Would you go back in time to love somebody? Yes? Then I say you don't love her enough right now.
Cherish every moment you have together, not just because it pains to be apart... but because living the moments together is sweet and blissful.
"Honey, hurry up... Bring the camera, the sun's coming out, it's gorgeous!" seems like such a normal scene. But that scene became so dear to Jack the moment he could return to it. But that should not be the reason why it should be cherished. It should be because it is worth it. At least I would dare say I did and I hope it'll go on and on... and on and on...

Rants About Life
"I know a guy, he went fishing. When he realised the fishes in the pond have all been fished out, he went for prawns. He plays with another fish in another pond while having a pretty much untouched and out-of-favour fish back home. We call him a player."
I think when people get too comfortable with you, they tend to not observe their mannerism when with you, to the extent that they forget what is respect and take things for granted.
People who bother asking you out for a meal are friends. People who ask you if you need to talk are friends. People who still remember to speak to you even when you are far away are friends. But at the same time, if you're going to come to me because you need a drink (free of charge), you need some critical information, you need somewhere to sit so you can chill, or even if you need a fuck, screw off. Go play with your fishy owner.

My hall of residence (Connaught Hall) had our Halloween Party on Saturday night. It was an interesting event with people attending in various interesting costumes. After utilising the idea of Goth the last time (during the Connaught Hall Welcome Party), I decided to go with something different this time round. I chose Darth Maul.
It took me an hour trying to put those paint on my face: Step 1: Draw my eye rings dark with eyeliner Step 2: Draw the outline of the black portions Step 3: Paint the red portions of the face Step 4: Paint the remaining part of the face black Step 5: Touch up on the ears and the neck
It looked surprisingly good I would dare say. Halfway through putting on the make-up I was still wondering if it's going to work. Bobby had the process filmed on his i-phone. When I looked at it, I was quite surprised about my own enthusiasm and concentration in putting on make-up. Haha! =] Honestly? I really really enjoyed it!
A much larger portion of Singaporeans (in Connaught Hall) got involved than the last time, as well as some other friends from other countries. Jeremy dressed himself up in gunshot wounds, Felicia dressed up as "hunter" from L4D, Melissa was a ragdoll, Jenny was a (slutty) cat, Hendrick was Jigsaw's puppet (or rather he's willingly conned into it yet again by Melissa lol), Borjar, ByungJin & Muz were dead men, Taro was a Japanese thug. It's pretty interesting! :)
Here are some pictures of the night (more photos can be found on facebook): I'm quite proud of my own work :D

Ever had your mouth full of fresh lime juice, causing an aching pain at the back of your jaws?
Ever had your fist so cold when you clench it you feel the weakness in your nerves?
Ever felt the warm heat around your eyes?
Yes, that's how it feels like.

It's Saturday and I've lost count of how many weeks I've been here... I guess there's no point counting, it's my life and life goes on :) Just came back from Denmark Street for guitar (and alcohol) shopping with Zhu. Yes, I'm thinking of getting a guitar here in London. I think if I were to get one here, I'll get a Cort guitar. It sounds decent to me and costs quite alright - £119. It may seem expensive in Singapore Dollars, but then again, what's cheap in London (other than Subway and Primark)?
Bobby went home today and brought me Chicken Bryani from home *Awww* It's awesome food! =] It's awesome to have a roommate, no?

I'm done deciding. I'm not joining Gliding Club. No money no money! Well, here's a breakdown of the fees required:
Assuming that I join the club and glide for 9 months (ie. September to May)
Monthly Membership = ₤(40/9) = ₤4.44
Return Train Ride From London To Wendover = ₤7.00 Gliding Launch (assuming I fly 3 flights) = ₤(4.50X3) = ₤13.50 Flight Cost (assuming I fly 10 minutes per flight) = ₤(2.00X3) = ₤6.00 Food (I'll miss both brunch and dinner catered in the hall) = ₤4.00 Total Per Gliding Outing = ₤30.50
Assuming I do 2 outings per month, it'll be a good ₤61, adding on the monthly membership fees, it'll be ₤65.44 a month.
I'm already finding this expensive without converting to Singapore Dollars (I'm not intending to anyway) and I guess I should put this money to better use, considering I've got to finance my French classes on my own. This sucks because gliding's real fun, but I guess when you're not well off, some things just have got to go...

I feel I'm getting used to attending lectures. It's a good thing, I don't feel so out of place anymore. =]
Attended my first French class. It's kinda fun, but it's kinda tough at the beginning. I really wonder why do French count in such a complex manner! Haha. The moment the tutor spoke in English, Arsene Wenger pops into mind. It's the same accented English. But it's awesome stuff, I'm so gonna master the language =]
