Heavy

So I'm finally back home, and as I was thinking about transporting my books (my big fat medical textbooks), I decided that I would probably put them in the back seat. This decision was then conjugated with the take-home message of an article regarding unrestrained items in the back seat acting as projectiles in the event of an accident.

My wonderful mish-mash of a brain then produced this gem of a cliche as my eulogy:

She was crushed by the sheer weight of knowledge.

Mad World

It's a nice song to listen to while waiting for the impending doom of EOS:P

Mad World by Gary Jules
All around me are familiar faces,
Worn out places,
Worn out faces,
Bright and early for the daily races,
Going nowhere,
Going nowhere,
Their tears are filling up their glasses,
No expression,
No expression,
Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow,
No tomorrow,
No tomorrow,
And I find it kind of funny,
I find it kind of sad,
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had,
I find it hard to tell you,
I find it hard to take,
When people run in circles,
It's a very very,
Mad world,
Mad world,
Children waiting for the day they feel good,
Happy birthday,
Happy birthday,
And I feel the way that every child should,
Sit and listen,
Sit and listen,
Went to school and I was very nervous,
No one knew me,
No one knew me,
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson,
Look right through me,
Look right through me,
And I find it kind of funny,
I find it kind of sad,
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had,
I find it hard to tell you,
I find it hard to take,
When people run in circles,
It's a very very,
Mad world,
Mad world,
Enlarging your world,
Mad world..

Narnia!!

Confession: I watched it before the CNS exam. On Tuesday night. Yay!

A quick google reveals that it was filmed in Britain and NZ, which is hardly surprising. Pretty scenery! Nice music! A cast who is generally rather attractive! (Skandar Keynes<3 It's actually kind of alarming that he's 3 years younger than I am:/)

And Ben Barnes (who plays Caspian) is in his late twenties. Eat that, Boris! :P

The movie itself was entertaining, if not completely loyal to the book's progression of the plot. The entire castle raid never happened, and wth Susan and Caspian!!!111

I'm told that Ellice made little sounds of dismay when they smooched, lol.

The whole White Witch thingie never got quite that far in the book, but I suppose they're trying add more suspense to the movie... All well and good, but I can't say I approve completely. Oh yes, I forgot to mention how every half an hour or so, someone will say, "Peter! You better come quickly!". No wonder the boy has grandiose delusions.

On another note, the costumes are sooooo freaking gorgeous! Kudos to the designer and the attention to detail they put in. I never thought that I would think armour looked good!:p Why doesn't someone make costumes like that for NWN2? Why? Even having them in Sims 2 would make me a very happy bunny.

Sigh, must start studying for EOS, but I don't want to ;_;

Amazement

Yes, I'm still alive:P CNS exam is around the corner and I feel SO LAZY.

Nope, nothing new there. I procrastinated blogging some dreams and now I can't remember them! ;_;

On another note, two of my fanfictions are up for Favourite Fics of 2007 on LucasForums. Click here to see the nominated fics and for links to them. *beams* (my username there is Bee Hoon, but I bet you already guessed). And of course, you could be really nice and just read the stories :P And everything else that I have written. *whistles*

Damn, I always feel so...cheap when I shamelessly advertise my own work:/

Good luck for CNS, everyone!

I am being so unkind, and I don't really care.

Yeah, yeah, blame the migraine, but I'm the bitch.

Plastic

...is the way it seems. Bright lights and bright colours, but nothing is real in this giddy dance in which you spin.

This isn't what you should build on, because it will fracture, and even my imagination will hold more firm than this fracturing veneer. It's an artificial contrivance which both repels and fascinates.

I saw a child in Wendy's, and when they wanted to take a picture of him with the girl in the ghastly red yarn wig and pseudo-freckles, his mother pulled him onto her lap, and they all looked at the camera, and the little boy curved his face upwards, but not in a smile. It looked like he was going to cry. But then the picture was taken, and like a pro, the expression left his face the moment that it was over.

Little grimacing boy, you've already caught on to fake smiles.

My equilibrium is gone.

Physiological Pain

So much freaking physiology came out for MSK!! WHY??? ;_;

Anyhoo, went out with the gang plus Hsueh Ming and Yeen yesterday. Ellice pwned all last night. A sample:

(when Hsueh Ming refused to remove the layer of oil from his curry laksa) "See, that's why you're getting more...jovial."

"I wouldn't wear a G-string because it would make my butt sag."
Cue De Jun: turn around, give Ellice a Look.
Cue me: laugh until I was tearing uncontrollably and both cheeks and stomach were cramping.

I still haven't tried margaritas!

P.S. Omg I've turned into one half of a PDA couple ;_;

Rainbow

A rainbow is not something that will ever be ordinary to me. Yesterday, I saw a big one, stretching right across the sky. There was another, tracing its curve for a short way before vanishing through the clouds. The second one had its colours reversed... red was on the inner curve, purple on the outermost part. Queer, but lovely.

Anyway, blogging about it just to remind myself. It's been a long time since I've seen a double rainbow (the only other one I has ever seen was in Form 2, coming out of school in the evening after a large storm).

Storms and rainbows, hmmm?

Part of mankind's universal kitsch.
