I think Im getting used to it. The smell of charred ashes. The easy going people around me. Crazy crowd. Busy people. Comfortable seat. Ongoing Promotions.

Rain splattered on my face,
the morning freshness with a smell so faint.
I started out trying to keep pace,
finding a route that will cause less pain.
Small gestures that warmed up my cold morning.

If you ever feel that you need to be better than everyone else, please do the following.
Instead of putting down others and naming them as self-centered creatures, why not say that you are the selfless one always ready to sacrifice for others? In that way, others are still plain ordinary while you become extraordinary. Set us ordinary folks as the yardstick and be better by shining through your qualities. Never make us worse off or degrade our values just to bring across the point that you are in fact, much much better than the ordinary.
Got that? Now start applying this. Circumstances have been harsh on you. However, while your contributions stay laudable, Im still just the ordinary girl in the world, behaving in an ordinary way. Note that.

Ive chanced upon some quotes that males have written with love and relationship as the issue.
It is fairly interesting. If you have the sentiments, you will laugh after you read them. Some quotes radiate prejudices against women. Don't worry ladies, I will address that later (:
1. When a man steals your wife, there is no better revenge than to let him keep her.
---David Bissonette
2. After marriage, husband and wife become two sides of a coin; they just can't face each other, but still they stay together.
---Sacha Guitry
3. By all means marry. If you get a good wife, you'll be happy..if you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.
---Socrates
4. Woman inspires us to great things, and prevent us from achieving them.
---Anonymous
5. I had some words with my wife, and she had paragraphs with me.
---Sigmund Freud
6. I've had bad luck with both my wives--The first one left me, and the second one didn't.
---James Holt Maltana
7. Two secrets to keep your marriage brimming.
1) Whenever you are wrong, admit it.
2) Whenever you are right, shut up.
---Patrick Murra
8. The most effective way to remember your wife's birthday is to forget it once...
---Nash
9.You know what I did before I married? Anything I wanted to.
---Anonymous
10. A good wife always forgive her husband when she is wrong.
---Rodney Dangerfield
11. There's a way of transferring funds that is even faster then electronic banking. It's called marriage.
---Sam Kinison
OKAY! Most of you will know that Im more of a feminist..so I had my own response to the above quotes to justify the behaviour and mindset of women. You have to hear both sides to be unbiased, correct? Here goes...
1. When a man cheats, forgive him. It wouldn't be the last anyway.
If not, 1) Leave him (option viable when childless)
2) Don't kick up a fuss, shut your eyes forever (With child)
2.I agree to this quote as it is unbiased and my favourite thus far. I cant help but smile even though I read it umpteen times.
3. By all means marry. If you get a good husband, you'll be happy..If you get a bad one, remember to voice out. you have NOTHING to lose anyway.
4. Man gets inspired easily by lofty ideas. Unlike us, they don't have a logical plan to achieve it.
5. We listened, men never do.
6. For a man as such, I will say that the first wife's great escape is laudable.
7. Comments 1) Thanks for admitting, but we know you don't mean it all the time.
2) Shut up and silently mock at women's "idiocracy" ?
8. We don't have problems remembering our husband's birthday. We only had problems trying to look more surprised than shocked at the presents you gave us.
9. Man wanted EVERYTHING except commitment.
10. A good husband always apologise mindlessly for things that he has never done.
11. To secure a man from taking flight, cripple not his legs but his finances.
*Phew* Okay (: That's my comments in response to the funny quotes.

A cloud of doubt shroudded my vision. Why was it so hard to acknowledge the fact that Im STILL not in school studying the time away? Yes, it is a fact. The unbearable truth, almost disgracing to a certain degree. All people live their lives differently. You cannot compare lives using a yardstick. Right, I got that one. However, we are humans arent we. Apart from erring, comparing is the next right to our name. Oh no, the inescapable period of life. I cant help but lapse momentarily into a square box thinking. Gosh, like walking barefooted on hot, burning coals. Memories did their flashback at my expense. Some vivid, some oft faint and confusing. Some being forced to the neatest corner of my mind. Belch. Purge. Try to fit in and make it work. Difficult. It seems like the last piece of jig-saw puzzle that Im holding on can never fit in to complete the picture.

Long awaited. Torn between decisions. More to reveal and more to be undisclosed. How far am I willing to share with some and how much am I going to conceal? Im contented with what I have now. Who should know? There are no such thing as secret in the world unless you bury yourself with it..
Yays!! Now i have street jazz classes from next Monday onwards. Ive been wanting to get that musicality back in me. Hope everyone and everything Ive left behind are well. Hopefully.
I want the Internet accessssssssss!!!!!!

Tomorrow will be the final verdict. I hope she can just laugh it off. I dont think she will expect that I will pull off such a thing.
However, never underestimate what a kid can do!

Deafening music,
Thousands of stares.
Looming darkness,
Go on -- Dance with your flair.
Excitement that comes with responsibility.
Branded friends make you lose that sensibility.
People streamed in,
Snugged up close to your body.
Tingling sensation.
You will get used to it.
You will get used to.
You will get used.

Oh yes. I ought to be shot. I have left this blog so dead. So many new happenings had left me feeling extremely lethargic. It was a pity that blogging did not come in as my first, second or third priority. So once I get busy..this blog has starved to death before I could feed it again. Nevertheless, I hope this long post can gorge you awake dear blog!
The irregular working hours seem to have miraculous aging effect. I would have aged tens years or more without the help of my beauty regime. However, to report to work at 9am daily is a perk as I get to take the train from the extreme end before travelling (: I'm relieved that this whole treatment will end pretty soon while I will get a stable contract, not just a verbal one. Now I just hope that the value can be negotiable.
People come and go so I shall take things in my stride. The super mighty colleagues have all taken their flight. Although Im glad because they have left for better pastures, but still, work will never be the same without them. Take everything but let me keep the warmth.
Have university been enjoyable for you all, my friends? Some enjoyed their new life very well, while some did not. Iris, call me or msg me when you need me okay (: Wanny, it's okay for them to club as long as you don't go. No worries (: I hope Chengy is happily settled in NUS. I know she will be as Jaime and Shey will be with her (:
As for me, I guess Ive already found my way of life. Time goes past so quickly that I have not been noticing the malice of reality. I have a new set of friends from more activities that Ive taken up. Apart from Cas who has been keeping me company(thank god) and also brought me to another good friend, 얀지. She is coming to Spore very soon and Im all ready to plan out a tour just for her. Food, culture, shopping haven! Yays!
Oh okay. I think I better prepare my Korean homework now for tomorrow. I always leave 문장 만들기 for the last as I tend to forget what I have written! 잘자요 (:

Arghhhh.. blogger is soo soo slow!! wanted to upload the pictures of lovely 29/06/2009. The day i got my most number of shock-prises!! Cindyyyy!! How can you leave just like that?! Enjoyed the days with you when we were just talking, debating and exchanging pointers on human issues. Im glad that you have found a better prospect in life and I do sincerely wish you all the best! We should meet on another day to talk about the discoveries Ive made(:
Twists and turns. Cheng and I were both shocked too. Splendid meal that took us off guard. News that was fed we could hardly contain. It struck me that I do not know what will happen in the near future. Soon, Chengy will not be working with me too. Brace yourself up and spines up. Not to that extent though.
The similarity of the new and old is uncanny. Insecured. Materialistic. Guarded. Obscure. The first time I felt as though I was speaking and being in a different dimension when time is not a constant. You do not have to know me, but I do not want to know what you are. The ugliness of human nature erodes the carefree spirit.

Exhausted. Finally I have completed my breast stroke course. Today I learnt the free style strokes. My first attempt at it and my swimming coach was very amazed by my strokes. He thought I have learnt free style before (: Delighted as I am a good imitator(actions, speech) and so I can learn fast I guess. The strokes are harder and you will feel as though your arms and especially your legs are tearing apart. Definitely more difficult than breast stroke. I think I am more or less keeping myself occupied with work and lesson. the meeting today was flat..i think throughout the conference, i was just slouching in my comfortable chair(playing with the side levers) and gorging myself fat with the food provided.
I am THIS EXCITED for my Korean Class that is starting this Sunday!! YAYYY!!

Now what. Time seems to stop for me and yet go double quick-time for the rest of my peers. It feels like a hop-scotch game whereby i have reached the end, but lost my balance on my way back. That's it. Now you have to wait for others to go and perhaps hopefully lose their balance so that you can have your next go at it. Meanwhile, I just stand there and watch the others play the game. You know that there is nothing sore about it. You know you can jolly well walk away and entertain yourself with five stones or a cheap 15cents syrup drink. Yes, I cannot stop and stand around. I should go and take a walk in the garden. By the time I'm done with other things, it will be my turn again...
my little analogy for my situation now(: pardon me if you cannot understand. But who really can? I mean, people sympathize me because i cant make it to universities?? My grades were ACDBD and im the bunch of weevils that falls through the sieve. A neither here nor there grades that cannot make it to NUS or NTU. Didnt have the brain to sign up for SIM etc.. Now all doors are closed. Am I okay with the decision?? What else can I do?
