Long due post

First and fore-most, a happy happy happy birthday to our dearest Belinda! The ‘youngest’ of the group is now an official member of the 21s. I think the party was great and we’ve got a couple of people getting red faces (literally!) during dinner. Food was good (thought the ‘chilli’ fish didn’t really go with the beer. Yisiong and I had funny tastes in our mouth. =p ) Well, happy unwrapping the presents and hope u like the shoe! (guess we all know that you DO like that pair of shoes. You DID chose it didn’t you?)

Okay, this is kinda delayed… The above paragraph was typed on Saturday, but apparently I just couldn’t find time to complete it and post it up. Met up with the Tuan Qi on Saturday and headed to St Andrew’s Church for a seminar. The speaker was really funny and he really got the floor engaged in the session. Especially when he mentioned about the “empathy deficient syndrome”. Got to know this new girl from China who’s just joined the Fellowship not long ago. Didn’t really manage to talk to her but got to know that she’s here working and have only been here for 4 months.

Left the seminar early and met up with Neo and GF, Faizal and HS for the NUS dance performance ‘Destiny’. Very interesting and colouful performance by the NUS dance group. We managed to get the front seats duly because of HS’s ‘close’ relationships with the President of the dance club. Tsk tsk. Went down to Orchard after the performance with Faiz and HS. Were contemplating between Orchard, Holland V and Newton. Ended up in Orchard and did some catching up. Interesting night with interesting things happening. Managed to catch the first half of the match between England and Andorra. Didn’t know that the Andorra people were actually full time workers, part time soccer players. Little wonder why they didn’t play that well.

Sunday was great. Stayed home and attempted Physics, gave up after the second question. Just can’t grasp the freaking concept of Quantum Physics. And I thought Optics was bad. Tsk. It’s getting on my nerves. And guess what? I lost my entire tutorial today. Got to reprint and reDO the entire thing. Went on to Chemistry and was stuck at a few questions, but was generally still manageable. Wait till I get to the tougher topics. Pfffft. Read the Econs notes and tried to make sense of the dumb curves that has a rather irritating habit of shifting up and down, left and right, seemingly trying to make things easy and explain to us the effects of certain actions taken by the market forces. But nothing made sense in the end. Guess there’s gonna be more memory work at the end of the day. Oh, who ever came up with the ‘invisible hand theorem’? Kowtow.

Had dinner at the half-coffee shop, half-hawker centre place near Siglap. I realized that after eating Qiu {ian Ban Mian, ALL the rest of the Ban Mian never tastes as good. Maybe it’s just me. Anyone who disagrees? Well, I think somehow Qiu {ian has somehow ‘monopolized’ the Ban Mian industry in Singapore. (OMGoodness. MONOPOLY. ECON’s is INVADING my BRAIN).

Oh, did I mention that I feel like my brain is like a clogged artery? Yeah. Feels like it. More and more crap being deposited in it.

And comes today. Nothing beats going to tutorials with the crap in the intestines ready to blow just about any time. The ‘sensations’ and ‘OOoomph’ that I encountered during the 2 hour tutorial was FoooooooooooooooAH! Okay. Pardon my funny noises. But I think it really that holding your crap back is actually an ART. Especially when one’s got to position in really funny and lady-like positions, in an attempt to delay the take-off.

Had a rather interesting Econs lecture today (surprisingly I wasn’t THAT lost during today’s lecture). But only down side was that quarter-way through the lecture, this guy came in and sat down on the chair beside mine. He talked with his friend for a while and went to SLEEP soon after. He didn’t even bother to take a look at the slides or take out his notes. And he had a REALLY tough time trying not to doze off onto my side. Had urges to do funny things, but owells.

Got a call from some unknown person half-way through the lecture and didn’t pick it up. Finally when the caller decided to message, I was half happy, and half disappointed. Let’s just name this person X. Now it sounds like I’m doing maths or computing. Assignment of variables. ARGGH. What the heck.

Ok, so X is related to Y (another unknown variable here). Ok, let’s just ignore Y. Anyway, X has had some problems and once approached me for aid. And soon after, X left and I never heard of X again. But suddenly X surfaced again. And this time, X needs more help. Help that I can’t possibly give. Help that is beyond my means. If I could, I know I would help. But, after what has happened, something holds me back. Unexplainable forces. Well, things started getting worrisome as I got to know how much ‘help’ X actually needed. Why on earth would X need THAT much help? Just what kind of trouble has X gotten into? Something even my darkest imagination can’t picture. I would love to find out more, to satisfy my curiosity, and do what I can do, but I just can’t bring myself to do it. And I wonder why. Y Y Y?

Alright. I’m getting a calling from my Vectors and Complex numbers worksheets. They’re calling me. OH no. I’m hearing things. Haha.

A very goodnight to whoever reads this in the night.
Who ever is reading this in the morning, have a great day ahead.
And lastly, to you who are reading this in the afternoon, I hope your day has been great so far and from now till the night, hope that it gets better and better.
