cold.

You know, I never used to feel like this.

But now, I think my patience is wearing thin.

And I'm looking for any excuse to be anywhere but here.

"Friends are the family we choose for ourselves"
~ Edna Buchanan

Maybe not all of you would agree with this quote but I do. It's not that I particularly dislike my family, but it's those few friends of mine that have made life just that much more bearable.

I've always considered myself quite lucky when it comes to making friends. It's like at every new chapter of my life, I make a few good friends whom I'm pretty sure I'd still be talking to 10 years from now.

The problem is that time passes way too fast. Everybody is slowly going their own separate ways =(. Last year it was Trixie and Jia. Now, in a few hours time Melissa is flying off to Australia. Before you realise, everybody has gone off to uni and then we only get to see each other once or twice a year when we're all back in Malaysia.

Soon enough, you'll be getting wedding invitations. Gah. Feeling so old seeing as this is our last year of being a teenager.

soda shop.

Slightly random post.

goodbye, prince charming
and drown sleeping beauty
shove Cinderella’s slipper where the sun don’t shine
toss the little mermaid back out to sea
cuz the fairy godmother had to perform another abortion today
and the seven dwarves live in the forest, of course, cuz they were driven away
but this part of the story could spark a cultural rage
so at the sound of the tone we just turn the page

Ever After Happily by Jay Brannan



Haha. From MyLifeIsTwilight. Yes there actually is such a website.
And if you laughed at the Harry Potter reference, *high five* =D.


How can my kpop love die when there are constantly new things for me to watch? Jung Yong Hwa (C.N.Blue) and SeoHyun (SNSD) are pairing up for WGM. Can't wait to see this couple play out. Yong Hwa looks like the nice guy while SeoHyun has said that she isn't interested in guys. Not in the lesbian way but rather the guys are not worth the time and effort way. Haha.

Gah. This is the result of no internet for 3 days. Information overload.

unstable

I've lost the blogging mojo this week.

Lack of sleep has rendered my brain bleugh.

But the next few days without Internet should allow me the proper amount of sleep.

So,

Happy Chinese New Year in advance!!

May you get lots of ang pow and eat tons of good food =)

Phew. Tiring weekend.

On Saturday had a double surprise farewell. Fen and Matt's surprise farewell at Nat's. She actually told them that they were going fishing for her birthday. And the funny thing is that once we surprised them, seperately, the first thought they had was "But I really wanted to go fishing!!". Haha. I wanna try fishing too. But definitely with a good group of people if not I think I'd die of boredom waiting for the fish to bite.

Then at night was another surprise farewell for...Fen. Yup you read that right, we surprised her twice in one day. Cause the one at night was organized by her mum. They had a lok-lok truck!! Yes I'm pretty jakun bout it cause I've never eater lok-lok before =P.

Then yesterday I had Kuen Cheng reunion as well as Melissa's farewell =(. I wish I could have stayed longer at the reunion. Can't imagine that it's already been seven years since I left Kuen Cheng. This reunion was for the entire year so got to see many others from the other classes. Okay, it's not like I know many of them, but it was nice to be transported back to childhood days. Even teachers came. And I never realised this before, but for standard six, all the classes homeroom teachers were women. Like, where are the men??? My class, 6M had about 15? people who turned up. Of which only three were guys. Yes it's that sad. The class thinks that it's cause the guys aren't as sentimental as us girls. Yet, the rest of the classes had a pretty equal amount. Ah well. Maybe at the next reunion.

Went over to Melissa's later. Just the usual people there. And you people should seriously watch Marcus and Pui Yi play laser hockey on Wii. Their reactions are just sooooo funny. Both so kiasu till they played four rounds cause Pui Yi kept winning. Haha. After going back to Pui Yi's so make sure Tuna(her extremely cute hamster) was okay, we went to mamak. Where Pui Yi as usual made everyone eat and get fat =P.

shipwreck.

If you watched the video I posted up earlier titled "Do Schools Kill Creativity?", you would have heard the guy say that Maths and Language are at the top of the education "food chain". With the arts like Dance, Literature, Music at the bottom.

Why is it that way? Who on earth decided that there should be a hierarchy system when it comes to learning?

Shouldn't education be about gaining knowledge as a whole. And not only about one particular field. Yes I know that through specialisation we can improve by leaps and bounds in that particular field. But then wouldn't you be using one side of your brain much more than the other.

I think it's pretty unfair that Maths is considered to be the most important subject. And I can't stand how it is practically forced upon all students. Every single student would at one point or another have to study Maths while only those who want to will take up Lit. How many students study Literature? Very few no? I'm not saying that Literature is better than Maths, but rather that all students should be asked to study Lit at one point in their lives. Then maybe no one would have the opinion that studying Humanities is a waste of time. And they'd probably realise that Lit is not only about reading books. That it is a REALLY difficult subject.

Though it may be generalising, I'm pretty sure a lot of those not in Humanities would say that we Humanities students are wasting our time. That these artsy subjects don't contribute to the evolvement of the human race. After all, to build technology, Maths is definitely more important.

But then, what's so great about evolving anyway? Maybe it'll make life easier for those of us born into average or above average families that can afford to make life relatively comfortable. Yet it's because of evolution that the earth is dying cause all people do is exploit nature to make more money.


Gah. My thoughts seemed so all over the place.

lone.

Haha. I'm sure most of you have seen that equation where it shows that Girls=Evil.

Well, here's something to show you that boys are MORE evil =P.

boys = time x money x girls x sex

time is money
boys = (money) x money x girls x sex

boys think girls equal sex
boys = money sqared x girls x (girls)

money is the root of all evil
boys = ( sqrt(evil) )^2 x (girls)^2

boys think girls are evil
boys = evil x (evil)^2
boys = (evil)^3

disorganised.



"I am an unreal person. I am made of stone, or else I am made of glass. I am wired precisely wrong, precisely. But you will not find my key. I have tried to lose the key to me. You can look at me closely if you wish, but you see more from far away."
