haha.Before this,I was thinking whether should I buy the Sony Creative MP3 Player which costs around RM330.The storage is 1 GB. I only want 1 GB and not less than that..

So now,I no longer need to think twice again.HAHAHA! THANKS MUM! Maybe is because she can read my mind..I'd been quite moody recently.Just last week,I had a big fight with her..'coz I wasn't allowed to go out after 6pm..I REALLY WANTED to go and visit my ex-neighbour,but due to the curfew thingy,I can't. Actually I predicted that would happen.If I'm able to cross my mum's stage,I wouldn't be able to cross my dad's one.I would be dead the next day.I remembered there was once when I came back at 8.30pm,I was terribly cooked.DAMN.Almost banned to use the car but thank God,just being scolded only.

Haha....never felt so gay.Yesterday karaoke,today one of my wish is satisfied.AAAA.....

Happy Day

Today I'm very happy.

Went to neway karaoke in one u with my classmates,which I'm not so close with.As in,they are not my gang.Decided to go and chill out lor.Destress lil bit.Heheee..Found out that I got the Best Etiquette for mooting,which I didn't expect it.Although my friend,Lit Fwu,said that I was very polite.

Man most of us were so HIGH.We sang and dance for 4 hours non-stop.Haha..this is the first time I felt so relieved for the year 2007.

Until I forgot to go to Armani Exchange and have a look at the sunglass that I like.

Forgot to take pictures.Haihz...I change my hairstyle.Hehe.

Fun Mooting








Haih..sad case..actually I spent a few hours trying to download the blogskins..but I don't know why it just failed.Gosh.Gotta stick to this skin then.

I tend to worry unnecessarily. I was thinking the whole day what kind of questions will be asked by the judge..whether my script was good or not..whether I need to rebutt my opponents....etc
Finally the day has come. Unbelievable.Haha.

My moot would start at 3. Before that,there was a mooting competition going on. Saw the timekeeper walking up and down.So busy. My friend suddenly asked me'' wanna join mooting competition..??'' I was not responding to her question. I was concentrating on my mooting. mooting. mooting. Maybe I will join la..but not now la..too stressed up.

We went in to the court at 2.30 pm together with my senior counsel,amirah and my learned opponents,esther and jeannie. I was the junior counsel for the respondent, acting behalf on Mr Cotton.

Esther,senior counsel for the appellant, started her speech. It took around 12 minutes. Oh God.I was panicked.I was afraid that I would burst out laughing. Then,my senior counsel, amira started to talk. As usual, I heard words like telemessage..acceptance..contract..''my client''..bla bla bla..then its jeannie's turn. Oh gosh. It would be my turn after that. I looked at the expression given by the judge,she seemed tired.Confused. Oh I could feel the speed of my hear beats.Bok Bok Bok..!!!

All of a sudden,jeannie ended her speech. Then the judge said'' Your submission please, junior counsel for the respondent'' So I stood up eventually. And I started like this'' My ladyship, I am the junior counsel for the respondent Mr Cotton, Min yuen, and with your permission, I will continue the submissions on behalf of the respondent.'' Oh my gosh.I was so nervous until I could sense that my words were quite ''out''.. and there goes my tone as well.




Oh shit. I can't go on like that! So I started to cool down and THANK GOD.It went well.The only thing is that I felt thirsty. I'd been talking non-stop for 15 minutes. Hehee.So I went on:


If it pleases Your Ladyship,may I now proceed to deal with my first contention?




May It Please Your Ladyship.As my learned friend has argues earlier,there does not exist a contract between the appellant and the respondent.This is beacuse the telemessage was not effective until delivered;and the letter of rejection took effect upon posting.In other words,the offer was rejected before it could be accepted.How would there be a contract if there was no accepatnce at all?



Bla bla bla




Bla bla bla




Arguing and arguing

Finally:''Unless I can be of further assistance to Your Ladyship,that is the conclusion of my submission on behalf of the respondent.''

So today I was supporting my friends, wei yee and karen(both appellant),pik khee and jia sin(both respondent),wei chao,kian min,yi ping and florence(both appellant). Of all thoughts yi ping is the one I remembered the most.HE IS DAMN FUNNY.Before the mooting,during lunch break,he told me that he was going to seduce the judge(and demonstrated to me).And then, he cracked out:''An apple a day keeps the doctor away.''(his hands holding the red apple and showing to the judge) I was laughing like monkey's business.I looked at florence,his partner for mooting.She was kinda AFRAID,I would say.Oh ya,I remembered her words:'Oh man,what did I do wrong..that I get yi ping for my mooting partner.'' Seriously yi ping is our class joker.

So I stayed back to support pik khee and jia sin, wei chao, and yi ping. I really wanted to see wei chao and yi ping MOOT.Wei chao, is also a very funny guy.I would get entertained with him around no matter where and when.Maybe is because he likes to act and exaggerate.Haha. And I couldn't believe that yi ping actually BANGED the table.He was too emotional.EMO.Members of the floor burst out laughing,while he remained calm and cool and kept on arguing and arguing.Pooh.My stomach can't take it anymore.I'd been laughing so much that I felt the 'pinch' of it.



Today is a nice day which is full of laughters,I would say.It's so great to be in KDU college studying law twinning programme with a respectful and honoured university in the name of Oxford.

Mooting

Been very busy these few days..mooting is on Monday at 3pm..need to prepare my script and go through my opponent's bundle of authorities b4 I can actually prepare my script..haihz gonna burn midnight oil today..(used to tell myself I will but in the end it turns out to be the other way round...)

Bout the client interview..Thank God it's a good one. Ms Awanis liked it.My clients were claiming for properties owned by their dad(deceased).The estimated value is 2 mil.They were fighting during the whole interview,me and esther had to keep on calm them down.It's not easy to handle them as this is my 1st experience.Btw, I'm so pleased. At least I need not worry bout that.Mooting is killing me.There's so much work.Besides finding my bundle of authorities, I need to scrutinise my opponent's ones as well..and then I need to prepare my script for that..and then there's so much homework for criminal subject..3 long questions..I guessed we need to write 9 pages of essays..-.-

Me and my partner,amirah and other group of respondents has been staying back in the library searching for law reports..did some case findings..and explanation of facts..reading the judgments..my eyes are seeing nothing but judgments of cases..pooh-.-

Everybody is just so tensed up and moody..however,one good thing bout mooting is that we tend to improve our relationship among classmates.Pointed out by Lit Fwu.I agreed with him.I'd been very close to yi ping's angels except kah ying,she's the appellant..hua jie,wei chao,ainun,kian min(hardly talk to him in class,he's very quiet)and many more..im glad bout that.The 'wall' has been broken.I used to think that they were ''snobbish''..hmmm..silly me''

Need to stop here.Will update my blog next tuesday.It's bout my mooting.Hehee...

I love parties!



































Chinese New Year Party

Nervous.Preparing my contract law textbook and searching high and low for my contract notes,I grabbed my wallet and handphone and slipped it into my bag. I was allowed to use the car and so, took the car keys and remote and headed straight to KDU college. It was 7.50 am, reached college at 8.05 am. Saw a nice parking place..hehee rested for 15 minutes then received a phone call from wei yee, my close friend in college. She informed me that she's already in cafeteria. So I went to find her. Ordered a Hainanese Breakfast Set and a hot Milo.



4 hours of torture of contract law. I can't really recall which topic she covered. My eyes were half opened.Oooh.Finally she gave us a break.A half an hour break. Then only I realised Pik Khee actually knocked someone's car. Her Proton Waja was not badly damaged,merely scratched, but the Aveo Chevrolet was badly dented.Wow.Waja is tough baby. She went to the Guard House and managed to get the owner's phone number and contact him.



After class, at 1pm, we went to starbucks coffee in One U Old Wing, as it is so much wider compared to New Wing Starbucks.Wow it's so hard to find a proper parking place during Saturdays.. As usual, I ordered an ice blended Mocha without whipped cream, and a chicken union roll, as I had not taken breakfast. Any food looked appealing.Haha.Spotted a cute guy hahaa..hehee with his laptop..



We discussed about the mooting session. Case- Paper v Cotton. Haha..read the chapter of offer and acceptance. I am the respondent for the case, and the junior counsel. Aaa..I need to argue more than Amirah.She's my senior counsel. Two days ago, only realised there's gonna be a client interview the coming tuesday. And I'm the 1st team. Same goes to Mooting. Wow lucky number one for both. We are not told who is going to be out client. Not even the facts of the case. Basically we need to be very well-prepared and need to think wisely of what questions we are supposed to ask our clients in order to obtain full information, and also to propose an appropriate solution for their unsolved doubts.



Finally I fetched my friends to my house. My relatives already arrived. I'M SO EXCITED. Hehee..dont know why.Luckily the party went on very smoothly,no rain. Hahaa..here's some photos..











Top from left: me,amy



Bottom from left:jia sin,carole












Extra one person..hehee its wei yee..!









Sorry people..it's quite blur..erm (let's start from 12 clockwise)-Jia sin,serene,me,alif,jeannie,florence(the only person that is posing in front of camera) and wei yee..

There are more and more pictures to come..some crazy stuff we did..hehee too bad my friend can't send it to me now so I'll upload the photos tomorrow..hehee..patient ya!

Me and my family went to Summer Palace to eat dim sum. The food there is great, and the price is quite reasonable..as they are having an offer.But it doesn't apply if u wanna take away..they'll charge u double from the offer price..hehe...dunno what to write also...so I'll just stop here..Hang on i'll be updating my blog this weekend most probably..hehe...bb

Coping with stress

While I was cracking my brain of completing my essay of voluntary manslaughter,my cousin asked me '' Never update blog?'' Oh..great idea..hehe because I really get stranded in writing my essay.The question goes like this:

U,who was 22 years but with a mental age of 10 years, had a terrible temper, which he did his best to control. Also, because of a motoring accident he had only one leg. He was in the playground when a fellow pupil,V, abusively called him, ''Peg-leg.'' U lost his temper and pushed V to the ground. V,who had a thin skull was concussed by the fall. X,who was U's best friend, tried to pull U away from V whom U was trying to kick. W, a school master, came to the scene and, misunderstanding what was going on, pulled X off U. Released U ran and kicked V on the ground. V had died as a result of concussion and internal injuries.

Of course, U would not be guilty of murder because the mens rea cannot be satisfied,as he was provoked by V. And, for causation, I had only applied the O & S test..I'm confused whether I should apply other tests.Aaarghh! She's gonna 'attack' us again; is she having PMS everyday??

I have 2 assignments to do, which is legal method and contract law. The due date for legal method's assignment is 20th of march. So gonna do quick.Hmmmm....then there's gonna be a mooting which covers 40%...gosh...so much...The topic is gonna be about OFFER and ACCEPTANCE. My head,again,is gonna filled up with offer..acceptance..bla bla bla...


There's so many things to do



BUT



The fact that I'm gonna have a party on next saturday..and many of my friends are coming...I'm so excited!!! Heheheee.e...
