忘词 - 五月天

词曲: 阿信

嗯嗯 搭啦 我又忘了
我应该应该应该应该唱什么
我应该应该应该应该怎么做

嗯嗯 搭啦 想起来了
我好像好像好像好像应该说
我好想好想好想好想对你说

在你的面前我就变得很笨拙
就像是一个不断忘词的歌手
我练习过彩排过 这个时候 却又说不出口

你你的温柔感动了我 我忍耐太久内伤太重
在这一秒我一定要说 就算失败 也不沉默

你你的温柔感动了我 我忍耐太久内伤太重
在豁出去的那一秒钟 却又忘词 我噢噢噢

上一句好像是有关你的形容
下一句好像希望你能答应我
我练习过彩排过 这个时候 却又说不出口

boots!

finally finally i've gotten my boots! been looking everywhere for the right pair and i THINk i've got them now. grey suede knee-high flat:

hot or not? quite :)

would have bought these:
if they weren't so expensive... but oh well. will leave that for the next round! hopefully i'll get good use out of my pair!

went out just now to celebrate kat's birthday! cake and milkshakes mmmmmmm!!! was really a lot of fun! the group today was hilarious... haha i suppose sometimes a change of ppl i'm around is good! the medics who were there i get along with great and kat's friends are seriously so nice it's as if i've known them since the start of last term. have now been invited to dress up as an animal for the jungle bop... heh will errr decide later!

i've been here less than a week and i'm feeling sian already. not a terrific start to term.

a good point so far has been that we've been eating quite well so far.... haha had quite a few cookouts and been eating at quite nice places. mainly cos we're dreading the start of term when the buttery will become the main hangout. but yes eating out = money going (quickly) down the drain. heh but yeahhh nice to see everyone again. and catch up!

a highlight of my moving-back-to-cam has got to be my laptop breakdown. 2 days after i got here, my keyboard suddenly stopped functioning. i totally freaked out. i couldn't even log in, the computing officer was on break and my dad didn't reply my text for agessss! completely freaking out. didn't know what to do. in the end got a usb keyboard (i didn't know they existed! if i did i probably wouldn't have crapped myself like i did). and luckily alexb was nice enough to comfort me and recommend curry's otherwise i would have died from the anxiety. perhaps this is an indication that i should try to learn a bit about computers.

i don't want to go backkkkk!! :(

leaving tonight. am v sad :( :(

this holiday has been pretty.... good i suppose. did SOMe work. this week i was supposed to finish all of HOM so that i would have a few extra days to consolidate stuff when i get back. but did i? NOOOOO of course not. why why why do i keep bumming and watching csi and lousy movies? ayeeeeee. but other than that, had a great time with my family, met up with most of my friends and ate:

crab x3
jap food x4
prawn mee x9
crystal jade x3
lei garden x2
bak kut teh x5
chicken rice x2
roti prata x2

hmmmm not sure what else but i guesss i am quite satisfied. i'm terrified of the food in uk now.

my resolutions for the new term:
1. listen in lectures
2. prepare for supervisions
3. focus when studying
4. exercise
5. be nice to everyone
6. drink less
7. buy less chocolate (brownies are an exception)
8. get enough sleep

yikes i'm scared now that term is starting. i hope everyone doesn't come back a million times smarter than me!!!

bintannnnnn

this was over christmas weekend but i simply couldn't bring myself to blog about it. seriously how can you go from this:
to netter and not feel depressed!?

had a most disgusting ferry ride there. god-forsaken vessel.cos it's the monsoon season, the sea was really really rough. and i mean it. ppl were throwing up and all the retching noises were making me really sick. i just kept praying and praying it would be over soon. the longest 45min of my life. apparently just the week before, the weather was so bad that the ferry couldn't dock for 2hours. i think i would have just thrown myself overboard.

otherwise bintan was awesomeee! thankfully we only had one day of rain. not much sun though. see this is our private pool that overlooks the sea is it cool or what!
basically, banyan tree is amazing. there's no need to do anything else except stay in your villa. oh besides a trip out for CRABBBB

yup but otherwise it's lovely.... we had 2 villas (i.e. 2 bedrooms) the pool, a jacuzzi and an outdoor bath! oh and there's this really really nice er.... i dunno what you call it like a ting2 between both villas where you can just chillllll. :( i want to go back now.

thanks to sarabird, now i have a jewellery stand to hang all my earrings and necklaces neatly!!! hurray, organise organise organise!

today i dug up last year's xmas card from bird bird:

hello gorgeous legs!! look i got nice christmas cards from marks & spencer!! very cheap!! haha, i'm such a cheapo. anyway, i kind of miss hanging out with you in school! :( and i miss hokkien mee, chinese food (SAUSAGE!!!!!) and the noodles. i don't want to grow olddd... and PASTY!! anyway here's wishing you a merry christmas & a happy new year! please continue being my friend, must meet up occasionally! :D

it made me laugh very hard. i dunno. i'm seriously gonna be homesick going back to cam. the past week i've really spent every single minute with my family (and sort of forsaken my few friends. sorry :S) have also been panicking like crazy because i have a physio test when i get back. and i think my supervisor rather dislikes me, which adds quite a bit of pressure. so the past week i've pretty much had tremendous mood swings. feeling immensely happy when i'm with my family. we'd probably appear really dorky and downright weird to other ppl but the way we have so much fun together, able to predict one another, can laugh at the same (really stupid) things.... wahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!! i'm seriously seriously seriously going to miss them loads and loads. then i have times when i simply cannot take it anymore (the studying i mean) and i just feel like crying and staying home forever and ever. i'll bet these mood swings aren't healthy.

damnnn.
