today i shook the hands of this man.



the man whom i wanted to silence.



the man whom made me hate.



the man whom i thought was prejudice against me.



the man whom was selfless.



the man whom shared.



the man whom i looked up to.







these are his hands.



the hands that drew.



the hands that taught.



the hands that wrote criticism but we were never disheartened.



the hands that he would use every thursday to bring cake to his platter.



the hands that looked fatigued but never was and never will be.







this is him. ever so encouraging.



"Thank you, Phil." was i told him, shaking him by his hands.



"And thank you for the entire semester of hardwork, HY." he replied.


("Thank you...again" as i thought to myself.)

"HY, your plans are beautifully drawn. It's not about the quality of the drawings, it's about the page."

=.=

can somebody give me consent to silence this man.

我不是伤心也没有难过。
只是当初想不通事情会演变成这样一种局面，所以难免会感到非常懊恼。
懊恼渐渐地变成了我心中的一个结使到我感到纳闷。
只能说我有一点点生气。（或许不只一点点）
但那也只不过是一天的事。

现在，我不伤心，不难过，不懊恼，不纳闷，也不生气。
只希望这一切能以最佳的方式来解决。
朋友永远都会是朋友。

我的朋友，难道不是吗？

initially it was out of friendship,

then it was out of sympathy.

一个人的容忍是有限度的。

sadly, you're pushing the limit.

don't try me.

it's not going to be a pretty sight when things turn ugly.

spent an eventful day with tracy yesterday.
though the thought about workload piling up kept surfacing at the back of my mind (which irritated me quite a bit), the entire day was just shopping, eating and more shopping!!
apparently we didn't buy alot but ahma(aka tracy) spent a quart of her money already. >.<
had dimsum for lunch.(i have had dimsum for lunch for quite a few times already. won't ever get sick of it. com'on...any food is better than hall food.)
shopping with ahma in the afternoon.
dinner at a rather budget japanese place called, "TAKA".
many thanks to ahma's er-jie for sending me back to the hall. =))

***

this is a very dry and wordy post. so i kept it rather short. no pictures. lugged a camera with me the entire day but didnt use it. pictures found in tracy's blog. =)))

spent the weekend at 姑姑's house to relieve homesickness.
felt so much better. =)))
but that would equate to the piling up of my assignments. >.< oops~
it's ok. i'm prepared to burn the midnight oil anyway. =)) i'm a very good procrastinator, remember? never start on my work until the last minute. XD
my accumulated fatigue over the past months explains why i kept dozing off on the sofa while watching tv.

to shuning: i don't deny my work is fun. but the intensity of the workload is driving me a lil' crazy. =))

***

p.s.(all charged up and ready to go!!! i've got tons of midnight oil to burn.)

***

scooting off to meet ahma(aka tracy) later!!! she's here!!! whoopie~ XDD

a day at the beach is the best way to relieve all forms of stress. =))


why i love my course?

1. i get to go to the beach to chill
2. i get to "skip" lectures and tutorials because they were all cancelled!! whoopie~
3. i get to build "sandcastles"!!!


***


fyi: this particular module requires us(students) to explore the qualities of all sorts of material. this project requires us to build a structure that can allow standing, sitting and lying, using only sand and water.


Leighton beach...

actually our project at the beach was over a period of two weeks. during the 1st week at the beach...

apparently our structure wasn't lookin' too good.

Eng (our tutor), "What is this??!!"

(us) whoops~

so this brings us to our 2nd visit to the beach...

gi-mongous waves!!

lookin' good...

TADAH~!!!

Eng, "Very well-done."

(note the difference >.<)

testing the structure out...(our standing position)

sitting...

sitting...(from side-view)

another sitting perhaps?

NOW...all three!!!


jumpshots~!! (took us the entire day to build it...930am-430pm)

5min to return it back to the original state. O.o

the entire team!!! XD

time to go back... =)))

how true...

i've bought the phonecard!!! will be able to call during weekends(hopefully).

no idea what came over me.
missing home a great deal.
this is hall, not home.
the change in mattress does not guarantee better sleep. comfort?-yep. better?-no.

we shall go GG(gai gai) when i return.
we shall gorge ourselves silly when i return.
we shall stay up everynight to play mahjong when i return.
we shall camp at somebody's house to chill when i return.
we shall gym out when i return.
we shall dive in into the pool when i return.
we shall glue ourselves to the teevee when i return.
we shall go simpang to have prata when i return.
we shall go 85 to have oyster omelette when i return.
we shall...you know what we shall do. =))

stress from work is getting into me.
i promised myself not to feel this way. i broke that promise.
it has been several months since i last tear up.
well...i have yet to. it doesn't mean i wouldn't.
