sanguine

i think i like things plain and simple nowadays.
nothing else, no frills, just you and me, and the trees.

house party was only alright, not spectacular, lots of stuff to improve upon.
but i guess, most people had fun, especially those who stayed on. in that sense i must say we did the best we could with circumstances. thank you all who made it possible- my fellow house commers, ms chen, the performers, the emcees, the av pple, kampung istemewa and whoever gave us permission to use the hall and what not. and of course those who actually came for the fun of it, not just the food, which was undeniably good. i hope you guys took away something from it, be it a prize, some laughter, or a new acquaintance from moor tarbet. sometimes things do not have to exceed expectations- they just have to meet expectations, even when expectations weren't there in the first place.

for me i had fun, although i was running about clearing up, settling stuff, putting up decor, meeting pple, distributing papadums and cutting watermelons here and there. im thankful to those who helped in one way or another, especially during cleanup. it was a breeze! and later dani james jerry and i went off to macs for some supper/dinner. it was over, but i guess we were more tired than anything.

and so one event comes to a close. it wasnt as memorable as it shldve been, but i'll be content with what we had. some pple actually said it was fun and good- i guess its a matter of being willing to have fun. if u came with the intention of leaving after the food, then i suppose the whole thing mustve been a drag :]

i keep thinking what all my ccas have prepared/are preparing me for. i think i know what for some, and for others, well, i guess we dont really know what will help us in the future. a lot of my experiences, im thankful to have them. some of them from young have already come in useful thus far, and sometimes of course i wish i did more and learnt more and picked up more, so that i wldnt be so helpless in some areas now. but every little bit that we can do we do. im not gonna force myself but i think i know what i want enough to work towards it.

oh yeah today i started SAT prep! which is kinda running against time but better late than never! slowly but steadily. i think i will do and read a little a day, and not let it slip. i think im gonna do that for math too, cuz i have to. speaking of which, common tests have resulted in a BADE lineup, perhaps suggesting i shld bade goodbye to all my other frivolous committments. i promise myself i will shirk off all responsibilities pretty soon and meanwhile im just gonna gear up for that exhausting stretch that lies ahead. im not terribly disappointed with results i guess- partly cuz i know i can do so much better. just needa find the power within me.

pw much to my relief was a band 1! and for the whole group too! for the record, huge thanks to shirin, glen and trix for the wonderful moments spent together- short and few, but nonetheless priceless. we really worked so hard towards the end and i think we deserved it :] to all those who didnt get what they wanted im gonna seem hypocritical but yet extremely practical: dont worry, it's only pw. we know in time to come it wldnt matter that much anyway. anw i think i was the only one in class who bothered to thank mrs jai singh. poor woman everyone discredits/blames her! to her defence i shall jump! seriously, i dont get where all that ingratitude is coming from. there is so much cynicism and animosity i feel so bewildered. but then again, best be aloof and zen abt such things. it's amazing how sometimes i seem to be the most explosive in class, and at other times, the most at peace.

good friday meant nothing to me religiously. because i have not one to believe in. then again i felt guilty wasting it away like some horrid potato couch that got mashed by my own sloth. woke up at 2pm. watched tv/tapes till 7pm. and then attempted to understand math. today i woke up to the call for lunch- went out to hanabi restaurant and ate hell lot of japanese food on buffet. it was good though. my first try at sashimi too- which i must say was so tasteless and disappointing that im not keen to try it again. then dropped by alan optics again to check my permanent lenses and after bumming around at home went out again for dinner and yes i finally got a proper line. so my number's gonna change and im really gonna miss it and i must say goodbye to all my messages and photos too cuz im gonna change my phone.

but like i said- i just want things simple and easy now. i guess this could be a start.
