firstly, thanks for everyone who helped me celebrate my 20th birthday. hahaha. and thanks for the present, though i can't say i like it. [ cos it's weird to like vouchers ] but it came at a good time. keke. can't think of what to use them for though, but i'm most likely getting a game with it or something. :D
lols. i've been trying my luck at UniqloSurprise for a while and apparently it's not too bad. managed to get a 5% discount voucher and 2 10% discount vouchers. BUT SAD TO SAY, i can't use them together. :( damn. the 5% one is gonna expire at 13 may, but i guess it's not much of a loss. the 2 10% ones will expire at 27 & 29 april, so i guess i might just drop down to the outlet at tampines 1 to have a look. hopefully no more queues by then. =/
anyway, enlisting on sept 11. what a nice date, and it's so damn long till the day. sian. so for ns, i'd need to get:
handphone w/o camera. ugly looking digital watch [waterproof, etc etc.] swimming goggles? army specs. er.. what else. might have something else but can't recall offhand.
hm.. i'd like to rant about something, but it's too early in the day and i haven't slept, so i shall leave it for the next entry.
the song's quite old already, but quite a nice remix. the vid's a little obscene, and the girl isn't even good looking. =x but the audio quality is the best one as compared to the other youtube vids. =/
On a sleepless night I sigh all alone How’s everyone? I feel kind of lonely
That’s not like me So stop laughing It’s just that I don’t know My true self
Into the broad earth, a single seed Extended its roots And bore fruit that was still unripe
The fruit wants to hurry up And turn orange-colored Basking in your light My ideals and dreams only expand Notice me, hey I tried to eat An orange today, too But it was still sour and I cried Because it’s unlike me to leave any behind I ate it all I loved it; I felt like crying I loved it; I loved it
Even if they’re similar, they’re different Mandarins and oranges Friends and lovers And our 2 hearts, too
I didn’t want to get hurt So I fled When I did that, not even light Would shine upon me
They’re miracles, right? Encounters and love Seeds and buds Even for the fruit that was still unripe
The color orange makes me recall The sunset glow that I saw On that day It seemed as if our 2 shadows Held hands together I wondered if the oranges Would turn sweet someday Or would they wither? I didn’t want to learn of my future So I ate it all It was sour… I loved it, but I felt like crying I loved it, so I felt like crying
The fruit wants to hurry up And turn orange-colored Basking in your light My ideals and dreams only expand Notice me, hey I tried to eat An orange today, too But again, it was sour and I cried Because it’s unlike me to leave any behind I ate it all; I loved it I felt like crying; I loved it I loved it I loved it; so sour I felt like crying; I loved it
what i wanted to blog about in the previous entry was actually about something i noticed.
maybe cos of facebook or what, that i suddenly revived contact with my sec school friends, cos i don't really initiate conversations on msn or phone or whatever unless there's something urgent that i need to find them for. not that i don't wanna talk to friends or what la, just that if i do, it'd probably go:
me: hi. xx: hey. me: [ nothing to say anymore. ]
lols. so yeah, that's about it.
so anyway, the point is i've suddenly been chatting with this guy and once in a while, with another girl as well in a mass convo. then i realise that they are people who will choose to bitch and lament about unhappy things and doesn't try to find alternatives to solve their problems.
one example: he's all agitated and complaining about his elder bro's gf not being automatic by sitting on the bed, blocking him access to his wardrobe to get his change of clothes when he just came out of the bathroom wrapped only in a towel.
he's complaining that he's only wrapped in a towel then the gf still sit in front of the wardrobe for what. want him to strip naked then she move ah.. then i went, small thing only la. why don't you just get your clothes first then go bathe, then at just dress up there and then. he goes, my family all guys apart from mum, we always do that. o.0 then i bwg. i mean seriously, if you don't wanna change to make things easier for yourself, i don't see the point of you being all pissed off and fucked up when someone else is being inconsiderate. and he complains about the girl leaving used pads on top of the toilet flushbox thingy, for 3 times, apparently. but, so..? just dispose of it la. might be something personal, and dirty or whatever, but it's really just blood, and not like it'd stink like some adult diaper filled with shit and pee. it's irritating, true, but just remind the girl will do lorh. what's the point typing in FULL CAPS going FUCKING BITCH, and all.. =/ seriously. -.- and this happened just now. he's complaining about the guys keep discussing about uni letters, cos a few of them received acceptance to the unis they applied and they considering which one to accept. and he couldn't make it to uni, so he came to whine to me, saying that he's reading what they are saying, feeling fucked and screwed over. o.0 apparently he asked them to stop and just play dota, and they didn't. -.- if you received letter to uni, you'll of course discuss about it with your friends la. game more important than studying arh?! wtf.
quite redundant for me to talk about in my blog, but then i see no point telling him that. who the hell will change just because i tell him/her to? so no point in me telling.
oh, and the girl.. she's a little similar, but she's the type that will insist that she's right no matter what, and even when people prove her wrong, she doesn't become apologetic or what, and will just divert the topic. and, she will lie, to get what she wants. =/ very mild incident, but it seriously turned me off. she was asking for people to go to sunshine plaza with her cos she wanted to print something, and she wanted company. so she asked me and this other guy. coincidentally, i was in a mass convo with that guy and few other guys as well, without her knowledge. then she was telling me that the guy she was asking too, said that he would go if i went. so i copied and pasted in the mass convo, scolding the guy for pushing the responsibility to me. then he went, wtf, i didn't say that! and proceeded to paste the same thing in the convo, except that it was me saying that i'd go if he went. =/ scheming hur.
but, okay la. they are still okay people to hang around with. just that i'm slightly surprised that i didn't notice all these when i was classmates with during upper sec. =/
btw, mockingbird's referring to the book i'm reading now. bought it like 8-9 months ago, perhaps, during popular bookfair in expo during attachment time. to kill a mockingbird. not bad, but a little dry la, the content. wanted to read it after i got it, but i got bored of the first few pages then i left it there to rot until now then i picked it up again. it's told from the view of a lawyer's daughter from the age of about 5 till 9 in the 1930s. the dad went to defend a black guy who's accused of raping a white girl when the dad's white. that period was still during the time where the blacks were biased against. and the black's obviously innocent. so yeah, meaningful read. not to kill a mockingbird is to mean not to kill/harm the innocent, cos a mockingbird does no harm nor damage to a human/'s properties, unlike some other birds who destroy crops, other than to sit there and sing.
bleh. btw, who wants to get levi's within this month, let me know. i can get 20% off this month and i don't wanna waste it, but i don't wanna get levi's anytime soon either, so yeah. this month's ending in 20 odd days. so while stocks last!
