Hunger

So, I handed up the paper
and there i go....
I think i m a lil crazy liao....

Menghitung Money
Know the song "Menghitung Hari" by Kris Dayanti?

Following is the adaptation by 4 wonderful ladies: Chyi, Kee, Choo and Deb

Menghitung Money
Menghitung money
Keping demi keping
Kini semua money sudah lari
Tak ada money, macam mana ni?
Menghitung money...

Menghitung money
Keping demi keping
Banyak money bukan main happy
Adanya money, boleh shopping ni
Kan baik gini...

*chorus*
Pergi saja money ku pergi
Sudah bagi kepada semua
Biar semua tahu ku tiada money
Kini ku hidup sendiri...
Kini ku tak ada money

Menghitung money
Keping demi keping
Di mana akan ku dapat cari,
Money banyak ni, siapa nak bagi
Janganlah mimpi...

Time left to Inorganic Chemistry: 9 hours 55 minutes

Look Ahead
Today's paper was...
My friend is right
She say must look ahead
and not look behind at what you did

So, I shall not comment
on how my last paper was.
Anyway
Nothing much today
Other than rain
and Rain
and RAIN

But it is good
'Cos I prefer cooler temperature
This is just perfect
but not for study
drives my study mood away
as the surrounding air molecules
take heat energy away from my body

Nevermind. Shall sleeeeeep now
Muahahaha
How will tomorrow be?
Lets see....

What is Life?
What is Life?
Is Life all about
Adenine, Cytosine, Thymine, Uracil and Guanine?
Or is Life all about
Competition and Survival?

Is Life all about Examinations?
Is Life all about
Learning what is deemed as knowledge?
Acquiring what is deemed as skills?

What is Knowledge anyway?
What about Skills?
What is the point?

The answer is
Its not a matter of a point
For Life
is much more than a point

Life is all about
Spending the short time we have
Meaningfully
And this word
Meaningfully
Means a lot

Aih
What am I talking about
Anyone knows?
For one, I know
that I don't

吾究竟在干啥?

一慨不通
又一日
无缘无故地
就此蹉跎

试问

内心
居心到底何在
何在呀?


真的
厌恶了吗?
无心了吗?


此刻

无话可说
亦不知
欲说何话

心神

究竟是如何呢


虽已深

大地
也已熟睡多时

一切看似平静
可我的心

我的内心
却是起伏不定

砰砰 砰砰
如此的跳动着

此刻的我
睡意无疑有多重

这颗
无法平静的心

这颗
无法沉着的心

又为何
如此呢?

究竟是
莅临的考试

还是
内心的空虚

相信此谜
只有内心会解

Proven
Slept earlier last night
And it is proven
that I did not have enough rest
the previous night.

Now that I am more refreshed
What do I do?
Back and becoming once again
the Hardcore Mugging Monster

Off I go
to Medic Library
Will be back at night
*Evil grin*

What Happened
What happened in the past few days
That I did not write in any entry?
Simple
I have just been transformed
Into a Mugging Monster
a Hardcore Mugging Monster
who starts Mugging from early in the morning
until about 11pm
(which is the time my brain cells become supersaturated)
in the school library

What happens today?
Today the Hardcore Mugging Monster softens a little
Cos his nose is leaking
which is as usual
not mentioning that it had been gone for quite some time
its playback time!

So I slept
and slept and slept
not the whole day, only from 2pm to 5pm k
And now
back to some work

And my nose
is still leaking!!!!

P/S: For more info on the definition of Mugging, please refer to my post dated 21 April 2005. Thanks :)

13th Anniversary
Today
marks the 13th anniversary
of my family officially moving
from my hometown Kajang
to my current residence in Subang Jaya

14 November 1992
A meaningful day for my family
Though we don't really celebrate that
Just a date worth remembering

This is the house where I really grew up in
Actually on average
I stayed for almost equal durations
8 years in Kajang (yes I was born in Kajang)

For those who doesnt know about Kajang
It is a town located about 20km south of Kuala Lumpur
which once flourished out of tin-mining
and very famous for its Satay

In 1992, we moved to Subang Jaya
there I spent my pre-teen and teenage-hood
until I was then 15 in 1999
when I then came to Singapore on 26 Dec 1999

Now? This is currently the 6th year spent in Singapore
By the time I am free of bonds
(no, no.. not σ, π, nor δ bond, but financial bond)
I would have spent a total of 11 years in Singapore

By then, I would be 27 years old
41% of my total lifetime then would have spent
on this island called Singapore
Is all this fated?

Maybe; maybe not
Cos I have my plans
after I am free of bonds
Off I go

Most of my friends by now would know
But that's still tentative
It all depends
On opportunity and circumstances

How would I spend
the rest of my life?
I guess, no one knows
Only time will prove it

Of Exam and Hunger
Exams in a week!!!!
How to describe my feelings now
It is anxiety?
or is it panic?

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm
After a long 5-second thought (as I type out the Ms)
I draw towards a conclusion:
N.E.I.T.H.E.R
Somehow just lost feelings towards exams
Burned out after A levels?
Perhaps
Of all that I know,
The level of flame I had in 2003
is now looooooooooong gone...
Old liao la... haha

*Stomach growls*
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

An Interesting Signboard

Ever seen such signboards before?
Took it in the Tiergarten (Animal Garden) in the heart of Berlin.
which is just beside the Brandenburg Gate, and also the Reichstag (Parliament).

On the signboard it states:
Geschützte Grünanlage
(Protected Green Garden)
Betreten bei Schnee und Glätte auf eigene Gefahr!
(Step into it at your own risk, when there is snow or when it is slippery)

Special huh ;)

Have an enjoyable Birthday as you formally stepped into adulthood!

End of German Language Module...For This Sem
Today marked the end of my formal German language lessons for this semester.
Nonetheless there was a mean and wicked vocabulary test conducted during the lesson.
None of my lecturer nor my tutor, Frau Verry and Frau Walter-Schantz, both of whom are very excellent teachers, are teaching the subsequent-level module:
German for Academic Purposes, LAG3203.
Wonder who's teaching that subject tho'.
A side of me gasped for relieve
But another side of me feel very heavy hearted
Will miss the lessons very much
But now...
Time for NMR Spectroscopy and Transition Metal Chemistry
(Oh I might specialize in Inorganic Chemistry, but let's see how)
NMR still not that irritating, but Transition Metal Chemistry certainly is.
Since O level, have been wondering why are transition metal compounds coloured.
It turned out to be a whole series of deep and well-researched theory.
Producing a coloured compound is not as easy as one may think so.
It involves orbitals, movement of electrons, and how the orbitals are orientated towards each other, which results in differences in energy level mixings and stuffs..
Ahh... Before I get more confused,
Time to go ahead with Life...
Bye bye German III, LAG3201
5 more Modules to go
Fart over here! (放屁过来!)

Of Patience, JERCs and Being Strong
No use whining over what has happened
No use trying to shift the blame
For the blame
has already been casted
Explain?
Whats the point
No point doing that
Wasting time
and Adenosinetriphosphates
and Salivas
and Enzyme Amylases
and what-have-yous

I think the acronym JCRC** does not suit them
Should not be Junior Common Room Committee
but Junior Executive Room Committees
then, NUS would be a very interesting University
A so-called top-ranking world-class University
where in one of its Halls of Residences,
the people vote anually for a team
called JERCs in short
The JERCs are voted into power
The JERCs run as the highest authority
The JERCs will give instructions
for the people who voted for JERCs to follow
JERC members care more for their closer friends
whose activities they lead
would hence be of higher importance
What about others?
They are deemed as irrelevant
Everything that is done is never seen
Only when things happened
and need them to get involved
5 gift-words will be given
B.L.A.M.E

I shall be strong
After all these nonsense all the while
I shall be strong
who cares if other really cares
Most importantly
I care
and true friends care
That will be good enough
This shall be the last time
(For this Semester)
That I openly express my fury
and anger
and disappointment
to this particular group
Which group?
Is it not obvious until now?

Why?
Simple
Life Goes On


*Disclaimer: This refers to only a particular Hall, not to all the Halls.
This also refers to only certain individuals in that group.
Not all. Sorry for the generalizing.

Of Anger and Appreciation
Is there anyway
that I can learn how to manade my anger?
It has come to limit for my patience
Everyone seems to take advantage of my stupidity
And my fury is growing
with current development of events
Cannot imagine how will it be
when the limit is reached
Or worse
breached

Received an email from the relevant authority today
that clearly shows lack of
alright, its not lacking, but it is not even present
absence, i shall say, of communication
Was not updated of relevant events
And since I am coordinating and overseeing
the blame naturally shines towards me
It seems
that I am not efficient
and I am not capable
Alright, fine.
How much can I do
when I am deserted like this
Am tired of asking people for help
Be it seniors or peers
And have to see their sour faces
Or waiting long long
to no avail
Fine.
I will not kneel down and beg you
Don't want to give a hand
Just say
Don't fucking give me excuses
Such as busy
Everyone else is

Sorry for my language
I dunno what other words to use
Not fair if I always use German

Fortunately
In such times
There are still friends who are always there
Rendering unconditional help
And I really appreciate that
Thanks
and Thank you so much :)
For willing to work with me
and standing by me
Having you as my friends
are just good enough
Enough to make me happy

Of Being Lost and Left Alone
OK la. It is not as depressing as the title actually
But right now I am really lost
With so many challenges facing me ahead
Are they there to mould me into a better person?
Or are they plainly there just to make me life more miserable?
On the Optimistic side, of course it is the former
but on the Pessimistic side, it is the latter.

So, which side shall I choose?
Op or Pes?
Well many might say, the choice is up to me.
So the choice is really up to me.
I do want a happy life.
But can all these unnecessary glitches make me happier?
Or are they just here to act as a force of equilibrium,
to neutralise my happiness?

2 weeks before exams
2 freaking weeks
and I have to face this crap
Crap about asking for sponsorship for an event
aih
Lazy to tell the whole long story
Just want to grumble over here
and give a LOOOOOONG HUGE SIGH
Ich verirrt mich jetzt, und weiß nicht was ich danach tun soll
Wie? Was soll ich tun?

Of New Discovery and Sleepless Days
A friend of mine in Hall, TY, sent me a very fantansic MTV of a performance
This Russian song titled "Opera #2" sang by Vitas
who is, of course, also a Russian singer
It started very normal
The music is full of Russian style (hmm at least to me la)
Or shall i say
it sounds like a typical Eastern Europe music that is of my knowledge
Then suddenly,
He sings in Falcetto
And he went way up high, that not many people in this world can reach the pitch!!
And he is funny
A real performer indeed...
I wonder how can I post the MTV onto the blog ah??

Wonder why
These few days
Slept too much?
Dunno ler
Woke up at 11am today from 1am last night
Still sleepy!
Slept in library when studying
Argh...
dunno how much i have achieved spending the whole day in the library
whats wrong?

A Sign of Apocalypse?!
Ever wonder why
How come it's 5.30pm already
The sun is still so high up?
High above the horizon and Up in the sky?
It's already November!
The Northern Hemisphere is already stepping into Winter!
And yet
Over here it is still 33°C

?!?!?!?!?!

It feels like a freaking 38°C

!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay, maybe I should clam down


But I just Can't
Sighx
Why is life so unfair
?!?!?!?!?!?!
