Right now as I type this, I’m trying to freaking cut 169 words out of my essay. This is probably the worst part of writing an essay; finishing footnotes, references, amending words – so close to finishing but because of the stupid word count you just keep reading the essay over and over trying to find words to cut out. An unnecessary ‘the’, an out-of-place ‘a’, is this sentence relevant or can I sacrifice it? Sigh. Macam nak korbankan kambing. LOL. Never mind, the crabbiness is kicking in.
- The enemy knows what hurts me the most. And he knows how to use that to get to me. But I believe my Jesus is stronger than anything and with Him, I CAN break this stronghold. “He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world” (: Can’t remember the verse though.
- Sometimes Actually more like right now, I look at my life and I say, “Typical. So damn typical. This is like the story of my life or something.” And I don’t mean it in a good way.
- The Fray’s new album is goooooood. Only if you liked the previous and you like this genre of music. A personal favourite is Syndicate.
- I cannot sleep before 2 am anymore. My body clock has completely gone haywire.
- Truth to be told, as much as I want to go home, I’m a little afraid. I’m afraid to come home and find that everything has changed, people have moved on without me, awkward silences, having nothing to talk to my brothers about anymore. Little things that are going to upset me.
A headstart on what I’ve been wanting to blog about last week are these three videos. Isn’t it funny how interesting things like these always come your way when you’re rushing an assignment or you have an exam to study for and cause you to procrastinate? Okay, maybe just me then. Lol.
*IF YOU DON’T WATCH ANY OF THESE VIDEOS, JUST AT LEAST WATCH THE LAST ONE. IT IS SO SO WORTH IT.
I bet the whole world has heard of Susan Boyle by now but if you haven’t then watch this. 
And here are some touching adverts from Singapore directed by Yasmin Ahmad.
“In the end, it’s these small things that you remember. The little imperfections that make them perfect… for you.”
The thing is…. didn’t you know how I felt about you and don’t you know you’ll always mean something to me?
“I’m singing a love song over you, my child.”
Inexpressible, that’s how I feel when I am with Him. (:

I had a very fun-filled weekend and tonight I’m going to pay for it. 9 am class tomorrow morning and I’ve not done any work! I want my sleep!
1. Met a friend yesterday who’s studying in Manchester but was visiting Bristol for the weekend. We’re not the closest friends, more like family friends cos mums are friends and brothers were classmates. But I had an awesome time! Had a chance to get to know her better over lunch and it was really nice meeting someone from home – we were from the same school, same church and went to the same college so we knew the same people etc. I had a really good time. 
2. Today was the worst day ever – weather wise. The weather changed like every hour. Early in the morning it was sunny so I didn’t wear much when I went to church. Then during service it started raining and I was panicking cos I didn’t have an umbrella so I had no idea how I was going to get back. I actually started praying for the rain to stop. Lol. And it did and the sun came out and then when I was leaving, the sun was gone and it was windy (what’s new?), FREEZING and started to drizzle. My face took an hour to defrost. Then later in the evening it started snowing! Yes I’m serious. I was NOOOOO DON’T SNOW I WANT MY SUN BACK!!!! And now it’s just freezing cold. Please sun come back tomorrow.
3. Click is such a sad movie by the way. And when I was watching it with my friends last night, there was this really intense quiet moment and my friend suddenly went BOO! Let’s just say he suffered a good whacking from me for doing that. Lol.
4. I’m coming home soon! *fingers crossed* I am supposed to be back early July but hopefully everything gets sorted out smoothly and I’ll be able to leave by mid June. My exams end late May and I want to come home ASAP. But I’m going to my hall ball and I already paid for it which means I have to stay till then and I kinda wanna have a last night with my friends from hall cos I’m not staying with them next year. So yeah, I’m hoping I can sort out my housing issues quickly and come home by June. I’m excited!
5. I don’t want to be stuck here in between. I want it to end. Or go back to how it use to be. But we can’t turn back time so can we just please fast forward this part here? I rather it come to an end than for it to be how it is right now.

Is anything hiding in the sky?
If only the wind taught my feet to fly.
So maybe the clouds are a little shy,
It’s making me wonder.
Am currently still in love with Jason Reeves, you should be too.
1. If you ever need to feel alive, go outside on the wettest, coldest, windiest, most rainy and freezing day in Bristol. I trust you, the cold is so numbing till you feel it in your bones and your fingers feel non-existent. You truly feel the most alive on days like these. And of course on such a day out, you have to bring an umbrella. That’s what sane people do in the rain don’t they? Well using one takes A LOT out of you. When you see the rain in Bristol, don’t forget about the wind. Using an umbrella here would only end up with you trying to keep it up the right way. Consider yourself lucky if your umbrella doesn’t break.
2. I got myself in a sticky situation again. I’m considering taking the easy way out and running away but I need advice. Where’s mum when you need her?! (I already emailed AND texted her. Sense my panic? Lol.) And this is another one of those LOL-I-so-can’t-believe-you situations. Yes you’ll laugh when you know what I gotten myself into. I’ll blog about it if I have no chance of escaping and have to go through with it. Haha.
3. Sometimes it’s things like these that makes me wonder what’s wrong with me. I have struggled with self-esteem long enough during secondary school days and I don’t need a flashback of the past. Sigh. Just a thought.
4. And no, Mark-boy. The scratch wasn’t there before! My mum is defending my brother by telling me that the scratch on the car was there long time ago. Helloooo, I drove the car when I was home two months ago during Christmas and I don’t think I was that blur to not notice a scratch on the car. I can’t believe mum is on your side, you doink.
5. Michelle, I love you. Haha. Aww, chin up hun. I don’t know what happened and you can tell me when you finally feel like it but things like these do happen. And it’s not because of you or anything you’ve done. It’s not that easy to say goodbye and shut it out so don’t do it right away. Cry your heart out if you have to. But trust me, time is a healer. It might take long but it’ll definitely get better. After all, it works for me. (: Although I wasn’t entirely in the same situation as you but you know what I mean. So go keep baking things and cooking and doing those blog reviews and keep yourself occupied. Take care and don’t forget to smile today! I’ll talk to you soon (and I do love you!). (:
Okay I’m on a blogging spree. I don’t know why. I have nothing to blog about but yet I’m itching to blog. So on days like these, I’m gonna do a random list of… well… random things. xxx
