You can learn many things from children. How much patience you have, for instance.

HOW CAN STICKING OUT MY TONGUE BE RUDE?

it's so funny. hAas.

rain



the weather's been unpredictable.
one moment sunny another stormy.
my mood's fluctuating too.
cant seem to get started on anything.
n i feel so lazy ive been skipping my lectures.

not good.

and it doesnt help tt at this exact moment im sneezing non-stop.
*cut off the nose*

but i like rain.
light showers and wet puddles.
dressed in a raincoat, red wellingtons.
i imagine seeing old couples strolling hand in hand under a brolly.
how sweet. =)
the rain brings pple closer together.
distances are minimised when the crowds share the same shelter at a bus stop.
brollys add colours to otherwise dull streets.
couples huddle closer together in warmth.

and cos of the rain, sunshine always seems so bright.
the trees are greener and even buildings glisten from the water.
and i lurve rainbows. =)
and also how the rain always manages to hide the tears.

could i have

*a big yawnx*

AND they dun ship a lot of stuff here.

i wan ^^



i wish i could have some time.



a little get-away.

where skies are always blue n fields are always endless.

mask the truths

it's raining. im sleepy. but happy. hee. if onli i could i would go out n skip in the rain.

this interesting excerpt from a mag made mi laugh. it should tickle u too.

a few BIG FAT LIES we tell ourselves.

Lie 1 "everything would be great if i lost weight/quit my job/got a boyfriend,etc"

No, everything would be just like now, except that you'd weigh less, be unemployed or have someone to watch Lost with - and there's a chance u'd be complaining about something new.
Happiness comes from within, so appreaciate the good things that are in your life now. like ben n jerry's, my quirky family n friends and everything coloured red. lol.
and this gives me another good reason to never ever diet in my life. hee.

Lie 2 "they'll never noe i lied"

Even if u dun get caught and life goes on, it's not quite the same. funny how lying makes u think everyone else is too. so nex time when i say "ur dress is horrid", stop giving mi tt offensive stare and embrace the truth. =D

Lie 3 "Some people are lucky. (im not one of them)"

This lie undermines your power to control your destiny - and to claim credit when good things come ur way. Cos the more you believe in luck, the less u believe in urself.
i kinda dun believe in neither. so how?

Lie4 "i dun need any help"

Denying that you need emotional support may feel like independence, but it's often a lie that protects you from revealing vulnerability. and nothing makes friends faster than vulnerability.
to my FRIENDS - so next time i whim and complain, you'd better not run away.

Lie 5 "if i had the time, i'd...write a book/exercise more etc. "

you're busy. im busy. is lack of time a handy excuse for not doing thing u really want to, but deep dwn u're afraid of failing at? Stop talking about it and just do it!
sounds like nike to me.
i'll heed this - but i'd probably settle for simpler tasks like "i'll go straight to bed NOW n sleep for 12 hours" or "im gonna eat ice cream forever" and do it.

on a random note.
ever ever after by carrie underwood is awesome.
dun u jus lurve fairy tale endings?
i do. =)

everydalies =)



unglam shot of the drunk-not-me. tsktsk. doughnut king.

toa payoh vs. dhoby ghuat.

*omg*

i haven the faintiest idea about comparing ridiculous authors who string random words together to form poetry or books written for the sake of producing something politically correct and under the seemingly great name of "Singapore Literature".
*drums rolling*pause*applause*pause*okay, now the cue to stop*

eew. wad a fake showcase. jus shows how shallow our local writers are.

what's there for comparison. they're all equally crappy. lol.

anw i should start sourcing for jobs and internship now. i'd hope to find some production or publishing company. i wanna write articles. do copy-editing or be some back-stage crew at the set of theatrical performances. =D

maybe i'll do relief teaching. but tt's like only 1 mnth. =(
