Forty-two.

Did you know that Coldplay named one of their songs after the answer to everything? :)

42.

:)

Those who've read Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy would know what I mean. x)

I've read Philippa Gregory's The Constant Princess. It's an amazing book. Go read, go read.

It has been an awesomely eventful week, but I shant' say anything more, or I'll never get down to doing my growing pile of work. All I can say is this: Semester papers are two weeks away, and I am doooooooomed.

Oh, and congratulations to the SMKDJ CHOIR for seizing the number one spot at district level! DISTRICT CHAMPS! Up next: STATE CHAMPS! Go pwn Selangor, kids. :D:D:D You can't imagine how immensely proud I feel right now. But of course, that proud feeling comes with a bittersweet taste to the mouth...I miss you guys sooo much! :(

Okay, work work work.

undesirable consequences

eventful week. DI for math was, well, dreadful. i simply hate the race against time. math quiz was less stressful, though, but i think i still flunked it. chem test. bah. dreadful, too, but hopefully i'll be more or less be above average. hopefully. invigilator had an awful booming voice. when he suddenly hollered for everyone to stop writing, breaking the heavy silence, the students collectively jerked in shock. must file complaint.

we did the staring game thing today in class. hadn't been playing it since high school. renu couldn't last more than 5 secs. :) rui sheng still owned, though.

oooh and we were cheated of our money (at least, we think-lah) by this Indian woman who begged as she supposingly had a sister undergoing bypass surgery and she needed money for food and travel. no one else at the table gave anything. rui gave, like, RM9 and i reluctantly parted with my fiver. once she left, we came under fire almost immediately. LOL. Oh, and thank you for the meal, rui!

bought two packs of condoms for our coming-of-age friend. half of our group ditched us when we went to buy them. LOL. durex, the leading brand, was awfully costly so we settled for the lesser one. the cashier dude looked at the packets, snickered somewhat and remarked slyly, "shooot. hehehe." LOL. we wrote "excessive use may lead to undesirable consequences" on the side of the wrapper. :) anyway, good luck with them rubbers, chua! x) i trust you know how to operate them. if you don't, there's always the instruction sheet inside for first-timers. hahahaha.

loo enn and yee ping came over last night. apparently i'm to be elected honcho. whoaa. hopefully i will fulfil my duties well. i really want to contribute to make a difference!

SWS meeting tonight. some motherly topic about the EQ of children. bah. will still be attending, though.

will be teaching tomorrow. :))) i like teaching, i think. it's very rewarding to be able to share. which also means, SORRY JACQ IF YOU'RE READING COS' I CAN'T DROP BY CHOIR PRACTICE TOMORROW MORNING.

okay. end of mundane entry. sleep sleep. zzz.

I have made it my lifelong dream to be able to watch Coldplay live in concert.
Quite pathetic lah, but I'm gonna.
The best thing about Coldplay? They don't sing love songs, which I'm really tired of.

"I can't dance but I'm enthusiastic, that's the best thing."
Hahahahahaaaa!
Wah dem no life lor.
Chemistry. Sighh.

Hie. Not feeling good about myself. Week of tests. Will update next time.

A friend of mine remarked the other day, "death is better than dying."
Curious, I prompted her to say more. "It's better to leave this world that is so full of evil."
It took me all my willpower not to yell, "that's not true!" because it might be parallel to her religious belief (she said it with so much of conviction). However, I thought it was quite a sad statement as it leaves you with no room for hope or happiness. I mean, no denying there's evil in this world, but must we use death as a path to escape it? Why not fight it while you still have breath left in you? Why the futility of it all?
I don't understand. Maybe many people are unaware of the power they have within them to stop the evil of the world from spreading. Wai Leong said that day, "Those who stand aside and wait for evil to fester is more slanderous than the evil itself." I thought those words resonated a lot of truth.
Anyway, I finally got it out of my system. :) Thankkkyeuuuu. :)

GFG Camp prep meet tonight, then MAC tomorrow, then a whole weekend of deadlines to catch up on.

Whee.

Oh, I've got a new phone.

And oh, happy pre-birthday Rui Sheng!
