It’s almost two months since I last post my entry. Let’s just say that I have lost my interest in blogging. I have been rotting my life away in meaningless ways during the school holidays, and again, I could not even go for any vacation trips. I seriously need to do something about my life here and should stop waiting on SOME PEOPLE who always give me empty promises. Now that my close friends are back in Singapore, I don’t have to live a life of a hermit anymore. It feels like I’ve completely lost touch with the world and I need to replenish my mind. Well the new term in school isn’t that exciting, since the timetable is messed up and I’m only taking four subjects. Four general education subjects and only two of them (I think?) are useful for my transfer to the States. But I am confident that I can handle it way better for this semester. Just like what I always do all these time: BULLSHIT MY WAY THROUGH and I will definitely pass. Believe me, I have never failed any of my subjects so far and that also includes of never scoring a D. For this New Year, I actually made some resolutions for my own good.

1)     Drink Less … I mean not to dehydrate myself, but to cut down on my alcohol intake. It’s just that during the last few months, I’ve been partying with friends and drinking non-stop to drown my sorrows. I’m not taking any chances of developing beer belly or hormonal imbalance.

      2)     Clear my stuffs and sell them away quickly before I move out of Singapore.
 

3)     Do something about my course transfers to the States ... BCC is so darn slow in processing it.

4)     Chase after the morons who still owe me my stuffs or money perhaps.

5)     Stay away from people as best as possible ==> I’ve become cynical over the time and realized that too much of human interaction is the fatal flaw that leads to your downfall. Thus, I’ve also turned into an agnostic on the view of religion. I already have enough good friends, so I ain’t desperate in asking for more since I’m leaving soon.

There, just 5 simple resolutions and I’m not asking for anything else. Chinese New Year is coming next week, but I’m not fully looking forward to it because this whole event is more to spending time with family. As some of you know, I am not family-oriented because of the way I grew up, and I was always alone since my ugly childhood days. Besides I am only close to my 3^rd elder sis, and we don’t make fuss over stupid things, unlike everyone else.  Talking about festive seasons, I had some random conversation when I hung out with Aaron, Jessica and Rohan last Saturday. I realized that we have almost similar thinking on this issue. We hate Christmas, Valentine’s Day, Thanksgiving and any other occasions that involve large family-gathering and mundane stuffs.  Here are our reasons:

*    Christmas ==>When it’s time to give, it’s also time to lose.

Just because it’s always end of the year, it doesn’t signify anything. My dear friends, I am sure you all agree that this is just some marketing scheme lured by the greedy business corporations and some corrupted, self-proclaimed HOLY organizations.

*    Valentine’s Day ==> The CORNIEST CELEBRATION ever to exist in the universe!!! I feel terribly sorry for those who chunk their money away on useless gifts and flowers-soon-to-wither. Valentine just happened to appear from the name of two men who were Christian martyrs!!! I’m so glad that I never have to make such a big deal of this stupid occasion with any of my ex-flames.

*    Thanksgiving ==> I’ve never been through it before, but according to NORAA, the great master chef from Le Cordon Bleu, it’s all about the turkey feast that becomes the big deal. LOL!!!

Not that we have anything against traditional beliefs, but we feel that all these commercialized celebrations have resulted in human congestion. What do we gain from all these? Limited pleasure that will be forgotten in time? Somehow, I find that the Hindu Deepavali and Muslims Hari Raya celebrations are more significant as these communities are more humble in their own ways. These two communities don’t even need large human congestion to display the pride of their own heritage.

Time now is 15 minutes to 5 a.m. I shall conclude this post and go to bed.  I still have Macroeconomics class at 12.30 p.m. later and must get up by eleven o’clock!! Well, at least I finally managed to write something here. I’m now missing all my friends already!!! I hope I can hang out with them this coming weekend and we'll probably have an outing very soon. Till next time peeps!!! Au revoir!!!
