I am constantly being reminded that it's been long since I have a decent post. Of decent emotions and decent length. So today, on a lazy afternoon(morning to me cause I just woke up), I'm set to type something decent. Haha.
This is the recess week. While it meant more studying for some of my peers, I have been leisurely wasting the days away. Not that I want to procrastinate, I am fine actually, slacking the hours away. 3 mid term tests before the recess week itself, and that's 3 tests gone(and i hope not counting). Seriously, last week was spent burying myself in the thick thick biomolecular textbook which smell suspiciously like maggie mee. But that aside, i am very excited about this module after recess week because *ahem* HE is lecturing us already. Cheers! heheheh.
Oh did I tell you I watched the king and the clown vcd alr? With a very funny silin and emmiline in my hall some time last week(or last last week i cant recall). The film is not very easy to comprehend, but neither was it hard to understand the message. Basically the cause of all troubles was this veryyy pretty boy(girl?), Lee Joon Ki. Seriously, he is really veryyy pretty! I think if I am a guy I would also fall in love with him. Hahah. Then because he was pretty, alot of Chi Ko Peks(perverted old men) keep wanting to hit on him. His very protective boyfriend kept protecting and was defeated when the king set his eyes on him. So things got complicated, but eventually the two left the palace after professing their love for each other in front of the king. Sad story actually. Love is a source of strength but it is also an instrument to inflict pain.
So that korean show aside, I caught The Banquet last weekend with nicky and my irritating younger brother(HAHA). The show is... I don't know how to say? The cinematography and everything else was very nice and very grand. I like the setting of the whole story, the costumes were mesmerizing too. Plus Daniel Wu was very cute. However the plot left me a bit furious because after all the fighting and efforts, the 6 main characters all died in the end. And some really died of very stupid reasons. It was gory, the film. With the delibrate effort of showing the splattering pattern of the blood of the victims. Why such effort, I don't understand. Nick was really yawning throughout the show, I tried hard to engage myself too. Haha. Then again if you are a daniel wu fan, go ahead and catch the flick. He is a (weak)prince in the show. Heheh.
Yesterday was van's farewell.
I hate farewell. I remember having to send charlene off and I cried which was such an embarrassment. Now it's van, off to York, really dreaded the coming of yesterday. The team made a calender, plastered with all our happy photos. From year 1 to year 2 to this year all our team outings. She cried when she got the present. Then they also made a clock and pasted all of our faces at the parts where the numbers are supposed to be. i was at number 7 (: hahah. van is at 12. it was sothat the 11 of us will always be behind her. i like the symbolic thing. i hope the clock works somehow. they were like making van read the time off OUR clock in OUR time, which she went something like 'oohh okay the time now is huiying: rachel with peishan at the second hand' hahahahs. damn cute i tell you.
we had a very expensive dinner at sakae. we took the special room so have to spend like $200 in order not to pay $20 more for the room. So we ordered like mad and the first time we wanted to foot the bill, the bill was only $140 plus, so we ordered like alot more and i was really damn full. then mich took out the mooncakes and we celebrated ps, jas and mindy birthday. then the madwoman mindy suddenly commented to me that 'last year we celebrated our birthday at manhanttan! so fast one year already.'. And it occur to me, yeah, it has been a year ALREADY. sigh. happy times pass too quickly, it was so hard to hold on to them.
Soon it was time for her to leave. we were a abit emotional. took tons of photos, lotsa hugs and well wishes. Her sisters cried so badly! Feel sad for them. sigh, the things you left behind.
