Words fail.

I'm giving myself a break till 5pm before I attempt to drown myself in the world of Calculus where sequences and series abound. My moods/ emotions have been on some of a massive roller coaster, going all the way up and then, zooming all the way down.

But it's getting better. My nerves are calmer. I really need to get patience flowing in my blood. Agitation serves no purpose.

Haha. What a disconnected sentence. As long as I get what it means.

From today onwards, I'm bidding Facebook and Twitter bye till Sunday nights. I'm such an addict.

Oh! Anyway, because I was giving myself this break till 5, I wanted to watch 90210. But it's such a crappy show and I decided to give up watching all other shows. And I'm pretty sure that I won't even be tempted when it comes to 'The Vampire Diaries'.

Bored of dramas, I supposed. When I'm into something, I'm really into it. And once I'm out, I can never find my way back in. It's a good thing, in this case. Right?

My English is so going to the dogs. Thank goodness for the books that I bought at the end of the holidays. I'm still very much into John Grisham.

Last night, I printed out my lab assignment and worked on it. This morning, I woke up at 5.15am, all ready to go to school, punch in the codes, do some correction and bid ugly school goodbye. I arrived in school, completely zonked out. As I was walking to the lab, I saw this 'foreigner (He completely didn't look Chinese or Singaporean.)' and out of habit, I tried to guess his country. (SHIT. It's 5pm already. Okay, 5.15pm.) When I reached his table (I had to walk past his table in order to get to the lab.), he said 'Hi Charlene.'. Then I realized that he was an ex-schoolmate. I was a little too stunned (because of various issues. I mean, I'm pretty sure, no dead certain, he hates the crap out of me.) and way too zombie-fied  to mind my manners. I did manage a hurried 'Oh hello though.' before scurrying off to the lab.

At the lab, I realized that I was the only one, save for some random guy who was surfing, there. I was early, yes, but usually there would be others (from my course) who were earlier than me. And then, to my HORROR, I found out that there was no lab.

You can't imagine how much I felt like shooting myself in the foot.

I took a cab home. The damage was 40 bucks but heavy traffic was avoided. Gran nearly suffered a cardiac arrest when I told her. I explained that I was from the bloody west. It serves as a reminder of how much I hate the west and school and to be more aware of the happenings in school from today onwards.

I was home 4 hours after leaving it. Fell into a deep coma for 2 hours. Studied Linear Algebra II whilst checking Facebook and Twitter sporadically.

Boring story of my day.
Bye virtual world.

I have been blogging tons of nonsense lately, thinking about all the things which I shouldn't be spending precious time on. School's been a major pain in the butt (I took my 6th test this morning... Is it the 6?!? I lost count.). But I can't lose sight of the future over petty feelings and thoughts.

I can't.
And I won't.
-

Starting from tomorrow, I'm camping at ___(insert: place)___. It will be my secret hideout (Okay, not so secret if you follow my Twitter.) and no one will find me there. I shall spend so much time with Math that I become Math herself (Yes, Math is a female. Ha!). Haha.

On a happier note about school, I'm actually excited that I'm FINALLY doing Probability and Statistics, even though I don't understand what's going on (Seriously, lectures are a complete waste of time. I have decided to self-study. I learnt SO MUCH more. It could be because I'm a slow learner and I really need to understand it through and through before moving on.), because Statistics is the track that I want to go into.

A friend once tweeted 'If you're good at something, people will throw money at you to do it.'. Something along those lines. That will be my mantra from now on.

It's a powerful one, aye?

From today onwards, I shall be a dedicated Math student.

I can and will beat the crap out of Math.

Haha.

Bye.

thank you.

This blog has sadly been left to rot. But rot no more, it will. I'm trying to find a balance between everything. Okay, really, it's just between work and fun. But I can't. Junior college gave me enough proof.

Beauty blogging will be done on Fridays from now on. I need a schedule so that I don't go haywire. I do that real easily.

Today, whilst yakking away to JH on the train, I realized that Jian Rui was standing opposite me. I couldn't remember his name initially (God help my memory!) and I was asking JH about it ("Do you remember? The really smart guy? The canoeist."). I'm not sure if he heard. I wasn't sure if he recognized me either. Anyway, he turned around and smiled and we talked after I hanged up the phone.

I never spoke to him in school. My first encounter with him happened last year, while I was on my way to dance class. He talked to me like I was an old friend. I pointed out my dance studio to him so that he could go check it out and quickly zipped into the toilet (God help my bladder!). When I came out, I found him waiting outside, just so that he could bid me goodbye.

Anyway, I got off at Lavender to get Dor's camera and then, met Kim and Ru at Bugis. I was trying to find the way to Hairloom & Caramel when Jian Rui popped out of nowhere. He was like "Are you lost?" and he led us to Shaw Towers.

I don't think I have met a nicer guy. Eli told me he's an A*Star scholar, he's a fab canoeist but he has completely no airs.

When Kim found out that I was interested in L'Oreal HiP, she invited me to the event.

When June's friend backed out of the event, she called to ask if I were interested.

When I needed help on eye creams and concealors, Joyce gave me tons of advice.

When I told Hazel that I was interested in the OCC lip tars, she gave me samples.

When I raved about Eryacne and complained that it was only available in Bangkok, Charlene offered to buy it for me.

When I needed a camera desperately, Dor offered me hers.

When I need someone to dry my tears or tell me that I am sane, I have Chua, Eli and Dor.

I think that I am a very, very lucky girl.

On a side note, I have been obsessing over B. He's like the PERFECT boy.

But sigh.

I am so not 'holy' enough.

Gawd. I am NOWHERE 'holy'. )':
