tinkling wind chimes, the afternoon breeze's mirth.
okay, so i have no idea what to title this entry and that just popped into mind cos i'm actually in the living rm now, and i can hear them tinkling/clanging/chiming away. Did i mention that there are 6 wind chimes in my hme? There's this earthen bell one, this musical one, 2 that have dolphins and dangly skinny-metal rods, a wooden hollow bali handcrafted one, and one that is made of totally seashells.
So i effectively have an assorted chorus of windchimes. They're nice. =) [but 6 is enough, thank you very much]
the life of a lively innocent girl, extinguished ?
what was that about trust? i still find it hard to do so. worse, if the betrayal of trust comes from someone close.
details about the missing girl's case are still unclear, but they've found a body. And there's a high probability of it belonging to a child, for it to fit into sucha small box. I did think that the guy suspect was innocent initially, though i'm really having my doubts now. Seems that he knows more than he is letting on. Innocent till proven guilty, they say. and perhaps, like any other case... there's more to it than meets the eye? the poor poor girl.
herm. it's still too early to say anything affirmative. Though it's touching to see singaporeans, as well as malaysians from all walks of life rallying together to help out with the search for the past wk(s?)
me, myself, i
Nursing a horrible headache,and a lousy mood now. That time of the month agn, i think. sheesh. Disgusted, unwilling, unmotivated. Did i mention how much i hate mugging... wish i had the courage to say, screw A levels! and not bother abt stuff. but noooo, sadly, i don't.

okay, so i'm like half-asleep now as i'm typing this. i'm in the midst of an organic chem camp! so-called, cos my best buddy's here to stayover... and yea, we're having a helluva time. rite. tho it sure takes the drudgery out of mugging.
i'm totally freaked out abt why i'm still taking things easy. Just let me get thru the A levels asap. actually, i'd really love to gripe abt how totally unprepared i feel (still). cos i'm pretty sure that all arnd me pple are like gg thru their nth round of revision, but yea. haix. oh well. =s
kk... time for bed! ~later

The Way You Look Tonight
Some day, when I’m awfully low,
When the world is cold,
I will feel a glow just thinking of you...
And the way you look tonight.
Yes you’re lovely, with your smile so warm
And your cheeks so soft,
There is nothing for me but to love you,
And the way you look tonight.
With each word your tenderness grows,
Tearing my fear apart...
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose,
It touches my foolish heart.
Lovely ... never, ever change.
Keep that breathless charm.
Won’t you please arrange it ?
’cause I love you ... just the way you look tonight.
Mm, mm, mm, mm,
Just the way you look to-night.
====================================================
time to check-in!
In fact, i think i shall write more often, until after GP paper that is. Have to get used to keeping those thoughts flowing so i won't stone so much whilst writing my essay. yea, i know, practical lil me.
Today's chem prac, was in 1 word, "disaster-rific". Shan't go into a nitty-gritties, but yea, i think i did horribly. but it's over, so.. case closed. =) hmm, which brings me to the point that, i wonder how surgeons do their job? it's so stressful!! And, they can't afford to make any mistake at all, since lives are at stake. Minds and nerves of steel, they have. ( i mean, considering i can't even handle a practical under exam conditions. bleah.)
was in a lousy mood actually, till i watched idol. Sylvester cheered me up, yay =) Boy oh boy, i just love his voice!! Especially today, when it had that slightly husky touch to it... *swoon* i wholeheartedly agree with florence lian, if it were my guy singing that to me, i'd just melt into a sr puddle, not to mention that 2nd wedding bit. Sheesh, i really loved his rendition, only found frank sinatra's and michael buble's online, and it just ain't the same. damn.
was chatting with hl on the phone just now, and we both agree tht it's his unassuming personality that's so endearing, unlike some other guys out there who are goodlooking, and know they are, and think that gives them the right to be total jerks. okay, out of point. yup, and elisa amuses me so, she was gushing over him too, and she ain't the type who does such stuff... tht girl voted 6 times!

Solitude
~Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Laugh, and the world laughs with you;
Weep, and you weep alone;
For the sad old earth must borrow its mirth,
But has trouble enough of its own.
Sing, and the hills will answer;
Sigh, it is lost on the air;
The echoes bound to a joyful sound,
But shrink from voicing care.
Rejoice, and men will seek you;
Grieve, and they turn and go;
They want full measure of all your pleasure,
But they do not need your woe.
Be glad, and your friends are many;
Be sad, and you lose them all, --
There are none to decline your nectared wine,
But alone you must drink life's gall.
Feast, and your halls are crowded;
Fast, and the world goes by.
Succeed and give, and it helps you live,
But no man can help you die.
There is room in the halls of pleasure
For a large and lordly train,
But one by one we must all file on
Through the narrow aisles of pain.
=======================================
How apt. no matter what, no-one likes to be dragged down by others. Especially if one's in a horribly lousy mood, and you're just feeling the exact opposite!?
"Studying is like doing a 1000-piece jig saw puzzle. You don't have to know all 1000 pieces well. Just the corners and the sides. The rest will fall in place."
mm. i love tht expression sy gave me. heh. felt a wee bit better aftr his msgs, thanks.
to hell with the computer ban.
Latest update: my dad has just installed a wireless version. *dbl doing*
Now i can't even unplug it even if i want to.
i swear i'll wake to my senses soon. Like, right now. Have been happily wasting my time the past 2 days.
~adios.

i am nothing
i feel inconsequential. insignificant. unimportant.
Rightly so, anyway. Thanks for reminding me, dear.
i simply have no idea where i'm heading towards. No goals in life, i'm just drifting and drifting...
Life is like this sheet of blank paper. You're the artist, the brush is in your hand. You choose the colours, you define the strokes. Well, if that is so, the picture i'm painting now happens to be a murky one, with the odd splash of colour here and there. i wish i could remove all the murkiness.
i don't want the cloudy nights, i just wish to see all the tiny silvery stars in their quiet twinkling splendour, agnst the black velvety sky.
Perhaps you're wondering... now, what's up with her today? *shrug*
geez. i'm feeling anti-social right now. am afraid, and uncertain. I honestly don't know what it is i'm afraid of, why i am afraid. But time and time again, that has held me back from taking the plunge, to be, without restraint. i hope you can understand that.
hmm. had qte a nice chat with vanessa and cheryl just now. it was pretty unexpected, cos siupo added me into the conversation, outta the blue. heh. ness is in Melbourne U doing dentistrY. =) soo cool, i'll go to her for pearly whites in the future! hear that, girL? grin, and her apartment is abv jun's and wen's!! aaah. i'm itching to visit lehz. it'll be a riot.
perhaps, all's not lost in the end. i mean, our class isn't exactly in touch with 1 another. we nvr did have a proper meet-up since graduating. everyone's just too caught up in in their own lives. but there'll always be new stories to share, and the camaraderie remains. it's a gd thing tht blogs exist, at least i'm still updated. take lotsa care, ya'all. =) i'm pretty sentimental, i gs.
and sam's just msged me.. asking me if i'd like to join them on a trip to some beach resort after As. "like langkawi, or phuket or bintan or redang..." haha. (lol, like, didn't kel... and even bear mention the idea b4?) it all sounds great, plus the promise of a spa!!!!!!! warh, tht'll be absolute heaven. except tht, i wonder if i'll really enjoy myself in their company, cos they're sucha rowdy raucous bunch. =) and i tend to get lost amidst all the noisy laughter and madness. i'm such a contradictory person. i mean, i love the excitement and energy of being arnd pple and all... but when i'm there, i just start to feel slightly distanced fr. everyone. i kinda... clam up in big grps. so.. i'm pretty much the 'quiet' one amgst them! nevertheless, it's always fun hanging out with this grp la. can luff till stomachache onez. =)
haa. oh no oh no. 1 more thing. where am i gonna get all the $$$ to finance these extravagant trips? i'm like half-hoping tht i'll be able to go somewhere with xm, kel, becks and el they all... as well as with the choir peepz,like, b4 the boys go into ns! =s
geez
but b4 tht, absolutely no more frivolous thoughts. gotta focus for As.ha. kk. i've overshot my blog quota for this wk. DAmN. =p
