Judging Me, Judging You. Friday, August 20, 2010

Apparently, people do read my blog! Haha! Okay, due to the little jibes (hint: Jit Tong, and Shu Yen, who really should update this blog too, you co-blogger -.- ) I've gotten for NOT updating the blog as frequently as I should, so I'm gonna update when I can, okay?


So what's new?

1. My Hair? Haha..



Actually that's pretty much it la.

The thing is I keep telling myself that I really need to get my super-nerd-SPM-times mode on, but it just doesn't want to click on. I dunno, that's really bad i know, considering this is the sem that I need to be really serious, plus my previous sem results weren't that good either. So yea..

And the thing is I keep telling myself not to be judgmental. I do stop myself from being that in certain cases, but there are just some, obviously I'm not gonna mention which cases, though if you ask me personally, I might tell you, depending on who thou are.

But yea, I think it's the human mind, to just make immediate assumptions. It's like before you can stop yourself, the thought just pops into your mind. And stays there too most of the time. So how? At most, I think all we can do is to keep telling ourselves, "okay la, stop being so judgmental." and try, I put emphasis on the try to dispel such thoughts from our minds.

On another note, drama is fascinating isn't it? When our own lives lack it, we watch it. Some create it. Some just can't live without it. Haha. Drama is like fire - combustible, burns you and the people around you sometimes, but yet, still needed in life.
Though I really don't want drama or my life to be happening. Dude, if you're reading this (which I highly doubt, haha), "eh, I like sad unhappening life la. Stop creating unnecessary drama involving me la. As if your own life not scandalous enough." *tsk tsk jun xian*

Even so. Wednesday, July 14, 2010

So the dental timetable and pbl grouping is out. So where is med's?? I tell you, super inefficient. I need to plan my holidays! Meh.


Had a day out with a few of my uni friends today, including teng huei to celebrate Jon Chen's birthday. It was fun actually. And..teng huei and I bumped into the elusive Tan Shi Yee and Ng Pooi Cheng.

It only occurred to us then that the only time the group of us met up was the last day of SPM. That was almost 2 years ago. And THAT makes me feel old. It's not so much the aging process that I'm talking about. It's more of a fact that all of us have moved on so much. No matter what one says about the other (I'm talking cryptic so if you don't get me, it's fine.) it still feels good to finally meet up with old friends from the past. There's this warm fuzzy feeling to just meet up. To just talk.

You know you love me. Saturday, July 03, 2010

"Your one and only source to the scandalous lives of Manhattan's elite.."


Yes, if those words sound familiar to you then you would understand that I am on a Gossip Girl marathon these days. Can't help it. No matter how shallow the show is, the drama and the fact that the show is filled with drama and beautiful people with beautiful clothes make the show unresistable to me. Hehe..so awesome.





Chuck and Blair need to be together and the fact that it took them sooo long to actually be together is a pain in the ass.

Jenny Humphrey wears far too much makeup for what, a 16 year old.

~

On a more normal-non fictional basis, I realised that sluts are found everywhere! hahaha..no seriously..haha..it's not that i have anything personally against them, it's just that some of the things they do make me cringe. Like dancing with your legs wide open with squatting and all that when your skirt is super short. Well, maybe the guys would like it, but still, self-dignity anyone?

Haha..

Smell it. Thursday, June 24, 2010

Yea, you smell that? It's the smell of fresh freedom. :) (just imagine a big huge cheesy grin)

I am officially a sem 2 student! And frankly, even if noone reads this blog (apart from xiang jiek, thanks dude), there is an absolute need for me to announce that fact. Considering the fact that even a half a year step closer to me actually graduating as a general practitioner is brilliant. Think about it, it's such a loooong way to go that just a step, albeit a small one, is a big thing.

Plus, there's the possibility of not actually being able to make it till the end. That's a scary thought but the possibility still looms somewhere far far in the dark corner of that bright money-making future. So yea, being absolutely proud of every step is necessary. After all, celebrate the moment I say.

I am in such a bubbly happy happy mood.

Ooh..but the fact that people never believe that I slack is one annoying pain in the gluteus maximus. I mean, come on, EVERYONE slacks. To think that they would actually think that I bother lying about not nerding? What's the point? Just don't get those people. It gets pretty exasperating after constantly trying to convince them.

But..not today to rant. Because..I am in such a bubbly happy happy mood.
*cue big cheesy smile*

I'm feeling philosophical so shut it. Sunday, May 30, 2010

Why hello world.

It's been ages since anyone posted anything on this blog. So I won't be surprised if noone ever checks here again but heck.

Uni life is..hectic. That is to put it mildly. Studying just saps the life out of you. Like today, I felt so frustrated just sitting there and staring at my notes.

Anyway, on to more "deep" issues.

Dieting. I know, who cares if you look fat right? But that's the thing. People DO care. I mean, I have guy friends who go around asking, why do you even diet? Think about it dudes. Given a choice of a chubby/fat girl or a relatively skinny girl, which one would you more likely give a damn about?
Females diet because it's been ingrained into our minds that we have to look thin, to look hot, to look size 2. Even if we are totally comfortable with our bodies, we still feel the need to stay slim. I mean, if guys hadn't shown their preferences to slim women, we wouldn't even have bothered. (Let's leave the health issue out of this for now? :) ) Now IF men had preferred chubby women then all of us wouldn't have needed to think about staying slim, right? Wouldn't that be just awesome to be able to down all those lovely calories?

But anyway, luckily for us girls, we have begun to take a stand in this whole image issue. Now, we have our own demands too. Haha..guys must have relatively buff fit bodies..etc., hey, the list goes on for them too.

Well, it's a materialistic, shallow world we live in and who do we blame for this but ourselves?
After all, we're the ones who set the standards and the markers.
And I'm not complaining, I have no reason to. I'm just stating it like it is.

Wednesday, February 03, 2010

Ok i've been inactive for.. a few months now therefore, this post is gonna be long but Mel insists i write something on the blog haha so here goesss..

I'm officially a Uni student woohoo! Feels goood, but a little weird. Time is flying by too fast. It seems like only yesterday when we were terrified of SPM, and that happened 2 years ago! I still feel as though we're little kids sometimes.. what with all the nonsensical nonsense that we do!
Pictorial evidence will be revealed when i leave this country where no one can get me hehe (well at least until my next break anyway XD)

So far holidays have been great! First day i got back. Phil asked to go mamak cos he was starving. i thought it would only be a few of us and it wouldnt be that bad if i came a few minutes late. so i took a little nap. little did i know the guys went and called quite a lot of people who were supposed to surprise me. well.. surprise! i didnt make it cos i never woke up hahaha! I still appreciate the gesture though.

Next day, met up with the guys at one of our fav hangout spots, Station 1 Cafe. Which is also most famous for our (what jay refers to as) super LOL sessions. The foundation of a lot of teasing and inside jokes were mostly established there. Lots of memories! Pictures will be uploaded.. soon!

Also, we've been K'ing a LOT. Especially at Neway where we got scammed.. blaaardy. Only reason we still go there is for convenience and because it is the best place to relieve stress.

Went for bah kut teh 3 times in a single week with ex-lethians! Such a healthy bunch, aren't we? haha. Seeing as there was limited time to spend with the primary people from UK, Singapore and US, sacrifices were made.. i think i accomplished a record of most times in a row i've woken up so early ever during any holiday! Whether it was for tennis, gym, bkt, roti canai, kopitiam, ac, or simply to hang out at one of the many mega-malls in klang valley. In any case, it was still worth it since their holidays were so short =)

New Years Eve at Kyle house was really fun. Enjoyed the snow fight after countdown! Beats getting stuck in a 3 hour jam up and then another 3 hour jam down if we were to travel to Curve or KL.
New Years Eve before we went to Kyle's house? Not so much. Naturally.. our plan backfired. i still think it was sign from god telling us it was a bad bad idea especially on new years eve hahah!

Still.. gotta say I enjoyed my birthday the most! Particularly cause it felt really good sharing it with most of the ex-mates (both lethia and acmar). From start to end, to the day after. thanks to everyone who could make the dinner and also to those who wished me but couldnt make it =). It was nice to see we could still naturally click and crack up as though we never left school.

Of course.. the REAL FUN only started when we got to my house. and most of you know WHY! hehehehehe.. Ran out of alcohol unexpectedly fast. Shows how high we were which also explains how all the madness came about Lol! Due to the pact we made, too bad it cant be elaborated further. the rest i leave to your imagination hahahahah! I'm so glad none of the neighbours heard much of the noise we were making.. or reunion family dinners would be quite interesting with me having to explain myself!

Anyways few of em' slept over and we counted down to Sean's birthday! He was the first to KO due to exhaustion. Spent most of the next day at Pyramid and the night, steamboat, Sean's treat, then to Sean's house for his bday celebration & strip poker session!

Surprised Sam on her birthday, twice in a row. We had cze speed us up all cramped up in her myvi haha! And sam.. since u say you're gonna be ready next year, dont bother cos we'll just conjure up another plan hehe! Went to AC to meet her for lunch then back to JJ for bubble tea and a trip back to memory lane.

Mostly, we spend our time in btw. with tons of kopitiam, mamak, pool, bowling, arcade, malls, basically spending hours in gibberish conversations, the usual. Now, the last week before i go back to Aus.. and its getting really interesting >) Will update further.. soon. And.. i just noticed its 3 and i was supposed to be asleep 2 hours ago so Cze and Sean can wake me up for bkt in the morning XD!!! crap.. Ciao!!
