Mourning glory

"life is like a morning glory which blooms iridescently like a prism in a morning room....."

ok, that's all i remember from the line in Morning Glory which, according to Xinye, was repeated five times. and of course, some of us just had to spoof the line in a mock poetic fashion. hurhur.

i guess one could relate to the themes in the play.

i'm waxing indignant. i refuse to bloom.

i'm so bored...

nothing to do so i'm blogging though i have nothing to blog about.

tim bunnell rocks. he's so damn funny. and he makes the origins of cities actually sound interesting. my pen ran out of ink when i was paying attention and copying notes! argh. when i actually WANT to take notes, i am unable to. i guess i should just resign to my fate... which is to be a slacker? hmm...

taking a module alone sucks as much as a bad haircut.

no lessons tmr. don't know what i'll do to pass the time. lalala. maybe i'll blog mindlessly like what i'm doing now. hah.

dary came to pick mel and i up fer supper at holland v just now. then we went back to mel's where we had ben and jerry's (!) and played with a tampon. interesting, i must say.....

When we left i had the feeling that i was forgetting something. i actually left my wallet there. geez. anyways, it's so great that dary lives just down the road from nus and even greater that he has a car! hah. supper supper!

ok. i'm feeling hungry now.

met my darling just now! haha so spontaneous. was just talking online then she was like "let's meet halfway" on the road from PGP to KR. so we did. but that woman walked so slow i was practically at PGP when our paths crossed. hah. it's surprisingly nearer than i thought! in the car the road seems super long, dark and scary. but it's not that bad really. not scary! i was just walking walking then suddenly, "eh? that looks like PGP!?"

so, crazy us sat at the side of the road for a talk-cock session. oh and many ppl actually run so late at night. amazing.

CG was pretty fun though i really hate plasticine. can't stand the smell and all. ugh. made a lizard.. and while i was making it i was actually feeling damn grossed out. like afraid to touch it? haha. but i'd say i make a pretty darn real looking gecko. eeeks. the painting part was funner though! hmm. come to think of it, today's CG was like a back-to-pri-sch thing. haha. cool.

bleah

i have the flu.

i have a 9am class tmr.

i have bad hair.

was planning to rant about something or rather someone, who really pissed me off, in the hope that that person would read it (not that he'd feel any guilt). bah. i could go on and on if i started but now i'm too lazy to. also in a better mood now so i've lost all motivation to kao pei. hah. i just marvel at some people's acting skills and the fact that some people never grow up.

met up with the CAC peeps for dinner at CPK. the pizzas were so nice! better than i remembered them to be. heh. ate so much today. bloody full now. had ice cream, then dinner, then coffee (which had ice cream in it too). haha. burp.

was nice to see em again. haven't seen people like jo and elvira in like 2 years!? oh well... the good ol' days are gone. i shall not go on reminiscing if not this post would go on forever hah.

gonna cut hair tmr. i'm always damn apprehensive about cutting hair cos something always goes wrong... hope i don't end up looking like an idiot haha. or do i already look like one? hmm. hah we'll see...

till tmr then!

You Are 11 Years Old

11 Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe. 13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world. 20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences. 30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more! 40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

What Age Do You Act?

i thought i'd be at least 18?? 11 is not even teen yet!

idle fun

yayyy. it's so much better using a com free of those stupid pop-ups. my lappie is plagued with spyware or whatever you call those pesty things. and it's slow.. and hangs at times. ugh. the new com is so much faster in comparison. BUT. for some reason my blog's grey instead of blue on this com! my shoutbox too. why? why?? how drab looking.

american idol was heeeelarious! i think i've finally figured out why some of those who can't sing think that they CAN sing and that they have a fab voice. well, some are obviously tone deaf right? so if they're tone deaf, they wouldn't even know if they're singing terribly. so they think they're great. that's the only reason i can think of as to why someone who sings awfully out of tune would go on the show to make an ass outta himself AND remain adamant about the (non)fact that he can sing.

i'm baaaack

oh bed, how i have missed thee. this morning when i was sleeping, i thought i was in my own bed at home. so i turned over thinking that i had alot of space and my leg hit the ground almost causing me to fall off the bed. upon the rude awakening i realised... "oh, i'm in hall."

tonight i shall sleep well.

am listening to various versions of the theme from The Godfather now. this song totally rocks my balls! or at least i'm sure it would if i had balls. the song's just so poignant. one of the versions i have is a guitar solo by Slash!! coolness. oh, i haven't even watched The Godfather yet. haha so loser. it's one of those shows that i've really been wanting to watch though.

was waiting patiently at home to welcome it. and my new PC just arrived! sweeet. shall go play with it.

haven't had a title in awhile

went for the Ronin gig. thought the bassist was waaay cool. and found out that he was in my lit class last sem. hahaha. don't recognise him at all. he must've skipped lectures! or hmm.. maybe it was me who skipped lects. hah.

the most bizarre band name award has to go to - soft shell crabs. what an effective name. effective in making me hungry.

sporadic moments of delectation justify my otherwise inane existence.

you know how sometimes you're reading something and you hear the same words you're reading playing either on the radio or tv? it just happened to me. and i find these occurrences rather freaky. just like when you're humming or singing a song then suddenly you hear it playing.

this post is so random.

aural reception: half - ben davis

i hear someone playing techno... rather loudly too. and it's 345 in the morning.
interesting.

there goes my 3 day week dream. just realised that my lesson on thurs is not webcasted after all. bah. and IF i'm unlucky i just might get tutorials on friday. and that would give me a perfect 5 day week. hah... i hope not!!

hmm. ok. so i'm in hall now. and the feeling's totally weird. i don't know. guess i'm homesick already! i wanna go back to me comfy bed! am very bored now.

Alfie was rather entertaining although i think the only reason for that was... JUDE LAW!! the story itself was quite draggy and i didn't like the ending! booo. jude law really saved the show. seriously. if it were any other actor the show would have been pretty boring. but hmm.. he does look as if he's aged abit since... say.. Gattaca? but hell, he's still hot. hahaha. and a good actor too of course. heh.

yesterday was at this hawker centre with my parents and mom spots this girl...

mom: "aiyoooo! look at her skirt so short. so low can see the backside! etc... "

dad: "yah and the fats all oozing out somemore. if no fats still ok."

i don't know why but i was rather tickled by the whole incident. haha.

music: you're nobody till somebody loves you - frank sinatra

planned to meet the rest at ikea to get xinye's stuff but.. but... BUT... i couldn't wake up this morning! heh.

anyways!

Happy Birthday Bolooi!!

end of week one!

met me mom at taka after school today so i took the opportunity to get something off her. haha. walked into kino... walked out with a grin on my face and The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy by Tim Burton in tow! it's funny. macabre. weird. but cute! and it's so Tim Burton, lah. i like it!

oh, by the way, it's the end of the first school week for me! well, kinda. muahahhaha.

First-day Blues

first day of school sucked! had to drag myself outta bed at 8-friggin-AM and struggle to open my eyes. went to bed last night at 12AM, woke at 1AM, couldn't fall asleep till like 4AM. raaaarhhh.

the english renaissance looks to be a horrible module. ugh.

as much as i tried to keep awake i fell asleep during history of film. and the textbook is super heavy. had to lug it all the way home, giving my arms a damn good workout.

pooped out and it's only the first day of many more horrible days to come. and so the countdown begins..

14 more weeks.....!

more food!

dim sum at chinasquare failed to meet expectations. and considering it's a restaurant in the tung lok group it was a considerable let down.

after we were done with our breakfast/lunch/dinner (all rolled into one! for me at least), we went to check out the library book sale. another disappointment. expected though. i'd rather just go to the library to borrow books. free too! and in the same crappy condition. hah.

gelare and MPH did not let me down though. hah. found the book i want! graphic novel Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi. procurement when i feel richer. hahaha. few other books that i want but shall not think about till the semester's over. i'll have my lit books to keep me well occupied. i trust in their unfailing reliability. hah.

off to airport after that to send charkwa and joel off. i wanna go toooo! sigh. their presence shall be missed.

eating woes

dinner at eng seng didn't seem as good as the last time. seafood's so troublesome to eat lah. especially crab. haha. my crab flew onto my shirt, bounced off and promptly landed on my lap. i'm a messy eater. hah.

ok. it just hit me very hard... i'm twenty-freakin-one this year!!!

talking to dary. i mentioned that his sis is J2 now and that i still remember her being sec 3 (when WE were in J2). and like suddenly she's in J2!? and suddenly we're 21?!?!?!? how the *beep* did that happen?? almost like 2 or 3 years went by without my noticing. now even the phrase 'time flies' seems like an understatement. hah. when i was in J2 i didn't even cross my mind that i'd be 21 some day. it was like something that was not gonna happen. not anytime soon anyway. i remember clearly my 18th birthday. 18 wasn't a big deal to me. 21 sure is though.

yah.. so anyway..

happy 21st weng!

under one roof

went to gram's place cos brother was having a barbeque. and i found out... that he's got a PS2!! and alot of games! walao! also saw the missing weezer and nirvana cds there. hah. yay. so they are not lost.

sigh. one brother has a dog, the other has a playstation. wouldn't it be nice if we were all living under one roof? then i'd get a share too. haha. oh well....

happy yew near!

i had a pretty great xmas and new year celebrations this year. last year. still feels like the same year to me hah.

went to this world blind union on NYE with godparents cos they know the guy who runs the place. and it was... interesting to see so many blind people at a party having fun, happy and all. prior to this i've never come into contact with any blind before. and some of em are really cute. but the place was super noisy cos they were all shouting. i guess that happens when u can't see. you just shout for people not knowing if they're around or not. and walk into chairs.. and you literally get to see the blind leading the blind. it was a really nice experience for me though... getting to meet my godparent's blind friend and all. very funny, smiley guy.

went to mama's place after that then home pretty early. haha. haven't been home so early on NYE in awhile.

new year's day was even better. was at godparents place and we were extremely disturbed by some noisy celebrations going on downstairs and we were pretty bored so we went for a drive. so spontaneous. haha. ooh we're bored. let's get out. like now! godma wanted to catch a movie and was like "let's go meet the fuckers".
wahahha. she derives great joy from saying that. and i'm highly amused.
but anyway, we just got into the car with no destination in mind. somehow ended up at the esplanade. walked. ooooh music. let's go see. harry's bar. wanna go in and get a drink? ok lets go in. nice place that. with the paul guy singing. oh and saw sg idol's jerry there too. hah. went to the waterfront to sit sit walk walk. surprisingly quite a number of ppl ard at that time (was already 1am). great breeze and quiet... peace. to geylang for supper after that! my fave you tiao with soy bean!

2004 wasn't too bad. definitely better than 2005 i say. grew closer to my family... even with my brothers. hah. but but but. i feel i can't say the same with my friends. in fact i think the opposite has happened. drifted apart. you win some you lose some i guess.

whatever it is, i still love my family and my friends. hope 2005 will be better for everyone.

what a long boring post. hungry. i want my dim sum buffet! ok. bye.
