dorky kid


Listen. does it make sense that the questions for final exam are the same questions for the same exam 2 years ago? and it doesn't help that the questions for the same exam 2 years ago are the same questions for tutorials. NOR does it help that i don't do my tutorials. ok i should have been doing my tutorials. but can you believe this guy!! sets his tutorials AND final exam paper by using the same questions from a past year paper. what happened to being a WORLD CLASS UNIVERSITY?

Half the world is finished with their exams. and the half of the other half are counting down to 1 more day!! or 2 more days!! jiayou!! but i'm like, 4 more days!!!...... hooray. and i'm movin' OUT of hall by the end of the week. can finally get some homecooked food meant for human consumption.

And look! i was bumming around and bummed into this neoprint...

...taken such a long time ago that i can't even remember when. notice the ZERO bodily contact in this picture. gee we were such dorky kids.

This is not a suicidal note

Thursday, April 26, 2007

Hi i feel a little better after a good night's sleep :) yesterday was a bad day. i was angsty. quite some people came to ask me if i was ok. i was ok :) until the person that i dislike very much talked to me very mean-ly :( i was so pissed :( i cried :(

The difference between a real good friend, and not. a good friend will back you up, and encourage you to study hard for exams first before anything else, just like so many people i know. a bad friend only wants to dig through the juicy details. 'nuff said. if what you know is only through FrIeNdStEr, then don't come and talk to me please. even if CoMpLiCaTeD is an intriguing word.

Haiz. and other aspects of my life are disappointing too. and CoMpLiCaTeD too (whatever that means).

How should i get through my life like this?

Life is too difficult.

leave me alone

Wednesday, April 25, 2007

I feel so drained. the old air con in the exam hall was aiming his cold breath directly at me and it's giving me a big fat headache. but it can't compare to the insensitive things people do/say to me. i really very much dislike this person after today. i wish he'd leave me alone :(

I find it very hard to suppress my loathing sometimes. it is one of the 7 deadly sins though. Look!

Wrath (Latin, ira)
Main articles: Wrath (anger, hatred, prejudice, discrimination)

Wrath may be described as inordinate and uncontrolled feelings of hatred and anger. These feelings can manifest as vehement denial of the truth, both to others and in the form of self-denial, impatience with the procedure of law, and the desire to seek revenge outside of the workings of the justice system (such as engaging in vigilantism), fanatical political beliefs, and generally wishing to do evil or harm to others. A modern definition would also include hatred and intolerance towards others for reasons of race or religion, leading to discrimination. The transgressions borne of Wrath are among the most serious, including murder, assault, discrimination, and in extreme cases, genocide. (See Crimes against humanity.) Wrath is the only sin not necessarily associated with selfishness or self interest (although one can of course be wrathful for selfish reasons, such as jealousy). Dante described Wrath as "love of justice perverted to revenge and spite". The wrathful in his Purgatorio were enveloped in blinding smoke.

I'm an angry girrrrrrrrl!! rarrrrrrr!

Hmmhmm. Looking forward to go off to the sun and sea after exams!

let go and move on


YES! pearline is right! tuition teacher yum is always right! quote of the day :" must learn that life doesn't go your way all the time." if you've never tasted failure, you'll never know how success feels like. we need to learn to move on eventually.

Love is like... glass???


Sigh. well. i don't really know why people do such things. i mean, what are you trying to prove, seriously? i know it's on purpose. and it's childish.

And i think a guy is trying to ask me out. but i don't think i should go out with him. cos i'm having exams! hurhur.

But i just finished watching a korean drama amongst exams. yeah don't ask. i just did. the storyline is kind of a cliche. but i really liked the concept. it's about a couple who had been in love for 11 years but drifting apart cos they've started to take each other for granted. on her way to the lawyer's firm for a divorce, the female protagonist was met with a car accident and lost her most recent memory all the way back until when she was 18, which was 11 years ago. that was when she was still in high school, when her current husband was actually her enemy in school. so obviously, she couldn't believe that she had married her high school enemy. but because of that accident and her loss of memory, they got to fall in love with each other all over again. yay!

"I never knew... that love is like glass. It glimmers so brightly, yet so fragile..." ---> the song the song!! so cheesy i know hahaha but it was in korean anyway. the translation would never give justice to the actual lyrics.

Ey. anyway, the story's really sweet. i wish i could lose my memory and forget all the things that made me sad too :(

Tattoos are sexy

Saturday, April 21, 2007

I think tattoos are cool. if i could have a tattoo, i would go for something like that on my shoulder. yeah i know, typical.


Or somewhere on my lower back. but not stars. stars are childish.

Or something fiercer like this.



Or just a subtle one for beach days.


This is the coolest. but again, no stars.


But i'll never get a permanent tattoo cos i'm too fickle a person. check out the amount of accessories that i bought but never worn. i'll get an air-brushed one so that i can erase and re-draw a new one and erase again! isn't that more fun?

More tattoos ahead. anuja dared me to put them up on my blog. poof!








Hahahhahaha i think they're all desperate losers. the last one is actually quite artistic, but desiree says he'll get raped in jail. i had so much fun shopping for tattoos, i put "i got a tattoo :)" as my msn nick. NOBODY believed it's true. i finally got to telling one sympathetic person (the only one who was willing to listen) of my painful tale of tattoo-ing but turned out that he was just patronising me. pooh!

wo shi sun wu kong


Yay i finally had my theatre practical exam in the evening. i thought it went pretty well, except that we all tend to run our lines too fast :) i played the lead Sun Wu Kong! Wahaha can you believe it. but it was also a double role of Wukong and Ben the stupid bratty rebel who only wants to play with his puppets. it reminded me of Toy Factory's Titoudao. i had to be a narrator, a kid, a wayang puppet and a real normal person. haha! it was really fun, i know everyone enjoyed it.

They thought the director's decision to cast me as Wukong was good cos i was "animated" haha er that's good news i guess. not so many comments on acting. the Q & A session wasn't too grilling for me but a lot of questions and doubts were cast towards the director. ey. maybe it was a fortunate thing that i didn't take up directing after all. it would definitely be more challenging and satisfying for a bossy control-freak like me but the preparations were way too time-consuming. and time is not my luxury now :( besides, nobody wanted to be Wukong.

So hooray it's over! i started out acting in hall production for a try-for-fun but turns out that i really liked theatre too :) my theory is lousy though :( i failed my theory test :( :( but i haven't seen anyone who passed anyway. blah.

But a musical is still more fun cos i get to sing and dance :D

OK it's 5am. time to sleep. my normal sleep routine now is 5am-1pm. 8 hours of sleep :) this is so screwed.

Wednesday, April 18, 2007

Wah. it's really true when people say bad news spread fast. initially, only 3 people know leh. or am i too paranoid. that some people seem to be taking advantage of the situation (at least got 3 already). in addition, one friend looked excited about it. ok, one friend, i know it's not your fault. when you're in shit sometimes you wished there's someone in the same shit as you so that you feel better. at least we're in the same shit we can talk shit together. i totally understand.

Oh well.

It's kinda scary. like when people ask i dunno if they heard something from someone so they know something. or they're just asking for politeness. but it's a question that i won't regularly ask people anyway. cos it'll seem like you're hoping for it to happen. i dunno! somehow!

K lah. so now i also don't care if people know. it's just a good topic that people like to chat about i guess. geez.

procrastination post

Friday, April 13, 2007

You know i recall an incident with my friend when we were kids. she felt very sick one day and vomited on the floor in her house. she said her mother was furious and her first reaction was to scold her and make her mop up the floor. i forgot whether she mentioned about going to the doctor's, but i hope she did.

My mum's not that evil. but it's a familiar parenting style that i know a lot of parents here adopt. the same kind who would scold you if you drop your pink swirly lollipop. the same kind who would hit you if you fail a test. they think their children are doing this to them, but they often forget that these children have feelings too.

So what is the point of this entry? to procrastinate from studying.

got brain?

Wednesday, April 11, 2007

Ok. i already think that the people who cook in the kitchen and leave the utensils in the sink, and those who borrow my broom and leave it outside my room with hair and dirt in the dust pan, are the most brainless people in the world. but i found another kind. those who happily leave their barang barang with me just cos i stay on campus, refuse to come back and expect me to bring to them. wtf ok. even though i'm not a princess, i'm not your slave. if you wanna stay over in my room and leave your big heavy bulky stuff here then don't bloody COMPLAIN that you have to come back! when i painfully carried them for you it's cos i was being nice, not cos you can forever take this for granted. is this a very complicated logic to comprehend?? huh!????
Yesterday i was pondering on why i always get physically bullied by big guys. ron koh always poke and push me around and leave pen marks on me. joel koh hurls smelly and chinagirl abuses. (all the koh people!!) zee just hurls random abuses. luckily sunny is normal. anyway, at least when in their normal states they're still very nice to me and not try to walk over me.

Rarrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

And i just discovered that my essay is due tomorrow. not monday, like lishi and i have stubbornly made ourselves believe to be so. i have no time to deal with stupid people.

i'm loved only when i smile


I think i think.... i've been very unhappy. when i think back, i still feel very sad. and hurt. and unhappy. but i'm not allowed to show the slightest of my unhappiness cos i'll simply be ignored and dismissed as throwing a stupid tantrum. when i'm unhappy it's always my fault. i need to apologize cos i had been unhappy.

So i must laugh and smile every minute so that i'll still be loved. so saaaaaaaaaaaaad.

Evoluting lizards


I'm telling you, lizards are gonna rule the world one day.

Big medium small black yellow grey pink white i see them in all sizes, all races, anytime, anywhere. people try to make me feel better by telling me they eat up mosquitoes. but i'd rather see mosquitoes than lizards. those rubbery bodies. those bulging tummies. those sticky tiny five-fingered paws. those beady black eyes. yes lizards bother me a lot. i feel a certain uneasiness in their presence. there are mosquito sprays, rat poison, and even the poison thing you give to a cockroach to make him go home and poison the rest of his clan. how come there are never any lizard control??! an over-population of lizards is happening right now, and we can't afford to sit back and let them destroy millions of years of human civilization.

Not convinced? listen to a personal testimonial. desiree fu, 21 : one day i saw a lizard walking pass with only 2 legs! *they might also be developing bigger brains, narrower jaws and less protruding foreheads. they might even develop a culture.

Do your part. save the human population before it's too late. invent some form of lizard control now!
