Innocence is brilliant



I love this Canon ad! Perhaps it's because of the song which I like. I love her second album Under My Skin (and yes I'm biased because my camera is Canon).

I think Orchard Road seriously needs lighting. Have you seen it after they took down the Christmas lights? The whole street just look plain and dead. Maybe I was there pretty late and it was a weekday (plus Monday, first day of school). But I think it could do better with some lights, I really love the Christmas lights! Feels like some fairy tale setting but guess not, with the crowd and everything (= distorted fairytale). But at least we'll have our own Champs-Elysees in Orchard with the lightings though.

Can you believe that I've never taken up the 11-storey escalators at Orchard Central before? And what's worse, I cannot believe I was a bit scared when we got higher, like sheesh! It was 11 pm, and I dragged aishah to do this with me while the roads were empty. But it was nice! We went all the way up till the garden rooftop. There were restaurants up there. But the garden was so miniature, they should really expand it or something! And yes on this unfortunate day, I lost my ez-link card and my matric card, only to retrieve it back the day after. Was so happy, thank God some aunty was smart enough to call up the school. You know, the loss of ez-link card (with student bus concession) can deprive you quite a deal.

So what have I been doing so far? Let's see. All I can remember was going out almost every single day. And if I wasn't going out, all I do at home is napping, naping and more napping. Ok on the plus side, I will not be able to do this when school starts next Monday. Currently reading Angus, Thongs & Perfect Snogging. Jeez, I should start with the intellectual books. Need to start reading Chetan's books bought from India, Tipping Point, Blink, Middlesex, Wednesdays Letters, A Hundred Years of Solitude and many more. Rewatching You're Beautiful, completed Coffee Prince and still in love with Lee Min Ho. Jeez. I cannot believe the recent meet-up with his fans costed a lot for them, and this was when I was still in India! Need to start revising French unless I wanna be one of the laggy ones in class. Need to earn money from tuition once again. And also, I need to really run! Am waiting to get through 2 more bidding of modules!

Back to basics

Once again the heavy downpour. Certainly the rhythmic sound of the rain, slapping against the floor, against the windows, have conjured images in our heads of the pleasant idea of sleeping, or reading with hot cocoa (but of course this wouldn't be possible due to fasting), or just snuggling up in bed. How nice. But here I am almost dressed and ready for school. I don't know why, but it has been quite some time since I felt like I've been in school, like proper school. Perhaps it's the three days mc I've got. But now, I feel like I'm energized despite fasting, all set and ready for school. The scent of cooking porridge and spaghetti made me all excited to get through 2 lectures, one meeting and a bus ride home back welcomed by the sumptuous breaking fast meal although I'd only be back by eight-ish. Today shall be the first in a long time I'd make an appearance in French class. It's been more than a week. Wish me luck that my temperature won't rise...

Coincidence helps you in some way

There's this guy who happens to be in the same stats and developmental psych tutorial as me, and we knew each other through those classes. So after our class yesterday, we happened to board the same bus, happened to go to the same place, and happened to need to deposit money as well. I brought half of my wad of notes from money I collected from Hari Raya and the money I received from tuition too. Anyway, thankfully for the guy, he told me that the machine does not accept 5-dollar, and 2-dollar notes and MAJORITY of the thick wad of notes I brought were. Can you imagine how stupid I would look if I were to put the whole wad of notes there and they would all be rejected? And I had FORGOTTEN about it, so dumb please. You know, families should give you $10 notes instead of $2s (HAHA). So geez, I only managed to bank in abit only. After everything, the guy had to go for his taekwondo classes and I'm meeting Qeen, AND after spoken about exams, exchange programmes, past schools, bad ...
