haha it just struck me that that's a lot funnier than i thought it was. HAHA.
yay i new sofa assembled itself in my living room! and its like L-shaped so i can fall asleep watching tv while facing the tv! how infinitely exciting.
yay for chem!
i wasn't feeling well yesterday and today but after spamming a total of about 10 polyC/bodyrox/echinecea (however its spelt)/manuka honey/lozenges i think i'm much better now!
yay yay nice buffet dinner (with lots of seafood!) tmr with cousins! but bleah cannot overdo it coz cannot train intensively now that im not exactly well and napfa is coming in 2.5 weeks o.o and NS medical O.O and i just stopped shaking my leg and it feels weird.
i'm going to stop leaving work to night time or when i feel like doing it and push myself to do it very soon after i get home so i can sleep earlier and not get superbly tired and fall sick some more. yay.
i LOVE choir pracs now that i've found my beautiful (but maybe not THAT consistent) high tenor range XD i like like song of triumph a lot! miao.
Great and marvelous are Your deeds,
Lord God Almighty,
Just and true are all your ways;
You, O Lord, over all are King
Who will not fear You, O Lord, and bring glory to Your Name?
For You alone are holy.
All natios shall come and worship before You,
For Your mighty and holy acts have been revealed.
Great and marvelous are Your deeds,
Law-awd God Al-maaaaaaaai-teeeeee.

3) Little Men / Little Women - Louisa May Alcott

dean's list
yay i finished mugging 9 topics for bio today! just the notes though..tutorials come later if there's time :) there's not much time to mug everything as thoroughly as julian who has some superb computer memory =.= there really is a whole lot to memorise for bio sighs. 3 more mega topics and 2 light topics for bio left. out of 22 topics in total. woots.
totally randomly, i exercise excessively when i'm mugging hard for CTs/exams, especially when i'm mugging bio. i think it's all the free energy within me that has to be released but which i can't afford to waste any time on by going to the park to run around and what not. so i end up doing a lot of workouts everywhere in the house. like i must have done a total of 50 pull ups this afternoon in sets of 4-5. haha like when i was memorising DNA translation process i did 1 pull up per sub-section. meaning..um..1,2,3,4a,4b,4c,5 = 7 pull ups! yayz. and multiple push ups. and sit ups. and i'm proud to say i walked in and out of my study room about a million times while mugging! ha =) Bio Bursts Bennett's Brain
the more i think about it, the further away chem dean's list seems to get from me T.T

emotions
Extract from Tuesdays with Morrie:"If you hold back on the emotions - if you don't allow yourself to go all the way through them - you can never get to being detached, you're too busy being afrad. You're afraid of the pain, you're afraid of the grief. You're afraid of the vulnerability that loving entails."
"But by throwing yourself into these emotions, by allowing yourself to dive in, all the way, over your head even, you experience them fully and completely. You know what pain is. You know what love is. You know what grief is. And only then can you say, 'All right. I have experienced that emotion. I recognise that emotion. Now I need to detach from that emotion for a momemnt.'"
"...When you learn how to die, you learn how to live."
I (the author, not bennett) thought about how often this was needed in everyday life. How we feel lonely, sometimes to the point of tears, but we don't let those tears come because we are not supposed to cry. Or how we feel a surge of love for a partner but we don't say anything because we're frozen with the fear of what those words might do to the relationship.
Morrie's approach was exactly the opposite. Turn on the faucet. Wash yourself with the emotion. It won't hurt you. It will only help. If you let the fear insdie, if you pull it on like a familiar shirt, then you can say to yourself, "All right, it's just fear, I don't have to let it control me. I see it for what it is."
Same for loneliness: you let go, let the tears flow, feel it completely - but eventually be able to say, "All right, that was my moment with loneliness. I'm not afraid of feeling lonely, but now I'm going to put that loneliness aside and know that there are other emotions in the world, and I'm going to experience them as well."
--------
food for thought huh :p
i've been trying 3 nights in a row now to upload photos to blogger but it just gets stuck when its complete =.=

trouble trouble
a) I.
b) Personally feel that.
c) Today was quite a happy day.
- Saturday morning exercise: run 2 rounds, pull ups, started to rain, push ups, planks, phantom chair, jump up and down stadium steps, bathe
- prac: i love wade in de water. would absolutely love parce and other sacred songs once i have my refresher on how to make do with the disgusting voice i have and sing properly. etc etc.
- lunch: zzz
- sign language course: EXCITING. was 45 minutes late coz prac ended late then took our time to leave school and eat lunch as usual -.- but managed to catch up quite quickly. so i can sign the alphabet, numbers, and random words/phrases and names! then when the teacher went round testing us the signing of our names then i could do it! then he said something like if i attended all the lessons i could possibly be the top signing student! HAHAHA. orh.
- rest of the day: went home, bathed again, plonked down on the couch to re-read anne of green gables and dozed off into blissful dreamland, woke up feeling unnaturally happy because of some dream i could actually remember in detail when i awoke but can't anymore, mugged equilibria, dinner with cuzzes and watched tv, mugged and mugging organic chem (oh yeah and staggered practising piano), then blogging and chatting.
happy day.
hmm i'm starting to wonder if i'm being too idealistic in viewing my relationships.
bananas are high in potassium which stimulates one to be happy too.
