yada yada..

okay, fine. its finally here. exams week, tmr is the first paper--game theory. open book test, but im not arranging the notes, not preparing anything, basically just felt so so sick when i see any materials at all. see the irony, game theory is suppose to teach me how to make decisions rationally. guess emotions are not rational at all eh.

oh yesterday night still watch tv til late, realised that central is actually one of those very interesting channels, got very good programs here and there that are not very well publisized. i watched this dance thing by Akram Khan, apparently some 30 year old cheorographer from London, the genre is alternative Khatak (some indian dance). very interesting, probably the best cheorographed dance i ever seen. he added in sounds, and movements that are in sync with the sounds, so the dancers produce sounds. engages one more of your senses. the instruments used is a percussion, either a indian drum or some pot, with a cello as melody. cool.

now gian-ning nike V10. watch that displays and syncronises with the distance/acceleration measure device that is attach to your shoe. costs $199. US dollars depreciating, last i heard? just realised that all the shops in queensway, having 40% of sales on their watches. originally wanted to see whether they have the latest stuff, i guess not. for those out there who does not know, all the major shops in queensway shopping center has the same owner. oh just told by my friend that b.i.r.d is owned by some indonesian, they are not nike boutiques. the shopkeepers really dunno anything abt nike products by the way.

got a salomon VA comp. didnt manage to get VA PRO-II no size. oh well.

exam weeks are those times that i watch the most tv, and do things that i dont usually do, just to evade touching my materials. gosh.

anyways was watching some sad stories on tv, like tragedies. so i swtich away to another channel. my roomate commented that i am very sheltered from any evil of the world. well, i guess its true, i am very blessed in that sense i guess, good family, good friends. just some insecurities and lack of talents and brains. haha.

talking about family, how do you feel about your family?

exams. idle. dinner?

its exams period. about 10 days away. i always feel idle when i am having exams. such a contradictory feeling, not because im overly smart, that i dont need much revision or im idle cos i refuse to do my revision (in fact its the opposite). just that there's this bored;idle;sien; whatever-you-wanna-call-it feeling.

and as a sidekick to idle feeling, its really excruciating everytime it reaches dinner, when i have to decide what to eat. lunch is ok most of the time cos BY DEFAULT i'll be eating in sch (YUCKS!). and this i-hate-to-randomly-choose-my-dinner feeling weighs heavier on me during times like this. so sometimes i would ask my friends to have dinner with me, so that the company will lessen my pain on my taste buds and the emotional aftermath that comes. but oh well, i have busy friends and housemates.

maybe its some kind of pre-exam trauma. haha.. or im just weird. but hey, try not to eat at your home for almost 6 full years (i discounted the holidays periods when i go back ipoh), after that, you can qualify to call me picky. hehe..

anyways thru this i realise that i have a short attention span (which i know since young), and i hate to be idle. Oh, and i hate to be indoors for a long period of time (esp in my residence), it'll drive me crazy.

sprained my ankle on tuesday. pains me to walk down that 4 flight of stairs to get lunch or dinner everytime. of course it is the emotional claustraphobia to stay in my residence for more than a certain number of hours that will scath me more. i became so bored from revising and doodling on the laptop that i tried to sleep, but just staring at the darkness and not falling into sleep, then i realise something.

so every night when you lie on your bed and stare at the back of your eyelids, when all you see is darkness, when you turn your body and find a good position to slumber, take a moment to realise again that you can see and walk freely, to enjoy the sight and to travel to anywhere physically pain-free. take a second moment to imagine how would it feel like if you can't see and walk.

then.


Rejoice and Thank God. because He is good to you.
