Valentines' Day is coming! I'm totally inclined to hold a Singles, Spinsters' and SDU Party, you know, spread some love around and celebrate our dismal single statuses. Hahaha then CNY is coming as well! I crave for fatt choy, the ultimate CNY food, even more than bakkwa or pineapple tarts which are so passe! Fatt choy is THE vegetable this season!
Take 5 is this Friday and I'm really quite excited :))) Palawan Beach here I come! Playing beach volleyball, how sexy is that! I told Jiani that and she said I don't have the hot bod so its not sexy. Dang. Hahaha
Oldie is Goldie! Jay Chou- Jian Dan Ai I love everything about this song.. Jay Chou is GENIUS. Can someone in school please play this on the piano instead of the Twilight song which I hear every day at 7am plus in the morning? Tests are such a pain in my ass. This term I failed Chem Bio Econs and GP, and the only reason why I didn't fail Math is because there was no Math test to begin with. It sucks when you keep trying and you don't get the results you want. And then you are like, sigh I have to try harder and kick in all that motivation into your brain-- but when it's time to try harder, you don't try as hard as you would want to or you expect to. Like how I'm listening to songs on YouTube and not studying like I'm supposed to.
I'm just gonna regard this as a lack of sleep and the fact that there's never-ending work, but I guess I'll have to kick myself in the ass and not make stupid excuses for myself. I'm just a lazy pig and I've got to admit it. And just move towards the As. 9 months to change S to A.. I would love to tell myself A for Astrid so go for that A! But it seems like it's S for Astrid now and that's all the grades that I've been getting.
Orientation G'alvea is over! I can't believe it, it feels like O'Tiero just ended! It was really great organising this year's orientation for these few months :) From working on the Burning Thing (check out the picture!!! I'm an official fire burner) to being OGL to HH11 Gimme Gimme More to getting to know so many more people in the O'Team, it was a super super experience :)
I'm the slowest person ever but I just watched Up, my super overdue library DVD. It's amazing! I totally love it. From the Carl and Ellie growing old scene to when Russell finds Kevin the bird and the classic "I was hiding under the porch because I love you" phrase by Dug. Totally melted my heart.
It's such a great movie which has a simple theme- I mean, just a couple of human beings and a talking dog and a strange bird running around the entire time- Yet the story is so captivating and you just can't help but smile at the end of the movie :)
My favourite part is the one when Kevin appears LOL its damn cute and I keep rewinding the part when he appears, it's just too funny when it swallows Carl's stick and the helium balloon hahaha
In the A&E Yesterday night I was at the A&E dept of the hospital because my wrist blood vessels exploded. Lol! Haha, but yes, even though it seems absolutely incredulous it is true!
Earlier during volleyball we were receiving hard spikes then my blood vessel burst and I went to the clinic. The doctor said it could be a main artery that burst so I may lose blood supply and therefore lose control of my left hand. Then he said "If you see your fingers blackening and numbing, you have to go to the A&E immediately." Can you imagine how fricking scared I was?! So he wrote me a letter to go to the A&E and when I got there the doctor saw me and made me do an X-Ray.
So I watched Sharkman on the TV for damn long, seeing people get chewed up while waiting for my report. Not a very nice wait, but oh well. Then the doctor came out and asked why the film took so long, and we found out that the system was down. I took another X-Ray and again it was down. Then I took the third X-Ray, this time in a different room, and phew, this time round it was okay.
No bones broken, but the doctor concluded that my fine blood vessels had burst, my veins were injured and the soft underlying tissue was also injured. So now my wrist and hand are swollen and bruised and wrapped up in a damn thick bandage.. And I've got a sling too! Apparently it'll heal faster if I leave my hand up more... Maybe I'll tie my hand up to the ceiling.. Nahh.
My hands are damn weak. Everyone got the same hard spikes but only my hands decided to malfunction... Well at least my right hand is still okay! I have to rest for at least a week, see a hand specialist (LOL no kidding) and take a mountain of painkillers.
Well.. At least I have a nice bandage and I could always call my sling: The Singapore Sling. :)
