I realised I haven been breathing orchard road for a longggggg time.
The above simply translates to,
I haven been indulging in purchases that’ll delight me.
The only place I shop now, is
(very very very sad to mention)
:The popular book store!
I come home each time with tons of stationary,
loads of files,
and packs and packs of clear file inserts.
Due to my very peculiar preferences,
I allocate each subject, a particular file
– only the clear book kind meets my demand.
Some of the previous files I bought had gone to waste.
(Because the size of the file doesn’t accommodate
the stacks of papers I’ve inked out... )
After doing up my sums,
I realised that I’ve been spending enormous amounts, esp on files.
Even my pencil box and its contents add up to quite a sum.
Earlier on, I was switching between channels
when I chanced upon a channel news asia’s correspondent,
broadcasting the state of the economic slums and its impact,
all over asia.
It dawned on me that I ought to put a stop to all the
unnecessary expenditure from now on and start savingggg upppp...

那时候听爱如潮水
想象着万一我们不是一对
你和我谁会在深夜里孤独的买醉
这一晚我一个人睡
防备着那于事无补的伤悲
还有很多工作只能面对不能憔悴
我为我的坚强而骄傲
却为这段情感到惭愧
我只能够承认失去了你都无所谓
我听的歌爱的人说的话是不是美丽的误会
我不能为你不顾一切的崩溃
除非这样子能保证把你挽回
我牵的手伤的心流的泪是不是浪漫的误会
是爱得太伤还是伤得太累
难道你还不配让我的心碎
这一晚听爱如潮水
数算着为感情而吃过的亏
搞不懂麻木是不是我学到的智慧
那时候我们都很累
还以为分手之后总有机会
让我们说后悔为了失恋为所欲为
我为我的坚强而骄傲
却为这段情感到惭愧
我只能够承认失去了你都无所谓
我听的歌爱的人说的话是不是美丽的误会
我不能为你不顾一切的崩溃
除非这样子能保证把你挽回
我牵的手伤的心流的泪是不是浪漫的误会
是爱得太伤还是伤得太累
难道你还不配让我的心碎
在爱情的面前我宁愿卑微

Very hastily the transformation took place.
I am thoroughly appalled that
it almost seemed like second nature.
Whatever I was most indignant about,
is now, crumbled into dust.
I blanched at the thought,
that the initial vitality I once had,
is now replaced with emotions turned cold.
It is now officially, an abject failure.

I guess I had just transformed myself
into some sorta nocturnal being.
I find myself responding better to the
syllabus in the dead of the night.
when no one’s online.
when my dearest siblings are asleep.
when I’m pretty sure the phone won’t ring,
as much as it does in the day.
But yeah, I’m cool with being a nocturnal being,
so long as I warm up better to my books!

We're driving slow through the snow on 5th Avenue
And right now radio's all that we can hear
Now we ain't talk since we left, it's so over due
It's cold outside but between us it's worse in here
The world slows down
But my heart beats fast right now
I know this is the part
Where the end starts
I can't take it any longer
Thought that we were stronger
All we do is linger
Slipping through our fingers
I don't wanna try now
All that's left's goodbye to
Find a way that I can tell you
I hate this part right here
I hate this part right here
I just can't take your tears
I hate this part right here
Everyday, 7 takes of the same old scene
Seems we're bound by the laws of the same routine
Gotta talk to you now 'fore we go to sleep
But will we sleep once I tell you what's hurting me
The world slows down
But my heart beats fast right now
I know this is the part
Where the end starts
I can't take it any longer
Thought that we were stronger
All we do is linger
Slipping through our fingers
I don't wanna try now
All that's left's goodbye to
Find a way that I can tell you
I hate this part right here
I hate this part right here
I just can't take your tears
I hate this part right here
I know you'll ask me to hold on
And carry on like nothing's wrong
But there is no more time for lies
'Cause I see sunset in your eyes
I can't take it any longer
Thought that we were stronger
All we do is linger
Slipping through our fingers
I don't wanna try now
All that's left's goodbye to
Find a way that I can tell you
That I gotta do it,
I gotta do it,
I gotta do it
I hate this part
I gotta do it,
I gotta do it,
I gotta do it
I hate this part right here
I hate this part right here
I just can't take these tears
I hate this part right here
"I hate this part."
This song keeps ringing up in my head.

La Isla Bonita
I overheard this song on the FM earlier on and it sooooooo
makes me wanna put on my dancing shoes!
I haven got the faintest clue how I got so acquainted with this tune.
But yeah, I love it and it makes me wanna groove.
Sometimes Phuture plays this tune,
when it’s about to close for the night! (:

I’m thinking party once my prelims end!
(And then hit the books again to prepare for the real deal in May.)

The boy and I headed over to Pontini at
Grand Copthorne Waterfront on 4 Feb,
to pre-celebrate my day.
Italian for the night! (:
I had the linguini spiny lobster in white wine sauce
while the boy had wagyu beef.
From a mile away,
I could smell the aroma of the wagyu beef.
Both thumbs up for the beef dish!
For those who consume beef,
this dish is a must-try.

Currently, I am spotting 3 HUGEE ulcers
that seem to expand as the day passes.
It all started out as an accident.
(I accidently bit myself hard, whilst eating and er... talking.)
Despite several attempts, in medicating the ulcers,
the pain still persists.
___________
Initially, I left the ulcers alone.
(despite the pain)
The pain gets intolerable whenever I start to chew, or even drink.
I even had to pull my lips outwards whenever I brushed up.
(to keep the toothbrush away from the ulcers.
You can imagine how huge the ulcers are.)
On Friday, when I went over to granny’s for dinner,
she noticed I was sorta slurring whenever I spoke.
And she did IT! : My granny rubbed salt right into my wound!
Thereby, instantly my tear ducts started to loosen.
Subsequently, I also had Chinese powder applied to the ulcers.
However after the effect wears off, it was still be painful.
I hated the idea that I couldn’t eat, drink, brush up properly.
The idea I abhorred the most, was that
: I couldn’t SPEAK NORMALLY!
Because I was sooo disturbed by the can’t-speak-without-pain idea,
I plucked up all the courage I could,
to rub salt into the ulcers before I turned in last night.
Now, though the ulcers are still there,
I guess they are all healing already.
The pain is no longer significant whenever I drink or chew!
And yeyyss! I have regained my ability to speak properlyyy. (:

I befriended a little Caucasian girl
and the young chef stationed at the hot chocolate section that evening.
The young chef brought me around the buffet line,
introducing me to the various appetising choco selections.
During the walk, we were chit chatting and I happened to
reveal my aging secret.
This slice of cake was brought to me,
by the sweet young chef.
I was pleasantly surprised by her sweet gesture.
Before leaving, we filled up the feedback form,
commending her effects in going the extra mile. (:
Pleasant evening, I had.

Again, I am reminded that time FLASHES by.
I recall how euphoric I felt, exactly a week ago.
I was bubbling up and down, making plans,
buzzing dining establishments, checking out menus... ...
It all seems like yesterday!
But alas, 7 days had already whizzed past.
I peek at the calendar, (intentionally set at my eye-level, on e table)
and started counting down to my prelims.
: Effectively SEVENTEEN more days left ONLY.
I guess now, the ONE and ONLY plan that I can have is:
To mug and mug and continue mugging...
___________
On a side-note, you can’t imagine how irate I was,
with the inefficiency of the organisation I am currently studying in.
I wonder how many more attempts,
will they not fail at screwing up things again.
The moment I got home today,
I actually had to buzzed them personally, (again)
to get things right.
Along with the number of
please-leave-me-a-voicemail-message-and-I-will-get-back-to-you,
(which the call-back never comes) my temper started to prickle.
It took me some effort,
to speak calmly and politely to the personnel.
Surprisingly, the service-recovery is excellent this time round.
She actually assured me that,
she’ll call me personally instead of sending e sms-es
(in which, I never did receive).
___________
L’Espresso.
I totally agree with the superb reviews that this place have.
Though not too much of a variety,
quality is definitely assured in every single mouthful.
Looking forward to visit the place again!
I am drooling at the thought of the caviar+salmon piece!
I so absolutely lurveeee it!
