Candlelight
there's a butterfly candle burning at the corner of my desk. i bought it yesterday afternoon before i found out.
still seems so surreal. i wake up and force myself not to think.
i'm remembering loads of stuff, and also realizing how much i've forgotten. i realised that we haven't taken a picture together for so long.
Sleepsong
Saoirse/Secret Garden
Lay down your head,
And I’ll sing you a lullaby-
Back to the years,
Of loo-li lai-lay;
And I’ll sing you to sleep...
And I’ll sing you tomorrow...
Bless you with love,
For the road that you go.
May you sail fair,
To the far fields of fortune,
With diamonds and pearls,
At your head and your feet;
And may you need never
To banish misfortune;
May you find kindness,
In all that you meet.
May there always be angels,
To watch over you;
To guide you each step of the way;
To guard you and keep you
Safe from all harm;
Loo-li, loo-li, lai-lay.
May you bring love,
And may you bring happiness;
Be loved in returns,
To the end of your days;
Now, fall off to sleep,
I’m not meaning to keep you,
I’ll just sit for a while,
And sing loo-li, lai-lay.to all those who've expressed their concern, thanks, i'll be fine after a while. it's just that i sometimes find myself thinking, what's the point in studying medicine and how to save other people's lives when i couldn't even help a friend? i'm not blaming myself. i'm just... wondering.

i don't know why you did what you did. but at this point i'll say this, i admire the courage you had to carry it through. i wish you hadn't though. i wish that you'd at least thought things through. i wish that you'd told someone, anyone, what was happening instead of keeping it all to yourself. i wish that you'd told me, i'd have tried to help. then maybe i wouldn't be left here thinking of all the things i could and should have done and said.
it feels so wierd to be typing this. i'd relive this day again with all the emotional rollercoasters if i could just wake up and know that it's a dream.
thanks for being a wonderful friend. i really really appreciate it. we had our share of disagreements, but i'm glad that our friendship lasted this long. i remember telling you a long time ago, 'God has a purpose for you'. i still believe He does. i don't blame or question Him as to why this has happened. all i hope is that you're happy now.
just to let you know that we love you very much and we're all going to miss you. you've touched our hearts and lives and we'll never forget you. i hope that one day i'll see you again.

Indepdent lecture theatres
had the most entertaining lecture today. cos the sunderland seemed to have decided it wanted to live its own life. first all the computers weren't working, so we had no powerpoint slides... poor lorena was attempting to draw diagrams by hadn before the overheads arrived... and then halfway thru, the projector shut it self down... then the mics shut down. and then the lights dimmed themselves. and just as lorena was about to give up, the projector suddenly came to life again and lit up and shone straight into her eyes. *rofl* all hail psychotic lecture theatres.
had a talk on clincal sch selection today... i feel tempted to go austin. the dean seems to be on crack somehow... dunno. shall pray for a sign when we go there to visit tmr... the st v's dean is scaaareeee... she looked so fierce just standing up there with the rest!!! meow. i dunno... shall see how. but i guess no matter where i go i won't appeal. cos there has to be a reason i will be allocated to wherever i'm going ne?
to the person i was rude to today, sorry. but i don't exactly like you much so who cares. XD hehehe. not my fault. i blame it on the full moon. *howls* hahaha... nope, not remus fangirl at all... not a bit... all hail the puppy pairing! XD hahaha... la la la... i think i shud go and get some sleep or smthg... or maybe i shud eat my
fuji apple and read
tenipuri love mode. XD hahaha... ok. i'm corny, i need help. and there's 4 lectures tmr starting at 8 am... *cries* and then the austin visit after that... may i last thru it all without falling asleep or wibbling ard... desu. *wibbles off to do work, read manga and eat apple*

Argh...
i think i need ficcage... but i should be studying for test... and even if i need ficcage, i dunno wat i want to read! and if i do read anything, i wish that it was good and at least half decent! i suddenly have this urge to go strangle all those irritating writers who can't write a decent line to save their lives (and i think i fall into that category as well so i shud wat... jump out my window and commit suicide by bashing my head on the window sill???? >< bleh)
was up till 6 this morning transcribing RRB's lecture... cos i was d/ling new glass mask and reading. *head desk* ARGH! sigh. but yesh, i'm... getting there... microbio is starting to sink in i think? considering that it was actually running thru my head before i went to sleep last nite/this morning... and i swear i've dreamt abt it sometimes too. -_-" oh well. i think i'm putting in slightly more ffort this year compared to last, so that's good i guess.. need to add oil tho. hols are comign soon, thank goodness for that. must use it to catch up on stuff for once instead of just lazing ard. sigh.
FEED ME FIC!!! ANY FIC!!! fluffy fic sounds good... whee! sigh. ok. shall go and edit my typings from last nite before getting ready for katkat's b'day dinner... looks like my plans to go down to the city to pick up the anniversary card got scrapped again... i'll do it by tuesday i swear. and i need to hound officeworks for my chair. sigh. off to pore over RRB's lecture then. bye!
ps: maybe i'll write the angel sanc/holic fic later if i feel like it. somehow, i'm in the mood to torture watanuki... and wat better way than sic-ing mad hatter on him? XD sqee for hatter-san... wish there were more lucifer/hatter fics ard... if that's not an obscure pairing then i dunno wat is... but... isn't it kind of a sweet-ish one? very twisted but still sweet. hatter needs to get his/her brains unscrambled and head screwed on the right way. XD

Stupid internet company
ok. so they send me an email saying that i didn't nominate a credit card for auto top-up. (which i thot i did, but APPARENTLY filling it in on the form doesn't work that way) so they say to go to the site and log in and follow the instructions.... and whoopee do da, the site is down. -_-" or rather i can't get in at all. did their data crash or smthg with the blackout? i dunno. but now i can't figure out if is DO have extra credit left in the account or not. i'm assuming i do since, well, i haven't been disconnected. and i think there a line that says i've got extra credit there? i dunno. but if they dare to cut me off on mon, i WILL raise hell over the phone with them. considering that they sent the e-mail at 9am on fri morning, i don't think that counts as enough advance warning... bleh.
incidentally, (and here kat kat starts freaking) i killed a spider after my shower. it was dnagling down the ceiling in the middle of my room. fascinating. how it got there, i don't know and don't want to know and i hope that it's descendents will not follow it's path into my room. cos i was seriously freaking out as to where exactly it was lowering itself... cos at first i thot it was gonna end up on my bed, but thankfully it ended up on the floor after a few squirts of bug spray... near to my notes unfortunately, but hail my trsuty desk calender which has killed many a moth, spider and variuos insects (if anyone was wondering what the sudden violent slapping noises coming from my room last year were)
2:06 AM
Blackout!
[typed in the dark at abt 1130pm on fri nite]
ya... it blacked out at ard 1030... when i was happily doing my ironing and admiring how all the creases disappeared... yay for proper iron and ironing board... and then suddenly the lights flickered and went out. first thot was "oh shit, did i trip all the switches and stuff again?" (cos i somehow tripped my wall switched in jch last year the nite before hp exam and i was stuck without a heater and desk lamp for the rest of the time...) ya... so i was patting ard for my phone (note to self: BUY A TORCHLIGHT) and then i opened my door and stuck my head out and... i met my neighbour for the first time! hahaha. ya. well. anyway, the whole building's electricity is gone.. my aunt called (they're staying downstairs while visiting my cousin) every few min to update me. apparently there's loads of pple stuck outside since they can't get in... and the power will be back at midnite... -_-" so after sitting ard in teh dark for a while and msging pple to pass the time, i decided to go hunt for my lighter. amy-chan! the strawberry candle you gave me last year came into good use... pity i had to burn it, but my phone and mp3 player weren't giving off a very good light... so ya... it's burning merrily beside me now, but i'm essentially typing this in the dark since i can't see the keys anyway, and i'm quite proud to say that my touch typing skills are actually pretty good!!! in fact, maybe i should just type in the dark next time since my spelling seems to be better that way. hahahaha....
la la la... 50 more min to power back on. hopefully. sigh. i guess i'll go read manga on my com until then/. hope my battery lasts!!! maybe i shud go and buy candles or smthg in case this happens again... or that torch light... la la la. hehhe. i'd surf the net except it's wireless... and therefore the electricity to the cable box is GONE. >< bleh. desu. ok. shall go and twiddle thumbs and read manga... hhaha. may this not happen during exams otherwise i think i'll just trek outside and climb thru a window or smthg and sit at the tram stop and read my notes under teh street light man. >< bleh. bye!
[back to the present]
well, the power didn't come back on till abt 1.30... btu i was lucky, waku and goddess only got their power back at 4am. -_-" oh well. so i continued ironing after that. hahaha... very happy now, got all my shirts nicely pressed and my kimono top is absolutely shining, my denim skrit look like proper denim instead of crumpled cotton. sigh. so tempting to just go and get an iron and ironing board... but their so big! and the small ones aren't very... functional. bleh. just did 2 lectures after sleeping the whole aftenroon away... cooked fish rice with chai xin for dinner. sqee! i miss the taste of that veggie... think i'm going to stock up on it. hahahaha. oh well. shall go surf a bit and get ard to typing out RRB's crazy lecture on vaccines. i'm going to kill my hand if i have to write all the info out! and there's no way i'm going to be able to fit it all into the margins ard the notes unless i have a magnifying glass to read with when i get round to studying it for the test week after next.... meow. sigh. DESU! haha. ok. i poofs now.

1:33 AM
Stupid joke
from the GP at the practise yesterday:
a man died and went to heaven. when he got there he saw a guy strutting around. irritated, he turned to the angels and complained "will someone go and do something about that doctor? he's going around bossing people and pretending that he's God!" the angels replied, "well, that's actually God pretending to be a doctor."
yesh, in other words, htey spent abt 5 min in the common room bashing surgeons after the recep complained that once when she was in hospital, an anesthetist told her not to worry cos he was "God". -_-" not a very smart thing to say. and the crazy GP said that she should have said "all the same, can i have your name in case you screw up and i need to call my lawyer?" XD *rofl* that GP was number one. apparently she went for a colonoscopy, and when she saw the surgeon, she said "did you wash that and sterilise that after the last patient?" and after the procedure: "thanks for not perforating my bowel!" *falls down*
anyywa, abt he vist (since i'm currently procrastinating pbl AGAIN.) it was super out of the way. like only 1 bloody tramline runs there. -_-" but every 10 min, thank goodness. ya. and it's so ulu that if i hadn't packed lunch, i'd be stuck without food or on the great tram adventure to the nearest diner. -_-" sigh. next tiem i'm bringing breadtop... nutella rye bread is nice, but i don't want to eat that again the next time i'm there. altho they prob thot i was a health freak since i suddenly whipped out a giant fuji apple from my big and started crunching happily. XD tee hee... ya. but anyway, palcement was very interesting. saw lots of really cool cases. and the crazy GP from the afternoon also told me abt some of the more dramatic cases she'd seen, like an amoebic abcess from which they drain 4 LITRES of fluid. *goes green* and a guy with subdural haemorrhage that almost got misdiagnosed as viral encephalitis. ya. so it was a very long day... lots' of blood pressure taking too. oh and one guy was attempting to flirt with me in front of the afternoon GP. his biggest mistake? "you're very beautiful! so, which part of china do you come from?" me: "... ... i'm not from china". hahahaha. stupid male.
stayed there till 6, then cheonged back to the city to congratulate goddess before her graduation ceremony... so CONGRATULATIONS GODDESS!! WHEE~!!! PETTO WUBS YOU MUCH!!! koala was being UNHYGIENIC and GROSS. >< he was hungry so i sacrificed the remainin 1/4 of my giant thresherman's cookie... and then HE DROPPED A CHUNK ON THE FLOOR!!! and it had quite a big chocolate chip in it too... sinful@ hahaa. ya. so he dropped it near the grass patch outside the grass patch near wilson hall... and then and then and then HE PICKED IT UP AND ATE IT!!! ewwww gross.... kimmy was giving him the 'omg i can't believe you ate that' look and i was screeching abt him being a 5th yr meddie with no sense of hygiene at all. XD hahaha. oh well. it's a koala. hahaha. wibbled back home on the tram (yay for all day tickets) and then i fried myself a giant chicken-tomato-mushroom-carrot omelette, threw rice in and had fun watching heroes. after which i stared at my notes for a while and then gave up and got 10h sleep. sigh. so tired just from a day of watching GPs at work... can't imagine how it'll be like when i start work... sob sob. oh well. but i'm even more impressed with GPs now... they know so much!!! weeeehhhh.... and here i am tryign to waffle my way thru pbls... sigh. ok. enough procrastination... shall go start work now desu. incidentally, i keep haveing writing urges every now and then lately. ARGH! is the atmosphere in my new place more conducive than jch or smthg??? *head desk* i hate it when i feel like writing but have nothing to write... someone! give me topic and pairing!!! argh!!!
ps: speaking of fic, hydra wrote a crackfic. whereby zack gets half the first class SOLDIERs drunk, talk to chocobos, cut down trees and go drag racing in a policecar and stolen Turk motorbikes. *rofl* and of course, sephy gets dragged out of bed by tseng to go clear up the mess. XDXDXDXD *does happy fangirl dance of doom*

Cooking notes
1) prease to not leave broccoli to boil, and then get happy slicing up ginger and realize 10 min later that they're overcooked and soggy and gross.
2) prease to pour out the oil with you RIGHT hand instead of LEFT and not attempt to be ambidextrous since it means that twice teh recommended amt of oil goes into the pot. on that note, thank goodness for rice bran oil. at least it doesn't taste as gross as other types of oil in excess.
3) when marinating with soy sauce, prease to not get too happy pouring sauce out. the rice is now rather salty (altho i'm not relaly complaining cos it's still yummy)
4) prease to start cooking when you get hungry, not when you're starving so badly that you're practically eating out of the pot everytime you test to see if the veggies are cooked. which is not very smart cos you get a noseful of steam coming from the overcooked broccoli of doom. -_-"
erm. ya. the end. i shall now go eat my ginger and soy sauce chicken. salty sha la la. XD guess who'll be drinking loads of water later? XDXD
clinical placemtn yesterday was pretty fun. might blog more abt it later, but in short, it was VERY FAR AWAY. the 2nd GP i was assigned to was on crack (to qoute the other GP, she's the female version of house). and the place was so damn ulu that if i didn't bring along nutella sandwiches, i'd have starved to death and been buried long before the day was over. -_-" ok. dinner. bye.

7:56 PM
Uni is evil, Jono is mad.
whee! just had lesson with the jono cos the tyson muchly did his hip in doing ballet last fri. -_-" duuuuh. but yesh, it was a highly crack lesson... did a lot of technique and now i feel vaguely dislocated everywhere below my sternum... tee hee... and jono is full of crap too. i was complaining abt uni and he claims that "it's a neccessary evil! like unions and all that stuff." and then he was attempting to illustrate why the rumba doesn't look nice if you do it to the beat... and he says: "there's nothing sexy about doing it like this: 1, 2, 3, 4... apart from the fact that i'm wearing tight pants that is." me: *falls down*. hahahahha... no wonder the claudio believes that waku shouldn't dance with jono. XDXD and then elaine showed up for her lesson after mine and we were abusing jono while he bounced ard in front of us. *rofl* and we were trying to educate him as to why it's cheaper to call pple over out ocmputers, but he maintained that we might as well use the phone or go to the person's house... ie: i shud have flown to taiwan to talk to amy-chan instead of the conversation that made no sense cos of the lag time a few weeks back. -_-"
anyway... uni is teh evil... 4 lectures practically back to back starting at 8... not funny at all desu. bleh. but i survived... and sandra's review lecture for the test was almost an absolute waste of time too... sigh. oh well... tmr got placement. hope i don't get lost and the GP won't ask me a qn i can't answer in front of the patient and that the guy i'm paired with is nice... otherwise i will muchly go weeeeh and bang head on wall. ^_^"
okie... better go eat dinner now. reheated yesterday's stew... yay for double boiled stew. hahahahaha. XD but it should have stopped boiling by now... and i hope i can finish the whole thing. all hail the bottomless pit of doom!!! hahahaha. la la la. bye!
ps: blogger takes muchly long to load... therefore i types this on notepad... sigh... sooo sloooow.... mou.

Overstuffed
i need to learn how to estimate food portions better. to be precise, i need to stop overestimating how much my bottomless pit can pack away. -_-" i've got enough stew leftover for 1.5 portions... there was only supposed to be enough for 1 portion, and i meant to eat my bread with it, but noooo, i cooked so much that i didn't even have space for bread with dinner. -_-" but i'm still polishing off a bowl of graqpes happily. -_-" i think i'm a real cow. 4 stomachs: 1 for food, 1 for fruits, 1 for dessert, 1 for junk. XDXD tee hee. let's just hope that i'll be starving to death tmr nite after dance with tyson... i want to finish off all the stew so i can try cooking ginger soy chicken on wed. XD whee! i feed myself too well. if anyone tells me that i've lost weight when i go home, i'll be very amused cos i eat a lot. altho it's mainly 1 big meal a day... since everyone's saving money or dieting nowadays and doesn't wants to go subway etc for lunch... then again, PBL at 11 is very filling, cos i eat brekkie 20min before it starts, and then i'm munching on junk food during pbl... so no, i'm not dieting when i say i'm not hungry on mondays... i'm just too full of junk food. XD la la la.
reading RK and eating grapes. whee! think i'll rewrite some of the lecture notes later... can't read my handwriting and it's too cramped too. sigh. oh, and zhuanster is now addicted to blood+. yay! speaking of which, i need to go and transfer the mp3s from my harddrive to my computer... i want to listen to diva's song and one of the ending songs... katsuragi no koto ni or smthg like that. hehehe ya. char was very traumatised when me and zhuan attempted to intro her to the world of anime and j=pop. it's not my fault that youtube suddenly showed the gold video... the one where i was drooling over jin
's butt and kame. ^_________^ tee hee. ok. eat grapes. shower. lecture. sleep. sleep sounds good. sleep is my fren. whee!
6:21 PM
FF8 videos
sigh... i put the opening song onto my playlist, and then suddenly i have this urge to watch the opening videos... and then now i've the urge to play the game. *bashes head on desk* but i doubt i'll finish it as usual... i hate the system for ff8. bleh. whee! hahah.... printing stuff now, then i got to go cook dinner... lectures today were utter crap. sleepy for the first, info overload for the second... adn tmr we've got 4 lecture practically back to back starting at 8am... evilness. and another happy thing is that the GP doens't expect me to get to the clinic till 9.30 on wed, so it's not that bad... but i didn't ask wat time i've to still until... i've a feeling i'll be there till 5+... sniff sniff... better go and dig thru my cupboards and see wat i can pack for lunch then... sha la la... ok. i shall go and wage war against my beef with my nice big knife... bwahahaha!!! *brandishes knife*
edit: (1.5h later) BEEF STEW~! smells nice, taste quite ok too. mwahhaha. note to self: prease to cut you potatoes smaller next time... i managed to fill my pot to the brim with ingredients cos i'm cooking for 2 days, and then i could hardly sitr it cos everything was err... to big to push ard the pot. -_-" and then i watched in amazement as water miraculously appeared and covered most of it. XDXDXD and another note to self: start cooking earlier next time!!! *wibbles ard dying of hunger while waiting for stew to cool enough to eat*
2:08 AM
LJ users are on crack
i was poking ard the memories on red's LJ and i found links to the crackiest articles ever...
this is making fun of the half blood prince. in short, the author wrote a summary of the book based solely on the comments on his/her (i think it's a her tho) flist for the next few days after the book was released.
this is a rather long post that lists all the stupidest and tackiest story summaries that ever existed on the LJ i think... read them! they're highly crack!!!
and now i need to go and sleep... altho i'm not that sleepy... but if i dun sleep then i'll be stoning in PBL tmr, sigh. must go the city and check whether they've stock for my chair yet... shud have placed the order on fri when i was there. *hits self on head*

The perfect pining song
gah. got addicted again... "in the moonlight" by kotani kinya, off the gravitation OVA... very very sad-ish song... perfect for break-ups where one party is pining after the other etc etc. translated lyrics (ripped off some random site) below since i'm getting a bit too depressed listening to it to blog. i think watching depressing RK OVAs 2 days in a row, and then now listening to this song on loop is starting to get to me. *head desk* or maybe it's teh effect of actually studying during the weekend for the first time in a long time?? sigh. need sugar and crack infusion to get happy again desu.
When an orange-colored moonlit night comes, I think of you, as though the chic affectations in my words were someone else's words.
Even now, (I can remember) the pale light that illuminated your silhouette as you suddenly glanced up (at that night's sky).
What is it I'm waiting for, in this room without you -- it's just the clock's ticking, but it resonates in my sleepless heart like the sound of footsteps.
Even now I'm waiting; I stop here alone. From where do you now see the moon we saw together on that day?
My behavior made a mimicry of laughter, even when I remember your voice.
The scene of the night when we walked around together is (now) an orange-colored photograph.
You forgave the lies that fell from the darkness and my selfishness, but your tears, even now...
Without saying a word, time flows on; the sky is extinguished by the light of the morning that's coming soon, like it melts away. On that last night, no matter where it is, only the moon looks at my deserted heart even now.
I'll keep waiting for you, no matter how far apart we are -- it's just the clock's ticking, but it resonates in my sleepless heart like the sound of footsteps. Even now I'm waiting; I stop here alone. From where do you now see the moon we saw together on that day? *starts bawling eyes out* kidding. ya. oh well. and i just found out i've to go on a happy happy tram adventure to get to my placement on wed. >< oh joy. need to ring them tmr to check wat time i've to get there... if it's anytime before 9 i'm going to be very pissed cos it's going to take me abt an hour to get there. grrrr..... on the happy side of things, i've slept till i'm very happy this entire weekend... yay for nice weather to sleep in, and lots of stuffed toys. XD

Rurounin Kenshin OVAs
found the OVAs on youtube just now... watched the whole arc abt kenshin adn tomoe... super depressing... but it's in english so i finally understand wat's going on, given that the last time i watched it it was in canto dub with
fan ti subs. >< sha la la... the person who uploaded it has 2 more OVAs, so will watch those tmr. i wonder wat they are... didn't know that there were that many. ohs wells... mou. now i feel like reading the manga... and i've just come to the sad realization that i don't have 8 lecture recordings to listen to, i've got 13. sha la la. looks like i better start listening soon ne... okies. off to sleep cos going market tmr morning...

Hooooooooooootttttttttttttt
desu. it's friggin hot. it's almost 5 in the morning and the temperature is 26deg!!! 26!!! doesn't help that the wind isn't coming thru my window cos i got my blinds down. and if i turn on my fan it blows i nto my eyes and they get dry and itchy. bleh. needs cool air desu. *flops over*
youtube is evil. i suddenly had the urge to search for alexander videos. guess wat? there's stuff from teh final cut! XDXD scenes of bagoas where bagoas actually TALKS. like wow, he has a tongue and isn't just the mute pretty persian boy. XDXD but i didn't really like the way he sounds... i dunno if that's just his accent or whether it's on purpose, but it's just..... weird. kinda like how i felt when i heard a hispanic voice-over for yue in CCS and the really really REALLY bad voice for G in the DoC secret ending... imagine, Gackt's pretty face and some wierd-ass spanish-ish voice??? so does not go. meow.
almost done with half of pbl. i think i'll leave the rest cos i can get the info from the lecture notes. sha la la.
1:03 AM
Poetry again
sigh. instead of working on hypersensitivity for pbl
tmr today, i end up writing poetry. ARGH! it's on my LJ if anyone actually wants to read it.
i shuold stop listening to secret garden. it either makes me feel very sedate and happy or else i feel like writing stuff to it. other than that it's nice background music to watever i'm supposed to be doing while listening, in this case being doing pbl. i think i'm not making sense. all my creative juice probably went into 21 lines of... i dunno. nvm. i shall go write smthg decent for pbl tmr and then KO. desu.

Thursday night rush
it's the day before my fav day... and i'm stressing as usual cos i haven't done pbl. haven't done a single bit of work this entire week. go me. too busy celebrating the end of the test. >< bleh. and i blame amy-chan for linking THAT fic over msn... which led to me reading the sequel as well and pulling my hair and wondering how it's going to continue. bleh. incidentally, i also dug up a HP/FMA fic i bookmarked a long time ago... it's entertaining. ed vs snape... ed 2 snape 0. hahahaha!!! oh, and the twins ganging up with ed against roy, AND dyeing ed's hair pink accidentally on purpose... i want to see ed with pink hair, it'd be highly entertaining...
speaking of hair... i realized that my hair is longer than i'd expected it to be considering it's only been a month since i last cut it... and now i've this urge to grow it out till... i dunno, maybe chinese dance length? cos then i can do a proper braid and look sweet and innocent. XDXD kidding. but ya... suddenly i miss being able to french braid my hair... hmmm... maybe i'll be able to braid it by the time the exams come round??? teehee, i'm going to look super dishevelled considering that i tend to ruffle my fringe when i'm trying to think. (yes, i do have a brain thank you very much.) so. will see how well i can tahan having my hair very long again... then maybe i'll start keeping it again. whee! can use all my scrunchies and rubber bands again la la la.
going down to office works to buy myself a new study chair sometime soon. i muchly wages war against my current chair. hope i can get smthg at a good price...
ok. shall go shower and then tackle PBL... weather today is so stuffy... almost fell asleep during all teh lessons today. not good. doesnt' help that once i'm sleepy, my imagination takes a trip down to lalaland even if my eyes are open and i'm holding a pen... hence the wierd and wonderful scribblings on my prac notes that even jess noticed had become extremely big, cursive and hard to read by the end of sandra's debrief today. sigh. need mroe SLEEP! gr. ok. bye. the shower calls my name. thank goodness for cold water... it's too stuffy for hot water. and yes yes, water restrictions la la la. hahahaa

Decisions decisions
had the first clinical sch presentation today... by RMH. not bad, their propaganda. makes me want to go there now... sigh. i really dunno where to choose as my first choice... and they said that it's not guaranteed anyway, which is kinda irritating cos you're held in suspense over where you're going for the next few years... good thing is that it isn't by grades, so... ya... will go for the other open houses and see, but it's all so confusing!!! where should i go!!! it's times like these when i wish a big psychedelic flashing 10m high arrow would fall from heaven and point which hospital i'm supposed to be going to.... mou.
for anyone interested, i now have skype. and i think my mic works. if not then i'll just be holding it right under my nose and screaming into it at nite and driving the neighbours insane.. XD hehehe. ya. let me know thy user names and we can chat! whee!
just got back from dance... tyson was higher than usual today. at one point of time, he and brad had hauled up their t-shirts and comparing their belly buttons. -_-" and then at the end of the rumba, he decided that instead of dipping me, he'd pick me up and swing me around. needless to say i screeched the studio down. XD now i feel like a sack of potatoes the way he just picked me up and started whirling round and round... O.o dizzy en-chan. XD worked on samba technique, i think it's getting there... a bit of cha cha technique too, only problem with those 2 is that we're currently doing it to 3/4 speed, so hopefully when we get to the normal tempo, i can still remember to do the whole ankles-compress thing that tyson's been trying to get into my head. XD la di da.
sleeeeepy sha la la... perpertually sleepy since the test. mou. shud get a solid 8h sleep soon... sigh.
goddess and i have unofficially decided to set up the singles club... whereby we drown our sorrows every friday nite with ice cream. wat? freddo's is just 2 streets behind where i live!! hahaha. ya rite. like i'd actually haul my lazy ass out of the house to buy ice cream every week. it's just a thot tho. XD whee!
ok. off to do... watever. smthg. anything. i dunno... drink boost be HAPPY! hahahaha. they should have a boost juice at uni. or is there already one at uni? i don't remember. i don't think so. and krispy kreme's should take over donut king. and the sushi shop (don't remember it's name) should be blessed for making the best onigiri i've ever eaten. mag begs to differ cos she hates teh sesame seeds in it, but she's the minority so who cares. XD oh, and announcement on behalf of mag, if any of us gets attached, prease to tell her SLOWLY so she doesn't die of heart attack like i almost did last nite. ^__________^ hahahha. ok. i runs now before she judos me. XD

10:28 AM
Breaktime!
yup, stoning in the lab again while waiting for lecture to start... didn't sleep as early as i intended to last nite thanks to amy-chan's *ahem* fic rec... but it was highly crack so thanks you muchly desu. XD abt halfway thru it now, will prob finish it off tonite... all hail crack FMA fic. bwahahaha!!!!!
ms wee: nope, i don't have corinne may's albums... i only have vanessa-mae albums... but if you go to
here you might be able to find it ne??? and i'll try to go online sometime soon... was too tired to think of decent conversation last nite... apart from spamming waku to declare my undying love before going back to hiding offline... and tonite... hmm... not sure if i'll be going online again... shud at least try to get enough sleep for tmr's 8am and rmh open hose... sha la la. oh, and dance wih tyson of course... going to need a lot of energy to keep up with that since i'll be his first lesson of the day... scary thot. XD learning silver jive is highly fun, only problem is that i tend to go flying when he spins me round for that reverse step thing, watever it's called...
anyway, i shall ramble here for a bit more since i'm bored..... oooh, i just found a link for the FF paino collections... guess who's going to be best frens with rapidshare again. XXD will d/l later when i go home i guess... more study music is good... at leat i won't get sick of the vanessa mae albums anytime soon... altho i think my neighbours want to break my cd already... i was playing her 'storm' album on loop... and then i got readdicted to 'nocturne', 'prayer' and 'sleepsong' by secret garden.... very nice and soothing esp when your nerves are all frazzled adn stuff. hee XD SHA LA LA

Freedom! (sort of)
yay! the test is over!!! i survived!!! and now i can only hope and pray that i pass it cos the questions were seriously... cmi. -_-" but it's over and i don't need to worry for a while so yay! XD
wore my pseudo-school uniform mini skirt today... surprisingly JW didn't make any comments (given the hari raya comment from last week... -_-") and i think the tutor got a bit irritated at him for going into too much detail during the initial discussion of the problem. so HA. XD (i feel evil) was wibbling ard uni in a half awake state the whole day thanks to 5h sleep last nite... the HP qn weren't even worth the 2h i spent flipping thru the notes and reader... seriously. "which one of these is an open-ended question?" and then they list really silly answers. only thing is that i hope the answers weren't so silly tht i got them wrong. that'd be quite sad. ya... and then joy of joy, i got one of our favourite lecturers for the 2nd lecture of the afternoon... dear alistair stewart who talks at half speed and no one knows wat point he's getting at... needless to say when i wasn't writing down his long disjointed sentences (which stopped making sense after he paused ot take a breath every other second) i was stoning quite professionally to the point where tim (was sitting behind me) was calling my name and i didn't hear him and apparently i had this very 'huh???' expression on my face. *whistles and twiddles thumbs* oh, and alistair stewart was so enthusiastic abt his lecture that his mic fell off his shirt and he was trampling all over it and he didn't realize. -_-" i was stoning too so i didn't realize until half the theatre was laughing. la di da DESU!
anyway, to katkat and amy-chan: i've been a good girl, i haven't missed any church at all desu. i've been webcasting from home and me is muchly happy doing that cos frankly, i don't exactly like church here. oh wells. but yesh, i is still going to church 'in my room' as goddess puts it. so me is good girl. XD
very sleepy now... think i'll sleep early... oyasuminasai..... *KO*

SNAPE YOU BIG
FAT IDIOT.
ahem. in other news, thank you muchly to the meddies for the myer card thingy you guys bought for my birthday... it just went to sponsoring my (illegal, so don't tell mum) harry potter collection. yes, i went to target (all tyson's fault for telling me that they sold the books cheap there) yesterday and bought the whole series *bangs head on wall* don't ask why. i jsut felt like it. so i'm reading half-blood prince adn studying now... and i'm almost done with it, as is apaprent with the above proclamation.>< mou. wants the next book now desu. and i want to watch the movies too. sigh. i wonder if i can actually dig it up on youtube??? maybe some other day ne...
just finished webcasting church, so shall go eat fruits now and then shower... must remember not to put so much oil/put oil at all when panfrying salmon next time... it got a little... too oily when i was nearing the bottle of my bowl of soba... ^_^" not very smart i guess. XD

Why do pple i like get killed of???
nnnnnoooooooooooo!!!! why why why why does sirius have to die?!?!? i almost cried when i finished the book... or maybe that's becos i've been reading the whole day again but ANYWAY. WHY WHY WHY?!!?!!? *throws tantrum*
ok. now i really want to read half-blood prince... must. hunt. book. down. i think koala has it. shall go raid his room at grad house sometime next week.
and must study immunology desu. how sandra can get so excited while lecturing abt it i have no idea... not that it isn't fun... more like it's fun to listen and hear abt how amazing the immune system is and how smart those bugs are, but not fun to have to learn them all in great detail. and as i've been saying to whoever's interested, the idiots who named the anti-biotics had to be drunk when they did so. bleh.
i shall wibble off to bed now and sulk abt harry potter books now. mou. i want to know if snape is really good or bad... cos he muchly evil (at which i is muchly happy when he muchly evil... cos snape wouldn't be very snape-ish if he was oozing goodness and light ne? (pun not intended)) ahem. yes. all hail the converted fangirl. but i don't think there'll be any fics coming out of this end of australia anytime soon, i quite like the characters just as they are altho.... ohohohohhh. XDXDXDXDD ahem. nite nite.

Harry Potter is addictive
and i have a test next week. *bangs head on wall*
anyone has the half-blood prince book?? can i borrow after next monday? finishing off order of the phoenix. and for those wondering, yes, i've been reading since monday nite. like prease to shoot me now thanks yous. sigh. but yesh, it's highly interesting and entertaining. laughed my head off while reading abt teh crazy leprechauns at the quidditch world cup and how they were forming the letters 'ha ha' and 'hee hee' to piss the veela off. XD i muchly wubs the fred and george for being crack and... for some strange reason i think i'm turning into a snape fangirl. *bangs head on wall* cos he's so evil???? hahahah!!! oh well. watever. i just find him highly amusing. and all the mentions abt him being oily and greasy... well, reminds me of all the LotR fics i used to read abt aragorn's hair being unwashed and greasy and... *rofl* sorry, i just keep seeing aragon's face and waku's crack snape/loreal advert icon everytime i read that phrase. *dies laughing*
and now i want to watch the movies dammityesh so... ms wee, prease to pass the fics along esp the pairing that we were screaming abt. i want to see wat's so bad abt it. somehow, i just find it too hilarious for words. lupin and sirius on the other hand.... *evil laugh* i shall stop there. feel free to interpret anyway you like. and if you get the wrong idea, it's becos you have a dirty mind. ^_~ *twirls off in a cloud of smoke*

Joining the Potter club
i blame lyd for having the books in pdf format on her hard drive when she came over to leech.
on other words, i've started reading harry, potter, despite my previuos objections, and i'm now halfway thru the first book... all i can say is, JK Rowling was on crack when she wrote it. i mean, the school song is the crackest thing i've ever read. *dies laughing* ya... sha la la. need to go shower soon before it gets too cold and i change my mind. >< bleh.
cooked too much for dinner today./. threw in all the chicken left in the fridge (i hope it was still edible... it smelt kind of... wierd. but then again, i've never actually stuck my nose near to a piece of raw meat and inhaled beocs it's supposed to expire today... -_-") ya. so i stewed it with carrots and veggies and chucked rice in and stirred it all together. this brings mum's 'on dish wonder' to a new level... where by everything is served in a mess in a bowl. XDXD bwahaha. oh and i finished my first batch of grapes. go me. think i'll eat my peach tmr and teh rest of the grapes somewhere along wed or thurs... sha la la. grapes are my frens... i;ve never eaten green grapes with seeds before tho. an interesting experience. i always thot that green grapes were genetically engineered to be seedless, that's why they're green, so that pple dun confuse them with teh red ones that have seeds. ^_^" oh well. now i know.
today's lecture was insane. i spent half the time trying to resist the urge to start banging my head on the table. at least i wasn't the only one feeling that way... jess was muttering to herself in canto. and i think i heard a few 'die' in there. XDXD oh, and can someone prease to shoot the stupid male in my pbl grp??? initials JW, unfortunately comes from the same island. i wore my kimono top to uni today, and for those who've only every seen me in t-shirt and jeans, i guess they'd be shocked... but he looked at me and went "you're very dressed up today... wat's the occasion??" i was like "i'm not dressing up. it just looks dressy cos the material is shiny." him: "oh. haha, it's like you're dressing up for... for... hari raya!!!" me: *death glare* hari raya... HARI RAYA! can someone please explain to me how a KIMONO TOP (or for the very fashion dead pple: flower printed (pseudo-) silk top with billowy sleeves translates into hari raya? it nowhere looks like a baju!!!! (Altho i wouldn't mind wearing a baju one day when it's cool. they look comfy. a bit like the MG uniform. -_-" yes. therefore i conclude he needs a hit on the head. has he ever had a girlfren anyway?????? *lol*
ahem. yesh. so. i now goes to showers... sigh. meeting my supervisors tmr regarding the project hope that i actually have smthg to say to them... i hope they sort of have a project in mind for me unless they realy want me to do my compare and contrast project... SIGH. can i just do a reasearch paper on training snakes how to play dirge of cerberus? no? darn... XD ok. me go poof now. bye bye!

Culinary and Writing tendencies
i think i'm getting a bit too happy having my own stove now. but at least i feed myself well. so far. ^_^" oh look, the perfect song playing now... duo's solo "good luck and goodbye"... the perfect example of gundam wing crack singing with BAD ENGRISH. bwahahha! but duo's forgiven since he's on crack and has a nice voice. XD yes. anyway, dinner today was teriyaki salmon soba. yummy! except... now i'm hungry. -_-" maybe i shud get grapes? but i shouldn't eat before sleeping. SHA LA LA. yes. mum was quite happy that i'm still cooking considering that i was stressing her out before she left about cooking. XD hahahaha.
and yay for me, i went and re-edited (again!) the prologue and first chapter of my fic after posting last nite. good thing abt that is that it sounds slightly less cheesy. oh, and i changed the main character's name. and figured out a name for another character. peachy. 2 down, 10,000,0000000000 more to go. i hate naming characters. bad thing abt that is that i'm now tempted to write (slightly) and i've a test coming week after, PLUS the fact that i've edited the same chapters a million times already so. sigh. but at least i've started writing again. XDXD
amy-chan: erm. all those pairing don't fit the song. kaze no machi he is too... sappy for asami x takaba *has coughing fit trying to fit them into the song*, i haven't watched code geass, i haven't read d.gray-man (it muchly sits on my hard drive calling my name. meow) i don't exactly like misa, i hate raito's guts, and L is... cute as he is and should remain a sugar-imbibing attitude problem chibi forevermore. XD sha la la. hehehe. but since it was your birthday ten thousand years ago and i'm itching for something to write (tho i shouldn't) if you come up with a pairing and a situation i like enough, i'll write you a muchly belated b'day fic. ^______________^
ok. shud go and reply sowmya's mail now... and then either sleep or smthg. i shud be listening to my lectures, but there's only so much i can take before i feel like screaming. sigh. maybe i shud try with just 1 HP lecture???? oh i know, i can go print notes! perfect way of killing time. hahahaha. okies. bye!
2:56 AM
Ramble
crap. i hate it when this happens. the perfect song for writing a fic. writing urges. BUT NO PAIRING IN MIND. desu. *bangs head on wall* why's there noone online to bug abt who to write abt when i want to write?!?!?!?!
i shud sleep. i'll sleep soon. maybe i'll ponder a while more and listen to the song on loop. it's 'kaze no machi he' from tsubasa chronicles. and yes i'm addicted to it again. argh. *head desk head desk head desk hole in desk*

Marketing
whee! first time marketing. lesson learnt: never buy the first cheap thing you see. cos there's b ound to be more of the same cheap thing further in the market which look less... dodgy. but still edible.
in other words, i bought 2 batches of grapes cos the first batch was big but looked dodgy. the second batch was smaller but looked more normal. even waku got scared at the amount of grapes i bought. XD bought peaches too, and salmon! so tmr's dinner will be teriyaki salmon (hail those marinades) with soba (if i ca be bothered going to buy soba...) will prob webcast city harvest tmr so won't be going church here... means i'll have to haul my lazy ass out the door to buy soba if i really want some. oh well. see how first.
it rained just now. like wow it rains in melbourne. nothing against cool changes, but i wish that the change wouldn't come when we're just abt to leave the market!!! ya... so had to walk in the rain for a bit, but thank goodness the rain here is much more erractic than back home so it stops eveyr few min. XDXD
ok. gtg eat my lunch now... and then get ready for medal. whee! methinks it'll be fun tonite cos it seems kinda empty. dun need to worry abt my toes getting trampled on by enthu pple. XD will miss you amy-chan.. who else is going to dance with me and try to backlead me??? hahahhaha
and in case anyone actually wanted to know, i went back to sleep after going market. and i overslept by 1.5h. so ya. i just woke up at abt 3. ^_^" ahem. i really wish the snooze button hadn't been invented sometimes... sigh
12:30 AM
Dinner and a miracle
whee! i hereby declare that i can cook curry! to whoever invented curry paste, THANK YOU~! hahaha... but i think i need to work on my estimation. cooked too much again. ^_^" kat kat and amoeba came over as well in the end... lucky he ate already, cos i was really running low on cutlery and plates... and sorry if i came across as grumpy and stuff cos i was kinda pissed off with a certain individual thanks to a comment made (unwittingly i guess) on MSN... so ya. other than that it was all peachy. XDXD
think i scared waku waku at first cos when she knocked on my, i was frying up a storm with the carrots and potatos and i wasn't expecting anyone without them ringing the intercom.. turned out that she'd stalked some random person in thru the door (LALING! you stalker!! you batt. hahahaha) ya... then later goddess tried ringing me while i was on the phone with kat kat and then waku forgot to turn on her phone... so poor goddess was standing outside the main door waiting for someone to ring her cos she'd forgotten my apartment number!!! *rofl* after that she was half dead from hunger so she collapsed on the couch while waku stuffed herself and goddess with timtams. yup. curry turned out better than i expected... considering that i put too much into the pot and had to take out some potatoes after they'd cook to make space for the chicken... got a bit leftover so might eat for lunch/supper tmr i guess??
dance today was crack. tyson stubbed his toe and he was complaining to everyone abt it until i told him that he shud wear a sign... so he made a sign and stuck it on his t-shirt except it fell off after a while... it read "i have a sore toe. please feel for me". then he looked at it and contemplated crossing off the "for". -_-" then we were chatting adn he said that he ran into pete the other day. and then he said that when he first met pete he thot pete was gay, considering that he's 45 and still unmarried. i almost died laughing when he said that. and i wanted to ask if he tried hitting on pete like how he told hooman that he thot he was hot and hooman got quite freaked out, but decided not to. XD haha. after that he was telling me all abt how he dropped nicole while helping her choreograph the really cool routine she did with andrew last year during medal.. and then they were having a discussion of who had bigger thighs and were prodding each other, and then nicole was trying to guilt trip tyson, so tyson ended up worshiping her and kissing her shoe. *falls down* i think his brain got fried by the heat and humidity. anyway, we're aiming to do silver latin at the may medal. hope i can get it in time, if not then i'll do the later one. but yesh, learnt half the samba routine, learning how to do the ankles up and glide action instead of just bobbing up and down. quite fun really. and i didn't fall flat on my face during the spin thingy... altho i think i'll need to tighten my shoes... everytime i step on my heel for the heel-toe turn, i start wobbling cos my foot slides... la la la. but yesh, dance was fun today.
now for the miracle bit... for those who didn't know, i've actually changed my mind abt going back to s'pore for AMS... been having 2nd thots since jan when i was supposed to go to the lab but was made to wait for hours and ended up feeling very ticked off by the whole thing. i raised the issue during the CNY dinner with the jch pple, and one thing jits said which really struck me was that it's not good if the supervisor doesn't care cos it's your project at stake. well, it's not like the prof doesn't care, maybe, but i jsut felt as tho he was kinda wishy washy abt it and not that keen on having me there. and then koala was saying that he'd heard a few 'horror' stories abt pple who'd gone back home for AMS and they had quite a hard time cos their supervisors didn't really know what to do with them... and i'd be the first person to choose that unit and do it in s'pore, so kinda risky there. anyway, that said and done, i mailed the aussie supervisors on tues to tell them that i was having 2nd thots and i'm supposed to meet them next tues to discuss. today i got a mail from the admin co-ordinator. turns out that she'd been in contact with the s'pore supervisor and he actually decided not to accpet me into his lab! i know that sounds like bad news, but seriously, it's a miracle from God!!! cos i'd been praying (rather flippantly i admit) that i get some sort of sign as to where i'm going for AMS and soon, cos i don't want to be still worrying abt where i'm going further into the sem when i got other stuff to think abt, and here's the reply just a fwe days after sending out the mail!! i dunno if the aussie supervisors had told the s'pore side that i didn't really want to go home, but either way, i'm just glad that i'm confirmed to be staying here. and it'll also be less awkward than having to beat ard the bush abt the real reason why i don't really want to go home for research when i meet eh supervisors. XD now all i need to do is sort out the exact details of my project.
so ya, that's the miracle of the day. amazing how God works ya? reminds me of how mum was telling my cousin that God opens doors for us and lets us choose where we want to go. so for me i was given a choice as to where i wanted to go for AMS. at first i wanted to go home and my grades were just below the cut-off but i was given the ok... and after i changed my mind, i still had the option of doing the unit here becos it's actually a local unit with many overseas affiliations. XD so yup. is happy and sleepy and shall now go have happy dreams before going market tmr. nite nite!

Visibility
hmm... i see pple on the 9th floor at their window and... are they looking down? or are they just hanging ard there chatting adn enjoying the breeze. and now i'm wondering how much of my apartment (and me sitting at the table) they can see cos the blind isn't fully drawn. but if i close my blinds the other way, the wind won't come in as much i think. sigh. one thing i don't like abt living in places that face other pple. i hate it when there's pple looking in. but it's either that or get baked in the hot afternoon sun so i guess i'll take pple peering in with a grain of salt... as for the perfect view in my ideal house next time??? no idea. cos i get freaked out by absolute darkness outside my window. i think it's the residual effect of watching x-files when i was too young to understand. i can remember this scene where some monster/werewolf thing comes plunging out the woods to a cabin in the dark. that was so scary to me at that time that when we went to perth for a farmstay holiday when i was 8, i didn't dare to sleep facing the window in case i woke up at night and saw a face peering in at me.
ok i'm starting to scare myself a little now. how on earth do pple enjoy watching scary movies and freaking themselves out that they start jumping at their own reflection, i have no idea. i think i shud go adn write some crap on staph aureus to make myself feel good altho i still don't really want to do my pbl... la la la.
and on a side note, i wonder how far my music travels. does the bass go thru the floor? cos i've turned it up from before in college. sounds better that way and i'm right next to the window so maybe it goes across??? don't care. haven't had any complaints anyway. not that anyone has the means of telling to shut up apart from banging down my door. heee. ok. stop procrastinating and get cracking dammit. the downfalls of unnlimited internet... en-chan discovers youtube. XD
oh, and proof of aussie lecturers being on crack (with reference to how to word a report on finding gonorrhea in culture and how pple don't like being told they have gonorrhea): "it's the same as saying that something's the same height as a giraffe, it looks like a giraffe and has spots like a giraffe but we're not calling it a giraffe."

Cooking up a storm
whee!!! mwahaha... had fried beef mince rice for dinner... and got a bit happy playing with my lettuce and making rice rolls with them. ^_^" ahem. anyway, today was a pretty good day... ICM was entertaining. got a tutor who knows what's she's doing, thank God for that. and she's quite enthu too, so yup, i think i like her. my groups pretty alright too... got some pple from my PBL... pat, ding and azri are in my grp too, so there's some entertainment there. XD halfway thru the interviews the fire alarm went off... and being the good citizens (or international students) we are... we just... sat there. until the fire warden came to our room to tell us to climb down 5 flights of stairs and assmeble outside. my conclusion? if there was a real fire, we'd all be nice and toasty by then. XD haha. ya. so we just hung ard and chatted for abt 10 min, then had to climb back up all the stairs again to continue the tute. not very nice considering how stuffy the damn room is... but hey, we won't freeze during winter if we have to do the abdo exam... must keep tummy-san warm at all times. XDXD
lunch with the crazy med gang and m'sians.... it was insane, all the corniness and crack flying ard... we had vietnamese food and i went high on MSG. well, the noodles don't have as much MSG as the mekong ones, but i was happy enough to go high on it. oh, and tim ended up all alone in nasi lemak house cos he thot we were going there. XDXD hahahaha!!! ahem.
prac after lunch. it was the best prac ever. like i've hardly ever understood the pracs while doing them, so yes, it was good. bacteria as usual, but at least i knew wat was going on... only thing i need to do is remember which bacteria is G-, G+ rod or cocci. -_-" la la la. after prac we all went for ice cream, so it was muchly a day of much eating and merry making... the ice cream was sugary enough to send me, mag, deva and char into a sugar high, much to tim and sam's dismay. XDXD the session ended abruptly when a bird aimed for char's arm and missed by 15cm. that's when we evacuated and went home. XD went to safeway and talked char into buying a bottle of yummy marinade which was on offer. then i went home and had fun cooking and watching tv, and yes i still haven't done PBL shut up. >< tee hee.
waku just rang to ask if the dinner invite still stands, so yes, she and goddess are coming over tmr to watch 'my big fat greek wedding' as well as sample the food at 'en-chan's kitchen'. XD ie: curry paste, coconut milk and a fervent prayer. XD need to go buy the chicken and stuff before dance tmr then... exciting! hope my 3rd time cooking turns out ok... esp compared to the lovely goddess' wonderful culinary skills. *worships* as i told waku, worse case scenario, we can clear out my fridge of the mince beef that i bought today and leave it nice and empty so i can go market on sat and stock up again. XD hopefully the novelty of cooking and grocery shopping won't wear off that soon... char was bringing me on a tour of safeway today... had no idea where all the fresh stuff is located, considering that previously all i needed was the instant soup, bikkie, tea and soap powder sections. XD hahaha. ya. fun laughter peace and joy. okie then. shall go adn do pbl. i aim to sleep by 4am. add oil!!!
ps: amy-chan!! thanks yous muchly for the fic desu. it made me laugh and now i want to reread naruto. DAMN. XD

Ramble
you know i'm bored and really don't feel like studying when i actually start uploading photos onto my friendster account......
and then decide to eat an apple instead of timtams at midnite...
can i declare tmr a holiday? guess not. will rock up to ICM wearing my gimme sugar shirt and hopefully my wish will come true.
mum landed already. and apparently she's now babbling at sis. getting periodical updates via sms... meow. still haven't decided wat's for dinner tmr. today. watever. LA LA LA.
i feel like writing but the words won't come. even my attempts at poetry, and that's surprising cos usually i can churn up the strangest sounding phrases and just post it for fun. -_-" i think maybe i shud just go sleep and be lost in my happy dream world for a little while...
ps: anyone has a mic and doesn't mind hearing me babble at them??? i want to try using msn to talk instead of the phone so maybe mum can call me that way instead...
pps: can't wait for the weekend. so wat if the test is coming closer... it's MEDAL NIGHT! and i think i'm going to try to write something too. had an idea for the original fic which didn't seem as cheesy as the first one... except... i can't remember half of it. -_-" oh the brilliantness of it all.
good night.
