Some updates on myself...

Just finished the CNY dinner today... It really took up much of my time, hopefully i still have enuff time fer my hw... NExt week will be xiong... I'm crossing my fingers...
Just some thoughts...
Its in times of adversity that u get to know ppl... Some events really amaze me these days...
Ppl daring to go n do something tt they know they aint gd at... I can nv really do anything tt i know will embarrass myself big time, kudos to them!
Ppl helping out despite busy schedules... Even i myself may not be so willing...
Ppl who can just see others work n dun bother to lift a finger... Are Gfs really so influential?
Ppl who can tahan in times of adversity... keeping their cool n stuff...
N of cos... More...

I'm really stressing out over hw n stuff, cos i know i aint really having enuff time to cope... i aint really those keep cool kind, cos i always prefer to get things done before hand... Not trying to be spider or wadever, but tts generally the way i work...

N tonight at the CNY dinner, i was being saboed to sing AGAIN! I tot i had tried my best to siam liao, but... In the end... Everyone was like calling me out again lorz... Hiyohz... Felt so paiseh if i dun go up, so well there i am again... Special mentions to Mingyang(starting), aiqi(fer planning it long ago b4 hand), the MC aaron(fer adding on to the shouts), n of course my whole sophomore batch fer adding on to the "shihong" chant... N as usual think i sucked tonight, but oh well, at least it brought joy to everyone else, so guess its alright...

A long break...

Its been sometime since i last posted... Not tt i din write anything in these days but rather, some posts are just not meant to be seen by everyone... Have been thinking bt stuff these days...
Decided to pop by to say hi to all those who've missed me... (haha, wishful thinking on my part i think)
Well, after my nice trip to europe, which i took so many pics tt i haven fully finish labelling them, i've kindaf been in a holiday mood since... Dun feel so enthu bt studies as yet, think its a transient stage... I've always a hidden phobia of something in me these days, couldnt really tell what it is but just dun feel good... Have been playing quite a lot of dota n reading books n watching stuff to numb myself from it, but guess when the work kicks in, i wun even be recalling bt this uncomfortable feeling that i have...

Bz trying to get the chinese new year dinner going, hoping that nothing screws up this yr... I'll be playing a larger role in the dinner this yr, n sometimes, u just dunno tt a dinner can have soooo much stuff to do... Esp since we're sgreans who like to micro-think until the smallest of details, n have everything planned out b4 we even start the preparations...

I've also been having a lil headache over my final course this sem, have been arguing wif my advisor fer quite some time over this issue... Its like i want to take a harder course for the sake of learning more but it turns out that the course dxn fulfil some of my requirements... So i may have to take a course in which the material overlaps... Dun ask me y i have to take this course, i just want to have a course in which the material is interesting to me, n the load is not that heavy, after taking some tougher courses this sem... Even though i'm taking like much lesser mods than last sem, but i can foresee a much tougher life ahead... Hope i'm wrong...

Milan n Venice n more...

Just finished visiting Milan n Venice... Yeah, the supposed fashion capital and the city on the water... Din have internet connection these days so couldnt come online nor post anything... Think Milan was a lil boring fer me... Cos it aint as bustling as it seems... The shopping aint tt great i feel, it gives me a similar feeling to KL... Not too high tech... Gloomy... Wif still a few nice buildings... But along the streets, there were really many many shops... All small shops but with lotsaf posh but super expensive stuff... Its like a whole row of shops along the main road leading to the main shopping area... But even in the main shopping area, the shops werent those tt i knew of... Maybe tts y its a fashion capital, all the shops sprout out from there and start to get famous from there... Hmm... Heng we cutted down the stay in Milan from 3 to 2 days, else i'd get really bored there...

Travelled to Venice the next day which was surely much much more interesting... The travel guide was gd, and we were introduced to the doxens of stuff that we could have done there... Venice and Milan really reminds me of my trip to Peru, Milan similar to Lima, (though much much more ex) and Venice seeming like Cusco( wif a lil cultural flavor but definitely more touristy) Saw many exquisite masks n glassware in Venice, really wanted to buy it but well, its kindaf ex fer me n well, i dun haf too much money... Sianz... Really need to budget these days...
Too bad we din have enuff time to spend in Venice, else could've visited much more sights... But oh well, think at least i had fun there...

These 4 days were really quite fun fer me... I've always loved seeing the sights by foot... Without much stress from schoolwork or anything other things... The new yr just passed by so quickly, w/out me even realising it... ITs 2006 liao... tts fast... The millenium seemed to have just passed by... IT seems only yesterday that i was celebrating 2000 but now, 6 yrs have gone... Jc flew by in a flash, the stupid A's coming much faster than i thought... Freshman sem was goen fast too, n i din really feel like i've been in CMU fer very long... Army... Well, din even wanna talk much bt it... It was like BMT, OCS, unit, then gone... All in a blink of an eye... REally wished to turn back time now, back to jc times... Those were the times i really think i was enjoying myself... Unlike now... So stressful... Everyone seems so hardworking until that i feel myself being too slack... Arrgh... But i dun wanna have no life other than studying too... Arrgh, heck larz... Just take wadever i am gng to take... Do wadever i think i shd do... N dun think bt the rest of the stuff... Yeah, tt shall be my new year's resolution!

This yr i shall do wadever i want to do... Be it work or play, i shall keep myself happy always!

N oh yeah, talking bt being happy, fer some weird reason, i feel myself being easily irated by those ppl who dun obey rules... I've been to several museums, and most of them disallowed the taking of pictures... But there are still many ppl who keep taking... Y cant these ppl just obey the rules of the place... Dun they know that rules are there fer a reason? But well, think its just me... Being too used to sticking to rules until such that i dun want to break rules unless there's a justifiable reason for doing so... Kk, think tts more than enuff... Glad that there's at least internet here...
