the flowers made me sick

The past week has been hell for me. It started out with a bad runny nose/blocked nose and teary eyes. I thought I had fallen sick, but strangely though, I did not feel one bit tired or lethargic. After 3 days of taking over the counter medication and not feeling any better, I decided to make a trip down to…

surveying people is hard work

I like doing surveys. And since last semester, I’ve become the one creating the survey and going out to ask people to fill it in. It is a tough job, but it’s ok…I don’t hate it. Getting people to do surveys is hard work: You need to be thick-skinned. You need to be able to handle rejection and not let…

since when are flash mobs violent?

Because there are stupid people in this world. Stupid people who go spoil all the fun in something simple. Then the fun gets taken away from everyone. How do you blame the Government for banning fun when there are stupid people who do stupid things? I’m referring to this article. Sui lorz, now it’s banned in Philadelphia. If we’re not…

sakura girl

I expected a new single from NewS since it’s Spring and the Sakura season, but I didn’t exactly expect it to be a sad song seeing how 嵐 and their “サクラ咲ケ”.  Ok, the song isn’t a ballad, but it definitely talks about someone leaving her partner aka breakup. I couldn’t catch the meaning of the lyrics except for Massu’s solo…

After a long long time, I decided to do something on my poupee girl account. Finally got round to taking a few pictures and uploading them. I need ribbons so I can get my poupee girl some nice clothes. I created her in my likeness. Though she doesn’t look quite like me without specs and as much as I’ll like…

i will prepare for class x100

If there was any day I had to be more ashamed of myself than ever, today would be the day. I spent the whole weekend preparing cover letters and my resume that I didn’t prepare for Japanese class. No doubt I studied a bit for the kanji quiz, but I totally didn’t do the stuff in the workbook. Not like…

jelly beans with underwear

SoftBank released a new series of handphones called “Jelly Beans” and the mascot for that are jelly beans. *DUH* But wait, they are jelly beans with UNDERWEAR and their rears resembles butt cheeks. Is it me or the jelly beans and logo resemble the Jelly Belly beans? I guess the Japanese live up to their name of being “perverted.” To…

We discussed in ADV483 about the death of print, tv, and radio. With the internet sticking around, these media are suffering. Anyway, someone in my class said that if anything at all, he thinks magazines would be the first to go.

in my world

In my world, we walk in coloured bubbles. Mine is pink of course. In my world, we listen to happy music on our cute little headphones. In my world, we only know happiness and the best things are smiles. In my world, we survive on hugs and happy air. How I wish I could live in my world forever. PS:…
