Life is Boring By Myself

I am seriously baffled.

I know I get this "disease" every time exam season comes around. But I have yet to comprehend this strange sickness that I seem to be inflicted with.


Why do I never do the things I'm supposed to do?
And do everything else that I'm not supposed to do?


>.<


Sigh. My days are boring nowadays.

It's just me, my lappie baby, and the four walls of my room. Oh, and ze books, of course.
You get so comfortable that you don't feel like leaving the room. At all.

Not even to pee.

Sometimes. =.=



The only thing I ever look forward to each day?



Dinner time.



When I get to:

watch How I Met Your Mother episodes on my lappie baby,
while I:


Slurp on yummy Korean Shin Ramyon !
(Seriously. I LOVE this ! Wayyyyyy better than Maggi Curry la~)




Now that Adrian's drama performance was over last Wednesday....


Wait, let me digress for a second to rave about it.








Oh. Am. Gee. The Fruitcake Special put on by the Cohort 5 of TESL IPBL was super duper good !!! They did such a great job putting on the show ! I thoroughly enjoyed myself ! And I'm not saying that cos we're course mates or anything. Seriously, the music, the props, the acting.....it was seriously GOOD ! Every time I remember Johnny Tiang's or Ching Hung's face, I feel like laughing all over again ! Very well done. I was super impressed. WOW. They just blew me away ! That was an awesome 2 hours spent on Wednesday !!! (Not like I was gonna be busy studying back in my room anyway =.=)


Here's the trailer they did for their musical comedy based on the short story The Fruitcake Special by Frank Brennan:




How awesome is that????? :D












Okay, back to what I was saying.




Now that Adrian's drama performance was over last Wednesday, there's nothing left to look forward to. Absolutely nothing.



See? Even just to go watch Adrian's musical comedy at Panggung Seni (which is barely a 3 minute walk from my room to the hall) that night, I put on my coloured lenses, wore ear rings and even eyeliner. I was just desperate to have something to go to. To dress up for.






It's super duper boring being by myself.


But I'm too lazy to leave my room.


Some days, I don't even use my voice at all. Unless I sing in the shower.






Sigh.


First paper's on Monday. Why do I not feel any urgency yet?

"To My Parents: I'm Not Your Damn Slave."

Image
I came across this video that not only shocked me, but, strangely, moved me (in a weird kind of way). A fifteen-year-old girl, Hannah, posted on her Facebook wall about how crappy and how unfair her life is, because she has to do school and  chores at home. She shared this with the entire world on Facebook but blocked her parents from seeing it. Unfortunately for her, her dad, Tommy Jordan, runs an IT company for a living, and, well, let's just say her plan failed. @.@ I would like to transcribe (from the video) what Jordan read from his daughter's Facebook wall: "To my parents, I'm not your damn slave. It's not my responsibility to clean up your shit. We have a cleaning lady for a reason--her name is Linda, not Hannah. If you want coffee, get off your ass and make it yourself. If you want a garden, shovel the fertiliser yourself. Don't sit back on your ass and watch me do it. If you walk into the house and get mud all over the floor that I just cle

This Old Man

I grew up with nursery rhymes. I don't remember actually learning them in kindergarten, but give me one line, and I'll be able to tell you the rest. Well, most of it anyway. I guess Tadika Kiddyhouse did a good job in teaching kids their nursery rhymes. (No, no, no understanding needed. Just rote memorization! Good job!) :D I can remember every word to "Hey Diddle Diddle". If you ask me nicely I can sing it for you :) Hey Diddle diddle The cat and the fiddle The cow jumped over the moon The little dog laughed to see such sport And the dish ran away with the spoon. One question though: Have you ever wondered what these children's nursery rhymes mean? We've always accepted the unacceptable in nursery rhymes. How a cat learned to play a fiddle, how a cow can jump over the moon, how a dog can laugh, and how dishes can elope with spoons. But one nursery rhyme that's kinda got me stumped is "This Old Man." This old man, he played one

Z

After staring at the webpage, unblinking, for the past few minutes, it’s now entirely a blur. I blink, and the small box in the corner seemed to dance in front of my eyes, inviting.   I take a deep breath, and release it with a hiss between my teeth. I swallow.  What do I have to lose?   Finally, I click on the box, and it pops up.   Hi, there. I’m Z. What should I call you?   Hi, Z. I’m Celine.   Hi, Celine. How can I help you today?   I pause for a moment, wondering if I should tell this stranger the truth. Something feels like it’s stuck in my throat, and I try desperately to clear it, unsuccessfully.   I’m not ready to talk about it yet. Can we just chat?   Sure, Celine. I understand. We can chat about anything you’d like. Well, how was your day?   My day? It’s been a tough one, that’s for sure. In fact, it’s been a tough week.  I scratch the top of my head, try to untie a knot I discovered in my hair, and give up.   It was okay, I guess. Not so good.   Why’s that?   I have a diffi
