Always see it on T.V.
Read it in the magazines
celebrities who want sympaty
all they do is piss and moan
inside the rolling stone
talking about how hard life can be

I'd like to see them spend the week
living life out on the street
I don't think they would survive
if they could spend a day or two
walking in someone else's shoes
I think they'd stumble and they'd fall
(they would fall, fall)

Lifestyles of the rich and the famous
they're always complainin
always complainin
if money is such a problem
well they got mansions
think we should rob them

aaaaaaaarrrrggghhh... i'm soooo bored i could kill myself now. I have toopid 3 hour break tml... and i have no idea wat to do. Maybe I'll go play pool, maybe i'll go shopping... maybe... i'll juz sit at the atrium and doodle for 3 hour... oh hell... i'll juz go home and sleep... give toopid PM practical a miss. Regarding PM... I haven done any tutorial or practical... watever homework there is to be done... oh well, i dun give a damn, today's my day break from study since i did study a little tinty weety bit for today's AF quiz. I think I flunk tat paper... 10 toopid mcq-but-very-tricky questions. Poor vinson... lost his pencil box at the LT... worst, his LAN card (which btw belongs to the school) is inside... hmm... hope he finds it back.

Some things in life are bad,
They can really make you mad,
Other things just make you swear and curse,
When you're chewing your life's gristle
Don't grumble, give a whistle,
And this'll help things turn out for the best,
And.....

Always look on the bright side of life. [whistling]
Always look on the light side of life. [whistling]

OMG... someone who used to sit beside me during sec school days' got a BLOG?!??!! Waada u know... a bimbo chiobu created a blog... haahaa... no offence... juz kidding around... anyway this friday is new year eve already... no mood wat-so-ever about chinese new year. Imagine, sitting at home on the first day of chinese new year... kinda sad i wun be visiting my relatives... hopefully they come see me, den again, maybe not. Gonna visit my mentor's house on the third day of CNY... poor dude... gotta prepare food for a bunch of hungry ghost students. Hope we dun mess up his house.

Edited: Goodness... jean's got a blog too! yahoo.. check out their site at the link section ya.

Yesterday's Shila Birthday... that gal turning 19 already huh. Better behave properly... neh i'm juz kidding. Went shopping a couple of times this week... saw some nice clothes... its hard to find nice clothes nowadays... i try out this dress at P.O.A... quite nice but its abit big for me... they suggest i alter but it'll cost a few bucks... the dress is 89 bucks... if i alter... it'll cost almost as much as my prom dress... i decided not to buy, expensive, more importantly... i wun wear it often.

I've got this movie review to write by tml 12 noon. A homework for my 'Appreciating Film' module. The thing is, I skipped lecture this week and the movie was screen during lecture. Luckily, I've seen the movie before... 12 monkeys. Very interesting movie... not easy to understand. For me that is. You should go watch it if you have the time.

Gave school a miss today. Wasn't feeling very well. Almost fainted in the bathroom today. I figured I might not make it to school with my given condition so decided to stay home. Slept the whole day away. Feel so sick... after eating dinner, my temperature went up... great... here comes fever. Gulp down tons of plain water. Thankfully the temperature dropped abit. Must be the weird weather... everyone's getting sick.

Time flies... din even notice i miss my 9pm slot to blog. Was playing online games. Been hooked since yesterday. futari ga kitto deaeru you na mahou wo kakete Some time wasted today. Haven't done my revision for today yet. Funny, I was planning to sleep at 10pm today. I think we'll take that thought away for this week. Busy week ahead. Study, shopping for new year clothes, sleeping, playing online games... boring life yeah?! 'Do something constructive!'... someone told me that once. I forgot who. I haven done much stuff today, so I gonna sacrifice my sleep... ok juz a little. You know how important sleep is to me right... right?! Anyway, I better get ready for a long day of school tomorrow.

How come I always blog around 9pm? Anyway, went for my first 'Intro into China' lesson today. I tell you, most of the time I duno wat tat china guy is talking about. I'll also have to write journals and do an individual assignment. OMG!

I was on my way home today. Saw lotsa polices and indians at little india. Today's thaipusam. Saw alot of Kavadi Carriers (picture below). It was a long stretch of road to walk. So amazing.

Plugged him... my fellow hostee. He moved. Go check out his site... I love the new layout.

So how was school for you guys this week? I'm getting lazier as days goes by. Today went to my school bazaar to take a last look. Saw lotsa smurfs figurine. Very cute. My eyes caught this little figurine of a smurf playing a jazz set which cost 35 bucks. If I have the extra money, I'll buy it without hesitation, but... I havent bought my new year clothes, and alot of other things. So this have to wait. Anyway, I found out from the shop owner that she hangs out at Clake Quay on sundays. Maybe I'll pay her a visit one day.

Edited: Question, where are your usual hangouts? Places restricted within Singapore only. Heez... sorry.

Went Causeway Point to watch 'HERO'. I must say, I was quite dissappointed with the movie. Although the special effects, the soundtrack, the cast is kinda well done, the storyline bored me to death. I shall not be a spoiler and tell you about the story. If you really wanna watch this movie, den go, if not, don't waste the money. I'm sure there are more interesting movies... talking about movies, what happened to Matrix II? I thought it was coming out last year december? Anyway, I'm gonna catch Jacky Chan's next movie, 'Shanghai Knights'. I got a mini calender of that movie as a free gift from Cathy.

Edited: Clara, Shanghai Knights will be showing during Chinese New Year.

Ah... the monday blues.... i have only one tutorial class today at 3pm. Hopefully can shift the class to somewhere else so I wun have classes on monday. Anyway, I came home and watched parts of the Renci Charity Show at Channel U yesterday. Their show wasn't really tat interesting to me but they managed to hit their target. Which was awsome cause they din have any prizes for those who donated like Channel 8. I think this should be the case for charity shows. You dun donate because you wanna win some prize. Your donation should come from your heart. Hopefully Mediaworks do more charity shows.

Went back to my work place on saturday to wait for the friends. See many new faces, probably 16/17 yrs old waiting for 'O' level results. Heard many complains about those new comers too. Haha... glad I've gone to enjoy life. Watch the friends eat supper at some Kopitiam beside Bayview Hotel, den walked to MS play bowling. The game was slow and draggy. I din have the mood to play at all. My toopid ball keep heading for the 'drain'. Argh... I was hoping we could play pool after the game of bowling but they were closing already. Worst, we came all the way juz to have one game of bowling. Luckily, me and friend went Ginza Plaza to play pool on sunday after we finish slacking at friend's house.

Gotta go shower and set off for school now. Ja ne.

Ah... school... driving me up the wall already. Anyway, tomorrow's Jean's Birthday. Let me sing a song ya?!

Happy birthday to you!
Happy birthday to you!
Happy birthday to Jean!
Happy birthday to you!

Hope u have a great time at Hendrix tml. Oh... LF suggested going bowling on sat nite... hopefully it works out. Following day, we'll go swimming. Haven't gone swimming for a long long time.

I'm totally disgusted by my PM tutor. I can foresee hell from him.

So how was first day of school for you guys? In my case, I juz go school for one tutorial. Boring huh. Yeah... tml will be worst. First lesson at 8am. Hopefully the tutor will be nice enuff to let us sleep in class.

School officially starts tomorrow. First day of school gotta bring laptop. Totally throws my mood away. Maybe I'll juz pretend I din read the e-mail about bringing laptop tml. Wat can u do with a laptop on the first day of school? Install programs? Maybe. Anyway I'll juz be attending one tutorial class... that's all. Cause the next class is cancelled. And I only have two classes on monday. Yeah... two classes with 4 hours break in between. Gosh... I have no idea how to spend those 4 hours for the next 16 weeks. I shant complain about the timetable anymore cause Mr. Pham is having enough trouble with students not electing their elective modules.

Happy 2003 everyone! Made any New Year resoultions yet? For me, well... study hard and score well, save more money and be more happy. The rest is for me to know and for u to find out.
