Happy Birthday November People! (:
Li Xin Bei whom I secretly stalked and surprised, super delayed because WOMAN got home at happening twilight time hahaha. (:
My MUMMY (: Whom I got Japanese cheesecake, cookies, and Chinese takeaway for dinner that night.
FTJ (: Even though technically I didn't do much but I HOPE he has a good birthday tomorrow!
Alright, this was a fabulous weekend aye. In celebration of the end of my deadlines (even though this also means exams are coming BUTTTT heck) I er, didn't study this week haha :/ In fact, this week I was rather elated because:
1) End of many tutorials WOO which also means it will FORCE me to study during break, instead of walking aimlessly around campus and browsing num slippers omg
2) No more Malay ad hoc projeks! Yay
3) I watched cloudy with a chance of meatballs with Becks Erika and Friend. Which was rather unexpectedly good. Because of the underlying themes of parental acceptance, a la Enemy of the People and cute gummy bears! FOOD MOVIE, I like.
4) I went for CG! Very fruitful sharing PLUS i got a ride home too.
5) I went for FUEL! Heart AVERYBAHDEE there, including the dinner at heartland shop with Salameh and Eun and Fran (:
Today I woke up at an ungodly hour and took the slowest bus on earth to sekolah for ushering. Event? KUMON HONOURS ROLL. Haha, adorable children including the boy whose teeth was momentarily stuck in the zip that he was chewing on. Ended earlier than I thought, so went to meet Mr Foo and I seriously didn't know what we were both doing after our exhausting walking intensive week but we walked so much because Subway was crowded ttm haha, omg I think my pedometer would have reset a couple of times la.
Today was good (:
And of course, the only time I chose to sleep in for awhile during the weekend, and I can't because guess what - the ampitheatre decides to host some PERCUSSIONS performance with exceptionally LOUD and BOOMZ guys screaming their hearts out like merantau warriors so I woke up very grumpy.
K, Imma go grab some grub now before I hit the shit that is lit. Haha.

I step into the darkness, or else the light.
I trudge like a man along a path, not knowing where he is going.
Events that stand for something else.
After an overload of ambiguity in unsalvagable papers, I am now saturated with PS and EN content - a weekend burnt doing what I'm relegated to for the rest of my uni life. I realise I didn't submit my turnitin receipt today, I am so smart sometimes which means I gotta resubmit tomorrow after lecture.
Entirely exhuasted I kid you not - an entire week of late nights past 1am, and full days in school.
Freedom freedom, but in its limited enjoyment for it signals the coming of bloody exams.
I yearn to cycle and release colourful balloons into the air, the way a caged bird yearns for its flight of fancy. Pick strawberries from the fields of forever, blow dandelions to tell time, a tea party with Alice in Wonderland and hide and seek with Amelia Jane. To the soundtrack of Trading Yesterday. December 4th, come quick I say.
That's the weekend for you

yuppie sandwich at yuppie hangouts
moist nutella mini cupcakesAlbeit my willpower to get started on my essays, weekend was beautifully burnt with only 48 hours to live. Fuel absence third time in a row, I felt pretty sad because meeting ended later than I thought. Perked up when I saw FBF at the MRT - managed to catch a glimpse of the army boys for awhile as well. 2 movies in 1 day - one for the family and one for the friend. I'm only going to start on my Lit right after this post, without any Bejeweled distractions hopefully - Cheryl really helped me loads on getting my points right tgtg. I am seriously so tired, ttm running on energy deficits and sleep is inviting, and yet I cannot because I have so, much, work.
I live only for the weekends. Crazy week is finally over, Malay Test SE deadline Malay skit. Read WTFB fin, watched Hee Row She Maa fin, now just waiting for crazy Monday-Wed to be over before I can cut me some slack.
Next weekend is going to be awfully busy as well -I seriously hope I didn't sign up for ushering on an inconvenient day again.
You know you have the BEST best friend in the world, when she says she wants to talk to you about something serious , and then you realise the something serious isn't even about her, but about how to help another friend.
TGFF - Thank God for Fishy (((:
"I would rather just maybe you and I go watch a movie and eat lunch. Simple"
Just made me realise that it must have been pretty out of your way to do what you did last year - and I'm just feeling very grateful and touched. (:
Reminder to self: STOP SIGNING UP FOR SO MANY THINGS! Advent, Carolling, Standard Chartered(?)
Things to Do: Contact catering, keep track of tutoring lessons, get started on HMA and SEreadings. STOP SKIPPING MEALS.

It's that indescribable feeling, that instantenous connection, the confluence of two minds on a common topic. The flash of a smile, the friendly wave, to the boy seated at the lonely corner pretending to be absorbed in his books. To watch him, bagpack as companion, tread the steps a solitary figure, the wish for outreach. To break the ice, crack the cold slippery surface to the crystalline waters below - a joyous greeting, crooked teeth awkward arms heavy bag.
To transcend that barier of self-sufficient suppposedness, the facade of cool beneath which a lost child yearns for easy conversations. Memory flashbacks of the tiny frame pushed around by sneering schoolmates, distant laughs and collision of time.
Back.
Back to now, here the present. Approach gentle calm like the breeze.
Hi.
there's something in your eyes

Today I caught up with an old friend whom I have neglected since A levels, and he mentioned how I'm still the same cheerful cold jokes person over the phone. Somehow, everyone says I haven't changed one bit - Shan said that when I told her about my laptop called Harry Potter (HP), JC classmates think I'm still forgetful and lose my things like Little Bo Peep, and now old friend too.
Maybe, change is a good thing too. Everyone's changing these days anyway.
I liked today's sermon mit was fiery and emotional and on What Makes A Christian Christian. Whenever I listen to anything religious nowadays I feel like I'm listening to it from two perspectives - one being the HolyMoley Yes Yes This Is Good I should do it more often, but then the other part of me stands detached and says, Religion is just another opiate of the masses. I'm such a hypocrite sometimes.
Shrug. I saw a really hot and toned girl yesterday btw, I feel motivated to exercise now aha.
keep running running and running running.

This is Jocelyn. See Jocelyn Run. Run, run, Jocelyn. Run, as fast as you can.
This week was a race in itself, onslaught of old deadlines and creeping in of the new assignments. Uni, thy name is Crazy. Basically was burnt on driving, going to school early on a late day, staying back during early days, screwing up my eating habits again. Ushering was pretty interesting I got to see Najip Ali in person but I'm so sad because nobody else was as excitable as I was. But I'm always so excitable hmm. I had a truckload of halal food after the event I was so happy I even offered the taxi uncle one but he refused and in the end charged me a few cents less haha. I also gave it to the tutee's mom but then now I realise maybe she's vegetarian and can't consume it smackhead gosh.
Last PS tutorial I was kinda sad, because I was finally warming up to the girls in class and starting to open my mouth - well good times do come to an end. Tuts are getting more cozy because you start seeing people around school but of course nothing beats the CJ feeling of really truly knowing the person you waved at. Lit is insane, I can't keep up with the readings and they always give essays at such short notice and the books are always on loan HMPH.
I was feeling rather unholy because I had to skip a few sessions and I didn't get to Fuel either. Thank goodness God was nice to me today, after I ran my first 10km marathon SO PROUD OF MYSELF AND THE OG. (: Of course I chose to be malas and walked so much haha, but now I still can feel the heat emanating from my legs it's almost as if I just did Thaipusam fire walking.
I'm getting quite overwhelmed seeing all the inbox flooded with Advent Things To Do - I hope God stands by me and shows the way for a lost sheep like myself.
Looking forward to a hopefully less hectic week with some overdue meetups and well deserved rest - projeks go away!
Freedom

There is nothing quite as liberating as striking off an item on a to-do list.
Blessed are who are free, they shall have a peaceful Sunday.
High opportunity cost though, of skipping house visits ):
