Not supposed to be here

Well, technically I should not be here. I should be at the other table, revising for upcoming exams. I should be reading about realism, liberalism, marxism, internationalisation, globalization, constitutionalism. Big words, hard to swallow.

Last night, I FINALLY finished my research paper for India civilizational studies. 24 pages in total, inclusive of bibliography. About 9500 words. Took me 1 month of research and many sleepless nights of writing and rewriting. But finally! It's done! The sense of achievement was so great, it made me feel that having no time to study for exams was ALMOST worth it. That's the thing about writing essays. Then I suddenly recalled my secondary school days, where I had to force myself to sit still in order to solve those mathematical sums in front of me. I'll try my best, then I'll tear my hair out, scream, cry, swear. Damn it, Damn it, I'll cry. I'll feel all stupid and dumb and lousy, that the answers don't come to me as easy as it does for the others. Traumatic days. I remember being angry at myself and envious of Shuyu Chan, Shiqi and rainbow. They seemed so smart. If not for Silin with me in my maths class, I guess I would just have disintegrated in misery. Haha.. See Silin, you played such an important role in my life then! Haha.. Still do, by the way. In retrospect, I guess I am just not someone who has the innate ability to resolve things, to fix. Yet, Writing an essay is by no means an extraordinarily easy task, instead its perhaps much more difficult than churning out maths answers. But there's something special about writing. About producing. Every word that I envision now immortalised in pen/microsoft, there's a meaning to this endeavour. It makes me feel alive, more alive than I can ever be. It's this ability to craft languange that's so precious. I don't know if anyone else understands.

Anyway, despite everyone's comments that I should quit the programme that I'm in, because its just so darn stressful and tough, I've at least survived till now. Hopefully my CAP for this sem will be satisfactory.

Oh, and congratulations to darling Wuya! Thanks also for calling all of us when you finished your paper! Even though we have not spoken for ages, the fact that you called, awww. I melted at your sweetness. See you soon! To all the others - hang in there for exams. This sem is almost heaving to a close! I'm so glad.

Lots of love,

Mich =)

let others do the TALKING.

HELLO!! as the title suggests, im not able to TALK.... WHY??? i suddenly lost my voice ( shi SHeng) yesterday.. ME...LYE SI LIN...without voice, and cant talk?!


it just means.... NO VOICE=NO MOOD





BLEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH....





this is definitely unbearable for me to NOT TALK...i was talking to my friend clarissa and i told her about the lost of my voice.. n she goes....HOW CAN IT BE?! how can silin let OTHERS do THE TALKING?!?! ... arhaha...frankly speaking...this is true... i just HAVE TO TALK. I recall the last time i lost my voice, dear ah neh was the victim...arhaha...according to her, i called her and start GABBERING away for one hour.... NONSTOP. hehehe....





well this was definitely smth different... not talking, being the center of attention..sitting back..being the AUDIENCE for once...haha...the hse seems quieter without my voice too!! bleh...





but i did not waste my day sulking away for the lost of my voice!! the plan was to go trim hair, i figured that since im not able to work..might as well make it useful instead of staying at home..haha... i went with the INITIAL plan to TRIM my hair...note the word... TRIM...


i ended up PERMING my hair!! hehe...ok RELAX...not the maggie mee, aunty kind of perm... its the big big kind...that looks natural n nice!! the hairdresser mentioned too...she say...i really SUIT MESSY HAIR...arhaha...





SO...i sat in the salon for 3 freaking hours...(longest time in my life) for my hair to be done...trimed my hair...wash..curling it up...put chemical...wash ... put conditioning chemical...STEAM...wash....i washed my hair 3TIMES... haha...but i like it...it was close to what i wanted... 90bucks...plus treatment is 120..hehe...





gupi asked me to post it here..but no matter how i take..its not able to show much in the pics...so peeps...no pics!! all you can do is come n MEET me to see the REAL thing... no big changes la..juz more volume hair plus abit curl at the back..hee...





Lastly....duno why...beetles seem to LOVE ME!!! at least one comes into my room EVERY SINGLE NIGHT...den they buzz n fly here fly there...den their body will knock against things n make really loud noises....i get too IRRITATED...so i will catch them n release them the next day...hehe... here's a pic of the beetle!!

ok...i know its abit disguisting...haha..

Shen Zhen and Macau were the other 2 places that i went to...

Hong Kong

On the first day, my mum and me met up with her ex pastor (a hong konger). We went to "xing guang da dao"..where there alot of stars' handprints..I saw andy lau's one lei..!

wahah!yea..it looks something liddat!there are a lot more!yea!and trust me..the hotels or rather i would say HK's lodges are super duper small..we need to squeeze one..the hotel i stayed in HK is a 3 star hotel and it's like super small..compared to the 3 star hotel i stayed in Shen zhen there's a .. .. .. .. .. what word shld i use.. there's a "dinosaur" difference!wahahaha!

the above is Hk's lodging..wahah!looks good right!but it's small!wahah!really small!what u see is the delusion of the camera!wahahaha!ooo!and the food in HK.. i would use "YUMMY" to describe it..though they are ordinary stuffs like soya bean and chee cheong fan..but they taste superb!ooo!other than these right..HK i would say, it's really a "mai dong chi dong xi mai dong xi chi dong xi" paradise!wahaha!ooo!not to forget i went to ocean park!it's really a place worth going!!!there's this roller coaster ride that i sat on...!GOSH!i feel my heart popping out!!!i saw pandas too!i love pandas la!they look so nua!GOSH!and i stare at them for 10 mins and i nv see them move at all lei..-_-lll.. perhaps for the "an an" who was eating!dolphins are cute too!i wanna keep them as pets!

Shen zhen

For Shen zhen right! "shi jie zhi chuang" is a place i would recommend all of you to go! They actually spend alot of money building all the prestigious places of the world there! forexample staue of liberty, white house..i saw our merlion, eygpt's pyramid,london bridge..leaning tower of pisa... and so on!a picture speaks a thousand words..see the pictures for yourself!

wahaha!as they always say "like mother, like daughter"!wahah!i think the 2 photos below are damn funny!especially my mum's one!!wahah!she looks like a peeping tom la!-_-lllwahahah!those are sculptures from romans if i am not wrong!wahah!
