HORROR OF HORRORS
Thursday, July 26, 2007

Its 9am.
I was on the way to a tutorial class, when i felt hunger pangs.
As i was passing by the foodcourt, or if you would like, a canteen, i decided to spare 5 mins of my time to go buy some nuggets.
I then sat down on one of the 2 seater tables, put my Corporate Finance textbook on it, with my bag on top of my beloved purple book.
I enjoyed by nuggets, then laboured my way through the stairs, and reached the classroom.
Lesson started at 9.15am, and i started paying attention to what was being taught.

at 11am, lessons stopped.
i THOUGHT my CF book was underneath the table.
i wanted to take it along with me to my CF class.
i felt for its cold and somewhat soothing touch.
I WAS WRONG.
I FELT THE COLD BLAST OF WIND FROM THE AIR-CONDITIONER UNDER THE TABLE.

HORROR OF HORRORS!
MY CF TEXTBOOK IS GONE!

and it took me some 2 hours to REALISE IT.
somehow i forgotten about the CF textbook.
and so, i rushed down to the canteen, hoping that the book is still there, even though i know its probably a lost cause.
its really gone.
i was somewhat sad, but somewhat expected this scenario.

i thought i'd better do some asking around.
wee. 2 cleaner aunties were working together closeby, clearing the plates that we students leave behind.

"Auntie, ni you mei you kan dao yi ben zi se de shu?"
"You. dan shi wor mei you jian qi lai. ying wei wor yi wei shi shue sen de suo yi mei you na."
diao.
yeah, i was asking her if she had seen a purple coloured book infront of the nasi padang stall.
she said yes, but didnt pick it up, thinking that students sometime leave belongings behind to reserve a seat or something.
and she added that the book is expensive.
she made sense. sort of adding salt to my open wound. but yes. it was, is, and WILL BE expensive if i were to buy it again.

i knew that it was hopeless. but i just wanted to try.
so i went to the girl sitting near the table where i last parted with my CF book, and i expected her answer, no.
i went to the SB office. and NO. ITS NOT THERE!

ARGH.
wtf. next week is the last week of sch, following which is the study week, THEN EXAM WEEK.
AND I LOST IT NOW.

o well, i think i'd do better to borrow a copy from the library and photocopy the relevant pages inwhich the tutorial questions are contained, than to pin my hope on something as idealistic as someone would take the trouble to return my precious.

ohh...my precious...

my precious...

my PRECIOUS!

the finale of harry potter...
Tuesday, July 24, 2007

Harry Potter, the final installment of the series, The Deathly Hallows, is one book that i finished reading the fastest.
I was mesmerized for 2 days, starting yesterday at 2pm when i bought it, till 10mins ago, when i finished it.
600 odds pages.
a fitting end to the series.
its also, an end of a chapter of my life.

sad? yes, certainly.
there are no more harry potter books.
nothing more to expect.
but what i can say is: the legacy of Harry Potter would never die. The fan fiction and healthy discussions would carry on and spill over the many years to come.

On a less philosophical note,
i refused to go online before i finished my book.
i also refused to read the newspapers because it says "Spoiler Alert".
in short, im detached from the real world.

but not now.
dota would continue.
msn would see me online.
and the weary cycle of routine life begins.

It was a lethargic day for me.
I woke at 12, thinking about the outing later with my friends.

I didnt feel like going.
That was 2 plus.

Should i tell saad that im not joining them?
that was 3 plus.

I think i ask nisa if shes going, if she not going then i not going.
but she replied yes.

Went to play dotA.

then about 5 plus,
went for a jog.

came back slack.

then suddenly, i feel not sian-ed.

then took a shower, wah, feel so fresh.
then chionged out to bugis to have chicken bryani with poly mates.

thats the end of a random and nonsensical post.
