Viruses love me. The 'flu/cough tablet/syrup is supposed to make me real drowsy, but ironically, I am extremely awake now. It's been so long since I've been down with a serious illness, save for couple of fevers here and there. I remember the last was 2 years ago, when I came down with this horrible fever and I lost 4kg, or something like that. The thought of it kills. And now I remember why I don't like going to the doctor. It's because of that dreaded stethoscope! It always makes me feel so uncomfortable, especially when the doctor puts it on my chest. I tend to laugh too. The second reason will be the long waits before your consultation. The people in the waiting room coughing away freak me out. >_< Basically I have a throat infection, which I suspect is due to the fries I stole from diane -_-. *curse my bloody mouth* And I have this extremely blocked nose, with phlegm. The normal things. I believe I caught it from wuyue/leqiao. And I'm really sorry if anyone caught it from me, especially diane/rah because they drank from my bottle! Oops. Putting my ailment aside, today was fun. Qian Yu was superb in her competition, I tell you! She even received special commendation from the judge, saying she's a natural in the hosting arena. We are all so goddamn proud of her =D Although she received the consolation prize [$80], I think she deserved first. She only lost out as she did not have the accent/pronunciation that the judges like. Her script was not too bad, about "pollution" of the chinese language. You know, the lors and lahs and stuff like that. Personally, I felt the winner didn't really do very well. He forgot parts of his lines, and he kept swaying on stage. And I guess we were sort of sad VJC lost to Jurong JC. The burdens of a high profile school. LOL. We had a really nice chat in mcdonalds, about life aspirations and people.It made me think about what I really wanted in life. I've always given a shallow thought or two every month about what I like. But I've never really gone deep enough to get a sense of what I really wanted in the 80 years of my life (if I don't die of accidents or curses). For now, I think journalism is of the highest consideration. Since writing is probably the thing I like most besides singing, and I cannot imagine myself being a singer, I will probably go into that industry. And since my argumentative essays are only so-so, I expect I will do better in like, magazines and stuff. They are my love, after all. And movie reviews and stuff! Wonderful. But since I am a very fickle-minded person, I might change my views again eventually, so I am not absolutely sure about it yet. I think there are at least 10 things in life I've wanted to be before. LOL. But definitely not a doctor anymore. The boredom of the job. -_- We talked also about people, and cliques and stuff. Actually I realised that there are indeed people in class whom I dislike, but not to the extent of hatred, yet. But I can't say out who they are, it's very politically incorrect. Although I expect everyone will know, right? LOL. Even though our class is obviously cliquish, we still maintain healthy relationships with people outside of our cliques. Which is a good thing. That's probably what I like most about our class. Things that made me happy today/yesterday: > Shopping at orchard > Watching the competition > Gossiping/casual chat > Cancellation of jap club booth > Prospect of having the day off on Monday Still thinking about the last bit though. Not sure if I would like to miss lessons and stuff, and especially since we are in need of a xiao pin rehearsal. Gah. Blabberings of a confused 15-year-old girl. I love cliches.
