Waited quite sometime for bus 183 @ Science Park II, it being an almost-half-hourly bus service which loops at Science Park II. Clouds gathering up high in the sky.

3pm. Bus came. Waited a while while the bus driver went down to check the bus. Moved off, and it started to rain at the next junction. Rain gets heavier.

Reached Clementi MRT station. HEAVY rain.

Next stop: Nan Hua Primary School. Alighted. huh? huh? where’s the rain? The ground was dry!

3.20pm. Bus 173 came. Decided to check out the bus route to Bt Batok. Drizzled.

Bus turned. Reached PIE.  Bus turned in to Toh Tuck! OMG! Isn’t that the route to Bt Timah??

5 mins. Turning around Toh Tuck.

10 mins. Still at Toh Tuck. OMG what’s the bus doing so long at Toh Tuck? I want to go Bt Batok!

20 mins. Bt Timah market. oO Almost alighted and changed bus home.

Thought the bus will turn at Hillview. It turned at Hume Park! New road explored!

Then it went to the turn-a-bout at Hillview. Looped.

Turned in to the semi-detached houses opposite Lam Soon Building. Another 5 mins gone.

Turned to the same main road and continued.

Thought it’ll turn at the condo at the junction and go straight to interchange. wrong. lol.

Turned at next junction (Blk 265) instead. Great. Saw Aunt Elsie and grandma board the bus! And they didn’t see me until I gave Aunt Elsie a call. ><

It didn’t turn at Keming Pri as expected. Gosh another new area explored.

The route after that was expected.

By the time I reached interchange, it was 4.10pm.

50mins from the PIE to interchange!!

It could have taken me just 15mins if I’d taken bus 106 instead of 173.

Long journey indeed.

Despite the flu, I popped down the hospital after rushing my assignment. My dear budz got hospitalized after an insect bite, and had to undergo a minor surgery on that. It just sounds so scary when he narrates the situation in the surgery room ><

Anyhow, get well soon bro!

And I’m feeling damn sick lah! The sneeze that doesn’t want to come, made me tear so many times! How am I going to survive through tomorrow’s interview?

Did retail shopping during lunch. Popped down to BPP and bought for myself Shirlyn‘s album. She’s part of The UnXpected band that plays at Wala every Thur/Sat. Kind-of like the album, despite me not being an English song lover, not to mention Rock songs. =) I like the 4th song, SNOW. Haven’t had the time to look through the lyrics, but the music sounds soothing to my ears =) Go get the album if you like Shirlyn.

Attempted to transfer some old posts over. A reminder to myself: stopped at Feb05.

I have not YET started revising, despite the first paper on next Tues. The PL assignment is killing me. Keep getting stuck at the integration part!

Shall blog more when I’ve the time. Back to PL.

煮饭婆 – 好 song2 的一个名词

My dad commented over dinner that I can officially be a 煮饭婆 with my current standard of culinary skills. Is that all that he aspires his daughter to be???? NOOO I don’t want to become a 煮饭婆!! ><

still having slight rashes from the session at wala-wala. if u consider it as rashes, that is. the redness has subsided, but still itchy. no idea why I was ok the last time I had the same drink concocted at the same place. prob by different people? so the weightage of the individual component varies? i know i’m allergic to vodkha & martini, but other kinds of alcohol? think should go try out all the possible drinks. lol..

my precious camera has gone on an overseas trip w/o me. I believe it’s still on the plane now, to Turkey. parted with it reluctantly this morning when I passed it to D, but trusting him to take good care of it and coming back with lots of nice photos from his 3weeks’ trip. i am already missing my good companion. so D, pls take good care of it! =D

Quote of the day:
“The happiest people don’t necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.”

“最快樂的人未必擁有最好的每件事情，他們只是懂得珍惜一路來得到的任何東西。”

A trip to wala-wala has kept me awake till now oO

All thanks to the cup of coffee and the glass of Long Island Tea tt I drank. Still now feeling sleepy, but probably I should try to get some sleep?

Tried to study but nothing much went in. Too active a mind at this time of the day proves to be of no help. ahhahaha

An hour by the sea is a miracle.

Really glad to have 2 best budz around. Got jio-ed out for dinner @ IKEA. Really grateful to them for being there when I felt so down. Couldn’t decide where to go after dinner, I made a sudden request to go ECP after we were halfway to dunno where. LoL. And off we go!

It was a nice break from school work. The few hours of chitchat and laughter did cheer me up lots. Feeling so refreshed and energized now!

Thank you Jem & Jkai =)

I wonder if the series of having low self-esteem and low self-confidence is a sign of depression.

The whole day 2dae felt like it was a dream. Project meeting in the morning, FYP meeting in the afternoon. As I was heading back home on the bus, it suddenly ocurred to me that I had totally no recap of the nitty gritty details of what happened prior to that. I felt lost and tired. Was stoning throughout the whole journey, still awed with the amount of work left undone. It was then when I asked myself if these are signs of depression. I’m already on the verge of breaking down, especially after the episode.

Felt like I was in a dream, somehow in a way or other, I managed to find my way home.

Concussed the moment I reached home. Gosh it was a long time since I last felt so tired. I practically didn’t feel like waking up for dinner when my dad attempted to wake me up by shaking the bunk bed.

I need a break.

It is scary when you think of death in the middle of a lecture. The thought just flashed by and almost scared me. ><

Had been a tiring day, must have been due to the lack of sleep. I can see the dark eye rings getting obvious – a sign that I’m really catching up on age.

Life for the past week(s) had not been going very smoothly, with hiccups here and there. No motivation to blog about happy things. Perhaps I’ve been thinking too much, but the low self-esteem and self-confidence seems to be increasing at an alarming speed. Some may think I dun give a damn about certain things, truth is my approach towards it is different. I don’t like to argue, since I always lose the argument all the time. Which always ended up me being silent even though I’ve been accused of doing things that I didn’t do. My self-esteem and self-confidence had been greatly affected, and it feels worse to bottle everything inside.

And I feel lonely ‘coz there isn’t anyone whom I can talk this to. =(

Thanks to Friendster, I got to know how 2 of my lost-touch friends have been since we last met many years ago. One is already married with a 7 mth old baby gal. Not surprised, since we’re all of marriageable age now. It feels great to know how she’d been. Really missed her around in SG.

I have more to say but nowhere to start on. Prob is I’m too tired. Had not been having enough sleep these days
