Life is one big irony, ya? My buddy, Rose is a classic case of the "shooting your own foot" syndrome. I met up with this lovely friend after months to collect her wedding ring and it's still sad to see her settling down. She found a great guy (I really think so) but it seems kinda early to be married at 23. Maybe she is over the hill according to the Malay culture but then again, who is to say if she has had the luck to find her The One? I am very happy for her but unfortunately, I guess I might miss her wedding later this year. I missed her graduation, her engagement and probably her wedding too if I keep scooting overseas. I might be in Kenya when she has her first child too. Oh man, I must suck as a friend. Then again, she said she owes me 5 birthday presents so it's all ok. But I shall be missing in all her lovely pictures of important days. *sigh*

I just wonder what is wrong with me; I don't seem to have the appropriate sense of emergency. I do panic over my exams and meeting project deadlines. BUT attending my graduation ceremony? I don't give a hoot. I can skip it with all my care and not regret it. There are friends who take thousands of pictures for certain events and I wouldn't bother. Maybe one or 2 is alright but I would feel that my memory is MINE entirely so I shall happily store in it my own head. That's terrible isn't it? What happens when I get dementia or amnesia or something? If everyone in the past had my kind of mentality, History won't thrive.

Anyway, my main problem now is my graduation. I really can't bother with it. There are thousands trying to make it into NUS and I am sorry, but I really dislike the place. The place plain sucks. It doesn't challenge me; it bores me and the entire admin system is troublesome. I don't think many people are that intelligent in NUS either. There are a handful of geniuses but most other people are only hardworking. I can't believe my tertiary education was just all that. I was so uninspired by the place I didn't bother to work hard. Yes, I found NUS that mediocre. Am gonna be stoned if those that failed to make it there read this but I am just stating a fact. What my classmates commented in my tutorials usually make me laugh (but of course I don't because I prefer a lower profile) so yeah...it's such an uninspiring place.

Conversations with my brother are deeper.

On a lighter note, it's really interesting how Life turns back and gives you a slap in the face when you least expect it. I really hate handsome, rich, intelligent and caring men. I do. I hate Sanada and everyone on the Men Me Likessss list. I hate tall men, athletes, men with long hair and unshaven faces. I hate men with hairy legs!! hate hate hate them! Ok, Life is welcomed to slap me in the face anytime now. Hehe.

PS: XH, I am so sorry! I forgot all about the pics! I shall try to create a couple soon.
