Running through what I've been up to last week:
Wed-Went for Advanced Research Methods class which ended at 8pm. Nicole ends class really fast (not exceeding 75min each time). Man, I've got to start reading my notes after I'm done with the JW critique to do the critique on a quasi-experiment which I haven't found yet.
Thu-Tried out the ballet class at Leng Kee CC. It was rather strenuous but fun. I was sweating buckets from all the balancing we had to do for the barre exercises. Anothony the instructor was rather experienced though his English sounded a little strange. He advised me to go for a medical checkup for my spinal problem as it is quite serious (I thought it was unusual he spotted this problem on my first lesson with him while my other teachers took quite some time). I know my dancing is affected especially my balancing which was my strong point in the earlier years when I started out and now it's terrible. Hmm, I've been contemplating to seek medical attention since I was 18 but adding a financial burden on my parents in addition to my university fees would be imprudent. Been looking in the papers for a job but none has caught my eye yet. Guess I'm being too picky but I wanna work in a job which I enjoy.
Fri-Darling treated me to Swenson's at Jurong Point which was supposed to be a New Year treat :P. It was late as he was waiting for his pay. Thanks darling "). Bought 6 badges for $10 which had some cute messages for my bag ("I'm a Virgin. This is an old badge.", "Good girls are bad girls who never get caught.", etc). Seems as if I'm still childish.
I love cherries!
Darling loves eating the spoon! 
Darling eating a big scoop of ice cream!
I have a big head and my face looks extremely round compared to his!Sat-Went for 530pm ballet class and the terrible muscle ache from Thu's class made dancing painful. Miss Ho made us do penchees and told us to aim for 180 degrees with one leg high up in the air and to keep the back straight. Only Nicole and Jasmine were that flexible. I could barely manage 135 degrees and I was the worst when I looked around the class. Miss Ho told me to try harder but I didn't want to push myself anymore since my leg muscles were screaming that they might tear.
After class ended at 715pm, I went home to get dressed to meet Jomie for a movie at Cineleisure Orchard at 9pm. That guy ah, meet him each time I'm always kept waiting! I was late for 10 min but he was even later arriving 30 min after the agreed time. We wanted to catch Apocalypto but the seats left were quite bad. Hence I decided on The King at 155am which was about an illegitimate son taking revenge on his father's new family when his father rejected him. As we had too much time to spare, we walked over to The Food Republic at Wisma for dim sum, bak chor mee and dessert.
After the heavy meal as I was extremely thirsty we walked back to Cineleisure for grape soda at Yoshinoya. The movie was interesting partly coz I was savouring the eye candy who was the male lead. He's a little short though but since I have a thing for short guys... Haha. When the movie ended we both had to rush to the toilet as the cold made our bladders very full :P. We walked to the carpak at Centrepoint where Jomie had placed his bike and we agreed on having a Mac Donald's meal near my home. This was partly due to Jomie's craving for a milk shake but unfortunately it was breakfast time! I had hotcakes while Jomie had Sausage McMuffin. Subsequently we were taking crazy videos of each other as I was still extremely hyper. Jomie commented that I seemed like I'm a character from a movie. Maybe it's a reflection of how I feel about myself: that I'm not in control of my life and that there is a director who controls what I'm doing. By the time I reached home it was 630 am in the morning.
This is what happens when you have bored people... Anyway, forbidden fruit is desirable!
Jomie wants a taste of the apple. Thank god nobody was there , otherwise they would have thought there are 2 crazy people doing mad stuff.
Sun-Slept as my eyes were extremely dry and did not make it to the first Advanced I 930am class at Bedok CC. Spent the whole day basically rotting. Checked that I got a Pass for my Organisational Behavior module which is something for me to celebrate. I just HATE business modules! Suck big time! My 5th pass out of 24 modules. Hope that I can get a Pass for my last Human Resource Management module so I can attend the graduation ceremony in July.
Mon-Day of ZZZing.
Today-Woke up very early in the morning to search for articles related to Emotional and Social Dysfunction in the Brain. I couldn't get the original articles by David Andrewes which was very frustrating. Well, I guess I just have to crap my way through as usual but having found more than 10 articles I think it would be enough for a 2500 word critique. Aim to finish my work by next Wed so I don't have to make an extra trip to school on the 2nd Feb.
Had breakfast with Ma at the coffee shop at 8am before going to collect my prizes of Maybelline products {3 nail polish (Man I've 1 unopened 1 at home), 1 mascara (2 at home), 1 lip gloss (very handy as my Dior one is finishing), 1 lipstick (countless) and 1 2 way foundation (2 at home)}and Garnier products {2 whitening masks, anti-wrinkle facial foam, firming day cream and eye cream which are very handy for the aging me}.
Was thinking that blogging is actually quite an exhibitionist act. Why else would we write if there was no audience? I still recall the days I used to write on paper for my diary starting with Dear diary. Seems as if I was communicating with my imaginary friend. Granted that I didn't set any privacy controls I do censor my posts as compared to the handwritten diary in the past. But I do hint of certain stuff which prompt me to recall events which aren't written here. Another way of remembering how I have been leading my life which is more reliable as my hard disk (memory) is starting to fail me.
On a new topic, I was pondering over how difficult it is to be a good decent human being. It's so easy to live yet to live well with meaning and be an upright, righteous person who helps others, not many of us can achieve this. I guess most of us are just living and not living as a good person. It's quite difficult to abide by ethics, morals and social rules. In addition, we must be considerate and helpful to people who are less well off than us. Furthermore we must keep an optimistic and happy outlook on life. I suppose not many of us can achieve such a fruitful life as we are selfish and hedonistic. Sometimes we care too much about ourselves to consider others in our lives. But I guess ultimately if we try our darnest to do the best that we can, even if we can't achieve the status of a saint at least we've tried. Life is so much more than love, friendship, career, study and what we can have, isn't it?
