#4 : -blank-

So I missed 2 weeks of blog entries, what a display of lack of discipline. However, to give myself an excuse, my internet was down for the last 2 weeks. (Actually only 1 week but there was so much "online debt" to clear that I used last week to enjoy the full value of my internet subscription) To tell the truth, life without the internet was really pretty unbearable. Luckily for some gym sessions, a Sentosa volleyball outing and CP's place, I managed to survive the ordeal.

I mentioned clearing "online debt". That is specifically surfing facebook, downloading..I mean saving shows and playing online games. The most important was catching up on the episodes of Lost, Fringe and Flashforward. And I started a new MMORPG called Aika Online to play together with Joel, CP, SH, Dam they all. The first thing I did when I got back my internet access was to go on facebook. However, I realised that I went back to the same pages (Mousehunt); and that was a lame thing to do. The MMO was quite ok but I realised that if the others weren't playing, it was no fun at all. Still, the most satisfying would be the shows. Anybody want some shows like Lost, Fringe, Flashforward, Chuck, Castle, Lie to Me, Leverage, can ask me. Haha. Alternatively, if you know who SL is, look for him.

Being cooped up at home without internet access, I found out that I became very disconnected because I had lost my main source of connection, Messenger. Being internet-less, it was like I had no friends, not that I have many that I talk to online regularly. But the feeling was as if I was put on a desert island. It was like I had stuff to chat about but I couldn't.
Sadly, even though my internet is back, I still feel like a lonely island. People are online but I've got nothing to say. I guess this feeling sucks more...

Anyway, I shall be chasing my shows this coming week. Any recommendations which I should chase first? Lie to Me, Leverage or Castle? Whoever sees this please advise. Thanks.
Bye.

Weekly Entry #3 : freedom?

So I managed to get myself to write another weekly post. Yay!

Exams are finally over!! Really been quite a demanding period of time, but I managed to survive through it. Hopefully I do well enough for the papers because I was losing steam halfway through. I almost gave up on IT and Biz Law. But luckily got scolded over SMS for trying to give up. Haha. So I studied quite some bit this semester, more than last semester I am proud to say.

Until Thursday, I still couldn't wait for the exams to be over and start my holidays. However, on Friday morning, it dawned on me that it was the last day of school for me for this year. After this, things are gonna change quite some bit. 1 more week and I wouldn't be staying in hall anymore, not that there are many people in hall now; many have moved out. I don't know whether I'll be seeing these friends I made over the past year anymore. Somehow, I felt a sense of emptiness, having the feeling that my social circle has just shrunk into the size of just one person, me. Before the exams I thought I would be able to enjoy and have loads of fun, now I'm having second thoughts. I think I'm just gonna rot away in silence at home. Wondering what's everybody's plans for the holidays...

So it looks like I'm just gonna take one step at a time and see how things go then. Meanwhile, catch up on all my serials. MUAHAHA

I'm Mr Lonely

Weekly Entry #2

Ok, so I missed one entry. Not an easy habit to build, I guess.

So, the exams are coming again. It's like A levels every 4 months, really good training to handle stress. I'm actually pretty worried for this semester because the subjects require more memory work, of which I'm pretty lacking. And once again, the exams are all close to each other: Mon Tues Thurs Fri. On the bright side, I get it over and done with in a shorter time. I only have one more day to study before the exams start. I've been trying to tell myself not to get stressed as there is still time. But there really is a shortage of time, all thanks to IT, which is almost purely memory work, and useless memory I have to add.

I really hope all things turn out well because this might be my only chance to pull up my GPA.

Well, I guess there's just quite some stuff on my mind that's sort of distracting me from my studies. Gotta concentrate! I can't even concentrate on typing this post, already been typing for like 20mins. My thoughts just keep drifting away...

Ok, I'll end off here, and see if I can remember to write another entry next week (which is after exams!!!)

Weekly Entry #1

Well, I've decided to make a blog entry once a week at least. Need to make my brain work and think instead of leaving studies stagnant in there. But I wonder how long it will last; I'll be proud if I even make an entry next week.

Anyway, today is like some exercise day. Morning soccer with bro and friends, afternoon bowling with mum and bro followed my table tennis. I haven't felt this exhausted in a long time. My legs are aching, especially my knee. Not that it's pain but it's just a weird feeling, a sense of fatigue in there. But it is still pretty fulfilling because it's as if I clocked my exercise quota for 3 weeks.

On the way to bowling, my brother asked me what "emo" meant. At that point of time when I was trying to determine the meaning, I suddenly felt a tinge of "emo-ness" when I thought about how soon exams were coming and how far away some people seemed to me recently. More "emo-ness" when my mum told me that she was gonna bring me on a tour in June. Well, it's supposed to be a good thing and I should be happy. But, I was thinking, that means 2 weeks less left in Singapore before I go for Instep. I think I'm gonna miss some people in Singapore. DARN, I sound like a wuss now.

Really shagged now, I think it's time for a day to sleep early.

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone

Touch of Sarcasm

Whee! I've finally gotten back my pre-uni weight! Wait...no! I've exceeded it! Shall not publicize this proud number, it's kinda sensitive. So much for trying to exercise and attempting to keep it down. The layer of fats just shouts "This Is SPARTA!!" and come right back. What strong determination it has; we should all learn from it. Anybody who wants to be inspired by this perseverance can come talk to my belly; that's where the most elite are housed.

So on to the next topic, exams! Well, it's like so around the corner that I'm totally filled with anticipation and anxiety. Just can't wait till the day I show off my intellect and prowess and watch all the glum faces around me as I continue to scribble whatever you would call correct answers on the booklet. And bask in the glory when I balance the balance sheets and formulate strategies just like a lawyer and determine which projects give me more returns and regurgitate everything I remember about how important IT is in the business world.

Oh great! I just remembered, 2 more quizzes till then that's so going to set me further apart from the cohort. Oh, and 2 oral assessments to give me the easiest 2 AUs ever. Just 6 more minutes of presentations to clear one module! (excluding the EXTREMELY short time I need to prepare for them)

Darn, after this one month, things are going to get boring already. What is there to do if there are no lessons and quizzes and tests and 830s? Life is looking bleak....

It's a very very mad world

Coins

Coins have 2 sides, heads and tails. The coins that we know normally only show one face up, either heads or tails. However, it is impossible that a coin has only one face. Tails will always be with heads. Thus, in a fictional world, these 2 are like opposites that are naturally attracted to each other. However, most of the time, when the 2 sides get together, they will be off-balance and topple to one side. Hence, tails will always be looking for the right heads to balance it. In a perfect scenario where both can live happily with each other, there would be balance and a special condition arises, when the coin is on its side. And the best stability is with motion when both heads and tails move along with each other, rolling the coin. Sometimes one side may get too heavy and cause a tilt. But due to the rolling, it is given a chance to regain balance. So it is a precarious situation when heads and tails are together. Random thought.....

Am I rolling on with the correct heads?
