An outstretched hand in a pitch-black room is still nothing. A beautiful lady with a perfect body, standing naked in the pitch-black room is still nothing (provided you dont know she's there lah that is). With no light, no matter how beautiful anythg is in that room, you still cant see it. You still won't be able to appreciate it.
Likewise - No matter how well-prepared you are for an exam, or how much you've studied for it, or how sure you are that you know the material, if you didnt do well on that exam day... it all means nothing. Zip. Nada. All your hardwork down the drain. Just because of some stupid reasons you cant even explain, that made you do what you've done even though deep down you somehow know it's not the right way.
What makes things worse is when you needed to talk to somebody - anyone at all, hoping that there's someone who would just listen to anythg you wanna say, and not say or comment on it, most important of all, not judge on you - there's none at all. The only faithful companion is your shadow. Sometimes I can't help but wonder - If shadows do have a choice to be separated from oneself, would mine actually run away from me??!
Truth be told, there're actually very very few good listeners who exist. Everyone has their own problems; everyone can't stop thinking bout themselves. What's that word again - Egocentricism. Indeed. Who has the time to stop and listen to other's problems when they are so occupied bout themselves. It is quite sad, if you think about it.
Times like these - you'll find that writing is the best therapy. Correction - Blogging is the best therapy. You get to write and rant and rave bout all your thoughts and problems and there are actually people reading them. (well even if no one reads it, you're still under the impression that it's being read!) So many bloggers sprouting all over the world every single day, for one very obvious reason - everyone yearns to be heard.
Times like these, you'd feel ever so lonely. The world is a cold cold place.

Candid
So remember that week that I said I was sooo exhausted? The same week of Jeanie's bday and the spontaneous truant Wednesday? So the following pics are those of that week's Friday event - TPM Ball. 'twas quite fun, except I didnt get to enjoy myself because of my twitching left eye. too tired i think, that's why. In the end I didnt even eat much cuz the eye was terribly irritating I had to stop myself from picking up a fork and pop it out. Anyways, in all I quite enjoyed it... if only I were all well I would've enjoyed myself even more!
Picture Perfect
Us and our so-called 'prom-date's.. haha. in truth we just paired up randomly with friends who're also going alone. just for fun!! Bunch of posers we are! =)
From left: Vinod, Jean, Jess, Roy, Me, Choon.

Vinod The Intruder
i feel i talk too much sometimes. giving out too much information bout myself. too revealing. aint good... sometimes i feel like damn!
my housemate thinks im stupid but i suppose he's not all that wrong.
I have this bad habit of whipping out my books while my surrounding enviroment is having fun.
You cant blame me,these grades i obtain sem after sem dont come from the sky.
I really need to talk more,its the best way for me express whats really going on inside.
These past few weeks have been awesome.Being with Jean and Jess helps me relax and i have to admit I enjoy their company very much.Unfortunately things have been the same with vinod.I still think he's crazy and lately he's been very lazy.He thinks he's some sort of lit cum music major.He actually spent the whole night reading about Albert Camus and going through the script of Anything Else (2003).I wonder why he cant channel all that strange persistance to his studies.
*Note: Above was written by my crazy housemate Vinod (except for the italized line). Decided to keep it cuz its funny, and will be even more so years later when we look back. heh. but i trust you all to not believe anythg he said bout me ok. the guy just escaped from some mental asylum so dont expect much n cut him some slack.*
