Happy happy joy joy

I am sooo happy right now. Am in a good mood because I just went to watch Lord of the Dance which was fantastic!!! I loved the part when the lord of the dance was fighting the dark lord.. and when the little spirit was rescued.. aaaaahhhh!! I feel so happy just thinking about it!!

Front (almost) row seats, good price, fantastic view.

HMV Hammersmith Apollo

Decided to list out all the other things that are making me happy at the moment.. Went to Shi's room to chit chat with her so, obviously, I'm loving my friends.. not that I don't love them other times.. just especially more so today.. not just her but all my other friends as well =)

Hmmm... what else..

Twilight of course!!

Vampire Knight (anime, manga AND soundtrack)

La Corda Doro.. yet another random anime..

Maybe Baby from Benefit

The prospect of going shopping after exams is just killing me!!! Am in desperate need for shoes.. Plus, jeans just became my worst enemy. I almost died coz it was so freakin hot while wearing them. Looks like it's gonna be shorts, track pants and skirts from now on..

Can't wait for the next episode of BGT too! With Gossip Girl, House, One Tree Hill and 90210 over, there's nothing else to watch.. Oh wellz.. next season..

And I love Lord of the Dance! No regrets going before exams are over. Not like I'll study on a Friday night anyway.. And the darkness of reality descends upon me.. Computing and Signals left.. last 2 papers..

Animal love

Ok.. I know this is a bit weird.. sometimes I don't blog for over a week and then suddenly 3 entries pop out of nowhere. I'm tired ok.. I need some form of distraction even though I already cannot finish studying but my brain is seriously on the verge of breaking down..

So.. I came across a bunch of my fav videos on youtube.. 

Aaaawwww.. is all I can say..

Cool.. but somewhat sadistic..

Did I mention I like monkeys?? They're sooo cute!!! Especially orang utans!! You can see more photos on www.zooborns.com =)

Woooowww!!!

Baby give mommy a kiss..

Muakz!!!

I DON'T WANNA SIT FOR MEDICAL SCIENCE!!!!!

Med Sci

I'm so depressed bout Medical Science on Friday.. Neuroscience, gastrointestinal, musculoskeletal, integumentary and reproductive systems. Not even Basement Jaxx can cheer me up =(


Those of you who know me are aware that I never liked Bio since SPM, I didn't take Bio for A Levels and I absolutely hate my course. Hello, 2nd year.. again! I don't wanna turn into my brother. Kill me now.. 

So far this week..

So far this week, I have had...

countless cups of coffee..

a LOT of Red Bull..

and very little sleep.

On the brighter side,

Steph Yen and I made chicken rice one day..

I discovered Alexander Rybak, 2009 Eurovision winner...

Dima Bilan, 2008 Eurovision winner..

I also found out that the most comfortable way to wear a shirt with itchy labels at the side and back is to wear it inside out! =P

Kiss

It's waaaay too late in the night... or waaaaay too early in the morning to be listening to emo songs!! Initially, I was listening to the song Edine posted on her blog: The Chain by Ingrid Michaelson. A few derivations later, I found myself listening to Because I'm a Girl by Kiss.. Omg.. Cried like a baby.. I think I slept too much yesterday which is why I'm still awake at this godforsaken hour of 3.30am. Emo emo emo.. Joanne having her last paper already and I still have 6 to go, including Heat and Mass at 2pm later today =(

Life's Brief Candle

Remember the poems we did for English Literature back in high school?? Life's Brief Candle was the most memorable one in my opinion.. or the most depressing.. I remember reading it over and over and over again till it got stuck in my head. 


Life's Brief Candle
by William Shakespeare

To-morrow, and to-morrow, and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time,
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more; it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

Come to think of it, most of the stories/ poems were quite depressing.. There was a poem about a funeral.. err.. a short story about some guy planning live in the Isle of Capri till his money ran out and then he would kill himself.. but then he didn't have the guts to do it so... There was also a story but children being sacrificed to a "rain god"..


Man.. I actually miss those days when we had to study English Literature.. classic stuff like Pride and Prejudice, Jane Eyre, White Fang, The Gifts and other stories, The Good Earth, Great Expectations... Even sastera was interesting.. especially Timulak Kapal Perang (think Paduka Mat Salleh, Andayu and Sabah!)..


Now I have to put up with Fick's Law, small signal equivalents, Michaelis-Menten kinetics etc etc etc... All I can say is.. bleh!

Working on the bed

After 3 papers, I still don't know where is the best place for me to work. My chair kind of sucks so I can't sit on it for too long otherwise I'll get restless.. I'll swing around, jump around (with the chair!) and get up constantly.. plus my desk isn't big enough for everything I need.

The dining table is filled with all kinds of junk so that's out. My only other choice: the bed. Ok.. maybe the bed is a bit big.. Everytime I leave something on it, I forget where.. I'll put some papers here, some notes there.. and poof!! It's gone! Especially my phone. Whenever anyone sends me a text, the message tone ends before I can find my phone. I've been using my housemate's phone to call mine so I can find it for the past few days.

Now I've got inkstains on my hands, my bed, even my knee.. that's how much writing I've been doing.. maths, maths, maths.. One problem with doing work on the bed. There's no place to sleep when it's bedtime! Sighz.. -_-

BGT

Ok.. this video is dedicated to Bernie and whoever else following Britain's Got Talent. I've posted this on Facebook already so I apologize if anyone's seen it already. It's just sooo cute.. >_<


Back to studying now.. I think I've been distracted long enough.. bleh..

Sorry If I Love You

I finally got the English subtitles for Scusa Ma Ti Chiamo Amore aka Sorry If I Love You. It's this random Italian film I watched on one of those long flights back home from UK.. Anyway, I thought it was a really sweet and romantic film.. a bit "wrong" at some parts maybe.. like the fact that the guy (Alex) is way waay older than the girl (Niki) but.. it's good for the most part. 

Sugarfree sang a song of the same title for the movie.. One of my fav songs. Hehe.. Maybe you'll get what I mean after listening to it..



Here's the English translation:

Excuse me for calling you my love
I don’t know what else to say
excuse me for having given you a name
I only say it’s you
you re-shape my destiny
and put colour in the desire within my eyes
I’m not cold now
as I’ve learnt to cry
and I’m not afraid when 
I feel like I’m being reborn
now I play along
I let my heart rush towards you
names come in my pocket too late
now I’ve got freedom
you can take it away whenever you want

A life to be re-written
inside your one thousand page heart
I’ll tear the poems which speak of us
of an ageless love

Excuse me for calling you my love
and I can’t say anything else
excuse me for not being able to have
the same years as you do
but I still have that instinct
to fly like a free kite
love is not conventional
it’s got no limits
it flows in our hearts now

A life to be re-written
inside your one thousand page heart
I’ll speak of a love which
surpasses the distance and never stops
never stops

I’ve got a life to be re-written 
inside your one thousand page heart
I’ll tear the poems which speak of us
of an ageless love

Excuse me for calling you my love
I don’t know what else to say
excuse me for having given you a name
now you can call me too.

Not a good day

AAAaaarrrrgggghhhh!!!! I can't wait to move out of this dump!! Bloody h***!!! Last night, Brian's destructive aura destroyed the light in my room so I was plunged into darkness for the night with nothing but the desklamp for light. 


This morning, while making breakfast, Echo decided to cook noodles. She left the kettle near the eggs and I got burnt while reaching for the eggs without looking. Then after I fried an egg for Stephanie, I got burnt by the frying pan while turning off the stove. The blister may look small but it hurts and annoys me like h***!


I proceeded to buy a bulb at the small household appliances shop behind my place but they didn't have it.. so I had to walk to Sainsbury's to get it. Once there, I spent God knows how long trying to find the correct one. Being the genius I am, I forgot to bring the bulb AND my phone!! Simply bought one in the end.. 15W instead of 18W but who cares..


Ok.. so I got the bulb.. screwed it in after a lot of swearing and cursing.. Then, while I was putting the cover back on, the cover slipped, broke and glass was everywhere. One thousand swear words later, I gathered the pieces together and got tiny cuts all over my hands.


Geez... I'm so pissed and annoyed with everyone and everything at the moment.. Everytime I look at the ceiling, I feel like strangling/ punching/ beating up someone.
