old buses

The buses are seriously getting old, breaking down on me. Now this can no longer be discounted as an excuse for getting to school late.

What happened to our infrastructural efficiency?

What happened to the reliability on our beloved public transport network?

What happened to those Daimler-Chrysler engines?!?!

song in the head

Songs always do get stuck in my head, especially if it's from a movie soundtrack. Those are especially sticky, but yet have nice, catchy tunes (fuzzy feeling coming), though nauseatingly so. I have a few songs stuck in my head right now, but they're sort of mixing. So sometimes I hear something from Mulan (my sister's currently quite in love with it, and it's funny how everyone says Fa Mulan, and not Hua), and another from Prince of Egypt (don't know why it popped out). If you're wondering why both are cartoons, it's because animated movies are actually the only movies worth watching over and over again.

Why? It's because it's The Way, i.e, it just is.

Though, songs in my head don't annoy me or anything like that, because they're way clearer and therefore more enjoyable, than songs from an iPod. Something like an inbuilt player, really.

bygone

Ah long time no post. Well, I've been on attachment for around five weeks now. Though it may seem a little monotonous at times, I'm nonetheless quite grateful for this attachment - quite a new experience, I must say. But on to more pressing things.

I (and the rest of Singapore who took the O's) got back THE results. Oh yes, THE results that will make or break you. Well, not exactly. And even more not so for me, since I only took the HCL test. Ah, it's quite a known fact that I'm not entirely great in the subject, so I was not too surprised I got the results I got (no, I'm not telling). But definitely thankful that I passed. But I must say I was quite surprised at the results others got. Some in pleasant surprise, some in utter shock, and some in milder disbelief. Oh well, everything's quite unpredictable (especially when it comes to things like these). I didn't expect everyone to congratulate me or console me or anything, but certain insensitive remarks were made that I felt were awfully derisive and contemptuous, and I felt quite hurt after hearing them, especially since it came from someone whom I thought would not say such things. But with all things like these, it's best not to dwell too much on them.

On another note, I am very, very grateful for my parents, who were very, very understanding about my grade (not telling). But I just hope that I would work harder and know that I have done my very best. leftbracketandcolon.

And can everyone else please start updating and stop deleting/moving their blogs... I want to read...
