Why am I up so early?

Cause I still have a solid 200pgs of biology yet to be memorized.
Whereas a WHOOPING 600pgs of Chemistry.




and on the other hand, I finally went to church yesterday, after months of hiatus. It felt great to go back again, seeing all the very welcoming faces.


and also, a shoutout to my lil bro in Australia. Happy Birthday and hope you have an awesome one.



Gawsh the fonts in those textbooks SUPER small sumore.
800pages! are you kidding me.

Let It Rock - Kevin Rudolf ft Lil Wayne

I couldnt find any embeddable music video for this song so yea whatever. Anyway this song is good.


I know. I am slow in discovering songs. 

Thursday, March 05, 2009

anyway

even though I am super busy right now, I just have to share this with everyone.


The International's Ending Title. Composed by the most amazing musician in this world.
Never thought a movie's soundtrack could sound this good.


I
CANNOT
STOP 
LISTENING.


THIS SONG IS SOOO GOOD.
I'm soooo tired.
My mind feels saturated
My mental capacity is greatly reduced.
My head feels raw.

quick update

Okay expect no updates from me for the coming days. It's exams time.

Just some short updates:-

1) Going to join a quiz. Will update on it if I manage to pass the preliminary rounds and get a free ride to KL. If not then let this be a vague memory.

2) Mouse dissection photos. Up on facebook again. This time my mouse had embryos in it and my friend had foetuses. I think we both need to go for confessions.

3) Jason Mraz live in KL tomorrow. CISSSS. And Sarah Brightman live in KL. This Saturday. RAHHHHHHHHHHH. (the vip seat for sarah's concert cost RM1000++. Talk about making bank)

4) Pete's new album. 13 days to go.

5) Holidays. 11 days to go. =DDD

6) The Hills ain't bad at all. I used to dislike watching it but ever since Privileged was cancelled i had to find a substitution.


:)

lesson of the week

I was basically feeling fatigued throughout the whole week, even after hours of sleeps and rests. My body felt like it was carrying twice the load as usual and well, I was tired. Simple as that.

On Friday night, I suddenly remembered this

"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest" Matthew 11:28

I think it is chapter 11 verse 28 if I'm not mistaken. Someone countercheck please.

and I think you all should know what happened next.

So after praying, as odd and for some, impossible as it sounds, I just suddenly felt lively again. I was not tired anymore. It felt like someone has took all the burdens off my shoulder. It's hard to explain but I hope everyone understand what I'm trying to say here.

So yea, this is my story which I'll like to share this week, especially to those who are heavy-laden, be it emotionally, physically, mentally or spiritually.

That will be all.


It just felt like I've slept for a thousand years!!
Waking up feeling greatly rejuvenated

update as of 25/2

Gawsh I'm so tired right now my brain feels raw.

Okay so exam week is like, 8 days away and I have not started on my revision yet. But in the midst of approaching exam week, we still have short tests, topical tests and random assessments. Blah.

It feels like being in Primary 1 to Form 5, all in one.

This is what i have to revise:

Chemistry - Matter, Gaseous State, Liquid and Solid States, Electronic Structure of Atom, Periodic Table, Chemical Bonding, Intermolecular Forces of Attraction, Chemistry of Carbon, Alkane, Alkene, Arenes, Haloalkanes

Biology - Reproduction, Taxonomy, Biodiversity, Immunity, Hormones, Nervous System, Homeostasis, Transports, Gaseous Exchange.


This is insane.

lesson of the day

A quote strucked me while I was watching Brothers & Sisters today.

"Whatever pain all this is causing is worth it because the moment this is over you'll be so grateful for every screw ups, every dissapointments, all the uncertains because in the end it has all led you to what you want"

Which led me to imply:
Life may have been rough these 2 years. I was not able to get a scholarship nor was i able to even go to a college and instead i was left to face F6, one of the toughest years any teens would dread to go through but this is all going to pass because in the end, I will still be getting into an university. Then I'll be grateful for every single moment that led me to that.



it's a bit deep but at least it's meaningful.

I will get through this. I swear nothing will bring me down.

random updates

No inspiration lately. So this is my update..i guess.




You Are 8% Nerdy



You are definitely not nerdy - in fact, you probably don't know any nerds.

You probably care a little too much about your image. No one will know if you secretly watch Star Trek reruns!






You Are Somewhat Mature



You definitely act like an adult sometimes, but a big part of you is still a kid at heart.

While your immature side is definitely fun, you're going to have to grow up sooner or later.






You Are 16% Gross



You're not gross, but you tend to think everyone else is. And you're right... they are!

Some people may think you're a neat freak, but at least you'll never die of flesh eating bacteria.

photos

Facebook's Photo Album

Flickr's Photo Album

Rat dissection photos are in those links above. I didn't think posting those photos here would be very appropriate.

Imagine someone new bumps into this blog and the first thing that they see are overly-exposed rats.

Anyway instead, I've decided to post some other photos which are more subtle.


Drawing of mouse's organ


i was bored


runaway hamster


no we didnt dissect it.


Our class only countdown to 3 important events.
2010 - Graduation year
X'mas - My favourite day
1st sem's holiday - Everyone's favourite week


Too tired after all the events today: Almost got killed, then was spared, then ran away, got caught anyway, tried to escape but failed.


We thought the mouse would be interested to bring it home.

upcoming albums..

which I'll be looking forward to.

1) Muse - September 2009
I just hope they don't postpone it again.

2) Pete Doherty - 16th March 2009


Any other suggestions?

on mice and rats

I didn't manage to catch any rats this time. Whatever happened to all of them.

Anyway dissection pt.2 tomorrow

Pictures anyone? =D


Oh and I was suppose to go to Chemistry's extra classes later. Doubt I'll go. I think I'm falling for another round of fever again. Schnap.

and again, chemistry

WHY DO I HAVE CHEMISTRY'S TEST EVERY SINGLE WEEK! RAHH IT'S DRIVING ME MADDDDDD.


Oh the other hand, one of my good friend just disappointed me very much. I'm not trying to be all dramatic but sorry it's over. I've given u plenty of chance but you've let me down every single time.

It's over.

Beyonce - Halo

I have to admit, this is the only song from her that I actually like and is actually close to somewhat addicted. 




This is her at the NAACP Image Awards yesterday. I recommend watching this in high quality.

Or if the above video has already been deleted due to copyrights claim(just like what happened to the Coldplay performance I've posted), you'll just have to listen to it instead.

okay quick update

I went to the doctor today because I wasn't feeling well and to my utmost horror(& as any patient would), the doctor asked me to go to the nearest hospital's ER a.s.a.p.

Had a X-Ray scan and ECG reading. 


I really thought I was in deep shit.


Will blog more on this later on. 



Oh and btw, Happy Valentine's Day y'all. No matter u're single or unavailable, u can always spend this day with your loved one, be it gf/bf, family members or even your close friends.

Coldplay

I'd always thought their earlier songs were rubbish.
But Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends was good. Pretty awesome



This was them performing at yesterday's 51st Grammy Award. Oh and btw, thank goodness for CGM's holiday. Or else I wouldn't have been able to watch the Grammy Awards.


Life In Technicolor II. awesome song.


This is still my favourite song from the album. Viva la Vida
