Je suis malade!

Hello night owls. The reason why I'm awake was due to being cold; cold to the bones. I'm feverish yet I'm cold. I cannot sleep when all I can feel is warmness enveloping me and occasionally I will shiver. Oh God, please cure me asap. Thank goodness I've no school tomorrow (or later). I actually have heaps to do pertaining to schoolwork.

Me being sick throughout the entire weekend made me nostalgic. Perhaps I should do a study on sick people and the kinds of things running through their minds. I thought about past happy events, particularly, I thought about Paris. Reminiscing the instrumental songs played along the streets, it calmed me down. And the coldness of the spring breeze, reminds me of how much I loved the weather (except the rainy days). And when you look up to the Eiffel, there she stood so elegantly filled with love. I remembered how my friends and I used to be at the Louvre 7-8 am in the morning to experience the morning breeze while absorbing the tranquility there. We fed ducks and I remembered feeling so light and happy. I cannot think of any other reasons why I wouldn't wanna go there again. I wish I was there now. Paris, Je T'aime.

And above all, falling sick functions as a pure reminder that we are human.
That we are flawed, and despite leading our own lives, God gives us lives, he has the right to take them away too.

There's always 1001 things to do

Now, I supposed most Singaporean bloggers will harp about the flood at Orchard Road. I shall skip that, although I'd like to add that I actually woke up this morning (11 am) feeling so good because the weather's nice. Little did I know for two hours there was a flood at Orchard Road and to think that such occurences are rarity. Ok I hope they would start doing something to the drainage system. Working at Media C. for 2 days was quite an experience, except that Aiman and I did nothing much on Sunday and we kind of did a million more things on Monday because we had ongoing tasks to do. Plus we've met exciting people and also, hmm, interesting people (of whom we secretly gave nicknames for us to refer to). I suddenly thought of The Devil Wears Prada and I actually wonder how the life of assistants are in this line of work, are they really treated like shit? Is that a part of climbing up the ladder in this career path? Ok random. The awesome thing is really to see how they swi...

Dumbledore

I know this is probably another random entry. But I'm excited for Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows movie and I suddenly thought about the day when I read through the final pages of Harry Potter & The Half Blood Prince. I must admit, I was actually mourning for the great Albus Dumbledore when he died (or got killed rather). Not the kind of mourning that goes on for days, just a momentary one. And I pictured in my mind, how everyone in Hogwarts were mourning for their beloved Headmaster and how solemn the environment must have felt to the extent that I actually thought that the bedroom where I was, in this tiny, little Singapore, felt equally dull and grey as well. It's impressive how characters come alive like that and reel me into the world of stories. I even had texted Revathi about how sad I felt when I was done with the book. Pardon for the melodrama, but it's the power of narration, and of course the brilliant writer herself, J.K Rowling. And certainly, the mo...
