Memories.
during the F1 weekend, i got hold of some fond memories. on the last day, sf performed at gate 1, near kallang. the picture above.. used to be my training spot in sec 1. those were the days.. when i really pushed my body to the limits. and even beyond that. training so hard i can still remember all the push ups, pull ups, running, canoeing. hardwork but fun indeed.
so the many trips made up and down this water side really made me want to canoe again. just to get into a boat, put on a lifejacket, take my brasca 4 and start paddling like there's no tomorrow. i never knew something which i used to do every single day, even 2 or 3 times a day would become something i miss so much.
anyway, F1 is over. thankfully, the strikeforce is good company. many laughs, got to know more ppl better. interesting time i should say. (:
wishing i could get into the water again.
paddles up, GO!
how i miss hearing that!
bye!

Formula 1.
so the F1 has come and gone. for me, the experience was rather neutral. and yes, i was at the F1. not as a spectator though. strikeforce was performing.. 16 gigs in 4 days. amazing. so anyway, back to the F1. i took away more negatives than positives from it.
so i'm GLAD that it's over. amidst all the chaos of the race and stuff, i found myself BORED. like seriously BORED. i'm a person who needs entertainment 24/7, at least something to do. so i can safely say that throughout the 4 days, i didn't really have alot to do at all. of course you should know by now that i'm definitely not a fan of the F1 and the likes.
crowded places, loud noises, dirty floors, limited drinks and weird food? not my kinda thing.
so goodbye to F1.
finally.

Inferiority.
as much as i hate it, i just can't help it.
i feel inferior. not good enough. just plain average.
i dont like being average. it's insulting. neither good nor bad, not good at anything. just in other words, existing for the sake of it.
i don't feel like a part of any team.
i know this is not just boredom.
bye.

Highly Bored Individual.
i realise, i really require high levels of entertainment. to me, watching tv is like putting me in prison. i need to do something to cure my boredom. i can't just sit passively and watch. maybe that's why i get so restless in class and debate.
for a person who can fall asleep while canoeing, and doze off during a rock concert, you know she NEEDS to be hands on. she has to have something to do. and what's more, i do things rather fast. so...... hahahahaha!
maybe i should get a hamster. okay, that has absolutely no link but i just think they're cute.
okay. i know i should be sleeping now cos tmr i'm finally going out with taukua!!! yay!
bye!

Definitions.
i think, many definitions are useless. you see, we live in a world which is full of different perspectives. honestly, everything depends on an individual's perspective, and thus is subjective to that individual. how then will definitions succeed?
you see, if you have seen me before, you will know that i am of average size. i believe i'm average sized. not skinny, not fat. however, the world doesn't agree with my perspective. you see, i have majority of people coming up to me saying, you're skinny and you should eat more. NEWSFLASH when people eat beyond their limits, they get sick and throw up. anyway, i know these people are just saying it for fun so yeah. yet, i have another group of people saying i should exercise more cos i'm getting flabby. and i have people trying to promote slimming products/programmes to me. so obviously to them, i'm fat.
you see, now lets take a look at the definitions of skinny and fat. they are UNDEFINED. you don't see a dictionary saying. skinny: person with waistline of less than 15". neither do you see a dictionary saying, fat: person with a waistline of more than 30". it's NOT DEFINED. so EVERYTHING is based solely on perspective.
what i think is fat may come across as skinny to another person. so, i'm happy with my perspective and thus i choose to believe that I AM AVERAGE SIZED. thankyouverymuch for all your concern, but i regret to inform you that your perspectives will not be taken into consideration. (:
please do not try again later.
bye!

Frustration.
i'm so pissed at myself simply because i've got nothing to do during the holidays. ARGH. why is it that i'm so pathetic that i can't even find anything to keep myself occupied? i mean yeah sure i can just sit around and waste the day away but i want my life to be interesting! i don't want to let days pass by just like that. why is it that i'm not having any fun?
i blame myself.
argh. why why why is my 1.6m tall body so incapable of doing anything well or at least finding something to do. i'm irritated at myself. all my friends are working, and me? i can't even find a job! as if that's not enough, i've got absolutely nothing to do. like seriously. all the movies that come out are like so *yawn* and shopping in singapore isn't always that fun.
ARGH.
ARGH.
ARGH.
someone help me cos i can't seem to be able to help myself.
bye!

How Girls Think.
with regards to this topic, i have 3 words. FILL ME IN.
you see, over a series of events over the weekend, i got an amazing revelation that even though i am a girl, i don't think like one. WOW. that was really shocking. and along with all the guys, i'm faced with a common question. HOW DO GIRLS THINK?
you see, i never knew that...
- girls are afraid of being alone for even short periods of time. i always thought independence was key?
- girls make assumptions about everything. i thought, we have a mind?
- girls always talk things out. i thought, we will just understand that people make mistakes?
- girls complain to everyone but don't confront the person that wronged them. i thought, we would go to that person first?
- girls would say things just cos they feel obliged to do so. i thought, we would always speak our mind?
- girls say things they don't mean. i thought, we always told the truth?
- girls cry just because they're all alone for like an hour. i thought, we were stronger than that?
- girls make a scene out of everything. i thought, we would be wiser?
- girls dare not confront the problem head on. i thought, we would be more straightforward?
- girls assume that just because a guy and girl are close, they're together. i thought, we would ask and clarify before assuming?
it really opened up my eyes. i realised i'm not like other girls. i think TOTALLY DIFFERENT from them.
so girls, forgive me if i don't seem to understand you. i'm pretty irritated actually. girls should be stronger, more independent. what's with all the crying and making a scene in public? girls, is that really gonna solve the problem? it's no wonder we hear people saying, girls are weak. stop tarnishing the image of the female race. it's appalling!
be a stronger girl.
bye.

Multiple Personalities?
sometimes i think i'm so many people all combined into one. i act differently all the time, and i even think differently. it's not something like double-mindedness, but rather different angles to the same person.
i guess, writing it down here won't really justify what i mean.
to accomodate another side of me, i started another blog.
http://remaerd-me.livejournal.com
once you've read it, you'll realise what i mean by me having multiple personalities!
bye!

Attempt at Health.
it should be a well-established fact that yours truly is not exactly the healthiest person around. snacking all day and not exercising, not good. so in an attempt to be more healthy, i have not eaten hello panda and pocky for 1 whole week! that's AMAZING.
however, the more i attempt to be healthy, the more unhealthy i seem. you see, because i have not been eating hello panda/pocky, i now get hungry. so becuase of that i have to eat. and u should know by now that i don't really like to eat rice and noodles. so what's left in this red dot for food? fast food. yes you see, there IS a lack of potatoes here. read my previous post on it.
so, i have been eating fast food for the past week. subway, macs, bk, kfc, long john, mos burger. that is BAD. really BAD. and being the lazy person that i am, i don't exercise, which makes it even WORSE. yes, now it's a HEALTH PROBLEM. you see how cutting down on cute lil snacks like hello panda and pocky actually can create a genuine problem.
which brings me back to this. why the lack of potatoes singapore, why?!
on a lighter note, i realise i tend to eat more when i'm with family members. i have no idea why. it's probably due to pressure. NOT GOOD.
okay, hopefully i'll be healthier! EXERCISE MORE!!!
k enough. bye!
