how i possibly would meet my end

11:41 AM
before my 4 years in NUS is up, there are many likely ways through which i would meet an undesired (i hope) end.

1. i could get knocked down by an ISB when i am walking passively around campus.

2. i could choke on exhaust fumes emitted powerfully from the ISB when i am walking passively around campus.

3. i could get wedged in between the doors of the ISB when i attempt to get on the bus and the impatient bus driver decides to close the door on me, through which he manages to slice my body into half and bits of me will be preserved forever on the entrance of the bus.

4. my brain could burn out from an overload of information my int'l econs lecturer gives us when he insists on ending lecture well past the designated 1 hr 45 minutes of lecture time as he attempts to cram into our tiny little heads information that absolutely baffles us. worse, it's an 8 to 10 class. we're really wide awake and not sleeping. nah-uh. not at all.

5. my blood is slowly being replaced by coke and coffee. i don't think my cells will function in caffeine. they're going to shrivel up and die.

6. how could i forget KR dinners and breakfasts that are slowly eating up my internal organs and disintegrating them?

7. since exams are coming i may go mad very slowly and when i finally emerge from my room i would be devoid of my human self and would have morphed into a dirty stinky smelly hairy animal.

8. otherwise, if i study downstairs, i am convinced that i would consume such vast amounts of wedges that i myself may just turn into a giant potato wedge. would life be fun as a potato wedge?

9. if i don't turn into a potato wedge, i'll morph into a huge ball of fat and my block would use me for captain's ball.

10. lastly i could be driven crazy by my biosemiotics IVLE posting. grrr.

BAH.

10:15 AM
i just called this government institution that i applied for an internship with to check on my application status, because it's been a while and they regret to inform that only successful applicats will be contacted.

so i had to at least find out if i was an unsuccessful applicant. oh, btw, i am. hah. she says that if i have been shortlisted i would have been told by now. gee thanks.

%$!@ see now this is what comes from expecting. life's less harsh when you don't expect. and i REALLY thought i would get it. i thought my essay was good. my grades are good. i fulfilled most of their requirements.

i never used to expect, so i'd feel less disappointed. but lately i've begun to. maybe i should revert back to my original let's-not-get-too-hopeful attitude.

okla deprive me of a scholarship after my A levels, i'm not scholarship material (no S papers what %$#!@$#^%) but will giving me an internship kill you?

i'm convinced that i'm never going to get a job.

so nice!

1:39 AM

i wanted to post this ages ago, around amplitude. the week leading up to the performance, there were mini les mis performances on my floor (as lishi The Choir Chair gave herself the lead role AND decided that she was lazy to have choir rehearsals in the music room). it was so nice to open my door and listen to the melodious voices floating down the hallway. especially this song. wah, lea salonga - amazing. her voice, woah. and the emotion in the way she sings! breathtaking. look at the video! have a karaoke session and yowl out this songg. it made me cry the first time i heard it oh i am such a sucker.

oh yes, amplitude was amazing, KR choir and A capella you guys rock ah. i wish i would sing =( poor yanjie next to me kept hearing attempts of mine to sing and dance and blow my nose all at the same time. hahah.

on my own
lea salonga
les miserables

And now I'm all alone again

Nowhere to turn, no one to go to.
Without a home, without a friend
without a face to say hello to
But now the night is near
And I can make-believe he's here

Sometimes I walk alone at night
When everybody else is sleeping
I think of him and then I'm happy
With the company I'm keeping
The city goes to bed
And I can live inside my head

On my own
Pretending he's beside me
All alone
I walk with him 'til morning
Without him, I feel his arms around me
And when I lose my way, I close my eyes and he has found me

In the rain
The pavement shines like silver
All the lights are misty in the river
In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight
And all I see is him and me forever and forever

And I know it's only in my mind
That I'm talking to myself and not to him
And although I know that he is blind
Still I say there's a way for us

I love him
But when the night is over
He is gone
The river's just a river
Without him, the world around me changes
The trees are bare and everywhere the streets are full of strangers

I love him
But every day I'm lonely
All my life I've only been pretending
Without me, his world will go on turning
The world is full of happiness that I have never known

I love him
I love him
I love him
But only on my own.

*sniff*

bugssss

2:29 AM
for some reason there has been an influx of bugs in my room. actually, not just in my room but in my floor (no, i'm not talking about the men who visit the 3rd floor, that's another issue for another day).

i used to kill them and pile them up in a corner where they would mingle with the eraser dust but now i have come up with a better solution.

i've decided that since one bug committed suicide in my half drunk cup of coffee, the rest of the bug should go the same way. so i've taken to drowning all the stupid bugs that choose to fly into my room in my coffee swill. *evil laughter*

okla it's quite gross but whatever.

and today i have discovered that economics is the subject for me. it beats me how i managed to do A level chemistry and physics. looking back, if i had a choice and had to redo JC, i'd choose to do theatre, lit/tamil lit, econs and math. i just cannot seem to memorise scientific facts when i don't see a practical application to my immediate life.

a thought

3:33 PM
why go all the way to a foreign country to do community service, when you don't do the least you could be doing like being nice to family and friends, and even strangers or buying the 20 cent tissue paper from the aunty selling them, or dropping a coin for the tired busker singing in the underpass and what else?

rant

10:13 AM
not now. i have no time for rants, see. i have too many things to do for this hall, at the expense of my personal life. oh look seems like i've started already. note to self: keep this as impersonal as possible. heh.

for some reason, i was previously not fired up about this issue. i silently admitted defeat, that i was most definitely in the wrong, and i accepted it was my fault. now i think as much as opinions seem to be rational, they may not be fair.

i just want to say that i am fucking proud of my floormates who have given their blood, sweat, tears, CAP, social lives, family time etc to hall this year. amplitude, flag, production, dance uncensored, basketball, culture night, rockfest, dramafeste, JCRC, chingay, collaboration, open floor, open house, FWOC.

not enough? if you say so.

eggjams.

2:53 PM
eggjams are nastyhorribleslimythings because:

1. they make me go bald. my hair has been dropping in bales! if it's gets worse i'll do a britney ahaha.

2. they make me hungry. ALL THE TIME. studying at night makes me especially hungry. yesterday in the dining hall the volleyballers were having supper and no one whom i was studying with was a volleyballer. WHY. i contemplated faking my volleyball-ness for a while too. (in any case, it was the men's team so that was just a tiny problem). i tried to flirt with rodney (for the life of me, i can't remember his real name. help!) but in response to my attempted flirting all he said was you bitch and went off to eat pizza. that pizza smell. oh how i longed to taste that hot melted cheese in my mouth - but no! the elitist volleyballers were gorging all by themselves with absolutely no consideration for the rest of us mugging in the dining hall.

3. i lose my grasp of reality. i've been having the weirdest of dreams every time i nap or sleep. in my dreams i get the illusion that i've woken up and am walking around but after a while i realise that i'm still sleeping and i still refuse to wake up.

4. loss of muscle control and selective deafness. by this i mean a subconscious Alarm Clock Shutting Off syndrome which has now become common place. i don't even hear it anymore! i don't even realise it when i stretch out my hand and whack it on it's head to shut off that very annoying shrill riiiiiiiiiing that it yowls at me every morning.

5. i'm a drooling disgrace. nownow, i'm not going to elaborate. i'm also losing my discipline through my drool. hahah.

6. absolute loss of interest in personal appearance. unshaven legs, unkempt gorilla like eyebrows, chipped nailpolish, a Very Strange Person staring back at me in the mirror. i still am at a loss as to where the fats suddenly appeared from.

7. post exam comfort food eating habits. mmmm mac's breakfast! hotcakes! butter! maple syrup! ha(r)shbrowns! i even got convinced by jinling to eat a 2nd hashbrown. okay so it wasn't that hard. we bumped into more production people - i think the macs deprivation really did drive us crazy. woo. CRAZY! OW.

8. no dates! no dates make me sad. but yay i have a date today! and tomorrow! movie date, supper date, play date! wooo.

oklar so my life's not that sad.

note to self: lazy bitch you still have 2 midterms you should not be blogging.
