The good news is I'm recovering!

and the bad (?) news is I probably am going to "periodically" vanish.
blogging apparently was the first thing i striked off my list while trying to better time-manage.

aiesec took me in.

In Search of Excellence Workshop
31 August 2006
SR3.1, SMU School of Business Level 3
7.30pm - 9.30pm

they're opening this up to everyone, so just make your way down to SMU if you're interested . $4 per person though; refreshments will be provided.

fine. i'm coughing away already. did i mention i absolutely hate this stage?

havent been feeling too great lately with all the sticky phlegm choking up my respiratory. i gave friday school a miss, feeling no guilt; maria said i didnt miss anything anyway.


next marches another school of soldiers under
skies in the darkest stretch of dusty streetlane water
the hardened hearts of lovers waiting back in their
homeland where the sun did laugh much harder

when the colours dis-appear

























i should pick up painting again.

emcc wants me
already a nusps life-long member
aiesec's interview went well
i'm in case competition
i'm also volunteering for kent ridge's conservations

i'm just a crazy freshie who's doing a level 2 module
i'm screwed. am i?

haha whatever. take life easy :)

that was 23 aug. and it's ucc, NOT a club. the band was alright, but the company i got was better.

the best time to fall sick is interview day, believe me.

i throw my doddle at you, you decipher it for me.

it's been long since i last felt this shagged.
woke up on the wrong side of bed. maybe.

diet is paper and ink. not too surprising.

saturday calls for a break.

siew khoon said that Girls should always leave their paper bags open, or else they might turn into dried raisins!
uh-oh, she did warn me against talking bad about her.

i confess i added in the raisin part myself. but still... ????

i guess i miss travelling and having abundant time on hand.

they all say it's the "honey moon" period right now. hm, they are the gurus, they must be right. i mean school isnt really school without the assignment factor. just yet.

i'm having fun (probably a little, it's a good sign). there are so many exciting things the school is offering and i'm busily wanting to be part of everything. and then i sit in front my of diary every night, wondering how am i ever going to put everything down. it's crazy. 4 years is short, and that is if i made it into my honors year, and i really want to outlive myself.

the question again is, How. how am i going to stretch my 24 hours.

i'll blow it big at cali-fitness with this debit card. AND, this time they'd better process it right.

IF my source is reliable, so dont sue me if im wrong, NUS has dropped to 30+ in world ranking, and NTU to 70 something.

does this necessarily indicate a drop in the quality of our education? (dis-quality, i call it. but i dont see how is this ever possible though)
or were/are we too complacent?

it's time we do something about the THING we all know: the world IS catching up.
the question now is How.




i've had my day, did everything i wanted to do. beds calling!

cultural studies in the morning was comic-al, literally. almost like sitting through a bananas in pajamas short clip (is 2 hours really short? anyway,) with 2 lecturers blabbering almost at the same time.
we are supposed to be reading comics, like mann and superman, and listen to funky music, watch the tele and of course party for the rest of this sem.
it sounds exciting, yes, but we'll see.

these photos are actually old stuff, but i have to have something to try on i'm new to picasa.

perhaps i should spend my time on something more meaningful than this. 

_____ are pieces of meaningless impossible-to-understand symbols. i only strolled through 2 paragraphs in 4 hours.



































the Gobstoppers got really mischievous.















































at the end of my reading, i learnt that they taste as good as they look.

i havent done that before; it's so experimental.
3 weeks, make me or break me.

OOPS.
if only number plates all comes inverted
wouldnt that be fun?

there are butterflies in my stomach and i wonder who had let them in.

today has been almost moodless, apart from the stomach affair. well, at the very least i had a little bit of self satisfaction, from doing those long overdue chores.

i was diligently sorting out my CDs, and i realised i could have saved myself another $500. oh well.



to be honest, the thought of school is pretty intimidating.
if this isnt too much to ask for, i wish i can keep running into nice people.

i have a collection of night photos to share but,
sleep is much more important. so i'll just leave this with you guys for the night.
























pretty self explanatory. but it's so not happy national day.

these photos have been more than a month. but since i've just met up with them; and there's no other photos taken recently that resemble us better than the literal meat balls and greedy balls, so they are up!

uncles like to flirt.

all hail exploring school, we will chomp our way home tomorrow.

sometimes we are so close to heaven.

it's black and white day, and the not-so-vibrant sunflower seeds.

looks at time. i'll get to sleep for 4 and a half hours if i'm going to assist them in flagging.

i'm fighting these days like a soldier. all burnt and shagged, i just have to say no to going freshmen induction ceremony because i NEED to stay in and sleep my day away tomorrow.

so i thought i was all ready for school, ready to be REALLY passionate about tertiary education and i thought i'm perfectly fine with walking around school with myself and myself,
and then suddenly i see, i'm ready for nothing at all.
many times today, when we were still bumming around at fur's place, one fat happy and appreciative worm tickled the sides of my tummy. around my bunch of folks all, i can let it all go.
it's not about the people really, i MADE myself carry a bag of burden to the school that i'm in right now (though it hasnt really started, but still..). the burden felt as heavy as being told to walk around naked. i fear judgement (even though theres such a high probability that no one has even noticed you). who doesnt. it's all going crazy!

haiya,
actually my days at the orientation going on pretty fine. i've met great people. i just love my folks more.

ok. greens make people feel happier. so there goes.

remember to award yourself with your biggest grin. =D for transforming thyself into one kiasu folk who's still bidding at 3 am in the morning!































if my bids are successful, i'll be doing principles of marketing, managerial economics, operations management, introduction to statistics and financial accounting for one whole semester.

someone please enlighten me, why is legal envionment of business so popular?! someone's nuts to have actually bidded his 500+ points away, out of his only 650 bid points, just for that one particular module.
tell me, is that person crazy or am i missing out on something?

the programme starts at 9 but heck, i've already decided to give tomorrow's morning half of the orientation a miss because i've had enough talks. and i really need to pump myself up for late afternoon's math lecture and sat's sentosa outing.

speedboat yang is looking just like just one of those overgrown terrapins, and spots/stripes (whichever it is i cant remember cos it was nel who named them) is equally small in comparison. i have to mention that they both started out the same size. it's a terrapin eat terrapin world..
well, if you follow my stuff, you should be wondering whatever happened to scratched-back ying. but well if you dont know what the hell i'm talking about, the very suggestive partner of yang, ying, died a day after my last at beanie's. oh yes, it's sad i know.


i matriculated today; got bullied today. because we are freshmen what else. a tonn of flyers was agreesively shoved into our faces and i took almost an entire hour throwing them out. salute to this new form of harrasement.

and back in china, similar sales tactics were spotted. and it's nothing exaggerated. the lesson is,
you should NEVER pick up ANY flyer from ANYone along ANY streets in chengdu. because if you do, a SWARM of people will simultaneously dumb flyers on you. the shock you're then in only allows you to stand obediently frozen with both receiving arms, and laugh a helpless laugh. to them, you're just one of a better smelling bins around.

congrates me. sch's starting much earlier than i'd thought.

urgh, fill me up with words people!
now i am tempted to get me a personalised card too because the actual thing is SO adorable.
oh. i forgot that the person in it must be adorable too. so i dont qualify? =\
