《赋得古原草送别》白居易

离离原上草，一岁一枯荣。 　　
野火烧不尽，春风吹又生。 　　
远芳侵古道，晴翠接荒城。 　　
又送王孙去，萋萋满别情。

Cca points

Went to check my cca points yesterday. 36. Not bad, i guess, considering i'm not really very busy... But not enough to stay on next sem.. Sigh.. nvm, I don't think I can stand the insects any much longer anyway... Yesterday there was this GIANT beetle that scared the hell out of me. BLOODY HELL... I didn't know what to do, there's no way I'm going to get near it and chase it away, so I just opened the door and stood (very stupid-looking i know) outside my room, hoping it will fly out.. But of course it did not. Eventually Jing Ting walked by and saw me. :P I told her what happened and she went in to have a look. She didn't see anything and said it must have flown out. Well, I know insects aren't smart enough to get out when they are not welcomed, so I went in and *GASP* saw it on my towel. Luckily Jing Ting walked past again and she very bravely took the towel out and shook the beetle away. Very grateful to her!!!

The beetle was big, like 2.5cm long. And the usual ones are enough to get my heart pounding furiously, so...you can imagine my terror.

Will be checking out on 11May. Pretty fast. Uni life is fast. Whew and it's gone.

累

好累啊。

eyes open but brain not working.

reading the js coursepack but can't understand a word..it's about language and there're a lot of technical terms like auxiliary verb, case particles, nominative case function..wtf. just skipped that whole chunk.

and weekend need to pia 2 lab reports and gek project and our js proposal got rejected and evt is so screwed.

被一切压得喘不过气。。。

Singapore Police Abduction (wad an interesting heading)

Saw this video on youtube yesterday... I was quite befuddled..dunno what the whole thing was about until I went to check..the woman in the video is Dr Chee Soon Juan's sister Chee Siok Chin , also a member of SIngapore Democratic Party.


Quite interesting.. there's a part 2:



Initially I thought this woman's so strange. I'd thought she was a tourist, why's she so insistent on going into that hotel? 原来是反对党的。。。and any comments on youtube that's against is given a poor rating..bleh

I Shouldn't be Alive

I just watched the first episode of the above Discovery Channel documentary. 很震撼.

It's all just about survival. I can barely imagine the psychological trauma, the physical pain, watching your friend lose their mind and die... And how the survivors cry when they recount those days and are thankful of each single day.

It's good to be alive.

感叹。。。

好闷。不想revise。went to a talk by Professor Jocelyn Bell just now. Saw a lot of secondary sch and jc students. Made me feel sooo old. Made me long for the past. 好讨厌现在，好怀念过去。

and so I went to visit my school websites. RV 的感觉非常陌生。can't remember how the layout was like in the past, just feel that the current one is verey different. 想在网站找一些可以怀旧的东西，但都是一些achievements and links that require you to log in. Makes you feel very excluded. Bleh. 网站上的照片尽是一些没见过的面孔。Feel very detached from RV, and that makes me feel sad. I dunno, the school building's gone, my teachers are mostly gone, girls are allowed to keep their hair long, the school's gone ip... Really miss those good old days...

NJ's site is mostly still the same. maybe because I graduated more often??? Sadz cannot log into KM anymore..haha can't remember how it looks like.. Anyway this has more to explore than RV's. I went to the staff list and looked through every single staff. 有些人没看过（应该是新人吧），有些没有教过我但有见过．．nevertheless felt a surge in feelings when I see their pictures.. Sigh what a short time I'd spent in NJ...　“陈建彬”，“辉哥”，mrs khoo (somehow i'm reminded of copying bio spa answers in the lab... scary) , mrs teai (those days as physics rep), alvin leong, mr chee ( I rmb he taught maclaurin series and one maths s session with the vampire-looking female teacher..come to think of it I didn't see her picture on the site..maybe she's left?) , om mr tan (those days when ming shu andi had to look for him for CL matters..bleh), Ms Phua (haha always shunning her although my attire was perfectly fine..those horrible tales they told during orientation), Mr Simon Tan, Mr Song, Mr Lee (won't forget the day xiao wei and I skipped maths lecture and met him in the library :P), Mr Tan Wei (not much impression, he had a nice bike?), Mrs Cheng (haha...), Mr Wee (form teacher.. his wide and cheeky(?) grin), Mdm Woon...

光阴一去不复返啊！

P.S. Today is 29Feb. Once every four years whoa..

Ancient Greek artifacts on display in Singapore!!!!!!

I went to the National Museum of Singapore yesterday with my mom and aunts to visit the Greek exhibits!!! So exciting.. Think I've been there before when I was in primary school, but nevertheless I couldn't remember the route there..So paiseh had to ask around (ask a foreigner somemore..bleh) We saw Mark Lee and Vivian Lai at the entrance. Haha didn't dare to go say hi..felt so weird.

This is the ticket-puncher used in the past.. this was in the history gallery.. we visited this before hitting the basement for the greek exhibits

This is a funeral lion..

Don't feel very satisfied cos I was rushing..cos the adults walked one round and they were done. When I was still at the first few exhibits. Sigh. And we were all hungry... I felt that something was lacking.. Later then I realised there were no paintings, which I were expecting.
