Examination Period!

Oh well.. It is the time of the year again where I will be mugging for the rest of the coming 3 weeks or so. And I hate it! My friends are going kayaking this weekend.. Congrats to them. Congrats to myself too, for I will be thinking about how much fun they will have and not concentrate on my books... Shark's Tale premiers today! But I am too broke, too sad, too depressed, too busy to go and watch. Actually it's only the first factor that is hindering me! Oh well... as usual! I think I am going to do so badly for all my modules! Congrats! When I told Mum yesterday that my results are going to be something like C all the way, she stared at me! I think she's expecting me to do as well as I did in Poly. HAha... No way... No more Zs or As... Just Cs... Thank you very much! I cannot wait for the exams to end! I rather spend my time in Orchard Park running around like a crazy woman coordinating performances! There, I don't feel so stress and the bonus is that I get to be in TOWN everyday! Haha... This is what happens when you lock yourself at home everyday studying - YOU GO CRAZY! Actually, I think I am CRAZY all the time!

The Gathering

After such a long period, most of my projects are over!!! Just wanna thank all my friends who have brought so much fun and laughter last night at Pizza Hut. But I thought I was the CLOWN OF THE CIRCUS (Gracia, this is for you)! Now everyone will know that Doremon is acutally RED(ung, ung, ung) and not BLUE. And that Ah bengs can never start an enterprise together. If only we can have so much fun everyday, that would be absoultely great. Like what Gracia said in her blog, T5 rocks! Benjy(the peichun public school white ant and rival) and Chitra(I love the cereal) should have been in T5 instead! Both you are fantastic friends... As for now, let's just do our best for the exams, cross our fingers and hope for the best!

Avoiding the question?

Gracia, Chitra and Sharon.... Please pardon me la... Can I tell you gals after the exams? Haha.. Please. And about me not wearing sleveless shirts? Well, I think I look terrible in them. But you gals are like my best friend, there were a couple of times where she will made me try on clothes I dun usually wear when we go shopping.. I'll try okie? Hee...

Living in 2004

You know you're living in 2004 when... 1. You accidentally enter your password on the microwave. 2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years. 3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of 3. 4. You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you. 5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends and family is that they don't have e-mail addresses. 6. You go home after long days at work you still answer the phone in a business manner. 7. You make phone calls from home, you accidentally dial "9" to get an outside line. 8. You've sat at the same desk for four years and worked for three different companies. 10. You learn about your redundancy on the 11 o'clock news. 11. Your boss doesn't have the ability to do your job. 12. You pull up in your own driveway and use your cell phone to see if anyone is home. 13. Every commercial on television has a website at the bottom of the screen. 14. Leaving the house without your cell phone, which you didn't have the first 20 or 30 (or 60) years of your life, is now a cause for panic and you turn around to go and get it. 15. You get up in the morning and go online before getting your coffee. 16. You start tilting your head sideways to smile. 17. You're reading this and nodding and laughing. 18. Even worse, you know exactly to whom you are going to forward this message. 19. You are too busy to notice there was no #9 on this list. 20. You actually scrolled back up to check that there wasn't a #9 on this list. AND NOW You Are LAUGHING at yourself.

The (almost) Forgotten Past

Sometimes, I wondered why I have done certain things in a certain way in the past. Especially when it comes to matters of the heart... Two person left quite an impression in my life... (1) the only one so far that always (still) make my heart skip a beat when I hear his name or see him (2) the persistent but unsuccessful one They just suddenly appeared on my mind... Be continued soon...

Winds of Change

It is the time of the year again... It is the time again that I start to wonder where I should go from here.. To save anyone who is reading from boredom, I shall just stop after the following sentence. "I am still confused." Change. My polytechnic friends. Most of them are working, some doing their part for the country, some still mugging... No more hanging out at Jupiter Cafe, no more hanging out at the Design canteen trying to catch a glimpse of those rumoured cute guys, no more "see you at the mushroom", no more deciding where to eat (BizPark, Engine or Mensa?)... All changed, all gone. Secondary sch friends. Used to gather once a year at Pasir Ris chalets, used to hang out in the prefects' room all time, used to stay back in school late just for fun. When will we meet again? All came and gone, just like the wind. Primary school mates? Only a handful in contact. Everyone's busy with a lot of other stuff. NO more regular outings, no more thinking about the old times... Hopscotch, five stones, "Dun friend you!" or after school higher chinese extra lessons. Even the building will be gone soon... All came and left and disappeared... Why do people keep looking back and think of the 'good old days'? Why not just stare ahead and think about the 'better future'? I have no idea. Do you? Or maybe it's just me...

Random thoughts

With one project down, I have a few more to go. Please dun ask me to count as I just want to put it at the back of my mind. At least for now. I was just thinking the other day about what other things would I be doing now if I haven't deceided that I want to study. That is when I realise that it would only be working. Boring~~ Most of my good pals are 'working-class' now. Most of them envy me because they rather be in school. I envy them because they seemed more carefree than I am. Building castles in the air used to be my favourite pastime. Now that I am engulfed by schoolwork, it is almost impossible for me to do so. So today, I decided that instead of spending time doing research in the library, I blogged and dreamt about life. I realise I dun really know what I want in life. I almost have no direction whatsoever. After 'O's, i debated whether to go Poly or JC and finally decided to Poly instead as I have heard how much fun it would be. Before admission,I thought about what course to take in poly for almost as long as I am allowed to before the deadline. Hospitality or Tourism or Biomedical or Business. I choose business in the end because i thought it is less specalised and easier to find a job. Come Poly year 1 end, I am suppose to choose my so called major. Business was too general and logistics & operations management was too mathematical so I choose marketing - just crap your way through I thought. Then after poly, I wondered where to go next. While surfing the net one day, i stumbled upon the NTU and NUS website and realise that they are opened for registration. I decided to register for fun. $15 isn't that unaffordable. Communication studies was my 1st choice for NTU because I heard it's quite a popular course with small intake and wanted to try my luck. Arts and social sciences for NUS for no apparent reason. Just wanted to fill in the fields to make my $15 worth. And I got in. Now, I dunno what I'm doing here. Communciation studies isn't something that I thought I would ever do. Oh well.. I just run through the 4 years and see what the future may be for me. See? No direction at all. I want to be everything.. I want to experience all sort of things. Probably I'll just be a jack of all trades and master of none. I dun care... As long as I know I am happy, my family's contented and my friends hang out with me. Come on life! Show me who you are!
