The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, He leads me beside quiet waters, He restores my soul.He guides me in paths of righteousness for His name's sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil;my cup overflows.Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.- Psalm 23

You know how it is that you have your hopes so high for an impending event and then when it finally does come to pass it doesn't seem to play such a huge significance.

If you don't know by now, i've offically completed Year 1 of my poly education and on looking back at the past year i dare say i've changed. Late to be like doing reflections and new year resolutions but better late than never.

Not to bore into the details , i've decided that i won't get a temp job this holidays. Reason being it makes no sense to work for 2 weeks and then have to return to school for 1 week or so before i can work again. The underlying reason being i don't like the commitment i have to make once i agree to work. But as always i'ld keep my ad-hoc job cause working hours are flexible.

Time to SLEEP. Exam week was a killer.

Its really quite alarming to discover people are scrutinising your life.

I say this because a few weeks back i missed 1 Sunday of Church and the next thing i knew i was on msn being 'grilled' by a certain pastor on why i wasn't around. Inasmuch as it was just a friendly gesture it dawned upon me that as insignificant as i may seem, there are sights aimed at my head which is never too comforting.

And it didn't help that it happened again today, someone on seeing me went "i haven't seen you in eons"

Maybe its my paranoia acting up again but I'm convinced this is the onset of an immense conspiracy.

So its one down. 3 to go.

Managed to get through 4 chapters by God's grace though i had to lose sleep which would have been fine if i didn't have driving and tuition over the span of the rest of the day.

Lesson 1, Don't leave mugging to the 11th hour unless your looking to commit suicide.
Lesson 2, Don't get behind the wheel if your exhausted, cause you won't know what your doing like now as i type this entry my mind is blank and I'm just inserting words i think have some link and conjuring sentences as i go along.
Lesson 3, Don't go to a course known for its good prospects, There's always strings attached.

Other than that its good to be depending for a miracle once in while if you get my drift. =)

So the part of me that was in rebellion got overpowered by the other part of me which realised the reality of my exams. Unfortunately this only happened about 3 hours ago and as such i have there about covered 1 out of 5 chapters for Micro Biology.

For lack of a better expression, * enter your own curse/anxiety/stress related phrase* and it won't even come close to how I'm feeling now.

Oh how i adore the education system.

There is a missing E lecture of Basic Microbiology.
It doesn't help that my exam is on Friday.

Anyone happen to have notes?


That aside, with my exams just a blink of an eye away i feel the pressure since i don't seem to know there about anything about the subjects to be tested on. I blame myself for not studying but I've come to realise I'm beginning to have a distaste for science. So much for practicality and better job prospects.

But as an intellectual someone recently said. "It'll be over soon" so i guess i can live with it till next semester.

And the order of the day is Sun Baked Lobster.



Imported and Hand Baked over a period of 2 days the with a combination of sodium chloride,sea breeze and 101 chemicals. This dish is sure to add radiance and gratification to your meal.
Best served in room temperature and after a nap.



My hiatus had to be abruptly shortened owing to the fact that the educational institution where i attain my academic qualifications is a major fan of to put lightly issuing admonishing letters. That coupled with the fact that my academic progression is anything but immaculate is just disheartening.


Procrastination gene, i'm sorry but its time for your demise.

I scream Rebellion.

Repudiate the cultural goals and the Institutionalised means of getting them.

The thought of a mundane vicious cycle irks me. Didn't fathom it initially but seemingly the irony of it all is we're all indicted.

Of mannerism it appears globalization has taken its toll on society. The intrinsic technological advances that subtlety rise are not in themselves perfect.

Amid the rush for property, prestige and power and its known associates, society seems to have overlooked the fact that all life forms are terminal at some point or another. Makes me wonder what they were referring to when they said we were the smartest of mammals. That being said, reality is such because we’ve all been socialized into these values and norms, such that proposing a revolt in the system would cause chaos. The power elite have done all in their power to ensure that it remains largely unchanged for their betterment.

I dwell in despair at the state society has become.


On different note: Happy CNY everyone!

I welcomed the year of the Rat with a Rat coming into my room as I was typing this entry, Talk about literally.

Last but not least. Happy Birthday to someone. You know who you are. =)
