haha!!! just had e feeling of chiong-ing... the loud, head-banging techno music... the smoke!!! haha but minus e drinks~ shall explain later...

was at bugis all morning till now... was there for e talentquest auditions with michele, seriously they were damn nerve-wrecking... so nervous!!! haha but there was dis grp of 3 guys who were after us and they were so funny. typical ah bengs but damn funny la, 1 guy telling the other 2 bout a clubbing experience haha damn geiyan.

after finishing our song, we went to long john silver for lunch. went to check out some perfumes at 1 shop as well, wah the enternity perfume smells quite nice!!! haha. yupz went shopping ard bugis. heh think i was quite on impulse today, bought 2 tees. damn nice sia!!! 1 from s & k and another from freshbox. freshbox has quite cool tees! almost even wanted to get a pair of adidas shoes!!! cos freaking cool and yeah cheap cos it's kids... but no size... mayb go queensway if i'm crazy enuff... hahaha went to check out some cheap cds and vcds... and later we proceeded to bugis village cos i felt like looking at von dutch tees... wah seh super eye opener... xiaomin ever told me bout e place but have yet to go there myself... btw bugis was freaking crowded 2day... esp bugis village! anw, back to bugis village... so much to see!!! bargaining is oso fun tho i did not buy anything from there in e end haha but yeah every shop was like playing techno music... they even played cny songs in techno remixed beats!!! not much ventilation as well, with some ppl smoking =/ yeah hence, the 'chiong-ing' part i mentioned in e beginning but yeah so many things to see, heard taufik's 'i believe' in 1 shop, wah seh damn damn nice!!!

after we got out of bugis village, was making our way back to e mrt and we saw dis hair salon, chapter 2. haha e shop looks v cool n unique from the outside, but the ppl working inside, possibly the stylists, their hairstyles look v outrageous and yeah extreme but not nice haha. anw by den we were totally shagged out. haha

all in all, a crazy and tiring but damn fun day! like e longest time i spent in bugis in a day. bugis seriously has this charm, with it's abundant choices of food, clothes and things to see!!! amazing!!! haha guess i'm just in a good mood~~~ ^_^

January 12th, 2005

the most interesting day of my nus life thus far...

Posted by gErRiNiC at 07:44 PM on January 12, 2005.

went to meet yilin, cheryl and daniel at munchie monkey for lunch (the 2nd time i've been here this week, the 1st time being on monday *bleah!*). only had salad as i'm like so sick of anything there already, i shall not eat italian till dunnoe when... haha anw had a v nice time catching up esp with daniel as i have not seen him since like wad? jc ah? haha yeah he is as funny as ever, oways like to act out senarios and telling us cok things that happened to him like for eg, bout some arts 'gay' that wanna pick him up... wahha super duper funny!!! and yup saw xiaoying there and jeremy hong again(!), with e 1st time oso being on e day i went munchie monkey (yucks i am so sick of e place!!! ARGHZ!!!).

after that i went for my jap lesson, getting e notes, books and cd for jap. many ppl i noe taking oso, peiling(oh i love her red hair!!!), siqiao, isaac yeo and possibly flora? (felt i saw her... haha) very interesting, 1st time attending a language mod lect... but yes can feel it's gonna be a little tough if i dun put in effort.

rushed over to my film class afterthat. haha 1 thing bout taking mods alone is that i am less distracted from the actual lecture because i'm not with any1 familiar and i feel i dun need to worry bout how others look at me as i'm not with any1 familiar. anyhow, film was super entertaining as the lecturer, a/p ryan bishop, is very funny and animated. so funny!!! haha i anticipate i will enjoy his lectures a lot for the rest of the sem. he told us he just required us to think only for this course, no memorising or anything of that sort. just THINK!!! cool!!! one thing about some arts mods, i feel is that there is this freedom of learning things that are really interesting. i mean compared with CS mods, i seriously doubt any CS mod will be that interesting and something that we can see so clearly in our daily life. haha so yes, film is the highlight of my week~ and i like the fact that i am rushing to my classes (since i'm taking it alone)... makes me feel as if i am really in control of how i want my life to be. instead of like taking the same mods as all my frens and like just follow them to the same classes. i guess i like the freedom.

however, taking modules alone is also a little daunting at times. like for eg yesterday. had cs2104 1st thing in e afternoon and ok, i do noe some frens who r taking this mod but they already have other ppl taking with them so like yeah not 'that close'. so it's like i went to the lecture without even bringing any notes cos i forgot to check the course website. it just did not occur in my mind that i shd check it cos usually ivle is quite sufficient already. yeah so got a shock when i saw roger n linda with notes. anyhow roger lent me his. the 1st part of the lecture was like freaking boring haha was like virtually screaming 'help!' haha kept yawning. but things actually got better after the break. cos it was all very basic stuff. like taking cs1101 all over again except it's in Oz. yeah so overall 04 was not as bad as i had anticipated cos i was like dreading it when i got out of my house. oh yes i was also eating lunch all by myself before the lecture cos i din noe any1 who would be eating lunch oso at that time so yeah haha quite loner later on had cs2301 and e lecture was packed with so many familiar faces. very distracting i can tell u!!! that really proves my point about taking lectures with ur frens and end up getting so distracted u dun even bother listening to the lecturer. ok i got listen but only most of the bits, just wished i had really paid full attention, at least give some respect la, since the lecturer is not like some boring lecturer haha.

midweek already and many things are starting to pile~ wow! haha i am excited bout the work actually, i really feel the need to really put in effort for this sem as i really cannot stand the feeling of like as if i din put my best effort for my exams. it just totally sucks and i feel so irritated. every mark counts!!! hope this motivation lasts even as the tough gets going.

tmr gonna have ktv with min and jianyin (haven't seen this girl for so long! ^^). and later is dinner with the SLC gang, we're gonna celebrate rash's bdae, the actual day is on fri. i love this grp!!!

something that's been on my mind for a while already

Posted by gErRiNiC at 01:10 AM on January 13, 2005.

sometimes i kind of wonder how come, esp amongst ppl our age, some people can just so easily give up on their r/s? possibly just taking the easy way out of things? just say,'oh our expectations of how a r/s shd b like r so diff.' haiz i just wonder y it is likedat.

recently, i kind of feel like when most ppl, who were previously unattached, come to a marriagable age, they kind of just try to look for some1 they deem suitable and settle down within the 1st 2 years, and possibly spend e rest of their lives learning how to love the person (unless until divorce strikes them). it sounds as if the time has come to get married and forced them into this situation. previously, when they had all the time in the world to get to know someone that they really had interest in and yet decide to just take the easy way out just because things did not turn out too rosy. i mean it just doesn't seem logical. ok, it might seem logical at that point in time to say, yeah we r not suitable so we should not be together. but it just does not make much sense (in the long run) when later in the future, u just settle for the person you think is right just cos of external factors, it's like u r pushed to get married when this person might just not appeal to you that much in the 1st place. it's as if you set your heart to do something. is it only thru this then you can actually learn to love some1? only when there is no time? it kind of reminds me bout ppl who r at the brink of death, only when it comes to that point, they start to feel they should forgive those whom they have been having a grudge against and actually love those around them and treat them well.

so possibly it is true that the person you end up with might not be the one you love the most or love you the most, but it is the one that is most suitable for you because both of you actually learn to fall in love with eact other and get along with each other? you just decide since you made this committment of marriage, you should really just make it all worthwhile. it's like this is so different from our parents' time, i feel. in our parents' time, there are really people who are married to their 1st love. the one and only person that they have ever liked all along from the very start and their 1st and only bf/gf. i mean like this is so 'WOW!!!' and find it hard (or i dare say virtually impossible) to find in this age, time and context.

and now the song that has got me all into this whole issue and feel that every1 just yearns for that forever love:

Forever Love - 王力宏

愛你 不是因為你的美而已
我越來越愛你 每個眼神觸動我的心
因為你讓我看見Forever 才了解自己
未來這些日子 要好好珍惜
愛我 有些痛楚 有些不公平
如果真的愛我 不是理所當然的決定
感到妳的呼吸在我耳邊 像微風神奇
溫柔的安撫 我的不安定
所以我~要 每天研究你的笑容 Ooh 多麼自然

※ Forever love Forever love 我只想用我這一輩子去愛你
從今以後 你會是所有 幸福的理由 ※

愛情是場最美最遠的旅行
沿途雨季泥濘 偶爾阻礙我們的前進
感到妳的體溫在我懷裡 像陽光和煦
巧妙的融化 我的不安定
不可思議 證明我愛你的理由 Ooh 多麼自然
Repeat ※

妳感動的眼睛 我沉默的聲音
彷彿就是最好的證明
就讓我在說一次 I love you oh (直到永遠
Repeat ※

Forever Love Forever Love Forever Love

Posted by gErRiNiC at 03:55 PM on January 21, 2005.

been quiet for a while... hrm... actually dis week has been quite oright i guess... just some minor happenings... haha

had fish n co on wed!!! FINALLY!!! after like since dunnoe when... haha been craving for so long already. and i had a cute date... haha

went for e NUSSU PRU bash yesterday... must say it's a super duper disappointment... tho with a few minor surprises. k my grp hor, e dinner kinda screwed up and i spent most of my time with shujun, euric, wenshen and gy. but i must say, e place is very cool, probably e best interiorly designed club i've been to (tho i've only been to 5)? just that THE MUSIC SUCKED BIG TIME!!! so off man... when we were sitting down they played great songs, when we were on e dance floor, they played horrible 'never hear b4 songs'. r & b is just not for me... guess i'd appreciate mambo more from now on... oh but shujun is damn lucky, won 2nd prize for the lucky draw and they believed her when she said her ticket was in her bag which was deposited at e baggage counter!!! cool!!! but her air purifier was stolen... stupid shit thief! haha saw many ppl there. haha jw almost came also if not for e freaking long queue. would have been quite an interesting situation if we actually met there. i met jasmine downstairs at e lobby area where she was queuing... man~ dunnoe when will be the next time that i will ever see her again wish her all e best.
