Uncover Folly

Pack LOADS of Cocaine, Bupivacaine and Lidocaine into a FIGANTIC bag and perform a INTRAVENOUS route of adminstration into me.

As, Bs, Cs and Hopefully no Ds

Hmm.... I am bored... Just went out with family for a vegetarian meal. Oh my.. I need meat man....

Half the day is gone after lunch. Supposed to go climbing. Argh.

Hmm.. Working at the telesurveyor thingy is not too bad. Flexible working time. Ok pay. BUT... it is rather boring and your throat suffers...

I am coupled this job with a couple of others. CA instructor..... Bert's convention.. Brian's virtual machine and what not....

I am officially 24 now. Updates of my birthday is abit laggy.

16th May was spent at Pumpfest with the team. Didn't do well considering how much I have slacked before the competition. But it was alright I guess. At least I had the team with me there to celebrate my birthday.

Thank you Doris for the card. Thank you Reg and Gerry for organising the pleasant surprise. Thank you ZX for the bubble tea. And thanks to the team for the nice levi's top.

And of cos... to my clique. thankS for the dragon pants man. FNICE.. =)))))

My FYP prof is requesting to meet me soon. And I am going to attend an animal handling course soon. Oh my....

It is the Year 4 syndrome man.

Not so smooth

What a time to be injured.

Saturday is Pumpfest and I have a strained or sprained ( Don't know which) left wrist.

Cannot do push ups.

Cannot load much.

Sharp pain at certain angles.

GG

and the clinical trial thingy. Seems to be unsafe.

Dilemma.

When my birthday is coming.

Bipolar Depression

Bipolar Depression- Alternating periods of depression and mania

Hmm.... Thats kinda what I am experiencing from time to time. Not too extreme. But I am experiencing slight symptoms.

Fly kite

Preparing for thursday's pharmacology paper. Hmm... Right now I am in the depressive stage. Watch out for the mania phase.

Piece of @!$@#%@#$^@$#^@$

What a dreamer.

Alritey. Finally some free time and inspiration to do an update.

Let's see... This semester's exams seem to be gone in a flash. Never really mug alot. But somehow the time just passed Fuper FFast. So... how were the papers...

• LSM 3213 Molecular and Cellular Neurobiology - Hopefully the 60% paper will be able to pull up my under par CA. Should be ok.
  


• SC1101E Making NO sense of Society- Gone. GG
  


• LSM 3251- Ecology and Environmental Processes - Should be fine. 40% paper. 30MCQs and 2 essays. Should be ok.

So... now I am on left with 7days and a paper. LSM 3221- Human Pharmacology. Need to score this man. Otherwise... My Cap.......Fdropped.

Hmm.. All the late nights... Lead to a damaged face. damn it.. stupid yixiong saw me and was like as if I am disfigured la.... I need help. Like can some pro girls bring me go see some skin consultant. like seriously.

Ok. And today I went climbing. IT WAS LIKE FACKED! LIKE SERIOUSLY PACKED. all the jc kids. oh well. Michelle's first climb after numerous years. But I wasn't a good host la... too engrossed with my own climbing and Matthew's nice routes. haHaa. All the studying really brought down my climbing a little. The technique and stuff still there.. but the stamina ah.. oh my. I kinda exerted too fast too furious? And i felt like puking. Maybe overcrowding led to low oxygen level....hMm... Hopefully will be in time for Pumpfest.... 16th MAY! ; )

and..... I saw this nice pair of climbing pants.......Dragon Climber. I like. It's those kind convertible between berms and pants. Cool stuff. Hai. no money. The pants will be handy for europe's grad trip... Which brings me to the next point....

Saw Kelly Khiew at CA. So was just talking to her.. Then I decided to ask her about her trip to Europe in preparation for my own trip next year ( I know its still some time away.. But its always good to look forward to something). So she was telling me about accomodations and stuff in SPAIN. SO looking forward to it. Yixiang and I need some YING spirit. If you are eligible to join us (like Zhaoxiu) please apply via godspeed07@gmail.com or vitaminx75@hotmail.com. Thanks!
We are being ambitious. 2months max- SPAIN, ITALY, FRANCE and UK.

Ok... I talked alot for one post. Could have been more. But I summarized quite abit.

Some random pictures....

If you scroll to the post exactly around this time last year. you will see exactly the same thing. According to SHU, redbull makes you FFAT.

A Mushroom cloud. Or... with abit more imagination...... a turtle! can visualise?

Say it with Music

I NEED TO DECLARE THIS....

I don't know since when.......BUT... I put on BLOODY 3KG of FATS? MUSCLES?

wth....Must be all the non stop eating while mugging.

This is what I eat each day as I study.

• 1 chocolate ice cream.


• One packet of economic rice with alot of meat.


• One packet of milo


• Alot of chocolate ( bOOSt, Hershey blah blah blah)


• Alot of Kueh


• Chips..

ARGH.......... SYF = Single, Young, FUNNY FAT (no wonder my knees have been giving me so much problem these days when I run)

Oh well. Time to cut down on all this rubbish. Alritey. Oh YA. Which reminds me... I went for Supper on Saturday aannnnd..... MONDAY.. alot of damage done.

Crowne Plaza

Hmm.. so much for tonight. Studying neurology is not easy.... seriously.

And I have sorted of confirmed my FYP Project. IF nothing goes wrong, I will be doing something along this line..

Effects of TCM on Diabetics rats ---> Anti-diabetics screening

Hopes this is fun. One thing off my mind.. Thanks for the advise in making this decision.

Hmm.... I feel weird. Need to say it out.. but how.

Hmm... So little time left.... I wish I know.

Defining right and wrong

I hate studying for arts module. Open book exams. read Read REad READ... just keep reading and reading. damn it. Pissed. I hate reading. SERIOUSLY.

Ok.. Here's what I have learnt from the FAMILY SOCIOLOGY LECTURE...

4Factors to MATE SELECTION

1. Pure romantic love
   
2. Marriage resources (economic and cultural capital)---> This is the assets in term of financial assets, status, values, tastes and knowledge that we bring to the marriage market to attract mates and compete against rivals.
   
3. Third parties ---> A marriage between people from 2different groups may threaten the internal cohesion of one or both groups. As such, whom we fall in love with and choose to marry is determined partly by the influence of these third parties.
   
4. Demograhic (propinquity)---> Whome we fall in love with and choose to marry is determined partly by the size, geographical disperon and sex ratio of the groups we belong to and the social composition of the local marriage markets we frequent.

Factor 2+3+4 will give us the degree of endogamy (marrying within a group).

As a result of the operation of these three sets of social forces, the process of falling in love and choosing a mate is far from random. Social forces constrain our choices to varying degrees...

Understand what I am writing? You must read the full text to understand. The gist is... it is rare that our choice is governed just by pure romantic love.

Ok. I am just being naggy. Hmm.... Having time alone these days really set me thinking. As the semester draws to a close, I reflected on my past decisions... Every single one of them. Do they actually make sense? I am not sure myself. I think I have changed. Changed to a person whom I dont really understand myself. Hmm.... Its just weird sometimes when you look behind into time, and realise all the folly I have committed.

Anyway.. I emailed DSO.. got a negative reply. Means I cannot do my FYP with them anymore. Trying to locate more Profs now... hopefully something related to sports..... or exercise performance I hope....

I cant concentrate now.

I leave you with a song yet again.. old school... but same effect

Ask for it. And you shall not get it

Hmm.... So much have been happening. So much as that I no longer know where I am heading.

mostly school work. Kinda screw up this semester. We shall see....

No nice photos this time round. No time to take. No mood to take.

I just want to get over this semester and everything else.

I am growing white hair at the speed of light. Almost. I just don't know what to say. Wheeeeeeeeeeeee.............

If only. Till then.

Walk in the rain :: Rain in the walk

Thursday night.... Simple and talkactive dinner at Marche. Button mushrooms... =)

The talkactive night continued... staring up the sky. lying on an open field. Watching formations of clouds floated past. And as usual, the night was filled with stupid dares. Rain took over the night and it was time for home...

Friday is free day. Free day was spent sending my Laptop to the doctor to get the fan and keyboard replaced. I waited 1week plus for the spare parts to arrive. Sent my Laptop in at 1pm. Lady told me she will call me by 7pm to collect it back. Which means I had 6hours to kill.

Went Art friend to check out Vanguard. Went library to read CLIMBER magazine. Too cold. Took some random shots.




And I went into the Mac besides Bra Brasah to get a hot fudge sundae. Sitting besides the glass window, I looked across and I saw this sign - MINT TOY MUSEUM. I finished my ice cream and jaywalked my way to the museum. Admission fee $15. I walked out. Walked over to Raffles Hotel and explored the interior a little bit. Came across this nice ice cream place. Shall try it one day. Wanna come along? Once again, took a few random shots..

Wandered my way to the National Musuem. But I was intercepted by the Peranakan Museum. Detour (since it's free for NUS students). More photos..... from both musuem....

Hmmm... today was spent entirely by myself. I hardly have time for myself. Quite glad that I managed to walk around alone today. Spent alot of time thinking...about everything. And... i discovered alot of new places that I never knew existed. It's quite cool. Walking alone. Looking like tourist. Just going where my legs and instinct tells me to. Aimlessly. Hmm... just aimlessly.... till the time is up.



I leave you with a song that I really like?

sometimes, it is just not funny. And there is a limit. I am just being nice.

Spilled M&Ms

Hmm... Hell week is finally over. Wheeee..... FINALLY! time to have a short break before i work on more assignments.

Boulderactive was great. Feeling the post event syndrome. The emptiness I feel every year. Lazy to post the pictures. So many. Don't know which to choose to post here. Refer to Facebook.

I realised my Black Diamond bag has a cut on the bottom. ARGH......

I feel weird these days. I don't know why. I seem to be living in my own Wonderland. If sure if it is real or is it a dream? Delusion or reality. Maybe it is just denial.

My pimples are getting worse. I don't know why. Maybe its all the stress and all the problems I have been going through.

Shed me some light.

Will be back soon. Recently my posts consist of all words. Cos there isn't any concrete photo to reflect my mood recently. Stay tuned thou.

Good night all.

R.&.S Sleepyhead.

I am physically and mentally burnt out. Seriously tired.

Myasthenia gravis- fluctuating muscle weakness.

I think I am suffering from this disorder. In particular, to the eyelids.........

Tiring and stressful as it may be... These few days had been fulfiling, new and unique.

Boulderactive is here.

It's all just random.

5 to 6

Finally finished my 1200 words essay. To an Arts Student, 1200words is Feasy. But....


I am a Science student who only know how to write scientific lab report. Ok. Shall not be whiney.

ANWAY......busy busy week ahead. Just finished Gravical last week. Hence 5 to 6. If you know what i mean. Oh well..... Doesn't matter since I fulfiled my target for this competition. Yup. Thanks to all those with their Powerful DSLRs, namely Yixiang and Daryl. Thanks to those who video-ed my climbs.

Congrats to Jenny for clearing the long dusty dirty road of OPEN climbing! wOooohOoooooo!

And to the rest... like Zx said... we are all in the same banana boat.

how apt.....


And so I hve been enjoying Climbing these few weeks. Disappointment yes. But its ok! Just enjoy climbing. (Jups. 2008) The sport that hurts me the most. Literally and figuratively.

I have one neuro test on Friday 20th March. One pharmaco test on 25th March. One SDL essay due 31st March. and the rest of the semester should tone down a little. Hell Week ahead. And BOULDERACTIVE IS THIS WEEKEND! I hate to miss any parts and events for boulderactive. For the past few years, I have never missed any events. Usually I will not have any class on friday. BUT.. this year... i got test... sadly... so i got to miss a few events.. oh well... what to doo.... hmmm... plus i usually set at least one route for the competition. But this year, I simply cant afford any time to spare. Feel guilty. But i will contribute somehow. See if i can squeeze in some time to head down to do abit of route testing and maybe help out with a bit (little bit) of route setting. I want to set.. seriously......but............oh well... STop whining planet....

ok. Go study now. SEeya....

The strength.

Ugly haircut....


Wrong Singlet cutting....


Pressurizing datelines....


Shoulder strains....


Locating FYP profs.....


High climbing expectations....


It is the weakness within.



Just move along.......with each passing day......

Symbolic Interaction

Hmmm.... have a couple of photos that I have yet to post....

Rainbow one week ahead. I saw this in Tampines. Yixiang saw it in school Did we see the same rainbow?

Tea time at Fosters. Some English Rose restuarant. Peppermint tea that is so refreshing. Tasted just like Wrigley's chewing gum. Nicee..................Scones were good.

This is the FFFern that I have been working on for my Ecology Lab. Vittaria ensiformis (italise the scientific name, otherwise you will be penalised). common name: Shoestring fern. 5pages of report = 60% of my total grade. Madness...

I just finished preparing for a mini presentation for "Making Sense of Society".

The Conflict Theory:

Privileged Class Versus the Less Privileged Class. The privileged class will try to maintain its advantage while the subordinate class will struggle to increase their status.

Gravical is this weekend. Somehow the competition feeling is missing. Maybe it is not so exciting for me anymore. Come to think about it. This is potential the last competition season that I might go through, considering yr4 might be busy and what not.


Hmm......... Something to think about...........................................

I just emailed on Prof regarding FYP. Following the trend. Life Science majors are kind of....................................

Falling like Ragdoll

Mynahs come in pairs.

Hmm... Einstein test was quite a killer. But... I shall believe in the power of moderation. =) Usually my CAP will drop during Sem 2. Seems like it is going to head towards the same fate again for this sem.

Lets see.. Time passed so quickly that I cant seem to remember what I did the past few days....

Last friday was spent with Zhaoxiu, Yixiang (BF =best friend, not boyfriend), Shaoting, HH and JH at island creamery, Keppel Island and Henderson Waves. Random photos. A few of the nicer photos.

Spent the night at Yixiang's. First time I slept so well at his place man. Thanks to Zx for her spare blanket and the mattress and the cannot make it pillow. muahaha.

Saturday was mock comp day. Shall not talk too much about it. Hmm. The usual la.... you know what I mean. Hmm. kind of used to it. Yeah. Quoting what Jups said... "Don't forget to have fun while climbing." Somehow, I seem to forget the fun element in climbing. Getting tired... Hmm.....

Oh and saturday was yixiang's birthday. Zhaoxiu, BF and myself spent the saturday night at Changi village. Ayam Penyet + $1 ice cream by the sea, watching the planes flew past above our heads. Qantas has the fattest fuselage ( pronounced as FHUGE SER LARGE or somewhere along that line). AND it is the loudest. haHaha. just in time to wish my buddy Happy 24th. Bark Cafe is quite a nice place to chill out.

Sunday...... What did we do........ Sentosa. Rain. Shopping. Mahjong. Supper @ Simpang.

Lady Luck

That's all for now man... Tired.

TONNES OF ASSIGNMENTS.... TONNES TONNES.. ARGHZZZZ

Could have been better.

Sometimes... doing your best just ain't enough.

What do you do then?

Just be happy. Have no expectation. And don't hope for anything in return.

thats what it should be all about.

Godspeed.
