nothing in particular.

had cramps for almost the whole day and i tell you its damn horrible. its as if i'm having contractions (not that i know how contractions feel like but its still damn horrible) and so, i just felt like shit. so most of my day was spent in silence (except the part when we are teasing niu lang zhi nu) cos i was in too much pain to talk..ouch.

studied in church with yomay and yiheng after sunday sch today and as you can guess, i felt like a big bright bulb for the whole of the studying session. at least my exams will be done next week so i can leave the two lovebirds to study together instead of me hanging ard being thick skin. on the brighter side of things! i finished studying CM already even tho i'm not very sure whether am i really prepared for my paper tmr...cross my fingers and hope to pass! hohoho!

right now i'm actually glad that the weekend is over cos at least i will feel happier and more normal for the next 5 days before the weekends are here again. plus the fact that i just have to struggle for FIVE more days till the end of exams! muahaha! i'm already dreaming of gengkis khan already! lobster! abalone! sushi! stuff me!!

ah well, heard on the news that huang na is back and osama is dead. oh wait, i got it wrong. huang na is dead *bummer :(* and osama is back *double bummer :(* guess thats alot of bad news in one day. wonder where is osama now..hmm..hope he's no where near our little island. its times like these that i wish that singapore could be just abit more insignificant on the globe. reading up to this point you must be getting bored so i shall stop rambling and shut up.

today.

went church with the intention to study today but ended up not being very productive cos the jalan kukoh pple were singing in one of the rooms and it was very distracting. plus the fact that half the time i'm listening to minwei, donny, cixian and elena talking..so in a way i brought it on myself for not being productive =/

feeling the moodswings coming on strong for this month. its quite horrible cos i can't seem to control it..*hangs head* i guess becos its ard exam period too dat's why its so bad this time round. today was exceptionally bad and it really made me feel damn bleah. suddenly i don't look forward to weekends anymore and tho i know i shouldn't be feeling this way and i shouldn't let that affect me, it still does. i'm only human and i happen to be a very moodswingy human so its doubly horrible. can't wait for my exams to be over and my period to come so i can stop feeling like shit and start feeling happy that i won't have exams for a long long time.

after reading all the above redundant crap, i shall tell you now that i have nothing more i wanna say. *walks away*

tick.tock.tick.tock.

went woodlands library to study with mey today cos i need to copy gbe notes from her. i would say that the 3rd floor of the library is not very conducive for studying (at least to me) cos kids are screaming and running ard..so distracting. went to U2 after that with the intention of exchanging for my 20% voucher but turns out that i'm supposed to present my duplicated copy of the nets receipt(i don't have it) and apparently i have to go back to suntec which is under renovation now to get it. argh. told daphne abt it and she actually went to the U2 website to complain abt it! what would i do without friends like her? hohoho!

oh well, this morning i panicked cos i could not find my gbe notes! thought that i lost em' so i starting searching EVERYWHERE for it! the living room, the fishtank room, my ahma's room and my sister's room but i just couldn't find it! finally after ard 10 mins of searching, i found it on my desk under a sheet of foolscape paper. -_-"
this got me thinking that we are always wasting our time searching everywhere for something when what we want is actually right under our nose. right now you must be thinking that i'm trying to feed you some cliche love philosophy right? NO! i'm actually talking about food! the best is already infront of us, smelling and looking yummylicious but pple out there just refuse to accept that such delicious food is gd for us and starts looking for organic crap that might one day just kill us. soya milk is better than soy milk you health conscious freaks!

i think i have taken my klutzy-ness to new heights already. this morning while i was in the shower, i tried to give my neck a massage but my hand slipped and i ended up clawing myself instead. so right now i have two scratch marks on my neck. i am such a retard.

Fly Away--Corrinne May

"When will you be home?" she asks
As we watch the planes take off
We both know we have no clear answer to where my dreams may lead
She's watched me as i crawled and stumbled
As a child, she was my world
And now to let me go, I know she bleeds, and yet she says to me

You can fly so high
Keep your gaze upon the sky
I'll be praying every step along the way
Even though it breaks my heart to know we'll be so far apart
I love you too much to make you stay
Baby fly away..

Autumn leaves fell into spring time and
SIlver-painted hair
Daddy called one evening saying
"We need you. Please come back"
When I saw her laying in her bed
Fragile as a child
Pale just like an angel taking flight
I held her as I cried

You can fly so high
Keep your gaze upon the sky
I'll be praying every step along the way
Even though it breaks my heart to know we'll be so far apart
I love you too much to make you stay
Baby fly away
ohh...
I love you too much to make you stay
Baby fly away..

brain drain.

law paper is finally over! no longer will i have to identify whether Ms A will get a cause of action against hotel Chulalongkong or restaurant MaleiMaleiHom if they do not protect her from intruders breaking into her room at 3 o'clock in the morning or choking from fishbone found in fishballs! nope! no more of those! and as you can see, i'm a happy happy person.

the paper wasn't that tough i think and i've already vomited out all the relevant facts i can think of and tried to write at a lightning speed of 100 words per minute! even though i was already stunned by the first question and wrote irrelevant things which sound absurd to me now, i can only say that i have indeed done my best! and if i do not at least get a B, i will hate and detest law for the rest of my life.

right now my whole body is aching and i think i deserve a gd rest for the rest of the day before starting revision on my CM! don't even have a teeny weeny bit of confidence in my CM at all so i am just hoping to get a D! if i have to forward this module and face chih wee again, i might just quit school and move to Las Vegas and hopefully, be able to bump into Eric Szmanda and marry him. that's a great idea! i shall start planning that now :) CSI! CSI!

oh ya! Imperial Stars on Ice is coming to singapore for their performance of Sleeping Beauty on Ice starting December 23rd! any takers? its at esplanade and the student price is $45 if i'm not wrong..ahhh..please someone tell me he/she wanna go..it looks really nice! so looking forward to it now :)

while walking home just now, i saw a headless bird on the side of the road surrounded by carnivorous ants eating pieces of it bit by bit. thankfully there aren't any german tourists travelling to this part of singapore or else they might just be appalled by the fact that there IS such a thing called the food chain and sue the singapore travel agency for emotional distress caused by the poor headless bird.

its midweek already!

i've been watching way too much CSI for the past two days..but i don't care! its CSI:Miami tonight and you bet that i'm gonna watch it! tho miami is not as nice as las vegas, and it definitely don't have eye-candy like eric szmanda, i will still be widely entertained by the profound acting of david caruso aka horatio caine.

realised that channel 5 is showing Yes,Dear at 5 o'clock every wednesday! today's episode is the usual greg worrying about sammy not thinking that he's a fun dad and thinking that his son likes jimmy more than him. so he brought the whole family to legoland, sat the rollercoaster with sammy and subsequently puked all over his son. well, that's all you need to know about the show!

today on Iron Chef, as usual iron chef won again. today was iron chef italian competing with another japanese italian chef. the dish today was eggplant! as much as i like eggplant very much, i would prefer meat anyday. so today's match wasn't that exciting plus the fact that i only like watching morimoto and sakai compete. oh well, so much for entertainment.

simpsons was funny tho! today bart got a horse from this funfair and started training up to race! during the first race, the horse only started running after the match was over. ahaha it was so dumb but funny still :p marge got a carnivorous mop which needs constant feeding, homer got cornered by jockeys pretending to be elves and forcing him to lose in the next horce-racing, lisa wrote to president clinton cos she was so angry she lost in a band competition, president clinton went to her hse and declared that he was a bad president. ahh..that's simpsons for you!

today conrad called me and told me that my leave is approved by pan thitsa! woohoo and hooray for me! even tho i have to make up 8 more days for them, i don't care! its worth the effort man and plus, the busier the better! my mind won't get the chance to drift off to lala land ;p

up till this point, i clarify that amidst the crazy tv watching, i STILL studied for my exam tmr! tmr's law and i'm so looking forward to clearing that one. after which i will start to panic and cry everyday hoping that sp will realise the fact that gbe is useless and should not be tested. anyone who agrees with this one raise their hand!

musings.

there are no words to describe the disgust i feel towards fm already. to think that i spent so many days revising and practicing my tutorials and exam papers..argh! feel kinda sad for wong yy already..i bet he will be crying when he's marking my paper..maybe i should send him a box of tissues just in case. theory questions carried quite alot of marks for this paper which half of it i cannot answer! i think i have developed my set of financial management theories which totally don't make sense to me or to anyone for that matter. ah well, at least its over already..i'm sure i won't be able to tell you what is the formula for AFN tmr cos its all going into the box!

today mom made me drank nin jiom ge geng tang TWICE! argh its so horrible! she woke me up early in the morning just to make me drink it..even told me that it will relax me and help me slp better. but i woke up immediately after that cos the taste was so horrible in my mouth i couldn't even fall back to slp already. really hope she stops buying that for me and i hope dat my sis will come back soon so she can share the burden of "nourishing" drinks courtesy of my extremely health conscious parents. i think i'm gonna nosebleed pretty soon at the rate that they are feeding me with magic water.

apart from that, my neck is really bothering me a whole lot these days and it seems to be getting worse even tho i've been apply cream and ointment and sticking all sorts of magical plasters till my skin turned raw. mom says she's gonna bring me to an accupuncturist again later. so not looking forward to having needles stucked into my back :( maybe after rounds of accupuncture, i will be ready to join the next thaipusam.

reading random blog entries now and i really wonder what do foreigners feel when they read the blogs of pple who write like this--> "hi.ferst time to blog.sh0 if it ish nort tat nice.pls sae out hor.*kekez*" can someone please tell me what language is this? cannot imagine someone talking like this. its a nightmare.

nothing.

feeling nothing right now. exams have not even started yet i felt like it has been gg on for very long already. the past few weeks seems like months to me and right now, thoughts are just speeding thru my head without stopping for me to take a breather, without giving me time to register and it's just...gone.

somehow, it seems to me that pple whom i feel can help me when i talk to them ain't helping me at all. its when i think back to those conversations that i feel that maybe i'm not even helping myself too. maybe i'm just too retarded to react fast to changes around me or maybe i am just refusing to acknowledge that things have indeed changed. but on the other hand, there are some whom i never expected, are there to say nonsensical things to me that are actually enlightening in its own crazy way. i think i'm not receptive to normal lingo anymore. fwah? muah? twah? maybe i should stop talking altogether.

enough of depression talk. i'm feeling so hungry right now..ate mac and cheese for lunch today and its not very filling for me. wanted to eat long john silver but daphne didn't wanna buy for me and i'm just too lazy to head down to jp for lunch. i guess its indirectly my own fault. but!! daddy is buying back stingray and sotong! that's something to perk me up! craving for marche now..can't wait for exams to be over so i can eat calamari till i puke.

it never rang.

dumdeedumdeedum.

drinking some horrible stuff that my dad is made for me again..its supposed to be gd for me but right now i don't seem to feel the vitamins and minerals nourishing my beat-up body. *shrugs*

woke up early in the morning for church..nearly couldn't wake up cos i slept quite late last night. was watching some andy lau traid-y show where pple in there chop each other into pieces and no one seemed to care. switched off when i finally got drowsy and went to slp..so whether andy lau got chopped ornot, i have no idea.

anyways, went a.sharon's hse to study today after church with yomay..revised abit more FM and started on GBE..i realised that i totally don't understand GBE. so how i'm gg to pass my exam is still a myth. saw markim at a.sharon's hse too and apparently he really loves to sing and now he is supposedly fei yu qing! haa..so interesting man..maybe he really can be an artist next time, den i will be an artist's friend! :p

today during sermon, i suddenly thought of alot of things and i felt that as much as i missed alot of things from the past, there were really many times that i didn't felt happy cos communication seemed to be a one-way traffic kinda thing. as much as i try to get answers and probe further, it just ain't working and i'm just running into dead-ends. maybe towards the end, it was just attempts to make it work even tho both parties know that its not going anywhere. tho memories are always coming back to me, we both know that this is for the best. and thru this painful experience, i realised that i have neglected alot of things around me and my priorities are all wrong already. its God's way of waking me up and i'm thankful for that :)

ok enuff of boring thoughts! tmr is the final day i can revise my FM already..gonna start on past year papers and HOPEFULLY i am able to do them! this week will be the start of exams already and i tell you! i'm only prepared for THL and FM! what's gonna happen to the other 3 modules, i have absolutely no idea at all.

so what else is new?

today i did what i have been doing for the past week..i studied..FM...AGAIN. still left with chapter 17 which is the chapter i dread the most cos its very tedious to construct the pro-forma table..lets hope that the exam will test us on the income statement instead of balance sheet..*cross fingers* i noe its a very useless thing to say, but i just hope i pass the paper..a C is gd for me..(at least i aimed a C, not a D :p)

oh ya, sp is really taking the 5-day work week seriously man. went to sch to study today to realise that NONE of the foodstalls are open..dont even wanna switch on the lights in the fC..the only pple we saw were the security guards, the cleaning aunties and SOME students..remind me next time to not go back to sch on a saturday.

talking to peihui now..its been a long time since i saw her already..i tink peihui and co. are the ones who made my secondary sch days worth remembering even tho i only got to know them during sec 3..hmm..hardly have a chance to talk to shihui too..doubt i will have the chance now since i'm starting my attachment soon. oh did i mention?! pan thisa wants me to start work on the 8th instead of the 16th..crap. i have to agree to it cos i need the one week break badly to go aussie with my parents..so working one week extra for them will increase the probability of them saying yes to the leave! muahaha!

oh! i ate hakka yong tau foo at this restaurant near church! the food is quite gd i would say! i had abacus, rice wine chicken, fried pork and yong tau foo soup! yum yum! its not very expensive also..less den 35 bucks for 3 pple..no service charge..don't think they charge gst also..so gd rite?! its a must try man! lala!

gonna study with yomay tmr after church...let's hope i will be able to get my FM revision done and start on some exam papers..i'm so behind time already. praying hard that i will be able to understand what i am doing. think i shall go get some work done before bed. its horrible being a student.

its friday already.

i'm starting to feel that my neck is gonna give way soon..i can't even turn my head properly..ouch..suddenly feel that the scary girl in exorcist with the 360degree head turning ability is such a lucky girl. and the fact that i have to keep bending my head when i'm studying is not exactly helping either. =/

lets see lets see..woke up early this morning as usual..went to get FM stuff from daphne at cck..and after that met meiying to study. realised that none of us informed the other two bunnies that we are studying cos she thot that i was gonna do it and i thot she was gonna do it. oh well, we ended up studying on our own..doing lots and lots of FM..and alot of drawing..alot of talking about R4s...and the mrt track..and woodlands, and yishun..and sembawang AND the small one...ahaha :p ahh..its gd to feel motivated to study rite now cos i really can't afford to forward modules next sem.

went for wong yy's makeup lesson today and i would say its not very enriching..cos the class was so noisy and half the time i have no idea which question is he at..so i kinda switched off and started looking thru my own stuff and marveling at my own stupidness. really hope that i will be able to remember the impt stuff when i'm doing my paper..don't have any confidence at all man..i'm so screwed.

enough abt my boring studying crap.

today i realised that the tongue is really a scary thing. i guess its really tough to hold our tongue whenever someone does something we don't agree with..i think many times i have made the same mistake over and over again without realising it but its when we hear such words coming out from the mouth of others that we realised our own shortcomings. i shall learn to be a better person.

keep your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking lies.

back from the hongs.

back from the hongs almost an hour ago..decided to give myself a break and not study until tmr since i did quite alot of FM and TAM today..*proud proud* =p now i'm more familiar with the ytm, bond/stock valuation and of course..rates of return! hohoho! i shall study harder tmr!

today i finally caught a glimpse of living life as a hoNg. the moment i sat down to study, ruth offered me a collection of dark, diary and nuts chocolates! what a great way to start mugging. den jiahao opened a packet of potato chips and offered me too! so i ate that too. not long after, auntie veron gave me..........*drumroll* nope she did not give me unhealthy food, instead she gave me ginseng tea. hahah at least after drinking that i feel healthier! (remember i'm living a healthy life now)

their house is always stocked up with titbits, chocolates and lots of drinks..my home feels damn empty next to them man..tsk. but now i'm proud to say that i have discovered a box of ritz biscuit, a packet of something, oreos and an empty box of kokokrunch courteousy of miss mary toh..miss toh, you finish my kokokrunch nevermind ah..you dun even wanna throw away the box! grrr...

anyways, now i'm having gastric even tho i ate alot of stuff at the hoNgs..maybe the ginseng tea was too strong for me..i'm just not cut out for expensive stuff. blah.

finally another chapter down.

woke up early this morning cos i kept thinking that if i continue slping, i will not have time to study. but instead, i went online and started playing ard with my blog stuff..-_-" went nus library to study yday with daoz..really tried hard to follow directions aldy but still i NEARLY got lost..luckily yomay saved me in the nick of time so i got down at the right stop..wahaha! the bizAd library is really huge man..3 levels all together and its really quiet cos i think not many pple go there cos its quite far out..hmm..oh..saw a cute guy while waiting for the nus bus..but i only got to look at him for awhile den i decided that my legs are too tired to continue standing so i sat down and did not look at him aldy..

i'm quite hyper about healthy lifestyle nowadays y'noe..been gg to the gym with daphne and co. and i tell you! i feel damn motivated to exercise now..really looking forward to the next gym trip. next week after FM paper go gym..any takers? the last trip to the gym, i reached my goal of cycling 2.4km and 2.4km in the threadmill! but i did not actually run tho..i brisk walk on a 6.6! its tiring tho i don't tink its as tough as running..the next trip i will consider jogging..:p

now i'm at ruth's hse studying my FM cos she has the textbook with practice questions..supposed to get the FM qns from daph today but i'm too lazy to go all the way down to cck..will get it from her tmr b4 FM lesson..have to make sure i master pro-forma something by my exams cos i'm sure its coming out and i'm sure its gonna be alot of weightage..*nervous*

right now the hong family is watching Double Happiness while i'm in here updating myself on myself. shall finish studying my TAM by today..left with the last chapter staring at me..after that i shall proceed on to more of risk rates and stock valuation.

wow this is a first.

hey daphne look! i'm here too! :p

used to write in opendiary.com but apparently that site screwed up real bad...deleted almost half of my dear dear entries *grumbles grumbles*..but anyway! its a gd thing also as this marks a new beginning for everything! that diary held alot of memories for me but somehow i feel that its more den a coincidence dat its kinda deleted..at least even if i have the urge to read up on the past, its no longer there for me to read. ah well! the wonders of disasters.

so wad else wad else..? actually told daphne that i don't wanna write again and she was whining that she would't be able to read anymoree. but as a was bathing just now, i just felt like writing again! at least i will be ranting in here and not into someone else's ears and chasing him/her away.

right now i'm supposed to be studying for my final exam and i'm still reading up on law..ahh..its my favourite module now cos its the only module that seem to have a mutual recognition with me =/ even tho DS didn't seem to agree with me during my second year..hoho.. the other modules are just...bleah. so now, i shall not enlighten whoever is reading this with the wonders of casino laws but rather, try to update myself on myself.

can't believe i'm a final year student right now..very soon i will be working in "myanmar" according to meiying...i'm posted to this travel wholesaler called Pan Thisa for my attachment and i tell you, i really worry for my safety. the place, according to reliable sources, is flooded with myanmar workers! argghhh..its like goldenmile all over again! *shudders* really hope that i will be able to learn something from my itp or else my logbook will always be empty OR filled with lines and lines of "i photocopied brochures and pamphlets today..its an exciting experience because you never noe when the machine will break down and start spewing out A4 size papers that shouts 'stop printing!!!' "

its 10am now and technically i have to leave my hse by 1015...so i shall stop being a nuisance for now and go get ready! *tumbles away!*
