Yoohoo!

Short updates:
  • Final final French grammar test is tomorrow afternoon
  • My FIRST final paper (personality) is in TEN days' time! SHIT.
  • For some weird reason, I feel sleepy as early as 10:30 pm for these past two days. Crap.
  • My crazy friends think that there ought to have tudung pyjamas for those who don them (this made me LMAO X 10000000000).
  • Bittersweet experience for french oral exam, lol.
  • I, amongst the sea of people who had, haven't watched How to Train a Dragon. Me, together with possibly two other people (katty and wenxiang) HAHA. So pathetic please. Is it really THAT good? Daym looks like I'd be missing a good show since gotta study (sucks!)
  • I got the position NOC Assistant (French) for the Youth Olympics event! So eggciting! Ok so this means my August would be filled.
  • But ... no news for internship yet. People reply at tortoise-like speed really. Even though I did receive prompt replies, those aren't acceptance letters. Jeez. If all else fail, I'll find a part-time job!
  • Oh and finally I have this current dilemma, there's this application for local exchange (so that means NTU and SMU for me), should I go? I don't even know if I'd be going overseas exchange boohoo. This is because I'm stuck at this position where I don't even know if I should proceed to honours years with my current CAP. So in order for me to do exchange overseas in Year 3 Sem 2, I MUST do honours. And I don't want to be doing honours if my CAP is the minimum. And then there's this local exchange for next semester. Should I should I? Maybe to SMU?

Till then, so long! Have a good week everyone!

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 ...
