If you’re feeling light-hearted,

Xixi No Banho

Yes, you probably wouldn’t have any idea what that means. But that’s what makes it so fun(ny)!

How to screw yourself up psychologically on a drizzly Saturday night: skip dinner, drool at Nigella Bites, then gawk at the Biggest Loser season finale.

Seriously.

I wanna make friends with a hippie and smoke (salmon) and talk about feminism and dance in the moonlight along to the beats made on the backs of guitars until the birds get annoyed and decide to find other places to roost.

Today I ran and felt like answering the call of nature 95% of the time, and instead responded its call by slowing down to allow a roach and a rat cross my path.

And I decided that charred toasts don’t like themselves much.

From xkcd.

When I came back from Hong Kong I was a checks covert – unfortunately so was everyone else. But what led me towards the path of squares and lines was an unlikely pair of branded shoes that I saw at some warehouse, that were already sold :(

Mmmmmm.

There’s this site that makes lots of timeline maps about various issues, and they give you a really interesting outlook on history. There’s maps on the spread of Democracy, Religion and other stuff. It’s called Maps of War and I’m reabsorbing Secondary 1 History all over again.

Land of Talk – It’s Okay

Every time I see works as amazing as this it makes me feel happy. Who needs mtv when this is so much better? (Do wait for it to load – it’s really worth it!) Song’s by Land of Talk; directed by WeWereMonkeys!

Stress officially took form for the first time in my head a month ago, and I thought it had subsided – but I guess it follows the current economic trend. Gives you false hope of things getting better, then brings you down again.

With great power comes great responsibility. If it happens again I’m so not going to let myself drive anymore. Cabs would seriously be a cheaper alternative.

Back to studying for my useless and uninteresting module – but as a Singaporean student I should be quite used to it by now, so I can do it. Optimism is key.

I feel so cheated, learning that it wasn’t a friend that I made – it was just someone who viewed me as another target to convert into a Christian and walk the ‘path of God‘. Who are you to tell me what to believe in, who are you to say that I will only find ‘life abundant‘ in Jesus?

There you are, already committing (at least) one of the deadly sins.
