I don’t know if what I’m doing is right anymore. I didn’t know I had so many layers myself. Things just get more complicated. There are so many things that I want to do but I know I can’t, because of some reason or another. Why must there be a restriction called Time? I realised that all problems in the world boils to a single source – Time with its irreversibility. If there wasn’t the concept of Time, then we could do everything we wanted, since there was enough ‘space’ for us to have fun and try things one after another. But with Time, everything got restricted. You have to give up somethings in order to not waste time on others. You haven’t got all the time in the world to try things one after another. You are forced to make decisions, to forsake those options that your heart is in favour of and go with those that are logically sound to the mind instead. Logic over emotions. If I had more time, or there wasn’t even an issue of Time to start with, I would very very much like to dive into what we could have. But with time in place, I simply have to consider so so many other factors.
Somehow I don’t think what I’m doing now is right. But I don’t know what should or how it can be right either. It just seems to be the natural thing I would do anyways. Oh well, if someone could just tell me. Logic versus emotion. Practicality versus desire. Damn. I hope it’ll be ok. We’ve all been through so much together. I don’t want to look at our photos and see more invisible cracks appearing across it. I already have.
And that 8782.

After one week of staying at home or going out with my ma, I’ve enough of holidays already. If things are going to stay like that throughout, I really can’t wait to start school or special sem already. The only other person I see and interact with is my mother, which half of the time isn’t a pleasant one. We’re pretty bipolar at home, swinging from best friends to sworn enemies in war over the simplest things like unwashed cups. I’m bored, frustrated and pissed staying at home. And I have to force myself to go running/cycling/swimming everyday which I don’t need to when I’m out. Being out just gives me the energy to do every damn thing I want and can do. My house just saps the energy out of me, rendering me useless and glued to the comp screen with Naruto playing on episode after episode.
I can’t see the people I want to see. I can’t talk to the people I want to talk to. When there was still school, I could see them everyday or whenever I want, even those who ain’t in NUS since I had the freedom to meet anyone without reporting to anyone. Gosh, two weeks into holidays and I’m already missing people. And it’s not even as if I haven’t seen them for gathering and outings. Crap, I think I’m just addicted. What kind of addiction is that anyways! >.< Then again, this is probably the cooling off period for us to slowly face the fact that the past times are no more and that the brand new acad year doesn’t promise us the same amount of fun anymore. *emo*
But then again, why am I not putting enough effort to be in yours?

The kite was flown high and far. But alas, the string was never really cut. The remnant threads that held it together allowed it to be reeled in yet again. Slowly, in the rain.
Shit, where did that come from! Must be the kukup kite flying experience. But it does resemble some things in life right now.
Can't life be a little less complicated? Both on the table and below the table?

Camping in front of the teevee now, excited about the election results, putting all other stuff on hold. A far cry from yesterday. A day of emotional testings, blows but all amidst a fun filled day out with the guys and my dear Hy.
Went to send WL off in the morning, early morning actually. Three out of four of us were battling the zzZ monster along the way there. Sw, just and I went out till late the previous night. Da jie was late too. Haha! WL should be touched by us ok, since we were his only 'fans' ( I would have brought electric fans to up the number if I knew that he was so pathetic. Lol) got to see his dad too, and he treated us to cake. Haha. WL brought enough luggage to last him at least two years although he's going for only 6 months! Crazy guy! I hate departures these kind of stuff coz I'm always at a loss for words. I'm never good at saying anything nice or caring, even during other departures that I have attended. I feel, but words always seem to get stuck or get dissolved somewhere down the throat.
The guys accompanied me to ICA building after that to get my passport done. Much appreciated! =] and we went on to Golden Mile food center to have awesome lunch. Just and me almost died eating the chilli prawn mee. Just was totally melting under the heat! And then came the highlight of the day!
Guava and coconut got lost!!! The terrible direction sense! Two hour before and they hopped on to a bus from school. One hour later we called them only to find out that they have overshot like crazy and landed up in katong. Yet they were STILL on the bus, nt wanting to get off! Omg luh. Then later they almost took the wrong bus down to town too! So in the end we didn't meet them for lunch. Met coconut for a short little while only, while guava did come along w us for movie later on. They're super lol!
Watched fast and furious. Awesome movie. Highly recommended for all gatherings. Great for both girls and guys. Hawt babes, hawt guys. =] the exit from the theatre was hilarious beyond hilarious! The guys were all having a bursting bladder!! And they just zoomed off at top speed trying desperately to find a toilet, leaving us strolling and laughing hysterically behind! They were all walking in extremely weird positions.
Dinner at Xin Wang was emo max. Htht-ed about alot alot of things. Nice food though. Made me rethink alot of my decisions that I made in the past one year. Made me think if I have been living for others rather than for myself. Made us all think about how the relationships and friendships between all who are in the MC have changed since the day our term began. The complication of many things, the would-have-beens and perhaps-will-be.
I have much to regret about in the past one year, not asking what i have always wanted to know, not doing something before it was too late. But what is too late?
And to a dear friend, I have been trying very hard to weave our friendship back together again, after all that damage that you have done. I wanted it to go the silent way, to reduce damage on both of us. Sometimes things unspoken speaks more about for itself than saying it out into the face, yet at the same time it'll still prevent further hurt and future awkwardness. And what did you do? You just used a scissors and snipped off the last remnants of threads holding all these together. It's like breaking a mirror. Now that it's like that, why would I sacrifice myself to pick up and put back the pieces when I would cut myself by the shattered pieces?! Why couldn't you just let it fade away? Haven't you thought about the repercussions? I had felt sorry for doing all these to you. But now, maybe not so. You made things go this way, the road that I was trying so damn hard not to take. I could fairly well totally ignore you since the issue. But I didn't! Argh. It's pretty frustrating that things are the way they are now.

As things heat up in the Singapore General Elections, mugging heats up for me as well. I know I’m supposed to be mugging like crazy for my last two papers, which are unfortunately the worst of all four, but the GE is much too distracting for me to sit still, mug and let nature take its course out there in the political field. I’ve watched almost all the videos on Youtube regarding the GE, heard almost all of the candidates speak and read at least 50 articles that netizens have put online illustrating their thoughts. Some are friends, some are extremists, some are pretty neutral yet they all wowed me with their thoughts and expressions. So despite the dark looming future of my eight modular credits, I shall pen down some of the questions that have obvious answers to them, and you do have the answers as well.
Lee used the word ‘repent’ yesterday, stating that voting the Opp in would allow the Aljunied residents to have 5 years to repent. Repent is a word used by higher beings. So has voting out the rulling party become a sin?
Media coverage. We’ve all seen that there’s almost 60% airtime for the ruling party, yet only a meagre 40% for all the other Opp parties put together. Is this fair? Is it because they have realised that there’re so few people attending their rallies that they should make use of their power over the media to advertise?
I thought ‘mentoring’ meant giving advice and guidance. Now why is the old man becoming the spokesperson instead? Hasn’t he already walked-over in his own GRC? Isn’t it time for the younger ones (some not exactly very young also la) to step up and show their competency and let the old man rest? People have criticised Old Chiam for running in the race despite his ill health and age. Why then can the Old Lee go on? They both are the faces of their parties, but now shouldn’t we be voting for their younger counterparts instead of harping on the old? They’re the ones we recognise, so they need to be there to show and introduce us their younger ones. So people, think about the future.
Ok wait, I need to lunch and mug now. I can continue on this forever. Will be back soon. In the meantime, stay tuned to insing.com for live streaming of rallies.
P.S.I do admit I’m a little bias towards a certain party, who isn’t? People make choices, isn’t that what we are supposed to do? If not, what's the point of elections and voting? =P
