dunno why but the cny spirit is getting into me. especially so when i've been going to chinatown more often then ever. i see people selling ox decorations already. i really felt like getting some and hanging in my room. lol. i insist on celebrating cny!!! this song is out to irritate my room mates. haha.

sidenotes: if you often visit people's park complex and you'll notice that there is this particular money charger that always have a long queue. i'm always puzzled to why the queue is especially long... the money changer gives extra money is it? now i managed to unravel the mystery! hx and i needed to change money so we just joined in the queue for the fun of it. (personally i don't like the idea of queueing) kaypo me ask the auntie behind to why the queue of this particular money changer being so long. now i got the answer! haha!

e-mailed over to tu/e to check about the status of my visa application. about less than a month before i'm going over. then i got this out of office reply.

"Tu/e will be closed from 24th December till 5 January.Merry Christmans and a Happy New Year!"

12 days of holiday?! wth..bunch of slackers. now i understand why my term dragged so long, coz there're seriously lots of holidays in between..

i used to think that the flyer was an eye sore in the city. but now that is not operating and the lights are off, it's worst! at least switch on the lights when it's not working lah.. sidenotes: i've been feasting like hell this month. i really had enough of buffets and steamboats. it's not helping when i'm having supper nearly every night. it's high time for me to cut down on my eating habits so i can loosen up my clothes. i need to fit myself into my clothes when i get over to holland!

i cant believe that it's only a few more days to a new year. and i recalled some random stuff. seems like the last few month of the year always sucked.

Starry, starry night.
Paint your palette blue and grey,
Look out on a summer's day,
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul.
Shadows on the hills,
Sketch the trees and the daffodils,
Catch the breeze and the winter chills,
In colors on the snowy linen land.

Now I understand what you tried to say to me,
How you suffered for your sanity,
How you tried to set them free.
They would not listen, they did not know how.
Perhaps they'll listen now.

Starry, starry night.
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze,
Swirling clouds in violet haze,
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue.
Colors changing hue, morning field of amber grain,
Weathered faces lined in pain,
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand.

Now I understand what you tried to say to me,
How you suffered for your sanity,
How you tried to set them free.
They would not listen, they did not know how.
Perhaps they'll listen now.

For they could not love you,
But still your love was true.
And when no hope was left in sight
On that starry, starry night,
You took your life, as lovers often do.
But I could have told you, Vincent,
This world was never meant for one
As beautiful as you.

Starry, starry night.
Portraits hung in empty halls,
Frameless head on nameless walls,
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget.
Like the strangers that you've met,
The ragged men in the ragged clothes,
The silver thorn of bloody rose,
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow.

Now I think I know what you tried to say to me,
How you suffered for your sanity,
How you tried to set them free.
They would not listen, they're not listening still.
Perhaps they never will...

day by day i start to realise that alot of things are not beyond our control and that's quite sad..

sometimes i wonder whether there's such a thing as 命中注定...

was surfing my friend's blog..then heard this song. brings back fond memories. i dont understand why i like this show so much. it's quite dumb but yet so true. the lyrics is really meaningful..

一张双人床 两个人的剧场
快乐和感伤 同一时间亮相
他不够浪漫 她又太多幻想
当恨起对方 所有的好全都遗忘

相爱的双方 向海洋和沙滩
不能完全占有 却更离不开对方
他渴望温柔 她需要宽厚肩膀
虽然有时想得太理所当然

幸福并不只有单一的答案
争吵可能是其中必备的一项
爱如潮汐涨落中 惊喜不断
关键在你怎么去欣赏

别让双人床中间隔着孤单
多想想换成对方有什么期盼
没有人天生就对爱情 擅长
幸福双人床 两个人才温暖

i wanna curse and swear! the dumb dumb school lost my bank statement. argh! bank statements are NOT CHEAP u know! and i have to mail it myself..express mail is freaking exs too! dont tell me i cant enter in your country k!

i think i subconsciously and unknowingly fall in love with city sky scrappers. getting off raffles place, walking through the high rise buildings, looking afar at the esplanade, Singapore flyer..sometimes I'll take a different route and walk pass raffles quay, down towards one Fullerton. i now declare uob building and one raffles quay as one of my fave sky scrappers in sg. this is weird..
i thought i loved the nature. waterfall, forest, caves, mountains, valleys and even the deep blue sea...
i guess i just love big stuff..like airbus a380. ha!

side talks: walked from esplanade down to One Fullerton, heard this song at the outdoor theatre. heh..such coincidence, the acapella choir was singing to my fave xmas song. i havent grown up. another thing to take note is that i got to realised that bert's eyebrows are joined together! i still love the bert and ernie version of this song. they're like..so simply happy.

i realised that i'm much a neighbourhood person. afterall, i live in a neighbourhood district, studied in a neighbourhood pri, sec and jc. i wonder whether is this something good or bad?
i really envy those who get to dine in high class restaurant, whereby they drink wine like though wine is water. those who can just flash out their card without hesitating.. those who lived in big spacious houses. dance to jazzy music in the ball room. enjoy valet services when they drive their flashy, luxurious cars..
then again, i get to see people who mix with gangsters. smoke, heavily tatoo-ed and have parents who are either bookie or runners. their parents are even involved in racing..seriously, racing in singapore whereby they drive up to a speed of 260kmh.
my life is so confusing...i mix with all sorts of people that i get culture shocked everyday.
ps: i know whatever i've written is so incoherent, but it's like 3am now...zzz

sad. why do people say that i look like a smoker? seriously... i hate those glowing sticks lah. is it my hair or my face that relates me to smoking? i feel like dying my hair. the colour is fading off.

just when i wanna start my exercising....
i got quite sick.. bah!
i wasted far too much tissue paper..
my back hurts really bad and i have no idea why did it happened!
hope that i'll be able to recover really quick. else i cant get to work.

幸福如履薄冰。。

i'm slack. really. i'm left with 1 day to study for manufacturing. just when i thought everyone was in the same situation as me..then i realised that i was WRONG! there're people out there who read the book through infinite times. seriously, think i'm going to take up the lower percentile of the bell curve...those who are going to get A for that module please thank me. (you can compensate by donating to my sep fund) i shant assume that people will be as slack as me anymore...

sidenotes: my phone hasnt been ringing for quite awhile. as in, receiving voice calls. i have lots of smses but i miss hearing voices through the phone. i enjoy chatting on the phone. beats sms! coz i cant express myself in words for nuts! i express through pitch and tone. those of you who are having sleepness nights or have nothing better to do, do give me a ring! we can bitch things out..i'm good at chatting about anything. it's in my dna! dont forget that taxi drivers are freaking good crappers. a taxi driver's daughter is darn good at crapping.

after that lousy paper..i'm totally demoralized. no motivation to study for the next few paper..boo to myself! reading through the papers and usually i'll skip the horoscope section. dont know what came into my mind and i actually went to read it. here's what it says, " you're pretty confused about someone's behaviour, but that does not mean that you cannot get along with him just fine. Do not bother trying to figure him out now, though- save it for later" okay..i shall heed this advice for once.

i'm going to list down some stuff that i'll intend to do after my exams..and the list will go on and on and on and on and on and on...
1)pack my files and books
2)iron my clothes
3)find cheer chen's album (i'm more motivated to find it after listening to her song played on radio today)
4)practise cheer chen's song on my dusty guitar
5)exercise (i didnt exercise during this sems, so unhealthy!)
6)visit marina barrage

p/s: i'm currently craving for lana cake..can someone help me order it? i can eat the whole cake myself. really...
