This is a bit backdated. I went down to Bugis last week after exams to catch up on my deprived shopping and also to check out the new shopping mall sensation Iluma. I think it's a really hip and cool place for teenagers to hang out, and there are quite a few concept avant garde fashion boutiques + restaurants. One of its main attractions is an escalator that stretches all the way to fourth floor, the longest escalator I have seen so far in Singapore. It's comparable to the ones in Universal Studios, California. Way cool, I remember Keifer and I had to ride the escalator that same week when we revisited the place.

Why did you end up with a bloke like that?
You deserve better babe.

Then again, who am I to say that he's not worthy. Haha.

We've all grown up, havent' we?

This is overwhelming! Susan Boyle's uninteresting facade gave a bigger twist when she delivered her beautiful rendition of Les Miserables' "I Dreamed a Dream". She truly deserved the standing ovation. I think her appearance on Britain's Got Talent brought about a bigger meaning, which is that, we are all unique and beautiful in every way. Therefore never judge a book by its cover, you never know the talents he/she has hidden inside. Bahs, it's gotten me all teary.

Never stop dreaming, my friends.

From the lyrics of the song "I Dreamed A Dream"
Then I was young and unafraid
And dreams were made and used
And wasted
There was no ransom to be paid
No song unsung
No wine untasted.

And still
I dream he'll come to me
That we will live the years together
But there are dreams that cannot be
And there are storms
We cannot weather...

I think it's one of life's biggest humiliation to be enslaved by exams. Why am I subjecting myself to a planned course that seemingly looks uncontrollable, and yet, deep inside I know I can make a choice. Or did I relinquish that god-given right to master my life in my own hands long ago?

And it only seems I am more of a loser when I give in to these little whimsies in life. Breaking out of our comfort zone suddenly feels insurmountable, fear of the unknown and uncertain is probably the biggest Goliathe I have to face.

I don't know what I am talking about seriously. Just a scared lil' kid who's gonna wet his pants anytime.

Really can't wait to get done with my exams, then I'll start planning my exhaustive list of agenda. Then of course I need to get my BKK trip planned out asap~ Weeeee!

Why is life so unfair? Reality check: it just is and there's freaking nothing you can do about it so quite whining!

I am more determined than ever to earn my first $1m by 28 and legitimately buy a Maserati of my own! I swear if it wasn't for our old time's sake, I would have scratched Keith's Audi TT out of sheer jealousy.

One green-eyed monster subdued for the day.

Life takes on the most sudden twist, and it couldn't get any more dramatic.

歌手阿桑6日早晨8点半因病去世

北京时间4月6日消息，据台湾媒体报道，曾经演唱过《叶子》这首歌的歌手阿桑，因为去年十月罹患乳癌末期，于今天(6日)早上八点半，病逝于台湾新店慈济医院，享年34岁。

　　本名黄嬿璘的阿桑，今年34岁，曾经待过艺工队，也短暂唱过PUB，有丰富的现场演唱经验，被经纪人资深制作人汪一平发掘之后就辞去演唱的工作专心准备出片，在筹备等待发片的期间，为了维持生活，也当过律师事务所的总机与百货公司的客服播音小姐。

　　阿桑因为演唱电视剧《蔷薇之恋》片尾曲而走红，总共发行过两张专辑。去年十月被检查出乳癌末期，于今日(6日)早八点半，病逝于台湾新店慈济医院。

Ah Sang's sudden death got into me. It's not like I am a big fan of hers but I still took it quite traumatically. It's shuddering when you think about how her tragic life took on a similar path to all her songs. So uncannily morbid.

WG! You must be feeling the same way too right? TT

I have been rejected by Ennie's wordpress twice in attempts to write comments on her blog. En, yaknowwhat, I give up.

It's really excruciating when you can't get through an idea to the person intended for.

I can't stay for too long. There's a meeting with my hall guys for our upcoming hall FOC. I really wonder how I got myself into volunteering for the cause. Must have been Sylvia's hypnotic persuasion that got me into it. Now I'm really half-hearted...how?

I have a marketing written report due coming Monday and so far I have only hit the drafting stage. This is bad. No, bad is an understatement. It's beyond hope. So I borrowed a few good marketing books from the library. Here's a recommendation if you are in for a good read: Seth Godin's Meatball Sundae. Very wittingly written with very meaty lively cases incorporated...

Back to work. In the meantime, still missing En and bearing a huge grudge on her lousypok wordpress.
