and why am i home on a Sunday?
ohright, right.
the eye infection that's why.
thank goodness all the pumping of eyedrops have significantly lessened the reddening of the eye, or i might just have to leave house tmr in trepidation at how erlack i look in specs.
texted Van last night about my condition, and her reply went along the lines of, "maybe looking nerdy will help you concentrate on your studies better. you should seriously consider this pyschological effect."
heh, and i laughed.
okay fine, so it was late (1230am), and maybe my brain's all zonked from the books, but i found her reply funny.
like, ha-ha funny.
anyway! pics from Baybeats,
and to quote DotTang, "the mats are like, omnipresent"
hahaha. how true.

Joseph was supposed to be in the pic, but goondu cut himself out.
to quote Khiu, "face to big!"
and okay, we had dinner at Spagaddies/ Spagatties/ Spagadies, gosh how do you spell?
and i saw Siti! (okay random outburst.)
and it was also Jerico's bday, so..
happy uber belated birthday Jerico!

and yeah, since Khiu keeps posting unglam shots of me,
here's one of here looking like Plastic.

like she's attemption to kill a lizard (okay. so i couldnt spell croa..you know.)

and okay! i was totally playing with the jelly tadpoles you find in the drink, and it looked like MUCUS.
hahaha.
okay, lunch!

my heart feels like it's gonna explode out of my chest right now.
my fingers are going all cold and urgh.
it's the stress bug, say hello!
blaaaaaaaaaah. i think im feeling such a great mixture of emotions, thank god im female, or i might just explode soon enough. heh.
aside from the stress bug, it's just such a nice fuzzywuzzy feeling to "Do everything in love - 1st Corinthians 16:14", and to receive super sweet actions from friends.
Friends who call to pray (thankyouJoseph!), friends who encourage with sermon highlights (thanks Becca!), friends who show concern over my "swollen eye"- to quote the bro, (thank you velly much YH, Amanda&Khiu) annnnd to those who have wished me GOOD LUCK (aww. charmainey is aliveeeee).
thank you so much! :D
really, it's the sweetest actions of you guys who make my day much better, and tadah.
triumph over smelly stress bugs.
aww, im in cloud nine already.
and so i'll go sleep, and ramble on about identity, patriachy, the external forces, alienation/ marginalisation/ confinement tmr.
wish me luck as i attempt to be a sensitive Lit student to the whines of BKC and the concerns of Lim and Desai.
whooo.
