currently, i am in esplanade lib's cafe, drinking a strawberry smoothie, using the internet (but it's very slow so tumblr is not an option D:), attempting to write my recital notes, and silently hoping that the person beside me would go off soon so i can use the power plug. we came at the same time, and there was only one available plug. he was clever. he put in the plug first before buying a drink, so obviously, he won the fight. ):
-
anyway, the strawberry smoothie is really nice! (: it's made of real strawberries, and nothing else! :D just pure strawberries and ice. and so i realised, this drink must be consumed slowly, because you need to wait for the ice to melt before you drink cold water with strawberries. if you do not wait for the ice to melt, then you'd be trying very hard to drink the strawberries but you can't cos they're too solid. then again, if you wait too long before you drink, all the ice would've melted and you can't really taste the strawberries in this concoction.
love's like that isn't it? or rather, maintaining a r/s is somehow like this. not too fast and not too slow, it must be carefully maintained. (:

my star
today, i almost lost my star. and i freaked out for a good 15 minutes.
this star, is just an ordinary star. but it's a very special star to me and i cannot lose it. it was given to me by d, and it was purchased in nj's bookshop, at only $1. haha yes it sounds a bit hilarious that a $1 star keychain can mean so much to me. but it was probably the very first gift that d spontaneously bought for me - i.e., he bought in on the spur of the moment, just because i said i wanted it.
i went to take 'thank you notes' for one of the pri 4 classes so i walked briskly to the music room (running was banned by mummy) and walked briskly back to the sci lab where i was supposed to invigilate them for their sci practical. i didn't notice when my star dropped, but after letting the class settle down and i went to retrieve my pencilbox, i realised my missing star. my heart almost skipped a beat and the first thought that came to my mind was, "我要疯了."
so i freaked out for 15 mins. throughout that 15 mins i kept contemplating running arnd the school to look for it and leave the children outside the sci lab since they were not making a lot of noise. but i abandoned that thought after i decided that i should just accept it if it was lost. i came to the believe that if i lose something, i'll gain something. and being optimistic, i strongly believed at that point in time that if i lose something, i'll gain much more. so i stayed calm for 2 hours, while sitting through 2 classes of sci practical.
when i finally had a break, i attempted to look for my star, retracing my steps from the sci lab to the music room. i didn't have much hopes, but it's just a half-hearted attempt. but once i opened the music room door and my gaze shifted to the cupboards on the right, i saw a silvery shiny star that was MY STAR! :D i was so elated at that moment.
and this is the end of my random post.

犀利人妻 养成计划
很好看的一本书。它一点都不肤浅，一点都不是偶像剧的题材！是的，犀利人妻的确是个偶像剧，但它所诉说的故事，却是发生在我们真实生活的点点滴滴。
或许我还没有到达那个年龄。我还年轻，还不晓得失去和得到的滋味。尤其在情场上，我其实很幸福，找到了一个真心爱了我五年，而还继续爱着的男朋友。我不能够完全体会书中作者想要表达的，但一部分，我深深的感受到一种共鸣。
这本书也让我开始思考一些问题。爱情，说穿了只是一个跟时间赛跑的游戏。但，时间是永远不会被打败的。爱情，不可能是完美的，一定会有污迹，一定会有伤痕。时间能够冲淡这一切，但不能完全抹掉。可是，人们（尤其是女人）往往对爱情有一种憧憬，会渴望一段完美无瑕的恋爱。希望能够长长久久，白头到老。不过，人生是残酷的，时间是残酷的，爱情，也是残酷的。
目前的我，还在爱河里面。还在渴望着一段恋爱能够到永远。但我希望，如果有一天，假设真的有那么一天，我会再度翻开这本书，从它身上学到人生的一课。或许到了那个时候，我会有不同的领悟。

-
it was a very last minute arrangement, my appointment as a music relief tcher. i'm currently at mummy's school taking over the music teacher's entire periods cos she has some family issues to settle. taking over for 3 weeks, right up to the day i start ntu lessons. was excited at first, then became quite reluctant bcos i realised it took up a lot of my personal time, especially mondays, when d is booking out. but anw, i've taken up this responsibility so i must pull through. and i've finished a week! (friday no lessons) so 2 more weeks to go! :D
butttttttt, the counting down to the end of my teaching also means the counting down to the end of my holidays D: I DON'T WANT HOLIDAYS TO END. but it's quite ironical. 有时觉得在读书的时候比较有活着的感觉。当你太悠闲，没有事情做的时候，仿佛像死了一样。
