I've been having a lot of trouble getting to sleep at the it-is-time-to-sleep hour recently and I really wonder why. Yes yes, I always fall asleep at a particular standard time if I have nothing else better to do. Could it be because of you or is it just me?

I think the low levels of acetylcholinsterase or perhaps the abnormally long distance between the synapses in the grey/white matter is causing me to become retarded-ly slow when it comes to responding to accidents. Maybe, it is normal that humans have this lag time when carrying out voluntary actions. I used to think that it is rather funny when seeing actors in dramas watch a pot of plant fall towards them from a high storey instead of running away to avoid it. Okay, I probably understand now. Yes yes, I actually watch an "incubated-long-enough" bottle of merlot slide down from my fridge right in front of me this morning. Its not my fault really. Wines are troublesome. They have to be laid down instead of placing it straight up and I probably pulled open the door a little too hard that caused the wine from the already loose tray to slide downwards. The thing is, I actually saw it sliding down but I didn't manage to stop it from sliding down. Funny la. Lucky my father is not exactly pissed. And, this is not the first time I actually break glasses in a row. My mom's actually thinking of changing everything to plastic ware (eeyer..so obiang). Well, blame it on my synapses.Heh :p

And, this is what happens when you put two slightly crazy people together..No..it's when you put a crazy and a normal being together..



appalled by your indifference.Its making me sick..

Had starbucks last night after blending my brain for juice with psychologist-to-be and these pictures are taken with carol's Mac book. How cool is that? Lappie with cams on them are so for the vain-pokes.boo..aha! Well well, mine's still the best. The largest, heaviest and it even has a keyboard that u can flaunt your typing skills (its like plastic la). The brand embossed on the cover, when annouced, makes people laugh non-stop..whaha..how cool but i still love it best! yay.. -_-!

Oh..and i finally manage to see pictures captured during SOW. Found them from shuying's blog and put them together on my web album while playing around with picasa's new feature..hee..

Ever since school started, I havent really been able to engage in the activities I used to enjoy. Well, time and work could be the factor. I dunno? So, finally, I decided to stop inventing excuses and dived into the pool. Instead of my usual routine, I only aimed to finish half of it. As expected, it felt as though I carried out the whole routine! Oh man! I'm so gonna make sure I catch up this hols. Nevertheless, the whole experience felt as good and rejuvenating as ever! Time always seem to standstill. Gosh..and the word, HOLIDAY is stuck in my head. Ho-liday..hoo-lii-daaayy..hoho..yar.. and I actually told mz that I have a one-month holiday..yes yes, I wished..aha! so much stuff to complete!.oh yay, tmr's driving once again, after a self-scheduled two week break. Woots..slack eh?

I'm here for the hard times
The straight to your heart times
Whenever it aint easy
You can stand up against me
And maybe rely on me
And cry on me.........................the song's stuck in my head..thanks Cheryl

I wanna be there for you(:

i simply adore my little god-brother..(:

The bbq organised by Jo was good, I should say, excluding the ghostly "story-telling" part initiating by Jin though. Oh my, and Viv's train of thoughts are really..whoa..scary.
Besides that, laughing was the main activity I engaged in. So glad our OG could actually survive till now and still have so much fun.

Lunch was fabulous too. Nana came down to NUS and the 4 of us had lunch at munchie monkey's! Totally love the session. It's always so wonderful to realize how possible it is to communicate with people from different planets.(Oh,Cheryl's from Mars. She's like the PR there and I think carol was too tired today, so she probably stayed in Jupiter while we were having lunch). Wells, obviously nana and I were the only earthlings. Whaha!

Gosh.Its like 3.30 am now. I feel like playing bridge and mahjong suddenly. Today's like the first day of the long awaited break. A time for rest and probably play but a part of me never really looked forward to this break. Ironic but true.




would you not say goodbye if u were leaving?

Somebody once told me, "Nobody in this world is indispensable" and it struck me how fallacious the statement was. I always feel that the people around me actually have some power to influence(influence not manipulate) certain aspects of my life and this is so for anybody else. And, without these people, life would be bland, monotonous and well, meaningless.

The optimists constantly spur you on and give you advices to motivate you. The pessimists make you consider other alternative viewpoints that you could have missed out in your life and probably offers you a chance to act as an optimist. The competitors pressurize you 24/7 and for those who get affected darn easily, break out in cold sweat and start studying probably at the speed of light. For those who don't give a damn,well, don't give a damn. Well, it's good to have competition in whatever you do. It spurs you on but it gets onto your nerves when they constantly try so hard to check up on you/catch up with you. The crazy and bitchy people somehow spice up your life and it's true. These people make up a big portion of my life. The superficial ones make you feel like puking especially when they strike very superficial and insincere conversations with you. The backstabbers, erm...well...can just make you feel like pushing them off the building or slicing up their brains for anat classes. The 'take things for granted' ones constantly neglect the feelings of close ones around them. Obviously, there are more classes than whatever I've mentioned and without them, I really cannot imagine the type of life I'll lead. Yes, I probably do sound a little intolerant but it is definitely not easy to put up a front and be nice to whoever you cannot tolerate so my theory will always stand: Why tolerate then? Apathy is probably THE word. Maybe one day, I'll learn to act as a hypocrite, (like some people out there) put on a mask and smile to you even though I cannot condone your behavior. Wells, it seems that the first option still sound better eh? So, be a NICE person. Stop irritating people around you if you fall in any of the above nasty categories. (:

AHHHHHH!

I love sl-am-u-ryl-phi-t-rol...and the last, hopefully not the LAST, slamurylphitrol gathering was great. Had lunch at settler's and i realised how full of shit and retarded all of us still are. They're probably one of the few groups of people who will never fail to make me laugh til i cry. lol. Coffee with nana, carol and cheryl was, ahem, "happening"too. I'm still kinda shocked at the size of mudpie from coffee club though. To Chong-U: I know you'll definitely enjoy education and hostel life there but u better remember us and those retarded moments we all had! lol. Oh, u can also consider giving each of us an air-ticket as a momento so that we can fly there to visit u one day... muahaha!Happy packing! (:

I wanna SING my lungs out..



Did i ever tell you...

Another brain-frying day for the even week. Human brain on your plate, anyone? Time wheezes past like how an object experiences free fall when it drps from skyhigh, to the power of 1 trillion. Gosh..half the sem is almost over and I thought my Uni life just started. Oh weellss...

Wells, had my first CA today admist all the report-writing and preparations for tutorial...and i have to say that its not too bad..

My gosh. Today's bad. Everything's moving and progressing too slowly. My bus today to school took 6 million years to arrive. Following that, the chem lecture took 6524267347 hours to end. Thereafter, the first A shuttle bus that arrived after 14 years later, left joon, viv and I waiting for another, fetching maybelle and the rest to central forum. Then, on the way back to sci fac, the shuttle bus that we managed to board took another 23746 seconds to close the rear door at every single stop, not mentioning that it also travelled at probably the speed of 3 milli miles per hour or smth. And finally, on my way home, the ever-packed 95 took probably about quarter of my life to reach buona vista (it was non air-conditioned too!) and I was only informed that I need not work today only after I reached the office. Man....I must make teleport-ation reality.


Oei..stop it.

For those of you who love western food, you should try out "New York, new york" which is situated in City Link. I thought the food was better than NYDC. Besides, the seats are green and they complement my clothes! Aha..woots. And, a shout-out to all girls: You should watch "The devil wears Prada" if you havent done so. Love the extravagant clothes, accessories as well as the message the movie conveys. Oh and to carol: you better love our belated surprise and gift! It reminds you of us... Muahaa..(:



you make me wanna..

I love to have random thoughts. R-A-N-D-O-M. Yup, that's the word. I like it. Yea, you know..sometimes, when you got nothing to do or when you get too stressed out, your mind starts drifting on random stuff..(:

To wait is a seemingly painless effort. I mean, yar..it is not like you get beaten up while waiting. Of course, it differs according to the situation that you're in- you wait for a taxi, wait for "monster house" to start showing on 31 Aug, for your friend in the toilet to apply her blusher, for your parents around the cashier in the supermarket to help carry groceries, for your cutie/hot-pie to take the initiative in telling you "ooh...you're the one", for the clock in your monotonous office to stop working, for education to complete, etc. The list goes on and on and on. However painless it may seem, deep down, certain waits can be rather hurtful to your emotional senses. We call those, the long waits, those that you spent probably one-quart of your life waiting to get it done. Well, probably that "moment" has not arrived and so you think it is inappropriate to take initiatives/action. You then start to give yourself excuses, resulting in time slipping by without being aware. And for some, remorse sets in. You then start blaming yourself for not doing it at that point of time or grabbing that bloody opportunity. You become frustrated and becoming frustrated or irritated is hurtful to your emotional being. Also, it could be because of the lack of opportunities or resources and so, you are left with no choice but to wait. This is probably even more painful, especially when your wants are so near yet so far. On the optimistic note, to wait could be a blessing in disguise. Well, patience is a virtue, isn't it? Better opportunities may come by, better luck may come by and if you believe in miracles, miracles can happen. Thus, the painful wait becomes worthwhile. In retrospect, grabbing whatever opportunities that is presented to you is important because certain things/feelings can be lost in the process. You wait in vain, time is lost, the day you start to regret arrives, you think you got jinx-ed and finally when you start sorting out your thoughts, you will realize that, wells...all is too late.

Oh, and I am suddenly in love with ultra black hair with blue tones which only appear at times.Woots..Haha...true blue Asian.


am I not supposed to wait?

Nose running like a tap and dark circles around eyes..Oh my, the previous late nights are taking a toll on my body. Following Wednesdays (brain-frying days) are late Thursdays and a supposedly free Friday which, I however spent it rather meaningfully. Hee. Met up with Yee Lin and the girls and only then that we realized how lagged we were when it comes to happenings about the old dunearn alumni. It seems weird that all of us always cannot make it for whatever functions the alumni plans. Haha, I wonder why...Ahem
Oh, and the tai-tai life just suddenly seem so strange and distant. Having tea at TCC on a sunny, warm and quiet afternoon just feels weird.
The whole get-together ended with carol and I making our way to NUS to help Bing Ting with her banner for Union ball. It always feels good to do your best when helping your friends do stuff. And, I'm so proud of the result, considering that we had no rough plan and that we had to come up with the idea on the spot. Here goes..Tada..! Karine came up with the catch-phrase and "woo" is like woo-hoo.. yar..whatever that means...LOL. And, the right side is meant for her photo collage, in black and white- a mix of retro-ism and vintage-ism..So, say that the banner is nice...(:


And, I thought Saturday's gonna be a bash. Apparently, it was rather disappointing. Good thing I engaged muffin as my gigolo that night. Aha! I expected music to be R&B and that when I enter the place, it'll be filled with people. People, who are dancing, people who got high, people who are enjoying their cocktails and whatnots and immersing in the atmosphere. It turned out rather differently and I left almost soon after. (K. and Nixon even switched to another club) ahaa..Oh wells..

You give me strength..

oh man. I think i'm seriously jinxed by carol's superpowers. Maybe tarot cards helped. I see E.L.S.W. everywhere I go. seriously! (Except for lunch. And, I would not want to see him during lunch. I'd probably suffer indigestion or multiple vomitings :x) I see him in lectures, practicals ( yar man, he ran in with googles and labcoat on) tutorials and on the bus 198 today. I even see his name in the IVLE! This is worse than... yar, whatever bad stuff you can think off...EEee

And, I think Wednesdays are bad. They fry my brains to almost being fully cooked, not even leaving it medium raw. Okay...whatever..ahaha...


I've been to almost everywhere in search of you...

Ahaa..chanced upon 5d's blog and grabbed a few peekchures to piece them up. didnt know he took so many of them that night and allof them are pretty nice shots.Credits to u, 5d(:

Uni life is really different- so different from any educational stages u went through in the first half of your life. No more class reps or prefects, counselors or whatsoever. The ex-co of a society or a club no longer is ruled by seniors of the oldest batch- the year 4s. It would naturally take some time getting used to such changed environment but I already began to feel like a Uni student, especially when I travel around school alone (weird and I wonder why). Other than that, my brain, which I have not been utilizing for probably a year, still needs time to adapt and adjust. I think I am lagging rather badly and I am getting the NiCK syndrome-failing memory. I can forget about what I have said or have done 3 seconds earlier. That's how bad the situation is. It must be the immense workload on my poor brain cells that landed me in the terminal stage of that disease. Aye aye..

School has been kinda okay so far (I'm still trying to catch up, sadly) and I still cannot decide whether or not to take up a CCA. I thought lunch time will be terrible and alone. Lucky, there are carol and my OG mates. Oh, and I predicted that I can open a library of textbooks by the time I graduate from Uni. Maybe I can rent them out and collect charges to reimburse all that I've spent. Tsk tsk...my wallet's totally burnt; too many holes


I'm crazy about meeting Mr A
but who's Mr A?
I wonder who too...

madnesssss....

First day of school was kinda er boring.I had only 1 lecture today. The lecturer had a scottish accent and half the time, he wasn't speaking into the mic.( According to DX, he sounded like the Terminator.) The LT was warm and I could hardly hear and understand what the lecturer was explaining when I was sitting all the way at the back.

While fanning myself and trying to figure out what he was trying to say, I managed to get these pictures bluetoothed from You Jin. The mummies and Addam's during talentnight...Haha..
