i find it strange that i'm able to observe many things on the mrt while reading a book

it just happens that i've had many interesting sightings today.
while i take my time to list them out, why don't you get yourself a chocolate bar from the fridge?




BUT FIRST, LET ME DECLARE 150907 COINCIDENCE DAY

on the mrt, i saw a girl wearing the same shoes as me [the white one from mondo with a ribbon oO],
another girl with the same jacket as me [the white and brown one],
another girl with the same tank as me [same shade of pink x.x].
....and if you think that's not freaky enough, i counted 2 other people in my row [on the mrt] with an ipod nano like mine.

- i came back from dinner just now, and was greeted by the song "i'm lovin' it" by justin timberlake. i was then reminded then to charge my ipod, only to discover that i've not switched it off after returning home 2 hours ago. FREAKY thing was, it was playing "i'm lovin' it" as well, i looked at the timing, it was playing at 2 minutes 31 seconds. i turned to my computer. 2 minutes 29 seconds. tell me, am i being followed by a spirit?


speaking of spirit, i am reminded of the word zeitgeist. it means spirit of the age, and have been told NOT to forget the word since its a wonderful word. we've learnt it during tuition a week ago [ofcourse, nobody knew, and the reactions were "really?" "got learn meh?" and "forget already". expected, ofcourse. i'm included]




yes, onto my "sightings"..

- i saw a gay man talking on the phone, with a tote bag hung on his right shoulder. his voice was like oh-so-gentle, and his shirt was very tight x.x
actually, he sounded abit like mr yao [is that how you spell his name? the one who makes announcements]
i got kinda..irked out so i decided to bite the head off a gummy bear.

- i counted 3 women today who wore tight tops that has a cut so low, i can see half the surface area of their boobs. not intentionally, i'm not a pervert. i just happened to look up while reading and poom, it just appeared before me. weird people...


- i've noticed most women wear sandals or heels, with jeans and a tight top, their bags are kinda gigantic!
girls my age [or up till 21] usually wear jeans and pumps/flats/sneakers with a tunic, tank or just any teeshirt, oh, with hairbands too. i realised we're the only age group that are entitled to wear almost anything.
older ahmas wear flowery tops with loose pants and plastic slippers, their earrings are usually jade or gold, and their hair is curly wurly.

-boys wear practically the same things, caps, watches, slingbags, jeans, pants, tshirts.

- i've noticed a number of extremely tall people that made me sad ):

- i discovered i'm attracted to anybody with big eyes and nice dressing, regardless of gender.

- i got attacted to this dress that belonged to a girl. i'm determined to find it, its not those flowy swishing swashy twirly whirly kinda dress, its those that reach your thigh at mid length, its kinda straight cut and had a collar, a few buttons and a thin belt at the waist. actually it reminded me of military wear, of course it was much prettier. i got attracted by another attire, a stiped polo tee that was amazingly pretty, not a normal polo tee you get from hangtan. it was paired with a white skirt that was mid-thigh length too. very simple dressing but it somehow looked very nice on the girl. maybe she's tall and i'm not.

- i found a girl wearing a tie! ^^

- i have found a reason to agree with what my teacher says, emma has to learn to focus on her tasks at hand. how am i supposed to focus on my book while making so many observations?

- i believe i'm the only person in my row that has a packet of gummy bears [and is addicted to it]




- i got scolded by a man for saying sorry without a smile when his son STOMPED on my shoes with his grey CROCS. hello, my toes are hurting [not laughing, inside joke HAHA] from his stomp and you scold me for saying sorry without a smile D: i'm really sad cause i didn't mean to not smile, but i was feeling down then ):

- i have prove to say i love spending. i MUST buy something [even if just a packet of gummybears or a lollipop] everytime i go out. [even if its after tuition, not a shopping trip]

- i've discovered a MUNCHY DONUT branch at UNITED SQURARE! hurray, i'll buy donuts everyweek from now on (:







digressing, i'm currently attatched to a book called
"without consent" by kathryn fox i borrowed from the library trip with ashley.

i don't think it'll look appealing to you, for the cover is scrawled with bloody fonts and a scapel and blotches of blood everywhere, but it made me realise I DON'T WANT TO BE A LAWYER.

they don't do justice to the world, they accept the wrongdoings of rapers just because the victim does not have enough evidence, and they haven't eaten their lunch and they want to earn money.

not all lawyers are like that, i know. but the one in the book is, thus it gave me a strong urge to blog about it. i was greatly agitated that no justice had been done to the victim, raped while being unconscious from drugs. she woke up naked in a hotel with no recollection of anything. her classmates did that to her, and there the lawyer was, defending them. i'm still agitated! D:




anyway, tuition went fine, the teacher asked sharyn if she's infected yet, by our laziness and unattentiveness i think. i'll agree to the point. i remember being "infected" by my TLL friends back in mrs elizabeth yeo's class. i used to be a girl who handed in all her homework D:



piano was fabulous, i love the way i'm learning about the composers now, if its just a tad bit of information. no more boring exam pieces, no more rigidness in the lessons, now i'm finally free to learn new piece and get to know more composing styles.

i'm learning debussy's reverie [click on link for a nice version of it.] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6LQzBlp93BA&mode=related&search=
the pianist's good. it'll take me 1000000000 years to play like this -.-

and clair de lune, meaning moonlight.

MUST CLICK! its beautiful music for studying hahaha! and the guy who played it looks funny x.x

i've been told debussy's works give you a very special feeling, sorta dreamland-y. its true, for it uses alot of pedals and pentatonic scales and many tie notes. i'm determined to learn these songs, somehow.

bytheway, i was tested on debussy for my g8 aural, when asked on possible composers, i answered debussy AND bartok. hope i don't get deducted for saying bartok, even though its 20th century music, the style i was tested on was obviously debussy's. oh save me. my piano exam is GONE.



but i hope to fail, cause my mummy says i can't retake if i pass.
I DON'T WANT A PASS. but i'm certain i'll get either a just pass/fail for this.
which means, if i want a merit or dist, i'll have to retake AFTER THE O'LEVELS.

i want to retake! D:




i'm being random. I LOVE MY LIMEGREEN PEN! :D




that's all for the day, i can't stand sad things as much as i can't stand studying for tests.

i'm off, i'll be back, and i've stocked up a supply of quiz results for emergency purposes, when i'm out of juice, that is.





bye, my mom's nagging
