Dots.

Tuition kid is getting more disobedient. Asked him to do his work and he refuses to. Instead, he decided to take pleasure in looking at me.

Me : Why are you looking at me? I asked you to do the calculations leh, not look at me. My face looks like the abacus ah huh?

Kid : Hehehehehehehe. Ya. Your pimples can be the beads. 1, 2, 3 . . .

Me : . . . . . .

Sighs. My self esteem and morale is at an all-time low.

Heard this phrase and would like to just share it - Do not love out of sympathy.

Random

This is going to be such a random post.

Its 4am and I dont feel the least bit sleepy. Ok. Maybe a teeny weeny bit. I think my biological clock is seriously in trouble. This is so not good. On hindsight, maybe its good training for my exams, looking at the state of the amount of work Ive done so far. Zilch. Web surfing was distracting me from my project. EEks. I've got to wake up my idea.

And. Treasure the people around you now. Sometimes we really do take them for granted, given that they always seem to be there for us. On top of that, do realise how much YOU mean to the people in your life too. As much as we need love and want to be loved and cared for, we need realise how important YOUR love and care is to someone. You may not know how important this is until little actions prove so. Like when a simple phone call to you becomes 8 missed calls, when SMS-es to you goes unanswered, when person decide to find out via best friend if anything is wrong; you realise the place you have in the person's life. So, whatever it is, do always know your loved ones always want the best for you, even when things are handled badly, when harsh words spoken, when there's too much interference. They would not have even bothered with your matters should they dont care. Its just hard to draw a balance at times.

So, dont throw tantrums and assume the other person will know what's wrong. Say it out ya. Even if words dont come easy. Because you never know when you'll not regret for not doing so. Not very nice to live a life with regrets eh? =)

I think this is such an incoherent post. But anyhow, I should TRY to get to sleep now. So much work to do, so many deadlines to meet. Superwoman, I want to be. Girl, I am.

They will soar on wings like eagles, they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.

With kids like these..

Scenario 1

Tuition Kid: My friend got MasterCard leh.

Me: Huh? You mean your friend's parents have a MasterCard right?

Kid: Eh, Ya. (Pause) My father dont have leh.

Me: Oh. Ok. (Dots)

Kid: You know what's a MasterCard right?

Me: Yes.

Kid: Only rich people have MasterCard hor.

Me: . . . .

Scenario 2

I was humming a tune.

Kid: Eh! Your song very sweet leh.

Me: You mean my singing.

Kid. Yah. Your voice very sweet leh!

Me: Haha. Thanks ah.

Kid: Hahahahahahaha. You talk to your friend also very sweet!

Me: Huh? How you know? You heard me talking to my friends meh?

Kid: No. . . I guess one!

Me: . . . OKkkkk.

Kid: Hahahahahahahahahaha! I know! Then you talk to your bf also very sweet!!!!!

Me: . . . . . . . Who says? (Come from where one????)

Kid: Yah! Your bf mah! So sure talk very sweet one!

Ok. This kid really need to stop watching too much tv. He's getting too entwined with the social norms already.( Shucks, the soci writing mode is stuck)

It really is a great joy to give than to receive. The shock, the speechless silence, joy, happiness and the thrill sure outweigh the costs. I like. Though I wouldnt mind receiving as well too la. Haha.

And I didnt go to the IT fair after all! When can I get my wireless! On second thoughts, maybe after the exams. Or the wireless connection will be used extensively by me and no work will be done! Like now. Eeks. Nebermind. The WHOLE island is going to be wired wirelessly (atrocious english) and its free! Yehs! Finally something smart.

Its going to be a loooong loooong night.

Im bored.

IM BORED. BORED TO THE MAX, BORED TO THE CORE.

Ok, Im supposed to be finishing up with my proposal, study for my test on Wed, researching for my project meeting tmr, preparing for a presentation on Thur and on top of all these, revising my work.

And yet, nothing has been done. Great. I love to whine. Haas. By the way, I want to get this Mambo top that's 79 bucks? Anyone want to contribute to the Mei Yen's-Mambo-Top fund?

Passed by the night scene of Esplanade and Shenton Way while on the ECP last night and a sudden sense of apprehensiveness overwhelmed me. Apprehensive about what Im going to do after I graduate, what Im going to do with my life, what Im going to do about my future. Everything seem so uncertain, yet so certain. There could be many detours, turns, twists and obstacles ahead. Thinking about it made me realise how unprepared I am. Or am I?

Haha. Questions, questions, questions. Like, what would I be doing if I didnt take the route I did? What would have happened if I had made a different decision? Who would be in my life if I hadnt made that choice to let them enter? I would never know, because I would have to go back to the past.

Would I want to go back to the past then? Hmm. A part of me says I want to relive the memories I have, to go through the earlier years of teenhood and childhood. BUT. I wouldnt. I guess I would prefer to preserve those as my special memories, unique to me and always hold them dear to me. At times when I feel nostalgic, I can look back and smile or laugh at the memories I hold so dear. As for ugly scenes, it makes one grow up. So they arent exactly bad after all. =)

'What if's' are nonsense too. "What if's ' can never change a situation to how you want it or let you get what you want. They are just redundant questions to make you feel more sorry for yourself. Bah. Only you or I can help ourself to pick up and move on.

Wells. Super long entry! Haha. Guess this week has been a pretty eventful week. The upcoming weeks are going to be busy, busy, busy!!

To you guys and girls, thank you so much for being in my life and being my friend. My life or memories would not have been so lovely and sweet without your presence. Ive really been blessed. God is good! =)
