you know, i just love this space. from the photo above to the music to the colours to the words. don't get me wrong. i'm far from eloquent with a limited lexicon and my photography skills are probably in want and the music must seem so yesterday and my design skills are....what design skills. but all this together, it's just so...me. =)

well, if you really know me, at least the way i know me, then you'll understand.

in a few hours, i'll be back at shokudo. i'm definitely going for the sashimi and the bacon-wrapped asparagus. and i'll probably try something new. aaargh, what a headache. can't decide.

and oh yes, in a few hours, i'll be done with my final exam of my smu life. studying for cognitive psychology is pretty funny because in a way, you are kind of studying about how your mind absorbs, retains and processes things. so technically, it's like studying about how to study and then taking an exam on it. seriously, you have topics like memory, problem solving, reasoning and decision making....

ah, can't wait can't wait. to get round to serious business. like the beach holiday i've been drooling over. like playing ALOT of tennis. like going back to beautifying my purple room. like cooking. like reading storybook after storybook. like resuming my kampung cycling-swimming regime. like learning to do things like meditating, cooking (new stuff) and brushing up on my video editting. like spending more time with people i care about. like splashing some colours on the canvas lying beside my bed (papa et al. gave me a paint set, complete with easel and all for my birthday =D and yes, too much research proposing and psychology mugging has left the habit of going so-and-so et al firmly ingrained in me, ah my education!). and sooooo much more. and yea, i guess looking for a job as well.

ok i'm getting incoherent and carried away. and as i say this, i start to think about something i read in my language chapter for cog psych. well, this Grice fellow stated that there were 4 maxims for a conversation. quantity (keep it short and sweet), quality (self-explanatory), relevant (keep to the topic) and manner (to communicate in an orderly, coherent fashion). and as i appear to be failing to meet all 4, it's time to end this post. goodnight.

p.s. thank you for the surprise chocolates, mr pope groupie. you really learn fast (from papa M). chocolates are the cure and opium for all illnesses and dire circumstances. since i started with a smile, i shall end with one too, though that doesn't make sense. nothing does in this post. =)
