The Retrocession

Had some awesome supper night and massive 兜风ing with friends in hall! :D I guess Recess Week is theonly time you can catch up with some breathers before work engulfs all of us again bah. Bought my new Jolin album. DARNED NICE! Her style keeps changing, and it's full of surprises. Since 72变 when I was P6, her transformation has been.... WHOA. 妈的，英文烂到已经不懂怎样describe了…… 就是 赞 啦。 Went to SGH yesterday. Passed by Bt Merah enroute. Tracking the paths my parents took when they first landed in Singapore: Singapore has a lot of interesting places to explore. Sometimes I really wonder whether it is a bliss or not that people neglect them. Why? 小坡 , was the name the elderly used to refer to Bugis area. Then where is 大坡 ? It's Chinatown, across the river.   Rochor Centre 梧槽中心 . Making way for the North-South Expressway soon. Train, no more.

It's amazing how time flies. I was tidying up my room just now, and saw this stack of 剪报s that I had since JC days, preparing for China Studies then.   报纸出刊时是德国统一二十年，退守台湾六十年，which is 2009. It's 2012 now, and I am reading news talking about terrorists killing American diplomats and a new Chinese leadership coming up. I used to wonder how those convicts would feel when they were sentenced to 5 years of jail. Now it seems, that 5 years would just pass with a blink of an eye. Or maybe two. Imagine you will live till a ripe old age of 80, with some CPF to spare. Right now, you have already spend 25% of your life. What have you achieved? What are you  going to achieve? Citing the Germany article as an example, Are you going to attempt something for twenty years and yet still say they it isn't accomplished?

One month into school already. Want to die already haha. I am really surprised (and so is the rest of the studio) how I can remain so chill despite such tight deadlines. 10 more days and I WILL BE THROUGH! Design Module: ARGH 10 DAYS 10 DAYS CRAMMMMM! Structure Module: I have no idea what the lecturer is saying. Ideas Module: Angmoh lecturer. Also no idea what the lecturer is saying. But his slides are nice. Japanese Studies: The most interesting one so far. Angmoh lecturer teaching about 織田 信長 , 徳川 家康 and Battle of Sekigahara and all the Japanese history. Okay lah I'm a history buff, but memorising these names in English is SO NOT EASY. Islam Module: Hmmmm. Interesting too, but I don't what will be tested. Oh did I mention I join Chinese Drama? Pretty interesting, great place to practise Mandarin since Archi studio seems so..... foreign to me. Alcohol is good to keep your lines straight! 天天夜夜，日复一日，年复一年，直到永远。 Yeah lah yeah lah all wear RED ahahhaha
