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.

I didn't know, one tender touch, Was all it takes to lift my heart today. I didn't know, one look from you, Was all I need to get lost, wonderfully lost Did you know, when our eyes meet, I wish that no one else could know this feeling These days, I don't watch MTV for the music These days, I'm here for YOU, let me prove it And when I hold your hand I wish that no one else could ever know How it feels, to be near youhonestly.. how can u get eliminated with such a song?? then again.. with songs.. who knows if u really mean it..

going to change my study plan. i'll sleep in the daytime and study at night. I CAN'T SEEM TO STUDY IN THE DAY!! i've done everything except study today.. online shopping, watching vcds (which i have watched at least 5 times before), downloading songs (alex fong's album "be good".. just cos it's called "be good").. you name it i've done it. need to find out where to get caffeine pills from. i just drank coffee.. waiting for the gastric pain to set in.. tho i hope it doesn't. aniwae i shall sleep in the daytime and study at night. aja aja fighting! (guess which vcd i was watching..)

candice is going to chop off her head.. but she has to wait until the last episode of eye for a guy to root for howard. her days are numbered alright. hahaha. ok back to studying. enough distraction for a day.
i volunteered for the mock osce.. which was this morning. part of me wished i didn't volunteer.. i need all the time i can get to study (yes i shld be studying now). i saw my ou xiang tho. and when he saw me he was, "what are u doing here?" "volunteering.." "u shld be studying." talked to him after the osce and i told him i'm making mind maps!! ha. oh and he said, u're supposed to come and see me sometime early next week. (!! he -was- serious abt it.. i was quite surprised. tho i shldn't be.. knowing how nice he is.) so i've got an appointment now.. for tuesday. heh. and i'll bring my mind maps.. as proof that i have been revising.. trying at least. he's SO nice.
 HIGHLAND COW jasline isn't the similarity uncanny?

i always turn my nose up at people (especially jas) who say things like, "i'll marry the guy who does such and such a thing for me." actually only jasline says things like that. haha. other pple are less extreme.. they say, "i'll fall in love with the guy who does such and such a thing for me." or "i'll melt if a guy does such and such a thing for me." (eg, piggyback rides..) u know how i feel abt such things. phoey. but THIS song.. i'm this close to saying something similar. not yet.. but close.

i don't know how to thank him enough. went to my ou xiang's office to borrow a book.. but ended up sitting and talking for slightly more than half an hr. and talking abt my lack of studying at that. how i can't concentrate. how i daydream a lot. how i get distracted by my comp all the time. (this is blogging!! and therefore not considered a distraction..) he gave plenty of advice.. and i've been trying to follow them the whole of this evening. it's not working that well yet.. but at least i'm getting a little bit of work done. i wonder if i'm being a nuisance. i don't care.. not now anyway. i need every bit of motivation and inspiration to study right now. so spoil me for a while longer.. let me take advantage of his nice-ness. 3 weeks and 2 days to the exams.. he told me to give him a weekly report on my revision progress. shld i feel bad for wasting his time? i'm honestly taking advantage of his kindness.. but at least it's giving me motivation to study harder. he told me that i'd better tell him that i've done some work by next week.. and he would be really upset if i lied. that's motivation for me. 3 week and 2 days to the exams.. i'm more stressed than ever.. but at least i can see a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel now.

had a sudden compulsion to blog.. but i have nothing to blog about. i dun want to start whining about the exams and how i don't have enough time. i don't believe that i'm checking out the eye for a guy website n moblog almost every other day. i don't even watch the show! the power of media. i'm disgusted with myself.. esp since i have so many more important things to do. coffee makes my stomach hurt. i need to stay awake tho. any suggestions anyone? oh did i tell u? this is my quote of the week: " anytime." and i played this hilarious joke on someone at dinner. it was sooo funny i couldn't help laughing. totally spoilt it cos he obviously realised it was me cos i was laughing so hard. but it was hilarious!! den he gave me that stone look.. which is worse than the angry look cos the angry look can look quite funny. the stone look is just.. stone. made me feel guilty. haiz. hahaha.. but it was sooo funny!! this is such a random entry. oh well. too bad.

forgot to add the bits abt my ou xiang.. he mentioned a couple of books near the end of the plenary.. and i didn't catch the first one.. so i went to ask him after the plenary. and we talked for a little while. until he saw this ukrainian guy standing ard.. and talked to him. i was just standing there listening n not saying anything.. (and happy just standing there listening n not saying anything). i mean.. it's rude to just leave when pple are talking. so i stayed.. and i'm not complaining haha.. gave me an excuse to stay. then he had to ask me if i was in a rush. or if i was staying to ask the speaker anything. i wasn't.. so obviously that was my cue to leave. haiz. aniwae b4 i left i asked him if i could drop by his office sometime.. (cos he offered to lend me the book tt i was asking him about).. and he said, "anytime." "anytime?" "anytime." haha. ok.. so i'll drop by "anytime" now.. and he went on to tell me tt if he's not in his office.. the book's on the bookshelf etc etc. yeah.. as if i'm going to take it if he's not there.
i saw my ou xiang today. =D was an ethics kinda lecture.. on diversity. my ou xiang wasn't lecturing.. he just introduced the speaker and rounded up the lect. (it's not really a lecture actually.. the plenary session). the plenary was really gd. lots of pple think it was a total waste of time.. cos it was not examinable.. nothing scientific actually. half of the pple didn't even turn up. i'm glad i went (for more reasons than one).. haha. the speaker was the kind that made u go, wow he's a great man. the things he said.. they made u think. i heard pple saying tt they were writing down the things he said.. (kinda like wat i did with the things that my ou xiang said). my ou xiang is one of a kind so let's not compare them. aniwae.. if u have time.. this is worth a read.. and a thought. but of course.. for pple like tiffany who didn't understand kingdom of heaven.. u might want to give this a miss. -------------------- The religious challenge is to find God’s image in someone who is not in our image, in someone whose color is different, whose culture is different, who speaks a different language, tells a different story, and worships God in a different way.

just got back from the hall ball. ok technically it's not "just".. spent 2 hrs in himara's flat b4 i got back to my room. had to take the pins out of my hair.. and i definitely can't do tt myself. it was actually quite fun. the ball i mean. not the actual ball to be accurate.. the getting-ready-for-the-ball-and-being-there part was fun. it was fun getting ready with frens.. it was fun spending time with frens. basically it's the company. and tiffany even tho i know u'll probably disagree and have lots of proof to back u up.. i have to say this. i think pple look best without make up. i don't why.. i just feel that way. make up probably does make pple look more attractive.. but i wouldn't want to look at my face that's been made up for the rest of my life. and having said that, i don't mean that i love looking at my face usually. it's just a comparison. (i did my eyes the way u taught me btw.. and everyone thinks tt i'm some make up talent now haha.) i might put up photos i took from the ball. just tt they probably wun have me in them. i look disgusting. even with make up on. how sad is that? himara was saying that the two of us must be the most unphotogenic people on earth. i am inclined to agree with her. bedtime. with my undone pbl and coursework (not to mention my non-existant revision) weighing on my mind. the stress is making my face erupt..

hahaha this is so amusing.. (i know i'm supposed to be doing my pbl/coursework/revision.. but i couldn't resist..) i was looking at my pr sch classmates' friendster pages!! and most of them haven't changed much hahaha. some have tho.. and i don't know if it's for better or worse. the pt is.. it's sooo funny seeing all these grown up versions of pple i used to know. hahaha. it was soo amusing. i don't mean it in a mean way honestly. it's funny cos u can so imagine them 10 years ago.. which isn't much different from the way they look now. hahaha. they probably feel the same way when they see my photos. hahaha.
