i'm up late again. (okay early 330am) well, as usual, i am rushing out an assignment due 2 days later and i've barely started. but finally, after many hours (more than 5 hours) of pondering and discussing with my sister and my friends, i have more or less settled upon my topic. i hope the topic works out fine. hence, i decided to pop by blogger.com for a quick post. hehe.
it is no surprise that i am not sleepy yet. why? i slept almost the whole day. again! well this doesnt happen all the time. this only happens when i can afford the time, and i have a feeling that my 2day cycle thing is coming true. i sleep a lot every 2 days. the sleep for the day in btw is like perhaps ranging from a 1 to 3 hr nap. i do expect more of these to come with all my deadlines for projects and assignment coming in.
so... being at home, my best friend happens to be TV, cable TV to be exact, most times. and tonite, i found myself on the sports channel, watching the highlights of the Winter Olympics. i realised that i love sports, of most kinds and the sport channels are one of those that i frequent. the only thing is that sometimes when i don't understand certain games or event, i long for someone to explain that to me. digressing a little, i guess it would be nice if my future boyfriend would be more knowledgeable in most sports than myself. for that matter, have an interest in sports in general. hehe.. i guess tt's not tt difficult since most males do. but then again, a wide range of sports u know. haha i practically watch any and every sport. yep. haha.
okay.. tt's all for a short post. i shall pop by my brother's room to see if there's any Winter Olympic games on TV now. just a break before carrying on with my work. hehe. now that i have decided on my topic, i'm one step closer to finishing my project.
p/s: for my project, i'll be writing on "The Failure of Boo.com" so anyone with any comments or information to spare, please feel free to let me know. i would greatly appreciate it! :)

oops okay another quick blog. this is an important emergency update. hehe.
i just finished a research proposal for one of my modules. stayed up the whole night to do it after sleeping until the evening then doing for my hall's pageant preview bash which i only stayed for the programme because i had to come back to start on my proposal and also due to my discomfort. please let me elaborate.
on the fateful 21 feb 2006, i experienced very bad cramps due to *ahem* (the girls should know). i went back to my room to rest for a while but when i was in my room, i felt faintish and saw my room spin for split seconds. in that split seconds, i lost my balance and fell, knocking over my bedside table. i got up and the world was still spinning, i realised was was on the verge of a blackout and the pain from the cramps were excruciating. afraid that i would faint and not be found since my room door was closed, i made my way to the door and sat at the corridoor waiting to be found. with the last of my energy i shouted for one of my friends/neighbour to rescue me. she heard me but was unable to verify if she really heard someone calling her because by then i had exhausted all my energy to call her another time. so i just sat there waiting to be "rescued".
thankfully, another neighbour walked by and saw me sitting at my doorstep with a super pale (almost white) face and a deep bleeding cut below my lower lip. she panicked. held me to my bed and called for more help. in my pain, i didn't even realise that i had cut myself from the fall. even when i was told while lying in bed, i did not know how bad the cut was. but i was told that it was quite deep and i probably need to visit a doctor. i guess i needed to see a doctor anyway, for the cramps. so i was brought to a clinic at Holland Village.
at the clinic, the doctor told me that i needed to stitch the cut up and that it was better for a plastic surgeon to do it because the cut was into a very small part of the lower lip and there would be complications should it not be stitched properly. hence, he suggested going to SGH as it was the only hospital with a plastic surgeon at that time of the night (or at least this was what i remember). okay.. hee to cut the long story short. i spent the next few hours at SGH and ultimately i got my cut stitched. 2 cuts in fact. one external (below the lower lip, to the left side). and one internal (in the lower lip, to the left side). the stitches was done by this young doctor from the plastic department in a minor operating theatre with LA.
i decided not to post an ugly picture of my stitches and my swollen and superbly dry lower lip to disfigure my blog. haha i may be disfigured, a small scar.. but i'm hoping for the best. boohoohoo. but no worries, i'm keeping positive and my spirits up. just that eating is a chore and the swell and cut is causing discomfort. other than that, i'm still all good. :)
just felt that i should let all you close ones know.

The long awaited Dance Production photos! Well, there are much more photos but I only chose a few to display. My criterion for selection was mainly the people, different costumes and a picture of the sets. I wish I had more pictures of the lovely sets. Until I collect more photos, I hope this is a good representative of what DP was for me. :)

tons of work to do but here i am at 5am blogging?! haha.. oh well, i decided a quick one before i go to bed. even though i haven't figured my ultimate question of "why I blog", it's usually i just feel like it. and even though i have no idea who still comes to browse since i told most of my friends not to link me and i only told this addy to a few friends, i still blog. i guess my dearest friends and sis peep in here now and then, and it's good in a way cos they get the general picture and idea of how i'm doing. but perhaps tt's all cos i'm not those avid bloggers with interesting posts and pictures to share. i guess one thing which people have commented is that my blog reflects me, like the posts and yeah.. other stuff haha. gee.. anyway, just for teasers, a friend whom i got to know recently (not tt recent though) like said he kinda chanced upon my blog - the older version cos i've changed my address a few times - and he kinda read it all the way until my very first post (230+ posts ago) i presume and he said he found the writer kinda cute. hmm can you actually tell tt from a blog?
anyway, i have thought abt changing my blog address once again. not because i'm running away from anything or anyone. i just feel like it. hehe. and of cos it's not because i don't love teaping anymore. i love teaping. but hmm.. yeah hahaha.. but no worries, i will inform when i'm moving. in addition, i'm itching for a new blogskin again. and it's not even exam time! (somehow i usually change the skin during exams eeks! :( ) p/s: jojo kong.. i am waiting for tt purple template okay? hehehe..
it's mid semester break this week. not really with me needing to be in school for project meetings most days even though there are no lessons. with tons of work piling up on my desk (almost literally), i need to go faster and stop procrastinating (as usual) and lazing (like sleeping, chatting, walking ard the house or my wing in hall and watching dramas). it's quite an important semester. very in fact. i'm enjoying what i read but they are still difficult to digest. esp since i don't have a habit of constant revision/study. for the next 8 to 9 weeks at least, i had better get used to it. i've been saying this every semester though haha but i really want to make it count. at least if i've done my best (like i was pretty satisfied last semester), regardless of whatever grades i get, i'll have peace.
that said, to bed i go! wheee! i'll be up in at maximum 6hrs. i've got a meeting at 12noon.

i decided to clarify my last post since it sounded so horrible.
i'm sorry if i caused any form of worry but i guess it was those once in a blue moon nights, or rather, early mornings, when the emotions take over. was feeling a bit messed up and confused. i should have learnt the consequences of such ambiguous worrying posts by now. i'm really fine. just that sometimes when there's too much on my mind, yeah.. or when i think too much, i tend to be quite negative. and it's these extreme times where i end up blogging without realising the impact of it. hope you understand.
in any case, i am still busy with sch work, dance, ivp track - even though the meet's over, i am tying up some loose ends and administrative details and considering if i should take part in it for another year. i'm hanging in here. refusing to give up. but still taking things step by step. a little laid back i would say. but at the end of the day, i will get my work done. i hope. hehe..
okay. it's the 4th day of cny but there's so much to do. why did the holidays pass so quickly!! anyway, happy lunar new year all! wishing u happiness and prosperity! (as my daddy would email his friends *cheeky grin* )
