the girlfriend has gone off to Australia and won’t be back for a week =( somehow I feel very lonely without her somewhere near me.
END OF EXAMS!!
3 college roommates: engineer, physicist, mathematician.
Fire starts in dorm room, and the engineer wakes up, looks at the fire, grabs the trash can, fills it with water, puts out the fire, and fills it up with water again just in case. Goes back to sleep.
Fire starts again, physicist wakes up, looks at the full can of water. Baffled, dumps water out in sink, examines fire, trash can, and sink. After approximate calculations of combustion, heat capacity, and rates of oxidation, fills can with water, throws water on fire, leaves can empty. Goes back to sleep.
Fire starts again, mathematician wakes up, rolls over and looks at the fire, sink, and empty can. Thinks, “A solution to the problem exists,” and goes back to sleep.

Why the fuck are there so many fires in one night?!
Currently Listening To: Lovers are Losing – Keane
Of nearness to her sundered Things
The Soul has special times —
When Dimness — looks the Oddity —
Distinctness — easy — seems —
The Shapes we buried, dwell about,
Familiar, in the Rooms —
Untarnished by the Sepulchre,
The Mouldering Playmate comes —
In just the Jacket that he wore —
Long buttoned in the Mold
Since we — old mornings, Children — played —
Divided — by a world —
The Grave yields back her Robberies —
The Years, our pilfered Things —
Bright Knots of Apparitions
Salute us, with their wings —
As we — it were — that perished —
Themself — had just remained till we rejoin them —
And ’twas they, and not ourself
That mourned.

Those glorious days long past.
Life isn’t fair. Especially when someone who plagiarized your work got a higher grade than you for it. Whatever it is, move on, move on. My life in its entirety has been quite screwed up most of the time anyway.
It is my privilege to suffer this alone. Hah.

Its never understandable until you’ve experienced it yourself.

Exams should be outlawed. The stress us students make us cram and have nervous attacks and just basically kill brain cells to memorize information they would forget 1 month after the exam. What for?! It has been awhile since I really sat down to read novels after novels and even out of army I’ve neglected to read seriously other than finishing Sherlock Holmes, as well as Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman. I’ve yet to even touch Catch 22 which I bought a few months back, and I’m looking forward to reading it once the exams are over.

Not for the last time, I wish I had a genius level of intelligence and a photographic memory.
And with the stress of the upcoming exams, the gf found a valuable article on this website which echoes deeply with all couples around the world. On a separate note, I wish I was a sponge that soaks up all academia instantly and hold it inside till the examinations where I can then squeeze myself and all the information would come flowing out.

If you pick me a flower, I’ll wear it in my hair. I’ll stash little notes for you where you least expect them. I don’t have many firsts left.. but I’d like someone who I could offer all of my lasts. We’ll make history together. I’ll wait for you even if you’re late – and I won’t complain about it. Kindness to cashiers, valets, waiters and maddeningly slow postal clerks who would try the patience of Gandhi is a must. I will feel safe and most at peace in your arms. When you’re counting aloud, I will try and mess you up. I find you magically delicious. I will let you be right when it doesn’t really matter. I’ll giggle when you show off and I know it’s just for me. I’ll hold your coffee while you drive. I can build a fire without burning the house down. If you wash the car with me – I promise to wear a white t-shirt for you. I‘ll hide around corners and try to scare you in the middle of the night.. of course, I’ll end up scaring myself and you’ll have to calm me down. I can change a flat tire and my own oil. It’s the simple things you do that make me swoon the most. I love it when you sing to me. I’ll make you mickey mouse pancakes. Sleeping in has a whole new meaning now that we’re doing it together. I’ll cover you up and kiss your forehead when you fall asleep watching tv. I won’t swear around your family or make you wear silly sweaters at my family’s during Christmas. I’ll grant you three wishes. I’ll make you laugh. I’ll stare in wonder with you at that hot chick with the great rack. I will marvel at your strength. I’ll take care of you when you’re sick. I give a kick ass massage. I think it’s hot when you come home all dirty from playing or working hard. My heart will skip every time you walk through the door. My kisses will take your breath away – seriously. I’ll giggle if you leave your socks on in bed. My quirks and oddities have been deemed ‘adorable’ and I will love you more everyday for all of yours. I’ll hold you when you need it. I will give you space when you need it. I will let you be you. You’ll sleep better when I’m next to you. I’ll thank you every time you open a door for me. I’ll never give you shit in front of your friends. I won’t ever let you leave for work in the morning without your lunch and a passionate kiss. We can watch your movie first. I’ll clean the house perfectly every time your mom comes by. I like horror movies only when you’re with me and only as long as you hold me close. I don’t litter. I love when you pull me down to sit on your lap. I love it when you lay your head on my chest in bed. I can be ready (shower and all) in half an hour. I’ll look cute as hell in your shirt in the morning. I can balance a checkbook. I can never turn down a challenge. I’ll fit perfectly in your arms. I’ll understand if you get jealous – and do my best to show you that you have no reason. Hand-written love notes will get you laid every time. I can totally keep a secret. I’m pretty damn funny and will do anything to make you laugh. You will always look hot to me in the morning. I think it’s cute when you eat off my plate. When you’re sleeping, I’ll try to stay quiet. I’ll call when I say I will. Treat me like a woamn and I’ll treat you like a man. To clarify: I’m not looking for a savior, a fix-up project, or anything of that sort. I’m looking for a man who quite simply adds something extraordinary and special to my life. And I to him. A fair exchange, an amazing mind, body and soul connection and a place to build something magnificent.
Because I know you’re upset, and I am too, and ultimately it has progressed even beyond our ability to do much about anything other than wait.
And pray.
Mediocrity

Being in the middle of the pack gives no room for slacking up, for the only way is up. If I go down it’ll be all over. There’s no such thing as looking at the bright side when you’re struck down to rock bottom, because in this case being at the rock bottom is not an option. I wouldn’t know how else to deal with mere dismal results, except for just sucking it up, clenching my teeth and struggling on.
On an uneven playing field, what would you do the level the odds in your favour?

Thunderstorms and lightnings with cold wind is nice, but not when it’ll wet my wound thus making it more difficult for me to walk.
On hindsight, it’ll be nice to have a good pair of speakers to give me my quality music, but sigh, I just don’t have the money to invest in one. And it’s not really like I’m listening to a lot of music nowadays. Surprising how academia just takes up so much of your time (life).

I’m just average. So so. Alright la.
