It’s already the last Friday of the holidays, and going back to scare is kind of a dilemma. I mean, advantage is you can see all your friends again.. but there are so many disadvantages that beats to that; we have homework, tests, projects, not to forget those $10 chocolate vouchers that I hadn’t been selling, haiz.
It’s been after awhile since being down and out, and things are a bit more stable now.. I don’t get emotional too much these days, sorted things out with Ben and everything’s fine now. I don’t think he likes me, but I’m reading this book that says you should look at the better possibility than the worse. So I took that advice and am hoping for the best. Come to think of it, my Times voucher were ALL spent on self-improvement books… it’s kind of tragic.. I should’ve gotten a good novel. But then one shouldn’t look back in life too much and say “I should’ve done this and done that then it wouldn’t had been so bad..” those kind of stuff.
My brother screwed up the keyboard again… he’s always banging one it, now the @ is “ and the “ is @... my old keyboard problems are back.. I really should get some kind of refund for this mixed up keys… irritating.
I did say I watched ‘The Day After Tomorrow’ right? Well, I wanna watch it again sometime before it gets out of the cinemas.. Josephine says she sometimes watches movies herself too, and I feel like I should do it sometime. You might think this is lame, but while I writing this, I’m like hearing the ‘Beautiful’ song by Christina… it’s kind of inspirational.. you hardly hear these kind of songs on radio anymore.. they play junk like sexy stuff and a bit too much hip hop..
Okay, back to ‘The Day After Tomorrow’.. it’s really the greatest movie ever. I mean Sam has a crush on his classmate and he actually joined this brainy competition with her (and another black guy) because he likes her. Unbelievable, she should be touched. Then comes this big storm in the movie and it pulled them all together even more; the librarians with them, the old beggar, and the four teens who went for the brainiest competition thingy. PLUS all the great effects and disasters in the show, it’s awesome. It must be weird because only the Western cultures were affected by the Ice Age, maybe it was a sign that was showing that the leading countries of the world are finally under our steps.. nah, it won’t spoil my wish of staying in Australia for a few years.
Speaking of Australia, there was this guy who came for the English course and he said no one wants to employ people with Australian diplomas.. it seems the education level there is so low no wonder everyone’s moving there from Singapore. What I’d do is get my arts diploma in Singapore, or in U.S or anywhere else and then I’ll go Aus to work.. you see? Just one Australia commercial (the very famous ‘I can see a rainbow’ one) and I’m so tempted.. show’s how influential I can be.
Daniel Bedingfield and BBMak are like the best male singers and now BBMak’s gone, and Daniel isn’t anywhere in sight. Hell, he didn’t even make a music video for ‘I Can’t Read You’ OR the even better ‘Never Gonna Leave Your Side’ both were great hits, and BBMak had some fantastic ones too. M2M also has vanished somewhere after a very nice track ‘Do You Know What You Want’. This is just too much to handle. Anyway I wish they all come back or we can turn back time because I remembered P6’s Chinatown trip very well.
Back then we had Kenneth Ong, Brandon Heng, Daryl Lim P.S and Terrence and David and Joseph the twins. It was great, and while we were on the bus chatting about innocent topics (and I’d emphasize ‘INNOCENT’ for these days) and then O-Town’s ‘We Fit Together’ was on, and it somehow described the scene at Parco Bugis – you know the class tunnel thing with shops? That time there was almost no one there and we invaded the shops for the 10 minutes break. We were like the most compatible batch then, and Mrs Lim was like someone we loved to joke with and things are just blissful.
Now, teen-age is very very complicated, you have all this problems and some people just go on and on about dirty stuff and ‘dude talk’ and all that. Stupid. Idiotic bunch of people that are really mentally deprived. So things might not be as fun as before but we’ll try to live by it. Haiz, I saw David and Joseph a few months back (I hadn’t seen them since they went to SJI) and I didn’t talk to them. Haiz.. can’t keep contact leh!
