plan B & C / Wednesday, February 24, 2010
you know, sometimes i wish that i could just be a roaming musician. but i'm not the most talented musician.. but that shouldn't stop me, huh?
seriously man. maybe i'm not cut out for all this science stuff. i mean look at my chem grades. maybe i'm not the most cut out for college. that would be the easy way out actually. to just drop out and become a musician! well, sorta easy? i would just play on the streets and... try make a living.
actually, my plan B, if i don't get into med school, is to become a cook. set up my own business and mooch off my bro for the time being. then i'll be a big chef, and stop mooching!
my plan C is to join a band. a jazz band if they'll accept an amateur. (:
btw, it's snowing right now. and i've lost a lot of motivation to write my french compo.
cheerio!

slack post / Sunday, February 21, 2010
the only reason why i'm blogging is to avoid studying for my psych exam, which is on monday! whoo!
wanna know how i did on my chem exam? bombed it. -67.5
quite excellent. i just don't understand. chem. is. evil. i'm sorry. i really tried to like you. but you gave me splitting headache and now you just.. ugh. i can't even succeed in you. really? chem just needs to jump off a cliff please? or stop being such a bitch. (i also understand i might be the one having issues.. just maybe)
on the other side of the world... calc. i'm doing absolutely, wonderful! brilliant! fantastic! got a nice cozy 94 anddddddddddddd... plus one bonus point! because i solved a problem in class this one time.. on thursday. :D
thursday was a really nice day. well it was decent. i went to work. rushed back for lunch and rushed off to sit-in in my neuroscience lab, where i dissected a sheep 's brain! and i'd like to say that the texture of a preserved sheep's brain is like a mushroom? no. a little tougher than a mushroom, but something like that. i cut up the brain to learn the anatomy and it felt like cutting mushrooms. so that's why :P
friday was an extremelyyyyyyy lazy day. i got up at 8, even though i planned to wake up at 6...30. and took a very very very very very very very very very very very very very long one hour shower. mmhmm. it was so warm! i couldn't help it!
so then i came out and i was like.... man. it's snowing out there. just a little bit. but man. i wish french was cancelled today. so... i wrote madame an email. but i will be seeing her monday morning before class! so it's not like i don't care. i was just lazzzzzy..
and then i was like. sweet! now i have an hour to just chill before going to psych. and i can some breakfast too!
and then i got distracted surfing the internet. i'll go down to the grundle @ 10 and come back up and leave for class at 10.25. 10 o'clock came round and.. after this song ends. i'll eat. i was also obsessing with this song from hi my sweetheart:
and so it was like 10.15 when i went to eat and i saw dan, my lab partner dan! and i discussed with him my dilemma to go to psych and i concluded that i could just skip it and continue to be lazy. and he rushed off to his bio lecture.
11 came round and i decided i had to go to this chem lecture and end my lazy day. so i did.
oh! something really... ______. happened on friday. so i came back from chem and masha wanted to go downtown for a sorta complicated reason and treat me to lunch at the same time. so we went. and then she had to go to rite-aid and she was sampling nail polish. because she was looking for this specific coral-ish colour. but they all weren't in the right shade of coral. and out of nowhere, come this black dood! the size of a bouncer. and started creeping on us. first hiding behind some umbrellas and before you know it he's standing next to us, looking at nail polish too! ok... maybe he has a loverrr he's getting it for? and then he flashed us his intimidating rite-aid employee badge! acted like ice-t in law and order.
and told us how we defaced nail polish and we had to buy the ones we samples.. of which i sampled this atrocious green colour, because i was just curious how gross it would look. curiousity did kill the cat.
so now i'm on a mission. a very important mission. to ban rite-aid. because they have creepy, asshole employees who don't want to just straight out tell us it's illegal to do sampling of nail polish and wait until we tried everything! -.-
and they didn't have a sign to say that it's not allowed! wth. seriously. so badass of us..
but something to counter the bad... i found this pretty purple dress at urban outfitters for $10! (minus a penny) and i felt so... awesome! because their dresses are like $60 and up. crazy boutique!
came back from downtown. masha left for uncle's and will reminded me of tea hour. went to tea hour. chatted with xiao feng in broken chinese and chilled at the chinese house till 7. then we got dinner with salmon!!! :D
and then i came back here and obsessed with some more rainie related stuff. :P
today/yesterday according to this blog, i went to this chinese new year thingymabob, dood dad, what not. and it was alright. it was fun la. but not very chinese new yeary for me. but it was still fun. i just chilled and did karoke with erik. will tried to teach me mahjong and i learned the basics? yea. oh! and i met this other dood from singapore! so exciting! i just hope i didn't creep him out with my super eagerness...
dood. you have no idea how freaking excited i was.
then i came back and our power blew out and then we got that fixed and then we watched post grad. which has a lot of funny lines. love alexis bledel! and i love the family in the movie! they were so funny and special. (:
ok. i need to do psych. for real. right now. because... it's 2 in the morning and.... yeah.
cheerio!

who am i? / Sunday, February 07, 2010
there are so many things i want say
and show these things in so many ways
but still the question in my mind is how?
everytime i meet up with chem, i feel like i'm in a dead end. it just frustrates me how it just beats me down every time. plays silly mind games with me and melts my brain into goo. eww.
just a few photos corinna took while i was vacationing at UVa avec mon frere. (:
i miss vacationing. i looked so happy! well, i am happy now too. i just need to face this dreadful chem exam. oh and then there's this calc exam, and maybe i'm just being paranoid and you may call me overacheiving, but if i don't get at least 95% on this calc exam, i will DIE. because calc is the only thing i can rely on to pull my gpa up.
tonight/wee hours in the morning, i will be studying HARDcore (like parkour) for this chem exam. i NEED at least a 90. i really need to do well this semester. i will sacrifice it all to get my 4.0, even SLEEP.
btw, i just got back from billings. watched Precious, with masha, mukda, theresa, sorta natalie, sorta gabbi and sorta claire. well these sorta people sat in a completely different row than us. so... yeah. only sorta. it was a very intriguing movie. the imagery was great. like when the (each one teach one) teacher was asking precious to read and she just zoned out, it was like how i pretty much zone out when ruggles, or the people at the neuroscience forum, explain me... stuff. yepp. i hear the noise they make, but i can only make out little of what the say. the simple words, like the and and. but everything else... reaction mechanics? what's that??
i legit don't even really know what i'm doing when i take those chem exams. every time i go to ruggles to make sure my exam was correctly graded and explain what i did wrong, i pretty much tell him i didn't really know what i was doing, i just wrote some stuff??
mmhmm. yepp. ok. back to hitting the books. till another day! (if i survive this week)
