Chimo and a sleeping Molen.

attempt of a photo of Munich. will still need to touch up abit. but i'm happy!! for some reasons,
the lines are all slanted. maybe i need to correct my writing posture.

lol. i think i'm going nuts.

went online at 6.30 am cos i thought i forgot to check the exam results. but turns out they're not out yet?? btw i found the detective conan comics!! so i'm reading them.

oh this is what i used to do. list of books to read this vacation:
  • Travels in the Land of Kubilai Khan - Marco Polo
  • A Spot of Bother - Mark Haddon
  • The Story of Art - EH Gombrich
  • A Vindication of the Rights of Woman - Mary Wollstonecraft
  • Detective Conan 44, 46, 47, 48, 49 and, if i get them in time, 45 and 50 and 51. lol.
it's alright.
a happy Christmas to all who celebrate :)

might as well make a second list.overall i've been rather productive this holiday. yep. so important things to do:
  • read the books
  • make some earrings for my brother (i'm going to be paid doing this)
  • practise watercolour
omg gotta break the list a while. whoa lucky met a friend online. so the results ARE out. er...except for History and Theory of Modern Architecture and Structural Systems, i kind of expected the rest. the History exam went quite badly so ya i guess it's okay considering that. Structural Systems went okay (i thought) and the projects' grades are okay so i was kind of disappointed. but oh wells. :)

the oral exam went not too well (as oral exams are bound to). but oh well it's over. at least i can now indulge in as many english songs and english books as i want. today forced myself to listen to german songs to get into the "mood". didn't really help, sadly. but but..it might have been worse...

flight tomorrow.
i'm getting anxious. yea why? because i'm going home soon. feels like there's a deadline. it's kind of like despair.

just saw this documentary on computer game addiction on DW-TV. what do you think of it? i think it's such a waste if you spend all your life playing computer games. sure, i don't know the joys (or importance) of playing. but i understand. i have many hobbies too (like lying down and doing nothing or talking on the phone). at least i remain conscious that these are a waste of time when indulged in excessively. the problem with the computer game i guess is that people stop thinking properly. you should've seen this "symposium" of like hundreds of people playing computer in this dark room. it's a freaky scene man.. as it is, my youth is passing me by and i haven't done enough!!

the problem with people, of course, is that there's no such thing as 'enough'. there's not enough time, not enough money, not enough everything. real worried about the oral exam. i haven't practised a single bit. lol. worse still, i haven't been keeping up with current affairs. i hope i get an easy topic.

will go home this saturday. zaterdag. this is awesome (makes me want to cry):

from many many years ago. lol. i'm a fan of boyzone still. of their old songs anyway. i'm going to post many. lol. since i have the time. one of my favourites: (and now i realise that the defect in the cassette tape is not just in mine!! lol. it probably affected the entire production line in asia or something)


Boyzone_Melting pot - Boyzone

and if you're free watch the live version at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTD2y2aKaz4
and this one from many years ago. cool. the internet is a cool place. lol. things i never got to watch or hear at the time (because they were only released in ireland or the UK and stuff.)

you know, things happen. i don't know the details so i can't say much. but ya. this is the only thing i can say: "it's ok but it's also not ok. it's not ok but it's also ok." it may not be very good english but well that's that. it's ok because all sorts of things can happen in life, some good, some bad, just take it as it goes. it's not ok because every bloody event contributes to your life and contributes to the making of you as a person. that's what i think. and what i hope is that things don't make you a bitter person, that's all.

omg this is driving me nuts!! they say curiosity kills the cat. the cat is in a coma! it's eating my brain. i know half of it was already gone last year, but still let me keep what i have left..

watch funny shows online. it gives you good mood.

weirder things happened. someone ran up to me and gave me thirty bucks.

anyway i borrowed three german books from the library to read, hopefully before the exam. got to chiong.. my classmates said "too late lah.." and i said no, i think it helps lol. 'big mistake' is nice.. but this is my favourite song from natalie imbruglia. so bloody cool. yeah i live pathetically in the past. i listen to old songs, read old books, etc.



why the sudden. argh i'm so curious, but i shouldn't think of it. this thing called hope, it scares me.
