I wanna sleep

Wow. What a roller-coaster the past few days have been. Emotions and funny feelings came and went.

Anyways, a happy (belated) 21st birthday day to cuzzie! Yes, we’ve finally met up. And thanks for your invite to your party. It was great. =) Hope you liked the present and the purple-floating-lights. Haha. Was just wondering why you wanted purple. Owells! Oh, the gold marker refused to come off. I had to SCRUB and SCRAP it off. Thanks ah! I bet ALL your other friends are cursing and swearing. *grins* Well, what’s the name of your friend again? =p (and did I mention that we really look spastic in that candid shot of us talking?)

That was on Friday night. Took the bus back, and well… not-so-happy things sorta happened. Decided to call it a day and went straight home. Sorted out some thoughts and tucked into bed. Hoping that the following day would be better.

Woke up only in the afternoon, and started mugging after having some peanut butter bread. Kept thinking of Alvin’s extremely HUGE peanut butter while making my sandwich. Re-did the 2 physics tutorials and re-read the lecture notes on Optics 2 times to prepare for Monday’s Physics test. Kinda stressing myself out at that point of time. Skipped the fellowship gathering and stayed home, till late night.

Met up with Raymond, Hong and Maurice. Had dinner and cakes at Cartel. 6 cakes for 4 guys. What a sight. Should have taken photos. Owells. Thought that carrot cake was not my type. Shall stick to Aunty Amy’s and they cheesy ones. Caught Prada and thought that the show was just alright. But the wardrobe on showcase was fwah. Outfits that people walking down Orchard wouldn’t wear; outfits that seem worth a semester of “cai fan” lunches for me, or maybe even more.

Drove them back home and had a moment to myself before knocking out on the bed. How quickly the weekend was passing by, I thought to myself. Woke and did some readings once again. Thought Eric how to draw bamboos using the Chinese paint brush. It was funny how he kept complaining why his bamboos look so ‘skeleton’ as compared to mine. But I thought he put in a pretty effort and the final product was alright. Hope his art teacher would give him the credit he deserves.

Evening came quickly and took the bus down to church. Was intensively reading “Mary, Mary” as the bus crawled to Yishun. It’s my 5th Patterson book this year, I think. Maybe 6th. Anticipating the next one- “Cross”.

Was on time for service and had quite a bit to think about throughout the service. Maybe it was the anticipation of Monday’s test; maybe it was the undone tutorials; maybe it was something else. Am just glad that He’s always there to hear me out. Thank you.

Came back to hall and tried doing the questions at the back of the physics textbook. Was happily doing, until when Ben sent a most devastating msn message: “Quantum is tested tomorrow. I asked the tutor through email.”

It was 12midnight when I received the message, and the test was less than 9hours away. The concepts of Quantum has not yet settled in my head then, and at the same time my head crying foul. Decided to give up on quantum and went to sleep, praying for the best.

The test came and well, don’t think I wanna get the paper back. Monday was sleepy because of all the late nights and I told myself that I ought to sleep. But horror of horrors, I slept at 4am. Was rushing to complete the formal lab report, and yes I completed it. It was due 2nd October but something just came over me and wanted me to complete it. Somehow, after all the CCA and PSA hike logs that I’ve been through, this lab report didn’t seem that tedious. Chatted with Hoon in between here and there, and I’m a godpa-soon-to-be. Evil girl snatched all the other babies away. TSK.

Went down to block C and witnessed Tian getting thrashed by eggs and flour and toothbrush at midnight. It was his birthday and Kai just couldn’t resist the chance to whack his roomie. What buddies! =) Came back and read Jee’s blog and well, I’m happy for you sista! Really. Stay happy and hope you’ll be happy for a very long time. =)

Here I am. Feeling sleepy again. There’s a meeting at 2245hours and I’ve yet to write my programmes for tomorrow’s computing lab. Was reading through it and they are very LONG programmes. Sighs. No sleep again tonight. People out there who have only got 3days of lessons per week, please refrain from complaining. People like us would gladly switch timetables with you. We would DIE to have timetables like yours. So, look at it this way: you’re not the worst of the lot. There ARE people out there who are even more tired and more retarded than you. Enjoy whatever you’re doing!

I shall stop here for now. Have a good week ahead people! One more week to term break! We can do it. =)

(I can’t stand people who chew with their blardy mouth open, or slurp their soup down on purpose. Some think it’s okay, some think it’s disgusting. I don’t know what bothers me, BUT I JUST CAN’T STAND IT. Argh!)

Each time you part, you leave a bit of you behind. I’m realizing how big that part is. Bigger than I thought it would be. F*ck.
