You have the eyes of a hawk. You're very much aware
about your surroundings and the situations that
you're in. People can't touch your things
because you would immediately notice what's
been touched or what's missing. You can analyze
people's thoughts and actions quite well.
That's good for you. Don't lose that sharp
vision of yours.

WOOH. net is up after 3 days of moving in. the house is still dusty as hell and i'm just tired.
lessee now. hot. yeah. have me own room finally!! whee! can study in air conditioned comfort. and the computer no longer distracts, neither does the piano. its the thought of climbing up 27 stairs to get to the piano that kinda makes its appeal fizzle a bit. but still. nice place mm. close enough to school and 4 years too late :| waag. havent studied properly, am going to fail o levels. the continuous lament of all sec 4s. apart from the confident and the prepared.

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH.

oh. and my hamster's fat. as in really, really, really fat.

my maid is a genius when it comes to fixing phones. it actually works now. looks like fortunately or unfortunately i wont be getting a new phone (depending on who's point of view you are on).

Sunday, October 12, 2003

just to let you all know that i no longer have a workable phone. damn rainy sundays.

phone slips, bounces on and through drain grille. subsequent tearing up of drain covers ensues, after which panicked wiping commences. when battery is stupidly replaced after much wiping the thing suddenly connects and goes 'fzzt'.

my parents consider this a sign from god that i should eliminate all distractions. i just consider it a bloody annoyance.

for crying out loud, we lack coin phones in our school.

dad just shocked me off my chair with the pronouncement that debussy's most famous piece was the moonlight sonata (he meant claire de lune, but still.)

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

and did i mention elephants.

Sunday, October 05, 2003

well. cant really study because dad suddenly got this queen platinum album thing and bohemian rhapsody has been sneaking into my room and wrestling with mozart and chopin.

guess who won.
after what i did for my prelims, this will likely be the last time i'm posting for a while.

rach 2 was nice :) however dennis lee was drowned out for quite a bit :( dvorak was invigorating, so to speak. you can hear the brahms.

rachmaninoff has HUGE hands. the notes he can play are crazy. left hand C-Eflat-G-C-G and right hand (2nd finger)C-(thumb)E-G-C-E. try that and see where it gets you. *grin* see if you can take a photo.

jinin should learn to calm down >? see, it wasnt so bad was it? jinin now happy :) see its good for you.

nyupnyup. study time. goodnight.

am i alone because i choose to?

Wednesday, October 01, 2003

i love quantum physics :) fun fun.

and even still i'd like to see you justify your lie.

Saturday, September 27, 2003

ugh. me being smart, went running for about 4-ish km after sleeping at 4 that morning and waking up at 12 and getting out of bed at 1. fell asleep talking about taking up the saxaphone or something and listening to brubeck :) attempting to get jinin out from under the table is an exercise in...perseverence? futility? oh well. mr cow is solid. really really solid. an effective bludgeon, really.

lets see...concert was. um. well. the pianist was good, but the orchestra...could use some improvement. *sigh* the first piece sounded strained. the horn solo in the rach was...not accurate shall we say? put it this way. jinin was about to cry after the first movement. and we walked out in the intermission. but sherbakov rules.
pop down for gelato and stuff. whee.

mood of the moment - mmf.
music of the moment - moszkowsky - study in g minor

Thursday, September 25, 2003

well. the past few days have been quite interesting. like music exams and all. stupid bartok. at least it turned out ok after 3 days. ah well.

i like fran's house! its got cute hidey holes and a nice grand piano room with a deep deep carpet! oooh. fun :) she's got a musical fish. i was playing from the diary of a fly and it kept watching me intently. the other bigger fish floated up to see what the fuss was about and the smaller fish did a loop the loop around it. amusing, them fish.

ahh. saw nice jazz cds at gramaphone sale, wanted to buy the bossa nova set but its hell expensive. oh well. mebbe get dad to buy it >?

feel bloody tired. mmmmf. nice class dinner, full of pizza. johnny depp is cool :P urg.

Saturday, September 20, 2003

sunday was ok until afternoon when i came down with fever. was feeling better so went to ian's house. perhaps i shouldnt have eaten the durians, which may have accounted for a very very sick monday. was NOT happy. stupid viruses.

oh gods telescopes can be hazardous to your health.

went to the science centre yesterday to see if we could see mars, and we brought brother's telescope along. we happily set it up and before we know it, people are queueing up to look through. possibly because there's another astronomist near us and he's got a LOONG queue. it stretches all the way to the entrance of the omnimax theatre.

spent almost the whole time looking through telescopes, adjusting telescope and trying to manage queue. there will always be people who will try to cut queue, and when you tell them to line up, they look at you as if cutting in was the last thing on their minds. then they try again when you're trying to manage other people. but then again, there always are the people who will thank you for letting them see through the telescope, even though mars was a steadily decreasing white dot. i think the nicest people were the ones who were just missed when i stopped the line - they didnt make a huge fuss when i explained to them that i simply couldnt let them in, but they asked me to let the girl behind them in. a great difference to the lady about 5-8 people down who was making a huge fuss that "it wasnt fair" that we were stopping her and asked us to let her through because she "was so near the front anyway".

i am really not cut out for pr work.

its all in the mind, if it comes to that. people come expecting to see mars, even if its just a white dot, and they are willing to spend 2 hours in line just to have the ability to say to their friends that "i saw mars through a telescope!". and that's what they get. even if they come away complaining that its just a white dot. c'mon, listen to what we've been yelling at the queue for the past few minutes. :|

total exhaustion - swensens for starvation cure. time got back - 2 am. amazingly i was the first for choir. :| stoned, stoned, stoned.

mmmmmm.

Saturday, August 30, 2003

YES. my font is back online. *waves goodbye to chinese software that didnt work*

i cant study. at all. anyone else have this problem?
maybe i should get rid of my books.

todays poem was a good one. don marquis' the lesson of the moth. wanted to write something along those lines, but since it's already been written...ah well. apparently we got it all wrong. archy wasnt a person, he was (i quote) "a cockroach who had been a poet in a previous incarnation. To write he must leap headfirst onto the keys of a typewriter, and thus is unable to capitalize his letters."

i find that amusing. where the hell does he get a typewriter? oh wait. just found out. its don marquis'. duh.

the poems here are nice.

You have used up the years and they have used up you,
and still, and still, you have not written the poem

but at the same time i wish
there was something i wanted
as badly as he wanted to fry himself


i dunno. i ask you this question that's been worrying me for the past month at least. what do you live for?

revelations of the day:
i know what octarine looks like now. the greeny-purple colour you get when your visual purple has been bleached, notably due to a camera flash about half a meter away.

the pictures are...amusing. the cow looks strangled. :P

playstation might be of prarie dog descent. it looks like one, stands up on its hind legs like one...heck. all it needs is some dye and little black circles around its eyes.

facial expressions of people eating liquorice smints are very, very, VERY amusing. i think i poisoned half the class today.

Tuesday, August 12, 2003

hamsters dont last long in my house. playstation (yes that's its name now) was here only 2-3 days and it ran off. stupid hamster daschund. it looks like a hamster version of a sausage dog :| but we found it.

it likes to stay still. which suits me fine. it stays on my shirt, gets tangled in my hair and swears. really.
this is pretty kickass. seriously.

blah. i have found a good anti-sleep method. its called smint liquorice mints. they look like smints dropped in ink, or "lizard droppings" to quote a few people. it is a VERY good deterrent. i have only fallen asleep once in class, and that was because i wanted to. those who know me would know how amazing this is. and those who have tried it will also know why it is so effective. put it this way. all of them spat it out. or swallowed it really really fast. the taste can remain for 12 hours, which is not a nice experience.

arg. maybe i should just sleep early.

insomnia is a bad thing.

Saturday, August 09, 2003

erg. just saw some of mom's work pictures. suffice it to say that you shouldnt see them just after lunch.

in any case. thanks very much for the surprise b'day party :P and the cute gifts :P mom saw the hamster shirt and started laughing so hard she had to wipe her eyes. dad is referring to playstation (or whatever you want to call it) as "another bundle of trouble". but its cute! and its gentle, which gets parents approval as they have been bitten by other 3 little terrors more times than they care to remember (human or otherwise). thanks again :)

now have to go down to gelateria to get mom's birthday...ice cream. we're sticking candles in it :P

Thursday, August 07, 2003

brother nearly bashed the cd player in when it started skipping. actually, it started skipping after i went out of the room. he stood it for a minute (new record!). then i heard snarling and bashing from the other room.

"how do you listen to this kind of music??"

its chopin.

oof. workwork. gaah.

Monday, August 04, 2003

hmmmm. birthday's been and went, and i dont feel any wiser. probably more stupid. in any case, ice cream cake is good :) its time to get down to studying....bah. dont wanna. gee, what a newsflash.

mmf. cant remember what i was going to post. mebbe coz its late. heck.

coo beastie! yan...tan...teth'ra! pictsies!

Saturday, August 02, 2003

wooo. good day. cept for morning, screaming (or maybe not) at the laptops which wouldnt work. in any case. shitty scrabble game, then scrambled to guthrie house where we pottered around finding food. then down to suntec for the exhibition thing which might be useful, i dont know. then orchard. lanning! tried out ft today. rulez0r. warden cool! funfun :) then down to far east to look for black rubber bands. started from a shop, went ALL THE WAY ROUND THE DAMN PLACE before finding another shop that sold black rubber bands 2-3 shops down from the first shop. yay. i so smart.

ohhh. headache. and i cant sleep in tomorrow because of open house. yay.

Thursday, July 31, 2003

little introspective thoughts keep popping up in my mind. like presents. they're indicative of possiveness - we give things to people because we want them to remember us, to have something to remind them of us and to (semi-)permanently tie them to us. its kind of like a bond, only out of friendship (usually). but then again, there is already a bond in friendship. just that this gift gives it a physical aspect. and then there's objectivity, and how you cant be ever truly objective. merely by observing something, you affect it. like history. you write history, but you have inherent biasness and viewpoints already so no matter what you do, its always gonna be subjective. which is why we have provenance in history tests and stuff, but that's beside the point. even by writing down facts you cant be objective. language itself is subjective, what with connotations and all. like acedia is different from apathy, and mercurial different from pmsy, but you get what i mean. and viewpoints - you could have different viewpoints of the same scene, because what you see is what you -think- you see, not what is real. ever wondered what it would like to be, say, a fly? you'll never know even if you change into a fly, because you're understanding a fly's experiences based on your own human experiences. you can never know what it will be like to be a fly. or someone else.

And it's been whispered and said
by the mouths of the dead
that the piper will lead us to reason.
Close your eyes - he'll come soon
let your mind call the tune
and your feet tread the path down to treason.

well. been dead to the world these past few days. lessee now. thursday was atomic jaya. BLOODY funny. mahatir was...implicitly lampooned. they plan to go on to malaysia next. i must say they're daring. *grin*

friday was...concert. the violinist was really good. i mean, his encore piece was clear, no squeaking to set you on edge and no fuzzy double or triple stops. no wonder he's fixed fourth chair. kind of like the fourth first violinist. missed abigail's weber, but saw her mozart's concerto. her arms are...skinny. like sticks. i mean, the first thing i thought when i saw her was how was she gonna bang the big chords. and my teacher claims her ending was "insipid". you couldnt tell if the ending came. oh well.

saturday was...oh yes. today. apm. interesting. nice poems and stuff. ITS DUKE ELLINGTON'S it DON'T MEAN A THING! not it ain't mean a thing. jeez. anyways. nice nice. i think the food gave me a stomachache. mebbe it was the kaya thing.

the house is coming along nicely. good view...but i think mom's room is gonna be like a greenhouse. i mean, all that glass is nice for the view, but not good for the temperature. i like the skylight. ANYWAYS.

mm. slept for 12 hours. felt shitty. still feel shitty. on friday was on the hyperalertness you get when you go through sleepiness and out the other side. like there's this big ball of tiredness in your head but you're awake despite it all...

whee! snorkeling is good! but seawater gets in your mouth a lot (and tastes bad) and occasionally you cough and gag because you think you dont have enough air. but the corals are nice! saw 4-5 sea slugs (they all look the same), angel fish, clown fish (hello nemo!), parrot fish, fish-that-look-like-parrot-fish, x-ray fish, fish-that-look-like-x-ray-fish, sea urchin (spiky), sea anemone, and brains.

whee! and spent a long time swimming. sleeping in the shallow end of the pool is nice. but if you sleep on the deck chair, you get slowly roasted. mmmf.

oh, and i nearly forgot. to quote my dad, malaysia is the only place that rents cars on an empty to empty basis. you have to fill it up. and they get free petrol. malaysia definately boleh. :|

mmm. pleasantly tired.

thinking of you...

oooooh. i LOVE this hotel! langkawi rules! lots of flora and fauna and stuff :) points to note:

- albino fish are scary-ish
- little kittens that are really young and small make the family go daft over them
- dad likes to go down the winding road really fast ("ahh! no road! no road! i dont see any road!")
- the andaman is LOVELY. like, opulence to the max.
- the food is good. the roads, however, practically guarantee that you'll lose it :|
- crabs are cute. :| we found hermit crab shells. unfortunately they were occupied. one was returned to sea. the other accompanied us to dinner. then brother guilty of not letting it go put it back. what were you thinking...:P
- its hot. HOT hot. but its cool up on the mountian. and i'm really unfit. woo. wobbly legs after climbing steps.
- they have nice computers here.

uh. cant remember what else. will post more. probably when i come back.

strange dreams.....

playing pool:
was happily whacking the solid balls into the holes and wondering why the hell preet kept getting to move the white ball to shoot.

me: why do you get to move the white ball around everytime i sink a shot?
preet: thanks
me: uh. what am i? solids or stripes?
preet: STRIPES!!
me: oops.

DOH!!
wooo! yay jazz!
loved the renditions of the pieces...like the one note samba, manha de carnaval...oh! and sesame street! that was good :) toots thielemans rules! and jeremy monteirio! and adam nussbaum (who does cool things with the drums like whacking the underside of the cymbals and hand squeaking rhythm solos) and jay anderson (cool double bass!) wheee!!!

*wham!* how to get to sesame streeeet......

# Find a sword, and people will follow you. People wielding morning stars, for instance, have rarely led anyone to glory.

# The strongest person in any group will usually have the intellectual capacity of soup. Note that this rule also applies to real life.

# While it is true that death is merely a minor setback for the average video game character, there is one driving force capable of inflicting it far beyond the realm of redemption. This force is known only as "The Plot".

# If you don’t fix the problem, then nobody ever will. For example: Timmy has fallen down the well. If you don’t rescue him, then nobody ever will, even over the course of, say, five or six months. Timmy will still be down the well patiently awaiting your rescue. This odd phenomenon is the work of the Plot.

# Animals hate you, and will try to kill you once you leave town.

# Plants hate you too, and most of them can try and kill you, as well.

# Everything carries money, including the hordes of homicidal flora and fauna that roam the countryside.

# After hitting an enemy, it is only polite to stand still so they can hit you back.

# On that note, expect to steal or loot things from enemies that they really have no business carrying in the first place. A common example would be a serum of antivenom found on the dead body of a poisonous snake, or a powerful sword found on the body of a creature with neither the mental capacity nor the opposable thumbs to use it.

hmm. my parents are watching mib and identifying chairs. i know that they're trying to furnish the house, but when you start furniture-spotting, something's definately overboard...

Strange quote of the day as found on the web:
When I die, I want to go peacefully in my sleep like my grandfather,
Not screaming in terror like his passengers...

Dream, the third of The Endless, you are in charge
of the Dreaming, all imagination and
creativity, everyone knows your beautiful
realm, but none truly understand it. You are
dark and brooding, creative, and spend a lot of
time by yourself, just thinking. You are almost
as serious as Destiny, but not quite. Everyone
is enchanted by you, but you keep them all at a
distance, even when you shouldn't.

Death, the second of The Endless, you are
responsible for ending all lives and taking
them to your realm, from which no one ever
returns. You are bright, positive, happy,
optimistic and enjoy everything about life, but
that does not mean your silly or stupid. You
can lay the smack down when you have to!
Everyone loves you, and they don't know why.

the trees rise up tall tall TALL
waving to the sunlight
whispering insinuations and invitations
mock-dancing around
for my benefit
flaunting the wealth of the world
in green[back]s and golds

come out and play...

i'll stay by my pixels and bytes
child of the computer age, while you
beat yourself futilely
against my invisible prison of
binary digits, infrared, radio waves and carpal tunnel syndromes and
dash yourself to death
from green to red
to black

go ask the sky to play with you instead

well. you cant say we didnt try :|

considering that we were a 2 week training team, we did pretty well for both teams. now just if i can hang on to that thought. :|

still. congrats team 1 :) you guys did a great job. seriously.

mm. now if i can just concentrate on the o levels...

oh yes. and we might get suspended. however, considering mr adrian chan's puckish sense of humour, i seriously doubt it.

woo. suspension for climbing out of windows and being caught by teachers who were, tough luck, just there at the time. render me scared.

my muse ran away, and no amount of enticing will bring her back.
she's lost among the broken glass
the crown of thorns among her brow
where the cautious lie in wait with glass jars
ready to catch the unwary fairy
ready to make her dance.
