Memories Are To Be Treasured...

One odd. The other gratifying. When I was taking a short nap before I launch into my studying yesterday, I had this weird dream. It was really short. I dreamed that the US had made it a rule that everyone has to have only one first name, and can only be called by one first name. Yeah, essentially, in the dream, it meant that I can be called Shu only, instead of Shu Ying. Hahaha, really weird right? Maybe my subconsious mind is still too accustomed to an authoritarian ruler. Ok not that Malaysia was authoritative, but when it comes to racial rights, she is. And now with all the Anwar stuff going on, the government to me, is really, deteriorating to the core. I'm definitely not buying the same story that popped up, was it 10 years ago or what, I can't remember, but definitely not going to take the government's word for it this time. Not that I did last time. The second dream that I woke up with tears from: Sheng Yee, Siew Lee and I were finally reunited! I think it's when...

Friday, July 18, 2008 we don't need to follow the rest. The earth and sun do not hurry; they follow their own path at their own pace. If the earth were to accelerate and complete one rotation in three hours instead of twenty-four, we would be in big trouble! The most important thing in life, too, is to find a sure and certain path and confidently advance along it. 5:11 PM from Zhiwei's blog. Thank you, my dear concubine :)

Seriously, I don't know whether to be proud or angry with these people. First, I made an appointment at the University Hospital on Wednesday to donate blood today, 2:30pm. The person who wrote down my appointment on the book, didn't do anything, like take my weight, test my blood and stuff first. She just told me to get very well hydrated and eat all my meals regularly before the donation day. And so, I ate very well these two days, mind you, I usually just get a $1.90 cheese pizza every lunch cos it's the cheapest, but today I bought myself a chicken sandwich with fried chicken breast meat, tomatoes, lettuce and topped with honey mustard, which cost me $5.76. That's a huge difference for me, and that's how far I would go in order to be able to donate blood, further if need be. Then I made my way to the hospital's blood bank. Upon reaching there, I was told by the receptionist that I need to fill out some paperwork and stuff, then she commented that I'll def...

I think out of all my friends, the only person so far that I get to meet in person at least once every year since I went to Singapore is Siew Lee. At least once. That's a great achievement, due to the fact that every year there was always something major happening either for her or for me. There was this first year that they were all having SPM, 2003. When I went back for holidays, they were all so busy with this and that, but luckily, I got to meet Siew Lee twice after her SPM were all done and before I went back to Singapore. Then the following year, 2004, I had my O Level's, which delayed my return to Ipoh. I remembered we met up during the end of the year cos there were presents as evidence, but I've seriously forgotten the occasion and the location =X Then in 2005, I got delayed again due to OP stuff in JC, but still managed to meet her twice before she left for Taiwan for a month of student exchange :) That was a tough period for me cos of family stuff, but luckily sh...
