I have been away from my blog for a very long time. This is because i have been out till late at night. Ok on saturday i didn't really do much until i left my house in the afternoon to watch ROD at my friend's house. Cos my comp is too lousy as the audio and video do not run at the same speed. After that i went to Zouk. Enough said. I went home at like 3am. Sunday i woke up for church at 6.30am before returning to sleep at 8.30am. No prizes for guessing y i needed sleep. I had a headache too... haha... a reconaissance trip ended on a high. Then i woke up at 1pm to find out that i should have headed back to RJ earlier in the morning. And so i rushed down but instead of meeting up with the scum, i ended up abandoning them *sorry guys* cos there were so many people i have not talked to for such a long time... Eugene got into Harvard.... Wah im so envious, reminds me of the Wall Street Journal Article. Then i finished ROD at my friends house. Sorry for taking so long but my comp really sux. And my parents refuse to get a new one. Today was one of absolute boredom, HRM is like some stupid Psychology Module and its very boring. Went to swim before borrowing 4 nice books from AMk library... A Passage to India, Zorba the Greek, Memoirs of an Infantry Officer & The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch... hopefully i can finish them before i venture onto other books.
I read a Carcinogenic Blogpost that got me particularly irritated.
I overheard somebody insinuating the other day that bloggers are publicity/attention whores. So if I'm a exhibitionist of sorts aka publicity/attention whore, what makes you (or that somebody whom, I must think, is a closet blog-reader) -- a patron?
I am irritated because of what somebody said to me today. something about my swimming. Look. A blog is a diary that i feel generous enough to share with my friends and update them about the things in my life. It may not be for medfac people only thus do not presume to take my generosity for granted. I am happy that i have managed to swim so many laps and i treat it as a personal milestone thus i post in on my blog. I'm not angry with the person who said this to me but more with the people who have told him about it. I don't think it makes for very interesting gossip but i guess if such gossip is spread it can surely only be with negative intent. ie. I'm trying to show off. I don't even need to lift a finger to gain publicity. Wow. I'm so famous. or infamous. To those people who read my blog to just spread more foul stuff, in chinese we have a saying, Rumours end with the wise. I hope intelligence = wise in medfac. Though i can predict, this is most likely to be wrong. So I'm angry and be forewarned. If you dare leave a comment in my comments box... then put your names even if you don't know me. Don't put Anon. I hate such cowards. I am angry. Not at Anon tho. This is just a side statement. in the context its M but i know i have SM so i guess that settles the point
Thanks Char... you have at least made me a little happier. Thanks so much... When's your Exams? Get me a vial of Scotland water... Or a kilt haha!
