charmed no more :( and so i find myself back at the science library since 730 in the morning on what is supposed to be the first day of the mid sem break. I wonder why they don't just call it... "4-random-days-without-structured-lessons-but-our-students-still-remain-drowning-in-work" or"4-random-days-so that-we-can-justify-purposely-putting-all-deadlines-back-to-back" or "4-days-disguised-as-breathers-but-is-actually-to-ensure-our-students-don't-die-before-we-complete-our-torture-seqence"

the library smells the same from when we left off during study break last sem. the toilets however smell strangely foul considering the library is rather empty. The chocolates, green tea and coffee find their way back to the make-shift *cough* totally illegal pantry area we created behind the blinds of our usual level 6 table. The view's the same. well wat do ya expect, new swanky expensive buildings to POP outta no where??? Oh wait i see..University Hall Oooh fergeddit.

i'm sad about a few things lately. Not big things. small things. Like how i can't spend time at home buggin my mum instead of muggin. Or how Charmed is ending after 8 seasons... (still haven't recovered from Buffy, The nanny, Mad about You, F.R.I.E.N.D.S, Ally Mcbeal) sob after 8 seasons you get attached to the characters, no matter how made-up they are. its what the telly does.. it makes you believe in a whole new place (think wisteria), whole new lives (think OC), whole new friends (think F.R.I.E.N.D.S duh), whole new careers ( think ally mcbeal or buffy) and even whole new planets (think star trek). And its sad.. i liked charmed. It was good. Well at least most of their seasons were. Read somewhere that its actually the longest running series starring all femal leadS. notice its leadS..cause Murder She Wrote takes the award for femal LEAD. Dang. nobody likes their fairytales to end. Why do you think we mourned with Brad and Jen broke up?

oh shucks... i hope Allyssa Milano does something else soon. something good.
meanwhile i shall check out 9 lives on central tonight. wasn;t impressed with first epi..hoped its improved. gtg back to muggin..tata  ¶ 9:02 PM 2 comments

  Blog coverage on appending war. And so its begun. To put it bluntly, the situation's really bad and although i try my best to muster whatever optimism and courage i have within me, i realise that there's no turning back because it's too late. In approximately 5 days, lollipops, overpriced flowers and chocolates, repulsive heart shaped ornaments of all kinds - metallic, furry, plastic, attached to an even more replusive and disproportionate teddy bear, vomit inducing cliches and tacky poems that actually rhyme WILL take over the world we know. The war is waging and it seems that Hallmark is the only party left standing waist deep in consumer dollars. *one minute silence*

HOokay before you start labelling me a cold-hearted envious skeptical single B*tch, let me defend myself. Its not that i absolutely HATE Valentine's Day or V day as we all well versed in hip-lingo may know it as. Now, i don't mind like a simple gesture, something sweet. Sure! afterall why go and be a spoilspot? celebrate go ahead.. but seriously no need to overdo anything right. LOOK. if it takes a "god-knows-if-its-really-a-day-of romance" to jolt you into action to declare your love or do something extravagant for your lady, THEN MAYBE your relationship needs a check up huh? And i cannot for the life of me fathom why people think its more romantic, or some sort of a 'good luck' to get married on vday. Well UNLESS you think that celebrating your unique love for each other together with millions of people around the world doing and saying exactly the same things, and squashed in the SAME R.O.M, using the same expressways to get there is extra romantic. Nothing says I LOVE YOU more than having to rush through your vows so that the next couple can come in hoR. Lets see... i can so picture it.. ok ah-kow you on anot? ok. ah-huay you leh? ok. ONS Arh can go liao..outside to sign go go go.. NEXT! if you ask me, its just so its easier to remember anniversary LAH right *nudge* and GIRLS if you think about it, you get shortchanged because usually you'd get 1 diamond for your anniversary and a necklace for V day. Now that its lumped together, you'd probably only get either one. UNLESS your husband is the generous and automatic type but WHO ARE WE KIDDING!?! must i remind you we live in Singapore, where casually bringing up the possibility of going to apply for HDB is generally accepted as a decent proposal..*SCOFF*
O wells, personally i think the tacky lines really get me the MOST. seriously its unbelievable what some people actually say/write. Oh you complete me (damn you Jerry Mcguire!) Oh you are the piece of my heart i misplaced..Oh i find myself in you..erm honey if you cannot express your love to me in simple, sincere words then i suggest you find yourself in someone else KAY...and copying movie lines hor...*shakes head* that one MAJOR DEMERIT points. Whats worse you ask? quoting N'sync songs... *OUCH*

So i'm really an ol' fashioned, simplistic, realistic b*tch.. i ask for sincerity and spontaniety..and one last point.. THE TWO OF YOU! YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE...with evil ploys to set me up.. ditch those foul thoughts NOW.. anyway your other victim will never agree.. i dare bet on it..  ¶ 8:07 AM 0 comments

  beginning silly sequence in 5..4..3..2.. i realise i haven't been updating my blog for a long time.
its taking longer for the me to get 'inspired' enough to get off my lazy ass and write that next post.
i look back at the older enteries and realise something quite terrible.
i think i've become unfunny.
i really do.
an ol friend came up to me that day and said:
"you've changed. you're not as jolly, happening and crazy as before"
i realise i really am not.
i get so down easily.
get so worked up and demoralised.
get so serious. so affected. so touche.
what is wrong with me?
i need to laugh. i really need to laugh. i need to do silly things that don't make much sense except to make the people around me happy. i need to let go. is that what you're trying to teach me?
was it necessary that i fell so badly?
LET GO AND LET GOD. AMEN.  ¶ 8:45 AM 0 comments
