Bah, Bah and Bah

The first entry of the year and I have nothing good to say at all.. *bah*

First of all, all the deadlines in school are driving me barmy.. it doesn't help that I'm the unsurpassable procrastinator and that I cannot seem to work on anything at all, especially my MEP editing.. I H-A-T-E school to the innermost core. *bah*

I've been so bogged down by school that I couldn't even photoshop Biyi's wedding photos (mind you her wedding was on the 8th of this month). I can't wait for the hols to come again.. at least working at IPSA doesn't require much brain mileage. *bah*

I detest you

2005-12-17T01:29:00.000+08:00

Know what I don't understand? How thoughts of you invade my life with no mercy even till this very day.

I detest you. And just when I thought all that resentment was gone, it came seeping back in evil bits the minute I caught that glimpse of you.

I hate the way you manage to pry yourself into my life without even knowing it and I hate you for taking away what was once most precious to me.

I hated the way you told the world you felt sorry for doing all you did but continued posting those sickening pictures on your blog. Good for you if public sympathy takes you places.

I hate the way you get everything without even trying cuz you are just one little miss perfect who can do no wrong. I hate the way you always make me appear like a loser. I hate the way your pics still exist and I hate you for never ever ever being able to feel what you have done to me and i will do anything just to let you go through what I did, even if it's just for a day.

I hate the way you appeared so happy while I clenched my guts in a bid to protect whatever dignity I had left.

YOU ARE THE VERY BANE OF MY EXISTENCE.

When In UIRT Class...

2005-12-14T09:17:00.000+08:00

...simply snooze away cuz whatever the lecturer says simply doesn't make sense. Aside from her very rusty English and annoyingly nasal voice, she is perpetually in this diagonally striped black and white top (thin stripes mind you) which nv fails to gimme a headache. It doesn't help now that she is walking to and fro in front of me staring at me suspiciously while I am silently blogging, minding my own business..

I am so screwed for my UIRT test this Saturday, I haven even started to study and all that's on my mind is McDonald's hotcakes... with sausage of course.... *drools over keyboard*

This Christmas....

2005-12-11T23:15:00.000+08:00

... will just be like the past few Christmases, boring. It's amazing how what used to be one of my favourite festivals can morph into one of those that I hate most now.. The magic of Xmas seems to fade off with every passing year. What happened to the smell of Christmas in the air, the adrenaline rush from Christmas shopping and the joy of spending the season with loved ones?

Each Christmas:
- I receive at least two boxes of recycled Christmas chocolates from my mum's friends
- I spend it with a rapidly diminishing number of true friends and loved ones
- I am too broke to do some intensive shopping which results in a handful of important people getting left outta my Christmas list
- I never get to eat turkey
- Santa never comes
- the decor on the streets of Orchard just gets uglier
- I usually end up getting dead drunk

I miss the younger times when my grandma and aunties would conspire and leave small presents in the stocking that I stupidly hung in the kitchen (I used to think Santa could come in by no other way but the washing machine). I miss the feeling of waking up at 6 am in the morning to open the presents under the tree (even though I had earlier carefully unwrapped all the presents for a sneak preview).

*********************

Somebody sprinkle some Christmas dust on me...

2005-12-11T14:53:00.000+08:00

I just realised that I live in the past.

But that's cuz most of my life belongs there.

And no one will help me find the missing pieces.

Spell F-R-E-E-D-O-M

Now before I forget, CONGRATS JOLENE FOR FINALLY PRYING YOURSELF AWAY FROM THAT HELLHOLE OF A JOB!!!!!!!!!!!

I am sooo happy for you but you would've been able to spare yourself from all that agony for the past few months if you'd listened to me earlier. BAH!~ So that you are officially jobless, we can:

1. Meet in the afternoons for those long overdue coffee sessions
2. Meet anytime we want for those overdue coffee sessions
3. Help you set up your "Chubby Hubby" wannabe blog
4. Go bracelet shopping (so I can stop you from ever spending 60 big bucks on a dumb bracelet again)
5. Go mambo!!!!!!!

I love it when my friends are jobless.. =)

2005-12-06T05:51:00.000+08:00

I thought all possible ridges had long been digested.

Could I have thought wrong?

Congrats Benny on getting your licence.. again! (Access to the new car somemore, BAH!) At the same time I earned myself a chauffuer! Now be careful this time round and don't ever ever lose your precious licence again. From what I've seen these 2 years, it's been a long and painful wait for you. I guess it's time for the prata trip to fong seng that you owe me!!

The Cramp In My Fingers

2005-12-04T22:57:00.000+08:00

In an attempt to make a quick buck, Benny (I kinda tricked him into going), Hweech and myself took on an assignment at an events company. We thought we were supposed to pack t-shirts into goodie bags but.. oh well, things din exactly go as planned..

We started out making little trinklets for the staff there to attach to their gift boxes. Wad appeared to be seemingly easy caused my fingers to cramp up! I had to attach ribbons and beads together with ugly gold wires while Benny and Hweech happily cut up the shitloads of assorted ribbons and strings of beads (cuz they didn't have fingers small enough to attach the materials together).

After which, Hweech and I proceeded to cut up even more ribbons (while dancing to mambo songs on Class 95) while Ben downloaded songs into 40-over ipod shuffles. This went on til 1 am til Jon came and saved our hungry asses with supper. I shan't reveal how much we got for all that work but it was overall - cheap labour! But I stress again, dun feel bad Jon, we were all willing parties ya? =)

Since I spent the entire weekend eating and happily snoozing away without a care in the world, I shall REALLY proceed to deal with my no-brainer UIRT assignment and not resort to last minute slip shot reports.

Oh and 1 more important thing!! Tonnes and tonnes of good luck for your test tmr Darling! Go down there and knock them dead.. Let me know the results as soon as you get 'em ya? *Big warm toasty hug*

Number One....

2005-11-30T20:10:00.000+08:00

I finally decided that I've had it with my blog settings and that I should really stop fooling around with the template. I should be mugging for school instead!! I resolve to finish my CDS assignment by tonight if I find out that there are no good shows on tv later on... after all, my DVD player is on the blink and I can't watch "Honey" for like the thousandth time anyway (BUMMER)..

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

HAPPY BIRTHDAY in advance Dyan, my good ol' smelly-eyed friend!

No more using of peoples' ICs to squirm your way into Zouk.. That calls for a great big bashy washy celebration at Mambo next Wednesday don't u think? =)

And don't think I have forgotten my sweet message, my dear drama-papa Jon!

I'm thankful I have you to pass this semester together with. You've been a wonderful source of motivation and you never fail to make me crack up. Thank you for your constant listening ear and those discounted prata sessions. I don't know what I'll possibly do without you around. We're more than just peoples! We're very very good peoples!! *snaps fingers*
