» わたしのこと «


The writer does not intend to but tends to make silly remarks that make others laugh. Sometimes she enjoys this unintentional trait of hers, and sometimes she detests it. But nevertheless, she loves to laugh at silly things, both good and bad, mostly little silly things, because she finds that life is too short to spend it sulking away. She also tends to be sarcastic with her words because the subtlety of dry humour makes her laugh even more and lightheartedly at those who "just don't get it."

    Where number two is first...

    Wednesday, May 03, 2006



    The end is the start of something new.

    Daniel has rightly reminded me that we are not starting a faction, we're revolting: "Where number two is first." So hurry up, you two slow pokes and finish the exams so we can officially launch our revolution, albeit with dim sum and chocolate buffets and real chicken-ginseng-tonic soup, and more bitching and trashing of long-repressed issues of the heart, and not be smothered by them *ahem*

    Of course not forgetting that pink is the hot colour of our revolution. Yes you read it right, hot-screaming pink. Even Daniel has converted to our pink-ness, well considering he was the one who made the logo. Kim and I are of course well immersed in the bright pink, orange, yellow what have you... but now we shall concentrate on pink. And Eric, pink is definitely not a gay colour... you are. Muahahaha...

    That aside, I just realised that I was beginning to get used to my way of taking exams when it ended this morning. Since this semester I had the luck of having all 9am papers, I shall use a specific time frame to describe:

    9am. Right, the paper just started. There's no need to start writing furiously... let's take a look at the questions hmm... okay... okay... turn page... okay... what to write what to write... doodles on paper and think about which question I can crap the most...

    9.15am. Oh shit 9.15 already?? Okay start writing something at least... that's it, I'll start on the introduction, that's surely needed right?

    9.30am. Oh shit. I'm only at the intro and still am not done with it yet... panic mode to start on essay. Wait a minute, what's my point exactly? Starts to revise point and starts swiftly on essay.

    10.00am. AHHHHHH!!! 10!!! I still have another essay to do and am not done with this one yet... hmm okay, I need a conclusion now... concludes in 1 or 2 mins.

    10.05am. Ok no time to do any planning, just choose the first question that catches my attention and sounds good. Now go, full steam ahead! Of course the handwriting looks so distorted I have to keep going back to correct my 'a's and 'e's... why do they look the same?

    10.50am. Hey you know what.. I'm at the conclusion now hehe, so much for rushing like mad. Stares at the impossibly scrawled squiggles on my paper. What are those things doing on my paper?? Shit no time to change, I sincerely hope Prof XX can read my handwriting. I solemnly promise to remove any poxes on them should I have given them any and not give them anymore until the day I get my grades back.

    In conclusion, I realise I'm quite a bad performer if I relax at the beginning of every exam thinking that 2 hours is a lot of time and rushing full steam ahead in the second half of the paper. Then again, it's worse if I panic at the beginning of the paper like I did a few sems back... In the end I get like two horribly perhaps half-written chunks that somewhat resemble an essay.

    So perhaps the revolution will do me some good like pass me some of the great performing stunts of Kim and Daniel through diffusion or something... heh pretty please?

    On another note, I also realised that when one lacks sleep, one can notice things very sharply and yet not be bright enough to understand why, for instance...

    Nicholas's hair looks weird today... in fact it looks kinda flat... why? "It grew."

    Sianying's wearing a skirt today... I've never seen her wear a skirt before!! Why? "I'm going out later."

    Dawn looks much fairer today... why? Er I didn't ask her because I forgot all about it when she and Barney started chatting animatedly about their dating agency during lunch. But upon reflection, I suppose she got fairer from staying indoors 'cos of studying for the exams.

    Xiaohui's so cynical about the '10 ways you know a guy is crushing on you' type of article... She'll flatly reject any one of the 10 ways immediately after you throw it at her, like:

    "What if the guy said 'I love you'?"

    XH: "He's probably treating you as a substitute for his mother." ERRRR....

    why? I wasn't able to figure out why then but now that I thought about it, perhaps it's the lack of sleep, or maybe it was always innate in her but I just didn't realise it.

    Barney said she loves her Baleno black t-shirt. Erm.. why? "I don't like Baleno... I just like the shirt."

    Not to worry, the rest of you escaped my sleepy helium-high of an eye today, which is rather fortunate of you I must say. Hopefully there aren't so many of this so I won't have to worry about asking funny pointed questions like: "what happened to your face?"

    Nah, I probably just need more sleep, that's all.
