Hey guys, just to tell you that I've been doing more of my writing on multiply.
rosesinthevalley.multiply.com.
Journal entries are all restricted to those on my friends list, so add me, if you wanna continue reading. (:
I'll still post occasional updates in here, but I guess its mostly multiply, for now. More privacy, more friends updating there, and well, I just prefer the interface. (:

Day one of my September holidays.
Finished revising two chapters of stuff. Have another five to go. And that's before I can start studying (read: memorising) for my four tests. *shrill shriek*
Postponed cutting hair with WL til Thursday because she had an emergency proj meeting. Postponed meeting up for dinner with Yongyi et al, he's got to go back to camp for some stuff.
Sigh.
I don't wanna do any more work.
And to further complicate matters, the cracks are beginning to resurface again. The same old problems stemming from the same old reasons are causing the same old heartaches.
When will this end?
And is it really worth it?
*slumps dejectedly*

Am updating from the computer lab again. Just finished a physiology practical, it was really interesting, simulating hormonal experiments on rats. And a huge plus is that none of them are unnecessarily killed! (: But yes, the program is really cool! We could inject different rats with different hormones, to see the different effects they had. Even did one on how estrogen enlarged the uterus of a rat. It was just really funny and COOL to weigh the uterus -it had a uterine body and two uterus horns! There was even a "tare" function on the weighing machine. Haha! And there was a test-tube washer and vortex-er too. *grin* Super super cool stuff. I wish I could design such programs, it's so much more fun than working in the real lab. Haha.
It was such a drag to come back to my grandmother's place on Sunday. I do like staying there, but its simply not home. Dunno how to explain, but I think those in my position would understand. (:
Kane took half day off and we went to the Army Open House yesterday. Was rather fun! I finally got to see and "experience" his world (well, not experience experience, but at least I got to see what army life was like. And there were so many cool gadgets!). I mean, its an entirely different existence altogether. There was this Major? in his mid-40s who shared a bit with us. And he, along with some other people there, also said that girlfriends have to be understanding when their boyfriends' plans are spoilt etc, when unexpected things crop up, when they have to go overseas etc...
He didn't say anything I didn't already know, but it just emphasized? the difficulties Kane sometimes has. The major said he knew that it was hard maintaining a relationship when the guy was in army, because his wife and him also went through rough patches. Stuff like that. I don't know how to explain how I feel, but its just heartening to know that other people have been through (and had the exact same arguments! Haha!) the same things as we have/ are going through now. (:
Anyways yes! I'm sorry for updating so sporadically and lengthly (getting influenced by Lianne! q:), but I don't have internet access at my grandma's place; and the occasions when I do have time to get online in school, I have to download notes and research for projects etc. Its seldom I've the time to surf at my own leisure. So yeah...
Got a test on Thurs. Eep. And a make-up lecture on Saturday morning. *wails* And I was so looking forward to going home on Friday night, too! Gah. At least its the September break next week, and I'll finally have time to catch up. Bah. I've a long long way to go.
Alrighty, going off soon! I want a nap badly. (:

Haha! I'm surfing from the comfort of my room again! But this time around, the difference is that I'm uhhh.. Leaching? from somebody elses connection. Oops. Now that I've said that, I'm not quite sure if I ought to post this entry after all. *starts to feel a little guilty* But I just turned on my laptop when I got back and immediately the Airport detected a wireless connection, so I tried surfing. And I could! *grin* Was wondering why, cos the Starhub MaxOnline thing we just signed up for isn't a wireless networking plan (and my sister's already surfing on the home computer so I can't log on). Checked the network and whoa, there are three networks available for me to connect to.
Haha. I suppose I shouldn't feel bad, should I? I'm not causing them any harm; its not my "problem" if they choose not to have a connecting password, right? Or am I just finding excuses for myself? Oops.
Anyways. I really need a break. Think I'll declare tomorrow a work-free day! Cannot tahan already. ): Revised Receptor-mediated endocytosis just now, from a lecture TWO weeks ago, and I still have another 2 more of last weeks lectures to go through. Not to mention start studying (keyword: start) for Thursday's test. AHHHHH. But Kane was sweet, he came over in the morning to keep me company as I studied, and to help set up my home computer's broadband (the Starhub guy set up my Powerbook's connection). Though he ended up reading (and sleeping) and listening to me talk most of the time instead, haha. But still. *smiles*
Argh. So many things to do, so little time. Bleh!

Kane's back! :D
I've been spending as much time as I can with him, ignoring tutorials, revision, what have you. Even left a stats prac halfway (well, I didn't pay attention to the impromptu lecture because listening to him complicates matters a whole lot more! And I didn't see the point in staying just to do my tutorial; I could do it some other time on my own.) just so I could meet him.
Don't know how to explain this; I sort of feel like now he's back, I have to spend as much time with him as possible, cos he'll leave very soon. Must make full use of the time we have together lah. But its not rational, this feeling, because he won't be going away anymore. Well, not this year, anyways.
And its a little weird too, I've "gotten used" (if that's the word to use) to him being gone, I've gotten used to not seeing him for so long that its a little awkward having him around again. I mean, when he was in Thailand, I used to always make plans with other people, and just be independent, doing my own stuff in my own time, when I wanted to. And now, those plans will include him too, and there'll be less time for everyone else. Not that I mind, not that I don't want to, of course. Its just.. Oh, I suppose I need some time to get used to having him back again.
But I'm glad he's here!(:

Am typing this from the school comp lab, in the middle of a torturous Stats prac. *bleh* Two hours has slowly creeped by and there's still one more to go! ):
Was introduced into the world of diamonds yesterday. By Elynn! *points accusing finger* Haha. Though to be honest, I was the one who asked her along for her expert opinon. q: And she bought a ring and a pendant, so she's blaming me! Heh. Anyways yes, after dithering over it for so many months, I finally got me a pair of diamond studs. (: They're so shiny and pretty and I like them so!
Granted, they cost more than my $95 "Molecular Biology of the Cell" textbook, which I very nearly didn't buy. Heart still pain man, after finally getting it just now. And its not even hard cover! ): Oh wells. Heard from seniors that this is THE book to buy, and apparently it covers most topics, so I'm really hoping its worth the money.
Anyways ya. Told Kane last night that I didn't think I'd have enough money to buy the textbook after getting the earrings, and he was like, "Dear! How can you buy something thats so much smaller and cost more than something you need?" *looks sheepishly down at feet and shuffles them* But I realllyyy wanted them.. They're my advanced advanced birthday gift to myself. Haha. *nods firmly* I forsee this will be an expensive habit in the future! q; Though of course not within reason, I won't spend all my savings on jewellry; its just that I'll be more inclined to want to buy diamonds from now on. Haha.
(:
Can't believe I feel more xin tong about buying the textbook than the earrings! I'm a bad girl! ):

I teared when Khorkina lost the gold medal.
):
Her ethereal grace and fludity of movements was breath-taking, and I'm just so sad she didn't get to go out with a major bang.
The 2008 Olympics won't be the same without her.
"She silenced the arena when she did the uneven bars. She flips and twists between the bar with dizzying ease, moving so quickly she looks more like a ballerina than a gymnast. And her height - at 5-5, she towers above her fellow gymnasts - makes the tricks seem even more spectacular, a physiological marvel."
And to think stupid Mediacorp broadcast the table-tennis match in place of the gymnastics finals. Pah!
