It's nearing the end. My last long vacation is
ending. And i dun want it to.
Have been feeling somewhat down recently eva since the results for my business specialisation were released. (For those of u who still dunno, i got into
marketing.) I dunno if i've made the right choice, and i'm juz completely disillusioned about the future...
The fact that i onli knoe of 2 ppl who's going to marketing doesn't help. And worse, i'm going to be alone in all my classes. All
alone in this whole new strange environment that i'm not sure if i can fit into...
For starters, i'm not exactly a veri outgoing person. I'm not as extroverted as i seem to be. I dun realli mix ard wif strangers. I'm not outspoken either. I knoe u r gonna ask, so y the hell did i choose marketing in the 1st place?! The reason is simple: i realli
enjoyed my marketing module last year, and i'm realli interested in learning more about it. Quite naive huh?
Y din i choose
HR instead... Everything will be better that wae rite? Better career prospects as well... But the modules look tough though. Argh i can't regret my decision. Not at this pt of time.
How...? I'm so not looking forward to the start of a new academic year. I dun wanna be a Year 2 student! Hai.

I've nothing to blog about nowadaes. Life is juz so
boring.
There's nothing to do. Nowhere to go. Coz Singapore is like so small and boring. This is juz so
not the hols i was expecting it to be. And guez wat, the hols is ending soon.
Almost everyone i knoe have gone for overseas trips during this hols and enjoyed themselves... I realli envy these ppl. I wanna go abroad too! I wanna go for a short trip to relax myself, to shop and to have a great time... But due to my lack of cash and lack of company, i'm still stuck in this small and scorching hot island of Singapore.
I wanna go JB! Mummy and grandma do u hear me? Haha.
Argh i am bored.
B.O.R.E.D. Ppl out there who r feeling bored as well, do contact me so that we can plan sth to do! Haha.

I watched
Daddy Long Legs (on DVD, courtesy of
dear!) yest... And I must sae that it's realli the nicest Korean movie i've ever seen...
Starring Ha Ji Won and
Yeon Jeong Hoon (my current fav Korean actor! I wanted to watch this movie coz i knew he was the male lead), Daddy Long Legs is a
touching movie that borrowed its name from the famous novel by Jean Webster... Young Mi (Ha Ji Won) is a very cheerful and kind-hearted girl who was left to her own devices after the death of her parents when she was young. However, an anonymous benefactor has been helping her throughout the years by paying for her uni tuition fees and other expenses. Now in her mid twenties, Young Mi lands a job as a programme writer for a radio station wif the help of her benefactor. Not knowing who he is, Young Mi assumes it's her 'dream lover' like the story of the 'Daddy Long Legs' novel. She dreams of meeting her 'Daddy Long Legs' one dae to thank him for everything he has given her...
The sad
twist at the end of the story was totally unexpected, yet it was so moving that it made me tear several times... It is veri unlike the usual Korean weepies which go all out juz to earn ur precious tears. The acting put in by the male and female leads was
excellent, the story was realli moving and memorable, and the soundtrack was realli nice as well. On the whole, it was indeed one of the
bez movies that i've eva watched.
Anyone wants to
rent the DVD? I'll charge u $2... Haha... =P

I've been listening to Jolin's new album 'J-Game' recently, and i personally feel that it's her bez album since her 'Kan Wo 72 Bian'... The fast tracks r great, but slow songs continue to be her forte. Now, who said that she needs Jay Chou's help in order to sell albums?
Initially my fav song of the album was 'Tian1 Kong1', but soon, it was replaced by the song 'Fan3 Fu4 Ji4 Hao4'. It's the onli song in the album that makes me wanna tear every time i listen to it... I love the lyrics so much, and the bez thing is, they r written by Jolin herself. Take a look at it:
Those who haven't listened to Jolin's album, do take a listen to it... Trust me, u'll be amazed. And dun forget to listen out for this fav song of mine!

It's been
a year. I've completed the whole of my year 1 in university.
In fact, it dawned on me the dae that i got my semester 2 results. But i was too lazy to blog on it. Then, the realisation hit me again on wed, after my exam on
Tao (my general elective for this special semester session, which lasted from 10th may till 8th june) was over.
1 year has passed. I've actualli made it through my 1st year of undergraduate studies, and i must sae, i've made it through rather
successfully. Sch life has neva been better, neva been as smooth-sailing.
This 1 year in uni was, on the whole, a pleasant one. I feel that i've learnt a lot about life during this period, and i've somehow matured once again. It's juz like, i'm beginning to see the real world out there, and i'm slowly starting to fit in... It's juz a veri
unique feeling.
This 1st year of uni has been a completely new experience. Suddenly, u have lots of freedom, and u can actualli get to
learn, and not juz
study, unlike during JC times... It feels good that i can learn, understand, and absorb instead of memorising notes painfully. It feels good that my results now r pretty good, instead of always being among the last few in class (esp during JC times). It feels good to be able to study without as much stress as last time. It feels good to learn about modules that r more related to ur future career, instead of studying tough and useless subjects like
physics. And of coz, it feels good to be able to
skip lectures (and even tutorials) whenever u feel like it... =)
This 1 year of doing business modules oso led me to become more interested in the course i'm taking. Now, i'm more likely to imagine my future career to be business-related. I've gradually grown to accept and
love this course i'm taking, and i can sae that i'm
proud to be from my faculty. I confess, it still hurts at times when i think about my lost opportunities of entering into the field of communication studies/mass communications. But each time, i'll always tell myself not to look back, but to look forward to my promising future ahead... It makes me feel much better that way. =)
I initially planned to talk about the things i
dun like about uni as well, but i guez i shld save it for a future entry instead, coz this entry is getting too long. Till then, tataz ppl.

Me, mummy and grandma were talking todae about the trend of young ppl getting married early nowadaes (as in like at the age of 19? 20?)... It is such a
bizarre trend to me, and ppl like me can neva understand y ppl wld wanna settle down at such a young age.
Marriage. A word that somehow sounds extremely
intimidating to me.
In my
current opinion, marriage is kinda no pt. If u can be happily and carefreely dating, y wld u wanna tie urself and ur partner up and so-called 'settle down'? And stare at each other's face at home every dae, get bored of each other, and start an endless string of quarrels?
Some sae, ppl get married coz they wanna have kids and start a family. Which brings me to the next pt.
Having kids.
The idea of having kids is 100000000000000 times
scarier than the idea of marriage. Dun get me wrong, i do find babies and young toddlers veri cute and lovely, and i do
love children veri much (there was even this period of time that i so wanted to be a childcare teacher), but well having ur
own kids is juz different. U wun find them cute anymore when u r kept awake all nite by their cries, or when u hafta quit ur job to stay at home juz to look after them etc etc... U get my pt. Also, not forgetting the extreme
pain the mother has to go through during childbirth. Goodness me.
To me, the worst thing about having kids is, it is an
irreversible change. Kids r
permanent. U can't juz kick them away when u r busy, tired or juz plain irritated wif them. A female's life starts going downhill after having a kid... Imagine, everywhere u go, u'll hafta bring him/her along... U and ur husband's er4 ren2 shi4 jie4 (assuming u r actualli
enjoying it in the 1st place) wld be totally disrupted... U'll hafta spend so much time and effort (and money too, of coz) to raise him/her up, and there's no guarantee that he/she will be filial towards u in the future... The more i think of it, the scarier this becomes. *shudders*
Of coz, this is juz my thinking at this pt in time. I'm juz a 19-year-old, and i'm sure my mindset will change as i gradually mature and grow wiser etc... But one thing i'm veri certain - i will
not be thinking about settling down anytime soon. Nope, not even 5 years later. If i eva get married, i guez it'll be when i'm ard 28? Haha we'll see then.

I seriously feel that the doctor has committed a
misdiagnosis. Food poisoning?! I think it's more of some gastric problem or gastric flu lor...
Until todae, after finishing all my medicine and stuff, i still feel quite unwell on and off, and the discomfort that has been haunting me feels veri much like gastric pain. Eva since that dae itself (tues), i haven't been puking, nor have i been having diarrhoea, so i think it's unlikely that i'm suffering from food poisoning rite...
I'm currently surviving on a daily dose of antacid, and i hafta stay away from lots of food, esp oily food. I realli hope i can get well soon... It's indeed
torturing for a food-lover to stay away from all the delicious foods etc. Argh. Pray for me ppl...
