Apres une semaine..


Some weekends can just be.. that.
  • I love Wednesdays simply because of the lectures (cognitive and personality). Great lecturers we have. Personality's fun, can't believe the lecturer claimed himself not to be humourous when he could do unique extraordinary things that lighten up the atmosphere; like throwing his stuffed toy to the audience and whoever caught it had to answer questions (like filling in the blanks from his lecture notes) and randomly picking 5 names from the lecture group to do some personality ranking demonstration. We all freaked out, in a good way, lol.

  • Met up with bala, lina & aishah on Wednesday. Was awesome meet-up, it was like taking a walk back to the memory lane because we were talking about all the things that happened in secondary school! Crushes, how some of them really made us swoon (geez), who's with who, charming-looking teachers (Mr R & Mr S!), the bi-atches of the school, hilarious antics (of Mr G & Mrs K), how we always slacked off during Lit class, awesome council days, and the many high school drama (and pranks) you can imagine! Nothing can really beat secondary school adventures. Where days were just filled with all the innocent fun and the carefree days, oh how I miss.

  • I love that Chewy Juniors have $1/purchase discount exclusively for students! But aishah & I learnt that you can never look pretty when you eat Chewy Juniors. One big bite and next thing you know you have cream all over your mouth.

  • Mdm Francesca has been pretty cool lately. Not only does she let us off ON TIME on most days (which she never did last semester), she lends her french DVDs to the french 4 cohort, which is just so awesome!

  • Nuurun & I were so high on Friday night, we don't even need alcohol for that. Like moving to the beat of Mediterranean songs, laughing at Amey's Einstein-inspired hairdo (lol) and chillin' out with them + adit & aalok. Chillax session to the maxxx.

  • I've never come across really cool, good group page in Facebook until recently. It's called 'Overheard at NUS', really awesome group where students share interesting/bimbotic/funny quotes and shenanigans in lectures and around campus (especially in toilets with people talking so loudly to be overheard). And bulk of them contain quotations by lecturers, interesting :) Some excerpts:

    Back when I was in first year in uni, I took Chinese Level 1. Our composition test was coming up and I emailed the teacher asking if the characters from lessons one to four will be tested. She replied (and I quote): Dear If you enjoiy to write a good Comp so characters very impotent too. Lao shi

    Lecturer shared this during a journalism class. her editor told her this when she was still a junior reporter: "Don't ever assume. because that will make and ASS out of U and ME.

    A certain LS lecuturer: (Referring to the use of anabolic steroids) "Women develop more manly characteristics when they over-use steriods. (points to picture) Smaller breasts, more muscular. This woman is not my type. Even viagra also cannot help me." *pause* "I am still strong ah."

    2 students walking around AS2 looking frantic, guy comes over
    guy: hello do u know where is the biolab???
    me: there's no biolab here.. this is arts..
    guy: *shows me paper* it says it's at S2 what!
    me: ya but this is AS2........
    guy walks away and tells his girl friend "i feel damn dumb now"


  • Met up with dearest qeen for catch-up at Lot One. We made sure the whole k-pop craze has gone, at least, after Shinee has left. The last thing we want on top of the Sunday crowd at Lot One is a mob. One of the randomest things we talked about today is James Marsden in Enchanted, LOL.

  • I love how the moon appear to be so close to us nowadays. So bright and huge :) I love looking at the nightsky, the moon and the stars. Reminds me of how tiny I am right here.

Anything but ordinary

Sometimes I get so weird I even freak myself out I laugh myself to sleep it's my lullaby Sometimes I drive so fast Just to feel the danger I want to scream it makes me feel alive To walk within the lines Would make my life so boring I want to know that I have been to the extreme So knock me off my feet Come on now, give it to me Anything to make me feel alive Is it enough to love? Is it enough to breathe? Somebody rip my heart out And leave me here to bleed Is it enough to die? Somebody save my life I'd rather be anything but ordinary please I'd rather be anything but ordinary please Let down your defenses Use no common sense If you look, you will see That this world is a beautiful, accident Turbulent, succulent, opulent Permanent, no way I wanna taste it Don't wanna waste it away yeah, yeah Sometimes I get so weird I even freak myself out I laugh myself to sleep it's my lullaby I'd rather be anything but ordinary please

Encounters

Oh who am I kidding? I wrote a post previously on the importance of mobility. But going further than that, it is the social encounters that make up the foundation of human experience living under this same canopy we call earth and sharing this home alongside others. To the first moment babies acquaint themselves with the world, having the first touch, hearing the sounds of a laughter, whimper, sigh, silent smile, and modelling on the external world to distinguish safety from danger, right from wrong, norms from exceptions. It is the everyday social experiences of walking out on the streets and seeing people doing their own thing - the mother reprimanding the child, the young man awkwardly fishing his pockets at the entrance of the bus, a fragile old woman taking her time to walk up the stairs, the sound of aggressive haggling at the market. And then there are those two close friends insisting they each want to pay the bill for the other, a group of boisterous teenagers disrupting your ...
