somewhere in the northwest, 4 paths crossed, each starting at various points
in time and place. From this convergence emerged a common experience and
amidst this madness we gaspnot for air but for a
chance to divulge the happiness, sadness, excitement, and fear of life.

Hello... I am so tired =(... I think I need to go to bed early, and get more than 5 hours of sleep tonight.
S3 Bzzr garden today which went very very well! Three cheers (hip hip hurray x 3) for AM! Good job team. I can't believe I got marked today by a certain security person... grr... the fact that my birthday is TOMORROW did not sway him at all either. Haha, Serena and I, after searching in vain for charcoal, found a way around our little problem and I got hooked up with one last drink as a youngin, courtesy of Dan (yay for birthday presents!).
What else? Hmm... This election is causing me stress. Grr... I have receieved a formal warning from the EC... aahh... not good, not good, and it wasn't my fault at all. But, I guess we all have to be responsible for all our posters, and if they get moved... well... then you get screwed, like me. Oh, one of our lovely S3 banners and a couple posters for the elections were burned down with one of the bus loop benches. So sad, all that hard work, not to mention that there was a fire... I guess when I walk around listening to music, I become quite oblivious to the world. I was around that burned down bench three times before I managed to notice the mess.
Hmm... I seem to be jumping around a lot. No flow between my sentences. Ah well... I'll blame it on sleep deprivation. Anyway, I really need to sleep. I'm almost falling asleep sitting here as I type. It's so early, and it's a Friday... sad, sad. Oh well, tomorrow is going to be awesome!! Later.
Tomorrow will finally be Friday! I was initially dreading this week due to the three midterms I had scheduled...but by God's grace, I somehow survived and have been blessed with another chance I suppose. Strange how earlier this week, I was discussing with somebody if all people were equally blessed. Some individuals just manage to be put forward the impression that they are succesful in all (obvious exaggeration) facets of life. Intelligence, material wealth, physical beauty, captivating personality...by worldly standards, some people just seem to "have it all." It often appears as if such persons have been endowed with talents that far exceed those of most others. But I guess that's just all it is...success according to "worldly standards" ... I'd definitely like to believe that we are all extremely blessed, in our own unique ways. And I do not doubt that we are. There's so much in life to be thankful for .......
DOT: If I do recall, I *did* reply your last mail~haha, and noooooooo my inbox is not as flooded with "fan-mail" as you think it is! Well, just sent you another one to remind YOU this time to write back soon! Yes, I deserve mention on that photos page for having supplied you with such high quality photos hehe .. Ha, so maybe I should have a talk with Joel one of these days and inquire about who calls haha..no wonder your hp bill is damn high lah, so many admirers to sms wat!
MIN: Hahahhaa what's your excuse for not having slept well? Too busy dreaming abt what kind of clothes to buy ah? Hehz, my friends went shopping today..one girl bought three pairs of shoes!! and she was eyeing a 4th pair~hehz. Doesn't nearly make me feel quite as horrid :) Have a good weekend at FOP~*sigh* Wish I could go too! Yay, so how was your first actual job? (doubt that selling cars thing counts right..)
And yes Jeff is a hazard to not only the roads but anything remotely breakable as well!
CX: babeeeeee!! Yup, I've talked to Sara recently, believe her term is starting quite soon!! she's taken up dancing lessons, something she's been wanting to do for a while..so good for her :) and she'll be at Monash, her choice uni!! I still maintain your life is worth dying for! Haha, to be CX for a day, imagine how amazing that'd be!! ....
Anyway, something AM mentioned to me earlier that I can't get out of my mind! Funny how I asked a question to a friend yesterday of the very same topic....It can't be just another coincidence.
Ahhhhhh!! Why are we awake?!?! I've a lecture at 8am and its just past 4am which gives me 3 hrs sleep. Funny how I don't feel the least bit tired. Damn S3 meeting later, I needed to go for a swim. Blasted meeting. Just submitted my IHHS 300 assignment online, bet the TA thinks I'm nuts. But no matter, who doesn't anyway? *grin*
It's interesting to see who else stays up this late. Haha, until I realize that post people are actually in other time zones and it's not late where they are. Found out two long lost friends I've not talked to in ages are both studying in the same city!! How coincidental, must go visit and Perth one of these days!!
My computer science midterm is post-poned and my microbiology midterm, post-poned/cancelled .. depending on room bookings available for next week. This leaves me which a completely free evening/night (well nothing too pressing except those bloody IHHS assignments!) and some errands that I've yet to touch so probably won't be completed for a while yet! .. The amount to which I procastinate is unbelievable! .. Actually not quite so surprising considering how little I manage to accomplish daily. Which reminds me, I've yet to get those bloody posters printed for my non-existent campaign . Why, you ask? Because *somebody* refuses to be my campaign manager! (n) ... Haha, I'm toooooo lazy to put add that "friends" bit onto my poster. .. (ie I'm friends with _______, Vote for me!) But I *did* finally summon the courage to use my own photo haha (mostly because the EA wouldn't let me use somebody else's ><)
Okay, I've compiled a list of what I've to do within the next week or so...And I'm scared, so it's now been destroyed. OAN (haha!), I should probably get my butt off of here and start doing something mildly productive.
I went to see the Nurse in Residence lady with J. I thought she wouldn't have taken us seriously since our question was initially phrased something like "Why is it that we're always hungry?" She gave us some possible reasons and recommended us to see a nutritionist with the student health services. I hope I'm not plaged with some kind of eating disorder.......
Argh, what to do: Opera? or ISA Welcome Party? Anybody want to go to the opera with us (if I'm even going, that is!)? Smetana’s Crown Jewel of Czech Opera - The Bartered Bride .. Let me know by tomorrow evening (I've to decide by then too!)..Saturday March 8th, 8pm at the Chan Centre.
I loooooooveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee you too AM!! *hugs* Hope that blasted meeting does end soon! Too bad ***** ain't there, aw, no eye-candy tonight I suppose! :( Oh and you're very invited to join me for breakfast tomorrow morning at 9:30am :) I can't wait till food-time hahhahahha...Food makes me so happy! And there's free pizza tomorrow night! Ha..ha..Gotta make sure I go to the gym to compensate. Ugh. Must pre-read Physical Chem now. Happy happy, joy joy!
Blood, blood, blood, I'm tired of it! Dumb lab... pH in blood... grrr...
Anyway, the referendum madness is underway. Madness in a good way though, I'm very excited about the referendum and the elections!! I spent 3 hours painting posters (with Rena!), labelling lollipops, delivering posters and waterproofing posters today (posters, posters, posters)! They better look good or else, well, or else I'll feel sad and cry =(. Haha. Umm... yeah, I'm feeling guilty, I really should be doing my chem lab write up, studying physics or trying to make a dent in the 200 integrations I have to do. AHHHH, the next two weeks are going to be craazy craazy... Oh well, such is life.
YAY! AM got her Jello bean molds!!! Time to get out the old 'hip hip hurray' (x 3)!!! It'll be exciting when they arrive, and NOT broken AM, think positive =).
What else is happening? Well, my friend from McGill arrived during the weekend, but I have yet to see her... there is never any time, I'll see if I can drag her to school one day with me. Ha, she's on her reading break, but... always time for more learning... ummm... yeah. You know what would be so cool? If I only needed five hours of sleep a night. I know someone like that, she is rested with five hours, that's all she needs. Wouldn't that be amazing? Yes this is what I waste my time thinking about... But think about it, I could go to bed at 2:30 am and still wake up at 7:30 am with plenty of time to get to school and go to class. If I wish hard enough do you think it'll come true? On that crazy note, I should go off and do some work. Later.
Hahahhaa I'm quite convinced nobody reads this. Well all the better, less people who know about my insanity, the better.
I was quite sure there was going to be a TA strike. There were pickets up around Scarfe and such so I thought my walk to class would just be some morning exercise or something. Stayed up till about 3:30am talking to dearie DOT, amongst others, who's brother still thinks I look like a pig (grrr). Well whatever, haha thanks for the "impersonal comment". I shall devise a way to post on your blog, to disrupt the lovers' talk going on btw you and **** (4 stars) - kidding I'll help you get that penpal friend of mine hhahhahha!! And yes go make somebody scan your pictures quickly so I can use a photo of you for my campaign posters! hahhahahhaa..no way in hell am i gonna use MY photo!
Anyway, I got out of my lab early because I was complaining to my wacko TA about how I've to study and I'm so screwed for this week (which I am). And how his labs are a waste of my precious time. So here I am, blogging away. Maybe I'll eat then take a nap.
TWO more banners left! I'll be painting awayyyyyyyy!! Come help me and patpat - 2pm~ BE THERE!!
