More stamina please.

Started attachment in school today, really happy to see familiar faces in the lab. Wanted to wake up earlier to eat breakfast in school at Mc's today, but I couldn't wake up due to my screwed bio clock. Been sleeping on the average at 3am everyday for the past week and was expected to sleep at 12 plus and wake up at 8.30am today, which is an impossible feat!! So at least I managed to reach school on time. First thing the prof said when we reached his lab was," Do you want to see your results?" And stacks of our exam papers were piled up on his desk. Very nice way of welcoming us to the lab. Haha. So.. Yep. I knew my results for my worst paper. I PASSED!!! Hope I can get a B. I expected to fail. Because I made so many mistakes. Apparently, I didn't fail the section that I expected to fail. Thank God :) Prof Y was very nice too. He taught us a few things today, thought he would just leave us without much guidance. Some profs don't guide you much and you wonder at the end of the day if you learnt anything at all. Hope that by the end of this stint in the lab, I'll be more familiar with preparing stuff.
Met Mummy at Causeway Pt. Ended up buying more stuff than I wanted. Instead of buying just shorts, ended up buying other stuff also... And I'm glad I ate enough for dinner. Coz... We bumped into my Mum's friend who has a 3 yr old little girl. She sure can run!!! Ended up chasing after her and I got NO stamina. After half an hour of playing.. I was telling her, "Jie Jie is tired cannot chase you liao."Hahahaha. Then she didn't want to let me go home. Then after I left, she was shouting at the top of her lungs, " Bye bye!!!" Little monster. Hee. But a very cute one!!! I like playing with kids.. But, realised that I probably don't have enough energy to play like one and don't have much chance to. I'm shy!! Haha.

Liberty.

Exams are FINALLY over. However.. The last paper was also my worst paper... ... Was quite disappointed that I filled in the blanks wrongly. Felt like kicking myself after checking through the notes. I really hope I can pass. Maybe a C. That's the worst I have ever done so far. :'( I blame my poor memory. Need to find more methods to improve memory!!! I WILL trust God no matter what.
Cheryl's back!!! Yay!!!It's time to start living for the hols. Phuket trip, birthday celebrations, christmas celebrations, tuition to give, books to read, friends to hang out with and exercise to do. Weeell, met Cheryl for a sumptious Jap dinner yesterday. Yummy! One of the best Jap meals I ever had.


Yup, really had a jolly good time stuffing ourselves with authentic Jap food (and not Sakae Sushi) for once. Annnnd finally, after 4 months, we can talk face to face. Felt it was some kind of surreal. Hahaha.
Have to save up for the trip... No more splurging. Ack. Sigh. Walked around Orchard and Cheryl did both of our share of shopping, so didn't need to buy anything at all :p Nah. I am really trying to save up so we can do more things over there.
Met up with Lenggity for waffles!! Yea, really missed Gelare waffles haven't eaten them for... Only God knows how long. Still... They were overpriced even when they're half-priced today. Waffletown sells nice and cheaper waffles, but not great ice cream. It's infuriating to suggest activities to a near pauper. I know. I don't like it either that I have to turn down ideas because I don't have the moolah to do them. But... I am a pauper. Sigh. 没有钱也有没有钱的玩法。Went to her place and collected my souvenir from Taiwan! Wahahaha. New bag. *Wide Grin* Then.... LEnggity designed a new blog interface for me! Hahaha. Thank you so much cuzzie!!! You know I'm hopeless with JAva and HTML. I'm just a Bioscigeek. *Wider grinz*
Borrowed some books from the lib can't wait to read them. And.... bought purple hair dye. Haven't dyed my hair yet... but... well...

Thank you God!!!

Been too lax with the exams this semester... Only started studying for my paper today at 7pm yesterday :p Yup, that's how unmotivated I am. Or maybe it's because I really cannot stand studying for microbiology. Hate memorising the names of the bacteria, I like reading it and somehow I can remember the discoveries and techniques just not the names of the bacteria and not to the T. Never liked memorising things word-for-word, I like to improvise!! But, sometimes I get the meaning wrong and therefore the answer is wrong! Sigh. I really thank God for pulling all of us through. Could answer the questions that came out and won't fail. But as for an A, it's really all up to God... Of course I hope to get As. I did say I'm leading a pretty well-balanced life. Played tennis on Monday, watched Just Like Heaven on Tuesday and STUDIED on Wednesday evening. Hai, terrible. Will not repeat this for the last paper.
Can't wait to watch Harry Potter next week!! Whee! Finally. I LOVE Draco Malfoy. Hee..

Fragile

Whatever I am going to post is just a random rambling produced by my overheated brain.
The world is full of lonely people and I admit that I am often part of this crowd. Can't be surrounded by people 24/7 and even if it were so, being in a crowd can be lonely too. So what do we do to keep these shadowy feelings at bay? We occupy ourselves with work, the companionship of other people, etc... But, somehow in some twisted way, we still feel lonely. I'm not saying that work and relationships are unimportant, but can they alone make the emptiness go away??
Tried burying myself in work to assuage these feelings and given no work to do, I'll probably get a mental breakdown. Then again, when I have work I procrastinate. (Which gives you a good idea of this crappy entry.) Studying for exams can be the most hermitical thing you can do. People are forced to isolate themselves, unless they can resist the temptation of chatting and get down to the serious business of studying. Can't go shopping, can't go watch movies, can't go do anything. I suppose this semester I've been less hermitical during this period of revision. Perhaps just more lazy.
At this moment, I don't feel that empty. I don't know if it's because there are many lonely people out there or because I know Someone loves me for being me. Sometimes, it gets a little confusing.
It's the exams and all my friends are busy mugging, most of them are not the type who can study in groups. So, that really puts a crimp on my social life. I could go back to school and look for my friends, but somehow I am too lazy to move my butt to Boon Lay. It is ridiculously far.... ... Companionship or no companionship, I can't make myself go all the way there.
Books for company and notes to talk to.
