what would you do if you had only 6 months left to live?

this was the poster at the bus shelter i alighted on monday thursday night on my way back home. and i thought of the things i would do if i only had 6 months left to live.

hey meechy!!!! i am so happy for you. glad that you are having a good time in US. we miss you tons back here.

Thursday, October 26, 2006 @2:24 PM

methinks miche's allergic to the sun. or rather the sun maketh miche depressed. miche was freaking depressed when she came back from Korea and it was so freaking hot in singapore. and she was well, slightly happier during the haze cause there was no sun! but yeah, the sun is out today and she has an headache. bleah.

have a safe flight nat! and keng too! to NY. i want to go to NY too!!!.. =P

miche is back to work in the office.

Tuesday, October 24, 2006 @11:43 PM

staying over at rens place tonight. it is hari raya puasa. haha yeah, i "celebrate" hari raya puasa too. called aaron just now to wish him a happy hari raya. cause he is alone there and i thought it would be nice to call him. then i thought of nat. nat is flying off to New York on friday. i will miss her. she is bringing cookie monster along with her to new york. hehe. trying to finish up my presentation for 18th Century poetry on William Cowper's The Task. hahaha but it really aint getting anywhere... =P

miche miche miche miche miche. so bored of school. oh my goodness that was so narcisstic. i cant believe i just typed my name so much. hmmmm.

Sunday, October 22, 2006 @11:41 PM

miche's sitting in the dark at the moment. it has been 3 months since the lights bulbs in her room has gone burst and she hasnt been bothered to go and get replacements. in fact, she's gotten accustomed to sitting in the dark.

i am really sorry for how things turned out. you have no idea how bad i feel or how much guilt i put myself. if there was another way for me to do this, i would but i dont know any other way. i dont know what else is there for me to do. i can only tell you i am sorry. terribly sorry.

Thursday, October 19, 2006 @12:00 PM

drian passed miche the econs bible last night and she flipped through it causally and found her old econs notes in it. it dawned on her, she is a freaking nerd. this is revenge for all the times she called al a geek. hai. miche cant believe that she actually made notes for school like yeah. oh well, she is such a nerd. sobs.

miche has a huge headache now. +'(

Wednesday, October 18, 2006 @12:43 PM

Jstor is miche's new best friend. oh man. an A-. hah. my last min work.

Tuesday, October 17, 2006 @2:23 PM

am sitting in the office, with no one but me and the intern. i turned up this morning to an empty office. like seriously empty. was wondering where the rest of the world (i.e. my directors and boss and officer was). found out that all my bosses were on course with the big boss. and my intern was on time off. and officer was late. hai. so yeah.

anyway, there are no bosses in the offices for the whole day.

thank you marky for the blue rattle bear. it is really sweet of you.

oh oh, hahah nat, mund, dom and mart were horrified to find out that miche has a blog and they are all mentioned on it. so i wonder if they can ever find this place. hahahahhaha...

okay, back to work, am contemplating what i am going to have for lunch. a little late though. hmmmm.

miche is a tad sleepy. so much work to do.

Saturday, October 14, 2006 @2:22 AM

decided to blog instead of turning just now. been a while since i wrote anything and in fact there are many things i want to write about. but you know been doing so many assignments that i cant look at anymore words for a while but then again. words are all we have as utter by guilderstern (i think) in stoppard's play.

my best friend in primary school got married a week ago. she's my age and i met up with some of my other good friends in primary school. and i realised how much we have changed. or rather how much i drifted away from them. for starters, i am the only cuckoo still studying. yup, everyone has a job. and i am studying and erm yeah english literature, soft option i could see in their eyes when they asked me about it.

met adrian, by accident the other when rens wanted waffles. and we met up with him again subsequently on wednesday night. it sure brought back many wonderful memories of how i use to tutor drian at venetia at sixth ave. the many nights we were there, joking laughing trying to make economics so much easier and fun for him. and how history was his comfort subject (well hahha econs was mine)

on the way home on thurday night from the office, i passed by the pines. and i thought of sam and josh and jake and john and yes you too driel. i was flipping my diary today and realised it is going to be jake's birthday soon.

went past wine wise on wednesdy night on my way home from sixth ave, i thought of lex and how perhaps we should go and sit there and sip our wines again one day soon. we havent been to hanabi for a while and we were supposed to go for supper a long long time ago.

tuesday was marky OnO's birthday, happy birthday OnO! hahah i called you at the stroke of midnight to wish you happy birthday alright, and i was DEAD tired. =P

monday, i sent aaron a really random email. well i wished him happy ramadan.

i dont mean to be angsty, cause i am not, i am more melancholic and nostalgic than anything. perhaps it is the way i sound, but yeah i am not always that. give me a choice, i will go and hide away at a corner of the world and see if you will fine me.

miche and her random,senseless bout of anger needs to sleep. aufwidersehen.

in the fit of the moment last night at around 0130 hours, miche decided to look for a wallet in the midst of the clatter called her room. looking for the toscano wallet her mum passed to her a couple of years ago, cause she vaguely remembered she wanted to bring that with her to korea but she didnt and that the other wallet she had bought, was the same wallet that mund carries. so yup. in the fit of the moment. but alas, she couldnt find the wallet so she decided to pack her room. which resulted in her fallling asleep only around 0700 hours this morning. hahah. on the bright side, she found out that the modem adapter of her new modem which hasnt been used for the last four months, is perfectly suitable for her keyboard. so finally, after 3 whole years (she loaned her adapter to mrs c and the 2003 team to peru, cause it is a changeable voltage adapter and she never got it back, alongside her beloved nike duffer bag) she can finally play her keyboard again. time to get it fixed though, parts of it sound out of tune. haha.

alrighty.

miche bought a 200 gb external hard disk last night. so much extra storage space, how cool is that man. bought another 512 mb thumbdrive for 18 bucks. and a cool silver coloured usb hub. oh-kay sound like a computer geek now. but it is cool. well to me at least. cause now the comp is going so much faster. itunes is now on the external drive. lala.

alright off to a korean performace tonight.

Tuesday, October 03, 2006 @12:36 AM

dont be surprised that i can love and hate you simultaneously with the same degree of intensity.

i dont have much emotions most of the time, but when i do, it is either all or nothing. so here you go.

Sunday, October 01, 2006 @9:01 PM
