in this world,


i think novak djokovic looks soooooooo charming when he smiles. i can't stand that hair of his though, he should really learn how to style it. but i still adore him and i hope he wins the australia open (though with that idiot federer around, i highly doubt he will stand a chance).

anyway, its' five days into the new year and i still can't get used to the bloody expensive adult fares. of course, the government (if they are reading this) will probably point out to me that singapore's transport fare is amongst the cheapest in the entire world but i hate the government and i won't listen to a word they say, so there. besides, i am sure there's a perfectly good reason why other countries' transport fares are more expensive than us. like, maybe their country is bigger so the distance between stops are longer? and so, they have higher costs? but, of course, i'm just utilising my imagination. haha.

actually, i also can't really get used to the fact that as of 2008, i am no longer a student. i'm not complaining, really. it's nice not being a student. i get to wake up at noon everyday, there is no homework and i remember things like, "a transition element is a d-block element which can form one or more ions with incompletely filled d orbitals" for fun (and to show-off, haha!) and not because i have to.

but i can't help but just miss schooldays a teeny-weeny bit. those days spent laughing and giggling and bitching and talking with my fellow schoolmates. and it's kind of sad that those days have come to an end. the boys are going botak (and bringing back with them endless army stories) and the girls are busy working (or finding jobs, damn it!) and any chance of a reunion seems remote in the near future. and since i really suck at keeping contact, i can't help but feel, well, sad. that the last 2 years may just be it and we'll never be as close as we once were. oh, well. sighhh.


nothing is certain but death and taxes.
