just at this very moment i really wish I could be elsewhere... i am so tensed that I really just want to paddle the cold waters of Australia and be one with the ocean. i want to feel the cold water splashing on my face and i will beg the waves to take me away... far far away from this melancholy. i miss the great ocean.

i see the sunshine after the rain

the past week was uneventful... classes as usual... readings are aplenty... i wasn't so stressed up... am trying to settle down quickly and really get into full school mode. apart from yesterday when i found out most of those doing their HTs have already gotten their supervisors! and there i was .. still sitting on the proposal... i wanted to do a relatively extensive lit review before i meet daniel goh.. but what with readings for the seminars, i really hadn't got any time!... it didn't help that class ended only at 10 last night... btw forensic science is very very interesting although it can be quite gory and morbid at times....... so well... after class i drove myself back and got to working on my proposal... by three i emailed daniel.. hoping that i wldn''t be too late because i heard that many are thinking of going to him for supervision....

today i decided to go to school.. cause i have so much to do.... and it proved to be worth my while.... i spent 3 hrs photocopying readings for interpretive sociology!!! i didnt expect chapters 1 and 2 of a book could total up to about 100 pages! siao can! so that done with i went to perk point to well.. perk myself up with refreshments cause i was so thirsty and hungry! manged to do a whole lot of reading in 4 hrs. i think i should go to school every saturday lah! hahaha no life lah siak!...

anyway... had to take the bus just now... cause weekends, the car's out of bounds... the bus ride home was well... eye opening? haha... the bus looked different from the outside... and to my surprise the bus driver actually gave a wide smile and greeted me politely as i boarded the bus! and then... this greeted me.........

pardon me if i got a li'l bit excited at the sight of this but i have never seen a bus like this!!!! so loungey! hahhaa.. there was even a bar top with two bar stools facing the window! haha... it was so nice! i didn't even know such a bus existed... i mean the interior walls of the bus are upholstered la! haha.. but got some impracticalities la... and of course the seating capacity is greatly reduced... but that's ok for 156 service late at night... cause not too many passengers la that time of the night....

anyway i was dead tired la when i came back home.. but when i opened my email.. i got an email from daniel goh! i have gotten myself a HT supervisor!!! that's one cause for worry down! yipeeeeeee... so now i'm in a lighter mood.. still tired... but at least tonight's gonna be a peaceful slumber!

family is precious

'brothers and sisters' tugs at your heart strings... reminds one of how important family is and how much you love every single one of 'em. we fight. we squabble. we scream at one another. at the end of the day, family's indispensable. and we always yearn for that familial love and affection we always find almost palpable.

of big bulky boxes, bubble wraps and oily chicken skin

the past week-- tiresome. busy busy busy packing and stacking boxes... we're prolly like 60 % ready to move house liao! haha. the irony is that the first hdb appointment will only be in mid september! well, i took on the liberty of packing most of the stuff cause once i start school, hence today onwards, i wouldn't want to bother myself with all those packings anymore. i have a great load on my mind right now. i am still grappling with the fact that i have to come up with a thesis idea real soon. in fact by october i'd have to have had to choose a lecturer as my HT supervisor and to have a tentative title for my HT. so far i feel like my ideas suck. so more literature reading has definitely got to be done. I think it's pretty settled though that I'd want to do something pertaining to race and ethnic relations in Singapore and that I'd want Dr Daniel Goh to be my HT supervisor. He's pretty cool la.. although i don't appreciate his occasional sarcasms..... apart from that tuition time slots has been reshuffled to accommodate my new school timetable. i will prolly lose a tuition assignment which has been pushed to a weekend and that's fine by me. 100 bucks less but i'll live.

last two days was REWANG again... earned some buckeroos... although i was thinking yesterday how i'll never get used to the exhaustion that comes from all that work. i've done these for a few times and yet the exhaustion can still be quite unbearable. good thing last night was a sweet cool night as the skies decided to pour just as i was tucking myself into bed.

i'm hungry... i need to get myself some breakfast... class at 3 later: religion, deviance and identity... i hope the class's as interesting as the module title sounds. i've got my notebooks ready but i just realised i forgot to stock up on my highlighters and the CO-OP will be damn packed this time of the week what with ppl getting new stationary and textbooks. DANNGG. oh but i am prettey stoked to check out the new ARTS canteen... the new Deck. BurgerKing within crawling distance to everyday at school... tell me how i;m gonna keep myself from getting any bigger! i love my BK burgers la! sinful i tell ya!

i shall go eat now.

Protège moi

C'est le malaise du moment
L'épidémie qui s'étend
La fête est finie on descend
Les pensées qui glacent la raison
Paupières baissées, visage gris
Surgissent les fantômes de notre lit
On ouvre le loquet de la grille
Du taudis qu'on appelle maison

Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me
Protect me

Protège-moi, protège-moi {x4}

Sommes nous les jouets du destin

Souviens toi des moments divins
Planants, éclatés au matin
Et maintenant nous sommes tout seuls
Perdus les rêves de s'aimer
Le temps où on avait rien fait
Il nous reste toute une vie pour pleurer
Et maintenant nous sommes tout seuls

Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me
Protect me

Protect me from what I want (Protège-moi, protège-moi)
Protect me from what I want (Protège-moi, protège-moi)
Protect me from what I want (Protège-moi, protège-moi)
Protect me
Protect me

Protège-moi, protège-moi
Protège-moi de mes désirs
Protège-moi, protège-moi

Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me
Protect me {x3}
