lets pretend to be dice!
the immortal words of the infinitely-quotable dawn lim shitian. yes, scfour met up again at tong's house for a night of lao yusheng, mahjong, taitee, and the chocolate fountain which burped and farted even with liberal application of full cream milk-- extremely uncool and totally unlike the ones you see in hotels. the fervently-anticipated fightscene involving isaac and tabitha unfortunately did not materialise (leaving everyone else with a sense of relief and me severely disppointed at the loss of a chance to practise my first aid and watch soapopera for free.) but the party was worth going to anyway. eelin looks exactly the same (except for the livestrong band. melbourne medics), isaac actually looks buffed-er, and tiff's cut her hair. otherwise it was the usual suspects meeting up for a nice old time.
74 went on a visiting marathon. 7 houses, and literally tons of food shoved down not-too-unwilling gullets. greedy me. but it wasn't really that fulfilling with someone missing.. sigh.
boo to lousy old people who come at 1130 with johnny walker and expect angbaos. but i love you guys anyway. =) alcohol, the drink that cures all.
on academia: the Letter has arrived. dont really know whether to go or not (have no idea whether exams are then, and i dont wanna miss tutorial for nothing. better stop eating shit now though if im gong to be in good shape to go sweep floors on march 1. and also: i see all the hc people organising their saturday schedules, and privately thank god for lazy joogal. im still praying i can get out of biomed duty.

plangere, latin: to strike, or to lament.
in the depth of winter i finally learned that there was in me an invincible summer.

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.
