well, its the last 3 weeks to the big Os! there's no other term to describe it, its really a rush. a mindless rush, sort of like a feeding frenzy. peoples blood and brains puking out everywhere. tsktsk. considering the number of times i have said i have vomited blood, its a wonder im not a corpse yet.
but its still manageable, majorly because i have such great classmates. seriously. im going to miss them baa-dly.
and squadmates!!!they'd better watch out, im going to stalk them all and give them an extra-tight hug next saturday. hopefully i wont like leave them in the hospital or something. that wouldnt be too good, what with Os then being 2 weeks away. hey, 8 of you! just to let you know, someone is thinking of yall now!!
its sort of funny, but when i think of squaddies i think of them collectively. oxford should design a new collective term for such people!
im starting to hate saturdays. my whole day is screwed topsy-turvy. hunger, tiredness, headaches, empty feeling. ok, i shant complain, bc so many others out there in the world are worse off than i am now.
radiation is a hateful, hateful thing. its real, yet unreal at the same time. like, if u ask anyone what they think their future would be like, everyone envisions a sterling career, a family of one's own, etc. who in heck would say "i am aware that cancer may very possibly strike me,"? but yet, stats tell the reality.
i wish i didnt stay on to listen to mr yau's radiation talk, it just made me depressed and paranoid. grace said she'd go around wearing a lead suit. hahax ^^ are you sure you can even move with that on?
for a plus point this week, mdm audra said she like my ideas for the argumentative and descriptive essays!! hahax the potato chip one is my pride and joy. im really glad she said all that, because its made me more confident for my el paper one again. lately, they've all dropped, as in mark-wise. :(
not-so-secret dream: to write such a fantastic descriptive compo for Os that teachers all over singapore will try to kope it from cedar, and use as an example for future batches of O candidates. ^^ though its still a pipe dream until i can master the art of freezing time. or lightning-fast handwriting speed.
anyway, im happy that people like my ideas. even when people sometimes try to emulate (better word for copy) my ideas, i guess i dont mind it too much, because its a real testimonial of how people view your creativity. ^^

-forrest gump, played by tom hanks in Forrest Gump.
did i ever mention how i think tom hanks is one of the pro-est actors ever? he made me cry when i was watching The Terminal, because the way he was gulping down those burgers like a starving refugee was really really very touching. TO MAKE SOMEONE CRY JUST BY EATING IS A VERY PRO THING INDEED. hahax :)
