gimmie a sprint!

life is not a spectaror sport. win lose or draw, the game is in progess. whether we want it to be.

play hard, play fast, play lose and free.

play as if there's no tomorrow.

but actually, there will be a tomorrow.

a tomorrow when i'm gonna hand the essay in!

which reminds me, i should get back to it right now.

the self extension

i now have a grand total of TWO (a good 60ish hours) to complete the mind boggling essy question.

gee, all this effort

had

better

be

worth

it.

But i comfort myself with Unibites breakfast on Monday at 8! Or some time between 8 till 10 :) What a grrreat way to start the week!

it has to stop somehow

money wouldnt pay for:

my mad obsession (which i promise to stop and act on instead)

an extension fo tomorrow's deadline. damn it, its not supposed to be so difficult.

negating the increasing levels of stress i'm encountering now.

my unfathomable lack of stamina

sigh

double sigh.

o happiness

i went to uni for an hour today. and that made my day! seeing amy, andrew, RICHARD! omg, so funny that fellow. hmn who else, paul. yeah, it stops there. :) no it doesnt..its just so fun! :)

so there's breakfast on Monday at Uni bites! oh, so exciting!

hee hee. just imagine me sitting in front my laptop. GRINNING.

hopeless.

so here's the deal

i could submit my essay on Friday, or a weekend later at the expense of 1 mark.

but of course, that isnt the million dollar (arguably trillion) question. the 50%, 2000 word, SIX worded question...seems to be taking forever to begin. compacency, i say, is the worst degree of inertia.

with the wiff off Nescafe 3 in 1 (o thank God for instant coffee), and Faye Wong's Dan Yue Ren Chang Jiu (i mean, classic chinese song. i'm proud YO.)

its now 12 minutes after 12. which means, technically, my essay is due tomorrow.

wow. great news. i think the first proposition is compelling, almost certain.

a central theme

I've been watching your world from afar
I've been trying to be where you are
And I've been secretly falling apart
Unseen
To me, you're strange and you're beautiful
You'd be so perfect with me
But you just can't see
You turn every head but you don't see me

Sometimes the last thing you want comes in first
Sometimes the first thing you want never comes
But I know that waiting is all you can do
Sometimes


So strange, but so beautiful

eagerness

the best way to put it would be to say,

i cant believe i'm excited to go to uni tomorrow. not for the lectures, but for the non academic meeting.

o someone bring me back to reality please. the hike was over 3 days ago.

sometimes i like to be unrealistic.

thats me, right now. :)

speeding limo

gday guys!

i'm still alive after what i perceived as a hardcore 3 day 2 night hike. we covered,

thiry
30
san shi
THREE ZERO.

KM.

so its back to civillization after rock climbing, kneee jerking, back breaking hiking. it wasnt easy, but hey, i loved it! the thrill's an addiction.

plus, the buncha people on the hike were so warm :) i like :) and honestly, kei was a great partner to have while hiking. it was great, really, how we check on each other.

okay, thats all for now. pics up soon.

CU on Thursday! tres excited.

HASTA LAVISTA BABY

in 6 hours, i'll be up having my first and last shower for 3 days and 2 nights. Then its LAKE MOUNTAIN all the way! this time, its pretty hard core (to me at least) - sleeping bag, huge hiking bag (the sort that is overtowring by half a head taller), and lotsa junk food.

brought the camera, got the spirit, so i'm pretty much all pumped up! :)

pray the weather would be kind to Kei and i, cos we're not bringing much clothes. (correction: i'm not bringing much clothes)

thats all i can muster at quarter past one in the morning. so forgive me now, and i promise pretty entertaining stories. its gonna be such an experience!

because Good things come in Small packages, honey.

Sensitivity.

Some people better learn its definition and embrace it.

Relationships.

Some people need to invest and treasure it.

Love.

Some people need to understand and put more thought into it.

macs confuse me

Picture this: i'm sitting here typing while jia is sleeping. interestingly, she just let out a lil grunt. not in a sexual kind of way of course. (omg, she will so kill me when she reads this)

but anyhow, i cant seem to use keyboards properly each time i try a new one, it plays up on me. technology and me are idiots to be. macs are really fun to use. i'm absolutely loving the multiple window view you get on your desktop!

Today was Smith Street shopping! I bought a navy green singlet and redish orangie like shirt. I like I like I like! :D Its a cheap thrill, walking down these factory outlets. Okay now, I get to the point.

My 1 week easter holiday has been well planned. Some work (much to my misfortune), and a 3 day 2 night trip to Lake Mountain! according to the docs, bush walking isnt an activity i should be engaging in. but stuff that :)

O fantabulous news to the lovely darlings back home: On top of my end june till end july holiday, yours truly will also be heading back again sometime mid august! Mum & Dad are tres happy. And so is Ms Kyrie Chie! :D More time at home is always good time. Like I told Li the other day, I feel like we need to head home. Sort of, you know, in search of ourselves again. The double life, they call it.

On a rather random note, i feel like going out for dinner tonight. And speaking of mouth watering food...Candice has just left for Sydney! O can you smell those Krispy Cremes. She's bringing some home for me! Thanks welly felly mucha.

As often claimed, I do have a point in this entry -Easter break!

So..ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, aunties (in fang's typical hongkong-ish "AUNTYYYYYYY" ) uncles..Its time for coffee meeting sessions and catch up over lunches and dinner. A must, I tell you. Rah, Nina, Jo! Hear my call? And 4th floor scheps, plus the Housies! :) You know the number, drop me an sms or give me a buzz when you're freeeeee! (arent we all? so no excuses!)

i cant hear a word you say

// thanks chelle! yeah i figured it was the num lock after a while...hee hee. have a good easter breakkie okay? :)

if there's no digging, there's no escape

i was gonna type a nice long entry about easter holidays and the change of plans.

but i thought of thought of something, no wait. someone. and i'm absolutely turned off.

it comes close to revolting.

my detrimental addicion

okay man. i swear, using this laptop could be the toughest thing in my life this year.

n6w can y64 get 0y -r6b3e0/. that was me typing, "now can you see the problem? basically everytime I type any oh the follwing letters:

u
i
o
j
k
l
m
,
.
;

the keyboard will show 456-123+0,.

and the laptop language is...in CHINESE. WELL DONE.

i justhave to keep holding the key. could NEC laptops be ANY more inconvenient?

tears & rain

i was gonna say, damn, this world is sad. no one's up at 5am...when,

sanne goes:
yeah! i'm up doing an essay.

so appreciative for life around me. basically, i've never been so glad to see someone online at 5. good ol' days i say, good ol days.

i've turned up the heater and closed the window but..my hands and feet are still a lil chilly. i wonder why.

i think..i will mamage to hand this in before 4.30. then..its jamie cullum's concert. i dont actually listen to the dude's music, but lets check it out anyhow right? :) i think i need the break.

o easter, never been so glad to welcome the month of edd hiding.

which reminds me that i've always loved having a lil sister to play tricks on. pity there aint one. anyone wanna be my sister? p.s you must be younger.

11.07

just when i feel like i've gotten more than enough sleep i need to recover from fatigue nights,

i need to be reminded again i have another essay due tomorrow.

2000 words; 677 words. i actually think i'm getting there! :)

finers crossed. lips sealed. i should stop getting distracted.

ta.

urgh

OK, lets call the person a BALL. i am very disturbed. how does the friggin ball expect me to show appreciation if you want to remain so curt? i mean, fine, its not up to expectations. but there's is no need for any saracsm and there surely isnt any need for any further embarrassment. this time, i'm not taking it very well. someone told me not to go to the ball anymore. urgggggggggh. sheesh!

right ball, screw it. you're not going to affect me now. you've been great help so far. everything before this. thanks.

the coffee cup

in desperate measures to keep focused, i think i found one. its not about excretion or anything to do with nature in particular. its about this man.

martin luther king sure wasnt wrong when he said,

The true measure of a man is not how he behaves in moments of comfort and convenience but how he stands at times of controversy and challenges.

i.am.constipated.

jia just inspired me.

i am constipated.

you see. i procrastinate like shit.

so just like nature of shit, it needs to come out (or excreted, for the language junkies) but it cant !!!!!!!

if stress was 1 at its least and 10 at its most.

i am a...8. SHEESH.

like seriously, who cares about bollywood. OR THE AWB SCANDAL for petes sake.

Flying High - Jem

You can’t know, oh no, you can’t know
How much I think about you, no
It’s making my head spin
Looking at you, and you are looking at me
And we both know what we want
So close to giving in

Feel so nice, oh yeah you feel so nice
Wish I could spend the night,
But I can’t pay the price
Oh no, no

But I’m flying so high
High off the ground
When you’re around
And I can feel you're high
Rocking me inside, it’s too much to hide

I know, oh yes, I know that we can’t
Be together, but I, I just like to dream
It’s so strange the way our paths have crossed
How we were brought together
It’s written in the stars it seems

Feel so nice, oh yeah you feel so nice
I’d love to spend the night,
but I can’t pay the price
Oh no, no

And I’m flying so high,
High off the ground
When you’re around
And I can feel you're high
Touching me inside, and it’s too much to hide

Back to earth, where did you take me to?
I know there’s no such thing
This painless love, well it’ll catch us up
And we can never win
But oh, I feel so alive
Oh, just wanna hold you
Hold you so tight

And I’m flying so high
High off the ground
When you’re around
And I can feel your high
Touching me inside
And it’s too much to hide
And I’m flying so high
High off the ground
When you’re around

the new law

i propose a new law, and i reckon all uni students should be back me up on this one:

no assessment at all; permanently.

how's the student gonna be assessed then? i dont know, dont care and really dont give two flying cows about how the system works!

so until wednesday comes, i will be adamant on this stance. i am bugged by this nagging feeling. i am bothered by a few non academic things. and it really seriously doesn't help when the words arent coming to me like water gushing out of an open dam.

i am the president of the OTW. join the club ladies and gentlemen. i named it Oblivious to Work.

sorry, the vice president position is high acclaimed by Mel. positions up for grabs include secretary, treasurer etc. you name it, i've got you in the committe.

stress does this to me. a whole new char. a whole new load of bull. or cows, monkeys, donkeys and chimpanzees.

let the anger simmer

Just for this sweetie, who is fuming with uncontrollable anger..

i share my 5 orange gerbras with you! all 5 and the lamp behind.

so really,

beautiful, arent they!

but here's one specially for you :)

in short,








waking up too early

TODAY IS STEPHIE'S BDAY! HAPPY 20th SWEETIE.

the big two honey, but you're still my twenteen! :)

we made her 20 pancakes with nutella and bananas.

so I come back to my room. the first thing which comes to me isnt the snowball of work, but a romantic date, with PANCAKES.

Its in the middle of night, you pick her up from her place as promised. All she knows is she's safe in your car to this God forsaken location hours drive away. You dodge all questions and put up with the question firing range, throughout the entire journey. She then gets exhausted from the inquisition, and falls asleep.

Then you get to this beautiful cottage, provided wth cooking facilites. so you take the ingredients in your car...then both of you start whipping up breakfast together. :)

Oh and dont forget Jack Johnson's Banana Pancakes as the first song to play when both of you start to make breakfast. :)

By the time breakkie's ready, take them out and you could enjoy the sunrise together.
