We're at this stage in life where we reminisce too much of our near past, worry too much about our near future, are
too clueless about everything that can, will, may happen to us, think we know alot, think we don't know anything,
am confident about the wrong things, take pride in wasting time away, want too much but want to do too little.
Ohwell.

HST
Some photos. I can't wait for the prickly prelims (alliteration!) to be over. I want fun quick.
Here's my Holy Study Table (HST) at home. I first set it up last year when it was nearing O's because there's no proper table at home for me to study. This table is also used for Mahjong at my house so making it into this state discourages me from playing Mahjong... at home. (I still went STSK's house the other day. Oh my oh my.)
Anyway, HST is holy because it's right in front of the altar. (Yes, see the red light, that's light from altar.) And I chose to sit back facing the teevee. So I face the altar and if I were to look up from my books, all I see is guan ying ma looking back at me.
That's supposed to prompt me to study harder.
HST also serves another important purpose because guan ying ma can bless me with good grades. Every time I feel like eating the whole table because ALL ORGANIC COMPOUNDS LOOK THE CATERPILLAR SAME, I look up and pray to guan ying ma that I can pass Chem. Oh the solace. Religion is mega important these days.
Last but not least, when prelims resume in two days' time, and I still haven't got past arenes, I can hug guan ying ma's legs (not Buddha's, but still).
I talked a lot for a single HST.
On the last day of pre-holiday-prelims, we went out to play. Okay actually we went out to Photohunt. And watched The Hunting Party which is a really great show. Anyway, the point is while waiting for the movie to start, we played pick-up sticks and I took pictures.
HongjiemeixXxXxX has never played pick-up sticks before in his/her life. I was pretty shocked because aren't pick-up sticks any kid from our era play? But then again, considering his insane pa-game skills, he probably started playing with his Computer (capital C because it's alive) when he was five. I wonder if he knows what's hopscotch.
Here's us all looking very intently at some stupid coloured sticks like we're expecting them to move. Okay fine we ARE expecting them to move, so that the person loses his turn and it's a turn nearer to ours. ._.
Melissa, looking like this is her first attempt although this is probably her 15070137888th time playing pick-up sticks. HOW CAN ANYONE CONTINUE LOOKING EXCITED FOR SO LONG. -wonders.
Serene Ah Ma also play. This shows that pick-up sticks is for people of all ages, ranging from small little kids like Melissa to old grandmothers like Serene. Pick-up sticks yoohoo.
Here's the many many many Spongebob stamps Songminghan got for me from Ebay after I keep complaining that I can't find them in all Minitoons. (They probably stopped selling.) One of the many here is actually from Priscilla, she gave me a Sandy stamp last or last last Christmas. Another is from gillian and chunying, they got me a Spongebob on my birthday this year.
Anyway, I got really excited over these stamps because they are mega cute. Quite a few are repetitive though. D:
So, thank you Songminghan. This is proof that you're not so mean afterall. The next time I say you're mean, you can show me my own post to convince me otherwise.
That's all. I'll have alot more pictures after prelims when I go out for FUN. :D
Byebye.
