Oh wells...
________________________________________________________________
Tough night man. What did i do to deserve this?! Glad it's over. It was a horrible sight to bear.
Yesterday was the officially last day of school for me at USC. It was kinda sad as i went for my last class. The tutor actually bought us pizzas and sodas and we were all eating and drinking in class. And every professor somewhat thanked their classes for the semester, and wished us luck. BUt for exchange students like me, i think the last day of school meant so much more. Alot of my classmates were just relieved that it was the last day of class, but for me, i kinda liked it, but i know i'll be missing usc so damn much when i get back to ntu. And so, went for dinner in a heavy mood and bumped into the guys at the cafe. Ended up having a big dinner with a whole bunch of guys instead of a small quiet dinner among the three of us.
Decided to go study with M at the library after dinner. By the time we got there, it was like 10pm, and we finally settled down and got into the studying mood when there suddenly came a whole bunch of ppl screaming outside the library. Haha. Went out to see and they were actually having a "last day of class" party. The students here can really come up with all sorts of parties man. This party was to celebrate the last day of class, and people basically went around foutains in the school, jumping in, and out of them, swimming, drinking, smoking, making out. haha. Pretty hilarious to watch till i got splashed and this guy actually offered me weed. Hoho. Me and m kindly declined and went back to the lib. Somehow couldnt really study after the party, and decided to head for supper at 2am. Finally got home at 4 and slept at 430.
Wheez.
Today's been an equally long day, just that it did not involve any sense of studying at all. Went to a huge theme park, magic moutain. ANd got on pretty darn cool scary rides! Not bad not bad. Think i got braver! Went on all the scary rides!
ALright, gonna go sleep now, finals are next week and there's just so damn much on my mind. Pray for me people. Miss u all.

It's gonna be a work week..
________________________________________________________________
Woaho! Guess what, i missed my morning class again. Bad bad bad. Barely had 3 hours of sleep on saturday, before having to wake up for church in the morning. After church, pia home for half an hour of sleep and then we went horseback riding.
Wah horse riding is pretty fun. Other than the fact that they gave me a HUGE horse which is SUPER slow. Haha. And while every other horse has a nice long tail, my horse, Bark, has a short and stubby looking one. He's pretty cute actually, 18 years of age, one of the oldest horses but very gentle. Maybe that's because he's too old to be rough? And he kept looking out for this other horse, Sally. Me and L suspected that they are dating. haha. So cute.
Anyways, my ass, my inner thigh and my ankle now hurts so bad. Aching all over. We were on the horse for three hours, 1.5 hours going up the moutain, whereby we got a gorgeous view of LA, and we had a nice mexican dinner at the moutain top. After which, another 1.5 hours down the moutain. Pretty fun, but so darn tiring too, cause we gotta keep kicking the horses to make them go faster. And we kick till our ankles hurt. And when the horse finally gallops, the motion of bobbing up and down makes our butt hurts. So overall, its OOuchOoUCH!
Anyways, next week is finals! Really gotta start studying already. For once in my life, i haven started at least flipping through some text books for my exams which is gonna be next week! And oh yah, this is the last week of school. So sad. One more week and thats it, byebye USC. Gonna miss the school system here, gonna miss the enthusiasm of the students. Gonna miss rushing for class from gym. Gonna miss everything. Haiya..why must all good things come to an end?!

It's 4.14am now, and i have church tmr at 9. Just got home from a day of soccer and slack. The singapore soccer sch team somehow won the cup. I have no idea how, but they did. We all thought we'll get kicked out at like the first round, but then something weird kinda happened and the team just soared through every match. Haha. Since when were singaporeans good at soccer?! But oh wells. I am glad they won.

It's hard to be mature sometimes. In your thoughts, in your actions, because you know that everything you do, God is watching and looking at us. And when irrationality comes over you, sometimes you just dont want to care about the consequences that seem so far away. I've always been like that, but i am trying to change.
We had a long talk last night, and we decided to keep our distance. I initiated the conversation after caregroup last night. During worship, it all came clear. He spoke to me, and i just somehow knew what was the right thing to do. But the right thing, usually isnt the thing we want to do. And the right thing, sometimes, is hard to do. And so, after talking to him, we promised each other that we are going to try our best to have a good healthy friendship.
It's not going to be easy. I missed you alot today. It feels horrible inside. There's this part of me, that you already own. There's this part of me, that loves you for who you are. You are great. I've never known anyone so giving, anyone so patient, anyone so kind. Thank you for everything you've ever done for me. Thank you. That's all i can say.
I will praise the lord at ALL times. My strength is in the heart of the lord.

Direction?
________________________________________________________________
Ah DUi! I overslept today, woke up at like 910, decided it was too late for my 930 class, and so i went back to sleep. Set my alarm for 11.50, and ended up waking up at 1230pm. Damn gross lar, i think this is one of the very very rare times which i actually got to sleep till this late eversince i got here.
XY just told me that she got an internship over at one of the school papers here yesterday, and i heard from ame that many others from my school back home got internships with ST and such. And that really freaked me out. I have nothing to show for on my resume! I haven even applied for anything...i am so freaking lazy. Am even too lazy to write for chron. So i promised myself that next sem will be different. I will work my damn hardest and write for everything possible. But now, lets just pray that i will be able to get journ as my major. Pray for me please..if i dont, thats it man, i dont bloody know what i'm gonna do in life.
I have this friend over here in USC, we spent one hour on the paddle boat the other day when we went to the beach. And she told me that i made her feel really bad during the one hour. Her exact words were, " You made me feel like shit." Why? Cause i told her she has no direction in life. Perhaps i am on the same boat with her now eh? She's been here for 1.5 yrs, spent tens of thousands of her parents hard earned money, and she doesnt even know if she wants to study what she is studying. So it seems, she's gonna change from her chem major to a business major. Meaning this 1.5 yrs were spent doing nothing, and the money simply went down the drain. The worst thing is, she doesnt even know whether she really wants to do business. If her parents arent well off, i am so damn sure she wouldnt have a choice to float around for two years not knowing what to do, but wasting shit money at the same time. You are damn lucky man.
Yes, and so i must have my direction in life. I am gonna write, write, write. Someone please gimme a chance and hire me somewhere. God please gimme the strength to stop being lazy.See how crazy this world is? You have to worry about getting a job even before you graduate.
I think i am gonna ink myself soon, but he keeps making me think about it again and again. Should i? Should i? It's something i've been thinking of for a long time, and i think doing it here will be much better. At least my parents cant say much. Hoho.
Alrighty, time for breakfast then class, then gym. Have a good weekend people!

Woaho!
________________________________________________________________
Wah...just did some work, and am feeling pretty accomplished. However, i have another paper due on thursday..so much work all of a sudden! The semester is coming to an end and the finals is in two weeks! woaho! But non of my friends are stress yet! This is called the exchange student syndrome. haha.
Oh yah, i just wrote an evaluation on my teammate, the one who didnt come for one single meeting but showed up during the presentation. This is my evaluation to her, and i am supposed to email it to her, cant wait for her to read it!
Evaluation on Tifanny:
Tiffany did not reply to my emails regarding project meetings. She never once showed up for a single project discussion and we all thought that she had quit the class. Basically she did not contribute to any part of our project. She however did email some links to laya as her “research”. That was however, apparently insufficient. She did not show up to rehearse the presentation with us, but notified us on the morning of the presentation that she was going to be part of the team and present with us. Although she did show that she has a rather good understanding of Sudan, she did nothing to aid the team when we were putting the presentation together. Although she did state that she was sick and had some personal problems, her contributions were insufficient and hugely unfair to the rest of the team.
OK, i know i sound damn mean, but every single sentence is true!
Anyways, got my travel schedule all planned yesterday. Even booked the tickets already.
May 10th - Exams end
May 11th - Fly from LA to Washington D.C

Messed up morning
________________________________________________________________
YumYum. Am eating a sinfully delicious muffin which i didnt even want to buy in the first place. It's been a long morning even though its just 10.30am now. Hung up the phone at around 3am last night, had to wake up at 745am for my morning class. And i had to go around looking for a printer to print my 27 page research paper out.
Got to the building where my class's at around 820. Couldnt find a bloody computer lab cause its so freaking early. Cycled all the way to the other side of campus to look for another lab. Finally decided on the library. Asked around for the printing place, finally found it, clicked print on the desktop, and found out that i need to use my student card to pay. Went around looking for the machine to top up my card. Found one, and realised i only had a 20 bucks. And once you put it into the card, its a no refund. So asked around stupid ang mohs, begging them to break the twenty for me. All stupid ang mohs said they dont have change without even looking at their wallet. shit them. Had to get out of the library and go to the cafe to break. Asked the cashier if she could break it for me, and she said i need to wait for someone to buy something. So shit her, i bought myself an ugly looking muffin. which actually tastes pretty good. Anyways, ended up 40 mins late for class. And now i am gonna skip my 11am class, again. Haiya, no good. But i cant stand the class. The tutor hates me too. Shit me.
Hope the rest of the day turns out better. Am gonna motivate myself to go to the gym later. Been getting lazier and lazier, jeans getting tighter and tighter. And hohoho. My friends are making bah kut teh tonight. Cant wait :)

Lyric of the month |
Travis - Flowers in the Window
There's no reason to feel bad
But there are many reasons to feel glad, sad, mad
Its just a bunch of feelings that we have to hold
But i am here to help you with the load.
Wow look at you now
Flowers in the window
It's such a lovely day
And i am glad that you feel the same
Cause to stand up i'm in the crowd
You're one in a million
And i love you so, so lets watch the flowers grow.
