Just when I thought the term is ending, exams and work are flying in nice and thick. And just when I thought I have some time to breathe myself...well I guess I thought wrong. Extremely irrate and grumpy, not least with myself. *frownfrownFROWN*

2008-11-05T02:14:00.002+08:00

I was wondering why I was so irritated with some people......like a certain young adult who types even worst then my 16 year old sister (who actually types and writes pretty well) and is one of the best living proof of the failure of the Singaporean education system (even at the most elite levels)...and someone who tried to unload her unwanted things on me (and then i was so irritated at myself

today corwin told me tht voice recorders cannot detect resonance. which just made me realise i've wasted the past 6 years wondering why my playing always sounds so hard. BECAUSE I TRUSTED THE VOICE RECORDERS . hmmm.

2008-11-04T07:47:00.002+08:00

I want to remember every single moment of this glorious term. Events, official and impromptu, just come flying thick and fast and I love my classes e.t.c..t.c. (will continue anothr day)

I'm so happy today. And I want to remember what keeps me in good spirits.I mean there's the never ending and ever accumulating workload and a extremely shitty eecs exam results and a extremely gross be exam and a horribly uncompleted and minimal-efforted project 3, but I'm in such high spirits....(for really mundane reasons)So I overslept and felt really horrible in the morning cos I went for

Actually I should really really blog about fall break. Thanks to everyone who didn't leave there was never a mmoment when I was lonely...Thurs: Yuzhen called me and asked me out for a movie (Burn after reading) Random, but I rather enjoyed it.

sometimes its just nice to know that no matter what happens there'll be people behind me and I won't ever be lonely. no matter how insecure i can be about being lonely, deep deep really really deep down inside i know there'll always be people. good people who will watch out for me. at this rate, all the bad things in the world can happen but nothing will prob get me down.(nothing triggered this

sometimes i wish things were as simple and easy to implemnt as you describe. telling you about it and laughing over it makes me feel loads better and i wish wish WISH tht i could put just that into actionif there's anything i;m grateful for, its having very very close friends from everywhere. maybe i don't have altoaltoalotALOT of friends, but at least those tht i do are close =)

If everyone likes people that they can't get (fact of life. it's empirically proven), what happens? Do we all wait forever and ever, or do either party lower their standards. I don't really see happiness in lowering standards. And love triangles/rectangles/polygons don't exist. They're usually more like, never-ending upward-climbing spirals.

It's becoming increasingly obvious what is more important to me, or perhaps, most important to me, in life.I used to think it was about being powerful and high flying and in school, that meant having very good results and the busiest schedule and the most powerful internships and all, but I recently realised that my main satisfaction doesn't come from that (should have realised it last year

The cricket in EECS 280 lecture hall (that's been there for the past month or so) makes me feel like I"m studying in the night safari and it just seems to go louder and louder as the hour and the half goes by.

I think I've spent a bomb on all my jackets but I love every single one of them!!Those that I've bought since I came:1. Gear Michigan Blue Jacket: 30 Bucks. Soft material, nice sleeve ends (hemmed and not stretchy like hoodies), nice zip, with a nice waist. Basically this is all that I look for in a jacket. Bought end of last winter.2. Northface Down Jacket. about 200 bucks. Just the right length

For some unexplained reason I'm deriving all the joy in my life now from practicing tempest over and over and over again. For one, walking into the music school gave me some unexplainable sense of pleasure, listening to the mish mesh of instruments (as well as voice) whilst walking through the maze of (unsoundproofed) practice rooms. Trumpets, violins, cellos, voice, pianos, harps, marimbas e.t.c

Every event just drives home the same point over and over again. I have a painful lack of social skills. Maybe the next course of action should be to quit bschool and hole up at home and talk to people i like on the phone until they get sick of me. Then I'll dig a hole and bury myself in it. End of story.I should stop thinking otherwise and try to go for this kind of stuff, thinking that the past

Some people's lives are too mundane for me to bother with. But I will still poke and prod around cos it gives me a mean satisfaction in gloating at their immaturity, the trivialities of their lives, the predicability (not that I'm very matured, but its good to know there are peers so much more immature than me *contented smile*)Went Birch run today and had a veryvery happyyy shopping spree.

Its uncanny. The last episode of Parental Guidance and the last episodes of xinhuaduoduokai coincides with the last wk of summer term.

I loathe horrible English, especially on MSN, nowadays. I'm fine with people speaking in the vernacular. But its those sentence structures like, "You got fever?" that really get on my nerves. Or they make a point to end every sentence with Hor. And Siaaa. Its alright to throw a few natural Singlish words in, but its a whole new other thing to purposely make an effort to speak in Singlish.

I absolutely admire musicians, instrumentalists, composers, or otherwise. Music is like beauty on a higher level. Whoever can appreciate such beauty and ingenuity cannot have any ill intentions.

Sometimes when I'm standing at the window of someone's dorm in Baits, looking down atop the hill at the lights above pierpont and dude, I inadvertably remind myself of my childhood spent happily in my grandmother's house in Serangoon, where I sometimes stood at the window of her flat on the 8th floor, looking down upon the brightly litted Serangoon central. I remember the night air always

In rochester noww. Rochester as a city is nice. Outskirts is quiet, or rather the part i've been to is quiet. The laboratory of laser energectics has a relaly nice environment, kinda like an English countryside...abit lah. The city realli looks like a city, nowhere near new york or chicago, but at least sky scrapers, and abit of noise.I consider myself really really really lucky to land this

2008 has arrived. Happy New Year to all, and may everyone have a great year ahead =)Newyear at Times Sq was an experience to e experineced. I.e. do it once, and don't do it again. Went at 4.30 to get a spot on the 47th street. People start filling up on sections on the 43rd street to about 55th street, I reckon 47th street ain;t too bad. I thought our spot wasn't too bad. Managed to move and

7 days in Orlando and 4 of which in theme parks...theme parks overkill, no doubt, but I'm lovin' every minute of it *contented grin*Strangely enough, the first step into the park I felt kinda extravagent. I mean, all the materials and manpower and energy guzzling machines...FRIVOLOUS!!!! The laser shows and fire effects shooting rightt into the sky, not to mention the big space its taking up.

When I was young, and I knew about atrocities, violence, crimes, that happened, there were 2 ways I comforted myself. 1. These things happened in the past. Society has matured; no one does barbaric acts anymore. 2. No country will allow such things to happen anymore. (How could they?) People are sure to step in.When I grew older, I was still naiively sure of those facts. The UN will step in, or

Monday was nice. I was really touched...kevin xiao wei sze yen guo lu rachel came to my room with 2 tubs of ben and jerry's and a big box and we spontaneously sat down and ate ice cream. Then after crapping awhile...i asked xiao wei whose box was it tht she brought in...and she said, its not hers. and kevin said, its not his too. And then I didn't think too much about it, but kevin kept muttering

I'm Happy. Happy with a capital H. For the first time since I reached AnnArbor. Chicago was GREAT. I never laughed like that since touching down. I never felt so exuberant just looking at skyscrapers. I think Chicago is prettier then Manhatten, but it could only be because when I went to Manhatten I cam e from Singapore, now I'm going to Chicago from AnnArbor which is a bloody ulu town. I never

Reading chat logs from last year. I can't beleive how immensely happy and carefree I sounded before As, during As and after As. And thinking of that just can't help but bring tears (I know that sounds stupid). Don't tell me this permanently marks the end of my happy carefree years...Thinking of those times when everyone in the class takes the same subjects, and even though we always said we were

our song:怎么去拥有一道彩虹怎么去拥抱一夏天的风天上的星星笑地上的人总是不能懂不能知道足够如果我爱上你的笑容要怎么收藏要怎么拥有如果你快乐不是为我会不会放手其实才是拥有当一阵风吹来风筝飞上天空为了你而祈祷而祝福而感动终于你身影消失在人海尽头才发现笑着哭最痛那天你和我那个山丘那样的唱着那一年的歌那样的回忆那么足够足够我天天都品尝着寂寞才发现笑着哭最痛wo…如果你快乐再不是为我知足的快乐叫我忍受心痛=(( Reminds me too much of home and 'm STILL missing home and my holidays.

Want to recount everything that happened:Travelled to Ontario, Canada, to the Niagara Falls (Ni-Ah-Grah). Took the Maid of the Mist nearer the falls, and got splashed! And then we walked on the Rainbow Bridge from Canada to USA (New York State) and back to Canada again! The town Niagara in Canada is ROCKING. Casinos, Hard Rock Cafe, Marvel Comics Store, Hersheys Megastore...reached home at 2am.

3rd day in Ann Arbor. Missing home, its hot, campus is not tht pretty, america is not as dry and cold as you think. As a matter of fact, its hot and smewhat humid ( my hair ain't drying) but the people are as obese. Think the level of development of a place should be measured by how progressive the stationary they sell. I mean, hello, writing determines how civilised you are and if you sell

I'm so sad my temp job stint is finally comin to an end. The people are so nice and the environment is so relaxed...Its so fun being a temp but the sad fact is, not only can't I take temping as a career (=P), its only fun when i'm young. (Can you imagine being a temp at 30?)And I love being 19 in general. IF even 20 somethings are feelng old, its hih time to appreciate being still 19.I'm going to
