The Art of Getting By








long live PAP

Sunday, April 30, 2006

It's election time again! OK i'm still not being seen as rational enough to vote, but you know, i'll vote for low thia kiang (hougang lah) if i can hahaha! i feel that no matter how good you think the government is, there should still be some opposition voices, for the fun of it... er i mean to represent the voices from below.

Really, who needs more playgrounds or exercise bars when half of the people in hougang are 40 years old and above? do YOU see overcrowded playgrounds with kids queuing up to climb the monkey bars? what the aunties and uncles want is a friendly and approachable MP, machiam like their friend liddat, and that's what low thia kiang is. although it's quite regrettable to recognise that sometimes, his actions are limited because he's from the opposition, but hey i'm happy the way my area is. it's not THAT backward, it's got the 'old town' kinda feel.

But of cos, i'm not saying that i support the opposition to form the government cos honestly, who's gonna be what??? but fortunately that's never gonna happen man. not now. long live the PAP.


Sidetrack: i've severely underestimated the power of traffic jams. remember don's birthday? i dunno how i'm gonna move around town during weekends with so many cars around. all of you stop learning driving and take the bus OK???!

econs abandoned me but don is here

Wednesday, April 26, 2006

AHhhhhhhhhhhh econs is so difficult :( maybe i shall switch major. i'm extremely terrified of receiving my results already. tomorrow last paper! but i'm not as happy as i expected myself to be cos i know i submitted rubbish micro and macroecons papers! ahhhhhhhhhhh............

And i think i got too stressed doing econometrics yesterday that i caught a fever. heh but don was here to take care of me! i had homemade gourmet smoked salmon sandwich and minestrone soup today, just like those in nice sandwich bars mmmmmmmmm...... he's such a sweetheart. :)

OK back to studying. i'm still catching up with my webcast lectures when the exam is 9am tomorrow. whee bye.

the fried rice that made me flunk microeconomics

Monday, April 24, 2006

I hate KR breakfast now. i used to only dislike it a little cos they always look like they're dunked in oil. but now my resentment has deepened cos i'm convinced that it gave me a stomachache during my paper and i'm going to flunk it. nevermind that i'm not prepared for the paper. damn you fried rice now look what you've done, now i need to get an A for something to balance out the C! hell!

I'm going to switch back to cereal tomorrow.

3 more to go!



In the meanwhile, let's look at anuja. she writes down her daily task on her wrist so that she never forgets them. so brilliant. why didn't i think of that.




Then she got jealous at my hairless legs and did this to me.

So i retaliated. my handwriting sucks lah haha sorry.

Everyone loves me. i scribbled this is where the fried rice went on her thigh too but no pictures of that. but poor lishi got it the worst.



HAHAHA tweetion teacher was right i think we're retarded.

i like sociology! (i will not declare my love yet)

Saturday, April 22, 2006

Yay i paper down 4 more to go.

Just wondering. what would you do if your lecturer puts in his own papers that he wrote, into your compulsory readings? and his papers are damn bloody difficult to understand with words that he came up with his own like transcendentalisation. what do you do if when conducting the review lecture, while summarizing the concepts of different writers, your lecturer goes:"Goh said that.... Goh is me.... he said that there is a transcendentalisation of consciousness... (whatever that means)."

Do you diedie also wanna read and try to use his concepts in your exam to suck up to him? or do you avoid it completely in case you misunderstand what he means? hmm. i chose the latter. cos i can imagine him reading my essay and thinking HEY DAMN NO THAT'S NOT WHAT GOH MEANT!


I came to realise that i really like sociology. not the exams of cos but i love to be able to rationalise how the society behaves. it's like when you see a group of 5 girls who love to go toilet together and you go ha! i know why you behave in this way! feels like i can actually indulge in an intelligent discussion. No really! i can tell you why Singapore is still so religious despite modernization but please. right now please don't ask me how a productivity shock will affect the economy according to the Keynesian Theory. my brain will wither and die. i'm so tired of econs now.

Anyhow, i have 4 consecutive papers from monday till thrus. pardon me for being grouchy.

random thoughts in the shower

Tuesday, April 18, 2006

There was once a sexy thing named lishee
Who would cook if you pay her a nominal fee
Singing is her favourite sport
Her librarian look is so hot
So we all want a piece of lishee please!

I conjured that up while i was in the shower yesterday. i'm so brilliant. (ya right wtf hahaha)

Then ceying ask me what am i doing thinking of lishee in the shower. what can i be doing? can't i just be thinking of her and making up a limmerick while doing a brainless job like cleaning myself? must it be related to the fact that i'm showering? i mean, i think about a lot of things while showering you know. like why the LM curve shifts to the right/how i wish i could have ice-cream everyday/how to prevent my nails from chipping/anuja is a sweet young thing etc. very random stuff. i could even think of politics if i want to.

So i wonder what kinda of things does ceying think about in the shower huh?

Anyways anuja has a new clothes hanger. check it out. it's beautiful.

exams :(


Having exams sucks like hell! but you know what sucks more? it's having exams but you're playing yahoo games (reaches out to melf) and watching tv the whole day instead of studying.

I have a hundred and one excuses for not studying. too hungry too hot too tired too sleepy too stressed too depressed too restless and wasting time online like NOW. but i just refused to go out cos i insist that it's exam time i'm supposed to stay in and study, but the problem is i'm not studying!! urghh damn you exams.

I hate you go away.

Suddenly i have an image of an ostrich in my head.

swoons.

Thursday, April 13, 2006

I saw this guy at co-op (NUS bookstore/grocery shop) just now, he was holding those sweet pink long tubes that contain little strawberry chocolates in it. i dunno if he bought them for some girl or he liked strawberry chocolates or what, but he looked sooooo cute holding them!! i think mainly because he was looking somewhat awkward holding them pink tubes. so guys don't go away thinking you'll look cute holding little pink things cos you have to look awkward first to be rendered as cute.

It reminds me of my little fantasy last time: a suave looking guy holding a huge bouquet of flowers, standing by a busy street, waiting for me.

Can you picture it?? it's how cute lah.

My mum's horrible. when it comes to letting go of her apron strings she claims that i'm still a child and i can't have, (the golden word) freedom yet. there's no point working towards an overseas exchange really.

THEN when it comes to solving problems she says i'm an adult already i should deal with things myself.

Gee i wish she would make up her mind.

--------------------


OK after Command night, i can't seem to look at boys in the same way anymore.

note: Command is when the final-year-residents in KR put up a performance, usually a lame and self-embarrassing one.

People who were there will know what i mean. it was hilarious. with a brokeback theme, revolting transvestite content, 25-year-old man donning cheer-leading outfits and putting up convincing routines. urghh i was mildly disturbed. haha will post up some photos when i get hold of them!

-------------------


Some people were a bit concerned with my last post heehee. yeah i'm ok really. i thought this particular *ahem* person hung up on me because he was pissed. so i became even pisser at him. but i didn't mean that HE was annoying. i meant the situation is. anyway what really happened was he fell asleep holding the phone cos i refused to say anything, and it fell to the floor into shut off. pooh!

From experience, i often piss off people without realising it. but sometimes, i wish they would tell me what they were unhappy about. instead of, you know, suffer in silence, or worse, telling OTHER people about it and let me hear it from THEIR mouths. during such situations, i would no doubt question your intention.

Anyway, as i was saying, i piss people off without realising it, which is sad. :( so i thought i had pissed him off so much that he hung up on me, which is THE THING I HATE MOST so all of you reading this don't you ever hang up on me!!!

So then i became really depressed. like the sobssobs kinda depressed and started imagining really wild things like oh no my relationship is in tatters now whatdoido whatdoido hehatesmeihatemyselfihatehim i am so mad hmmmmmmmmph!!!

Yeah i know i over-reacted.

But most of the time i think i take issues too lightly.

Ha! but anyhow he didn't hang up on me intentionally. which means he's not mad at me! whew! and we went for a fab dinner the following night. *slurps

I think i'm an acute pain in the ass.

Thanks for ever being so patient with me! teehee :)

don's birthday

Monday, April 03, 2006

Here's an update on don's birthday.

I screwed up!

I always screw up! i screw up 9 out of 10 times! i'm an encouragement for people who can't seem to do things perfectly cos they can't screw up more than i screw up. and poor don was sick on his birthday :(

Firstly i was late. like an hour late. i was perfectly ahead of time when i was waiting for a cab to go back home but i ended up waiting for more than 1/2 hour and i refused to call for a cab. you know how it is when you've already waited for soooo long and you refuse to pay extra to call for one cos you're sure that a damn cab WILL come along very soon but it never did? GAH!! meanwhile it started to pour. GAHGAH!!! i felt so miserable that i finally swallowed my pride and called one. but nobody answered my call! i was kept waiting while listening to the stupid comfort cab commercial repeat like 5 times. GAHGAHGAH!!!!

Ok. that's not the worst part. when the darn cab finally came along, it took me a freakin' 40mins to get home because it was pouring and the highways and tunnels were jammed up. so theoretically speaking, it would have been faster to ride a train home. not to mention 11.375 times cheaper.

Wait!! you haven't reached the worst part yet! i thought even if i was terribly late, at least i could impress him with my 5-star cooking. alas! in my hurry i forgot to bring the herbs that i needed! and i never realised that until i reached his house and my mum called me. DUH!

So panickypanickypanickypan. i was late and i don't have my stuff. in my panic, my mind went blank and forgot details here and there. i couldn't remember whether i was supposed to add salt or soy sauce/fry the spaghetti or not/how much oil to add etc. i accidentally added sesame oil when i intended to add soy sauce, to a batch of spaghetti (which salt was the thing i'm supposed to add, by the way).

So anyway my noodles were, erm, tasteless. BUT i thought the bacon and mushrooms which i fried were quite yummy! except that they were kinda overcooked and it looked like chinese food instead of italian. hmmm. sorry i didn't take any pictures of it cos it's too embarrassing.

I feel so bad :( i told him i'll cook a better one for him again. he hesitated, and said huh are you sure.

Hmmph. i forgave him cos it was his birthday. and i felt bad that i messed up. should've gone to some nice place for a good birthday dinner instead. booooooooo :(

I'm not gonna be a good housewife! not that i want to be but bwahhhhhhh. this sucks more than writing a B grade over an A on my paper.

He showed his appreciation though. heehee. although i'm sure he'll appreciate it more if i'd stop my fruitless attempts to cook.

After dinner we went to catch 2 movies in a row at the new cathy cineplex. i guess somehow it wasn't a very birthdayey birthday cos he paid for everything anyway. gah. i'm such a lousy girlfriend. what the hell.

Oh well.

At least he has me haha that's priceless ;P

You're IRREPLACEABLE :)


ps. oh and i gave him a really cool lamp which... i forgot to take pictures of. i'll try to catch one next time!

pss. oh ya i DID NOT screw up the mudpie afterall, it actually tasted GOOD.
