found an interesting new book to devour.
to quote,
[ After the evening meal was finished and all the bits and pieces put away Anna and i would settle down to some activity, generally of her choosing. Fairy stories were dismissed as mere pretend stories; living was real and living was interesting and by and large fun. Reading the Bible wasn't a great success. She tended yo regard it as a primer, strictly for infants. The message of the Bible was simple and any half-wit could grasp it in thirty minutes flat! Religion was for doing things, not for reading about doing things. Once you had got the message there wasnt much point in going over and over the same old ground. Our local parson was taken aback when he asked her about God. The conversation went as follows:
'Do you believe in God?'
'Yes.'
'Do you know what God is?'
'Yes'
'What is God then?'
'He's God!'
'Do you go to church?'
'No.'
'Why not?'
'Because I know it all.'
'What do you know?'
' I know to love mister God and to love people and cats and dogs and spiders and flowers and trees', and the catalogue went on, '- with all of me.' ]
[ The whole business of adults going to church filled Anna with suspicion. The idea of collective worship went against her sense of private coversations with Mister God. As for going to church to meet Mister God, that was preposterous. After all, if Mister God wasnt everywhere, he wasnt anywhere. For her, Church going and 'Mister God' talks had no necessary connection. For her the whole thing was transparently simple. You went to church to get the message when you were very little. Once you got it, you went out and did something about it. Keeping on going to church as because you hadn't got the message, or didnt understand it, or it was 'just for swank'. ]
no, it is not some religious parody or some book mocking the catholic faith yada yada. its a book that makes you think.

went gymming in the evening with al and damian today.
i came early so i was just running aimlessly on the treadmill. decided to try stoning to make time pass faster. hence, was staring at some blades of grass for fifteen minutes. i think at some point in time my thoughts just wandered to "why the hell am i running anyway". if i had a choice id definitely be stoning some place else. anyhow. i decided that its was solely based on my eating habits and how i tend to pile up on calories over long weekends. haa well. fat-managing is rather tiresome.
sometimes i dread going to town. you see all the oh-so -slim people with oh-so-slim thighs who look terribly nice in jeans. mlurf. why i am even rambling about this. who said that 'slim' was good and 'fat' was bad anyway. who defines what looks nice and what doesnt anyway! for all you know 'fat' could be beautiful. soceity is too influential for its own good. it brainwashes people. but then again. society IS made of people. so is it that people brainwash other people?
blah.
anyhoww. i was reading something about 'perfection'.
"why cant everything be perfect? we'd all be happy then"
au contraire in my opinion. i always thought of perfection as being rather fake. its unreal. a world where everyone is naturally happy and everything's fine just seems so idyllic, its scary. sure, with perfection in the world everyone would be nice, caring. peaceloving; there'd be no wars, no calamity, no sadness , no stress no pain no suffering. life would be a bed of roses.
but i guess all this 'imperfection' is rather important and can be dealt with in a positive way, right? death lets us appreciate life, calamity allows us to view mother nature's proress. sadness creates opportunities for happiness, as does stress for relaxation. as does pain for relief, as does dejection for hope. i always thought that all experiences: good and bad, mould one's character and allow one to live life to its fullest. die without regrets.
so, thank you adam and eve for eating the forbidden apple.
imperfection's cool.

Close my eyes and move to the back of my mind
The worries are washed out to sea
See the changes, people's faces blurred out
Like sunspots or raindrops
Now all those feelings, those yesterdays feelings will all be
lost in time
but today ive wasted away for today is on my mind
Left the only worries I had in my hands
Away from the light in my eyes
Holding tight and try not to hide how i feel
Now feelings mean nothing
All those feelings, those yesterdays feelings will all be lost
in time
but today I've wasted away for today is on my mind
I can't get a worry
I'm feeling so lonely
Breaking apart all this love in my heart
Close my eyes and move to the back of my mind
Where feelings mean nothing
All those feelings, those yesterdays feelings will all be lost
in time
But today I've wasted away, for today is on my mind
I can't get a worry
I'm feeling so lonely
breaking apart all this love in my heart

all i wanted to say was i love you and i'm not afraid
can you hear me?
nothing much happened. ms teo never came for p.e, mr teh's back and fully quipped with functions, we did art during english (oral) and mrs fam gave her usual lectures.
it feels so abnormally normal.
sweet raptured light it ends here tonight

lesson plan today:
PLR- was writing in gill's book while mr fam was talking about god, jesus yadda yadda. i swear he says the same thing every week.
CME: was doing this english worksheet. so i wont have to bother about it anymore. never did listen to mrs yip during cme periods.
AMATHS: i was reading adelene's chinese novel. took it from lynn. haha!. only pretended to do some math when mr teh came around. and he keeps calling me "si ying" =.=
ENG: urhm... we were stoning. mrs siow was talking and saying how she loved coming to teach at 3/3 coz we all listen to her and keep quiet. (we're actually all stoning)
GEOG: well. the only lesson i actually did something regarding the lesson in progress. hee.
went to see ms low after school. i guess i cant go facil the chalk art thingo since i have chinese oral. oh joy!
JAP CLASS: was eating these jap pea snack things. was laughing 75% of the time. maybe because of that dude at the back who kept speaking so loudly :|
INSPIRATION. a1 by tmr. eep.

have you forgotten?
today was a kinda crappy day.
first of all, i woke up early (830. early for me anyway.) although i was planning on sleeping in. then, my plan to meet
ning and nasha for lunch was wrecked for a while when my parents came home with lunch for me even though i totally asked them not to get me anything. BUT. i didnt eat anyway. met nasha and
ning at j8, stoned at yoshi with two pathetically minute/puny salmon seaweed onigiri. which didnt have any salmon in them at all. (even though i totally utterly abhore salmon and all. well.)
met felicia soon after i got my beloved tiramisu from crystlejade bakery. and i realised i had told her that we were leaving slightly before 2PM when i actually meant 130PM. haha. after-effects of stoning at home drawing comics for aep.
took the mrt. changed train twice. it really IS a bloody pain getting to the airport by public transport (cept for cabs. you dont have to change cabs now, do you?)
reached T2. loitered around burger king, as usual. like we did with sonn and nic.
its such a depressing place.
anyhow. said goodbye to gill earlier than the rest, since al and i had to leave for dreaded cath. (we were actually ready to pon, but well. god called. hahaa). i cant believe im never gonna see gill for that long.
she wont be there to laugh at stupid shigure and his stupid antics.
meh. another member of our CCE posse gone.
anyhow. bible quiz was hilarious. not the quiz itself, but the total whacked zealous behaviour of everyone in the room. they were totally EFFUSIVE. ENTHU. it was funny. krys was like our runner, with clare and danny. i was being lazy with al. hahahaa.
we got mnm's! and my darling potato stars.
yippee.
loves
ning and al to bits. <3
being randomly random. dont ask why.
baa.
havent been in touch with nic. com screwed? maybe. and it still hasnt fully sunk in. -.- maybe im just wols.
hang in there, aden. she would want you to be happy (:
catch me as i fall
say youre here and its all over now. 3

ahh. i need a good run.
and its 2am.
i must be turning psychotic. but that isnt really a bad thing. you say stuff and do things to your own liking. dance to the beat of your own drum and no one will think otherwise.
youre a psycho, anyway.
and i can join veronika in villete.
yay for the mad ones.
Posted by coffeecup at 03:03 AM on July 10, 2005.
is it just me or does staying up till 3am reading about psychotic people make you totally weirdly think about totally weirdly mundane things?
not that i have anything against psychotic people, mind you.
its all cool.

things runing through my mind right now-
1) BIBLE- basic instructions before leaving earth
2) they shouldnt fry spinach with those ghastly looking shrimps.
3) the best way to die is through electroconvulsive therapy.
shock- lightheadedness- nothing.
4) homework overload. makes me feel like procrastinating :D

i was super tired today. and i couldnt even sleep before school started coz i had to complete chinese, which i couldnt complete over the weekend since i was busy with aep stuff -.-
anyhow. at least it was pretty slack during lessons. i was practically sleeping in mr teh's lesson and ms tan came in to take us for PC. she was telling us how adults and kids/teens nowadays dont click because of difference in upbringing, and how they dont get along as well because the adults dont make the effort in trying to understand what makes us teens tick. and then we told her about handphones, sms and blogs. and how we love town and mago and zara and all. she was like "you all dont go to isetan?"
"NOOOOO."
and she was telling us about values and how all american tv shows and movies have a common factor. " first frame, boy meets girl. second frame, boy is interested in girl and vice versa. third frame. takes place in a dark BEDroom where they show their love. uhm. HORIZONTALLY"
hahaha. she ate up half of mr armstrong's lesson.
then when he came in he was like.
"so you all dont like isetan?"
"NOOOO."
" why not? isetan is COOL man. its HAPPENIN"
"but its so expensive!"
"go during SALE lah. "
hahaha. then he asked us to take out enemy of the people.
" should we do this now or on friday"
class-" friday!"
"then what are we supposed to do now"
mag-"chit chat!"
"....... OHKAY. lets chit chat"
hahaa. we have the coolest lit teacher lah.
mr armstrong- "SO. has anyone watched fantastic four yet?"
-a few people raise their hands. including mag.
"MAG WATCHES MOVIES?? -GASP"
HAHA.
physics after that. mr yap was at some bowling competition (no, he doesnt bowl. the school bowlers.) so we had a double free period. which evelyn and i spent looking at the SJI yearbook sam brought to school. hahahaha. saw mrs fam in it. she lost a lot of weight from then.
aep was draining. i have to remember to sleep earlier on sundays next time. the lady who came to train us in flash animation was kinda boring. hahahaa. the only plus side of this lesson was that we could use the computer. which means the internet. and we found great joy in blasting joecartoon in the lab, vulgarities intact. ms low and the trainers dont seem to mind. hahahaa. val and i were hysterical.
ning was too. but then again, she always is :P

little black babies floating around in limbo.
school: was ohkay i guess. slept during phy, not in math though :D. markedly an improvement to my sleeping habits in school. p.e was pretty engaging- ms teo was talking to us about building up muscles and what kind of exercise you can do to improve this muscle and that muscle. and what kind of food we're supposed to eat. you know, its actually best to eat SIX small meals a day (two of them including a substantiable amount of carbo) instead of three full meals? its supposedly better to NOT eat till youre full, coz it expands your stomach and your appetite increases.
EO was boring. slept through that too. i listened in hcl though. since lao shi was talking bout the oral and giving us tips and all. in the fifteen minutes of geog (before leaving for oral) mrs fam was talking to us about how its not her fault that we find her teaching us such a mixed up chunk of geog at the same time and how she has to jump to monsoon tropical climate in the midst of explaining monsoonal seasons because theyre inter related =.=.
chinese oral sucked. i screwed it up =<
the passage was ohkay. but the first xing wen bao dao thing, i misheard what one of the teachers said. The topic was on how theres someone who beat up a child and the mother of that child took revenge on the dude and beat him up. then she got charged in court. but i heard it as the MOTHER beating HER CHILD up for hitting someone else. thank god the teacher corrected me in time and i could talk about the correct info.
the ri chang hua ti was the worst. we had to talk about how "chuan tong jie ri and han yi jian jian xiao shi" i said abit and had more to voice out but i kept on stammering and pausing and couldnt phrase it in proper chinese. DARN. and one of the examiners was totally scary. she kept looking at you unflinchingly with those large eyes which make you view your terrible future as a mondo black hole of impending doom. ;____;
well, at least its over.
behind the scenes of chinese olevel oral students

But where will you go, With no one left to save you from yourself
You can’t escape--
You can’t escape.
just another day in the life of.
started yet another weekday morning in school, aka prison where education system abdroids hack ideas and theories into your brain, in which only 1% actually comes into use. to quote, who ever goes to a supermarket to buy potassium anyway? who ever has great satisfaction in finding the centre of mass of a metre rule? or goes around plotting the amount of polyesterene bobs per cm square of a beanbag?
PLR, boring. as usual, no one was listening to mr fam talk. spent precious time reliving childhood memories with val via means of pen, stray foolscap paper, names of hot guys, and origami skills. keep in mind- -am destined to live in the UK with drew fuller with donald trump money for 50 blissful years :D .
CME was the usual stoning time- when mrs yip came into class we were already in full preparing-to-sleep mode. she came in, as usual, to touch on our cme topic but ended up straying off topic and telling us about past autobipgraphies she had read and the lives of several presidents of the united states. note to self- never ever teach in hong kong for 20 years.
mr teh was being mr teh, this time he s taken a leaf out of mrs fams book and started mixing emath and amath together. probably doesnt comprehend the weight of both books- even though he was the one who wrote them =.=. was half asleep, half reading i dont know how she does it.
recess was fine. remembered to sit at table less prone to finding strange organisms floating in your drink.
ss test was terrible. must remember to try memorising every single bloody detail of the iraq bloody war and about bloody diplomacy and deterrence. oh, and the united bloody nations. (no offence meant. just a figure of speech)
geog was pure confusion. mrs fam went on and on about hemispheres and maximas while my head was somewhere along the lines of what kate did next . its not my fault the book is so engaging.
went to sgh.
then dropped by home and grabbed jap stuff and highly nutritional mushorom swiss double cheesburger (HAH. who am i trying to kid)
and went to bishan cc. jap was ohkay, the norm. just being the usual noisy, unattentive inconsiderate lot. nearly got thrown out of the room by sensei for malfeasance xD. not that he would actually. he s too soft. and also because we bribe him with yummy cakes and puffs every week.
hoho.
mental note: never ever pack thursdays with activities after school.feel brain cells diminishing at an alarming rate.
I can hear you when you whisper
But you can’t even hear me screaming

am currently half-brain dead from over exposure to chinese and classical music. the examiners should consider placing our o level listening compres on another staion, oh say, class 95? it would help greatly if we werent falling asleep just before the exam due to soothing classicals =.=
we were terribly delighted to leave class at 115 though. an hour for lunch before reporting for the exam. missed one period eng and another of ss :D :D :D :D :D (no mrs fam today!)
ate crystaljade spongecake during recess. HOHO.
school was ohkay. got home before the rain started.

ning: this is your song (in reference to your post)
Sometimes I get so weird
I even freak myself out
I laugh myself to sleep,it's my lullaby
Sometimes I drive so fast
Just to feel the danger
I wanna scream it makes me feel alive
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please
(NOT that im saying youre weird.=.= hahaha)
al:
I wake up in the morning
Put on my face
The one that's gonna get me
Through another day
Doesn't really matter
How I feel inside
'Cause life is like a game sometimes
And here I am
Pouring my heart onto these rooftops
Just a ghost to the world
hoho. ripped the lyrics idea from
ning.
The door cracks open
But there's no sun shining through

I'm going under
Drowning in you
woke up at 745 am and rushed to school (dad sent). got harry potter.
SCORE!
then went home and started reading right away (actually i started in the bus)hohoho. first few bits slightly dry, but who cares? ploughed on anyway. by lunch time i was already done with 200 over pages.
called
ning and arranged to meet at bishan mrt platform at 330. ended up meeting her at 4. HAHA. she was wearing her seems-vulgar-but-actually-not- tee. hahahaa. and jeans! we were all adorned in jeans and tanktops. cept for krys (whom we met later at heeren) and danny who were in tees.
took a train to city hall and walked trough citylink. rushed into breadtalk to get nice, piping hot chicken and mushroom pie things. then turned the corner towards esplanade and bought shocolate coated strawberries with krys :D
baybeats wasnt bad. not bad at all. we reached and went to the moshpit place and decided that it would get too warm and claustrophobic in there, so we sat on the railings xD. couldnt stop proclaiming how UBER HOT the lead singer of set for glory was. HOHO. it was rather warm, the weather. otherwise it would have been nice.
after set for glory, we walked along the area pass the chillout place and to the "village", helping krys fing her set for glory album. moohoo. couldnt find it. wanted to buy the baybeats 2005 shirt but decided not to in the end.
never found the CD and krys had to go for dinner. so she left and just at that time who comes walking along but eyecandy and company! called krys immediately and she rushed back. HOHO. hung around that area a bit. caught a glimpse of
ning's camp instructor too. HEH.
in the end, krys "couldnt find a cab" and decided to stay on and not go for dinner. we ambled around aimlessly (performances cancelled due to bad weather) and came to a stop in the middle of the 'village' and the popcorn cart. got startled 21 times by the gun salute just across the river and started taking photos of well. EVERYTHING.
decided to have a toilet party. meehee. played around with krys' beads a bit. val looked like a buddhist traveller with them on her outfit. ahahaha.
then. walked around aimlessly a bit longer and went to the aircon link and sat by the corner, near the escalator. took more pics,
ning did my eyes with krys' MAC. hoho.
had to go then. left with unie and danny.
left unie at somerset and shuffled around j8 for a bit with danny. moo. parents picked me up at the taxi stand
and here i am.
Don't want your hand this time ;I'll save myself
Maybe I'll wake up for once.

Even though I'm the sacrifice,
You won't try for me, not now.
had to wake up early- 8am on a sunday morning . met mai, selina and han at the bus stop outside school and made our way to cjc hostel. (brought darling harry potter along)
went to the study room and revised the skit script, shortened it and decided on costumes. then we rehersed till 12 and took 105 to tp central. left selina to meet some friends at city hall then bought some vanguard from popular with mai and han. ate at macs after that and did the placards.
left for home.
showered, left for church. met al ben danny krys and majella at macs (macs again =.=) at bout. 350? hahaa. strolled back to church to room 0302 and sat down while mrs krygsman was talking. got sorted into our various ministries and then did some reflection thingo.
dismissed. saw ms shanthi and mrs tan from the top and waved. ms shanthi tried to escape. too bad since hs is swarming with ijtp girls xD
went for mass with majella damian abel and adam were being terribly noisy and the lady in front of us was highly annoyed.
abel and damian were being gay. grabbing each others hands during father david's sermon. sheesh. get a room! hardcore. HOHO.
left for macs (not again) then cabbed back with damian and abel.
You won't cry for my absence, I know -
You forgot me long ago.

that all would change, i can't complain
another victim of the game.
school- PE was actually fun. we did some dancing. it was rather embarrassing for a particular reason for me and jaclyn. hoho.
was totally lost during amath, untill mr teh was nice enough to go through the same kind of questions again and again. got the concept.
recess was cool. didnt go to the stone benches today though- too wet.
ate loadsa chilli. paid the price. had to steal barley from darling sherryy. xD
left class at 115. met mai han and selina and changed into the blazers. (they are so warm and thick its not even funny) was raining, so the nice security guard lent us an umbrella :D
were the first to reach st margs. had to loiter outside the conference room a while since they hadnt opened the room yet.
competition started only at 4. screwed up the second part of rapid fire round, did well in te items thingo and the take a stand was rather messy. (try reciting a 10+minute script in 5 minutes.) and emerged overall 3rd place xD
HOHO.
exchanged emails with the fairfield team. theyre nice people. (:
close my eyes, just for tonight
the sun still sleeps, and when she wakes
you'll be a memory;
you'll be a memory

Walking away I see the pain
You put me through
today was ohkay. chem first period, ms champion didnt appear. so the guy-relief-teacher-who-always-stands-at-the-door-throughout-the-period came. yes. did math.
next was double math. had the test. mann. functions suck :(
i think i flunked the test- barely comprehended the questions -.-
double lit next. yet another test- unseen poem. the poem was good. i especially liked the ending part "her smile was red." or something. niceee.
(no,
ning, al, i am NOT morbid. speak for yourselves!)
recess. PIG OUT. then went to the stone benches.
ning/krys/al were singing powerpuff girls themes, mainly "love love love lalalovee, lalalovee, makes the world go roundd. " :D they added in some actions. hahahaa. our heart is on the right side (
ning!!??)
double chinese. did the format for si han/ gong han. for the whole double periods. imagine the amount of transparencies we wasted.
double english. went through hol hw (after. uhm. quite a bit of procrastination) and the vocab worksheets. mrs fam was telling us how she holds us in such high regard. when we sleep/stone during lesson. hmm. strange.
ss. mrs fam did fishbowl for separation/merger. i wasnt paying attention. heh.
after school, quickly cut out the letters to "fruitquest" and stuck them onto white backings and then onto the cardboard fruit shapes. went down to the carpark and helped set up the stall, ie hang the cardboard.
was rather precariously balanced on a deck reaching out to string the yarn through. x__x
left at rounf four while val/unie/
ning were filling out the pear posters.
went to bukit batok. thinned down my hair at the hairdresser's.
home.
lost in your game to change the same
Forever gone, forever you

I've been looking in the mirror for so long.
That I've come to believe my soul's on the other side.
once again, lazy to blog.
July 24th, 2005
Posted by coffeecup at 03:39 PM on July 24, 2005.
ohkay, call me morbid but i was just wondering what happens when i die.
what happens? i mean, obviously your body stops functioning. but what really happens? do you just remain unconscious for eternity? will i even be conscious enough to register that i have died? i it just a deep sleep? or maybe something to do with astral projection; will my soul be detatched from the body and float around? what would i feel?
its like killing an ant. the ant just gets squashed and dies. but what does it really feel? can it feel at all? does death just sweep over us and leave us as just a body left to decompose? what about heaven? this is bad but even if im catholic im not sure that there is really a heaven. its such a commercialised place, yet no one can be 100% sure that there is a heaven right?
so here i am, wondering what would become of me when i die. i guess its one of those questions where you d never really know until you try.
touchwood, but what if i just die. like that. dead. in the middle of nowhere and just suddenly lose my life. would i be like one of those lingering spirits they talk about, not ready to ascend to a "high place" because of unfinished business? that would be rather weird. even just thinking about it. will i haunt my room? would i even be conscious of what im doing?
i dont wanna die yet but i really want to find out.
"im dying to find out". hurr. pardon the pun.
all that rambling and wondering and im left at where i started.
time may dull our minds; death will take us all.

I feel like I'm dragging you down a one way street;
I don't know which ways up
left school just after recess. down with hayfever/ flu again. yipee! =.=
this is bad. i ve been taking all these vitamin C rich foodstuff since i came home. oranges, apples, bananas, and some other stuff which i just couldnt help nicking: chocolate (yes, cadburry cherry ripe xD) cake and biscuits. perhaps one of them would have some strange mystical cure to combat nose sensitivity.
sorry
ning! skipping aep today. still sneezing. ugh.
(*%^$@$!&%#(^$)*^%@)_Y&%$#!$(T^#!!!
Don't push love away,

went to the dentist today. skipped first half of school.
they told me that if i were to have braces, i d have to go through a surgery to adjust and cut my jaw. and i'd be put under general anesthesia and put under observation for 5 days.
my mom was totally against general anesthesia. apparently, it doesnt numb just your jaw, but your whole body. so you re pretty much a temporary vegetable. and hospitalised for FIVE DAYS???
moo. and i cant have the braces if i dont undergo the surgery, because apparently my jaw will protrude out even more and will be more unbalanced than it is. ah well. i ve been put on the waiting list. so ive got three years to decide.
we'll see how it goes.

Where has my heart gone
Trapped in the eyes of a stranger
my day was ohkay.
PLR was, well. plr. mr fam repeated what he did last week again. hurr. not an exact copy but along the same lines. it was total wth???
and he photocopied a passage from the bible (about the woman who committed adultery) and at the sides it was totally black. waste of ink. mehh.
CME, ms chye took over mrs yip. THANK GOD. she was here to talk about sex and sexuality. and we were doing stereotypes of maculinity and femininity. and how such traits like shopping for hours and moving in groups of the same gender were more characteristic of females, and that it would be strange if guys did that. HAHAA. well, there are exceptions to this....
-cough.
amaths. MATRICES. hoho. fun.
geog was pretty boring until the last 10 minutes or so. mrs fam was talking about seasonal changes of temperature and then all of a sudden we were chatting about how much the prime minister/ other ministers in singapore earn per month. yes, major digression. but it was quite funny. she actually told us roughly how much they earn a month. its like WHOA. and then switched to holiwood stars like jennifer aniston and how she earns ONE MILLION per episode of FRIENDS, and then mrs fam started doing these WERID hand actions. like some indian dance kinda actions. and she tried doing this jennifer anniston pose: she was lamenting on how jennifer earns a million bucks for sitting and pouting. and she herself imitated jennifer and pouted on the teachers table. HAHAHA.
it was hilarious. and it didnt help that she was doing those hand action thingies. and then we lapsed into silence as she shuushed us into prayer mode. her prayer was super duper funny:
" dear lord, please forgive me for making these girls envious. please also distribute the wealth more evenly. amen."
HAHAH. she d make a good CME teacher.
ohkay, jap class.
we were having a bit of trouble pronouncing 'makudonarudo' (mcdonalds) in this sentence. it was pretty funny coz we were able to say the rest of the sentence fluently, until we got to that part then kept pausing and stuff. sensei was quite exasperated xD.
MA-KU-DO-NA-RU-DO.
anyhow. my left knee scab was oozing this liquid thing all through the day. eve said it was pus, but pus cant be that transparent, right? i think its plasma. hurr. BIO STUDENTS!

Et triumphator nobilis,
Dulcedo ineffabilis,

woke up earlier than expected, pertaining to the fact that i slept at one reading geog when nothing went into my head at all. waste of bloody time, if you ask me.
went for legion, did reporting. so official. hoho.
then met up with the rest for 11am mass, then lunch at the prata place. oooh BEEHOON GORENG.
journey of faith: i was paired up with a faith formatee, jia ying. she s pretty nice, albeit 2 years my senior. haha. the tour was boring, no surprise there. i wasnt expecting much. and amy has an obsession for taking pictures. i tell ya, the woman is nuts!
anyhow, didnt board the bus bound for holy spirit. got ice cream with danny
al and ben. strolled along singpore river. so romantic <3
hurr hurr.
the ice cream melted really fast and spilled all over. thank god i didnt go buy one. stole from danny/ al instead. :D
went to j8. contemplated on going to cine, but decided that its too.. TOWN.
so yes, yoshinoya beckoned. yumm. ben left halfway. so danny and i accompanied
al around j8 till her mom came at bout 645.
came home after that. functions!
pisshh. functions are evil. they are so unsexy. xD
And when I close my eyes it's you I see
currently feeling: quite happy, actually (: 3
hurr>
