Happy Chinese New Year!

Just came back from my reunion dinner and am super full. I am so afraid to gain more weight over the new year la. Is so relaxing to be the couch potato again and watch programmes on the television for the whole day..the feeling is DAMN good.

This week is quite hectic and my eyes were kinda sore due to the lack of sleep over the few days. Managed to submit my first essay through Turnitin on the wee hours of friday night. Spent a whole day just to write this essay and I off my handphone and all electrical devices to avoid distraction. Prof told us that her A student hid himself in the toilet just to come out with a strong argument for his essay.

In addition, ahem..my "aunt" came and I was super exhausted and lethargic that I could even stand straight and sleep through out the train ride. Sleep to me is very important, it is like my elixir of life and of cuz my magic potion to beauty LOL. Assignments are piling high but again is never ending for at least 12 more weeks I guess so I am gonna dump them in one corner and till then..KIV first.

Went to visit the buddhist centre and the administrator told my parents and I some stuffs. Not being superstitious but it did apply to me though..gonna pray Tian Gong and have a water cleansing ceremony. She told us that female with their age of last digit 2, 6 and 8 and male 3, 6 and 9 must be wary each year especially when the age is their chinese age. Some years back I managed to "esacpe" from the chinese age but it came true for my english age. So ya, for dragon this year, it is better to MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS.

Our TA did this poster for our group. Super hilarious act and I became the gay smokescreen?!

Feeling so tired and sleepy these days. There are so many readings, assignments and projects to do..and it's only the second week! Practically have no mood to even do my tutorials. It seems so spectacular that our mind can come out with so many creative excuses to not do something rather than to do them. First, is the post traumatic syndrome..what's with all the mini coopers and mazda on the roads these day? Second, is chinese new year. Next, is my desktop cpu crashes and the monitor blanks out at the most unpredictable moment. What's with HP?!

There are so many question that I couldn't answer for myself..like what's the purpose in my life? Have this guy classmate of mine who's from Macau and he has somehow empower me with his words..anyway it makes me think whether people from City Harvest are that energetic and optimistic?

Met up with ying jie on friday and woohaa...we bumped into yc, shin, kw and qy at JP.

I am not discouraged, because every wrong attempt discarded is another step forward.

NVM. Try again lo.

My first post for 2009 haha. Most people have resolution and new fresh plans for this year, but I am just gonna say it's just another year gone by. Everything is still the same, the world we are living in, the places we frequent. Things don't change when the last digit of the 4 numerals changes, things change constantly. The moment you close your eyes and await the next morning, there are so many changes around this planet. How many people dying of hunger, crimes, disaster be it big or small, birth etc while you are sleeping. I used to hate changes in my life especially sad ones or sudden shocking ones, but it is undeniably true that changes are happening to us faster than we ever notice..faster than the melting of ice caps but slower than the bullet train.

Perhaps I have been escaping from few things that struck me some 2 years back. I choose not to say them and do not have the courage to face these few things that blotch my past. Sound as if it's very scary eh..although it's nothing serious too. The past is always with us and it's time I stop running..just like that of archaeological digs. I was torn apart between choosing to pretend as what my relatives and parents told me to do so and talking to myself late at night as if a muse will hear me. Nonetheless, I will find the courage and as for you, I am happy that you are happy cuz I ain't good in the past. I still feel a slight tinge of melancholy when I see people having those sweet memories that I used to have but perhaps this feeling will subside when I grow to love myself and others more..and be a better mother in the future.

School is starting and ciao to all the fun and fantasy I had for 1 month. It has been a nice week..cycling, blading, watching movies, dinner and new year wishes from friends. The food at din tai fung was good and we watched Little Nyonya at Jas's house. It feels good to have nice friends whom you feel comfy with. As usual of an egoistic and thriving to shine Leo native, I want to work harder this year. Although people say I don't behave like a Leo but the Leo genes are in my blood somehow lol~ No more laziness but work and play smart.
