hark! the herald angels sing

Mellow Christmas this year... Spent Eve dining with 'rents and their visiting friends eating overpriced hawker food. When you're drinking teh peng renamed as teh ice and priced at $5.50 you know you're clearly in a restaurant catered for tourists.

Mum irritated me when she counted the number of job rejections I've received thus far versus the ongoing applications. I'm pretty happy with what I've got, but obviously the greedy part of me wants to be able to proceed into the next stage of the London job interview. My ex-boss said that I 'can try, but need a lucky break'. Considering how many unlucky breaks I've had so far in terms of career, I am happily presuming that the lucky one will come soon. Just to be on the safe side though, I spent half the time in church praying a personal prayer.

I am hoping the combined effort of luck and a blessing from above will do it.

And I've decided to give myself a Christmas present that doesn't inflict pain on my purse this year: a new blog!

Have 'moved' (sans the baggage of old posts) to wordpress.com.

You can find my blog in the here and now!

grades schmades

So the final grades were released recently. When I first started this term, I kind of knew I was screwed. I wasn't paying that much attention to the subjects. Couldn't really follow the classes (either that or I refused to follow, browsing Facebook or online shops instead).

I knew and predicted at least 2 of the subjects this term would bring down my cumulative GPA.

As the 'View my grades' page on OASIS was loading I half-covered my face and prepared to wince... Those 2 subjects pulled up my GPA.

In fact, my overall performance is such that my cumulative GPA has increased! Wheee...

Lessons learned:
1. The best projects are the ones with the least meetings
2. Reading a lot of shit before exams pays off
3. I am not as dumb as I thought I was

this year, a merry christmas

As I sit,
what might have been
what has been
what was
what has become
spatter like flecks of blood against my window.

The sky has torn into two. It has
cracked, broken like a heart
someone out there is crying, the howls turning into
vortex, whirlwinds
blowing the tears my way
until my cheeks are wet and salty.

The aches of the world, I felt
confused with my broken soul
tossed aside, punctured like a wound
from the stare you didn't give.

It's new, this
paralysing pain.
It curdles my blood,
freezes my skin,
explodes in my head.

As I sit
I wish a sad, little, wistful, hopeful,
useless, pointless
christmas wish:
let me in.

i am failing my engrish test

I can't believe I typed 'invited' instead of 'invented' for the title of the previous blog entry. I must be dumber than I thought!
