End of Year 2 Sem 1 exams and PLUTO!!

Rambling post about today...

End of exams: EXAMS ARE FINALLY OVER!!! Yeppiez!! =D Anywayz, I tried my best for these exams (save for the E-commerce module which I screwed up cause I mixed up my facts) and although it's not perfect, I hope I managed to redeem what little I could ^^;; *prays that my results aren't rock-bottom* Guess all I have to do now is wait for the results.

K-box: Went to the K-Box for the first time today after mi exam and meeting... And well. Hm. I expected the horrible state I got into... The total inability to choose songs, and the horrible out-of-tune singing for like at least a good half of them. But ANYWAY, that aside, it was fun!! We kind of ran out of songs after a while and started playing stupid songs like "How much is that doggie at the window" (followed by barks from us), "Do-Re-Mi" and... ya. Hm. ^^;; Talk about a lack of childhood. Ah well. But it was fun ;)

But next time...? I'm writing a list of songs that I know down and going in there prepared >_< Lack of time this time. Gah. Ah well.

Banging into people: Okkayy... We banged into a lot of people today... Like that whole bunch of MIT people (or rather, my ex-classmates) and... ya. Attracted a lot of attention when they started screaming and stuff @.@ Gosh. Then banged into our dear MIT (ex-)president at PS. Hm.

Arcade: Okay... We entered the arcade with the intention of dancing the DDR... I myself was rather riled up about it. But when we got to the machine, this other girl started to dance. So we stepped back and watched.

... And guess what? She danced a double! (Meaning that she danced with all 8 arrows instead of 4) After looking at her dance one song, we just got really demoralised and decided not to dance anymore... ^^;; Ah well. Maybe next time, when it's not a Friday night and all. And perhaps not at that place if we see that girl anywhere in the vicinity. ^^;;

Pluto: AND HOW ON EARTH CAN THEY REVOKE PLUTO'S STATUS AS A PLANET??!! That's utterly... atrocious! Gah. Aggravating. I don't understand why they would suddenly do that. I mean, it's been accepted as a planet for a good 75 years and you suddenly come up and say "No, Pluto's not a planet. Not anymore, at least." Like we were happy with it being a planet, thank you.

Meddlesome creatures.

Thanks and Gratitudes

Okay, this is really just a thanking post.

Exams and MSTs: *coughs* Hm. For this section, I have like a million people to thank for encouraging me and slapping me back into reality. Especially for the latter, and for chasing me offline whenever I went on.

Manda: For constantly reminding me about my exams, looking out for me... and of course, for scolding me everytime I went off tangent ^-^ And especially for the SMS that knocked sense into me during my MST. And for the guilt trips whenever I didn't study.

Clar: For the unlimited supply of good luck and agreeing to chase me offline, and of course, for the encouragement. And for listening to me ramble and go crazy whenever I get too stressed, especially during MST period. And yeah, calling once to talk, and not minding whenever I just konked off to sleep in the middle of typing a reply sms.

William: Heh, for keeping track of my exams (^^;;) and constantly chasing me offline to go study and for encouragement. It worked really well. =)

Jon: For all the slaps back to reality >_< Especially during project time. And for answering to my panic calls ^^;;

Gary: Okay, he's not going to be seeing this, but still gonna thank him anyways. For reminding me of my goals, and that it's the last stretch. And yeah, for the good luck.

Past flame: Okay, I'm not sure if many of you know/remember... but there was this one time last year when someone came to flame me on my board. Two people scolded that person and spoke up for me. You guys know who you are, and I know it's a little late... but thanks ^_^ It was much appreciated. It stopped me from scolding that person too ^^;;

Belated Cosfest 06 ramble

Hm, this post is ALL about cosplay so... Read on at your own risk! Oh ya! Fangirl alert! =P Don't say I didn't warn you!

Cosfest: Gosh, okay, this is like a REALLY belated cosfest ramble... but GOSH THE KADAJ FROM LAST YEAR WAS THERE AGAIN!!! *fangirls* O.M.G. I can't believe it. Like the REALLY cool one with the nice hair and the ULTRA COOL poses and stuff!! AND THE SWORD TOO!! *dies* Wah!! If only I was there with manda or SOMEBODY or if I was even there... I'd make sure I stalk her and snap a dozen million photos!! GOSH!

Crap. >_< Okok... I'm like over-reacting... But the new Kadaj and gang that came out looked kinda sucky... Saw the photos on youtube... Realised I missed so much. Hm. Bishies should be done by bishies, or bishie girls. And there was a Cloud that held all the swords!!! =o Like the amount of money he must have spent on props man.

Gosh, darn cool. Sigh... Sad I had to miss it again this year... =( At least there's still the usual end-of-year to look forward to. This time, I'm SO gonna be prepared... And my group~ =) Heh. Just hope that I don't feel out of place.

Back to study: Wah. I wonder what happened to studying... >_< Shall take my leave now.

Drifting apart and low on cash. And Japanese.

Okay, I seriously should be studying right now... Especially when this is the last stretch... but... Err.. *coughs* Warning: Random japanese at the end of the entry.

Drifting: Erm, well. I'll be going out with my ex-neighbour soon... Like the day before I leave for Hong Kong, but... well. I can't help but feel like we've drifted apart... It seems like the very edge of whether we can remain as good friends or not. I remember mentioning to someone that a lot of effort must be put in in order to maintain friendships... especially those you wish to keep forever. I'm afraid I haven't done so for this one...

Anyway, I suppose there's still time to try and save it... So I guess I'll try my best to from now on... After her exams end, I guess. Gosh. So little time >_<

Broke: Been spending a lot recently, I've noticed. But I suppose that's all my own fault... So... Ah well. Come September, I forsee my financial status going in the negative. That whole buncha birthdays and activities and such... and not to mention the HK trip...! (Okay, then again, maybe that's not counted since that cash isn't coming from what I have on hand) *sighs* Will see how it goes... If only the cash I earned virtually through the stock exchange game could be real... ^^;; If only.

Anyone have any idea what you can do without the use of money save for window shopping? o.O

Surpise: Hm. I'm quite surprised at the number of people who actually know of this blog =S Err... Most I would suppose got my link from somewhere else... But ah well.

Okay, this was a really random post. Will get back to studying. Good luck to all those having their exams too and to those whose Prelims are coming up (although that's like a month away...) Yepz.

Cycling and Fireworks, happily sick ^^

Warning: Gonna ramble~

Yest: Yepz, had a fun day out yest, though you probably don't need to know... so if you wish to skip this, please do skip this entry.

Cycling: Okay, went cycling yesterday~ Haven't done so in... not sure how long... but it hasn't been very recent the last time I went cycling, from what I remember (or rather, cannot remember) Anywayz, it was really fun ^^ Loved it when I was at the top of the slope, and just stop cycling totally, and let gravity pull the bicycle down. All I had to do was control the direction it was going in. ^^

Did a lot of other stupid things too along the way... ^^;; Like cycling past the bicycle kiosk when we were supposed to return our bikes, and riding off countless times when the stand was still down >_< Was taught how to use the bicycle gears too~ ^^ Don't think I ever knew of their existance... When my partner commented on someone who "didn't change the gear properly", I was like... "What gear?" ^^;; And promptly made a fool of myself. Ah well. Guess we learn something new everyday ^^

Met manda: Okay, we had this misunderstanding... We talked about meeting near a bicycle kiosk... but apparently the bicycle kiosk I was talking about and the one she was talking about were at different ends ^^;;; *coughs* So... Ah well... Didn't manage to meet her for long... but it was nice seeing her again =^^= Such a long time since I last did... >_<

Fireworks: I don't think I've really seen fireworks before... but ya. It was the first time I deliberately went to go look at fireworks, and it was really nice =) Save for the stupid photographer in front of me who kept thrusting his head into the empty space I had to watch the fireworks >_< So I kinda felt sadistically satisfied when I saw the small kid ruin his picture when she swung her lightstick around in the way of his phototaking... ^^;;

The moon was really nice too~ (I spent about half an hour staring at the moon while waiting for the fireworks to start) And well, I hadta tiptoe a couple of times (albeit with Clar's help) to see the fireworks when the dumb guy in front of me stood in the way >_< But by golly, it was really good ^^

DDR: Played with Clarence~ Only 2 and a half miserable rounds (half cause we shared one round when the adding coins thing screwed up) but it was really fun~ ^^ Drank loads of water and jumped a lot and got our legs numb. ^^ The next time, I'm so gonna allocate more time to the arcade for playing, and make sure it's not just after a meal >_< But that'll havta wait after the exams~

Exams: Speaking about exams...... I really should be starting to study... But... Sigh. They start in exactly 8 days from now, and... well. Wish me luck! ^^;;;

Rolling, rolling, rolling...

A man rolls down the slope,
his body turning over and over
and over.

His head spins along with his turns
moving faster and faster
and with greater intensity.

his initial smile
Breaks
periodically
to contain his nausea,

and a voice chides him
for his Inability
to control his speed and
Increasing fear.

But he can only roll on,
and Wait
for the Ride
to stop.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Okay, here's my blog entry! ^^;;

Assignments: Okay, I still have like a ton of assignments due soon... the one I'm panicking most about being the one due this Tuesday... I hardly understand the topic and well... Ya. I forced myself out of the mood early this morning to go sleep, and now I can't get back on track. Gah. >_< Shtupid me.

Lack of sleep: For the past couple of days, I've been sleeping and waking to do a wee bit of work, and then sleeping again. Which meant that I kept sleeping with my glasses on and my lappy, light and everything else switched on. I think I'll have to control my sleeping/working habits a little better from now on...

Birthdays: Hm. Here I thought that most of the birthdays I know occured in September (like Clar, 'Man, Momo, Deone etc)... but over the past few days I've received birthday alarms for 4 people already =S Like... Whaaa??? >_< Not that I'd attend to all of them, but still... Gah. Ah well.

Confidence: Okay, I've just been told by my teammates that I need to be more authoritative, and by my lecturer (to my mum) that I give the impression that I have no confidence. So I need to be more agressive, my mum concluded. Errr.... Like, huh??? >_< Okay... some guy from my class last year told me that a couple of people saw me as 'arrogant' and 'selfish', but I felt (though it's quite mean) that they were the ones being selfish when they gave that conclusion... I don't know what to believe though. Yes, the confidence thing I've noticed too... but I'm pretty much an introvert... so... Not that easy... -_-"

Poly 50 & stupid buses

Another rambling entry... ...

Poly 50: Okay, I went to help out at the relay event in my school today... It's called Poly 50. Don't ask me why, it just is. Anyway, we were supposed to help keep the non-running participants behind the boundaries... and only one runner per team (like there were a hundred teams) on the road. Some _stupid_ idiots kept staying on the road... Even the lecturers! I kept walking back and forth repeating "Sorry, can you please move back a little? Thank you." Like gawd-knows-how-many-times that I got semi tired of it.

Stupidity: And it didn't help that some of my lecturers were running too, so I didn't dare to tell them off, and that some _other_ helpers were like standing in the middle of the road at the beginning of the line and blocking the other runners, thereby encouraging the next runners to move forward. HELLO!!! USE YOUR BRAIN!! Even _I'M_ not that stupid. -_-" You block them, so they move forward to see their runners, people behind can't see and they move forward too... Lo and behold, we get major congestion. What brilliance. ......What stupidity.

I tried to ask them as nicely as I could to move back too, and they told me, "it doesn't make a difference la." Oh, right. Then explain to me why it is the moment you guys left I successfully pushed the runners back? *raises eyebrows* Like... Hm. I'm _sure_ it didn't make a difference. -_-"

Bus' GCS: Okay, is that satellite thingy called the GCS? The one used in our buses now too to detect when the bus is at the bus stop? Yeah, anyway, that thing is screwed. So much for "you can tap 100m away from your alighting bus stop". The door was open at my bus stop and the thing still had that error sign...! And this is not the first time. The first few times I saw that, I just smirked and hopped off without bothering to take my EZ-link out. This time, my EZ-link was already out, and I was about to tap. I stared at the dumb device for a couple of seconds after the door opened (I was the only one alighting), placed the card on top of the sensor (which obviously didn't work, nor help) and then just couldn't be bothered and alighted. The bus driver didn't even do anything.

Sigh. So much for technology.

Assignments: Great. 1 assignment due tomorrow, another due friday, 1 test next week, 3 assignments due the week after, another 1 assignment due the week after that... and then it's exams... Considering I haven't done anything _but_ the one due tomorrow...? I'm screwed. It sounds much scarier than I thought it was now that I say it like that... Screwed up one subject utterly. Hope I can remedy that soon... 60% of assignment marks gone for one subject already... Guess all I can do is pray or something... Wish me luck!!

Unlucky or stupid? Or perhaps a combination of both?

Unlucky: Hm, let's see... My lucky keychain broke about 2 days ago... (The Satoshi one with a wing at the bottom) My earpiece fell apart yesterday (So I can't use it anymore), and guess what? My bag broke today!! If things go on at this rate I won't dare to bring my lappy to school anymore in case _that's_ the next thing that breaks =S I'd cry if that happens... But for now, I have no choice 'cause of the ton of assignments coming up... *hopes and prays nothing happens to my lappy*

Stupid: Okay, today I was in a big rush... Cause I had to rush to a briefing after my classes, afterwhich I had to run to dance. I switched my laptop off, and then closed it to allow it to shutdown on its own, before going going to my next destination... When I reached home after my entire day, I realised that it hadn't shut down because something hanged. As a result, my poor laptop was roasting.

I almost panicked, but I realised it was still okay, so... ^^;; Guess the good thing is that I managed to deplete my laptop's battery... Which was something I was supposed to be doing soon... So at least that saved me some trouble... Erm, I just hope I didn't shorten my laptop's life as a result..... =S

Ton of work: Okay, I have like 3 assignments due next week... On Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. And I've got to help out at some dumb event after school on Wednesday. Like, crap. I. Am. So. Dead. *Sighs* I guess with good things come bad things... Or maybe it's just my lack of control and discipline... =S

Knowing someone: I had this conversation with someone a couple days back about how much you know a person... I always thought that the length of time would hold some kind of weight. Apparently it does, but very minimal. I was thinking about someone I only knew for a month or so... And was wondering how it was possible that I could grow so close to that person during the course of only a month... Then I realised that it isn't the length of time that matters, but how much you know about that person.

Trust holds a really critical role in relationships, I realise. It is either given over time (like how I gave mine to 'manda and Skye), or given at risk in the beginning. Either way it is that trust and how much about that person you know that defines the relationship. I'm not even sure if I'm making sense here... but that's what I thought. Anyone with comments about this?

Chicken rice: Okay, this is ultra random... but I've been wanting to say this for some time... THE CHICKEN RICE AT TIONG BAHRU PLAZA ROCKS!! Heheh... Yeah. I think I've fallen in love with it. ;)

Conversation and Movies

Okay, a lot of things happened... but as usual, when I don't write them down they all fly outta my head... so... I shan't be blogging about those stuff...

Tests and Assignments: Okay, thank goodness for the end of exams... But I'm dreading getting my results back... I mean, if I get really bad... I have no idea what I'm gonna do... It's come to this point where I'm quite ready to give this semester up... but I know I can't. Now I've got to face my assignments... And I'm not really in the mood to be doing them either. Gah. Am I screwed or what?

Overheard conversation: Okay, I heard this conversation the other day between 2 girls... and apparently about this other guy called 'Matthew' (not his real name). I'm sure this is not the full conversation nor the exact words cause I was too busy balking to have heard the entire thing... I have no idea what to name the girls, so 'Girl A' and 'Girl B' will have to suffice. Conversation starts off with Girl A.

"Hey, so how'd it go?"
"How did what go?"
"You know, just now."
"Huh? Nothing?"
Girl A laughed.
"Were we that obvious?"
"I could tell he was interested in you."
"What??"
"So it's true then?"
"Err, kind of."
"He doesn't seem that bad. You could give him a try."

Okay, this is where I stopped listening to the conversation. Like since when could someone tell another what to do in a relationship without knowing anything? Like, WHAT? Girl A doesn't seem to know anything about that Matthew guy and yet she can tell her friend to accept him. That's just... so weird. Isn't a relationship about something _between_ two people? And not how one person looks and whatever else? Like since when can you dictate what someone should feel from a one-time encounter?

Alright, I don't even know if I'm making sense... But it kinda got me somewhat irritated... I'm just glad my close friends aren't like that. *shudders* Scary...

Movies: Darn, I'm getting super excited over 'King and the Clown' after hearing about stuff from 'manda. Gosh, it seems like an ultra nice show (though I know I shouldn't be getting my hopes up too high lest I get let down) and I _so_ can't wait to watch it next Sat. And I'm going to watch Pirates with parts of the rhombus soon too... This is good, and bad, cause I'm getting so excited over them I'm promptly forgetting that I have something called 'School', and 'Assignments'. Hm.

Distraction galore

Okay, I wasn't supposed to blog, I really wasn't. Much less about this nonsensical... Nonsense. But the urge just came on... so...

Good mood?: Came across a lot of stupid people today that would have gotten me kinda irritated usually... but I just laughed internally. Which is... WEIRD. I'm feeling extremely disturbed about it all...

Distracted: As you can see, that's mainly the reason why I'm here blogging and not studying when I have an exam tomorrow which I've not even studied one chapter of!! I've been at the same chapter since I came back home today... I'm. So. Screwed.

Embarassment: Okay, is it possible to spontaneously combust from embarassment? =S Oddly enough, I seem to think that possible... >_<

Okay, I'm not supposed to be blogging... So I shall go back to studying.

KHK and brain switched off

KHK: Very, extremely entertaining~ ^^ Skye was like so nervous in the beginning!! =S I was like down (or up) there thinking to myself, "Come on Skye, you can do it. I know you can. Stop freaking out...!" Turned out alright. ^^;; I remember that happening before too. Somehow or another.

Something that would have got me on low spirits just didn't penetrate through today... That is, I met a lot of familiar faces and people I know, and I'm sure they know me too...? But none talked to me, save for Senti. And my 'imouto'. Ah well.

Brainless: Okay, I can officially say that my head has gone on holiday. -_-" And to think that the tests are just 2 days away... Gosh. Need to finish studying...

Random stuff: Yes, I know I've never posted a video... but I thought this was rather cool. Like... wow. It'd be fun running around a country like that:



I am out of time so I shall end here.

World Cup, and reminiscing

Rambling post...

Wasted time: Okay, I was supposed to be studying and finishing my security module... And I ended up digging up past stuff and looking through them till like about 4+. Found something that was given to me in P6 during my birthday, and a letter together with it. The person made it clear that I pissed her off all the time, but she didn't not like me. The paper was falling apart. Made me think back.

They probably don't know this, but no matter how they didn't like me in the beginning, we managed to become friends after some time, and they were the ones who broke my irritating outside... The entire Anime group.... And I'm extremely grateful for that. They were, what, the first few true friends I really made in primary school. Yes, extremely pathetic, I know, having only made proper friends in P5/P6. They're one bunch I'll never forget.

Tarot cards: Okay, spent some time playing with my tarot cards this afternoon... And just now. My cards seem to be teasing me or something... Like when I asked a question, thinking that I already know the answer, but I just want to ask anyway, it gave me replies that indirectly meant "If you know it already why ask?" 3 times in a row -_-" Geez. Weird things happen when I'm supposed to be studying. This time, I've gotten back on my tarot card craze.

KHK tmr: Kouhaku (red-white song battle) tomorrow!! Yes, it'll be my first time going after like what, 4 years? =S Will be dragging someone with me and supporting Skye! This is going to be so fun.

Met Momo: Yes, gosh, missed her... Although I was only with her for slightly over an hour, it was nice. Catching up and all that. And I finally stepped into a neoprint shop again after what, a year? =D Sharing flowers with her for Skye even though she can't make it... ^^;;

Soccer craze: Apparently Momo follows some matches too- Those with the Japan team, of course. She told me about stuff and it felt so normal to be talking to her about soccer even though I don't follow it. It's probably cause she really was supporting a team. We talked about stuff and agreed on one thing: It's really sad how many Singaporeans don't actually support the teams... but follow the World Cup for betting.

I feel that strongly in school. Like everyone around me seems to be betting on the matches... And I only hear a rare few who really support a particular team. Zero-people seem to be talking about the action or about support. All I've been hearing is results, results, results, and "Stupid la, if only they made one more goal!". If my close friends say that I think I can safely infer that it was a close match between their favourite team and another, but since it's not... they mean, "Darn, I betted 3-1 and they scored 2-1." -_-" Riight. Ah well. It's extremely sad, though... So much for the World Cup.

Mirror half and talk with manda & Sugino

I look into the eyes in the mirror
Filled with fear.
Its usual cheer
Devoured by his other half.

The gaze
Burns me
And I look away

To soothe the flames
That erupted in my head.

I feel the pain,
I feel the hesitance,
I feel the hope.

Yet none of this
Is mine.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 'poem': Just so you know, that doesn't reflect my current situation ^^;; Don't ask why I suddenly put that up, I don't know >_<

Stuff: Just had a nice talk with 'manda, and everything feels so much better now =) Screw everything. I'll take things one step at a time.

Talk with my doc: A trip to the doctor's a few days ago ended as some kind of sharing session. My world is protected now, she said. When I go out into the 'real' world, I may suffer from shock or something of the like, and when that happens, I can go look for her. Hm. Protected, yes.

I know this is utterly different from what she meant, but I think I'm really really lucky to have my current great friends and... well, stuff. It's just really sweet when I feel the protectiveness radiating off sometimes.

Fathers' Day: I think I can safely say that none of you here are fathers, but Happy Fathers' Day all the same. ^^

What?: Okay, I actually had loads to say, but everything's staying in my mind as overlapping emotions and random words that refuse to take form, so... I shall just leave this as that.

Rationality and Computron

Rationality: Screw what I said a few days ago. Rationality has been thrown out the window, or ignored. -_-"

Turbo: Everything seems to have been going in turbo-mode the past few weeks... and it seems so long although it's only been such a short time. Like, too many things have happened. That is, only in certain aspects. I look at my assignments and it's different though. In that case everything seems to have zoomed by like a rocket. Everything's still untouched. I. NEED. To. Start. Concentrating.

Yes, 'manda, I know I ought to be slapped.

Computron: Yepz, second round and finals today. It was extremely fun to see the finalists battle it out. The secondary school kids were like fighting a war, the JC guys were better, and more coherent, and the tertiary people were... well. Amusing and like... Whoa. Glad to say the 'whoa' came from my buddy-classmate's group (which got first), and the SIM group. Err, amusing group was also from SP though ^^ That group went in the third round of the finals with err, 7(?) points and and came out with 0. On the dot. And there we were, worrying that they would emerge with negative points ^^;;

But even though they were amusing and cute, I still have to say that they weren't as silly as we thought, considering that they understood most of the questions that I went 'what?' at. Like, what's a binary tree with root 1? Huh?? Binary tree? All I could think of was a tree drawn with 1s and 0s. -_-" They got the answer half right, but points weren't awarded unless you get the full answer, so... Ah well.

On the contrary: The first round for the secondary school kids was like... super stupid. E.g.

What's a Desktop?
a) The display area
b) The area around the monitor

Erm, I forgot options c and d cause I think I was too busy laughing ^^;; And... Which of the following has the most space? RAM, floppy disk, CD, DVD, hard drive? Like... DUH I'm sure we've got a floppy disk in gigabytes >_<

Okay, enough rambling for today.

Silent Hill and Boat Quay

Fishes: Okay, like err, I don't believe I've 'fish'ed this many times in 2 days before... Fished at least a million times yesterday because of my onslaught of gastric, and another million times today when I sent an sms to the subject of a message instead of the intended recipient. Gosh, _that_ was embarassing. -_-" Fished my entire way home after that.

Silent Hill plot: Okay, went to watch the movie, but err, the grossly pictures grossed me out. Let's just say 20 minutes into the movie I suddenly remembered why I don't watch horror movies. My asthma. Like, gosh, how can one forget about something like that??? -_-" Dumb people do that, apparently. But it didn't turn out bad. It was quite sad, but alright. Not really that shocking, like the kind that has stuff jumping out at you. This had a bit more of a dumb plot.

Fav character: Oh, and the character I liked died. -_-" Happens all the time doesn't it. Oh, thank you so much. For goodness sake, she was like, intelligent and sweet! Why do they _always_ have to kill those nice characters off? Still think that she and the main character would look really cute together, but perhaps that's just me. But she is really cool. Too good for the main character actually. She actually died for the main character!! And her famous line, though filled with a bit of vulgarity, sounded really cute coming from her =P

Main character: But the main character of the show was like ultra dumb. The dumbest person I have ever seen actually. If I could I would have thrown something at her and made sure I aimed for her head. HELLO like there's supposed to be _something_ in that skull of yours!! What did you do to it, throw it out the window before the movie started?? -_-" Gosh.

Others: Yeah, well, other stuff happened today too, but I shan't blog about those. Let's just say Boat Quay looks rather nice when the lights come on and it's a really good place to talk. And hear soccer fans screaming their lungs out.

ECP and Fog's cleared

East Coast Park: Yepz, went to ECP to roller blade with Clarence... Like, yeah! The last time I went was with Deone, before Poly started. As usual, it took me a short while before I remembered how to blade, but it came faster than usual ^^;; 'Twas Clarence's first time blading, so we were like stumbling together in the beginning when I was still trying to remember how to blade... Then he just got better and better. ^_^ So anyway, it went like really well, and I used my cam to take lots of photos... The videos, for some reason or another, just doesn't work on my com though. -_-"

Fish and co: Ate there for the first time that day... Okay, if your jaw has just dropped, please pick it back up, I'm sure it's unbecoming. >_< Yep, ex, as I thought. But the fish was good- Guess that's why they're called 'Fish and co' ^^;; *coughs* Although I think I kept stepping on Clarence's toe =s Like, halfway through a conversation he suddenly said, "that's my toe". Gosh, and there I was happily tapping my foot against what I thought was the ground =S Wah.

Oh, and they had these weird gunnysack things hanging from the ceilings that I only noticed after I finished eating, and it was so tempting to just stand up and squeeze the gunnysacks to see what was in it. Paper? Cotton wool? Or perhaps their rubbish? Hm. It'll have to remain a mystery until I get the chance to kidnap one or something.

Skye and 'man: The fog has cleared, like finally!! Skye, thanks for listening to me =) I get what you mean, and it's processed now (not that you'll see this), and 'man? I'm glad you're back =D

Rationality: Okay, I don't know whether or not I hate my sense of rationality. Sure, there are times when it's just thrown out the window. But if I try hard enough, it comes back in about 2 days or so -_-" It's supposed to be good right? But I can't help feeling somewhat... I dunno, regretful about it all. Cause once it takes control... I don't know, sometimes it feels more like the 'shunning' part of me returns. Everything turns numb. And I don't exactly enjoy being numb.

Rose and air-con

Random post.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The air-con switches itself on,
And I feel the cold air rush in,
Its icy-cold wings spreading themselves around me.

The switch is un-locatable,
And my limbs s l o w l y
Start to freeze.

"Are you alright?"
I hear a voice-
And yet the damned smile spreads and I nod.

No one notices,
Or even feels the cold,
And yet
I continue to freeze,
The ice-cold seeping into my bones.

I hope fervently
for the warmth they feel to spread
to my numbing limbs,
though I know it futile.

As the machine runs on,
Past efforts to recover
Slip past my conscience.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rose: Heheh... someone showed me this link to a video and a guide on how to create paper roses... If any of you guys are interested, the link's http://www.wikihow.com/Fold-a-Paper-Rose and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZnhMl85dq4. After I created it I took some photos and looked at them... One particular photo reminded me of the love rhombus for some odd reason... So I just took the photo and splashed one line on ^^;; Yepz, here it is, for the love rhombus (though probably only 1 of you guys will see it here):




Missing you guys.

Roller Coaster and Computron

Let me first warn you this: I'm not in the right train of mind, utter random nonsense up ahead so... read on at your own risk!

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

Up and up and up... and
Whoooooosssh down with a sharp right turn.

Up and down, up and down,
another few more unexpected turns and
a 360-degree flip.

Exhiliration mixes with increasing nausea
As the ride goes on,
and yet
I refuse to get off it.

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

???: Okay, err... I'm not very sure what I just wrote myself. Does it make sense?

Craziness: I'm crazy. I'm on my way to madness, I'm sure of that. "I've gotta be outta my mind" - that's the line that has been repeating itself over and over and over in my head everyday, every hour. I've never heard something repeat itself so many times before. Gah. Maybe I _am_ going crazy.

Tired: Okay, perhaps all this madness is coming from my lack of sleep, I have no idea. I've been sleeping at 3 for the past 3 days or so (okay, I know some of you do too, but I have never done that >_<) and everyone knows what happens when I get tired. I do stupid stuff. Or I get a migraine. This time, it's both. But someone has been accompanying me (virtually) the past few days and it's helped a lot in keeping me awake... So I guess it ain't that bad. ^^;;

Computron: Yep, that's the name of the competition I went for today, and will be going for again next week. The 1st round(which was today) had us creating little bots that will transfer codes to the opponent's bots when we bang into them. The aim is to eliminate them.

It was really funny cause my team's bots kept killing themselves and well. Keep getting deactivated and all for no reason. And when we tested it against the sample one in the computer, we got wiped out in a matter of a few seconds. Ah well. Thankfully, we managed to (or seem to have) improve it a little in the last 5 to 10 minutes when one of my team members suddenly suggested something. Other than the fact that the later version had my main bot turning around in circles like some mad magnetic compass I guess it worked better than the previous one ^^;;

But it was fun. =^^=

SP-dominated: Oh, and did I mention? Like 7 groups were from SP... When my group came into the room to get seated we were like the 5th SP group... The guy was like "Huh?? SP again?" and the secondary school/JC team behind us went "wah lao eh". I couldn't stop myself from laughing. Indeed, when I looked around, the entire back half of the computer lab was from our school, our faculty. Heh. Now _that_ is domination.

Guitar strings and overdose

Too much of a good thing: This is just like having an overdose - like eating the same favourite food of yours every day, for every meal. I know this is not good, and yet I'm doing it. I can foresee the time when I will be sick of it for a short period of time before it comes back again, and I don't want it to happen. Guess I'll just have to monitor my intake... Or hope it's like chicken rice. At least I won't get sick of _that_.

And in case you haven't realised... I wasn't talking about food.

The indestructable balance...: Okay, I've just found someone who noticed it too! But that person uses some other words to describe it. Used to have it in my MSN nick like for the whole of last year or something? I can't remember... But recently, it hasn't been making itself known to me, and that is... scary. Extremely so. Or maybe my happy things are just cancelling the unhappy ones? I have no idea.

CAMERA: YES YES YES!!! I've got a camera now!!! As in, again! No, my dead one hasn't revived itself, but it's as-good-as, or even better!!! Love my new cam, and I just can't WAIT to use it this Friday and Monday and whenever else.... *rubs hands in glee* This is going to be so much fun.

Randomness: Okay, I just saw something in Skye's blog that I couldn't help laughing at... Heheh... "Apparently you dun pluck a guitar string...you stroke it....XD sounds bad doesn't it". *laughs* I guess I do learn something new everyday. I never knew that despite listening to a brother play one for god-knows-how-many-years. Ah well.

Outing with clarence and me, lucky.

Today: Yepz, went out today to watch 'Over the hedge' with Clarence (the senior). We got backed out on by 3 people... Then kept bumping into people we didn't want to bump into everywhere... -_-" Gosh. What luck. Anywayz, that was the only slightly frustrating thing today, oh, and of course, the fact that I was late. Like crap. I was L-A-T-E. =S And _everytime_ I go to the arcade I end up borrowing money from someone. Today was no exception. >_<

Yepz, but that was all the frustrating things. Other than that, I had loadsa fun. Learnt about places I've never been to, made a rather loud (and led to embarrassing) comment in the cinema, climbed the seats in the cinema, and walked through a whole afternoon of 'I'm not stupid' lines that Clarence was imitating ^^;; It was extremely fun and amusing. And of course, I just had to keep walking the wrong direction and making a fool of myself ^^;; And kicking chairs and people. Heheh...

Dance: Yippee! Danced the DDR thingy today--- It was loads of fun~ =D=D It's just wonderful being able to play with my friends-- And like my dance partner was good!!! Made me remember lotsa stuff... Realised that I seem to end up playing Para and the DDR with my good friends-- Well, at least I hope this trend continues. Wish I could take a step back and video it sometimes so that the memories will always be fresh. But I can't exactly clone myself and take the video when I'm up there dancing too, right? Ah well. Tough luck.

To sum it up: It was much better than I thought it'd be ^_^ Which is good. The only pity? I didn't bring my camera-- Or I could have taken so many cute and interesting shots ;) Heheh... Ah well. And the total number of arcades visited today: 3. =D

I'm lucky: Gosh, yes, I feel like I'm so darn lucky. No matter what turbulances I have out there, I always have some kinda anchor there... Someone to turn to, people who will reach out for me when they notice, and notice they will when they look at me. Complicated feelings rage when I'm out there, yet I always have someone who will laugh at my sceptism, look way too far ahead and way too off-track and amuse me, someone I can be there for when they are down. This, I have, and this, I'm thankful for.

And gosh, that just sounded like some kinda Prudential advertisement, didn't it? Sigh, ah well. (And somehow I know someone's gonna repeat my 'sigh' >_< Bad habit of mine, ain't it?)
