what is your deepest darkest fear?
I was watching csi vegas two nights ago. it was hell. i t was really torturous for me. yes, i am a man. but men do cry. i almost cried because i could picture myself in nick stokes position. He was kidnapped by this revengeful psycho...who decided to drug nicky and bury him alive in a plexi glass coffin. he left nicky with a gun, some lightsticks and a tape recorder. for those who've seen that episode, the part when nicky woke up to discover he was stuck in the hell hole... and then when he went on convulsing and crying and screaming... i'd done the same. i'd really prolly say my last prayers and shoot myself. I am claustrophobic. i am very very claustrophobic and to be buried alive like that. my god... just thinking about it right now, my heart's beating so fast...
the plexi-glass began to crack later on as the weight of the soil began to take its toll on the coffin... and red ants... RED ANTS! began to make their way onto nicky... all over his body... imagine... colonies of ants... red ants... biting you all over your body and trying to burrow into your nostrils and ears. that was really unpleasant to see. but it would have been worse if the coffin was invaded by snakes. I am terrified of snakes. I am very very terrified of snakes.
confined spaces and snakes. my deepest darkest(pun intended) fear.
but he was saved finally by his csi colleagues! and boy was nicky crying like a baby eager to get out of the coffin...although he could not just yet cos there was a bomb under that coffin which will be triggered by the lack of pressure exerted by nicky's weight. i would have cried like a baby too. i was so angry at the psycho who did that to him. i dont understand why people would subject other human beings to that. you guys might think "oh come on hafiz! it's bloody fictitious!"... but then again, it is something someone is capable of doing okay... and i'm sure someone must have done that to someone else before
anyway i decided to skip anthro lect today... lazy la... it's quite boring lah actually... still at home now... but i will go to school anyways for urban lecture... which i have been religiously skipping... cos that lecture is super boring as well. but i think i should go today... too much skipping already... and if i fail to do well for the exams because i don;t attend the lectures, i will kick myself so hard that i will prolly cut my legs off for having kicked myself so hard in the first place... then i'm staying in school to mug! hahha... well not really mug lah... i just want to finish off my race and ethnic relations readings... i want to finish up all the readings before 'reading week' (haha how ironic)... so that i could really prepare for the exams... unlike the past semesters when preparing for the exams meant finishing up all the readings that i;ve lagged behind in... i just wanna be better prepared this sem... considering my important papers are within the first three days of the start of the exams... anthro and race on the same day! weooow! and urban on the 21st! the first paper! so yeah... i shan't panic. i will endeavor to do well this semester and for that i will have to start studying now! so prolly will be in skool till 10 ish or so... or i might have to watch survivor in skool! then i'd be going home at 12! weooowww! hahaha...
i gotta go now!!!!!!! see ya'll!!!

i swear i'll make ya'll extinct one day!
Mozzies, mosquitoes, nyamoksssss... benda jahanam! my room is infested with these, literally, blood suckers! seriously, suck all the blood you want but don't fucking make me itch! wat the hellllll is the matter with you guys! go clean your proboscis first la! before you feed on me! sheeeeeesshhhhh u guys! u bloody flying bastards!how to make them extinct ah? i mean i don;t think it will affect some sort of ecological chain or something right? cos i mean... they feed on human blood and who wants to eat mosquitoes siak? hmmm... but only the females feed on human blood... ya'll damn bitches!... what do the male mosquitoes do? anyone who knows... and who has nothing better to do... holler at me yeah!... then maybe we could together find a way to get rid of all these pests... so insignificant right? wat sey eat blood? so demented... same la with the kutus and ticks and bed mites... vampires... sanitary pads................
okay... the last one uncalled for la... but i could not get the image out of my head! i just read a blog... syima's (syima's one of my jap tute mate) and she had this pic taken of an overflowing sanitary pad bin... that was alrite la.. then she showed another pic she took some time before... and i could see it was a macdonald's restroom... a jamban aka toilet bowl... trickling with blood! which culminated on the floor... with a red fleshy thing in a mass of red fluid........ and yes syima... i am staying away from strawberry sundae toooo after seeing that... forever!!!!!!!!! that was the ultimate grossest thing i've ever seen in my life!......................anyway, not being dramatic or wat la... but the mozzies are really annoying... just needed to let a bit of that steam off... i am supposed to be doing my race and ethnic relations paper... i'm 3/4 done... and when i'm close to finishing, i will always ...ALWAYS... put it on hold... it's like an inertia... its like i noe i'm gonna be done with it but i just won't get it done as yet... again.. sado masochistic... cos guess wat? i get a kick from rushing through the paper just before the deadline...knowing that i could have gotten it over and done with wayyyyyyy before that. hahaha... gile
speaking of gile... i miss them gile friends of mine!i'm watching teeveee over doing my paper... and teevee hasn't even got anything nice on right noe... i am so retarded ... anyway, i shall not whine... although i am feeling it coming.. hahha... but no i won't
i thought i'd have something cheerful to write about here... but no i don't... so i guess i'll log off now before i start being all mopey. cos being mopey sucks... and i shouldn't subject ya'll to my mopey-nesssss... so have a good one ya'll...whatever it is la... a good nite.. a good weekend... a good week ahead.. a good month ahead... a good year ahead... a good life ahead..........................anyway here are some random pics of my officially declared pep*k/pussy face by fiza... fiza says i have this pep*k/pussy face whenever i pose for her camera......... oh well... i think it's cute. HAHAHAHAHA

of binge eating and essay writing
i feel really sick right now... cos i had been binge eating... as always... how do u ppl think i got so fat? yes i think i have a disease... i eat not because i'm hungry... its usually like an itch that i have to scratch... it gets worse when i am stressed out like i am now... term papers... it can be really a pain... especially trying to start of an essay... it can be quite frustrating... anyway... i think i need help... how ar? my binge eating is getting out of control... i really can't stop myself until i feel really sick like i do right now... and then i get all irritable and useless...then i start feeling hot.. and sweaty... and i feel like barfing. when i go on a food binge, i eat something sweet... and then something not sweet... and then something sweet... followed by something not sweet... it's really weird. its like i have to erase the sweet taste in my mouth with something... and then i feel like i have to have that sweet taste back in my mouth after i have erased that sweet taste in my mouth in the first place... u guys get it? i think i'm crazy like that.
it's a sunday thing la... i always do this on sundays... when i'm not out... and i'm trying to finish up my school assignments...and then when i'm out of inspiration i go get myself some food and stuff my face... stuff and stuff and stuff... till i get all weird in the tummy. gym sessions go down the drain just like that cos i don't bother watching my diet. i dunno...i am just too stressed out to get into the zone of watching what i eat and all... watching ur diet is not easy la... i mean i used to be able to do it... but it takes sheer determination and perseverance and right now, i have no space in my being for that. i only have the energy and will to obsess about school... and about my grades. i noe i've said it here before... but really... i think my decision to go on and do my honours year is not such a great idea. it is really stressing me out i feel like bursting. people don't know that... they think i'm just being stressful as always... i mean... normal la right... nus... second half of sem... very stressful... but no... it's totally different right now. it is very very different. and what makes it worse is that i dont think there is anyone i noe that can make me feel better about the current situation i am in... i dont think there is anyone i noe who can really feel what i feel... i mean its not their fault... cos sometimes it is really hard to empathize... i am sure everyone has ever felt like no one could really understand what they're going through... i am going through that... and school is not the only thing that's going on in my life... i have other things to think about. and i'm just tired. i really didn't want this entry to be whiny like this but i guess i can't help it... i need an outlet right now and this happens to be the best thing i could find right now. i'm tired of giving my all... i'm tired of competing... i'm tired of having to worry and obsess about whether i'm gonna come out successful in this academic battle. NUS is really wearing me out...my life is wearing me out.
i need something exciting in my life... something new and refreshing... i feel like i haven't lived yet... you know what i mean? it's like all my life, it has been about studying...study study study...it is fucking boring after a while... i dunno... i mean i guess i don't mind doing sociology.. it is really fun and intriguing... i love doing all the research and doing the papers... but what takes out the fun and enjoyment of doing sociology research papers is constantly having to pressure myself into making sure that whatever i write will make it count towards an A grade. and that is super not fun la. why do i continue subjecting myself to this? it is almost sado-masochistic of me. maybe i should just let go..... let go of all the worries and pressures of needing to excel.... maybe i should just take a deep breath and just go with the flow.... maybe Bs are good enough... maybe...maybe maybe maybe...

because you're immature
i actually wrote a paragraph long piece about someone who is being a real pain in the arse... and i was gonna write abt a nus shuttle bus drivers who is retarded and demented in the head... but i'm tired and feeling frustrated about these things by blogging will just drain the little traces of energy in my being right now.
firstly, my project members have now stepped it up and i'd say that they're really a fun bunch! minus one prickette... who pricks you in the ass so bad you could feel the pain reverbrating through your rectal muscles all the way to your bladder... so anyway yeah... its the second half of the semester and that could only mean one thing... HELL. especially so when you are doing six modules. i can say i'm pretty proud of myself tho.. cos i have managed to keep up with my readings... and so studying for the exams won;t be so bad la. genes and society lecture was the last one just now and so i have my mondays and thursdays 2-4 freee! woohoooo... which is bombin'ly awesome... now that some of my time has been freed up, i can use that to do my term papers religiously so as to meet the impeding deadlines! and anyway the lecturer just now gave answers to the midterm.. and i reckon i've only got 20 plus questions correct out of 40. sheesh.. luckily i decided to photocopy the text book... cos i was so blur abt wat was happening in the module!... i think if i hadnt i would have done even more badly... but the questions were really tricky la... i thought i did pretty well.. but ummm... i did a lot of mistakes.... luckily S/U liao... and if i get an UNSATISFACTORY i'd go shoot myself la.
had to go to skool by public transportation today cos the car was unavailable... and class started at 8 this morning... and i was late. had to spend 6 bucks from clementi interchange to nus on cab fare... and that sucked... another 8 am class tomoro morning... bleeearrgghhh... and its schmidt, who is bloody boring... his voice is droning and weird... and he likes to speak... and hardly gives usthe chance to talk...even during tutorials...
so much abt school... hmmm.. oh i'm still broke... and that sucks... i went to catch dreamgirls with fathiyah on tuesday with the free movie vouchers i got from singtel... watched it at the shaw house... or shaw towers...??? aiyah i always get them mixed up laaaa.. the one on beach road la... with sofra in it... anyway.. was my first time there... no people la.. but weeoooww damn old la... and so ulu the cinema... big but... so old fashioned... and musky! yuck... but the movie was pretty good... altho i felt that jennifer hudson soon began screaming rather than singing half the show...powerful pipes, but singing is quite different from screaming lor
i dunno what to write anymore... cos i think i wanna stop blogging now... so many things in my head... so much stuff to do.. and i gotta to get them done now.... so later ya'll

under pressure
i really wanna go melbourne this winter la... my mum keeps telling me i should go and visit my bro... i really want to but no money so how? suck thumb la
and i miss tasmania... and i wanna drop by sydney... i miss all those friendly aussies... the cashiers at the safeway and coles... the sales people... the buskers... i miss the 'ding' of the trams and the graffiti on every single available wall... i miss the suburbs and the warm suburban residents... i miss the weather and really really miss having to chase for the train or risk waiting for an hour for the next one... i miss melbourne... you'd think after more than 2 months back home, i'll get over melbourne... but i haven't and that sucks...
it sucks that i keep whining about wanting to be in melbourne... it sucks that i don't get to go there anytime soon... it sucks to be in NUS... it sucks to have sucky project members... it sucks to be alone at school... it sucks not to have money... especially when you think you actually have a lot to spare but you really don't and then ending up spending waaaaayyyyy over your means... it sucks to not have someone special in life... it sucks that the car park at NUS are no longer free... it sucks that i have deadlines coming up... it sucks that i think my house is haunted! hahaha... well life sucks like that la.................................
i really want a cap of 4.5 again this semester... it's ok if i don't make it to the dean's list... just a 4.5 please... it is really taking a toll on me... or maybe not... especially when i know things will get done if i reduce my time watching tv... but tv's real good lah right now... it always is this time of the year... new seasons and all... sheesh.
