HAHA

my embryology supervision report:

"Ying Mei made copious notes and seems on top of the subject, though she didn't say a lot. She made one or two very perceptive remarks."

HAHAHAHAHA
actually, i was the only one in the supervision who didn't make notes. because the first time i tried to copy his drawings, they looked like poo and i still didn't understand anything.

i don't think i even made any remark during supervisions. perceptive or not!

most definitely NOT on top of the subject, mr dean!

tried out this THING that jon recommended.

funny the hypothesis was wrong for me as well. i picked mostly extroverts. hmmm.

Drops of Jupiter - Train

i really really LOVE these lyrics. as jon said, the metaphors are amazing. and no, the wind hasnt swept me off my feet yet.

Now that she's back in the atmosphere
With drops of Jupiter in her hair
She acts like summer and walks like rain
Reminds me that there's time to change
Since the return from her stay on the moon
She listens like spring and she talks like June

Tell me did you sail across the sun
Did you make it to the Milky Way to see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated
Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there

Now that she's back from that soul vacation
Tracing her way through the constellation
She checks out Mozart while she does tae-bo
Reminds me that there's room to grow
Now that she's back in the atmosphere
I'm afraid that she might think of me as plain ol' Jane
Told a story about a man who is too afraid to fly so he never did land

Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back to the Milky Way
And tell me, did Venus blow your mind
Was it everything you wanted to find
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there

Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken
Your best friend always sticking up for you even when I know you're wrong
Can you imagine no first dance, freeze dried romance five-hour phone conversation
The best soy latte that you ever had . . . and me
Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back toward the Milky Way

Sitting in today, watching traffic buzzing by, and faces nosing in
A victim of regret, it glitters and it fades away, like silver turning grey
Washed it all away, waiting for this dream to end, before it sucks me in
I'm climbing high, up above the streets and rows of neon lights
I'm holding out my hand but I'm alone

Wish I could show you
Wish you could see through my eyes
Tomorrow shines through
But I'm missing yesterday

Crashing on the ground, the silence seems to suffocate, and bury me again
Waiting for a taste, of happiness to lift me free, and carry me away
I'm climbing high, up above the streets and rows of neon lights
I know it's just a dream but I'm alive

Lost another week, feeling like a leper in, a world of vanity
It's killing me today, addiction pulls you down, you know
And she's the drug I need

Wish I could show you
Wish you could see through my eyes
Tomorrow shines throughBut I'm missing yesterday

listening to this.
reading archives.
looking at photos.

haha was a pretty amazing trip!

haven't got everyone's photos yet though....

EIC is so so so so good!!

you know, i really cannot wait for all of this to end. there are SO MANY THINGS to do after pros.

therefore i must work damn hard.

it's only the first year, and i'm ALREADY so so so tired. but i cant really complain cos i chose to do this. and it's not like i feel that tortured, cos i actually do enjoy some parts of it. most of the time. (except for the exams part. which is unfortunately inevitable.)

today we spent 3 hrs playing basketball, and it was fun. it's been AGES since i actually exercised with people around; most of the time i either run or swim, and it can get so super majorly boring. but now my fourth right proximal interphalangeal joint is dying. hmmm i dont even know if i got that right.

and i think i somehow managed to screw my whole life up. maybe i should do sth to rectify the situation. after pros.

why. is itunes. playing all these songs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

medics!!!!! screw msoc!
rob (smashed) tom (hammered) julius (just happy) charlotte (drunken come-to-bed eyes) kat (moshing) me (token asian girl) hannah (sambuca queen)

haha it was a good night.

Yellow - Coldplay

Look at the stars
Look how they shine for you
And everything you do
Yeah, they were all yellow

I came along
I wrote a song for you
And all the things you do
And it was called "Yellow"

So then I took my turn
Oh what a thing to have done
And it was all "Yellow"

And Your skin
Oh yeah your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
You know you know I love you so
You know I love you so

I swam across
I jumped across for you
Oh what a thing to do
'Cuz you were all yellow

I drew a line
I drew a line for you
Oh what a thing to do
And it was all "Yellow"

And your skin
Oh yeah your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
And you know
For you I'd bleed myself dry
For you I'd bleed myself dry

It's true
Look how they shine for you
Look how they shine for you
Look how they shine for you
Look how they shine for you
Look how they shine for you
Look how they shine

Look at the stars
Look how they shine for you
And all the things that you do

and no event is complete without... my bestest friends! (and ed. haha!)

thursday involved being locked up in my room to mug for isbm and msoc. positively died. but got special delivery of chicken rice to my room. hahhaha

friday's exam was..... quite hard. am a bit worried. but after that pub lunch with the medics! went to the granta by the river... the weather was amazing!!! sunny and just a bit cold.
then went to surprise saraho with the christ ppl.. and unfortunately destroyed the present surprise. played tennis for a bit after that. am very lousy now. blame it on the racquet though!

and then.

JINGLES! st paddy's day warm up. best bop of the term! almost ALMOST trumps kua si mi?! seriously it was a fricking fun night! hannah got me 50p shots of sambuca (yucky) but well i only had to pay a pound for drinks.... and then she and charlotte bought me one more shot each. got quite hammered i think. but i remembered the night. tom and rob were completely smashed! hahahha all the medics were! top night really! danced half the night with the medics (post exam drunkeness) and then the other with my chinatown friends. hahhah seriously amazing! i think the most fun abt it is cos you know almost everyone there and well at least the medics were going all out! haha awesome :D after party in ben's room. everyone was still damn high.

today pack for italy. whee

so kua si mi?! was a total success! :) :) :) :)

will blog about it when i no longer have to study about old people and why women shouldn't be allowed education (so that blood that should go to the womb won't be diverted to the brain)

but anyway.

read NEW STRAITS JUNK.

our cumsa (cambridge sing soc) newletter. amazing entry.

temporary relief! yayyyy.

CAs are finally over, even though "finally" seems quite an extreme word for only 3 days. but still, finally! it's so funny how during CA period you can find a million and one things to do (go online, do random things, read a book [and no, i dont mean the snell kind of book], do everything except study) but when CAs end there seems to be nothing to do!! maybe it's just cos there's more time on hand and after letting the usual things distract you, there's nothing else to take up your time.

i was listening to my older mp3s that day and i found "something beautiful" by robbie williams.

You can't manufacture a miracle
The silence was pitiful that day
Love is getting too cynical
Passion's just physical these days
You analyze everyone you meet
But get no sign, love ain't kind
Every night you admit defeat
And cry yourself blind

If you can't wake up in the morning
Cause your bed lies vacant at night
If you're lost, hurt, tired or lonely
Can't control it, try as you might
May you find that love that won't leave you
May you find it by the end of the day
You won't be lost, hurt, tired and lonely
Something beautiful will come your way

The DJ said on the radio
Life should be stereo each day
In the past you cast the unsuitable
Instead of some kind of beautiful
You just couldn't wait
All your friends think you're satisfied
But they can't see your soul
Forgot the time feeling petrified
When they lived alone

If you can't wake up in the morning
Cause your bed lies vacant at night
If you're lost, hurt, tired or lonely
Can't control it, try as you might
May you find that love that won't leave you
May you find it by the end of the day
You won't be lost, hurt, tired and lonely
Something beautiful will come your way
