hello! i'm very sorry i am not zk =p anyway unfortunately i'm not at work now but im blogging from home AFTER work so achaly i'm bloody tired so i shant write much hahaha just popping by to type some rubbish.

anyway i conclude tt my heels are all jinxed coz sth bad always happens when i wear them to work, my fav comfy pair had a snapped strap, another pair that i was wearing only for the FOURTH time went and got its heel broken, another one gave me blisters (ok but tt's normal) and i killed my foot by accidentally stepping rather hard on its heel (which was long and thin)....

i think this year is really a very significant year, haha ok i dunno how to explain. it's possibly like one of the first years in our lives that we really get to decide what to do and yeah it's a rather defining year la, coz there's so much uncertainty and what happens after this yr and even possibly for the rest of our lives depends so much on what happens NOW, yet at the same time this yr just feels like a rather......floaty...... year. not only career wise la, more of the people around you and your relationships with them.

aiya ok tt sounds so depressing so i'll continue w more loser happenings at work. maybe my job itself is jinxed too hahaha coz loserish stuff happen more than usual as well. once i was on the bus to work and i was v sleepy so i wasnt paying attention to where the bus was, i thought my stop was reaching so i pressed the bell but anw it was the wrong stop and it was some super ULU stop that NO ONE else wanted to get off at, hahaha so i just kept quiet and pretended to be invisible when the bus stopped at that stop, den the woman beside me kept looking at me and glaring at me...HELLO AUNTY AH PRESS WRONGLY ONE TIME CANNOT IS IT. andden another time after work i realized my ezlink had negative value and i only had 40cents and ten dollar notes. so i tried to change money with this girl but ha obviously she didnt have change so she ended up donating money to me for my bus fare in the end. hahahha i miss student fare days............but anw yup yay i was v happy (NOT COZ I SAVED 50 CENTS OKAY) to meet such nice people on the street! :)

ok wah i typed q a lot in the end actually hahaha ok byebye nites!

haha yesyes i feel exactly the same way as you..i felt like i already did all i could in preparation to get in and all (haha i sound so practical now) but yeah i guess i probably screwed up my interview (my hp rang halfway! zk's fault!)...my appeal was denied too..actually i kinda accepted that i was going accountancy oredy and there're more reasons than one why i would wanna study that too..but still, i think i still harboured that teenyweeny tiny hope that my appeal might have been successful..getting rejected again just made me disappointed for a few hours haha..den i kinda thought that perhaps, it's fated after all..even if i think i can be a good doctor and all cos i really wanna help ppl, i probably wont make the best doctor cos ultimately i think family time is more impt..and i always believe that everything will turn out fine in the end!

anyway charlotte! law is a very good course to go into lor! though i personally wont la cos i don like writing essays and stuff haha..but i think its challenging and fulfilling too..u'll probably enjoy urself more in law too..cos the people there all very naughty! smoke and drink one! haha! ok la jk jk..but ALL THE BEST ok! i think we'll all still be happy people decades down the road and we'd most probably have forgotten this whole episode of rejections after rejections..

and please la zikai the swaku doesnt even have a blogspot account! even if he has i bet he wont know how to access the dashboard in the first place! haha...

hahaha this has become our personal blog man. ask zikai to come also then the index number row can just use this blog -_-

ya anyway deborah i know what you mean. i think the post a's has been seriously demoralising for everyone ... except of course the ppl who got cambridge and IMPERIAL and everything la. hahaha vipul. anyway i didn't get med either and i appealed too. but actually i was quite happy i got law instead. then somehow now, when my appeal is denied i feel sad again. i hope the rest of the class doesn't read this blog anymore man. it feels weird putting emotions on display. haha. but ya life goes on, just have to get over it i guess.

in the beginning you'll always wonder what you did wrong. maybe cause you dint do enough attachment, dint sound sincere blabla. then you will wonder if its cause god wants to punish you for not helping someone across the road or talking bad about other ppl or leaving yr bus ticket wedged in the bus seat five years ago. then you just become angry with everybody. and then in the end, 1 year from now, you don't care anymore.

good right. hahaha

okay PLS BLOG MORE LEH.

haha i tot nobody visits the blog oredy so i oso never bother posting anything!

anyway, so i'll take 2 minutes (as you requested :p) to update this blog of what's happening in my life...

hmm i applied for med..but din get thru the interview..was very disappointed initially but got over it in 2 days though the feeling of being lousy kinda lingered on..like i din noe wad i did wrong and stuff..and its not that i was insincere and evil or sth..but in the end i told myself (self-consolation haha) that its probably fate and God's path for me..so i let it be...i appealed for med & am still awaiting the results..but i accepted accountancy in ntu oredy..quite contented with it already even if my appeal is not successful! what i like about it is that the course is only 3 yrs! den i can get more working experience too since i'll enter the workforce earlier..aiya shall just leave everything to fate and take things one step at a time..

but this whole period of applying for uni places, scholarships (i only applied for 3 lousy ones which other ppl wont even think of applying for and yet i din even get shortlisted for the interviews) has been quite a bad memory for me..it made me feel very inferior as compared to all my peers..achievements that i used to be quite proud of seem so small compared to those of everyone around me..and i felt damn helpless that all my applications were going nowhere..practically none of anything i applied for was successful and i felt quite lousy..

guess time heals all wounds! i think the whole episode taught me to be contented with what i have achieved, all the blessings in my life..and the path that we may be given now may just be a blessing in disguise, even if we had wanted so badly to do something else..after all, how much do we know about ourselves and the world to know truly what is best for us? ya..

haha ok it sounds like such a depressing entry..not my fault that i just had to fill in this ntu thing which required me to write down all my ccas and positions held and stuff which looked damn bleak and made me feel lousy all over again! haha

and congrats ys! i'm sure u'll make a good doctor :) can go and dance for ur patients and heal them!! haha...and charlotte! since u're probably one of the 3 ppl (ys, you and me) who still read this blog, what course have u accepted? haven heard from u in damn long! last time i saw u was A level results i think!

ONE YEAR LATER...

Omfg...one year has passed already... Nothing much has changed for me, im not sure about you guys:p Updates on my side, I am going into Imperial College London for Medicine, the term starts in October. And i just heard: VIPUL!!! YOU COMING?! HAHAHAH, damn happy man!

Well, hm, A levels start in 4 days time for me... chemistry is the first paper. My exams end on the 25th of June, the last paper is also chemistry( the subjects are split into different papers i.e. organic, rates etc...)

How are all of you guys doing? Mind updating on what you are going to do? which schools you going to? where are you guys now? somewhere in the middle of the plains of Africa? Guys? Army? Fun? Ghosts? Headless?

Aiya, just take the 2 mins to type can?:)

Here are some of my school photos, taken last week.

SOrry this one is a bit blur... the photos were on display in my house library, so at 4.30 am yesterday, or actually today, i went down to take the pics using my digi cam, and, tsk, hands shaky la...look at the bottom! Prefect leh! But no novelty in that la, essentially everyone in the top year are prefects.

A close up...

My favourite...

Clockwise from top: English, Nigerian, Chinese. hair at the bottom left hand corner - khazakstan.

I still got some more school photos. If you want to see, then when i come back you come to my house and see la haha!

OF COURSE got miss you guys la... Rj was so fun...Sigh.

ANyway, here are some facts that you may not know answer the question on why people dun like cheese:
"Cheese" is an evolved medieval term that was used to criticize and agitate people in the past. After countless centuries of mispronounciation, misspelling and mispronounciation, this medieval term has taken up many forms and sounds and incorporated into many different current languages and is often refers or represents something unpleasant or uncouth

Only English, the "Lingua Pura" is -eh- pure enough, innocent enough to interprete as something non- vulgar.
Evidence for this are everywhere, here is one example:

Think Hokkien. People often scold"CHI BAI, pardon me for this explitive.
"Chi Bai", unless i am very much mistaken, refers to the males -ahem-, which has various sexual connotations and therefore is actually a crude substitute for the word F***

Now think English. Doesnt the term "Chi Bai" have very similar pronouncitaion as the english phrase

-pause-

"Cheese Bun"??????

Humans are remarkable adaptable creatures and have a natural instinct to avoid disgusting and negative things.

Therefore it is only normal for people to shy away from cheese, which actually has actually quite a colourful history.

Next time the tuckshop aunty or any shop aunty asks you:" Do you want a cheese bun?"
Give her a weird look and slap her

:D
