Chinese Os are TOMORROW! To the people reading this today, GO AND REST YOUR EYES NOW!


this is the chinese. *has violent urges to puke*

Technically I should be taking the same advice, but Mendelssohn is making me really sleepy with his aria. (Go listen to symphony 92.4. You'll emerge a changed person after that. The Philharmonic Orchestra just makes me want to forget about academics, pick up my violin and practice until I become a virtuoso/ violin prodigy and perform in the orchestra with worldwide acclaim.) Unfortunately, I have big dreams which will stay just as they are- just dreams.

Anyway, there are a gabillion things I want to say here, but due to severe time constraints (it's time for my mid-morning nap :D), I shall cut cut cut.

Firstly, reading the newspapers in the morning, and surprise surprise! Steph and Amanda were featured in the papers.. Congrats to amanda!

Here are the pictures from our last chinese class 2005, and hopefully in my life..


This is lu lao shi! He's one of my fav. chinese tchers.. I couldn't take very good pictures of him cos laoshi's camera shy!


we bought macs breakfast for him! hahaha my chi. class rocks.


the breakfast..




sher playing with the happy meal toy! You will never have guessed that Os was 3 days away lol..


this is soomeh's warped SNOOPY toy. I don't know, but "poonsy" just sounds very very wrong.


sher's pancakes. yummy.


rnng (:


you would think van was studying how to be a rocket scientist, rather than looking at sher cutting pancakes ;)


sherlyn can seriously butter pancakes until it's more like butter with a taste of pancake rather than butter on pancakes lol.

My last chinese mugging session 2005
Mugging (or trying very hard to mug) was really fun with huannie, pet, rnng and eleanor! Man, you guys seriously brighten up this otherwise dull and extremely painful subject.

We were at subway trying to speak in mandarin, and of course to study for Os. Can't say we succeeded much, but hey, when it comes to spending time with friends, or rushing home to mug mug mug, I always stand by the obvious choice. Years from now, am I going to remember my last school day rushing home to pour my heart out on the shou ce (I refuse to say "my shou ce", because I refuse ownership of that otherwise untouched book), or drinking diluted coffee and eating oatmeal cookies with friends? But then again, that's just my opinion..

And by the way, I think I can find many many people who enjoy subway's oatmeal cookies too! Huannie, I am not weird..


see? intense concentration here..


i rest my case!



To anyone reading this before your paper tomorrow, here's wishing you all the best (:

ok.. nap time..
