Geek\Nerd\Whatever

I am not cool.

Happy Dilemma

The Dad be willing and wanting to buy another camera before the year end Melbourne trip! Now there is a happy decision to be made!!!

VS

What do you guys (484848) think?

Hold on.

I wish I told you so.

Point A to Point B

I've always held a certain fascination for landmines. A weapon not to kill but to maim. I'm not sure which is worse, but landmines seem to have this inherent cruelness about them and the way they are used. Maybe because most of the time victims are civilians not soldiers.

On Monday, for arms control we watched a documentary on landmine activists and some of the work they do. This brought back memories of a documentary I watched on Discovery not long ago. It's really heart breaking watching kids have stumps instead of legs and feet. When walking to school involves walking over a known mind field.

So go on. Be emo about being a poor student living in Singapore. Take everything for granted.

And some people wonder, "What's it like to get from Point A to Point B without help?"

NYA NYA

Instead of continuing to being a slave to my arms control essay, I started googling around cameras. More specifically, I was googling around to see if I could lay my hands on one of this:

It is the NYA NYA CAMERA. Cause nya is the Japanese sound for 'meow' and this camera makes assorted cat nya-ing noises whenever you snap a picture. HOHOHO.

The thing is. I can't find it anywhere online to buy. There are like a bunch of reviews for the camera, but no where I can buy it! Most of it only ships to the US. SADFACESADFACE.

Would you like a gargantuan meatball?

Watched "Cloudy with a chance of meatballs" with C and ML today. Hohoho. It was a last minute decision between C and I and we decided to bully ML into watching it with us. =DDD T'was not bad! Many bad puns, but it became characteristic of the show. However I am now much terrified of roasted chicken and gummy bears.

It's confirmed! I'm going to Melbourne AGAIN this December. With the family this time. We'll probably do the Great Ocean Road and Morrington area so I am still pretty excited! =D Road trips are always fun and the GOR is really very beautiful. Holidays with the parents also means I can relax and not think about budgets or schedules. Less freedom, but less worries. Give and take people!

EGAD! I slammed the sliding toilet door on my left thumb nail. So now it's cracked. I'm wondering if I should wipe off all my BRIGHT PINK nail polish, cut my nails short and colour them black/matte blue. But I just got my manicure exactly a week ago. And I actually like the pink. DDDD= My nails are strong, but kind of brittle. meh.

TODAY IS A GOOD DAY.

Days which start with good company and good food are excellent days. =D

Hatched with ms chan, michyyy, 珍珠 and best friend. I think every week should include a chilling session where we sit with coffee and talk about anything under the sun.

Next was off to me chan's house to see COCO. OMG I heartheartheart animals!! The dog is adorable! And bites. But still adorable. Besides, everything is good with ms chan's mother's legendary tea. A sip of it, and you're at peace with the world. =DDD

Okay so I haven't actually gotten down to doing any work or studying. But googling and looking at wall decals inspired me to finally put to use the decals michyyy got for me when she was in Macau! Hahas, finally! But that is not the best part! The best, most excellent, stupendous, result was me garnering enough motivation and PACKED ME ROOM. It's all spick and span! There are areas of floor and table I had no recollection off! =DDDDDDDDDD

Now let's see how long this lasts. hehs.

Now this is a whining post.

Fall is coming and I'm not somewhere that can experience it.

Take me there. Let's fly away.

Today the weather is on an extreme.

Once again in my life of a student I am faced with the motivation to impress my professor with my paper. My arms control professor is so knowledgeable it kind of hurts. My motivation might also stem from getting a =| after doing well for the presentation. Must balance the =| out!

Which explains my borderline crazy frenzy in stripping the library of all its books on CWC. Also explains why although I am low in moolaas, I cabbed home today. It's really no joke lugging those books back home.

Which also led to me meeting chatty cab driver. Which usually I dislike. A lot. But today's chatty cab driver was actually vvvv interesting. I think he knows more about cross-straits politics then I do! Hahas. This was great fun, except half the time he was rambling on in hokkien and all I could do was smile and nod. I don't speak hokkien. XD

THIS IS NOT AN ESSAY RELATED POST

Hahas. Finally. No datelines looming in immediate sight.

My fb and blog have been my constant outlets to whine and get attention about my essay writing-woes. But here be a breather! Oh god, I've missed this.

My nails are a hot bright pink right now. OPI's cherry blossom. Juan and I discovered OPI's suede collection which looks damn sexy, but I am still vvv much in love with C's Channel purple. HOHO.

Don't think I can bring myself to spend moolaas I do not have.

I have an itching urge to cook pasta like I did when I was in the UK. But once again $$ issues, one bottle of pesto is like $9. I totally need a source of income. But wait! I am totally looking forward to Hatched this weekend, since it promises good breakfast (EGGS EGGS EGGS) at a comfy moolaa level.

I sincerely think my laptop is acting up. It has come to a point when I can sense it's crankiness and have to restart it. Also, itunes decided to go funky and now all my playlists are GONE. I spent hours making them!!!!! The shuffle function is going on overdrive right now. One good thing is I am rediscovering all the music I did not realise I have, but must have downloaded at some point in my life. Like all the old chinese music I was into during secondary school. Like Savage Garden. Like random Japanese music from ZC.

It's good to be happy HAIRPEE. I am going to cut my hair. Maybe tmr. Who knows! =D

THIS IS A PLEA.

My professor wants me to write an essay based on material he provided in class. Having understood the material, he wants us to apply it to a real case.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND THE MATERIAL.

I understand like bits and pieces.

OH GOD. Why do I have so many datelines. It's like running a marathon and then a biathlon and then a triathlon, and oh LOOK! ANOTHER 300KM TO GO. YAY.

New shoes new shoes.

I am always vvv excited about buying new shoes. The pure happiness of just walking around in them in the house when they are brand new is worth every penny I paid for them. HOHOHO.

It's just even better when I don't have too. =D

Today I forewent two meet ups with friends for 1. School work 2. Family. Felt bad but priorities, priorities. Am I slowly losing any semblance of social life? Probably, but school work really needs to be a focus now.
