of cabbages and kings
planning:
batam trip - cableskiing and gokarting
bintan trip - slacking (hopefully) surfing
bangkok/krabi trip - backpacking and beaching (hopefully not a lot of) shopping
newzealand trip - working and going mad over lotr pilgrimage sites AGAIN (hooray)
i have the location shoot guidebook and this time round im going to all the ones i missed previously because my parents arent crazy over it like i am. going with ck who is probably even more obssessed than i am (at least when it comes to learning sindarin. im still stuck at the inflective verbs) so it should be all good.
africa trip - volunteer work at some nature reserve. p passed me the website so im supposed to take a good look at it, but nothings even started yet. bleah. i wanna see the world before i'm totally trapped in singapore till i'm 30 and my eggs shrivel in my ovaries. ho hum.
finished a bowl of reverso from island creamery. drinking honeyteamilk now and contemplating putting some tehtarik island creamery icecream into it. yum. fattening.
eating chocs from e. thanks e :] shall print notes for people more often in future.
ambushed d with someone.. d of course screamed and disturbed the hell of out of all the m2s studying in the library.. hahahaa.. apparently that someone is a's friend's best friend! so cute! anyway a and i both agreed it was a totally off match (d is a born-and-bred mg-ac girl who happens to be passably bilingual and he happens to be a tch-hc guy. eh heh) but they do make quite a cute couple. especially since d was making terrible moony eyes at him in the library and he was rubbing her back quite affectionately.. hahahaaaa... who the hell pdas in the library! especially mgs girls! tchk!
hoho. also just found out su- is attached!! to some hot trinidadian guy in the uk. goooo su-! finally found your baimawangzi! apparently she tells him every day how lucky he is to have her. so su-, and so true! treasure her mr trinidad! ohyes. msn convo.
me: if he breaks her heart i'll fly over there and punch his nose in.
j: i think you should try for something lower. it's pretty hard to reach that high
augh whatever. don't mess with short people. they've spent their whole lives making up for the height difference. kilo for kilo and cm for cm we can kick anyone's ass. well at least i can. so can su-. hnph.
seriously. about all these attachment things. the world is ending. what happened to the rockstar groupies wildthing.. thing?? the whole madrutting and rockandroll thing? ohwell now all i have to do is get attached and the apocalyptic angels can start hunting for those trumpets and seven seals. hahahhaha.
really bad cravings for xiaolongbao now. dimsum in general. and my mum is leaving for hk tmr. sighh.
Judas Iscariot is kicking up seashells and he is cursing
He's being tortured by the roaring in his mind
That won't surrender the scene
And even here alone in the dark, a thousand eyes are burning
Holes into his heart
Jesus, he was the schoolyard martyr
Was every mother's perfect son
Not like Judas
In the back of the schoolbus
Invisible to everyone
Well, there was lots of love in between Joseph and Mary
Joseph was the head coach at the high school
And they were living down on Judas' street
They'd be pitching Sundays in the grass
And usually Judas' father would be drunk off his ass
Last night Judas' father
Threw his son against the wall
And that's how you learn to become invisible

to be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best night and day to make you like everybody else means to fight the hardest battle any human being can fight and never stop fighting.
