Who needs love when you can fall in chocolate ? (: Hurhur, jema's nick.

Sylvia Plath's 'Daddy' is reeeally morbid but I'm intrigued by the darkness about it. And the allusions to ww2 and nazi germany has piqued the history buff in me. I'm still not done with King Lear but I found a really sad passage. I was really feeling for Gloucester..
I have no way, and therefore want no eyes;
I stumbled when I saw. Full oft 'tis seen
Our means secure us, and our mere defects
Prove our commodities. O dear son Edgar,
The food of thy abused father's wrath,
Might I but live to see thee in my touch
I'ld say I had eyes again!
His eyes were gouged out !!! )))): Act 3 Scene 7 was really dramatic. Ayes. This play is such a tragedy.

I am too tired and lazy to blog but I had a great nuah day out with gwei my num hunk wannabebuddy ! :D Esplanade next weds mmms and the real botanic gardens deal next time !

a friend's msn nick
'hey you! love me back!'
hurhur.
And so a last minute change in plans meant a huge change in our last minute plans. THEN MICHELLE TANG (she'll never read this but what the heck) PANGSEH-ED TO STUDY. >( (we all have to study too you know !!!!) Xunny had to go meet her friend. And so, sally and I tarpau-ed food to her house and she made salad and heated up pork and we feasted whilst watching nigella feasts ! Haha, and some show about egyptian mummies. I had a really fun time just nuah-ing at her place (: THEN ! We proceeded to make APPLE CRUMBLE :D Which is actually really easy and thanks to Sally, I've discovered the wonders of videojug.com. Love it ! Hahaha.. 'How to give a great homie handshake' ! And 'How to do the cabbage patch' ! (it's a real lame dance move, not impressed by dancin' kim) Hahaha.. Anyhoo, our dessert was not bad for a random first try with lotsa weird proportions. Yay us !
I'm naturally quiet and reserved in a big group but I don't suppose I mind mad people, haha. The guys were cracking up over 'ha penny' cos it sounds like part of the male anatomy and why am I not surprised that they only have half ? Lols.
According to db, I need to be a better stalker. I'm sure dear gwei will agree. Sighzzz. Haha ! Why so difficult ? Flaps arms !
I'm such a wonderful person. HAHAHA. Rare moment of thick skin. Ayes, I'm only at act 3 of King Lear. Sobzxzxzx. I'm going as mad as Lear himself.

Okay, so my whole 'holiday' is turning out to be a tragicomedy. Or rather a tragic tragicomedy. Seeing as how there are two tragedies. The first being how I am so super screwed for all my modules except perhaps 2221 and especially en1101e. 2224 is not turning out to be fabulous, I feel weird not doing physical geog. The second tragedy is King Lear. My reading of it is probably the only academic related activity I'm engaged in currently. Finally, the comedy will unravel when I look back on how much time I've wasted on laughing, and laugh myself silly till I start to weep. Which brings us back to the tragedy. How hilarious is that ?
So I overslept and did nonsense things that have no value addedness whatsoever. And studying at db's place translated to nuah-ing, facebooking and disturbing her dog bruno. RAH. Msn is currently down so I am annoyed. Oh and the sengkang lrt is so confusing. I ended up joyriding around the same WRONG loop TWICE.
Why art thou heartless ? :(
Db drove me like about 100 or so metres !!! EXCITING !!!! I shall not explain why I feared for my safety though, haha. I hope I can squeeze in Act 3 and half of 4 tomorrow ! Soup spoon on thurs hokay gwei ! I still feel like having dimsum though. Hrms.

It is very hard to plan things especially when no one is taking the initiative and I obviously am tired of always doing the mass messaging and whatnot. Is it because I'm supposedly the free-est person ? (and only because I choose to be a bloody slacker ??? lols)
Sigh. We need graces. And for the dafc people to be more proactive.
It's quite interesting really. Cos I was supposed to meet jq and hrk last friday but jq cancelled last minute. Because of that I decided to head home and try the bus stop near biz. That placed me at the heng mui keng bus stop about ten minutes before the crane fell, killing three construction workers and narrowly missing the bus stop. It was so close, Thank God.
And another miracle happened today. My sister very miraculously managed to appeal into aj. Despite putting it as second choice. Despite telling the band teacher that she'd prefer nyjc (they were ready to give it to her). Despite the very many firm NOs from the teacher. And then they just called and accepted her. How miraculous is that ? Praise God mans ! I shall go thank the teacher or something when I go back..
I've been sick-ish ever since I learnt mahjong at zkai's place around 2 weeks ago. ): RAH. If this keeps up, I'm going to have to drag myself to the doctor.
I'm not even panicking when I should be panicking for not panicking about schoolwork and projects. This is confusing but the bottom line is that I should be in some sort of panicked state. Sigh. I've to finish reading Lear by thursday. And I've only started Act 2. Good thing the test consists of only mcq. I'm still unsure of whether I can s/u it.. Sigh.
In other news, (but what else is new), I WANT TO EAT DIMSUM.

Fairest Cordelia, that art most rich being poor,
Most choice forsaken, and most loved despised,
Thee and thy virtues here I seize upon.
Be it lawful I take up what's cast away.
Gods, gods ! 'Tis strange that from their cold'st neglect
My love should kindle to inflamed respect.
Thy dow'rless daughter, King, thrown to my chance,
Is queen of us, of ours, and our fair France.
Not all the dukes of wat'rish Burgundy
Can buy this unprized precious maid of me.
Bid them farewell, Cordelia, though unkind.
Thou losest here, a better where to find.

How sweet is this ? (: Though the early english is still baffling me to no end.

Saturday was spent lunching at bugis, gallivanting around haji lane, checking out the lime flea market at scape, enjoying bubble tea at cine and steamboating at nad's !
Okay, I cheated. I adjusted exposure and contrast ! But I love the colours and the kitties !

The full moon. Beautiful. I walked home from the station and really enjoyed basking in the milky glow..***
YAYYYY TERM BREAK !
Haha. As if I've actually done anything to deserve a break at all. =S
Throat hurts like hell. Missed the meeting with the acappella group today. ): Damn, I shouldn't have eaten the mars bar. It'll be a miracle if I manage to croak through this weekend. In other news, I am broke. Like a seriously broke. Like flashing lights, alarm bells and angry parents broke. Sigh.
I have a feeling I will oversleep. And I feel like playing squash ! But I don't have the equipment ! Rah. I feel like going to the beach too. And pulau ubin. And bukit timah hill. Blah.
Someone dumped their cny pussy willow at the void deck. I found it utterly sad because many buds were still unopened. I mean, it was still in the process of growing and LIVING. My mother was saying that some people deliberately not water their pussy willows so that they won't grow cos the small buds look nicer. I am quite outraged. (okay, that's quite strong a word but yeah) ! I mean, people just buy things for what they symbolise or represent rather than what they are ! It's the same thing with the rodent craze because of the year of the rat. I'm not a superstitious person (superstitious and paranoid are two different things ! more on that later..) so I suppose I don't understand the importance of doing things for reasons other than its intrinsic value. Okay, yes tradition is one thing but throwing out pretty plants just as they are starting to grow is just very sad. ): I asked my parents to take the discarded pussy willow home (cos ours is kinda dying anyway.. it's lived quite a full-plant life !) but they didn't want to. Sad. It's such a pity.
Speaking of being paranoid, apart from fear of emerging klepto tendencies, I also am very afraid of when I'm in the car and as it gets loaded up with petrol, it'll explode. That plus how I am very afraid of becoming an orphan. When my parents talk about going on holiday I always feel as if I'm just going to regret not being nice to them and all. I don't know why I think about such stuff so much really..

As I listened from a beach-chair in the shade
To all the noises that my garden made,
It seemed to me only proper that words
Should be withheld from vegetables and birds.
A robin with no Christian name ran through
The Robin-Anthem which was all it knew,
And rustling flowers for some third party waited
To say which pairs, if any, should get mated.
Not one of them was capable of lying,
There was not one which knew that it was dying
Or could have with a rhythm or a rhyme
Assumed responsibility for time.
Let them leave language to their lonely betters
Who count some days and long for certain letters;
We, too, make noises when we laugh or weep:
Words are for those with promises to keep.

A very beautiful poem titled Their Lonely Betters. The irony is how much 'better off' we are, given our capacity for knowledge and our ability to comprehend concepts such as time and responsibility. Emotions are so much more real when one does not use words. A single tear, hollow laughter.. Okay too tired to expound.

You know, I was thinking about this yesterday night. I'm afraid of forgetting my grandfather. I don't want to wake up one day and suddenly forget his hoarse voice and short sentences. I don't want to forget his papery thin skin and blue veins like rivers. I don't want to forget how he loved reading his chinese books (they were short stories in book-like magazines) and how he loved telling me about how to handle stamps and how he always listened when I begged him to take me to yaohan and how he brought me on walks to see the neighbourhood dogs.
I can't stop crying now as all the memories come flooding back. Of how good he was to me especially and how I was too young and too stupid to appreciate him enough. And how in retrospect, the time we had was so short. And how when he was so weak I couldn't even tell him I loved him.
I just don't want to have nothingness for memories. Where colour and touch and smells and sounds in five, ten years, fade away into nothing. Merely names and barely there recollections. I really miss him and wish he could be here now, now so that I can really just sit beside him, even in silence, and feel contented knowing he is well and safe. I want to do that. I want to just sit on the couch under the fan and feel comforted by his presence.
In the whole almost twenty years of my life, this is my biggest regret. I just have to tell myself and feel reassured that he's safe in God's arms.
I miss you ah gong..

Anyhoo, am too tired to blog about today but I know tomorrow through saturday will be tiring. Plus I need to do my soci essay, rah.
I loved vday in Cedar. Running around with hershey's kisses in hand.. Roses thriving in makeshift vases.. Desks cluttered with gifts and notes rather than work.. (: It was fun, it was warm, it was not complicated.
I got this off navleen's facebook. But I've read the book before. It's one of Murakami's less complicated novels heh..
"Are you waiting for the perfect love?" He asked.
"No, even I know better than that. I'm looking for selfishness. Perfect selfishness. Like, say I tell you I want to eat strawberry shortcake. And you stop everything you're doing and run out and buy it for me. And you come back out of breath and get down on your knees and hold this strawberry shortcake out of me. And I say I don't want it anymore and throw it out the window. That's what I am looking for." She said.
"I'm not sure that has anything to do with love," he said with some amazement.
"It does," she said. "You just don't know it. There are times in a girl's life when things like that are incredibly important."
"Things like throwing strawberry shortcake out the window?"
"Exactly. And when I do it,I want the man to apologize to me. 'Now I see... What a fool I've been! I should have known that you would lose your desire for strawberry shortcake. I have all the intelligence and sensitivity of a piece of donkey shit. To make it up to you, I'll go out and buy you something else. What would you like? Chocolate mousse? Cheesecake?"
"So then what?"
"So then I'd give him all the love he deserves for what he's done."
"Sounds crazy to me."
"Well, to me, that's what love is. Not that anyone can understand me though. For a certain kind of person, love begins from something tiny or silly. From something like that or it doesn't begin at all."
--Norwegian Wood

Crazy eh ? But love. I don't know. I don't know what LOVE means. I can't even begin to comprehend God's unselfishness or maybe a parent's 'obligation' to his child. (okay am too tired to expound so..) I always think it's too strong a word. Something that cannot be trifled with. I am not sure whether it is comprehension or incomprehension (there's such a word right ?) that makes it so sacred and profound.

An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
And isn't it ironic...dontcha think
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought...it figures
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
"Well isn't this nice..."
And isn't it ironic...dontcha think
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought...it figures
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up
In your face
A traffic jam when you're already late
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn't it ironic...dontcha think
A little too ironic...and yeah I really do think...
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought...it figures

Have to rush two essays tomorrow. The 2221 one is more important but I foresee myself spending the whole thursday out so I suppose I shall have to complete it earlier. I have no idea what's the status of 2218 currently. Amy Winehouse is cool and not because she swept many of the grammys.
The Choir brought back some xiamen memories. They participated in the same category as us ! But didn't make it past the first round. It made me think about how fortunate we were and how different our standards and expectations were. Sigh. Made me think of the rollercoaster of a journey and how I am so glad that I persisted in going in the end. On a more frivolous note, has anyone seen a cuter conductor ?

I'm still awaiting photos of Ruz's farewell which ironically do not contain the special girl. Hahah, oh wells she had to leave early. This rude screaming bitch of a lady almost created a scene. I was personally quite afraid she was going to confront us for staring but nothing happened thankfully. And to think she is a TEACHER. Someone that young minds are supposed to emulate and respect. The stuff she said and the tone she used really made my blood boil. How does someone like her even qualify for such a noble profession ?
Anyhoo, it was an expensive night. The dinner, the cab fare, the gifts haha.. There was a MAAAAAAAADDDDDDDD VERY LAST MINUTE rush for presents at J8. And we were making the collage thing in some small corner of city hall mrt, lols. Even though a lot of times I work better under pressure, it doesn't mean I like it. And and, I really really dislike organising outings. Not only because of the amount of effort it takes and my dislike for texting but because I always seem to end up doing it because no one really cares enough to take the initiative.
But thanks a lot db for sharing the burden and putting up with a sick and therefore very disgruntled me.
Anyhoo, I brought them to the arts house to camwhore and talk (gw ! next photoshoot day hokays !) not knowing about the action(s?) that took place within the swell of people. Hurhur. We spent quite a while there taking nonsense pics in bad lighting (cos flash sucks) and the nel people took a cab back..
Before the farewell cum ber's belated birthday, I was enjoying the SCRUMPTIOUS BREAD PUDDING at gwei's place. (: My first mahjong win was at his place ! With lots of PONGs ! And some flowers too. I am really bad at Bluff so we shan't play that again. Although the only game that uncle gerald seems to know is blackjack. =.= Oh, and the lobster was distracting me ! Hahaha. Almost za hu-ed. We listened to great music and had a colouring er contest, haha. It was fun.. OUTING SOON OYYY !
In the morning we went over to Ms Zhu's place ! Gosh, her sister is very cute, same pattern as ms zhu. Tmx went crazy and became ms christine zhu's new best friend. Haha. It's funny cos we all didn't expect cy and terence to be there so there was this whole gender divide again. And oh yes, further cemented with frequent ns talk thanks to regina's being in bmt. We were also amused at charlene's and jq's attempt at the violin.. Haha, I want to learn too !

That was my very eventful saturday. Today was dull in comparison because I am quite unwell. And just as I started getting better and excited over prospect of mahjong-ing more, in the end pyong decided to stay home to study for BTT, gerald was so wishy washy and gwei was not allowed to go out. RAWWWWRRRR. My efforts at organising anything with the choir gang never bear fruit. Sigh.
I hope I don't oversleep tomorrow.. And may I recover from the horrid flu and sore throat ! Oh but yes, we had a very amusing conversation disturbing some poor n00bish soul. Hurhur. The Victoria's Secret models are hot ! Heidi Klum :D !
In other news, PLAN B has been initiated. Preliminary testing and results will be out soon ! I hope. Hahahaha.

A larger variety of interesting projects and more spectacular activity-filled outings. And I want to be more consistent with work though I really doubt ANYTHING's going to come out of it. Knowing me. Knowing you. Aha. HAHA.
I feel fat. And I can't wait for saturday ! Y'know, I spent about 3 hours chopping veggies today instead of being a good girl and not oversleeping so that I can attend lectures. Ho hum. Why do I not surprise myself ?
Darn. I suddenly feel like traveling with friends. PTEN ARE WE GOING TO BANGKOK !?!??! Lols. Siam kitchen was no kick mans. We need the real deal ! 27 dresses was nice and chick flick-ish but overly cliched. Katherine Heigl does rock though ! (: Sweeney Todd next ! I hope I won't have to watch it with my eyes half closed. =S
I really cannot stand the fact that what we're working on is SUPER UNORIGINAL. Dammit. I hate being mainstream. Even though a lot of the time I'm another faceless sheep. BUT STILL I TRY. Hrmph. It gives me no satisfaction at all to be doing something I do not believe in. ): But what can I do ? I am overruled. I hate group work.

Yes, there is officially an emo dove flying above my head.
(reference to soci lecture where someone thought the eagle in the poster was an emo dove, lols)
HAHA. Plan B shall be initiated after CNY.

KTV was utter madness ! In terms of cost and the highness that ensued, hurhur. I really had a lot of fun ! It was at the expense of my wallet though. ): I'm so glad we didn't have to sing cheena piang songs all night.. It was mostly oldies, disney hits, spice girls and aqua ! Gosh, hurhur. I'll post photos once celine uploads them..
Saturday was ALMOST a flop due to the lack of communication, some pangsehing and some oversleeping. BUT I met jema and qua in the end and we had a lot of fun hanging out at harbourfront centre and vivo. We had a nice talk (: And took manymany photos ! Jema's camera is a virgin no more ! Hurhur. I'm psyched to be seeing the whole lot (minus sally ): and graces of course) later for thai food and 27 dresses !
The last minute movie outing to make up for the failure of friday's mandatory meeting was interesting. On gerald's request, we watched The Kite Runner and I tell you, it was very very traumatising. (RAWWWRRR CHICK FLICKS, DISNEY AND COMEDIES FROM NOW ON !) But still, it was a really good and sad movie. I almost cried thinking about how such injustice and suffering can take place on a daily basis whilst we're enjoying our lives so...
Anyway, am re-watching some episodes from season 4 of the office. My fingers are still crossed and I've thought up of some backup plans. HAHAHA. Yes, I am quite determined thank you. I feel like lunching at thomson hrmms.. And I don't feel like going to school at all this week. =/ I can't wait for popiah ! Hurhur, one of my favourite parts of cny.
A hilarious quote from dwight from the office:
'i just want to be friends. plus a little extra. and i love you.'
hahahaha. Which probably best describes db's situation. Qua ! Yay for finally uploading the photos ! (: I am so goshdarnit broke. Rahhhh.

When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The waking up is the hardest part
You roll outta bed and down on your knees
And for the moment you can hardly breathe
Wondering was she really here?
Is she standing in my room?
No she's not, 'cause she's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....
When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The giving up is the hardest part
She takes you in with your crying eyes
Then all at once you have to say goodbye
Wondering could you stay my love?
Will you wake up by my side?
No she can't, 'cause she's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....
Oooooooooohhhhhhhhh
Now do i have to fall asleep with roses in my hand
Do i have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Do i have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Do i have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Would you get them if i did?
No you won't, 'cause you're gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....
When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The waking up is the hardest part
