Magic Bubble

Happy Deepavali Everyone!

Yes broke into this wonderful holiday by watching Monsoon Wedding on Tv! and yes, it is a good show! the guy is very sweet too! haha... yup, i've no idea what i'm gonna do today. most likely clean up the house for raya. it's too bad my neighbour left for india just a few days ago! every year she would share some lovely goodies, and likewise, we'd do the same on hari raya. it would have been cooler this deeparaya. oh well.

i've been watching/reading too many material that has got a thing or two with love. what the heck?? but at least they're comedies. let's see, i watched HITCH (yes finally!) and it got me inspired to be a date doctor! haha...and i read two plays: Heartbreak House by G.B. Shaw, which is hilarious, and, this is tragedy tho, not a comedy, Thunderstorm by Ts'ao Yu. Also an interesting read. And now monsoon wedding. I also watched Wonderfalls, in which the guy was again really sweet (and cute too!). Am i supposed to do a research paper on love or something? cant anyhow, have so many stuff to do already!

I'm not getting a reply. should i get worried? or super-worried? sigh... when i was younger and i'd have all these thoughts of super-adventures, facing dangers, disasters...etc....you know, indiana Jones style, and I'll still be alive at the end of the day that kind . anyhow, i couldn't abandon my family and friends while the world is constantly being in mortal danger. so i'd imagine that i'd have this magic little bubble world where all my loved ones will live in safe while i go save the world. and no danger can penetrate that bubble. yeah...wish that did existed. when everyone's moving so far, it's hard to be sure everyone's safe. the world is getting more dangerous to live in, and i still have no magic bubble. sigh...

i need to catch up on my correspondance. a blog is a poor way to keep in touch. and i will! hopefully by this weekend! sorry guys! maybe it wasnt a good idea to get a blog...hmmm...

I wish I wish I...saw Nothing

You know how a day can start good, and then end bad? a few days ago, my day started bad but ended good. well, i'd rather have that day! i realised that a bad ending can last soooo long! see, i was all happy and cheery and jokey until i saw something that made me a little upset. it wasnt big, but it did...er... kinda made me feel..and i stress...an itsy-bitsy-teeny-weeny-tiny-of-the-tiniest-not-at-all-a-big-thing-that's-how-small-small-tiny jealous. er yeah. so i said it. but trust me! it was an itsy-bitsy thingy! and i dont know why i should be feeling that way. like there was nothing. but it kept popping in my mind, and the more it popped, the more i felt upset(though it is still an itsy-bitsy thing!). and all these songs kept coming up (impeccable timing that radio has!) and it made me muse over it all the more! and then i get upset! and sigh-ey! and the cycle goes all over again! plus it didnt help that i got sprayed with leaves! i was LEAVED!!! yeah... a car drove real fast and sprayed all these dried leaves on me! i should be thankful it wasnt water but hey! we always need to make a good thing bad rite? but i'll get over it...i always do...

on my way back home, while walking through the carpark, i noticed something else that made me stop right in my tracks. someone...some neighbour, had put up those twinkly lights for raya. God! i havent seen that in ages! or maybe i just didnt notice. i glanced around and i noticed it was the first to put up the lights. my family hasnt put up lights for the past couple of years. i remember, before that, how putting up the lights was a big issue. we couldnt decide what pattern to fix. that's because every year, someone...someone in charge of getting the lights will always get it too short! (ps: it's always my sister!) and one year, we had no choice but design it in a way that looked like it had a bunch of bananas on one end. that was pretty funny.

....yeah....

but i dont think i want to put up lights now.

it's raining really heavy now.. with lightning and thunder! and it's pretty scary. sigh..but a rainy day can sure make your blue mood even bluer....think i shall just have to sleep this through...

Let's Talk About Sex Baby, Let's Talk About You and Me...

Good Mooorning People!
I wanted to post an entry yesterday, but alas, i fell asleep. You know the drill...want to take a short nap then go study yadda yadda yadda...and bing-bada-boom..It's 5AM in the morning! you'd think i'd've noticed a pattern or something, eh? right... well, yesterday was an interesting day for sociology cos we talked abt gender! in tutorial, we were split to boys and girls (there were only 3 girls, and like 16 guys?) and answer questions like "what makes a boy a boy? a girl a girl? a man a man? a woman a woman?" so this was wat my grp (e gal pac came up with)...

What Makes a Man a Man?

# lazy
# watch football
# immature
# can't take care of himself
# lie a lot
# MCP
# always thinking about sex
# act cool ... etc.

the list goes on by the way... of course i'm open to comments. yup...i can hear the man-ists calling already! oh wait no! that was my brother's irritating alarm! (hate that phone!) anyhow, i was wondering who my friends have been mixing around with?? who are their referrences?? then i remembered....wait a minute! i have a brother! *slaps hand to forehead* noow it makes sense! but the guys in my class only strongly reacted to "act cool". go figure! now, before you other fellows start screaming "BIAS!!!", allow me to essplain that we had an extra group member (because of our relative small size), our tutor, and he was a guy. he pretended to be a woman and he pretty much supplied a lot of opinions! hahaha...his name was "harriet" by the way! ;)

and after our gender lecture, cindy and i were like, totally, like talking like, a bunch of like, bimbos! i mean, we are sooo not bimbos! but like, i had a thing with my laptop, that like, sooo confused us! it was acting sooo like a guy! like wadever! i'm soo gonna like bitch to my other girlfriends! like totally!

talking gender is so fun! =D

Performing Patty Philips

What a bad day! well... that's not really true. it was more like a bad morning! first, as u should have noticed, it was bloody hot! what kind of a weather maliciously hits u with bullets made out of molten lava?? it didn't help that i was wearing all black. and no, it wasn't an attempt to look all drama-mama cool for ts today. it was in actual fact an attempt to use up my stupidity...before they run out see... and i missed the bus. the bus just whooshed by before i could cross the road. waited a freakin' long time for the next bus to arrive! didnt help that there was no good music on the radio! i like power 98, and i like maggie and joe, but for goodness sakes! the choreography is terrible! talk talk. advertisement. 2 songs. talk talk. news. 2 songs! talk talk. advertisement...2 songs!!! it gives one a major headache. and i simply do not like 987. long ride, no entertainment, major headache. what joy! and i was late for lecture. like 20min late. cos i was printing my notes for the lecture. so i waited and waited...and some girl "stole" my lecture notes! she had printed her notes all black...so she didnt think those notes were hers. and she took mine. i know cos i got the blackened notes instead. sigh..went to lecture without notes. grrrr....

on the brightside, my afternoon went okay-ley well! it was my last practical session for ts tho! sobs! it was so fun, i'm gonna miss it! and i'm gonna miss all the pple! they were the only tutorial group pple where i can get to know everyone and basically crap. what do u expect? drama-mama pple! haha... and i'm gonna miss my teacher too! he was hilarious! yup...it was unexpected. the one module which i wasn't very keen abt at the beginning, turned out to be one of my favs! it didnt have to be just abt acting! and i'm sooo excited abt the practical exam! i've set my heart for set design... so i hope i can get it! i've learnt a lot from ts. and i think i'll be learning much more working with 6 other pple for our mini-production!

haha...just read what my soci teacher has set for our next tutorial..daring us to cross-dress for our gender topic. it brings poignant memories of times past.....catch my drift people! right. shall end here, while i slog off for my term paper. adios!

Blog Shopping

Well, there you go peeps! A new skin! Waddjya think? Doesnt matter..cos i like it! haha.. took me the whole morning! i realised that finding blogskins is like shopping! you get to see all the pretty designs, get to know some famous designers..see something you like..see if there are any other offers..go back...then make ur selection. yup... shopping. so why wasnt it that fun for me? my guess is the whole fiasco of trying to fit it into my blog and staring at the screen too long. ugh. well, i'm glad that's over! aah..shall now relax and enjoy the rest of the morning. you should too!

Getting there...

What on earth was I thinking?? no seriously...what was i thinking?!?!?! i must have been out of my mind to think i could pull it off! i'm such an idiot! 2 nights work is not gonna cut it. what made me think otherwise?? groan...

i was wary at first, but i decided, hey! it's done! might as well. what have i got to lose? took a cab down, my measely parcel in one hand. the place was interesting enough for me to forget my nervousness. until i entered the office. and i saw what i was certainly lacking! didnt last there 5 minutes. couldn't. so like a coward, i muttered something unintelligible and walked out quickly. i was so embarrased. did the "need to make a phonecall" excuse act and skedoodled out of there. and at the bus-stop, i just hid myself behind the advertisement board till my bus came. sigh... it was a wake-up call for me. it was! and i felt pretty miserable. wanted to bang my head against a wall but that would have attracted more attention now wouldn't it?

i think the guy who i met must have thought i was weird. he was nice. he helped find the ever elusive place! one thing i noticed was that he had long lashes, and in retrospect, he looked a little like einstein the artist! he was friendly, or wanted to be. but i couldnt bring myself to be my chatty self. i was that nervous! and i think he was a little overwhelmed too. at least he was brave enough to submit his work. his work was good anyhow!

i'm not discouraged. well, that is, i dont think i am. i knew i wasn't good enough. but today woke me up and made me realise what i needed to do to be "enough". i just hope i can keep up this optimism till next year when i try again. i need lessons! but at least i found out something i liked.

for now, a draught of forgetfulness would be great. and a change of scene. anything to keep my mind out of it for the moment. and doing work should do the trick! especially when i have a ton of it!

sigh....

i need a new skin for this blog. i also need ice-cream.

Long Night Pippins....

It's a brilliantly wet Sunday... i love rainy days. but if you have to go out in the pouring rain, well, that's quite a bummer! but nevertheless, now that i'm all dry and back home again (after a lovely dinner albeit the serious post-mortem! hehe) , i can sit and enjoy the lovely cool air and the almost-moody atmosphere! hee... i would love to curl up with hot cocoa and a delightful read! or a foreign movie and hot buttered orville's movie-theatre popcorn! still havent watched 'love me if u dare'...sighs... but i got an agenda of course. always do...

i have this "project" in mind.. not for school. nooo... for something else. but i keep putting it off. i know i wanna do it, but everytime i think about it, like my tummy does a backflip. i just cant start, u know? i think i'm afraid it's gonna blow...and fail...which means i failed. and i'd hate to think that it's gonna be one of those ya-ya projects which doesn't get done in the end! augh! cant happen cos i kinda got the stuff already! time's a ticking... i plan to start today...today turned tonight... i bought meself coffee to help keep the peepers open. so why have i not started? actually, waiting for my mom to sleep. see...i'm even shy to my mom! no lah...dont want her to think i'm wasting my time. u know how parents can get. maybe that's why i'm in such a pensieve mood today. hrmm...

ah well, if i dont start tonight, u'll see me all bright and cheery tomorrow! if i do, be prepared to see me sleeping in lecture. it promises to be a looong night....only hope it's worth my while. cheers!

(mary poppins used an umbrella dear! hehe ) so i had to dance with my teacher. which was good cos at least one of us knew what was going! and bad cos i didnt get to do the blindfold dance! =( but now i'm really into the mood of dancing! i still remember much of the tkg dance... and much more when me and nurul were teaching cass and ais outside esplanade with out courtshoes and -ugh-stockings! that was really fun! we were stared at a lot but like who cares right? the music set us in the mood! i shall confess tho ...(cos i know only my friends will read this! hahaa )... that when i'm listening to sinatra or jamie cullum while at the train, especially changing trains..i feel like doing a gene kelly and dance away! of course, that is not possible because that is the train i take home too! but wouldnt it be nice tho? no one dances anymore...and that's a shame!

Pumpkin

Aaah..the end of one hell of a hectic week! so now that all the tests and projects for the week is done, i can afford to kick my heels for now. and i did! beginning with today! went out with the usual gang for a nice dinner and a game of pool. which mind you, i'm horrible but am learning! i losted in the end, but how was i supposed to know i was supposed to hit the black ball without putting in the cue ball too?? haha.. a mighty big thanks to my three coaches! (some have a couple, i got three man! see how much help i need? haha) and being stressless and pretty much happy, i felt all wacky. hmm.. i'll all geared up to do some high-adreneline activity but no direction to go! do they have hang-gliding here in singapore?

but alas, the night folded and needed to get home before midnight or else i'd turn into a pumpkin. (yes..you should know by now, that i am really, actually...a pumpkin) and was supposed to hitch a ride back with jason (now, i'm only calling u this now cos i figured, that's what u want to be called frm now on?) but there were like nooo cabs passing through! and when my bus came instead, i took it or else i'd be seriously late! haha...but dude! i'm holding on to the deal! u gotta chauffeur me around when u get ur first car k or else...tsk tsk..kena bully later at nus! muahaha.... hehe...

despite feeling all stressless and relaxed and contented and stuff, i felt lil bit lacking today. hmmm... like i know what i want, but i think i'd like another aspect to life that i've yet to experience.. and you know i'm a stickler for "experiencing" . god, i bet i sound like one of those irritating tv pple who go "must try! must try! must experience one!" brrr... and if u think i'm speaking in code again, yes i am! haha... so just becos u dont know, dont anyhow-anyhow misinterpret ya? for some reason, i've been largely misinterpreted these past two days! yeesh! jus a lil bit more, and my total utility would increase! hehe...

well, my initial plan was to write a quick blog and start reading harry potter! yes yes..i've yet to read it. and if ANYONE so dares tell me anything or just so mentions/whispers/untrasound a LETTER in that book shall find their favourite collectible toy without any head or limbs! oh yes! i'm brutal! i get my inspiration from that dracula king guy. but now it's getting pretty late and i must get up early later. yawnz... whatever happened to my lazy-hazy sundays of summer? well, shall cheerio outta here... till the next time i'm free...
