had a pretty edifying conversation with a friend last night...it was good..mostly good...parts of it was good...sorta helped me sort out some nagging issues i had..for some reason, the capacity to vocalise them only came last night...after alot of hesitation (?) yea...but it felt good that some load was lifted off my shoulders.......am i demanding...?? yet, from what i remember of 1st yr econs..no demand = no supply...supply of what??....whatever im demanding of course....like, if i dun demand...black & white peanut m&m's, the balck & white peanut m&m's wouldnt come would they......??? hmM....

trust n obey
it's weird how things may be going so well one minute, but change in the next instant...does that then mean the good times weren't actually that good..?? hence a little upset turns everything topsy turvy?? friendships crumble..relationships fall apart..
i like roller coaster rides..the way it makes my stomache do cartwheels...sorta like when you first fall in love...*small smilE* or the crucial moment you press 'send' on your mobile after scrolling thru your phonebook..to realize in your haste, the msg's on its way to the wrong recipient....then you furiously jam your 'end' button hoping it'll say 'Message sending failed'....alas, often that doesnt happen tho.....like once the safety bars on a roller coaster come down on you..you're stuck in that seat till the ride's over....personally, physical conditions are easier to overcome than are emotional ones...anyways....
uni officially begins tmr...altho i dun have classes....and i noe i've been whining about it for so long...going on & on..it's finally here tho...*eEwwW*..hahaha..thanx for listening my fwens.....*hugS all round*
alot of ups & downs this pass week..weird how things turn out...how they flip upside down..inside out...into a totally indistinguishable state...one you never thought was possible before..it's damn sad...!! *sigh*

who da bloob/blob
yea...uni's starting again...like, nex monday...crapP...so dun wanna start mugging and all..and i really wanna buckle down this sem (peak: yes i will..) less clubbing for me...(all you skeptics & cynics: yes i really will cut down!! ) haha...plus, have classes 4 days a week...BUMMER!!! soO...it's gonna be a hard 12 weeks..then again, cant wait for the nex hols when it'll be really long, peeps; i promise to come back asap and leave as late as possible aiite....:)
have been chilling at home the past few days...renting dvds and jus, nuah-ing at home...helps that the household's up only from like, 2pm-ish....i remain firm in my stand that i'm jetlagged...yes, it is possible, despite only a 2hr time lapse...hahaha..at least for me it is... ;)
watched 'love atually' -again- but i really like that show..altho!!! all you guys would noe that the airport can be a very veeery sad place...if only the producers went to the departure hall to see everyone splitting up...talk about blatantly one-sided......oh well, i reckon i have my fair share of airport experiences....quite a myriad actually....hMm....both with sending off n receiving pple....
airports hold a really special place in my heart....i think everyone has their own perception and interpretation of it.....all sorts of emotions are involved and like, stuffed in a blender....some parts get extra blended n chopped up, whilst others get stuck in some corner of the blender & dun get mixed up properly...those remain a chunk; and always will remain that way...they often go unnoticed..and when you try pour the mixture out of the jug thingamajid, it tneds to get stuck...and plonks into the container of whatever sort, causing a huge mess/splutter......point is, the bloob doesnt get to choose to become a bloob..au contraire, it gets forced into being a bloob, it got shoved in the corner...maybe cause it's something that jus cant blend cause it doenst blend.....mayb it wasnt supposed to even go into the blender!!!!
okay, i dunno....rambles of the very absent minded mind....
ps: bloob or blob......bloob...blob......hmM..........*sheepish look* sorry la...dun use"bloob/blob" very often hehe...apologies!!!!
