randomness

just some random update.
sigh. nothing much happening these few days.
that's why i dont really bother to update.

basically it's just school stuff all day long.
i have devoted my time to doing tutorials.
haha. and i am well in time for classes.

thursday went with ps and linda to queensway shopping centre.
walked around but didnt manage to find nice sneakers that ps wants.
then end up went to ikea to eat.
had the hotdog bread thing.
then went to the cafe and indulge in chicken wings.
haha. damn sinful. even got myself ice-cream after that la.
oh my oh my.
haha. but it's like finally i'm out somewhere shopping around.
school and hostel kind of make me feel lazy getting around.

today. supposed to have no classes,
but because of the national day holiday, there was make-up class scheduled.
so there was class in the morning.
after that lunched and then went back hostel to start doing my tutorials cos i am too lazy to bring them back home to complete my tutorials over the weekends.
haha. end up after that going for interviews for the cca recruitments.
sigh. i hate interviews.
whatever. can only wait and see for results.

now back at home and i'm tired. bleh.
end up still having to bring a textbook home to do my homework over the weekends.
sigh. aiyo. school is basically mugging.
and i dont feel good not going my tutorials and going there empty-handed.
bleh.
i am a super hopeless mugger!
lalala.

weekends.
whatever it is. some fun?
i certainly hope so.

happy national day

just some random blog entry.

kind of bored.

40 years of nation-building they call it.
indeed, singapore has come a long way.
i dont really feel the joy of national day.
although i really love the fact that it's a special occasion for my country.
not cos it gives me a public holiday break.

it's sad in a way.
years of working. i've missed out years of ndp.
since i was 15. have been working every single public holiday when i can.
to the extent that public holiday mood no longer sets in me any more.

i dont feel the excitement of watching the ndp parade.
although i would really love to watch fireworks at marina south.
i totally have nothing against my country.
i love singapore the way it is.
really. no matter what.
i cant say i am totally passionate and all.
but i like this place. it's indeed somewhere i call home.
somewhere i'm familiar with. afterall, i've spent my life so far here.
i've grown here.
i would love to go to visit other countries and take a chance to look around different parts of the world.
but i know that i would want to come back. so long as the people i treasure are here.
i would come back to this place. where i have fond memories of. where i have my family and friends.

gonna still continue working tmr.
although it's just tutoring for 2 hours.
might just for once sit down and watch ndp and really get into the mood of it.
but well. i might just make use of the time and move back to hostel and spend time alone.
instead of moving in on wednesday.
sigh. thinking through.

whatever it is.
happy 40th birthday, my country, my home, singapore.
happy national day.

豆腐宅急便 gloves to ali


i float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
keys to ignition are like gloves to ali
to and fro, water in the sea, the sunrise is my peace
- repeat

i ride the distance, nature in me
nirvana coming through, with my delivery
to and fro, mountains and the sea, the twilight sets me free
- repeat

have this song uploaded as my bg music. love this man.
from initial d soundtrack.

d&d

just got back home from hall's d&d.
supposed to be dinner & dance.
but for me, it was more of dine & dine.
cos i basically went there to eat.

feel as if i've wasted my money.
not because it's not fun.
but simply because i just go there for this 10 course dinner and that's it.
the bunch of people are staying over, which i am uninterested in. since i'll be tutoring tmr morn.
didnt take pics with people cos like i said, i just sit there and eat and eat.
haha.
kind of dumb.
i'm tired.

feel like sleeping and sleeping but there's tutoring tmr.
gonna spend the weekend doing my tutorials so that i'll be able to catch up with classes next week.

*anti-social, super mugger zhien*

home sweet home

back at home after spending one week in hostel.
haha.
like finally.
i'm home!
hehe. it's good to be home.
everything is just so nice when it's home.

i love my bed.
i love the way the things are at home.
this is gonna be a long break at home.
since next week is gonna be national day.
most probably gonna finish up as much tutorials this weekend and then hopefully i can slack next week.

:) i love being at home!
well, i like being in hostel too.
it's just that. there's no place like home.
*man, i sound super in the mood for ndp!*

Mid pleasures and palaces though we may roam,
Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home.

nonsensical words

here comes junk.
i am bored so i decided that i should just do sthg.
finally got the internet settings done and now i can access websites other than my school webpage using my laptop in the hostel room.
basically for the past 2 nights i only have 5 hours of sleep each day.
feel deprived because i used to sleep double of that.
bleh.
hostel life is getting into place rather slowly.
just that i'm down with flu again since tuesday and now it's still not gone.
rather irritating having to blow the nose every now and then.
argh.
but well.
at least things are going on fine.
i'm doing my tutorials like the day before they are due for classes.
rather last minute but at least i try to get them done.

having class at 1030 today. gonna have 5 hours of class in a row.
gosh.
hope i can keep awake till then.

new additions to my hostel room.
got myself a printer at student's offer price.
which makes things more convenient since now i can print my notes in the room when i have to.
had coloured paper over the board. thanks to linda's contribution.
now my table is a little more colourful.
and of course. my table is like full.
haha. compared to my table, linda's is very spacious. haha.
gosh.

this is my table at the moment. full of stuff?

this is me with my cushion in my hostel room!

schooling

now i'm in my hall's computer lab blogging.
simply cos somehow i cant access other websites other than the school webpage with my laptop in the room.

and i'm in some intensive mugger mode.
i have tutorials due tmr and i've yet to start.
wonderful!
haha. later i'll have to go back to my room and start getting it done before morning class tmr.

made some friends.
now that's it's 2nd day of week 2.
finally found someone with the exact same timetable as me.
interesting!

yesterday was friendship day for hall.
so end up having some campfire thing at 8 pm.
lasted all the way till 10 plus.
then after that had the very first attempt using the hall's washing machine.
and how splendid!
i'm not cut out to use washing machine.
must really start planning my career as they advise us so that i earn enough to hire a maid.
damn damn damn.
but well. it's fun.
then end up doing tutorials till 2 plus am. then have to wake up at 7.30 am today for classes.
gosh.
how hopeless. i'm pia-ing last minute.
*at least the effort is there ok...*

so far so good. having fun living in hostel.
although discipline is really low.
judging from the fact that i've yet to start doing my tutorials for today.
i wonder what i have accomplished.
haha.
day 2 of hostel life. more days to go.
certainly have got to do sthg to make things better.
how superb if i am able to have my work done and get loads of fun at the same time.
sigh. dream on.

whatever. crappy entry.
i wish my laptop is super duper perfect. then now i wont be having a headache over things.
super crap. i'm some computer idiot la.
- . -
this is ultimate torture.
