A Black Christmas

It's no doubt the darkest Christmas I've ever spent. But like Samsung, it's really Not That Hard to Imagine. Piles and stacks of projects of 7 modules are already pushing me to the boundary. Since the final semester started in November, I was very much hopping for the term break to come so that I can take a deep breath. But not so. Everything is so scheduled till my body suffers. I'm now in (quite a) severe state of sleep deprivation. Insomnia comes again. IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) comes as usual too. My stress level is at historical high, worse than anytime before, not even 'O' Levels can beat it. My desktop is full of Words, Excel and PDF icons and I wonder what if my laptop crashes again. Repeat sem? Shut up. I want to leave school on time... 

How to reduce stress can anyone assist me!! I wish I had a 'virtual wheelchair' to help me ride out the storm. But isn't this a challenge in life? I thought. So just tell me how to fish and I'll fish for everyone. Again, my eating syndrome is here again. Notice how much physical changes I have since the begining of this yeaR? PLUM. My face is now so chubby. WTH. How I wish I could get slimmer like before, feeling less tired and more alert. My hair is like a piece of grassland with overgrown weeds. RaRRR!!! I want a visit to the beach. Like where Mr Bean went in his movie and make a deep breathe over there and gladly says 'everything is over'. Hope!! I'm dreaming... and still dreaming. Still dreaming myself in a Honda driving someone to Changi beach. Whhoops! I think I'm too stressed up.. Need an avenue to de-stress. Driving is fun! I'm starting to miss the ahpek lorry already... Although it's old, it's power sia!! It's just so fun... Sis was like asking me to print a photo of my dream car and paste it over my bed just so that I can get it one day. Get it? Her law of attraction, again. Perhaps one day I'll paste my photo in her room for goodness sake. 

Saw the poem below? Well written, chatterbox told me. It was written under a dimmed moonlight, gloomy sky and a glass of red wine. Sounds classic eh? Oh well, that's a great feeling of mine. Hope to go Genting next month and sit by the 'cliff', litterally submerged in the clouds, and obtain a fresh series of thoughts. Starting anew? Not really, I haven't been down lately. I don't need a new life just because of stress, given after the 'stressed' up period, sweet things will subsequently come. 

STRESSED => DESSERTS

Try reading 'stressed' from the opposite direction. Let's await for the day to come!! Anyway,

There are so many happy things in life than to die for.

'Die' as in giving up. Don't give up, Zhenyu!

End of Feb = End of School life!! Sadly Subway is coming to nyp yet I'm leaving... Have to make do with the one at lot one. Wahaha. 

28 December 2008. 2nd Annual Pot Luck Dinner. Heartfelt thanks to sylvia and people for sharing the workload. This years' party is expected to be smaller, with more and more people backing out from the attendance list. Though I guess it won't be so grand as its inaugural counterpart last year, I believe what matters is the quality time we get together, lest the degree of appreciation of the ones attending. Last year's APLD was great because I gambled in most of my time. Though it was a success, I failed two modules on the other hand. It's a heavy loss, to be remembered for the whole of my life time. I just hope that I can quietly leave the management and still see it working well like before, or even better. But sometimes it's just so difficult. It's three years of hard work and still there's no physical evidence of it, except for the website, which I doubt many people have treated it with pride. It's like a ladder; you need the first step to get to the next. Now that you're somewhere above, invisible are the steps taken except to yourself. What not, a missed step you'll fall hard on the ground. Is it worth to stay, or quit, or even climb further? It's just to say how easy it is to cripple everything simply by being stagnant. 

Money money must be funny. I laugh when I see my wallet being hungry. So am I, no big deal. A christmas under the light of poverty. I'm poor! Gonna save, save and save. Currently, I tink i have no extra time and money to spare for other things. Camping in the school library could well save me some bucks at the malls out there.

It's a black, black christmas... 

AND MY AIRCON BROKE DOWN. WTH. Merry X'mas, Daikin.


Chalet was fun! Extremely fun and lovely!

The Rosy Smiles

Smooth canyon a sight of lie

Snowman breaks if wartime comes

Miseries gloomed the mystical sky

Many faces but a wonderful smile.
