after the lights are down

Am amazed I still had friends willing to travel down to the durian to catch our concourse performance. And I got flowers, of the non-girly blue variety, though the lighting in this photo doesn't do justice to it - I tried to photoshop it though. Many thanks, wing!



For a while I was feeling a bit like the bassist below

"Nobody understands me".

There's this facebook group named "I can't, I've rehearsal", and it has been my regular refrain for the longest time now, and it will be again during the Deepavali week, but forgive me, my friends for neglecting you. Am slowly trying to reclaim social life territory in the next week. (And am not even starting to think of work, yet.)

horrible histories

He should be happy, he just got 143/150 for his Grade 6 cello exam, and I'm mightily impressed. But he is rather musical to begin with. Then again, I think this should give him a good confidence boost which he might need in light of my perfectionist streak.

The newly-transferred student whom I thought would fail got an amazing Merit, which made my socks drop, and now she's saying she can claim her reward from her mum in the form of the $2000 bam case.



Kids these days are totally fortunate.

Now in light of this stream of amazing results I don't want to get back my diploma exam scores because it is going to be totally embarrassing.

O2 care

Antisocialness serves the function of keeping whatever time I have left for myself to recharge, but now I'm being dragged into relationships and this elusive thing called 'friendship' which I'm beginning to think, once articulated, reduces its value and validity. I shall actively re-construct my bubble that has been rudely popped in recent weeks.

blog hopping

Got bored of writing halfway through my family therapy paper, so went to google anorexia in Singapore and stumbled on an extremely fascinating read about a guy who has been undergoing treatment for anorexia. Read all about it here.

Your Seduction Style: Sweet Talker

Your seduction technique can be summed up with "charm" You know that if you have the chance to talk to someone... Well, you won't be talking for long! ;-) You're great at telling potential lovers what they want to hear. Partially, because you're a great reflective listener and good at complementing. The other part of your formula? Focusing your conversation completely on the other person. Your "sweet talking" ways have taken you far in romance - and in life. You can finess your way through any difficult situation, with a smile on your face. Speeding tickets, job interviews... bring it on! You truly live a *charmed life*

What Kind of Seducer Are You?

you won't miss anything if you skip this

This is one of those insomniac nights where I know I should be sleeping after a 14-hour day in school (different ones at different times), because knowing other people are sleeping less does not make me feel any less tired. Knowing that I have another 14-hour day coming up on Friday is not helping.

Randomly went to do a weight check and found out that I am 1 kg away from being labelled 'severely anorexic'. That does not make me feel any better about fats, real or imagined.

I thought my family therapy paper was going to be easy because I chose to do some crap question on 'reflection of how your personal goals have been achieved'. But looking family's functioning in microscopic detail is absolutely terrifying because I realise that my family totally fits into the anorectic s family mold.

There, I said it. Am wondering if I should do anything about it now.

This is what I've been working on recently, too bad the user turned off embedding so I can't show it here, but nevertheless check out this.

Totally hot.
