FREEEEEE as a doughnut

i am freeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

ah. the sweet smell of freedom.

yes, i took my final paper today and i am, your royal highnesses, officially... on holiday! *runs around like a whacked job* okay, i should probably start packing right now for my backpacking trip across Europe! that's right. paris! roma! italia! madrid! Qui sono venuto! and i should start looking up newspaper ads for job vacancies. and of course, i'm going to learn driving. yesssss. this is all working just fine. all too good. too good...

...to be true.

IF ONLY there was a way for me to squeeze all that into my 4-day holiday. that's right. SIP unofficially begins on the 5th of march a.ka. next monday a.k.a. the first day of the week that makes us all depressed.

time flies by real quickly. 4 days? i think that's pretty much equivalent to 2. maybe if i go to bed right now, tomorrow will be sunday. hmm. there're things that i've planned to do in my "upcoming-now-defunct-holiday" since 1 month ago, but i guess they're not really possible now. and my good friend's leaving for china(for 2 months!) this saturday. what's more, i should probably start studying for my supp paper for Itech(at the very least).

mmmm. dont you just love the sweet smell of freedom?

maybe, JUST maybe, i should stay at home, and try and figure out what kind of mutant i really am? i'm sure i have superpowers. come on. i know i got it. i just have to figure out what is it.

and i have 4 days for that. :)

a series of unfortunate events: event #413213

something has happened. again.

there's no escaping it, is there? something always has to happen during the chinese new year period. it's not even day 15 yet.

drama. there's too much of it. they dont necessarily happen to me, but they happen to people around me, which indirectly affects me as well. i'm watching someone play a joke on these people. it feels like it.

i'm 18 and i'm a singaporean. my life is supposed to be simple and boring. it is. but not to the people around me, it seems.

there is a way of not getting involved. i cant be anyway. i wouldnt be able to do much at all. but it's definitely going to affect us in a way. i see more and more worry lines popping out as the hour passes. as much as she tries not to think about it. multiply that with 6.

maybe everyone should just lock themselves in at home for a month. an entire month without stepping out of the house. would that prevent catastrophies?

a lesson to be learnt. too late, perhaps.
no more drama. please.

1 down, 2 to go.

this lunar new year has officially bored me.
and coming from me, that's bad. tsk.

76 relatives (excluding distant ones), and my chinese new year was about as exciting as peeling the skin off 100 potatoes on a lazy summer's day. tsk, tsk.

YES, i had my 1st paper today. i wouldnt dare say much about it, just in case i jinx it, but i think it should be passable. at least, i hope. i think. my worst nightmare has yet to arrive. that's right. doomsday on wednesday.

2 whole hours of pure torture. it'll slice my head open, take out my brains, and then mutilate my body until it becomes unrecognisable. i am not talking about "Heroes." it's just that little darn thing called Wireless.

i just hope i'll be able to survive to tell the tale. or you know, blog about it.

i caught this.

i'll rate it 2/5.
Power Rangers would have gotten 2.5.

it was that bad of a movie. and you know coming from me, that IS a bad thing. i expected better. way better. i mean, for starters, movies based on comic book heroes are usually good, really good, or at the very least, acceptable. and this is, afterall, a Nicolas Cage movie.

only, it was nowhere near what i had expected. what a waste of money.
tsk, tsk, tsk.

now this,

should be much better.

yes.

i cant wait for Ugly Betty. i'm hoping it's gonna be good, judging on the number of awards it has won over time. plus America Ferrera stars in it.
i loved her here...

so i'm pretty sure i'll like her in Ugly Betty too. yay.

but i know.
exams first. every other sane thing, second.

Time to Pig out

Gong Xi Fa Cai!

it's finally here. some kind of zest is still missing this year.
it's okay. maybe we'll find it soon.



SNORT.

it is here.

yes. finally. after all that waiting. it has been so long.

too long.


finally.

burp.

the good, the bad and the evil

i have never celebrated valentine's day, so typically, it was just another day to me. a busy wednesday. here's a recount of what happened.

the good:

got yummer-licious rochers and a disc(thanks marc), some random rose(thanks ahli), a straw heart(um, student union) and chocolates and a lollipop(my telepathic one). even though i wasnt much of a valentine's day person, i gave out some chocolates(and "diet pills") as well. hey, no one should miss out on good chocolates. c'mon. it's chocolates (and special "diet pills"). i appreciated all the gifts. thanks, peeps, and my telepathic one. and yes! i finally handed in my moodboard and fashion illustrations! i must be dreaming.

the bad:

i was bloody sick(still am). so i couldnt feast on those yummer-licious chocolates(what a catastrophe), and i definitely couldnt smell the roses with that blocked nose(that's if, roses have smells. they do.. right? i dont know, i'm not much of a flower person.). blah. plus, i had to worry about some stupid project(which i finally handed up today). and i havent started on my revision for the exams. hoohaaa.

the evil:

i learnt yesterday that my SIP unofficially begins on the 5th of March. wait, sorry? 5 days after my last paper? oh, so, that means no holidays? that whole 2 month break(where i was going to look for a job, learn driving and actually breathe) that i was really looking forward to's...not gonna happen? really? wow thanks! that news totally made my day.

at this point, i should probably start mutating.

alright. chinese new year in 2 more days. finally.

cough. sneeze.

falling sick right before chinese new year is like growing a pimple right before prom.

only, i dont do proms so i cant afford to fall sick before chinese new year. except, i did.

what a bummer.

i HAVE TO BINGE on new year goodies when cny officially comes. i planned to.
i guess it's time i used my mutant powers to make myself well by friday.

onto the Grammy's.
James Blunt's performance was painful. seriously.
what? i'm not ready to make nice.
that's all i have to say, really.

chirp.

look what we found on the air-con compressor outside my parents' room window?



i cant wait chinese new year.

thoughts exploded into pieces.

dear mr.


will you please break me out of this prison?
bus 8, 69 or 23 should do the trick.

please?


yeah, that's right. think about it, hard.




come on, there's no need to discuss it with Lincoln.






tsk. break me out, this instant!

V for Victory

ROOAAARRR.

REPRESENT!

COOK ISLANDS

i love you but...





HELL YEAH!

REPRESENT!
