Nineteen Months.
(:
I have a warped idea to spend it away from home.
It’s nice to have an eclipse of what’s to come, for now, with baited breath, wait for it to take form.
 [edit]
All the goodness of green tea w/cream frapp, sashimi and beef overload, and shopping. The examinations seem to have taken a back seat, for [...]

Almost-Crisis

27Jan08

Under a hundred strewn papers, a couple of crushed mind maps and a varied appetite between nothing and anything, a thousand thoughts led me straight right back to you.
Within a span of minutes, I took in the sunshine and left brooding behind.
It’d get better. The examination stress is just a passing phase, and it is [...]

Peasant

26Jan08

Perhaps there is more than an additional $500 a month, being a public transport commuter and being bossed around for the months of Feb 11 – Apr 12.
23 – 26 Jan:

Going broke from on-line shopping (think of the many registered parcels)

Liquid diet and fruit juice for minimal snacking or napping distractions

Dancing to no music

Watching cooking [...]

Exam Period

24Jan08

Part of all the jazz is aching feet, diminishing eye-bags, umpteen shopping bags, coffee rebound, walking for miles in new 4-inches heels that bite, bright lights, motion illness, canned-food-like train ride, boys and jokes, psp daze, chronic back-ache, wrapping paper, buying gifts, giving gifts, ignoring the weighing scale, ignoring breakfast, liquid meals, doing origami in [...]

Wee Hours Start

22Jan08

Bubble bath at 3, vanishing soap suds, power jet showers sprays, billowy tank top in wind, hot green tea, flustered feel, paper stacks, paper cuts, freezing temperature, ink refills, magazine glee, spam shampoo spam, chicken rice ugh, bak kua ah gua, nose peel, chinese checkers, loose braids …
Out of my wits, I am counting hours.

Give Shoes and Cars, not Shooting Stars

20Jan08

 It has been a bum-style week, with the odd episodes like scooting off to school for mundane presentation of PowerPoint slides and self, or euphoric dinners. Just when the euphoria starts to dissipate, into mere nothingness, the feared dread looms and casts a hovering shadow that seems to vacuum all energy thoughts.

Chase Colours

17Jan08

With all the tests and presentations completed, there are the four major examinations left to tackle. Besides the harsh fact that change and time are inevitable constants that force everything to pick up pace and speed along, tomorrow is the meeting with the ITP mentors. Much as I determine it as a meat-parade, I am rather psyched [...]

Red Sky in the Morning

14Jan08

Grabbed a mug, throw ice.
(Caffeine would kill, MILO courtesy of Ros)

Reading the newspaper and magazines, at the same time.
(think: left hand mug, right hand flipping pages/making dog-ears on the magazine)

Watching TV News, and Gossip Girl ep 13 (again!).
(Chuck Bass/Suharto’s organs – bad combo)

Doodling on UCCD notes.
(30% test at 10.50am. S.H.O.O.T.)

Having mini-heart-skips for acing at French.
(Oral was crap)

Suffering from [...]

Stress

14Jan08

Like a poison, slowly it seeps, quickly it drains. Slowly but surely, nothingness becomes more than this, but not far from where it all began.
