Haven't decided to where yet though. I'm going to miss this place. It's been 168 entries, 1 year and 8 months ++.

I've grown so attached to this place. I love practically everything here, except for the damned google ads. They annoy the hell out of me. I'm nit-picked that way.

Til a later date..

MOVED 

Oh, for the love of god!

First the Cookie Monster, now Ronald Mc'Donald. Is health the new black?

I don't get it. I have nothing against being healthy. But pressuring puppets and clowns to get into this whole health kick is just wrong. Imagine, the Cookie Monster, not eating cookies. What should you call it now?

It bothers me a bit. What society do we live in really?

Are people are just looking for scapegoats for their own lack of will power? Nobody one is forcing you to have fast food for breakfast, lunch and dinner. You choose what you eat, so you're to blame. Not your food.

And isn't it all just a little oxymoron-ish.

Health is good. Of all people, I should know how important eating well and staying fit is. I have seen what not taking care of yourself can do to you.

But isn't educating people of the effects of an unhealthy life-style, and letting them decide what's best for themselves more important? We're not a society of lemmings nor are we programmed lambs. Afterall, this ain't no Matrix, no?

Distractions.

I can't seem to get myself to panic. My first paper is a mere 2 days away. I'm only halfway through the lecture notes. I'm supposed to be halfway through the second paper's lectures. Tsk tsk.

I'm so going to fail Formal Methods II. I know nuts, and I probably won't have enough time to go all of it.

I have a short term target. Tonight, I must finish all the lectures, even if I won't get to sleep. I must, must, must! I even bought new pens to motivate myself. *dances around with glee*


I miss the times when I have enough discpline to study by myself. In fact, those were the days when I could only study by myself. Now I'm like a primary school kid who needs her Mummy's supervision while doing homework, else I won't get anything done. Aigo!

Ah well. Will go back to work now. I have like, 9 more lectures to go?

You have to read this.

And try this.

You scored 100% Beginner, 100% Intermediate, 100% Advanced, and 80% Expert!

Uhh, it's mostly basic English lesson. Feels like I'm doing my primary 2 grammar book. Hehe.

I think I agree

Been catching up on blog reads tonight, when I should really be studying. I've been a bad bad girl today. Sulking like I'm sucking on a sour lemon the whole damn day. I hate my mood swings. And they're getting worse. I blame it on urm, that thing. I never knew side effects can be so prominient.

Read through Lainie's blog. I totally agree with her one this one. I usually hate grumpy people. I feel like they have so much angst, but, now I think.. it's really not bad at all, unless, urm, you have to face them everyday. Then you have to give them lemons so they have a proper reason to sulk. Wahaha.


There something I want to rant about rules and stuff. Too lazy to think and type now. Will get around it some time soon.

Clean up!

I deleted a couple of recent entries. I found them useless, and a little too whiney for my taste. Gone now. No more.


I basically slept the whole day besides the induction. Got up somewhere around 6am this morning. Had an appointment with a lovely mountain. Suited up nice and warm. A little too well prepared this time. Oops.

Anyway, we were just a bit late for the induction. But it's alright since there were a few just as late. We didn't miss much, except the beginning of a FISH video. Which is good I suppose, the video was repetitive enough for the half that I saw, imagine the whole thing.

Had lunch, then split into our respective departments. I applied for F&B, which includes bar work, kitchen help, as well as housekeeping. Walked through the work areas, briefed, and taught a few things I never knew.

I'm very interested in bar work. Seems tough, but it'll be alright. Unfortunately, I don't think I given a chance to have a go at it. If I do decide to stay in F&B, I definitely have to read up about spirits, liquers and the whatnots. Don't want to be the only one that goes huh? And I don't want to get stuck making coffee again. Though that's probably more my forte as of now.

I spoke to Stewart after the whole thing, asked him if I could change departments. To transfer to something outdoor. After the resort tour, I reliased that I'd be missing so much if I stay indoors. He gave me an o-k. So that's good.


Slept all the way back, just like the journey there. So what else is new right? Hehe. Came back to Clayton, and had dinner with sweetie at Sarawan. Finally tried their lamb biryani which wasn't too bad at all. Napped at sweetie's place after dinner. I'm beginning to think that it's a bad bad idea. I think I've got heart burn now. But then again, my tummy's been unwell lately.

Got home shortly after, and slept til now. I'm a pig. Getting distracted by the World Poker Tour on tv while blogging, when I should really be showering and studying. First paper is less than a week away. Should start getting chummy with my books now.

One more ass to kick!

Just got home like an hour ago. Starved. So I made noodles at wee hours in the morning, even if it would give me an extra inch on my already expanded waistline.

Anyway, I managed to get some rest after throwing up everything else in my stomach. Woke up at about 3pm, headed to Clayton town to get printer ink, and some whatnots.

Got a cake for Kev too. Unfortunately, we didn't know that Evan was already making something. I think the cake upset her quite a bit, poor girl. I swear I didn't know anything about it. Aish aish.

Went over about 6pm. Ate a bit, talked a bit. The rest bought him a miniature casino set. Quite cute I'd say.

We headed to Brunswick for a bite/coffee. Ended up at Bismi's, the place Pei Hsing recommended. Quite a surprise actually, cause I was telling sweetie about it, and we ended up there unexpectedly. We didn't eat there though, went back to Jeremy's place to chill.

And again, Crown was the destination. Sweetie played poker, and won a bit. Good on him. Crown haven't been too kind to him lately. I was kinda of a meanie at the end, cause I didn't let him play anymore. But urm, I didn't get a good vibe then. Hee.


Left her alone tonight, to let them talk things over. I realised how this situation can be misinteprated in so many ways. Well, as long as she's happy, I'm happy for her too. As long as hurt is not part of the menu.


Am watching Gilmore Girls now as I print out the past exam papers and lecture notes and assignment sheets. Oh, how I miss my Mommy. Damned printer, any slower, the paper would be going backwards.
