haven't updated in ages. had so much to type but decided not to especially since i'll never know when karma's gonna bite me in the ass if i kept all the horrid stuff on my blog. ain't nothing quite like bad karma especially during holidays.
so yeah. HAPPY BIRTHDAY NELLY. my love to you~! mwah mwah mwah. hahahaha. omgggg. hope i see you today (if you even do read my blog) if not then tomorrow yes?
got my H1N1 jab on sunday. arrh. hate injections, hate needles. bleahs. played rock band at jon and raina's place. love it so much but obviously got shot down when me and sibs asked mom for one. boo. :(

no inspiration to blog nowadays. half contemplating to shut down my blog for good but well.. who knows.
KOL presentation over. now i'm just left with media law essay and exams before i can have my two weeks hols. of course, that doesn't count melbourne trip since i'm going during my study break with the fam.
i said goodbye to a person i once thought was very important to me. and the funny thing was that beneath all that shit, he was actually a fairly decent person. maybe not to me, but to his other friends.
spent the evening reading yakuza moon by shoko tendo. i read about halfway into it once but since i didn't remember the title back then, i couldn't go and buy the book (since i had borrowed it from maxie during class a while back). coincidentally saw it on the shelf near the cashier on sunday when my dad and i went to borders. we bought like $500 worth of books. i think my sister was really bugged by it coz she wants the money to spend on clothes and such. although i think books are more worth it, i dunno where the heck i'm gonna put my books.

Why do we go dancing in circles
When we know it never ends
We come so close to loving each other
And then, we go dancing in circles again

had like 312095746981 things to blog about but after my initial anger/happiness/surprise, i find myself at a loss at what to write.
resigned myself that my social calendar is nothing but blank. at least til debs and nels booked a couple of days. :) i shall none-too-subtly hint to jake that i'm very dateless and see if he'll watch 2012 with me this week. heehee.
oh yeah. anyone wanna watch paranormal activity with me? i'm really scared to watch it alone and plusplusplus my friend said there's three different endings. i told her if i manage to sit through one would be a blooming miracle so yeah. that's about it.
gee, this sounds more like an ad than a blog post but whatever.
work. school. work. no change in schedule. went to lunch with mummy. the new burger cafe at raffles. but its disappointing and totally not worth the fifteen odd dollars. i loved the apple drinks but i dont think i'll be going back any time soon. no offense but the cafe's business is probably like one-off customers who go for the novelty of it but are quite unlikely to come because a) the 'head' waitress is a damn put off, b) the place is too damn cramped and must share tables with others (even worse than kopitiam) and c) food isnt worth it. i think mosburger burgers are better and that's saddening for me to say that.

acs carnival today. had such high hopes but i was greatly disappointed. i think even at one point i turned to wj and commented 'is it me or has the recession affected schools too?' it was THAT bad.
i mean, sure, new stuff like the balls floating on water, mini-ringo circus and a kiddie race track were introduced but with such bad weather, none of it mattered. went on the meteorite ride ONCE with my bro. i love going on rides just to scream and frighten the shit out of people who are queuing up for it. xD
oh wells. thank god none of mine or wj's friends were free to come. i would have felt so bad coz i think they would have had a shitty time.

just realized that i have a big blue-black on my hip and it hurts really bad. was half asleep when i rolled onto it and it woke me up. and now its happily reminding me about it with constant twinges of pain. sighs.
relieved that my essay due date is actually next thursday as opposed to tomorrow. but i don't really have the mood to feel cheerful or anything.
So empty, can't feel no more,
As I'm left with my tears on the floor
I wait for my heart to mend,
But you keep tearing a hole

TEN RANDOM FACTS ABOUT MYSELF1. My favorite color is turquoise.
2. I combine both American and British spelling and can't tell the difference.

8. My biggest fantasy is to be Mrs. Piotr Rasputin.
9. I hate getting my hair wet (for other reasons besides bathing)

went shopping with WJ after work today. took a bus from work all the way to parkway. i reaaaaaally hate rush hour.
straight to m&s. forced WJ to try on a shirt which i don't think he really liked. didn't have the size for the shirt he wanted so he left his number for them to call us back when the stock arrives. bought some stuff at m&s too. obviously very broke after that.
went to eat kfc but i kinda lost my appetite when i saw a bug on the tray. ugh. gross. WJ kinda lost his temper at me then but i can't help it. its a major pet peeve that i wont eat once i see insects inside or even on the tray of food. its just too damn disgusting.
walked around but couldn't find what i was looking for. sighs. gonna try another place soon. hopefully can find it.
four more days to ACS carnival.

Raindrops keep fallin' on my head
And just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed
Nothin' seems to fit
Those raindrops are fallin' on my head, they keep fallin'
started raining during class today and the song popped into my mind. and it continued all way til evening. i felt like those silly, feel good movies coz i was singing it out loud from the bridge near work all the way to the lifts.
saw christine after work. felt really good to chat with her. hopefully we can meet up for lunch soon.
counting down to my brother school's carnival on sat. pray for good weather then coz i'm really looking forward to it.
shopping tomorrow evening again. i think the people at parkway must recognise me by now.

was supposed to go ikea and the nearby shopping mall with jacky yesterday but he changed his mind so we walked over to parkway to shop. went to eat at cafe but i think the standard has really gone to the dogs which is sad coz its michy, mine and jacky's favorite place to eat at parkway.
walked around parkway but jacky was feeling grumpy so our shopping trip ended pretty early. went to buy nz ice cream. loves. was really crowded and we had to wait a bit. while jacky was waiting to pay for the ice cream, some nz ice cream survey guy came up and asked us if we minded doing a survey. was gonna ask jacky to do it coz i was preoccupied with my ice cream but he turned to me so i did the survey. not too bad since i got a free ice cream coupon.
shared the ice cream with jacky while waiting for a cab. the queue was freaking long but i was too absorbed in my ice cream induced-high.
went out for buffet dinner with family and paternal side relatives. pretty good but i was really stuffed afterwards.
anyways no plans for the entire week. since its shaping up to be a quiet week, i gotta go down and buy some books to entertain moiself. or maybe i'll just log into fb and neopets. =D

finally hit home stretch. one more paper and one more presentation to go. obviously still have exams but that's waaaaaay in december. i'm just jumping for joy coz KOL is like 1/3 gone and done with.
shopping trip with jacky tomorrow. gonna go ikea for lunch but i think jake might regret it. haahah. i said i felt like taking the bus and since he's not a fan of public transport (not that i am one anyways), its gonna be a grumpy ride. :)
struggled to stay awake the whole day today coz i was up til 5am rushing project. -winces- went to starbucks for caffeine/sugar revival which worked until about half an hour ago. probably gonna crash early today too.
anyhoos, anyone wanna date me out next week?? celebrating my liberation from tons of schoolwork and my paycheck naturally.

i'm so tired but i just can't sleep. my sore throat's turned into a bad cough and i wake myself at odd hours with a coughing fit. it doesn't help that i've got an assignment, a presentation and a paper to complete by the end of thursday. seriously zero mood for anything. i just want sleep but it eludes me.
got work and class tomorrow. probably gonna work through class to finish my presentation stuff. but seriously all i want to do is take a sleeping pill and spend the next 12 hours unconscious.
