hello, old friend. 4:52 AM

"maybe one day I'll get smart and learn from my mistakes"
---

Damn. Blogger. Interface. 

Tonight. will be study night (or so I try to convince myself). I've got a box of O's in front of me and I'm picking out the ones that're stuck together cuz I only eat those. My Mum's always complaining that I'll drive my husband up the wall because he won't be able to afford to feed me cuz I'm too picky an eater; but I say I'll forge my own living, thanks, and I'll put my bread and my own stuck-together-O's on the table before I become anyone's charity case.

So Monday's started out pretty okay. 
Dr Lim wants Lisa and I to enter the UNIFEM 2009 essay writing competition. The theme for this year? ..."A New Land; A New Life." 
Hmm. That shouldn't be too hard to do...
Study seshed with the DWLs today. We will make good yet!! Amrit and I plugged into my iPod and listened to Tom Jones, Frank Sinatra, and Peggy Lee until my battery ran out. There's just SOMETHING about songs from the I Love Lucy Era. I swear- you can't not be happy while listening to them. Even if we've got grey instead of glitz, and Mathematics instead of Monroe.

So yeah. 
Things aren't so bad. 
We'll be okay. 
...Dreams do come true!!

(ask me again on Friday.)

Lately, though, I've been feeling a little disillusioned. I know Lisa goes through cycles like that, too. 
Maybe it's a Lit Kid thing. Maybe we overanalyze and nonchalant-isize and get caught up and then pull away far too easily. Leave them either completely oblivious or struggling to understand. 
Because we're paradoxes like that. 
..Sometimes I get so tired trying to keep up with me.


Joe and I were googling Chinese subtitles/roadsigns gone wrong, last night. To quote him- how can one race be so hilarious?! Screw British humour; Asian humour's where it's at...and we don't even realize we're being funny. 

"Fatty, your thick face is hurting my instep."
"Normal people don't steal pituitaries."
"I have more knive's wound than your leg's hair!"
"You always use violence. I should have ordered glutinous rice chicken."

God bless China's...original subtitling. 
Which other nation could singlehandedly change the entire course of the Power Rangers storyline? (refer to below)

"Keep up with me, big black man, and we will go town to kick the motherf-cking lizard man with our karate feets!!"

...Ohh yeah. Asian; and proud to be.
