Random and Hi LJ


Wow... I am surprised I still remember how to find my way here... and i didn't forget my lj password.

What am I doing here?? The answer... is not a rational one.

It goes something like this....

1. I am busy with important AND pointless but necessary stuff.
2. When I am busy/stressed, I do real useless things which are supposed to help me de-stress
3. Useless things are time-consuming and have 0 productivity rate
4. I have less time to do important + redundant stuff
5. Stress level increases

Conclusion: it is all part of a cycle.

Oh well... writing this short msg definitely won't take up as much time as things I have to do but yet see no reason why I should do them. 

OK! I re-read the above and realise all these lead to a further conclusion - I should sleep now. 

The question now is to delete or not to delete this entry? 

Ps. Now I know why my philosophical essays always way exceed the suggested word count. 



 


Fate (with people in particular)


It is amazing how some things in life can be so coincidental. Is there such a thing as fate? Do events happen for a reason? Acting according to some plan unknown to us? Maybe the people we meet are those we are fated to know. Depending on the amount of fate we have with each other, our journey in life may intertwine more than once or never again. That could explain why there are some people we think we will never meet again and yet, by some stroke of chance, we meet at the most unlikely place and time. In contrast, there are some people we long to meet and go all out to match their schedule, hoping to see them but yet we always miss them. There are even some people we do not wish to meet and try to avoid them at all costs but they somehow find their way to the very place we stand.

I guess life will remain a mystery till death and maybe beyond.

My arms are aching now. Nothing surprising after I had to literally drag a living being which weighs more than half my weight (i think) around and still suffer it’s dreaded struggle and kicks. In the process, I must have bent too much for my back experiences the same pain lingering in my arm. :(

Work today was tiring even though I didn’t do much besides stoning at the computer. Haha. I’m doing “operations” now, so every day I have to video a different class. It’s quite sad that I don’t have a class of my own but it is still fun. I get to go to a different P2 class everyday and see the little ones. I also get to “slack” a lot even though we go home very late (one of the latest today! :(). Hahah Take today for example. We spent about 4 hours doing nothing but waiting for the video file to be converted from mpg to avi. Gah... still say it was faster than using the tape/old video recorder!! Oh well... I guess once I start the editing, it should be quite fast.

Oh so far, the greatest thing about being in operations is that I got to video one of the PP class!! Hahah they are so adorable. (okay, only I thought so cause I had one of the better classes) Anyway, amidst the 4 hr “break” which I had, I went to the cafe to get something and saw the PP classes having their recess! Hahaha so I found the class which I videoed. gah... i was quite surprised that most of them remembered me and some even remembered my name! Hahah how touching... The teacher was really nice too... she let me join the class for the remaining 1 hr of lesson since I had nothing to do. aww I think I really like that class a lot! They are all so adorable looking and say the cutest things.  Hahah okay I cannot give specific examples but they are all very cute. Too bad I cant stay with them for the rest of my time there. :( Never mind... I shall visit them during breaks instead of staring at the computer!!

Jan. 3rd, 2009

Just yesterday or the previous day ( i dont really rmb haha) i stumbled upon this forum thingy and they were talking about hey say jump. So, I realised that they had a few new singles since the last time i heard about them which was when they first debuted. Being bored, I decided to check out their pv... and before i knew it, i sortof like them! hahah but it's so weird watching them. Most of them are much younger than me, and the oldest, yabu, is only a few months older than me!! okay, at least the guy i like is my age... just a few months younger (which helps a lot). HAHA i will resist liking the younger ones cause it makes me feel like a paedophile. lol.

haha but despite their age, I wonder why jap guys (at least those on tv) look way better and more matured than most guys here. >.< 

Ohh yes... Gackt has an upcoming hollywood movie!! It's titled Bunraku and he's one of the main characters in the show, starring with Josh Hartnett. Not bad considering the fact that he didn't act in a lot of movies/dramas. hahah that's a must watch! just hope it's nice... and not a waste of money.

happy 2009

It's a brand new year today. Somehow... maybe having gone through 18 new years... it doesnt seem to be something exciting. I guess maybe it's because there is no school to look forward to. haha yes.. even though i detest waking up early in the morning and going through the long lectures or tutorials, there was still something fun about school. I guess it's because of the people I meet and spend time with.

haha. okay. this is not going to be some emo post!

Well, even though there is no school (as in jc) to go to... i'm sort of still going to school. hhah confusing? no! it's because i go to pathlight which is a school. -___-. (fine... this is lame) 

oh finally found the motivation to read the handouts and make notes for tomorrow test! haha yes.. even though i;m a teacher aid, presently, it seems like i'm still a student. Having to go through "lectures" for the past week and study for the test. Hope the summary helps because I didn't bother to memorise anything. hahah yar i know i'm lazy but i'm in no mood to study after A-s! One more thing.. shall remember to bring sweets tmr. hahah if not i might fall asleep cause i'm not used to lectures too. Hmm.... I guess that's why the first week of school starts out slack... to enable ppl like me to get used to school life. lol

Arh... was quite annoyed yesterday/this morning! somehow.. tvants didnt work for me! so I couldn't watch the johnny countdown at all! bleah.. what a waste of time sitting at my comp trying to make it work! I tried to dl other programmes but they didnt work either!! :( How disappointing. So in the end, I had to watch Spore countdown which was sad... Gah shall find it online. Ohh! haha I'm really glad that there's a bunch of ppl i can fangirl to at pathlight! It keeps things interesting during breaks! But maybe too much fangirl drains out the energy within me, making me super tired during the lectures. (though i keep blaming eating lunch as the cause) HAHAH

yupp that's all. so afterall, this isn't a new year post!

HAPPY 2009! :) 

Dec. 18th, 2008

Winds released a new single recently. Well, maybe not that recent. Just that I only found out recently... >< 

The songs are sort of the typical winds songs. Gah.. i guess why i like them is because they can actually sing! (i think so... never really listen to their live performances.. haha only the cd songs)

Hmm but i wonder why only keita sings. Havent heard the other two sing before... but when they sing the harmony.. it sounds really nice! So i guess, if they can harmonise, they should be able to sing?? haha okay.. maybe not true.

Besides winds.. i realise a whole other bunch of singers released new songs too! Shall catch up... but so far the only album i want to buy is il divo's the promise! arh.. i really love their songs even though i dont understand. hahah they can really really sing! They are prob one of the few artists i want to see live. For the rest... erm... listen on cd can already. haha

ohh and kattun has a new christmas song... haha it's so not kattun! The song is nice though... haha esp the first half only where the ppl who can sort of sing do so.. haha then the 2nd half.. erm... okay i guess not that bad. HAHA but besides the singing, i think the tune is nice!! The sort that is easy to remember and stays there...

okay.. that's all. Shall find things to do now.

grad night... brief thoughts



Arhhh i realise the last time i posted something was ages ago. haha tsk tsk i'm so lazy.

I guess prom was okay... before prom, I didn't really think much about it. I wasn't excited etc. Then before i knew it, it was 3 dec. Strangely, I started to be a little excited that morning. Thinking about all the ppl I would see... wondering how they would look... etc. I guess what was so amazing about prom was the ppl there.

There were ppl i know i would meet, ppl i would like to meet and ppl i wanted to meet but felt that maybe i shouldn’t see them even though it probably would be the very last time we met. Then again, it is most likely because i know i won’t see them again that i did not want to meet them. Gah... feelings are complicated. Anyway, i ended up meeting ppl from all these different groups. So I guess there is no point in deciding who you want to meet for the ballroom isn’t exactly very large and neither is it small. -_-

As I went around taking pictures with people, I realised that I didn’t feel anything. Maybe it is because I was busy and so I did not bother to think. I guess this is why humans find the need to work no matter how much they dislike the idea of having to wake up every morning and perform the same routine job. It is probably more of a need than a want.

Before I knew it, the end had come. Suddenly, I felt really emo. I thought I had managed to control these emotions the previous night... but I guess it wasn’t enough. No matter how rational I try to be, I realise that the heart is still stronger than the brain.

Maybe someday I will understand the importance of parting and why it has to occur in life. But I guess it is better to have these uncontrollable thoughts instead of living a life without feelings... like a robot.

Anyway, at the very end, I don’t think there was anything else I should have done. I believe I can move on without the feeling of regret.

music

recently, i realise my taste in music is really weird! For some strange reason, i'm into Jrock and oldies now. lol! and they are two extremes! but yes... i got into them at the same time. k not really "got into them" but somehow i enjoy listening to such songs now. what similarities do they have? well... just one... the singers for both oldies of Jrock bands can really sing!! arhh! for oldies... i always knew they can sing. but i didn't realise jrock lead singers could!! so far, out of all the bands i've listened to... their lead singer has this amazing and powerful voice which usually can reach very high notes. they are really better than jpop artists. but i guess they have more experience. afterall, they are not around my age. lol

HAHA the animals in my house are weird! 

k.. i shall let the pics speak for themselves...

dozo.. 



haha see how my hamster sleeps! lol.. he was sleeping on the wheel when he fell off and landed on his head! HAHA the amazing thing is that he continued to sleep! lol... yes yes my hamster sleeps like a pig. u can call him or shake the entire place and he won't wake up. 



^ top view. LOL!

ohh and this is what he does with the dry food....



hmm not sure if it is obvious but my hamster actually chewed/broke the food into tiny pieces.. like crumps. i have no idea why. i guess cause he does not like to eat it... haha he likes nuts only.. so maybe he thinks we will change his food?? if not it could be easier to eat while he exercises on the wheel. cause he loves to exercise for a long time, taking short breaks in between by eating or drinking.



and this is my turtle. lol i think he grew bigger recently so that day, he could come out of his "pond". haha i guess cause it was his first time, he was unsure of what to do so he just stood there at the edge. lol.. after that day, he could come out easily so we had to keep catching him and placing him back. i think i need to get him a bigger place.. lol

k k that's all. haha looking at my animals make me feel relaxed from all that studying.!
