the prince=gong?

i think the entire busload of people was witness, much to their amusement (or chagrin)to the absolutely enlightening conversation between kai chee and i about chinese proverbs, good-looking people, ah-sohs and aunties who should stop wearing teenage clothes, amidst a whole lot of rancourous laughter and intermittent gasping for air.

screw you, database and access!

listening to: london bridge - fergie

our IT project is almost done! and i felt really bad 'cos i didnt really know what was happening, and i was/am very sorry about that. so i volunteered to do the executive summary. but somehow i still feel as if i havent contributed enough. dammit. screw you, IT!

------------

im bloody tired and this below, is one of the main reasons for it.

rafa, rafa, rafa. why rafa? as much as im pissed at/with you, i know you are a genius manager who is capable of leading the kop to glory above all. but why do you have to rotate the squad so much? i understand the need to keep the players fresh and fit for both the champions' league and the premiership, but take note of this equation :

rotation + disheartened players + negative attitudes = disgusting and pathetic football.

you want this:

positive attitudes + lightning/flowing football + love for the team and winning = guaranteed wins.

man utd had that last night, liverpool didnt. it was painful, in the least, watching them "run" around trying to get the ball. i think rotating the players are fine but stick with at least 85% of the team everytime! when was the last time hyypia, riise, carragher and finnan actually played together? this was the back four that held the highest number of cleanest sheets last season, with the second best defensive record, letting in goals only from chelsea and bolton! they won 11 games straight and now it pierces my heart so watching them flounder like fish out of water.

but no matter what, tauntings aside, you know that i will always love the kop.

you will never walk alone.

quote me.

during lunch at canteen 2 yesterday, sarah, huixin, yixin and i had a very scintillating conversation about guys/men in general. the kind of guys/men we find attractive and the kind we would want to end up marrying. the singular consensus was that in spite of the smouldering exotic good looks, broad shoulders, melting smiles and deep beautiful eyes of the foreign male species, we would rather marry asians.

im not taking anything away from foreign males, let me emphasise on that. i've seen and heard of many who put all those in hollywood and elsewhere to shame. but why foreigners for eyecandy and locals for marriage?

it was rather surprising to realise that for all the modernity and evolution in generation we purport to possess, ultimately we're still very much old-school. traditions and values are the biggie. im pretty sure not everyone feels this way, so maybe it's simply the four of us.

this got me thinking about why i haven't seen the need to have a boyfriend. i may sound like a hopeless romantic, but i honestly believe that you don't have to go around finding one 'cos the right one will come to you eventually (with a little iniative haha). sure, everywhere i go, i have one/more eyecandy, but that's all it is. i don't know. maybe im waiting for someone to among other things, simply sweep me off my feet; give me a reason to do what i do everyday, and above all to love me for who i am - flaws and all.

"I wanna make you smile whenever you're sad / Carry you around when your arthritis is bad / All I wanna do is grow old with you. / I'll get your medicine when your tummy aches / build you a fire if the furnace breaks / Oh it could be so nice, growin old with you. / I'll miss you, kiss you, give you my coat when you are cold. / Need you, feed you, I'll even let you hold the remote control. / So let me do the dishes in the kitchen sink / Put you to bed when you've had too much to drink. / Oh I could be the man to grow old with you. / I wanna grow old with you" - robbie, the wedding singer

to quote myself: "hot guys can't be pimpled. but pimpled guys can be hot!"

my week-ed life.

its been over a week since i last went online. so here's a update on my very exciting life haha.

monday
ever wanted to have a commercial happen to you? well, i've always wanted it and it did! haha it was pretty much a routine day; business law tutorial in the morning after which i went to the toilet outside the hss libby. when i came out of the cubicle, the commercial started. the girl standing beside me was wearing THE EXACT same outfit, right down to the same shade of jeans! most females would hate to be caught in such a fashion faux pas situation, but all i could think of was "OMG IM IN A COMMERCIAL!" hahaha. both of us pretended not to notice that the other was wearing the same thing but it was still hilarious all the same :)

tuesday
finally finished my accounting project. had friends of children after that. and the three kids were so cute haha. played hangman/told jokes after the session was over. despite the fact that i reach home only past 10.30 every tuesday night, its worth it.

wednesday
my jubilation at the finished accounting project was shortly lived as huixin pointed out that the wrong pages were printed and huiyun's name was typed in wrongly! so there was a mad rush to the access lab to re-print the correct things! from now on, im gonna be sad till i've actually handed up my project so none of these heart-attack moments will happen haha!

thursday
IT : i probably caused my entire group to stay back and figure out what was wrong with our frickin circuit cos i couldn't figure out how to share a file over the same network. and since i didnt know how to do that, i simply didnt do it. apparently that was the reason the switch circuit failed. i know i shouldnt laugh but what the heck HAHAHAHA!

ACCOUNTING LECTURE: i just found out that my squirrel-tail excuse of a hair was well-known in other classes as well! people, if my hair sucks next time, please tell me. i have a rep to maintain aights! HAHAHA :)

friday
roast beef+cookie+shuyi's fantastic choc chip cookie=a lot of guilt.
haha 'nuff said.

saturday
my new address : hotel hamilton, lavender street. thats right people. im gonna have to travel from one end of the world to the other everyday till the end of november. wish me luck. haha but the hotel's pretty aiight. a few bus stops from bugis!

sunday
massive screwing around to undo things. HAHA. my house is now almost empty with everything in boxes. my room has become temporary storage area and all three siblings have to bunk in one room. its quite fun actually. i get to poke my youngest brother and annoy him when he wants to sleep. EVIL LAUGHTER. reminds me of when we were kids :) i'l put up pics of my pre-renovated house as soon as i buy batteries for my camera.

im looking at my clock and i think im gonna be late for business law. so till later in ntu, ciao bella!

somebody, just shoot me please.

listening to : head over feet - alanis morissette

im finally connected! and as a result, im procrastinating my ass off; blogging instead of learning my IT. but then again, that is a justifiable reason for me to procrastinate haha.

not much to blog about except that we're finally done with our accounting project. one burden down, tons more to go. to top it all off, i just found out today that there is gonna be a mini-test next thursday on all 8 lectures of accounting! and it is un-fail-able since 15% of the entire final grade depends on it. given that im trying to aim for a gpa of 4.5, i better start crammming.

speaking of cramming, i've just ingested two whole cookies on top of lunch. and i still feel hungry. that's why i've decided to ostracize myself in the library.

shoo, you monsters in my stomach! shoo!

you remove my guilty convictions, liquid green tea.

listening to : the muffled conversations in the reading room

armed with my fourth macdonald meal of the month, i am sitting in the NBS reading room doing my accounting project with yixin, huixin and sarah. i really love hanging out with the three of them, including huiyun, cos we are just so kooky. haha everytime we have lunch, there's always some new scary ghost story to be told or something stupid to be said. and the lack of inhibitions is a welcomed change, thats for sure :)

had my IT quiz earlier. im not gonna complain about my score which i think is pretty reasonable, given that all i did was skim through the notes last night and this morning. haha guess im not so IT illiterate after all!

purdy purdy people.

listening to : sleep all day - jason mraz

what a rarity; to be actually sitting down on my bed with nothing to do. given the past week, this is rather blissful. just me and mr kopazz, exploring the mindless world of celebrity gossip for the next 1 1/2 hours, with no need to do anything but. the usual monday lunch meet-up with loi actually culminated with me eating lunch (haha)and a much-needed and sorely-missed one hour viewing of the O.C.

jason whomsoever, you are a genius for creating the O.C. although im not sure what making marissa lesbian (not that she's convincing) has anything to do with the show since she's gonna get killed off anyway. the girl can't act for peanuts. alex is a pretty damn hot lesbian though! actually they're all hot, period. especially ryan (ooh). loi, thanks for the company every monday but please don't say anything about the way ryan looks haha.

my primary school friend plonked herself into the seat next to mine on the way home. i think its pretty darn amazing at how relationships form. and im very thankful for the many wonderful and lasting relationships that i've had/am having since i was a kid. the one thing i love the most about meeting up with old friends is all the reminiscing that takes place. it's not so much the thrill of living in the past, but rather it's the satisfaction of looking back at all that had happened and recognizing how each event/person/relationship has helped to shape your life and the person you are today.

yet for all the good, there is the bad. to think that after all these years, after you had hurt me and made me cry, for all the lies and deception and hypocrisy... YOU HATE ME? i was honestly surprised when i heard this cos to be honest, you don't know what i went through when i found out. to top it all off, you never apologised. and if it wasnt for a very close friend, i might have fallen into your trap. weird isn't it? the truth is, there was no reason for all that to happen. it shouldn't have but it did. i don't hate you, i can say that with conviction. it upsets me though that you can't see the truth after all this time. and i feel sorry for you.

enough about the random emo stuff. mr kopazz and i are gonna engage in more surfing until 6 when tuition starts. i just remembered that i have my accounting tutorial to finish, but what the heck. im too lazy to get up.
