What is your Perfect Major? (PLEASE RATE ME!!<3) created with QuizFarm.com |
Haha. I got this from Kelly's blog. OMG. Dance. Haha. Well, I did spend 10 years learning ballet. So I guess it's pretty accurate. Look at all the majors I scored 100% in. Absolutely nothing like the Computer Engineering I'm doing.
Shh, it's..here..

That's it. End of recess week. Man, I want more. Like Kelly said, we should be given a recess month instead of a recess week. I'm far from completing what I've set out to do during the week. I have yet to get my new supply of contact lenses. Hair still needs touching up. I still have no new school bag. And I didn't get as much revision done as I'd wanted to.
I did get the opportunity to enjoy myself a bit though. KTV on Wednesday was fun. I was just there for a couple of hours but I enjoyed myself. Didn't know any Chinese songs though. Haha. KTV on my birthday was the best. No Chinese songs! Well, actually there was one...
I also got to meet up with Leng Sim for lunch. I just love catching up with old friends. She gave me a whole bunch of very pretty accessories as my very belated birthday present! That made me happy alright. And Ichiban Sushi's good. Yumm...
Shopping yesterday was okay. Pretty disappointed that I couldn't find a nice bag that I could use for school. No nice shoes as well. I ended up buying a Metallica DVD which is pretty cool. I always step out of HMV with a list of CDs I wanna get. This time round it's...
-KT Tunstall's new album
-Megadeth's United Abominations
-The new Apocalyptica one
-That one by HIM. Can't remember the title.
-Nightwish's Oceanborn. And Dark Passion Play when it's released here.
My solo for Adeste Fideles is a killer! Woo hoo! I can't wait till I have the time to learn it properly! Will school work just go away, please...
This coming week's gonna be hell. Lab report due Monday, Computer Networks lab also on Monsay, Database lab on Tuesday, business plan due Thursday. Damn. And I have 3 8.30am days! Damn again. Gonna get working on the business plan now. I'll be in front of my laptop all day today.
Sigh... Recess week, I bid you goodbye...

I'm back in school for remedial. There's a session going on every day but I'll just be attending today's. Maybe tomorrow's. I definitely wouldn't be travelling for 3 hours a day during my precious recess week.
I'm supposed to be studying but here I am blogging. Oh well. I'll hit the books tonight. There's a business plan to do, Database lab stuff and another lab report. Just kill me. Sigh... I need to find a place to study. Home has too many distractions, school is too far and boring. Bishan library is nice but too crowded. Gah... I might just study in church. I dunno. But it gets kinda lonely if I don't have company. Room #03-02 is really big. And I'm really small.
I need lunch but I don't wanna eat alone. It just feels weird especially in school. I like being alone. I like to go book and CD shopping alone. I like to go jogging at Bishan Park alone. I like to attend Mass alone. I like walking along the waterfront at Esplanade alone. And yes, I do eat alone sometimes. Just not in school. Don't ask me why. I have no idea.
KTVing tomorrow! Yay! Yes, I know. I just listed out all the work I have to do this week. But oh well. A night of fun just sounds too tempting. Haha. What's wrong with me? I foresee myself slogging my ass off rushing to meet deadlines after that.
I've got a big blister on my big toe and it hurts. Haha. Yes. Big Toe. I hurt! Ouch!
Shh, it's..here..

You know, I really have to make full use of this recess week. To catch up on work and to take a break. I know I sound like I'm contradicting myself. But that's exactly what I plan to do. To catch up and take a break, I mean. Not to contradict myself.
Marketing section of business plan's half done! Well, not really actually. There's still stuff that needs to be discussed with the rest of the group. You know what? Marketing is really interesting! I've been pouring over Sarah's Marketing textbook for a couple of hours... Really interesting stuff. I'll prolly wanna take a Marketing module for my Business elective. And maybe a career in Marketing?
And Database lab stuff lies undone. Sigh... It's not that I don't wanna do it. I just have no idea how to. Seriously. I've been reading up, looking for resources online, but I'm still clueless. I'm putting in the effort but sadly I just don't have the mental capacity for this. And sadly, that makes me seem like a total slacker. Yeah, I'm no geek, that's for sure. I do have a life outside school. I have to have one. But I do put in the effort to do what is required of me. I'm stupid and I can't help it. I really am. Uh... Help needed here! Someone? Anyone?
Metallica's been keeping me company... Nice...

Recess week's here! I get a proper recess week this time. Yay! Gotta catch up on all my work... Sigh... And work on business plan! Whee!!! Oh well, at least I won't have to travel all the way to school that much during the next week. There's an interview skills workshop on Friday though. I'm kinda looking forward to that. It's gonna be a whole day affair. Hope it'll be useful and I can get some tips for my interview if C K Tang decides to call. I've been looking at my phone every few minutes for the past few days waiting for their call.
Many weddings coming up. Every other weekend starting from tomorrow. Ah, tomorrow. We're supposed to meet at 8.15am. Gah. Saturdays are supposed to be for sleeping in!
Nightwish! I love Nightwish! Finally managed to get Once again. From Adam. Had it ages ago but lost it when I had to reformat my lappie.
Okay. Gotta get ready for yoga now. Last session.
[Long Lost Love]
Trees have dropped their leaves,
Clouds their waters
All this burden is killing me
Distance is covering your way,
Tears your memory
All this beauty is killing me
Oh, do you care,
I still feel for you
So aware,
What should be lost is there
I fear I will never find anyone
I know my greatest pain is yet to come
Will we find each other in the dark
My long lost love
[One More Night To Live]
Safely away from the world
In a dream, timeless domain
A child, dreamy eyed,
Mother's mirror, father's pride
I wish I could come back to you
Once again feel the rain
Falling inside me
Cleaning all that I've become
My home is far but the rest it lies so close
With my long lost love under the black rose
You told I had the eyes of a wolf
Search them and find the beauty of the beast
All of my songs can only be composed of the greatest of pains
Every single verse can only be born of the greatest of wishes
I wish I had one more night to live
A saint blessed me, drank me deeply
Spitting out the misery in me
Still a sinner rapes 1000 saints
Sharing the the same hell with me
Sanest choice in the insane world...
Beware the beast but enjoy the feast he offers
[Christabel]
"Oh, sweet Christabel. Share with me your poem.
For I know now, I'm a puppet on this silent stage show.
I'm but a poet who failed his best play.
A Dead Boy, who failed to write an endingTo each of his poems."

I was freakin late for school today. Stupid traffic jam. Lessons should not start at 8.30am! School's so tiresome... Damn. Managed to beat the Monday blues yesterday but not today. Oh but today isn't Monday. So that makes it Tuesday blues. Hmmm... Sounds weird.
Anyway, here's my formula for beating the Monday blues.
Step 1: Have 8 hours of sleep and night before and wake up nice and fresh!
Step 2: Start of the day with a nice brunch of fishball noodles from the nice auntie at the hawker center.
Step 3: Spend travelling time wisely by reading The Catcher In The Rye and listening to Dream Theater.
There you go! 3 easy steps! Only works if classes start at 11.30 though. Heh.
Shh, it's..here..

I watched this last Friday night. I love it to bits! One of the best classic romances ever. The meeting of two like souls... How sweet... And I love Audrey Hepburn! She's stunning, beautiful and a great actress. Definitely one of the most gorgeous women ever. I fell asleep with Moonriver playing in my head that night.
Sigh... I love watching good movies. But sadly, with school and all I hardly have the time now. I'm dying to watch Ratatouille!!!
Oh yes. The freshies organised a steamboat outing on Saturday evening and I forgot to go for it. There was no night practice after Mass, which I'm so used to having that I just assumed I was free when Adam suggested we play pool. Hahaha. What a scatterbrain I am. Pool was fun though. Played at AMK with Gabriel, Lucas, Venus and Adam. I couldn't really play but it was still fun. I had a few lucky shots. Yay!
Alright then.
Just a quick update.
:D

Hello. I had stuff to blog about. But sadly, I can't remember what they are now.
I got my grey contacts! They took a while to get used to but I think they look nice! I'll prolly be wearing them for the whole month. They cost $18 and I wanna make it worth every cent. My other pair I'll be saving for December. With christmas and carolling and all, it'll be a great time to have nice grey eyes!
I watched The Jeweler's Shop on Tuesday. A play written by Pope John Paul II, about love and marriage. Excellent script of course and very well done. I'd wanna get the book. Or watch it again. Have to catch all those bits I might have missed out since it was my first time watching it. It was good though, and everyone should watch it.
Wednesday was such a stressful day for me. Applications for our attachment had to be submitted by 5pm. I had to skip my 3 hour lecture to complete my resume. I don't think it was that bad. There're some stuff I failed to add but let's not think about it already. It's a good enough resume. Well, except for the sucky grades of course. C K Tang!!! I want it so badly... From what the company has described about their intership programmme, it sounds really interesting and prolly something I can learn a lot from. I know I've said a million times that I don't wanna work in the Computer Engineering industry. But this one's related to business so it'll prolly be less dry and boring. And it'll look good one me if I wanna do something in the business field after I graduate. So please pray that I get it!
I've got to go for yoga in awhile. Hope it'll be fun. It'll leave me aching for the next 2 days of course. I'll have difficulty standing, sitting and kneeling during Mass tomorrow. Haha.
The weekends are here! Hurray for weekends! I wish weekends didn't have to end. School's too boring. Stoning or sleeping during lectures, not knowing what's going on, frantically copying answers during tutorials, trying in vain to make sense of everything during labs... Bleah... This sucks. The only fun module is HRM. It's time consuming but we have fun doing it. And I totally love my project group! Let's hope we kick ass for our business plan. Our proposed budget ain't looking too good though. $2000 on forks! How insane is that, man?!
Haha. And I've run out of things to rant about.
Toodles.

Yet another week is over. Time's passing really fast. Too fast, too fast. We're on to the fifth week of school already! Oh my!
It's time for us to choose our attachment companies. My my, so many things to think about. I want to do something interesting and hopefully be able to learn something. Well, I hardly find anything related to Computer Engineering interesting, but there has to be something, right? And I need to work somewhere nearby. Yes. NEED. I'd die if I have to travel to Jurong, Tuas or Changi. I'd be late for work everyday, like how I'm always late for school. And my supervisors will give me a terrible grade. And it's so annoying that I can only apply for one interviewing company. All the good comapnies are interviewing. And those that are not are crap and far away. Grrr...
Yoga on Friday. It felt great. Feeling all your muscles stretching is really wonderful, though I've been aching all over ever since. No, I'm not a masochist. It's a satisfying kinda pain which makes me feel like I've actually done some work. That kinda pain feels good. It's like taking off your pointe shoes and seeing bleeding and blistered toes. Gosh, talking about pointe shoes. It's been years since I last touched them. My ankles are now too weak to be doing anything en pointe anymore. What a waste.
I finally borrowed The Catcher In the Rye. I've been wanting to read it for ages.
Ironing my clothes while watching Oprah is great. I should make it my Sunday ritual.
