Almost new years!

Almost new years.

Just a little piccy i forgot to put up last time =P

CHRISTMAS.

It has been a while since I've blogged! What has happened throughout December? Let's see..

Yeah, surprised Michael for his 18th (super belated.)

Pete survived 2 seconds of the beer bong.

Christmas Dessert Banquet - the most cake I've seen in my life.

The night, all set up.

Slogging my ass off at this joint.

Dancing and acting with friends and kiddies for the Banquet.

"Money makes the world go round" 

So it's been an exciting month to say the least, on top of going out and meeting the friends - soaking up a little sun just today (realising the ghostliness of my complexion) ..

With uni prefs locked in, Boxing Day shopping tomorrow, New Years at Jon's and Singapore just around the corner - this holidays has been the best of my life so far, and there's more to come! 

Cha-ch-ch-CHA

I am reminded of two things in the subsequent photo:

1) of the great beauty we can find in nature

2) of the quality that a point-and-shoot camera can give. I've been using my SLR so much, i've forgotten that you don't need always to twiddle with dials and modes to get a nice shot.

Which kinda is speaking to me now. It was really easy to whip out my small camera, snap this and keep walking. Yet if I had my SLR, I would have had to stop, twiddle with this, take a shot, possibly twiddle again and possibly take another.

Its the same with our lives - sometimes the simpler option is more rewarding than taking the bigger, bulkier, more impressive, more twiddly (thats my word for today) option. 

We might twiddle around so much, that we'll miss an opportunity, or miss the whole point of something, or miss something important. 

Sometimes its best to just leave the complications, mess and baggage of life and just take things as they came, snap it, and keep walking. 

Let it die, and get out of my mind

We don't see eye to eye 

Or hear ear to ear 

Don't you wish that we could forget that kiss 

And see this for what it is 

That we're not in love 

The saddest part of a broken heart 

Isn't the ending so much as the start 

It was hard to tell just how I felt 

To not recognize myself 

I started to fade away 

And after all it won't take long to fall in love 

Now I know what I don't want 

I learned that with you

Let It Die - Feist

Charles Lim, you have done an incredible cover of this song. Well done to you and the band.

I cannot sleeeep so I am mucking around on Aftereffects CS4 (oh yes, yes it is CS4).

BTW if anyone has 1.3gb spare download capacity I have a requestttt please do tell.

BRUNCH AT MY HOUSE 16 or 17th OF DECEMBER .

Winners announced when i'm bothered.

High School Musical 3: Senior Year - is OUT on the 4rh!

TETRIS.

It's wasting so much of it. Yet I can't stop!

I'm taking pleasure in making lines of colored blocks -

my life has sunk to a new low, with this new high.

Don't know what language he's speaking in, but basically he's saying:
"I get paid to do this. I don't actually know how to build stuff."
and you can hear the camera man go
"Coool"

Profiteroles .. they sh*t on sausage rolls

COMPLETE!

I lied Kamal. I'm so tired.

I've just returned from a city trek with Karvin, Cam, Furney, Taing, Mel, Wangy, Srinath and my BB4L Kamal. Ran into Munna, Brenevan, Leo and Ronson from last year too! That was cool.

Anyway, today was the CHEM EXAM. LAST EXAM EVER. And the feeling of finishing all my vce exams was.. bittersweet. More of the sweet ! Euphoric and surreal would explain the feeling of getting out of that hall and jumping into the longest (and hopefully most memorable) break of my lifetime so far.

Went to Yum Cha with an eclectic group: Kim, Michael, Rija, Kubra, Tina and Kelvin and.. Pat.
And for some reason i was down 13 dollars after doing some sort of gathering of money for the lunch. HM. A precursor to the losses coming later in the night ? I think so.

Kamal I said i'd post all the shizzle up like what you said and what I said but I can't remember anything we talked about that I should post here. So i'm just gonna maunder on cuz only you understand me. And my head hurts.
Mind you (not Kamal, you) its 1:37am right now. I couldn't sleep last night - slept at 3 ish woke up at 5am and was up ever since. 5am til 1am the next day is uh 20 hours? BUT I did have mentally exhausting pain of a chemistry exam and painting the town a very slight shade of red.

Did the chem exam with 2 hours sleep under my belt - best way to go I reckon (not).

Okay well I need to put a photo to make this interesting - um here.
I'll post something more meaningful and FUNNY next time - I'm half asleep right now but promised to write something or rather describing my day. I also lost money at Crown. *sigh* oh well. 3 weeks of work should be sufficient to build up about 800 bucks which is far more than what I've lost - nonetheless I've lost out on Crown quite horridly. Curse you casino, Curse you.

Now to get my phone to upload an interesting photo. But I'm real comfortable in bed. This post sounds so damn boring I'm rambling.

ASH & KAMAL LOST MONEY TONIGHT.

says the foggy sign in the train. 

its true. it hurts. oh well. work should be able to reimburse me 

money is temporary. love is forever.
