happy birthday masha!

Maria Sharapova just celebrated her birthday on the 19th of April
and guess what?
she is only a tender 22!!
im dumbfoudned
young posh and loaded- successful
all thriough her own means

she must have had a jolly gd'ol birthday

and so it begins

this marks the start of my awful week
3 papers in a row, starting with Microbiology on monday, Current genetics on tuesday and biomechanics on wednesday
and AMERICAN IDOL on wenesday as well
the last one on the agenda is all that matters actually

i think im awfully unprepared for my papers.
not that i didnt study but because my papers are scheduled in a way where i cant do a thorough revision of all my subjects to my expectations
well tried my best, lets see how it goes.

looking forward to the end of the exams as it will mean my 3 and a half months long vacation is finally here
schedule for the holidays are already starting to be filled up with camps, sailing and windsurfing courses BIRTHDAY, moving house and maybe a short vacation overseas

but first i have to pull through this damn exam which means i have to go and study now
boo

this is a very nice sunglass!! Right??

p.s: i dunno if it only make sense to me, but if your stay is only temporary or short-live, shouldn't i have the privilage of choice?

guess who was rocking the night again? no prizes.

adam lambert of course!
great performace
now, i dont really care if he wins or not actually.
infact, I think Danny needs the win more than adam does cause he's gonna get the record deal anyway.
Danny still rocks by the way-just lesser.

Enjoy the screaming fits

this is why i fucking hate them

i seriouslly need to study right now.
but this urge to blog abt this breed of people is tormenting me badly.
so, what the heck.

whenever i see a hoard of people that are walking towards me and are talking at the top of their voices, i instinctively:

1. Stay still and try to reduce my surface area by tucking my hands in.
2. Walk faster and pass them as fast as possible
3. Take a detour and get out of their proximity

yes. the infamous ah tiongs of NTU.
i was just talking to yanner abt them two days ago when we were abt to go to bed after a long hard day of hardcore mugging.
We were just wondering what is it about them that makes us detest them so much.
is it us?
or is it them?
and we came to a conclusion.
its THEM!

for people that share the same ancestral lineage as us, i seriouslly dunno what went wrong in the making of the ah tiongs.
they are just so crude, dirty, loud and dress just oh so badly- this is just to name a few.
i refer you to yan yan's for their horrible dress sense.
anyway, you can argue that dress sense is subective and who am i to judge you based on how you dress.
how about the even the way the children act?
just a couple of days ago, when me and yanner headed out to JP for a nice well deserved dinner, some ah tiong kid was trying to pull out the mirror on the upper deck of a bus- the one where the driver uses to look at the upper deck from his seat?
and he is barely 5!!
on top of that, he and his even younger brother were screaming at the top of their voices in those ah tiong-ish chinese that is totally irksome.
im sure you know that familiar accent.

as a hall stayer, i have not once used the microwave in the pantry as there is this rumour that one ah tiong dried her undies in the freaking microwave!
urgh!!
anyway, you must wonder why the sudden hate post about them right??
it was beacause i saw this video
daylight robbery not the fugurative daylight robbery when someone tries to rip you off its freaking robbery in daylight
again
and again
and again
and again

i'm so disgusted, i wanna like dig out my intestines and give them some cleaning right now
just watch la



they tried, failed and jump off their bike and resort to snatching
pull and tugged
did u see the poor ah tiong lady that was dragged a few metres?
although she is still ah tiong, but like seriouslly
what are the ah tiong police doing???

you steal ppl's stuff
produce counterfeit everything
poison baby's milk
put cardboard in my favourite food the pau
use ground hair as soy sauce colouring
stupid country
so glad my ancestors decided to leave that place for the better.
Merdeka!!!

Idol fever

just a min off the books
it's been 6 days of hard core studying and i feel totally drained already
glued to the chair in my room for more than 12 hours aint no joke at all

anyway. i wonder if you people have been following this season of Idol cause i certaintly have
every wednesday night i will be headed to the tv lounge with my idol buddies sarah and melati to cheer our fav idols on
personally, i feel this batch of idol hopefuls are all seriouslly talented hence explaining why im so addicted to the show

Three of my favourites are definitely:
1. Danny Gokey
2. Adam Lambert
3. Matt Giraud

Danny is this soulful sort of singer that puts alot of energy into his singing and never fails to make you wanna get your groove on and dance to his songs. Kinda like those afro american church service when they sing their hymns.

Adam is like the performer. He's from braodway and hence he adds the element of visual pleasure when you watch him perform. Sarah told me he actually sang Bohemian Raphsody by Queen for his audition. Can u even sing that song??? On top of sounding good, he looks good also. Two big ticks.

Matt sounds very jason mrazy, which is very appealing to me cause its very easy on the ears and i love how he can sound very good with just a simple keyboard or guitar. Laidback and easy.

So who's gonna win????
I dont wanna predict too early in the competition, but you can check out these few songs that are sung by them.
Idol is good for me cause it has exposed me to alot more songs other than the pop gendre which i hear too much of and somehow i think they are getting quite crappy.
and for those who have no idea the latest season of idol has began, please please, switch on your tv on wednesdays night 10pm from now on.
these talented guys are just not to be missed
Im seriouslly hooked onto all these songs now. Really nice.
Its a different take on the original version you might have heard too many times
Listen!!!

By Danny:
1. Get Ready( I wanna dance to this song)
2. Pretty young thing (this too)





By Adam:
1. Tracks of my tears( VERY NICE)
2. Mad world (Very hypnotising)





By Matt:
1. You found me (nicer, less rocked version compared to the fray)



P.s: dear peishit. they are ten times better than David "Hachew-letta" I'm BACK!!
oh shoot. back to the structure of bacteria (why the heck am i learning abt bacteria???)

i feel like federer sometimes

i know it reflects very badly on my character
but trust me.
i so dont think that i am too good for the competition if thats what you think
its probably the other way round

i will not miss any of my races again
not any national time trial
not any competition time trial
not any competition finals
i promise
this is such a learning experience
about myself
about how i have evolved as an athlete, a teacher to be.
i'm still learning.
that's all i can say.
and im very sorry to myself and all the people care so much about me.
