Hello & A Merry Christmas. Saturday, December 25, 2010

There are the randomest people in the world. Some obviously have decided to grace this blog with their presence. No offense, but its really kinda random to me.


Holidays are coming to an end soon. Sigh, the start of another epic "hard core" semester in med school looms in the very coming future.
Taiwan was fun. 8 days of good food. Good, epically fattening food. We're talking night market food every alternate days. I know I'm a partial "banana", but it's kinda cool that suddenly in Taiwan, my mandarin and hokkien improved..dramatically. Haha. I think it degraded by now.

Ah, I miss a lot of people in life. Sigh, sad how much just one year with them can bond people so much. It's sad that it could only be for one year. I miss you, Sydney buddies. *sniff*

Christmas. Nothing much. Anyways, Merry Christmas World :)


Dropping by to say "Hello World". ~Mel

*Blows dust away* Wednesday, November 24, 2010

So yeap, virtual cobwebs have been collecting on this blog. Haha, it doesn't matter if I'm the only one who reads this, I'm prefectly content :)


Anyways, yea, I'm on break now from my hectic life of a med student. When I said before to a friend that GETTING into med school is the most difficult part of Medicine as compared to life when already IN med school, I must have delusional back then. Because, warning people, that is complete bullshit. Well, if you're in IMU anyway. Life in med school...well, its comparable to being stuck in a pool of diarrhoea.

Onto other matters...

I know Taylor Swift has the majority of the world rooting for her and supporting her and being in love with her and her wonderfully honest songs.

Well, I'm not saying that I'm a hater. I don't hate her. That would be too strong a word.
But I have a problem with her wonderfully honest songs. I mean yea sure, songwriters who use personal experiences make good song writers. But not when they go overboard with it like she did. Seriously, she basically used every single relationship that she had and turned it into a tune. The worst part for me is that everyone knows who she's singing about. Really, if she wanted the whole world to know about her life, why not just call a paparazzi up and I'm sure they'll be pleased to jot every word that comes out down.

To me, it feels like she's just using it...
1. To gain attention. Hello, didn't the media and entertainment industry have a field day when they heard her songs and read her lyrics? I mean, "Dear John"? Subtle much. It's basically saying, "Hello world. Buy my album and listen to me bitch about everybody who is a somebody."

2. The poor people that she's singing about! I mean, it's a total invasion of privacy! For argument sake, say I'm a dude and I dated her, and she ends up writing a song about me after we broke up, whether it's a positive song or a bad one about me regardless, to me, I'll be so annoyed. Relationships are meant to be private. Especially since the relationship has ended, it would be like, "Hey, wth, why are you telling the whole world about us? Who gave you the right to broadcast everything between us?"

3. Does she want another relationship in life? Or is she just planning to die alone? The way I see it, and I quote Beyonce again, if I were a boy, I would not date her (not saying that she would want to date me, but this is for argument sake). It's basically like dating one of those paparazzi people or dating one of those whores who'll leak out your relationship to the whole entire world. To me, thanks but no thanks.

4. Either it's no relationship or relationships based on sympathy. "Oh, poor girl, she had such bad relationships. No matter, I'll be the knight in shining armor. I won't break your fragile heart." Yea, then after the breakup with probably her ending the relationship, she'll write you a sorry song. Yes! New song for the new album!

Obviously she doesn't feel the way I do or she won't be writing those songs. One or two, fine. An ENTIRE album (even if it's not an entire album, it's a LOT of songs)? You've crossed the line.

Of Immaturity, Lies, Self-Obsession & Insincerity. Wednesday, September 08, 2010

Another update, another rant.


Immaturity. How on earth can someone be that immature? Seriously. If a girl hangs out along with a guy, does that mean that they're together? Hello, which era are you living in? The freaking stone age? And I'm sorry but dear Mr. Hypocritical, apparently I'M not the only person spending time alone with a member of the opposite sex. Looked in the mirror recently? How about reflecting your own life and actions before tossing such a ridiculous comment?

Lies Lies Lies. Brilliant, aren't they? Another sign of the lack of maturity. What exactly is the point in lying about something that I truly don't give a damn about? As if the truth is a big deal. Please, as if your life is that fan-freaking-tastic that I should really care that much about the truths of your life and judge you for it.

Self-absorbed, selfish, self-centered, self-obsessed. These are the words to describe you. I'm sure you must feel flattered at having so many words to describe yourself. But really, do you really think that THAT is more important than anything else in my life? Just because you seem to be lacking a life of your own does not mean that everyone else is sharing the same sad pathetic dilemma as you. For the rest of us more normal people who lead normal lives and who have normal packed schedules, THAT is not top priority in our lists. On the contrary, THAT is nowhere near our lists. Because, our lives do not revolve around THAT. Because woe is the world, when our lives begin to revolve around THAT.
I do my job well and I know it. So shoving me compliments after THAT will not change my opinion of you. It is going to take way more than just words and flattery. Haven't you heard? Flattery gets you nowhere. And in my case, I know that flattery was only used because of the success that THAT has become. Insincerity, I dislike.
And I mean this sincerely.

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..
