speak now, or forever hold your peace.
haven't blogged for a long time, so there's a lot to blog about but i haven't got the energy to do so because i'm very tired. between work and japanese lessons i'm so exhausted i don't even feel like going out on off days! but because i'm always busy working somehow or another things get planned for my off days and i have to go out anyhow. and in about a week's time i'll start my driving practicals, which means even busier days.
at least i'm not bored or wasting my life away at home i guess.
anyway, celebrated sam and wynne's birthdays at sentosa on monday. it was fun spending time with them all. and we did loads of funny stuff too, like burying francis in the sand and having sandcastle wars. i hope they enjoyed it as much as i did. happy belated birthday sam, and happy early birthday wynne!

was supposed to go check out psp prices and packages today, but i woke up too late and had to rush down to cathay to meet wynne and sam and rab. and i was supposed to buy new shoes today, and shop around for a mother's day present too, but i didn't since i hadn't any time to do so after all. collected my new glasses and i'm quite happy with them i think. now i don't have to wear lenses all the time! they make my eyes uncomfortable, especially the left one which has always felt a little strange ever since i poured hydrogen peroxide in it.
and a few days ago i finally received my first (and not the last i hope) letter of acceptance. i've been accepted into ntu's communication studies and i'm frankly more relieved than happy. i kind of have mixed feelings about it, because on one hand i'm relieved that i'll have some place to go to after all and on the other i'm not very eager to go to ntu. i'm still holding out for nus's acceptance letter which i'm hoping will come soon. poor ntu. it's like the vj/tj divide all over again, except it isn't as bad for ntu since ntu is still well-known for being better than nus in some faculties. and like i was telling huiyi, every time i tell someone i got accepted but i'm only using it as back-up they give me this incredulous look like i just said something very stupid.
it's murphy at work again, i tell you, because while i really wanted to get into nus he let me get into ntu instead. i'm going to sound like an arrogant show-off saying this, but i really wasn't concentrating very much on the essay i was told to write for ntu. i spent ten times the effort and time on my usp application, but because i really wanted to get in for that i didn't. or at least i'm pretty definite that i didn't since they never got back to me.
and i am going crazy with all the ns talk. when the guys book out, it's all they ever talk about. when they book in again, it's all their girlfriends ever talk about. this is precisely why i should get a psp. i'll tune out and play while they're talking about ns. okay i probably sound like a cynical bitter old hag saying that, but even then, it gets rather awkward so i feel like i have to say it.
am i really cynical? i vehemently disagreed with sam when she first said i was, but today wynne pointed out that i was being cynical too and i could feel that i was. i don't know. i fantasize too much for my own good, believe in love at first sight and all things found in movies and happy endings but i also know life has an ugly side to it. cynical is when you think nothing good will ever come out of anything isn't it? i don't exactly think up bad endings for every thing, so i suppose i'm not completely cynical. it's just that some things have way more possible bad endings than happy endings.
i think i take after my dad too much in that i have to control so many things that don't even involve me, and i always get more than mildly annoyed whenever my dad does that control-freak thing. so i'm sorry for my tirade and my constant interfering into things that don't concern me. i don't like it when my dad does it and i don't think anyone likes it when i do that. it's a wonder how anyone bears with me when i'm like that.
... i ended up talking about almost everything i wanted to blog about anyay.
work again tomorrow, with estrina! haha i doubt they look forward to working with me as much as i do though. pfft.
a million things i want to do, and a million things i want to say, but i can't/won't do and say them and will instead forever hold my peace.
i will leave you people with this fairly amusing video.
