ARGH /// 3:20 PM
I cant take the noise any longer.
The construction being done right outside the door is pollution to my ears.
So, off i go, out to play. :)

Formula 1School + homework = Work
Formula 2Get-togethers + Friends = Play
Step 3: Add both formulas together
Formula 3Work + Play = Sleepless nights and more cups of chilled mocha
Am amazed im still alive and kicking, after two beesy weeks of pure torture and what-seemed-like-infinite amount of assignments, projects, presentations and term paper. Thankful that God made friends and gave me many, all who are as effective as comedy movies and also going through the entire routine of studying and playing together.
With the addition of nights-out, things werent actually as bad as they seem. Reached home 5 hours after the clock striked 12 on thursday night, where sleep was replaced by time spent cruising around Spore, from the west to the east. Fab time! Friday after-school hours were devoted to Jeslin, where the pjc gang celebrated her birthday at Holland V with
da monkeys. Hope jeslin enjoyed her 21st!
Weekends were spent doing projects, church, church meetings, carolling practice, kids choir, giving tuition. So there! 3 -4 ++ hours of sleep for the past few nights. The unmistakable dark rings around my eyes do prove my point.

How i spend my Deepavali
Living things involved: Churchmates, marcus, billy goats, frogs, organic food.

One of the 3 newest Ferraris you can find there
(This car belongs to a lady btw)

Once we laid eyes on those ferraris, lamborghini and maserati
and after our jaws had dropped,
Joanna said, "I want to be a farm owner in future too!".
I couldnt agree more.
Really enjoyed this mini outing with my churchmates.
Thanks to Auntie Winnie for organising such programs and speaking of programs, im so excited for the end of year camp! :))

The chemistry /// 8:26 PM
I just discovered a weakness i never knew i had.
Gosh.
Ahhh /// 10:43 PM
Guess what.
I've another "first time" this month.
Besides having done such a tough developmental term paper, it's the
first time in 3 sems where i
had + seriously needed a cup of coffee beside me during today's 10 am stats lecture, with the sole purpose of keeping me
awake.
Treading on thin ice. /// 11:41 PM
Note to self: Jesus is just a prayer away.
National Library was my second
home during the e-learning week. Well, developmental psy assignment is the hardest i've ever done so far in my 3 sems and im just so thankful it's finally over! Phew.
Met up with wanling for a short while yesterday morning cuz she wanted me to help her out in a mini photoshoot for her sch's photography project. I honestly felt silly and awkward, maintaining numerous poses, while her camera went "snap snap snap" a hundred odd times. Wont deny that it's rather fun though. Hope she can get a good grade for that module!:) Why cant Nus offer a photography mod too???
Anw, was just taking time away from development webcast (yes, dev revolves around my world now) and scrolling through past entries for the first time.
One of them is pretty hilarious -
20.01.06"my physics teacher caught me sleeping in class today! i was like nodding off when i suddenly heard a voice in my dream saying "Joy". i woke up and found myself looking directly at the teacher. he asked me to answer a super difficult physics question and i told him that i dont know. i even thought that maybe he didn catch me sleeping afterall... but then he said, " Next time, pls dont close your eyes anymore. " hahaha.. my heart was beating so fast, almost suffered from a heart attack. :) the second time he called my name, i had a sweet in my hand and was about to pop it into my mouth... but fortunately, he didnt notice anything.":Ol
One gave me goosebumps -
12.06.04"i still could not find my missing fish... i suspect it has jumped out of the fish tank.. if this is true, then the smell would have been really stinky and bad... but i could not smell anything yEt.. hope that it will not die a terrible death." <:-@Till now almost 5 years later, the fish ceases to be found. Gross.
No particular
fishy smell in my house though.
Well, gonna get a cheap MP3 after school tmr. The last time i owed one was few years back but i lost it at home. Am intending to use it when i go for my jogs and it'll come in pretty handy during public transportation as well. :)) A BIG NO NO when im studying as it reduces concentration esp for readings and i cant multi-task for peanuts.

The Queen and her noble servant /// 9:55 PM
Even though it's been ages since i talked to Mabel, the conversation we had a few mins ago made me feel as if we've been in contact since forever. I love the fact that sometimes, even when she's like miles away living another life in Aussie and we seldom msn-ed or ring each other up, we are still able to chat away like old friends, laughing at each other silliness, or goofing around with "who's the queen" and all. Ah. Old memories just send a touch of longing my way.
Due to generous amounts of donations...

As usual, he failed to smile.

Artsy Fartsy loves purple. /// 11:29 PM
3 of the mid-terms are finally over and i'm just so looking forward to e-learning week cuz im only required to step into nus territory for 6 hours the entire week! Yay!
The weekends were packed with a late-night drive to changi coast road with two buddies and also, birthday celebrations for cecilia and grace! Have never so much as enjoyed myself at the arcade games where ceci, cheryl, zl and I spent a total of close to $40 trying to get those cute little soft toys. Come to think of it, actually quite
cheap thrill. Well one of them is dangling from the corner of my phone now.
Then I hopped onto Chia's cab, which brought us to East Coast where Grace was hosting her 21st birthday party. Hmm
what shall i do with mine?? I love her birthday cake by the way, cuz it's a 2-layered cake, decorated beautifully with ermm.. okay i forgot. But i just got the impression that it was really nice.
Slept for only a miserable 3 hours last night cuz was busy decorating every page of a huge photo album with photos, colour papers, and various items, for marcus for our
2nd-year anniversary, which has actually passed (28th Sep). Since we only went out for lunch and caught a movie then, decided to do something extra by having a picnic/dinner together just now. Spent some quality time in Botanical Gardens munching on "Sandwiches of Love" - nutella/bacon/cheese sandwiches, made by him, and other varieties of yummy snacks.
Thank you, dear.The past 2 weeks have been rather eventful too. Favourite activities include a short lunch with wanting at Aston and later a leisure stroll in smu, prawn-fishing in the middle of the night, then ___________, which enlightened me greatly as what i witnessed was like a light at the end of the tunnel. Studies totally not in
this category.
My attempts at enjoyment of being a nerd aint working exactly well so far. Hope that this e-learning week is gonna be somewhat fruitful:)
