A merry merry New Year
This is a blog, right?
It seems rather dead - like the crickets have been singing merrily here for a while. I guess this post *stamps mark* will take away the stigma of long-un-updated blog.
Welcome to the New Year, folks!
Admittedly, it's not the new year yet as I type this out; but the last day of the old year. Three cheers. I wonder how badly people are going to be partying tonight. But this is a collective blog - hence, let's talk about collective things. Serious things first.
School's in again for Reading starting January the second. Ah, there goes our late nights and mornings! Here come the various grumblings that come hand-in-hand with our days at law school!
Don't you hear the heavy trudging of feet and terrible groans from all of us? It's Asia Cafe again, or Cabana (let's flip a coin), the hot sun, tutorials and written work, and library. Bah!
Happy things.
The new year is often something people feel will bring a difference in their lives. It's like a new pair of shoes or a new pen - which will change the way your feet feel when you walk, or the way your handwriting looks when you write - same old thing but with the conscious feeling that something new has taken the place of the old. Ah, let's give ourselves a check and see how long we'll write '2007' instead of '2008' whenever the date needs writing.
And let's see how we stick to the new year's resolutions.
For a student, I imagine the need to resolve to study harder, watch less tv, and follow your timetable!
Or sleep less.
Or stop studying on the bed. Or, less Facebooking (!???!!).
And the list goes on and on.
For tonight, let's just count down the hours, minutes and seconds.
Happy New Year, Folks!!
Let the fireworks explode!

Oh, happenings. What else? HAPPY HOLIDAYS
It's my turn, and it's now or never.
I ain't got hols forever.
I just wanna blog while I got time,
& mood, minus guilt.
(Oh well. Where dya think this comes from?)
Saturday today, and inspiration, the zest of life, the realisation that the holidays have descended upon us, 3 weeks in succession - is truly, fully digestible.
Okay, i am making a mountain out of a molehill, you may think - but it's true that when you've worked harder than a dog for two and a little over months - the playing hard is like a windfall.
And I will give you 'my take' (quote unqoute Mr Joseph) on yesterday.
But first of all, let us give a big round of applause to out most devoted stylist of this blog - Sha-Lene!!
* Clap Clap Clap Clap*
There.
I'm sorry for the no-photo show this time, because - the USB cable is MIA.
Never mind.
You'll just have to bear with it - the USB cable, I mean.
Taylor's Open Day was running full blast yesterday. They had people selling Nestle (cornflakes going for five bucks), people handing out V-I-C-O (remember the advert?) and a bored guy beckoning towards the Nescafe. Oh man. Talk about moodless.
It was raining, and the skies were grey, that shouldn't put one off.
It was exhilarating because yesterday was the last day of college! I mean university. Law school. And after Equity and Trusts tutorial, it was just that - nada, nothing to think about except what to do with your time.
And the rain poured. I was, and had been - eyeing the Nescafe van before the tutorial - and nobody, mind you NOBODY was interested in going down with me to get a fix of it.
And then, when we finally did get down there, Rachel was sipping just as hard as me.
Next scene: In the darkness of LT7
Judge John Deed is not a menacing fellow. In fact, he's a jolly kind one. And a just one. And I might mention, a bit of a ladies' man.
Now who would have thought that of a judge?
So straight and serious.
(Most of em are men).
For all their law and order. And wigs.
We are sitting in the darkness, and suddenly, Mei Chieng wants her bag.
She's sitting in front, while her bag is on the table behind her.
Picture LT7. Stairs of seating. One table higher, one step up.
She reaches for her bag, and doesn't see the coffee cup beside it in the darkness - and whoosh, over it goes.
The table is chocolate brown.
How to clean it up?
Subie dumps her newspaper upon the offending stain.
Mei Chieng signals apologies in the dark.
We resume watching.
Later: Sunway Pyramid
Ah, the parking. The green lights marking empty lots and the red ones - occupied - intrigued us. We even waited for a it after the car emptied the lot for us to move in - simply to see whether the red would turn green.
And it did!!!
Bingo.
Sha-Lene's already talked about the movie we watched - which we rushed through lunch for.
After we called it a day for the movie, everything moved more quickly. The end drops on us, and we were just going back. In Tsu Ming's car.
Rolling, rolling, rolling in the traffic jam.
Tsu Ming does not believe in the law of attraction. And Faan Jin believes in flying cars. So when there is a traffic jam, all we have to do is not think anymore about it (lest it get worse) and try to catch a flying car instead.
Yeah baby, yeah.
It's the end of school days, after all.
Muaxxxxx.

Don't blame me for how depressingly dreary this sounds
Heya people.
Sha-Lene created this blog for the purposes of all our frantic doings - in law school and out of it - so I gather that it would be just as well that I put something long on the screen when it gets accessed.
So how has the weekend been?
Rush, rush, rush, rush on tutorials. After a round of badminton on Friday - in which I managed to hit a shuttlecock on top of the ledge (or whatever you call it) - but these things happen.
No matter which way you want to look at it.
And then, I guess I had sleep. Next week is the hols, and that is what we, law students, are all aiming our gleaming greedy eyes at - for loads of empty time.
But even then, we would still have to prepare for bla bla bla, and bla of work - which seemingly never ends.
Second December as I write this, which signals the closeness of the end of year 2007. People, start making your new year resolutions, and dieting in order to binge on Christmas pudding and New Year goodies.
Also, gotta drive safely.
But in the meantime, gotta lose some more sleep on written work and tutorials.
That's working like a dog for ya.
*Grumbles* The timing on this post is all wrong
