Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

"How happy is the blameless vestal's lot!

The world forgetting, by the world forgot.

Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!

Each pray'r accepted, and each wish resign'd."

What a gorgeous film!

Watch it!

We are so young...

Kid is so young.
I am so young.
I'm not talking ot physical age of coz... know i'm over the hill.......

Sometimes wonder if I ever grew up these past years
I still feel like i'm 20.
And that the way i handle situations..... i'm like 18?
Just some "Siao gin na"
How would you know whether you are handling an issue like an adult?
How can one learn to be mature in situations?
How do you know whether you did it right?

Tired.

Sign of old age.

Clean and Clear

Figured that I should have stopped whining earlier.
Denial and escapism did make me feel better momentarily, but guess in the long run, its still much better to nip the problem in the bud.
In my case... it means packing my class, tidying up my room and trying to do my admin stuff.
Now that my class and room is cleaner, conscience a tad clearer, i feel slightly less grouchy.

But you know how Clean&Clear dries up the skin? Remember to moisturise.

Egg White and Cucumber

Smeared on my face now is the egg white and cucumber home-made mask recommended by sis. So while my eyes are twitching and tight, gonna start another entry...

And when you see multiple entries .. you know its Escape-from-Lesson-Plan, Pre-Monday-Blues night.

Gosh. Why do i hate doing lesson plans SO MUCH? One teeny consolation- its Term 1 WEEK 10!

1 WEEK before school holidays (not that i really have holidays... sigh) So i get to take a break from stupid LP for 1 week. Cheers...



Was complaining vehemently to sis during jogging this morning about our stupid organisation, MCP calculative P etc... Really unmotivated to do more work because of all the dumb things teachers are made to do...

Already have problem doing what I am supposed to do ( i need time to read, stone and procrastinate also k... its justified...ahem..)

ANYWAY, the point is, i stay back in school because i want to prepare for my lessons, do some resources etc... Recently i find myself staying back because of silly meetings about curriculum and stuff irrelevant to my own work. And i'll prob be observed by my appraiser next week... One word: SIAN.



Furthermore, the rubbish heap of stuff jumbled my brain up making me unsettled all the time. Instances:

1. I couldn't swim in peace. (That day, after helping out another CCA, stayed back to swim- told myself only wanted to do a leisurely 10 laps but ended up swishing back and forth non-stop... just can't seem to relax..)


2. I was impatient when jogging. Couldn't enjoy the journey... only wanted to quickly finish and get my ass back home.


3. Had another "nightmare". Actually... it was a daymare. Fell asleep before my tuition today. In my dreams, i was in Khatib and i was late for tuition. Was anxiously trying to figure out what was the fastest way i can get back to Jurong for tuition. Its like Wah-Rao, cannot even get away from school related landmarks in my dream

Other Stuff:

• I suspect that I am suffering from (mild) OCD


• I can't go on MSN because I will get distracted from work


• My room is bloody messy and i hate it


• My classroom is bloody messy and i hate it


• I eat too much


• I eat too much


• I EAT TOO MUCH!

Haha.. how grouchy.

Oh, since i'm eating too much, wanna share one of my favvv... BREAD

Went Cedele (because all the other restaurants at Wheelock spotted queues) with Zhuz on Friday night and was pleasantly surprised to find out that it is not only bread on the menu. Though ... we chose to eat sandwiches eventually.

Anyway, i love the sandwiches =) Think I'll probably go back again, just to try out other stuff on the menu.

To end off... a short note- i have forgotten how therapeutic music can be. So used to leaving tv on while doing work that i seldom on musik. I actually have 8Gb worth of music on my notebook, should not let them go to waste =P

OH... I wanted to add on... bought some old vcds from rental shops recently! They are a steal at 3 for $10 (who needs new ones anyway...) I have Royal Tenenbaums, Gosford Park, Little Miss Sunshine, Blood Diamond, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind etc... Lovely!

Love & Marriage

Recently joined a forum on beauty tips and stumbled upon this:

What is love ?

A student asked a teacher. "What is love ?"
The teacher said, "In order to answer your question. Go to the padi field and choose the biggest padi and come back. But the rule is: you can go through them only once and cannot turn back to pick."The student went to the field, go through the first row and saw one big padi stalk, but he wondered....maybe there is a bigger one later. Then he saw another bigger one... but thought may be there is a even bigger one waiting for him.Later, when he finished more than half of the padi field, he start to realise that the padi was not as big as the previous one he saw, he knew he has missed the biggest one, and he regretted !!!! So, he went back to the teacher with empty hands.The teacher told him, "...this is love... you keep looking for a better one, but when you realised later, you have already missed the person...."

"What is marriage then ?" the student asked.
The teacher said, "In order to answer your question, go to the corn field and choose the biggest corn and come back. But the rule is: you can go through them only once and cannot turn back to pick."The student went to the corn field. This time he was careful not to repeat the previous mistake. When he reached the middle of the field, he has picked one medium corn that he felt satisfied, and come back to the teacher.The teacher told him, "this time you bring back a corn.... you look for one that is just nice, and you have faith and believe this is the best one you got.... this is marriage."
