I'm back again, after jcts and after handing in IS first draft, where i got four hours of sleep over the past two days.

IS is crazy:
hours in front of the computer surrounded by pages and pages of research.
travelling across singapore to weed my way into nus library with its new members-only policy.
cultural imperialism and orientalism running through my mind 24/7; before i sleep, in the bus, during lessons, while eating.

I'd better get an A for KI.

Its only the first draft. I predict many sleepless nights ahead.

Oh well. jcts are over, and i scraped through a pass, which was really nothing short of a heavensent miracle, considering how i crammed a year and a half's syllabus in around... two or three panic-stricken, caffeine-laden days. with co now officially over after syf presentation, its time to mug away for prelims. the very first time i can seriously study throughout my jc life.

going to bugis later to get presents for qing gong yan. yup, co is really officially over. in a way i'm happy cuz it's time to finally study, for once, and stop getting grades that put me at a loss whether i should laugh or cry. but i'll really miss co. its not easy i guess, and sometimes when i'm so stressed, seeing everyone being free enough to watch movies or club all day/night and still have time to mug away, and i have to stay in school 24/7, i wonder if i made the right decision staying in co instead of dance, or perhaps some superslack nothing-to-do pdp. without the wonderful people in co - the comm, my crazy section.. well, i wouldn't know what i'd do. and the times we spent together, all those funny gossip sections during sectionals, us getting gwh, the outings with all the comm people, that day during syf presentation. Relationships are sometimes so fragile and easily forgotten - so, yeah, must keep in touch k. Haha, i'm emo-ing away. i'll just miss you all ALOT.

hmmm. on a lighter, less emo note. shiyu spotted her dream prom dress at stamford house, so we went there yesterday. close-up, it wasn't so dream-worthy after all, the lace on it looks a bit ah-ma. but nevertheless, we walked in and stepped into a heavenly boudoir of pretty dresses and glamourous vintage furniture. i guess it's too early to go prom dress shopping, considering i might not be able to get out of TJ alive, but its super fun la! I think we all went mad inside. at first gita tried on this 50's-hollywood-starlet kind of dress, all ruched and figure-hugging, and when she walked out we all went WOW. It looks so nice on her, so glam. and lol, damn sexy too, the back was like so exposed. but all the better for ta right? =)

And seeing ta like that, fen went to try on this peachy-pink flouncy princessy dress. She's so skinny, so she can wear almost anything, but it was so funny seeing her look so sweet and demure suddenly. So unlike someone with such a huge collection of RA jokes. And shiyu tried on this black lace dress, i think its look quite victorian-gothic. Very nice too. And they tried to make me try something on!

And i couldn't find anything. Cuz i felt pai-seh that we were disturbing the salesperson so much, and me in a dress is just.... until the salesperson in her killer stilettos took out this deep purple halter dress, i think the colour and everything looks quite anna sui, and asked me to just try it on. Waaah. I think it's super nice la! Its the last piece somemore. I'd vote the salesperson employee of the month. They gave out free mags too. Maybe it's cuz we were talking quite loudly about coming back with our parents' money, so that they'll serve us better. Lol. And i need to learn how to walk in heels, cuz a few steps in a pair made me look and feel as if i'm walking on stilts. so unglam!

Too bad we didn't and couldn't take photos - or we can show RONNIE. Why didn't you come with us...... we saw ALOT of your type of dresses!!! =((((( those pastel colours type. =((

Then we went to chinatown. Fen tried on this gold cheongsam for racial harmony day. The splits are SUPER high la. Then ta had to leave early and we went to people's park cuz fen wanted to look for cheap topshop-lookalike skinny jeans. On the 2nd and 3rd level we discovered quite alot of nice shops. Very like bugis street, only in there you can actually breathe. Yup, alot alot alot of cheap stuff. Going to such places is so much better than malls, where everything is overpriced and generic. Next stop, arab street and ann siang road. Attendance is compulsory k! =)

And i want to be skinny enough to wear skinny jeans. =( Lol.

Oh well, going out now. bye.
