i am runing away from reality. haha!
thats because i could choose to turn to the school web site to check out my results for semester two. but i refuse. i cant bare it. i cant stand looking at some disasterous results only to remain stunned, and bring a living nightmare into the realm of dreams, that is if i manage to fight down the depression to go into sleep in the first place. haha!!!
and so, i have come up with the plan to reveal my results tomorrow morning, immediately following which, i shall watch the 137th episode of naruto. and then head for the gym or something of that sort to pound all the iron and angst away! good plan eh? i wonder if that would be sufficient though. may need to like break a few plates or vandalise something to appease all the foreseen frustrations.
surprisingly, i am not feeling all that nervous this time round compared to the last sem. i dont know why. maybe its because i deliberately shelved it in one dark corner of my memory. until today, when i realise that my own results will be released in the afternoon. i am really afraid.
everyone keeps telling me that i will do well, simply becasue they always see me in the law corridor. wow. thats like i am smart simply because i am holding a book. usually i pay no attention to such remarks, because i have to forgive them for their own ignorance, for what they do not know, what they do not see. in that corridor, that i so often frequent. it does not just have a history of academic diligence, it contains many many moments of disruptions, of mini crises, of mosquito bites, of heat waves, of turmoils and emotions. but of course, of wonderful company, of great conversations, of fabulous friends. i am not just a nerd who does nothing but sits and studies. only that not many people can understand me, and nor do they know what has happened in my life. so they tend to make sweeping statements. i dun blame them. cos i do that too! haha! i make generalisations, only to realise that they are not only unwarranted, they are also unjustified, and unfairly uncalled for.
of course, i would wish that all the effort that i have put in the last semester will pay off in the form of some decent grades. only God knows, and i want to believe, that i will get what i deserved.
in any case. for those who already got their results so far, i hope they can be satisfied with it, and map out the plans, where they will have to keep moving from where they stand. and when i get mine own, i will do that too.
argh! its like 9 days since the interview for the teaching job. i have almost given up hope. time to turn to the classifieds for a job. if not, i will have to turn to the horrible banqueting that gm and the rest have so terribly described! ew. ew. ew.
after todays training, gm, alex and i went to dhoby ghaut for lunch. ate at subway and had some rochor road tau hui. wow. i love it. its really smooth and sweet. so unlike anything i have eaten. definitely better than the schools. but the portions are small. still worth the money i should say.
after that, we went to my favourite leisure spot! the snookerium at paradiz! woo hoo! i.e. we played pool. actually, its was gm and i who played pool, while an exhausted, tired, aching alex slouched in one corner and promptly and amazingly fell asleep. he had work in the evening. what i thought was remarkable was that in such a noisy, loud and uncomfortable place like a pool parlour, alex still managed to sleep quite soundly, with his mushroom hair drooping over to cover his face. haha!
and so, gm and i had a show down! muahaha!!! had been wanting to find a competitor for such a long time! someone to qie. someone of a higher standard than me. but not that high. someone i hope to manage to beat! zaixiang is one of them. someone i would want to play seriously against and hope to beat soundly! zx, you better watch out! haha!!! anyway, so gm and i played. it was fine. we played six rounds. i told him that he played really well. in that one round when we wagered a drink, he played super well, and potted the black ball with 4 of my own still on the table. but i still beat him in 4 games. ah well. haha! hope to play more soon! maybe i will be as crazy as the period after ns. play everyday... wah... those were the days man....
now, i am broke. must watch my expenses. haha!!!
okay, time to go and sleep. tomorrow, i foresee, will be one hell of a day!
