seasons out of time
There is no remembrance of men of old,
and even those who are yet to come
will not be remembered
by those who follow.

tutors make all the difference. u get a nice one and u want to please him/her.. u get a horrible one and u can't be bothered.
that's not the main point.. at least not for today.
do u know what's the MOST DISGUSTING THING ON EARTH? it's picking ur nose.. and eating ur snot.
no actually.. that's not the most disgusting. the most disgusting is picking ur nose.. and eating ur snot.. IN PUBLIC.
that's just plain disgusting. no other word to describe it..

WHY PEOPLE IN LOVE ARE HAPPY
i've alwaes wondered why pple in love are so happy. the other night i was pondering abt it.. and came up with a possible reason.
they're giving to someone who wants to receive.. and receiving from someone they want to receive from.
it's all about giving n receiving. they're happy giving.. bcos what they give is being happily received. and they're happy receiving.. bcos it's given by someone they want to receive from.

played softball today. =>
Friday, May 07, 2004
on a lighter note.. we (malcolm, kash, stephanie and me) played foosball today.. after lunch.. just to waste half an hour b4 our next lecture. nothing but fun.
brought back memories.. of the last time i played foosball.. at charmain's hse. haaaiz. i miss those days.
oh and the glasgow softball association person i mailed abt 3 mths ago finally replied just now. she told me tt there's going to be a practice session this sunday. i think i might go.. tho i'm supposed to be studying.
if there's somebody calling me on
[my ou xiang]'s the one
my ou xiang's going to be the guest speaker at tonight's ball and i'm not going.
u wun understand how sad i am...
"novalia, are you good at it?"
"no."
"oh.. that's not very good is it? hmmm. who's your vs tutor? he's obviously not doing his job."
my ou xiang is hilarious!!!
and then..
"impress them during the real thing."
for that "impress them during the real thing".. i will work on it until i'm a pro.. even if it means getting a bruise on my finger..

i want to grow up to be like that.. to say such stuff and not sound fake..
if i weren't so homesick.. i would stay here for the rest of my life n be a gp.. and teach vs. just like my ou xiang. then i could see him everyday.. and be inspired everyday..
wednesday..
nothing hilariously funny today.. but many thought-provoking things..
"there are two things in my life, in my practice. one is trust."
("so what's the second thing?" "it's hope.")
"hope isn't about the future. hope is about the present. it's about here and now. here and now. it's about valuing people."
now.. isn't that just so so beautiful.
'nuff said.. that speaks for itself..

funny how regret comes when what might have been is placed b4 ur eyes..
funny how u can convince urself otherwise b4 u actually see it..
funny how u had a choice b4 but thought u didn't..
37 days to my exams.. and i haven't started studying. 37 days seem like a very long time doesn't it? 37 days can get me a couple rounds of revision for my A Levels. then why am i so stressed?? cos supposedly.. according to everyone else.. 37 days is a tight squeeze for 3 terms of work.
everyone else either revised once alreadi.. or halfway there. me? no one will believe me if i said i haven't started.
oh well.. i am starting tmr. i'll finish my pbl todae.. (right after i blog this..) and then i'll have tmr free.. so i'll revise 5 chapters tmr. how does tt sound? i think it sounds perfect.
