yencilbox.
earlier as i was reading up on my depression article, i realised that if i really do go overseas to study in the future, i might get end up getting depression man. morbid as it sounds but even here at home, i do feel the drop in mood when the sunsets. talk about seasonal depression.haha. if the blogging assignment is for abnormal psych i might just ace it. laughs. i should probably go find out which part of the brain is responsible for obsessive broodings. i'm guessing its the frontal lobe cos thats the part responsible for ocd. not that i have ocd. i'm just saying.
since we're on the topic of ocd, allow me to entertain you with a patient's story in my textbook. i cannot remember his name so i shall call him Mr M. (they always alphabetize them in the textbook anyway). Mr M. has a long history of ocd and that eventually led to depression cos he was frustrated that he couldnt control his obsession. so one day he decided to kill himself by sticking a gun into his mouth. but instead of killing himself, he shot through the roof of his mouth and into his brain, hitting the frontal lobe and lesioning away the
exact part of the brain that causes ocd. and he was cured. and he didnt die. thats uber amazing i say! i'm guessing the physical damage wouldn't be pretty but what the heck man he's cured! and thats the story of Mr M.
anw, socialpsych lecture today was painfully long. and i'm not even saying mental pain, it became physical pain. spent 3 hrs going through what we've already learnt in yr1 intro to psych1 and i'm guessing we took an even longer time today. was so tempted to siam during break but resisted it and got hated by cynthia.suffice to say she was in more pain than me.hahaha. thankGod i was sitting next to her..totally saved my life in more aspects than one. for you who've read till thus far, i can't believe you read all the way through cos i'm basically just rambling and needed something to do to take my mind off anal thoughts. was supposed to go slp it off but its almost 1 and i'm feeling wide awake. think i'll go play sims2 for abit. -walks away-
oh p/s: i've a yellowpencilbox courtesy of tianping and its uber bright. i shall ignore the fact that its acs colours and just embrace the yellowness of it. hahaha. i love my yencilbox!

hawkertalks and faberwalks.
whoa my last post was on the 14 jan. what a happy date. -grins-
anyhoo, apologise for the disappearance not that many people actually check on my updates.haha. one semester's gone and another one's starting in two days time but thanks to the admin screwup, we start wednesday instead of today! allowing more me-time to eat pineapple tarts and blog boring entries. exams went by with much stress and hair pulling but i can say i've done all i could practically and possibly do. come to think of it i actually slept more this time round than the last exam i had. hmm. just praying hard that i'll D my stats man. apparently most people came out of the examhall with pale looks and chantings of 'diediedie' so i'm hoping moderation will favour me. ahh.
the cruise trip last week was goood! didnt really do much stuff cept to eat, sleep, read, mahjong, eat, sleep, read, mahjong..and repeat hell loads of times. oh ya add in constipation. i concluded that its the cold air onboard that caused the..uh..blockage. they seriously blast the aircon like free man so its either too hot outside, or its too cold inside. remind me to bring longs the next time i go again. on other news, the weather in phuket was so hot tho twas a miracle we didnt get heatstroke. dont understand how those caucasians over there could walk around all day topless. its kinda disturbing at first but u get habituated when they start swarming the streets. ahwell.
chinese new year as usual passed without much exciting happenings. christine and dawn both popped their babies before the newyear its a shame we couldnt see them. guess by the time i get to see them again christmas, their babies would prolly be crawling already. but its okay man as much as i'm dreading the new semester and the truckload of work thats gonna come along with it, i'm willing for the clock to tick faster so the weeks will speed by. right now i'm just gonna be contented with playing simple computer games like ravenhearst, slow days watching tv on the couch, long walks and therapeutic bus rides.
dingding! in preparation for the crazy sem's thats bestowed upon us for the next 3months, we're gonna have a major shindig session at cynthia's tomorrow! movies! pizzas! twisties! calbee! cant wait man her couch is so comfortable i'll love to bring it home. actually her house is so pretty i'll love to bring that home too. =P right now i'm on a quest to gain some kilos so i'll not be thrown out of the next blood donation drive for being underweight. cruise made me a kg heavier! hope the new semester wont take that away. gargg.
