today is a special day.. 29th feb, a date to be seen every 4 yrs.. had my second paper just now at 7pm.. what a way to spend this day.. study in the morn, study in the afternoon, working on exam at night.. dun worry, i'm not talking abt my paper.. in case u r wondering what i'm going to type on.. haha..
anyway, my dad fetch me home after exam, heard from the radio station that today there's a higher percentage of couples engaging at ROM as compared to 29th feb 2004.. i made a comment by saying something like, 'what a day to engage, then the anniversary will be celebrating once every 4 years? haha'. 'no la, still will continue to celebrate every year de la' 'then wont be like very pity meh? 4 yrs then can have an actual celebration. haha.' then, he asked mi whether i know about the history of leap year. before i can reply him, he explained the reason behind it to me.. 'cos due to the earth revolving ard the sun, every year there's extra 5hrs 4Xmins XX secs, then by the time it accumulates to the 4th year, it's approximately equals to 1 additional day, so we get 366 days in the 4th year.'
i was amazed when he mentioned the timing 5hrs 4Xmins XX secs! cos he remembered the exact timing! i put 'XX' cos i had already forgotten le! oh gosh.. anyway, applaused for my dad and his memory! wonder if i still have good memory if i ever lived till his age.. lol.. (btw, my dad's eye sight is superb sia, no 近视, no 散光, no 老花! whatever eye related problem is none of his business.. hoho..)
[note: above conversation is carried out in chinese(of cos!); posted is a brief one, not typing out word for word cos i had short term memory you see.. lol]
haiz.. jus had my first prelim paper so disastrous! although is kinda serve-me-right for choosing topics to study (cos not enough time), i think even if i studied all, i'm still unable to do it well! so sucky.. damn depressed now.. how to do well in the actual exam? how to get the honours i wanted to? haiz..
this girl is getting depressed again.. thinking too much again..
so mad at myself too.. choose topic to study also dunno how to choose appropriately.. those studied didnt come out much (or i din realise? =0 ) and were not 100% prepared.. those i didnt study, came out in most of the qns.. i got debated with myself whether to study 2 of those i didnt, but i gave up cos there's alot formulas to memorise for one and there's a need for time to understand for the other.. zzz.. so ended up, i can only do 1 and 1/2 qns out of 4... and they were not a confident try... disaster!!
好烦啊! 这女人怎么这样啊! 想怎么多干嘛啦!
argh.. i feel liketearing away my face.. huge outbreak at this period.. so ugly lo.. put alot foundation when went out for exam just now.. arghhh.. dont want go out le la.. might as well hibernate! =~(
zzz... at this time still care about ur face.. zzz.. correct prioritisation needed!
see this pic? right now, i feel like i AM the boat in the midst of the BIG sea.. so helpless.. so aimless.. the gentle and sometimes rough currents will do the job in bringing me to an unknown destination.. haiz.. can someone wake up the owner of the boat so that he/she can direct me to the right destination?
btw, this photo was taken by this gal from a cable car in HK.. ..
angel-me: go blash ur music ba.. and scream with the singer!!
it's once again the prelims period. it had started earlier this year, and thus i've no much time to prepare myself for the exams. most probably i'll be going to take the question papers n answer the questions briefly. hopefully i can write out enough pages for the school to send it over to UK for markings. anyway, this will be my last time having the prelims in sch. haha..
~~~~~
this post is supposed to be a random post. i'd already concluded in the past that whenever i am being busy, there will be many thoughts and to-dos swimming into my minds.. zzz.. why like tat? some more currently i am a poor little girl. sob sob. why i am so broke ler? cos just paid for my school workshops fee and recently i have been studying outside which means there's a need to spend for food and drinks. and i have not returned my brother the money for the pedicure instalments incurred last month and my friend for the mayday concert tix. and also not forgetting, i am saving up for my holiday trip! shucks.
-----------------------------------
i suddenly feel like cutting my hair (note: not trim, is cut!). i have the urge to get a short hairstyle. haha. plus that time saw princess nana with her new hairstyle, the urge grew. but at the same time, i scare i couldnt get the short hairstyle that i want. cos my hair condition is not suitable for such length and i had ugly short hairstyle in the past. got phobia you know? lol.. and then again, if i want to get a nice suitable cut, it will mean that i need to visit a salon and get one of those hair stylists to give mi a nice cut. i need to be prepared for a bigger hole in my pocket wor.
-----------------------------------
i wanted to watch sweedney todd! but no more chance le! the showtimes are limited and currently i am having my prelims. sianzz. there are other movies which i wanted to watch too, like L changed the world. initially wanted to watch CJ7, but either i cant make it or everyone else had watched it. zzz.
-----------------------------------
my permanent contact lens have been with me for more than 2 years (or is it 3? lol). i wanted to make a new pair but i am always lazy. lol. another reason is i don't know where should i make it at. hmmmm. then yesterday i suddenly got the urge to go down to any optical shops to make my lens. zzz (at this time??). i need to get it done asap cos there will be interviews and networking sessions soon. got to be presentable if not no one wants to hire me. lol. then, i will need to find rich guys to marry.. wahahaha
------------------------------------
mum is nagging at me to find bf again! saying this year is a good opportunity for ox babies to find a partner. alamak. not i don't want to find ler, sometimes must see fate de ma. 缘分是可欲不可求,该来的时候它自然就会来. lol. anyway, i also feel quite puzzled why i don't have one, i'm not setting high standards ler. haha. maybe i am too quiet and not interactive enough? hmmmm. but these are my personalities ler, they are quite hard to change one you know? muahahaha...
------------------------------------
my 2 cousins are getting married in march and april respectively! oh no! time really flies, now it is cousins' time (age group: late 20s early 30s) to get married. and soon, it will be my brother's time! oh no! so scary. it seems like we are getting older at a faster rate once we hit a certain age. haha. and i already have a few nieces and nephews. no wonder my mum is nagging at me. lol. anyway, the point here is, what should i wear for the 2 upcoming dinners? lol. haiz, cant wear the one i bought recently for another cousin's wedding, got to spend money on dresses cos the 3 cousins are from my mum's side, which mean i'm unable to wear the same dress to these 2 dinners. unless i am able to get a dress which can mix and match to give 2 different style. lol. (NB: last year attended 2 cousin's wedding, this year there are 2 dinners tentatively.. hmmm, who's next?)
------------------------------------
aiya.. so sian.. dun feel like studying for the prelims.. feel so insecured for the exams.. temptations are all over.. zzz.. but another side of me wanted to study for the prelims, well at least can see how i fair with 'anyhow, not in-depth' studies.. haha.. got to go back digesting the notes le... haiz.. cya~
i love this song! not only because it was composed and written by ashin, it's also because it was sang beautifully by Aska Yang! it has a simple title yet meaningful lyrics and the melody is catchy too. hee. and i find that a few lines of the lyrics are close to what i feel sometimes..
here's the version of the original composer.. it's a different style totally and he sounded quite nice.. what i can conclude is that this is really a song specially designed for aska only.. lol.. cos the pitch/note is either too high or too low for him.. haha..
i need to squeeze out some of my memory space for the below incidents. (in order of occurence)
=no. 1= bought ashin's second book「浪漫的逃亡」(Escape to Japan) on the first day of sales! lol. was in school on that day and i had a long break in between lessons, so might as well go to buy it. wahaha. personally i think is a book worth investing. the quality of paper is good, the quantity of the pages is worth the price, the details of the book (photos+writings) are meaningful and pretty.
=no. 2= over the chinese new year, i had enjoyed myself very much. went to relatives and friends' houses to eat, play and collect hongbaos~ yeah! especially on the weekends where we played many games using poker cards.. haha.. and i really need to conclude that i am really not suitable to gamble. cos whenever i gamble with money or other things that replace the money, i will have no chance to win at all. lol. without the presence of money, i still can win some games. haha. good thing right? lol.
=no. 3= bought mayday concert tickets on the first day of sales! need to act fast if need to get good seats. hee. oh my god. i am so excited now~ hahaha. i am so looking forward to their first-in-singapore-stage design, the blue sea of lightsticks (hopefully those going to the concert got the notice of bringing blue lightsticks. hee. help spread this message~) and 很会忘词的主唱大人crazy-ing and high-ing with his bandmates and the audience. lol. woohoo~~
~Mayday ashin Mayday ashin Mayday~
k. too exicited liao. need to calm down abit.
=no. 4= yeah~ my lessons are ending soon. though this is a short term happiness (since no more lessons will mean exams are soon to be here), i still feel that it can be listed down as one of my happy things. cos, it will mean that there will be no more stressful lessons and dozing-off-lessons. lol. and this will be the last time to have this feeling. (unless i go for further studies. haha)
=no. 5= i felt that i am being happier than in the past. i had successfully made myself to be happier! haha. or is it because of the recent things that happened made me happy? (*slap forehead* don't think in this way!) it is good to feel wonderful. it's as if everything is so right (though in reality it isn't) lol. and you yourself will feel different too. from now on, i need to continue to think positively and try not to 钻牛角尖 that frequently. ^-^ (ps: anyone know the correct english phrase for 钻牛角尖? need to learn more english. haha.)
so excited.. i'm looking forward to ashin's new book!! 「浪漫的逃亡」 (Escape to Japan) a book which is about touring in japan.. not the usual tour type (ie eat n shop).. he spent 2+ years on it as he is always busy.. haha.. and therefore he can only spend time on it during late nights.. it is a 'magazine' type of book, with lots of photos taken by himself.. other than the photos, there are drawings/sketchings and beautiful words..
so happy that the book is launching in kino bookstore on the same day as in taiwan *beam* gonna buy it asap cos there's limited freebie.. lol..
oh, i had finally figured out how to change my background colour to black instead. cos it is more environmental friendly.. haha.. need to save the earth.. lol...
but how come black is more environmental friendly ler? read somewhere some time ago that a black screen require lesser 'bulbs' (forgot the acutal name, cos i think is a computer language or what de) inside the screen to be lighted up, thus saving more electricity.. haha.. so ever since i read that information, i will try to have my wallpaper to be in darker colours or with black background.. haha..
PS: the above stated is a very rough idea, cos i couldnt remember the exact information read before, so may require to do research to understand more..
CNY is coming real soon.. less than a weeks' time. but then, i still can't feel it coming. even though there are chinese new year decorations and songs are played everywhere, but somehow the atmosphere is still not right.
anyway, cny means need to spring clean. i had tidied my table but it seems to be in the same condition as before even though i had threw some papers away and removed 2 files to be stored in cupboard. y like that ah? zzz.. other than that, i had helped to tidy the shoes rack too. my wardrobe will be the next to tidy. hopefully there will be a significant amount to be thrown or given away. lastly, i will be cleaning my windows.
i had already skipped tidying my other cupboards, cos there isnt much time to do. (all because of the tonnes of hw previously! lol.. push the blame to the lecturer) i still need to buy a few items for cny too. oh no, will i have enough time to do all these?
