Liberty!

So I said I'd be writing more intelligent and insightful posts after my exams are over, but I hit my head... real bad... so I'm excused from that promise I made earlier.

I have a baluku (bump) on my head the size of a tutu kueh! (you know that fluffy white steamed cakes they sell at 5 for $2?) Just my luck, I slip and fall while ice skating (I bet Chio was cursing me) and land right smack on my head. Don't ask me how I fell, I just fell and no, my life didn't flash before my eyes. Though I did feel as if my brain and eyeballs had swapped places for a split second when I landed. And guess what's the first thing I uttered even before I could open my repositioned eyes?

"Thank God my exams are over."

I think it took me a whole 5 minutes to get my ass off the ice even though I was soaked right through with freezing ice water. You don't realise these kind of things when you feel like your brain's spilt out. You can actually see my bump from under my hair!!

SEE!!!
It's like a perpetual hangover that doesn't go away! And my paranoid mum made me go to the A&E in the evening despite me being fine (besides for the nagging pain), hence we ended up paying a hefty $80 and waiting a torturous 3 hours before having the doctor ask me 10 questions, (all of which I said 'no' to) and getting a box of Panadol. So it roughly comes up to $5 a question and $2 a panadol. blardy hell...

If you see me within the next few days, SHOW SOME SYMPATHY AND DON'T EVEN THINK OF HITTING MY BALUKU! I'll skin you alive and fry you for lunch.

As quoted from xiangwei, *Pouts*

Oh my gosh, it's been such a long week! And a tiring one too. I've actually been dreading the end of the a levels, but now I simply can't wait!

I have nothing to blog aout now, my mcq paper's tomorrow though, yuck. =P

Ants!

After freezing my guts during the Chemistry paper, I took the pleasure of thawing in the sunlight as I strolled home. You'll never guess what I saw on my way home, a walking flower!


All right so it's an ant carrying a blossom, which was pretty intriguing since it's like 3 times it's size. It's something we see pretty often, and I normally detest ants to the core, don't get me wrong, I still do, but it's just that this scene seemed pretty comical. Nice lush greenery... Cars driving past... the peaceful overpriced Min Jiang playing afternoon selections... and a walking FLOWER. =)

Anyways I got a better shot of the little fella, since he had the courtesy to show me his butt the first time.

I decided against taking a photo of his buddy a few inches behind him who was carrying a fellow (dead) comrade. It seemed a little gory to me since he was probably going to bring the body home and tell his ma,
'Hey ma! I brought a friend home for dinner!'
'*CHOMP!* *CHOMP!*'
'Wah! boy ah! Your friend has such nice legs!'

Now you know why I decided not to take a photo of that

Wah kao!! I'm damn freaking pissed! I just deleted like over 30 photos from my phone thinking that I had already transferred them to my computer when I hadn't! And as if there's the Bermuda Triangle of the computer, the photos are no where to be found now and ARGHGHHGH!!!a'fhd'sklfh'adoh

damn you technology!! damn you for making us all so reliant on you! It's YOUR fault!

'adfiuhd;akjfadsk;ajdbai;erfk;jg npadih/

I was initially deciding on what to post about and my choices came down to
(a) Cons's recent concert
(b) My father's undeniable talent of blame-pushing (he has AMAZING justifications)
(c) A lazy but rather convenient photo update with a selection from the THIRTY photos I took WHICH ARE NOW GONE
(d) Other non-frivoulous matters like ME, ME, ME (kidding)

However I now discovered option (e) due to this unfortunate incident, which happens to be:
Ranting, complaining and mild swearing.

wah kao1!!!!!

Urge

I'm reminded of Herbal Essences's advertisement. Oooooo... I have the overwhelming urge to write a short post to save people from their mundane notes and not so T, TYSes. Let's be honest, how long can you ACTUALLY sit in front of your books? Unless I'm with Mings, the ultimatum of studying stamina, 2 hours tops before I go prancing around the fields of gold. (Where got?)

Now I'm sneezing like there's no tomorrow, if I were to get a dollar for every sneeze, I'd be a millionare. *Aachooo!!* Irritating nose. So here's a quick encouragement to any poor student in Signapore who's reading this!

If you think you suck at exams, always look on the bright side, you're not the worst and keep telling yourself you have the innate capability to do it. I think your mindset really matters a lot when you do the examination. If you're all nervy and unconfident during your paper, you'll have a higher tendency to give up when you meet a difficult question, you won't even bother to try to rack your brains for an answer because you tell yourself it's not there. IT'S THERE OK! EVEN IF IT'S UNDER LAYERS OF DUST. We don't need statistics to tell us that self-motivation is important, (we have plenty of capitalistic motivational speakers who do) so be confident!

And if you think you know it all and the A levels are peanuts, screw you! Even geniuses have more modest!

Haha, have fun people! There's only one exam like this, unless of course you enter engineering where it's the a levels all over every 6 months. :D

Pree A level de-stress!!

Ok people we all know how near the exams are, but you HAVE To watch this!! IT's DAMN funny!!!

FAT CAT!!

Here's the fat cat again! I never thought I'd live to the day to meet the real life version of Garfield, boy was I wrong! This fella takes no more than 5 steps before collapsing his furry little bum on the marble floor, often the rest of his body follows and his 'I-am-King' look is turned on. I can already see the little 'think bubble' popping out of his head saying, 'Man, was that a workout! *pants*' Damn fat and cute! If mutant powderpuffs were to one day try to take over the world, I'm pretty sure they'll look like him. Haha...

One more month till freedom! Before uni starts of course.

Something sweet

I had such an eventful day with the Chiobu yesterday! And as I have promised her, I shall devoting this post to her and the events :D

After our TB skin test at TTHS, Chio very nicely accompanied me for my checkup at KK (No I'm not pregnant). We saw the CUTEST kid ever. The pictures I took are a gross understatement of his adorable cuteness!!

His smile was so heart-melting! This picture failed to capture his 'act-coy-smile' as I like to put it, the cutest thing was when he imitated Chio's 'act-coy-smile' which has her putting her hand to cover her mouth. Sorry I didn't catch that, I was a little paiseh la, take picture of other people's kids. Oh yes, and I have to mention that whilst all this was happening, Chio was STILL wearing her Burger King crown. (My doctor later acknowledged her as Burger King!)

This is the Troy/Hector version of the crowning. She behaved so naturally that it was hers till she made it seem like a hairband, putting it on after she brushed her hair/adjusted her fringe/etc. True king man.. haha.. So chio and the kid continued to bashfully 'flirt' infront of his mum and also very cute grandma. There were a few times when he beckoned her over, damn adorable, seriously! She was pretty sad when we had to go in for my consultation, but he was still waiting when we got out, and remained so while I made payment and stuff. And then the most heart-wrentching thing happened! He went in the doctor's room! It was as if Chio had lost one of her limbs forever. She was so heartbroken! So we sat and waited for him to come out (I think I spent over 2 hours in total waiting the whole day) So while she pined for him to come out, even his granny laughed at her and told her to wait, haha.. damn cute granny.

Aiyo it was like a chinese drama when his clinic room door opened! Both of them literally squealed with delight! We rushed over and she finally carried him! Aiyo, it looked like a mother -son reunion! Only cross race la, haha..

I tell you the entire scene was so sweet and funny! I smiled till my cheeks ached! Even the neighbouring families watching the entire process were gleaming and laughing! haha, meanwhile these 2 fellas were so absorbed in each other! My heart really just melted when I saw him reseting his head on her shoulder, aiyoooo, he looked sooo peaceful and happy. I don't know how to describe it, you guys should have seen it. Can you imagine carrying a stranger's kid and he just rests on your shoulder as if you were him mum?? Now tell me that doesn't make you go all soft and warm!! Awwwwww~
And he was actually sayanging her! So cute, he cried when we left after 2 failed attempts by his mum to re-carry him, haha... Of course chio was equally or more heartbroken when we had to leave. It's amazing what connection they had. It was just so natural. *beams*

Shit, 14 days to the examinations of my life and I'm here about to write about frivalous material. I initially wanted to post a long wordy article about the case of Repealing 377A, the law against gay sex, but considering that my favourite TV show is coming on soon and I have less than 15 minutes, I'll save that brain torture for another day. Sooo...

Pictures!

The epitome of pompous cattiness! I took the liberty of adding a crown for his highness! Wah lao look at his smug face la, haha... buay tahan.

I thinkI have an eye for capturing still food. Especially in my mouth. Beeeaaannss..
Failed self photo taking

Funny videos!

Oh dear, I've gotten so used to not writing that I no longer really want to write much despite today being my last official 'school day' in ACJC which should normally be accompanied by plenty of emo, nostelgic prose. However I know everyone feels the way I feel, it's the same for every farewell, no matter at what age and in which context. In addition, most people aren't exactly feeling all warm and mushy seeing that the irritating exams are going to be here in TWENTY ONE DAYS. Yes, TWENTY ONEEE.

I honestly can't believe how far I've come in my life and this school. However considering that I've probably only lived about a quarter of my life, this is nothing. But then again, how fun and exciting can being a granny be? Despite having a life which on average should last about 7 to 8 decades, only the first 2 are jam packed with action. Darn. So not worth it, haha.. kidding, kidding..

Anyways, Oops, seems like I've written quite a fair bit already. So here's a video presenting guys from our Arts Faculty.. ( I refuse to say CO for fear of ensuing stigmas)

Names shall be withheld for privacy's sake (how ironic)



And remember how I always insist that Oily's not only full of oil but also of resounding air? Siyi and I tested this hypothesis, conclusion? It's true!!

Verbal constipation

It's been a long time since I've written something wordy and expressive, partially because I'm too caught up with trying hard to fight with the elite people in Bukit Timah 'campus' and partially because I have the tendency to be reclusive. When I first started this blog I had no qualms about rambling about matters which mattered to me and the few people in my very tight social circle, it was, at that stage, a pretty much personal blog. However somewhere in between then and now, I lost that sense of security of blogging what I think/feel whether or not they be radical thoughts or not because of the high cost it might bring. Unless I resort to siyi's password style which defeats my purpose of allowing old aquantances/people in the larger social circle from 'catching up with me'. It's amazing how much you can learn about a person through their blogs.

SO how? I want to have my cake and eat it. To be able to write my thoughts and feelings without qualms and yet allow others have a look at my life without being bored/offended in any manner. I feel constipated because I don't share a lot of things, I find it probably difficult for other people to understand, I mean, you're not me, I don't blame you. Aiyoi.. >_<(constipated face)

So I'm stuck back at square one, thanks blog.

Reading good blog entries of others are so fulfilling. :) some people just have the amazing ability to utillise the English language so perfectly. Unlike me LOR. And oily shut up ah, I tell you I cry in front of you then you know (muahaha...) It's very funny when you see how helpless and useless guys get in front of a teary eyed girl, haha.. (No specific examples, I've seen it a lot of times and it's normally always the same lost/stoned/helpless look)

Sorry for the lousy post. Now go and mug everyone!

A moment of bliss

Funny scene in class today which happens oh so rarely:

Scene: A very stoned us in a class on the 7 floor, waiting for our tutor to come. In steps ANDY (renowned for his uber laid back, wassup-dude attitude who's 100% late for class)

Andy: Hey class is on the second floor. ( he comes in and puts his bag down)
Rest of Us: har.. aiyo climb so much already.. Really anot?
A: Ya really. (continues sitting there)
ROU: Yeah right,. you sure anot?
A: Wah lau really la!

*nobody moves, silence for about 15 secs*

A: Eh, you guys not moving?
ROU: Really anot?
A: Ya duh!
Rou: But it's ANdy leh.. ok pretend you didn't come up! *laughter*
A: Wah lau! seriously man!

*nobody moves for another 10 secs

ROU: REally ah?
A: REALLY LA!! Come on man you can trust me!
ROU: uh your hair says otherwise (andy had just gotten some funky punky haircut)
*laughter*
A: no kidding la!~

we move on to walk down 5 darn floors for econs, haha.. it was a short moment of nonsensical happiness. :)

Fly me to the MOON!!

Constance you better be able to play the bass like that by Sat! haha.. these guys were from ac I think, the guitarist is just SO charming. :)

Oei! You 2 should be grateful that I'm a considerate photographer, I took the best sides of both of you! (unlike st0opid cons) -__- Very fun right, take stupid pictures of me and laugh your head off, aiyo call yourselves sisters! *pouts* haha

Lelong!! Lelong!! Anybody wants them? Buy 1 get 1 free!!

Angry + Stress = Angst

It's been a terrible, terrible week. One so draining and sickening that I never ever want to go through it again. As much as I oppose to emo posts because they're selfish and inconsiderate to the reading audience, I can't tahan holding all this in and desperately seek an outlet. As siyi would say, it's my blog and my decision. So allow me to declare this: THIS IS GOING TO BE EMO

I've never felt such screwed up emotions before, I had such a sleepless night thinking about what exactly I'm experiencing and why I'm acting this way. I'm not going to bother with the whole background info because it tires me and I don't even know myself what the background info is. My mind is in such a flurry because of all the bombardment my mind goes through each day, GP essay outlines, analysing artcles, recalling info about atoms and molecules while resolving forces on free-body diagrams, I feel exhausted. Plus the fact that I'm anal in the sense that I need to justify matters before I can let them rest, resulting in me spending time thinking, why is it such? what's the root of all this? I'm quite a fan of causal theory, but not as absolute as the theory itself. I concluded a few things yesterday

-Unlike most who express their disatisfaction at that particular point in time, I prefer to remain calm and empathise with my antagoniser. However my habit of bottling everything in and not getting pissed at the moment has become natural, until I get back home and realise, wth did I take that shit for?? Then I burst and therefore there's a lag in my pissed-off-ness which spillsover to the next day.
-I'm behaving in such a selfish and inconsiderate manner to some because I'm just so sick of always being nice and giving in. give and give and give...wth
-pms is probably the reason why I'm so cranky all the time. The stuffy weather doesn't make it any better.
-There are 40 days there abouts to the A levels, and I'm thoroughly disatisfied with myself.
-I'm pissed but no longer can express it the way I used to be able to. I don't know why, I just lost that skill. Which is emotional constipation, seriously.
-I'm so freaking stressed that even though my face/actions may not say it at times, my body automatically does and I begin clenching. My jaw has been aching like hell and I probably drove my teeth in by another couple of millimetres.
-I'm exhausted cos I don't sleep well even though I sleep enough.
-Everything's just so sickening because once you start your train of thought its difficult to stop. I think I've been reading too many psychology related things. Argh

Grrr...

But of course there're always the good times, I really have to thank mings, for wearing my warm smelly sports shoes and lending me her court shoes yesterday, for tahaning my whining when I'm hot and sticky, for mugging and pushing me to mug, and for just making the week seem not that bad after all. :) And chio chio who's ridiculous camwhoring is hilarious!!

And of course all the other victims who've experienced my crankiness through the week, haha, poor intimidated oily.

Gimme a week and hopefully everything gets better

Wriggling Yellow Stuff

I officially am averse to unknown, mushy yellow stuff. Not too long ago, as some of you might have heard, I had the unfortunate experience of discovering a maggot in my over-over-ripe banana. I was peeling the banana's skin when I saw it's bruise, upon closer examination, I noticed that the bruise was moving. It didn't take me long to realise what THAT meant.

Today was a horror story, my sister had been smelling something bad in the kitchen and pulled her guts together to open the kitchen cupboard. There lay an intimidating scene... a covered kuali (you know that think to char kuay teow) SO what lay inside the kuali that was so revolting? There sat a metal container of yellow goo, with funny stuff around it. Here's the best part, IT WAS MOVING. There were freaking maggots in there!! The slop was alive!

I'm not going to cook or step into the kitchen as much as I can for the next few weeks at least~

And I definitely wont be eating bananas or corn

I had a good day in school but a bad one outside. Grrr...

My mum just took me to look at some 2.2 million dollar apartment at Melrose near her office. No we aren't moving there and neither are we close to even buying something that exhorbitantly priced. Honestly I think that place is a rip off. The master bedroom is about the same as ours, which is puny if you don't know and the overall lighting of the place is just bad.

yay, pizza in the office :)

Caffine - Best discovery ever

Tell tale signs that I have just had a cup of coffee not too long ago.:

When I'm doing work/in lecture

-I'm conscientiously doing my work, so absorbed that I enter my own world of calculus and complex numbers
-I look at the lecturer and ACTUALLY copy what she's writing while listening
-I cross my legs and begin looking at the clock every 30 seconds with a look of great distress, this is normally accompanied by me whining to my neighbour that I need to pee.. Desperately.

During a break

- I talk a lot and at increasingly fast speeds
- I seem interested in whatever the topic at hand is even if it may be about something as unintersting as floor tiles
- I'm very smiley and hyper
- I need to pee.
In the car/ late at night

- I talk to my family about any and every single thing I can think of, which I normally don't because I'm too tired to talk in the car.
- I attempt to harmonise (note:attempt) with every single song that plays on the radio, much to my mother's annoyance who insists that I sound like an animal.
- My voice gets a couple of tones higher and I speak at a much much faster rate
- I need to pee

Fellowship of the chocolates!!

Here's a quick one for you, how many different coloured M&Ms do you reckon there are? 6? 10? 15? Now brace yourself for the fellowship of the (M&M) ring!!

TA-DA!

My sister's extremely intelligent friend, the one who managed his Master's thesis in 3 days instead of the given 3 months and still got an A+ and whom has now recently returned from the States with the most intriguing 'souvenir' I've ever recieved in a looong time, (hence pushing his IQ up by a few more points in my books!) :) got me what I would like to call, a set of M&Ms. There are 18 freaking colours in that box man!!!

'Very thrilling meh?" you may ask.

I'll call you a boring bunch of sour grapes because all you have are your 6 coloured M&Ms (blue, brown, yellow, red, green). Bleagh to you! I think my sister thought I had completely lost it or that I was really a bimbo at heart when I got all hyper about getting 18 colours, I mean seriously, 18 colours! That's like way WAY too much food colouring! Hey I think I should bring them to school one day and test the guys to see if they were colour blind, I bet XW would only see 3 colours.! Anywyas, thanks Lionel! Sorry I didn't get to thank you personally in church, but I thought an entire post devoted to you/your M&Ms would be better. haha.. Hey, this picture has made it as the wallpaper of my phone ok, and as most of you would know, the only few photos I would shuffle as my wallpaper would be that of my darling guitar and my AC school badge. And of course not to forget that of Chio's.

=)

Pixar is hilarious!!

Take a break from all that studying and take a look at these!!

I totally adore this one!







This one has a nice ending





And my all time favourite from ages ago
