Tuesday, November 29, 2005 wah there's actually a song about me out there! 笨小孩 - 刘德华，柯受良，吴宗宪 哦...宁静的小村外有一个笨小孩 出生在陆零年代 十来岁到城市不怕那太阳晒 努力在柒零年代 发现呀城市里朋友们不用去灌溉 花自然会开 哦...转眼间那么快这一个笨小孩 又到了捌零年代 三十岁到头来不算好也不坏 经过了玖零年代 最无奈他自己总是会慢人家一拍 没有钱在那口袋 哎哟往著胸口拍一拍呀勇敢站起来 不用心情太坏 哎哟向著天空拜一拜呀别想不开 老天自有安排 哦...他们说城市里男不坏女不爱 怎么想也不明白 妈妈说真心爱会爱得很精彩 结果我没有女孩 笨小孩依然是坚强得像石头一块 只是晚上寂寞难耐 哎哟往著胸口拍一拍呀勇敢站起来 管它上山下海 哎哟向著天空拜一拜呀别想不开 老天自有安排 老天爱笨小孩 Thursday, November 24, 2005 Yup, time for another update.. 2 papers down, 2 more to go! Both the papers seemed ok to me, do-able and challenging but not tough. So I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Next up, CS 1104. I suppose, all that's left for me to do is practise, practise, practise. So that's what I'm gonna be doing for the whole of tomorrow. Only bright spot: The exam's right here in hall! So I don't need to travel at all. Still contemplating whether to go in pyjamas. ;P Got a timetable out, and have been largely keeping to it, at least last week.. This week things are slackening, but I still manage to finish most of what I planned. Actually it feels quite good to be doing things that are "good for me" rather than just whatever I want. Hmm, nothing much to say, really.. Maybe I'll make a celebratory post after my exams.. Wednesday, November 09, 2005 It was the day of the enemy assault. After months of trading artillery shells and insults, today was the day when the enemy will pit his forces against ours, in an attempt to force a decision to the contest. The morning was smoky and grey, the birds' calls drowned out by the incessant whistle and bang of the enemy's artillery. The word was passed down, "2pm". The time of the enemy assault. We were to surprise them with a counter-assault of our own, painstakingly prepared for the past week. A hurried lunch, and then back to train our eyes over the scarred and pitted landscape. Eyes straining over the smoke and haze, ears straining over the crash of shells, the whine of planes and the cries of the wounded and dying. Waiting to catch sight of the enemy. Then, in the greyness ahead, many silhouettes, flitting like ghosts, appear. Bright flashes flare between them, and the bullets sing as they zip past us. We bide our time, waiting for the order to move, hunkered down inside our foxholes. The order came to fix bayonets. This we did solemnly. The bayonets, now gleaming silver, oiled and sharpened, will be dripping red before the sun sets today. Ahead of us the roar rises to a crescendo. Then, suddenly, it stops. A shrill whistle pierces the ensuing silence, and I give the order, "Chaaaaarge!!" With a roar and a stampede that shook the earth we sprang out of our foxholes to engage the enemy. Saturday, November 05, 2005 Did I mention Jay Chou's new album really rocks? And also the song 知足 by Mayday. I'm liking Mayday more and more with every song of theirs I hear. Maybe it's finally time to buy their album! 歌曲：知足 歌手：五月天 专辑：知足 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 I've barely had time to read blogs these days. Wel I just did, and I noticed something startling -- Almost everyone in NUS is, like, chronically depressed or something. Contrast XL's hail of murderous bullets at life, LY's deep sub-surface brooding, with me granddaughter's effervescent escapades at rj, JQ's amusing account of Subway sandwiches (Hey, I'll still think the Subway tastes good lor. But then again I was never a fan of laksa). So, uh, ying I think you'd better not come to NUS! Don't want you to become like us also, haha. And everyone, erm, well if you need a listening ear, or a shoulder, or some concrete help, I'll be there. Really. Rates are reasonable too, as YX will attest to! The GEK 1509 project that's got XL so worked up is getting me worked up as well! Today's supposed to be the day we get it all over with, which is the way I want it, so that the way is clear for some serious mugging for Wednesday's test. I'm dragging my feet though, supposed to meet XL at 10am and I'm gonna be late yikes. Saw this at Tris's blog and erm, thanks Tris! Interesting results there, match what I knows about myself as well! Actually it's bad. It's, I think, the worst combination possible, of the 5 variables. That's why, despite YX's huge vote of confidence (thank you thank you thank you!!!) I still think I'm not good boyfriend material la. But I still hope to find someone who doesn't mind, and doesn't mind bopping me over the head when I get overboard, either. Anyway, results below..
LY's friend made a very good observation. He said that life is like driving. When you are not sure of what is going on, just slow down and keep further behind. Then you will not be blocked by the big thing right in front of you. I think it's time for me to slow down a bit, because I'm really not sure what's going on with me right now. I'd be moodier, just that I've become real good at diverting my mind from heavy thought on the issue. Now might not seem like the best time to dwell on it, but I think I'd better sort it out now before it begins to seriously upset my equilibrium further down the road. Whew a lot of blogging these days, ain't it? But now I really must go, before XL comes looking for me instead with his dual AKs. Tuesday, November 01, 2005 I haven't seriously blogged for more than a month now.. But I don't want to descend to the mundane, I don't want to blog about dull stuff like where I went, what I did, especially since it probably ain't too special to anyone but me. But there really isn't much else to say, so here goes.. Hall stuff first: Hockey - having loads of fun there. We have a good captain and a good squad, training attendance is the envy of most other sports, and morale is good. My prior experience helps a lot, and I'm on track for a first-team position. Thinking of it makes my hands itchy for more action, but training's suspended for the exams right now. Touch rugby - the mud and grime is a turn-off at first, some more I'm new to the game. Right now we have combined "fun touch" with an outside team, means we just play for fun since it's their off-season. After some coaching, I'm better and more composed and enjoying the game more as a result. Training's still on-going but I don't mind since it's a good break from studying. Sheares Productions - We have a great cast this year, effervescent characters all of them, and attending rehearsals is enjoyable. The real work for me doesn't start until December, so everything's ok right now. Main comm meetings are interesting also, for the ever-present tub of ice cream, and also because we have some great people making sure everything runs smooth. It's also an eye-opener to see the inside workings of an event! Voluntary Corps - Another great bunch of people, but I've put this committee rather low on my priority list so I dun really immerse myself in the activities and chitchat going on. My loss, but one can't have everything. IT Team - nothing since the first meeting. I've been made Treasurer but I barely know what that's about. All quiet on this front.. Personal stuff next: Nothing much here, really. Been on MSN a lot with my grand-daughter and with ying, and sporadically with whoever happens to be online. Usually I'm either busy working or busy playing. Occasional suppers with LY, YJ, XL and JC, even more occasional suppers with the hall guys. Gaming commitments include Quake 3, and now Civilization 4!! And when I'm home I'll be pwning the local DOD:S server with my bro, or playing Battlefield 2. A lot of people on my "must meet up" list for June have been carried over to the list for December. I hope to clear it this time! Work: Busy's the word! Especially coping with it in addition to everything else. Results so far are ok, with the notable exception of screwing up my CS 1102 practical exam. So 4 As and 1 B, lah. Provided I study hard and do well for my final exams, of course. Schedule's like this: GEK 1509 Test - 9 Nov SSA 2215 Exam - 23 Nov CS 1102 Exam - 24 Nov CS 1104 Exam - 26 Nov CS 1231X Exam - 1 Dec Then, Driving Test - 3 Dec Then, SP rehearsals start 5 Dec, VC activities start 5 Dec till 12 Dec, then sporadically for the rest of the December holidays. So I don't expect to get much rest or time to myself for the December holidays! Hmm I had more to blog about.. Haha finally burst the dam after 1 month! I'll leave it for next time then.. |
