Woe is 221.I just finished my 221 News article. Many days of sweat (from nervousness) and blood (from careless escalator accidents resulting in vampire-like wounds on right leg), and I'm finally done. Which is just nice, because the deadline is 10.30am tomorrow morning. I really would like to give a great big evil laugh eg. Muahahahhahaha and so on, because its finally done. Even the weather is compliant enough- it's a thunderstorm out there now- and nothing beats the deadly combo of evil laugh+background lightning and thunder. But it's 1am in the dead of the night, so a polite smile to myself will have to suffice. Eureka! The darn trend story is done! And I am free from the clutches of Hedwig, at least until tomorrow 12.30pm. (That's when tutorial starts and Hedwig's deathtrap resets itself) My my, 221 is making me mad. I should stop talking rubbish now and go to sleep la. Like, now. Like, now. Like, now. Like, now. Like, now. Like, now. Like, now. Like, now. Like, now. Like, now. Labels: CS221

Simplicity and Complexity.Why do people think so much sometimes? Just a few weeks ago, I presented my assignment in class. It was a series of 6 photographs with a theme, and hopefully a sequence. Hence, I put out one which showed a guy on a bike who got distracted by a girl and he knocked into a tree. Other presentations made were of topics such as "ethics", "two-faced", "Phobias", etc. The photos needed some thinking before the class could understand. Mine was, I daresay, the simplest. At first, I started out wanted to do something that talked about "Waiting", and had wanted to include a photo that showed a person gorging on pills- that would be "waiting to die". Then, I really thought about it and finally decided, what was I trying to convey? Was I trying to be shocking, controversial, or what? I didn't have the answer, so I changed my mind on doing that. Instead, I did a story of the guy. I could relate to this story- I've been distracted a million times. I like the mild humour it contains. And I didn't take those photos from the internet, I took them myself. So, even though it was the simplest, I didn't mind. Sometimes, simple things in life are also worth to be pondered over and to be admired.

It eludes me, like a secret. Some parts of me are happy for that, some not so much.As Muummy says, it'll come when it comes.

Why can't I stop ranting and start playing?Why can't everyone? Lets carry the blame on all our shoulders, and move on. After all, we're all at fault.

Three blind mice, three blind mice, see how fast they run...A much needed eye check is in order. I need emotional (and financial) support from my parents, cos this is not a routine "tell me what letter is at the last row" check, but a "let's see how your eyeball really looks like" general eyecheck. Any recommandations to any good eye clinic? Lasik people, any recommandations? Seriously, I need to go for one before someone freaks out and calls me "devil child" because of my bloodshot eyes. Crud. Heading into November soon. Which means that you can smell exams in the air. I reckon they smell like Pilot pen ink and recycled fullscape paper. And so far, so good. Am keeping abreast of the school work, and like what Hovland/Lewin (seriously FORGOT WHO!) said, one will tend to remember the unfinished assignments. Yes, I remember them. I'm haunted by them. Especially 221, only that it stops short of having Hedwig appear in my dreams and going "where's the lead?" or "what is this?". Leads give me the creeps.

The team won.It wasn't an important game. But it was the way we stood for each other that made it so different. It's once more (with feelings). And then, it was also the first time everyone smiled on court cos we saw the antics on the bench. Got us all high (and mighty). It's a different feeling. It has never felt so good.

I'm not there. When in school, I feel that I'm not there. My mind wonders to a place where there is bright lights, lines, and two backboards. And it's really fine by me. Because I can pull myself back into my reality, where Hovland and his merry gang of Jews rule communication history. Dark clouds can fill my brain up, and I'll let them all drain out the proper way. Only for that few fleeting moments. I can't allow them to engulf me - I'll drown in sorrow if I do. My words need courage. I need boldness. I can't live by my unofficial mantra or else I'll procrastinate to death. Blame it on CS221. In school, call my name. Talk to me. Remember though, I'm simply not there.

This alarm just went off...Went to watch fellow WKWSCI-ian's film screening yesterday. It was called "Silent", made by 4 Year3 seniors and starred Jodi from my year. I believed they were really touched by the support that the school had given them, because so many people turned up. And I'm just wondering, when will my turn come? Film is an explosive medium. It can touch, it can change minds. Yet, it remains personal to the person who creates it. I'm more in awe the more I learn about film. And I just can't wait to create my own...

Finally, I feel that I'm learning things that I want to learn about. In all aspects of life, and in this stage too.

The Artful Dodger (OR how I manage to recycle ONE evening dress for 3 seperate ocassions) The Pictures below are of OCASSION NO. 3. (Used this same dress during the jc proms that I attended in '04/'05) This time, theme was 1920s. I think I looked like the mafia's tai tai and these are my kakis. And Charlie Angels beckons. Finally a shot of me and my pseudo boyfriend, Mr Victor Mah. Now you're asking, why am I so sure he will never ever be my boyfriend. My answer is a simple "COS I HAD TO BEND DOWN TO TAKE THE PICTURE WITH HIM YOU KNOW!" Keywords: "bend" and "down". Oh well, there's always the next life, Victor. (:P)
