aftermath

I thought F Path was bad. Me saying that PUO was much worse, is an understatement. It was horrible. The only thing that made this thing bearable was the "afterparty". I will post the pics soon. I am dog tired.
What F Path really means: F- Freaktarded or the other F word P- Pain inducing A- Agonizing T- Torture H- Hypertensive disorder This subject is utterly ridicoulous! There are 3 topic but what...18 sub topics! I am going bonkers! I'm almost done studying... I just have 5 more subtopics to go! Gulp! I haven't even started studying for Wednesdays' Exam yet!

Distracted

I am so freakishly distracted and I need to come back down to earth and focus. It's been quite hard to fo cus lately especially since: 1. My cousin has been sleeping in my room resulting in my losing sleep. As you know sleep is crucial, since I do most of my studying at night, Its just harder to concentrate. (I loose sleep not because she's noisy or anything, its just that, I've been sleeping in my own room, alone for 15 years and I am just used to having my room to myself) 2. The Olimpics have been on for days... thank goodness its over. 3. There is a lot of food in the house because we recently had a visitor (also the reason for #1)

Exams

As you can probably tell, I've changed my blog skin. I've been working on it for a while and I must say that I can't imagine making a blog skin from scratch...all those codes!! Maddening. This is all keeping in the theme of new beginnings. New semester, new classes and new subjects thank god! . Even though one of those subjects, Pharmaceutical Microbiology, does involve donning a marshmallow/space suit that as Carissa said looked "haha" on me, me thinks that I'm ready for a change. I am pretty jived about the new semester simply because I'm sick and tired of this current sem. I can't wait to graduate. Slowly but surely I'm getting rid of this semester's subjects and Yay! We only have two more to go! Translation: four more sleep deprived days. 5 more days till the holidays! I can't wait!

Pick me up movies

It's been a really hectic week, tying up loose ends, finishing reports and trying to absorb as much knowledge as we can before study week starts. I can't believe the holidays are almost here! There's a term test on Monday and The Exams start on Friday! I can bot believe how fast this term has gone by. I feel as if I barely even know my classmates and that I haven't learned much. It's really strange that term 2.2 is starting! There will be that long and much anticipated break of doing nothing but lazing around! Yay! It's a pity though, that I won't get to go back to the Philippines. Anyways, I just watched 2 movies, "Wall-E" and "Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging" and they are really my type of movies. Sure, they don't really make you think, but they're light-hearted and fun. Not the kind of heavily emotional stuff, in other words, a perfect pick me up! Sure, emo movies are pretty nice sometimes but well, right now, since I'm

Celebrate! :D

Yesterday... or, well, its still going on actually, a celebration of China's milestones was held to greet the Olympians. It was amazing and the Chinese have a right to be happy. I believe that making Bejing the home of the 2008 Olympics accelerated China's growth even more. It really is amazing to see the giant beast of a country finally open its doors to the rest of the world. Today, is Singapore's international day. Whoo! I really believe that there is much cause for celebration. We all need our little perks once in a while and a party does just that. Its a pity few people I know actually take the time to celebrate their Singaporean-ness. Sure, I'm not Singaporean but I think that a country should scream and shout their lungs out to remember its past and look to the future. Maybe if they did that more often, they would be so much more appreciative and less complacent. My parents also celebrated this evening. The reason...they made new friends in church since they join

he dies

This is a speech made by Mr Edward Magorium from Mr Magorium's Wonder Emporium~ a film written and directed by Zach Helm, what most would consider a movie for a children. "When King Leer dies in act five, do you know what Shakespeare has written? He's written, 'he dies'. That's all, nothing more, no fanfare, no metaphor, no brilliant final word. The culmination of the most influential work of dramatic literature is 'he dies'. It takes Shakespeare changes to come up with 'he dies', and yet every time I read those two words, I find myself overwhelmed with disphorea... and I know its only natural to be sad, but not because of the words "he dies" but because of the life we saw prior to the words. I've lived all five of my acts Mahoney and I'm not asking you to be happy that I must go, I'm only asking that you turn the page, continue reading, and let the next story begin. And if anyone should ask what became of me, you relate m
