happiness.

i suppose happiness is an entirely subjective thing. i also suppose that the benchmark for happiness will vary with time. so, it'seither that my benchmark has heightened, or that i'm starting to see things in a different perspective- one that didn't use to be my own. sk

change.

Another week flew past, and looking back on the past two weeks, i think i have done many things that leaves much more to be desired. I'm not just talking about school work per se though. School has been intriguing! I really do honestly enjoy learning new things with each lecture. I am having fun in lectures! =D So let me dedicate a short something for each of my lecturer. Physiology: my lecturer's one funny man! seriously! his sense of wit, sarcasm and humour is unparalleled, [yes, even by me! =D]! I haven't once sat through a lecture without wondering in amazement, what sort of person he exactly is. Lol, like for example, when he was teaching us about how multiple excitations from various neurones can arrive at a single post synaptic membrane. He links this to multi- tasking. "how amazing the human body don't you think? that we're able to do so many things at one time. Like how i find it exceptionally amazing that some students can be looking at me a...

THE SHOCK DOCTRINE

Hello Earth! Indeed, the almighty important one has been missing in action for a substantial period of time. But they all say- absence makes the heart grow fonder aye? =D I'M SURE. So here i am, attempting to, once again, resurrect and keep to the commitment of updating this place. Hopefully. =) Anyways, I'm currently reading this book called THE SHOCK DOCTRINE, by Naomi Klein. A background on this book: SHOCK. Yes, shock is the all and everything that embodies the contents of this book. No, it's not what I'll class as fiction. It revolves around events that are occuring in the here and now of the world today. Having said that it is not fiction, i must say, that the contents of the book is about as unreal and shocking, if not more, than fiction. In fact, the reality of the situation is what enhances the sense of shock one should feel when one reads the book. She reports to us the dirty little secrets of the real world that people, or rather, I, dont pay ...

the return of randomness.

HOHO! this place has been forsaken for quite a while hur?! right! cpr attempt no. 1! so! how has relief teaching for 2 months been? mm, enriching... in a way... tiring definitely. relief teaching isn't as easy as it seems i feel. at the very least, i managed to make something very clear for myself. I WILL NOT BE A TEACHER. no. unless it's an absolute desperate measure (which then brings me to pray all the very best for a decent a level results). not entirely because i don't enjoy the job. i do. i do think that the sense of fulfilment one gets in teaching, is probably unparalleled in other jobs. but the amount of *^*$^#-ness in exchange for that fulfilment, doesn't feel entirely worth the while. ie, i find myself &%#$^$#* rather than OSH! most of the time. so i would say, teaching is emotionally draining- for me that is. probably due to my manner of working. i have the habit of putting in too much of my expectations in the things i do. that just doesn't help me a...

test

been a while since a last blogged; within the short few months, many things happened and many things have changed. i feel like i have aged many years over in this past few months. shall i admit now? how tired i really am? i am. truly. enough.

KAW KAW KAW! don back my contacts, mm, did little chgs here thr... yea~ my point is, life is pretty mundane around here lol.. tried out diff genres of music. jason strongly recommended metallica once b4. expecting it to blast my eardrums to smitherins (duno how to spell either- crap). so i turned the volume to mid range, n braced myself. - then i found myself falling asleep. lol. no la not really. just that they were more soothing than i expected, almost like a lullaby, not too bad, not exactly boring, but their songs r loooonnnngggg... n i have a short attention span. =) not exactly to my taste, but i don't reject it. =) speaking of songs- jay's ne...

(haha, jo don't say i nv mention u!! tuu wit tuu wit, you tuu wit ur way!! =DD) ANYWAY! post a levels are... as good as i think they can get =D an entire day of slow paced, nothingness. ahhhh~ tantalising. my idea of a proper life- no life! =DDD haw haw haw. 2 years in JC wasn't exactly a bed of roses. academic demands were crappy, and when coupled with cca demands, school demands, people, etc, it almost threatened to suffocate- but yea, at the end of it all, i wouldn't disagree that it had been a most interesting and unique experience. JC life for me was especially fulfilling. the a levels period saw me working my ass off (not literally- though i wish =D quite the opposite hapened HAHA)- which was something quite new, considering that slacker had once been my middle name.
