I've noticed that the songs i like tend to drive people in the same room as me up the wall. *ponders* i think its because i would always have that few songs on repeat for the *cough* whole day. erm.. day after day. I think this is the 7th time i hear "El Tango De Roxanne" from the Moulin Rouge OST. *sheepish grin* I'm sure Lianne remembers there was this time I played that thumbelina song EVERYtime i was over at her place ( which was practically.. uh.. everyday) and everytime she heard the starting of the song, she would sigh and mumble an "oh no... again?!" *laugh*

My right eye is all swollen up. *sigh* getting worse everyday. oh well.. doesnt really matter. No one's looking at me anyway. btw, i've been dressing really sloppily to class lately. too lazy to pick something nice to wear. Sides, the nice ones crumple the easiest. So i just wear an unironed T-shirt ( borrowed of course.. the bigger the better ).. and dump it in the wash when i'm done. my dress code has gone down the drain along with my predicted exam grades *sulk* i'm just too lazy to even dress up, ya know.

I wish there was someone who could explain the genetics stuff to me.. coz i've no idea whats going on and the next test in coming up next week i think. and the week after is the metabolism test.. which i havent started on. *cringe* and i missed like 3 lectures on lipid metabolism coz i can't wake up. And even when i did wake up in time to drag myself there ( Melvin gives me morning calls for most ).. i would fall asleep in the lecture hall. *wince* 8am classes are NOT my kinda thing. Enuff said... i think i shall go read one lecture's worth tonight. you know, i'm typing whatever i plan to study day-by-day so i can keep track. else I would only discover that i've missed out some chapters the DAY before the paper. or the hour before the paper. trust me. it's happened before.

Exams start on the 13th of <:edit:>march april.. ( why the hell did i type march? pardon the error) <:/edit:>. I realized i have papers on the 13th, 14th, 15th and 23rd. which means, i'll have a ton of time left for the last paper ( about a week).. and no time to study in between the first 3 papers. *frown* Then there is the little problem that by the time i finish the 3rd paper i'll be in such a holiday mood that i wont exactly be concentrating for that week. Have more or less planned out the study timetable. And i've fallen behind already believe it or not. *rolls eyes* anyway, i've decided to try a different study strategy this sem. shall leave the old topics to the last. At least make sure i know the new stuff first. maybe working backwards will help. maybe it won't. we'll know when the results come out. either way, i'm behind time. really seriously behind time.

I had a rather.. long talk with Melvin yesterday about him going overseas to study, or rather, the probability of it. He said something about me going with him. *wrinkles nose* i'm sure that will freak my parents out if nothing else will. But since they get freaked out in reaction to everything i do, i can just imagine the furniture flinging that will result if i told them. I mean, they are my parents.. and I feel obliged to let them know at least.. if i'll be going overseas for a few years. Anyhow, it's only a probability not an eventuality. and i may not go with him ( though he says something about it being standard. whatever that means ). Feels weird thinking about it somehow. Its like, a situation i've never thought about before. *ponders* Pffftt, it's way off anyway.. i mean, by that time i'd already have graduated. I told that silly guy not to think about it coz it's too soon to plan anything. So.. we'll see... about.. maybe a year and half from now? we'll see.

*hugs jen* you really need to chill and meet up with me to study in the library or something. We need each other *grin* and i miss studying with you. Can't imagine how i would pass without our usual 12noon to 11pm study-cum-bingeing sessions *grin* tell Adrienne you have exams in a month and you need some slack. i'm afraid i won't be free on thurs and fridays anymore for the next 2 weeks though. its the only day the whole bench can go to lab and do the lsm2202 project. so i'll be stuck in a white lab coat for those 2 days each week. you can borrow a lab coat and come in if u want though. it'll be fun! i mean, it's open lab and no one is taking attendence anyway... *giggle* and u can help me with my pcr *laugh* just kidding. it's a silly idea... you'll be bored outta ur shoes there.

btw, i've finished that chapter i was working on and doing the next! yay! *cough* of course.. there are like 10 chapters.. and thats only for one module. If i study one chapter a week i'm still screwed. trying!... trying!

Dubs today was GREAT *gush*

we took pics at the studio, which WASN'T great for me coz i looked weird in all of them. Some of the pics at Dubs turned out alrite though. Looked rather oily in most of them. And my eyes look weird coz they're all swollen. rather badly now. They weren't so bad in the morning.. but as the day progressed, they just got more swollen. Jen looked great and usual. and So did Lianne. Will put the link up once Lianne compiles all the photos.. coz there was 3 cameras... *laugh*

We were on the bus, and I suddenly went, "guess what i brought?" And i whipped out my camera.. Thenn Jen dug into her bag and waved her camera around.. then we looked at Lianne ( who fumbled with her bag )... but her camera was whipped out too. *laugh* for some reason we found that vastly amusing.

Sunday Roast was great. I had an iced tea, believe it or not. at a pub. *snort* highly unbelievable, but yesh, i had an iced tea. The hamburger was HUGE. u'll understand when u see the pics.. Jen took a picture with the food... *laugh* my idea actually. I wanted to take a picture of the food... then jen posed. So i just took it, ya knoe.

I had nice hair today. pity the pictures didnt turn out right. Bah. oh well. doesnt matter i guess.. it's not terribly impt. Not as impt as my half read notes on the table ( which i've been at since last week by the way.. the SAME chapter ).

I spent 60 bucks on my hair yesterday. *cough* for a person who is terribly broke... it's quite an amount to spend on hair. *ponders* well.. technically speaking, I did not spend 60 bucks on my hair. Technically speaking I spent about 35 and the rest was topped up by Melvin ( who else, right?) Well, it's all his fault. HE wanted to get a haircut and insisted that i get one too ( to keep him company, he says).. anyhow, i walked in and my eyes were riveted to the "treatment for 45 bucks" column of price listings. I swear all i wanted was a haircut *cringe* then Melvin was like, " if you want it I could subsidise." So i fell for temptation *sigh* It was quite an experience though. The hair cut turned out really nice. And the big steamer thing that was placed over my head for 15 minutes was.. well. hot. but my hair was shiny and nice and I had great hair for about .... oh... 2 hours maybe. before it started curling all over the place again. But at least the hair is still soft now. So i reckon the treatment still works. The curling is just due to the damn stubborness of my hair. I -like- the hairdresser. Her name's Fiona.. and the hairdressing place is really far off. like bedok central. Not too bad overall ( Jenny: cognitive dissonance? it IS 60 bucks and i've never spent this much on my hair..)

Will be headed down to Dub's later with Jen and Lianne. Was tempted to ask Vynnie along.. it IS his birthday today. Ooooo btw, Happy Birthday Vyn!Anyway, was tempted to ask him, but i dont think he'll be keen in hanging out today. methinks he would rather spend time with... a special someone else *laugh* i'm not saying anything coz i dont know for sure. that guy never tells me about his girlfriends.

I went marketing this morning. *waits for the shock to register with u guys* well, I went not because i'm gonna cook u knoe.. i went to get some stuff in HOPE that someone will cook for me *hint hint* you know who u are. A few problems this morning in the market though. First off, i wasn't really sure what i wanted. Second, it was SO crowded. SO hot. and SO wet. I DID discover things in the market were pretty cheap.. the only problem is converting the raw to something edible. *wrinkles nose* we'll see.. we'll see.
