Place your stake

I hope the lecturer wont faint when marking my paper. I dont think i could have done any better. In a test, there’s no such thing as a “I’m not so sure about the answer“. Its either “I know” or “I don’t know“. Sitting for a test is similar to gambling at the casino with a 50-50 chance of either winning or losing. The stake is our marks. If you know how to play, you’ll score. If not, you’ll lose.

I’m diligently studying for tomorrow’s test. The word “Investment”, “Analysis” and “Finance don’t sound interesting at all. But, i have no other choice than to swallow those concepts before sunrise.

Affected

At times, i would sleep with the radio on. Today, i woke up to the sound of Michael Jackson’s song. I was sleepy and wanted to head back to sleep. But, the news which came after the song left me stunned. I laid glued on my bed and was confronted with feelings of sadness instantaneously. I couldn’t believe my ears when i heard about  Michael Jackson’s passing.

I spent the rest of the day watching Michael Jackson on You Tube. Gosh, i love his astounding dance moves in Thriller.

While i was at it, i also found the Indian version to Michael Jackson’s Thriller?

As they played his songs all day, i remembered growing up listening to his music on the radio. As i watched the tribute made to him on TV, i could feel tears welling up in my eyes. I was affected. As though i lost something which means a lot to me in my life. He is a legend. A talent to remember.

Rest In Peace, Michael Jackson.

Its never too late

I received a call from my lecturer regarding H1N1 precautionary measures.

He asked, “So have you started studying for my module?”

I said, “Uhm, havent. I’m starting now actually”

and he replied, “Its never too late”

The part where i said “I’m starting now actually” began 3 hours later after the conversation ended. haha.

Doomed

Its Thursday already. I promised i would study.

I have motivation. But i lack concentration.

I cant stay at one thing for very long. I constantly exhibit signs of distraction when i could merely finish reading one page of the notes.

I’m doomed.

Read your own

Gosh. Its Tuesday. But it feels like Monday. Instead of studying for exams, i’ve been busy the whole day trying to read my own palm. Interested to know about yours? Then, let’s begin the reading.

Love line

How to read your love line:

1. If the line starts directly underneath the index finger, then you are content with your love life.
2. If your line begins right below the middle finger, this indicates a selfish and materialistic outlook when it comes to love.
3. A line that begins between the middle and index finger signifies that you give your heart away too easily.
4. If the line is straight and short, you have a high sex drive and aren’t particularly concerned with romance.
5. If the line points downward and touches your life line (which is on the bottom), then it’s easy for you to have your heart broken.
6. A line that is long and curvy indicates that you freely express your emotions and feelings.
7. A love line that is straight and parallel to the head line indicates that you have a good handle on your emotions.

Variations on the love line:

1. If your love line is wavy , you lack of serious relationships.
2. A broken heart line indicates emotional trauma.
3. Smaller lines that stretch above the heart line are reflective of happiness in love, but lines that stretch down from the heart line indicate disappointment.

Head Line

This line indicate your beliefs, morals and general attitude toward life.

How to read your head line:

1. A short line shows that you prefer working toward physical achievements rather than mental ones.
2. A curved, sloping line indicates creativity.
3. If your head line and life line are separated, you enjoy the taste of adventure and have great enthusiasm for life.
4. A wavy line shows that you have a short attention span and don’t enjoy deep thinking.
5. If you have a deep, long line that stretches horizontally across the palm, then your thinking is clear and focused. The straighter the line, the more realistic your thinking is.
6. Absent Line represents laziness and mental Imbalance.

Variations on the head line:

1. A broken head line indicates that you are inconsistent in the way you think and may have even suffered a nervous breakdown.

Life Line

This line starts will tell you about the quality of your life.

How to read your life line:

1. A life line that runs close to your thumb indicates that you are often tired.
2. If your line is curvy, you have a lot of energy.
3. A long, deep lifeline indicates that you’ll have a long, healthy life filled with vitality.
4. If the line is short and shallow, then it may indicate that you let others control your life for you.
5. If the line swoops around in a semicircle, you have tremendous strength and enthusiasm.
6. If the line is straight and stays close to the edge of your palm, you are cautious when it comes to relationships and often hold back from love.
7. If you have two or even three life lines, then this means you have extra vitality and positivity around you.

Variations on the life line:

1. A break indicates a sudden change in lifestyle, such as an accident, illness or heartbreak.
2. If you have lines that extend up and beyond your life line, then you are good at recovering from bad situations, but if you have lines that extend below your life line, you tend to waste energy.

I actually read my own palm! haha. If you want to find out more, you can GOOGLE it. Good luck! :)

Fat camp

I just got back from fat camp. I temporarily abolish my “No late night snacks” rule and gobbled up any food that was in sight. Usually, i would be very concerned about fat and sodium content. But the weekend made me a glutton.

Other than resting my bum at the chalet all day, i did put my energy to good use. I went cycling yesterday. Since i haven’t cycled for a very long time, i just remembered how tiring it can get.

When we finally found a great place to enjoy the sun, we got chased by two black dogs. We abandoned the place and paddled our bicycles.

The best part of the evening was the BBQ.

After the BBQ,  we left the chalet for a midnight movie. Sara bought popcorn and since she was sitting beside me, it was hard to keep my hands off the popcorn box.

After the movie, the adults went to sleep while the young ones were awake playing ‘The Game of Life’. Ok, i stuffed my mouth with marshmallows during the game. I was feeling so hungry already (after the box of popcorn)!

Now, you can’t tell me i wasn’t being a glutton. haha.

You win some and you loose some

When you lose weight, assets shrink

I found these on various columns. All were answering to the same question: “When you lose weight, what part of your body do you notice it from first?”

“My face is noticeable thinner. Also, I have lost a lot in my boobs! I’m quite sad about that really, I loved them!!!!”

“I’m right there with some of you ladies, I loose my in my boobs… It’s never the actual places you want to loose it from first… That’s just how it works I guess… You win some and you loose some…”

“When I lost my weight it was face, boobs, belly and ass – not in order. I don’t know but it all happened.”

“Mine has come off my face and waist first, but just below my ribcage, which makes my hips look very disproportionate. Anyone else look like a little head on a big body?”

“First to thin out was my cheeks and my nose (some how my nose got thinner). Then i lost my stomach but not my hips… so i look disproportionate”

“Well, apparently mine came off my ass…. My mother started saying that I have a flat ass”

“My face loses weight pretty quick which is weird because i have a really small face. when i lose weight there, i look sick.”

Conclusion? When you lose weight, you may lose your assets. Smaller boobs or butt. I’m beginning to think that toning up would be better. Its like sculpturing. haha.

What got into me?

I’m sure i am not Cinderella today. But i had the motivation to clean!

I dumped my stinky bedsheets into the washing machine, changed the curtains, swept my room and even cleaned the toilet. Yes, i repeat. I cleaned the toilet. I scrubbed the tiles and toilet bowl. I dont know what got into me. I wasn’t lazy to do housework.

Pucker face

Went grocery shopping again. This time round, with my sister. Bought oranges, lemons, a can of baked beans (again) and cereals.

Know what i have in mind for breakfast tomorrow? Milk and cereals! I’m excited to have those! I know, it is normal to have cereals for breakfast. Nothing special. But its been a looooong time since i last had them for breakfast. So, it is something different for me.

Made fresh orange juice in the afternoon! I enjoyed throwing fruits into the fruit blender. I can even waste the whole day thinking about new kinds of fruit juice to ‘invent’. I’ve came up with these and by far are my favourites! It gives you a pucker face but beneficial to health.

1) 1 orange + 1 lemon + 1 green apple

2) Strawberries + 1 orange + Half a lemon

Do share with me if you can think of any great combination. I would want to try and dump them into the fruit blender!

Easy as it is

I’m stuck at home. No one cooked. I was hungry.

Went grocery shopping in the afternoon and walked back with a handful of plastic bags. I was carrying a can of soup, baked beans, a 1.5 litre of bottled distilled water, oranges, green apples, lemons and toiletries. Oh boy, they were heavy.

I wanted to cook an easy meal because i was starving already.  Eventually, i made cream mushroom pasta. Its easy. All you need is some pasta and a can of Campbell cream mushroom soup. Boil the pasta and cook the cream mushroom soup. When everything is done, pour the soup over the pasta. You can even sprinkle some shredded cheese on it if you want to. Tada! It is that simple and delicious!

Dinner was weird because it was more like breakfast. I had toast with margarine, baked beans and scrambled eggs. It doesn’t matter. I was more concerned about satisfying my hungry stomach. haha.

Now, i’m thinking about tomorrow. What should i cook tomorrow?

You dont purposely say something i want to hear

I cant help it but to have a smile in my heart whenever you look at me and say “You’re pretty”. It gives me an assurance that you still love me although i  know i am flawed.

”I love you for who you are” – That’s what you  would say to me whenever i complain. Hearing that constantly reminds me that you love me for who i am.

You dont say words that i want to hear. You say words that i need to hear.

Know the difference?

Anyway, went for two movies with boyfriend during the weekend. ‘Drag me to hell’ was not scary. I find it hilarious and disgusting instead. On the other hand, ‘State of Play’ was awesome! How i can say un-awesome to Ben Affleck! haha.

When everything is fresh

Didnt return home last night. I was out having good food and fresh air. A comfy place to sleep and nice bolster. Was back only in the afternoon.

The machine which swallowed and vomit

Both of us were behaving like a merchant’s wife. Started the day with a trip to the saloon. Followed by a trip to nail palace to do our nails. Window shopped, bought movie tickets and had lunch. We went to the jackpot room to try our luck. Pulled the lever and within seconds, our coin was GONE. Looked at others play the jackpot machine and we could see some winning coins. Its like the machine was swallowing and vomiting out coins at the same time. How i wish we had a lucky coin which could bring us more than what we put in. haha. Dream on!

Get me yellow balls

I need to blend lemons using the fruit blender to get pure lemon juice!

I’ve read that lemon juice is good for skin and health! You can either apply lemon juice onto your skin or drink it. Both will help you externally and internally.

Lemon juice contains one of the Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHA) which is citric acid. It helps the skin to rejuvenate, flake off old skin and grow new skin. It improves the skin’s metabolism, takes care of excessively oily skin, flushes out pores and keeps your skin feeling fresh. Lemon juice can also be used to generally bleach the skin and make it lighter in colour.

You can use the lemon juice remedy for internal cleansing or detoxifying of the liver and for absorption of important minerals and vitamins.

For better skin and health, i’m going to drink lemon juice! On top of that, i’m determined to skip at least 300 times per day with my skipping rope. I’m determined to do stomach crunches. I’m determined to have at least 8 hours of sleep and drink plenty of plain water.

Sounds impossible?

Hope not.

Watch me do it. Its an investment baby. Instead of investing money, i’ll invest efforts.

OMG, i think i am desperate.

Got to move it

My legs got tired after shaking them so much. I think i’m getting old. haha.

Happy 2 years Anniversary

When you meet love, Your heart will let you know. You cannot fall out of love, Once you learned to love that special someone, it takes over you and it will never leave you.

He’s the same boy who broke my heart years ago because he played hard to get. A few times i was thick skinned when i told him i actually fell for him but he never showed any response. I thought we would never end up together and started convincing myself that he would be the last person on earth i’d picture myself with. I gave up on him and told him, “If we’re meant to be together, we’ll be together no matter what happens”. True enough, after we walked away from each other lives, we met again after a long time and fell for each other for real.

Happy 2 years anniversary darling.

What a day

I thought a two-year journal about us would be a great anniversary gift for him. I’m such a perfectionist that i keep tearing the page whenever i wrote a word wrongly. When i saw number of pages left in the book was greatly reduced, I gave up.

What a day.

When no one can see me

I went to do my hair today. I’m glad that i’m finally over and done with that ‘lion king’ hair look.

Miss Octopus Legs

I’m not sure if ‘peaceful’ is the right word to describe my weekend.  Since Friday, i’ve been spending time watching movies online. I watch up to 3 movies a day. I sleep as late as 4 in the morning and wakes up in the afternoon. I have nothing to worry about – at the moment. I’m living life as it is.  I have so much time in my hands and there wasn’t any reason for me to rush into anything. My mind was totally off school. Nothing in my head was about reports, assignments, tests or whatsoever. So, it was indeed a peaceful weekend. Isn’t that wonderful?

Oh ya, yesterday i went to the Movies with Terence. Watched ‘Terminator Salvation’. I didn’t really have a good movie experience because the bit*h behind me kept kicking my chair with her legs. Its like she had long octopus legs which she could not keep it to herself. I cant be bothered to lean against the back cushion seat because whenever i do that, i can feel her octopus legs kicking it. Its great that i have good tolerance level. And for the benefit of others, i wouldn’t want to shout and disrupt anyone’s viewing pleasure at any point. I wish Miss Octopus Legs could be more considerate.

Ok. I admit. I have nothing else to type about. If i type further, i’ll be typing nonsense. So, off i go.

Began before it even does

I self-declared the last week of school as the start of my holidays.  Its not official and not stated in the school calender. But, you’re more than welcome to join me if you want to. I literally skipped school the entire week and hibernated at home. Gosh, i was unwilling to wake up for school today. But i had to! What a drag!

On the way back home from school, i heaved a sigh of relief. I’m not going to see the school building for the next 3 weeks. Nothing else can beat that feeling of happiness! Holla to holidays! You’re so near that i could smell you now. haha. Its the smell of liberty.

But, damn it. I still have assignments to complete online next week and tests to study for. CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT? There’s tests after the holiday! Cheater bug. Gave us holidays but made it into a so-called ‘study break’ kind of holiday.

Hello! I’m paying school fees. I need a real holiday. A real school term break  would be great, please.

Puss in boots

I skipped school to complete the nearly due reports. While i am supposed to diligently work on it, i end up at Bugis Street shopping with my partners in crime.

If you’re wondering why i’m wearing those geeky glasses.. it’s because i have a big pimple somewhere in between my left eye and cheeks. It is so huge that it made my eye and the entire area swollen! I burst it and puss with blood oozed out. Sounds disgusting right? So, i wasn’t making a fashion statement actually. I was covering a huge zit with it. ha ha.

Prediction of fate

Guess what the horoscope at my Facebook page said?

Yesterday

Your family troubles may smooth over today when someone steps outside of their traditional posture of denial at long last and admits that they need help. It is a good thing that you have been busy looking into the options for them, they will finally be ready to listen.

Today

You can take on a leadership role in your family today, and provide good advice or be a good role model for someone who desperately needs to take better care of themselves.

Yeah, right. It is all a coincidence. Its like the horoscope can read my mind. What a coincidence.

Tomorrow

You may discover that there is a nice group of people who share your interests, hobbies, or spiritual interests in your community. This could be an incredibly lucky place for you to meet new people, hear new ideas and make new friends right now.

Whatever it is, tomorrow’s horoscope seems like a better one. I’m looking forward to that.

No names mentioned

I dont cry when i get sad. I will only cry when i get disappointed. At the moment, i am disappointed. Disappointed by you. Aren’t you ashamed of yourself? You’re supposed to be a role model, but you are not. I dont think i will ever listen to you because i dont see any truth in your words. Dont ever tell me what is wrong when you’re not even doing the right things for yourself. I dont see the point of ever listening to you. Dont say you care, because if you care, you would think twice before you land yourself into this. You know this would affect us. Yet, you are not able to weigh the consequences properly, given your age and wisdom. Have you ever spare a thought for us or ever sit and think about what we think of you? When you were not there in the past, it was quite heartbreaking. When you’re back, you’re not making things any better. It think its way more heartbreaking than not having you around.

Do spare a thought for me. Life is not easy for me too.  You’re affecting me on top of all the stress i get from school. If not, at least do spare a thought for those who have stood by you throughout these years. How can you hurt those who have always been there for you? How can you cause so much difficulties to those who have always cared and helped you one way or another? You owe us a good deed. To repay that, you can start changing.

I’m going to feel annoyed by your presence. In my eyes, you behave badly although you’re not a bad person. Because you behave badly, i dont think i would want to talk to you anytime soon. I guess i can say, i feel a  little hatred because of the things you did. Dont confront me and say that i shouldn’t keep any hatred. I have the right to hate because you’re a big big disappointment.

There you go. I’ve let it out. I dont care who reads this. Its titled, ‘No names mentioned’. So, dont bother guessing who it is about. I wont even tell you if you were to ask me.

Talk to someone

I guess i’m feeling upset over something.

You wont understand.

Plaster on my feet

Monday morning… what a drag. This week should be a busy week though. I’ll be busy filling up my empty lectures notes. How many lectures have i missed? I cant remember. I dont even know whats going on and which chapter they are at.

Anyway, i stepped on a hair clip yesterday. It pierced through my feet. I thought nails or needles can pierce through easily but i didnt know that a plastic clip can pierce though that deep. I pasted a plaster on my feet but when i started walking the blood went through the plaster. No wonder the part of my feet that was plastered felt ‘mushy’.

Probably one of the worse weekend i ever had. Fullstop.
