Guess what am I doing, all alone inside a lecture hall?

The semester's getting busy, so not much time to blog. And no inspirations too...unless people wants to know what I have been cooking up in the lab. Hahahaha. Hmm. Anyway, now I am all alone inside the Engineering Auditorium. What do you think I am doing? Taking a chance to catch a nap? Surfing some boliao websites? Digging my nose? Catching up with some readings that are so un-read for the past couple of weeks? Plurking?

None of them are right! In fact, I am multi-tasking. I don't know why, but I love doing that. Reading stuff + blogging + enjoying the air-con and hoping that I don't die of coldness cometh 6pm. Hahaha. Just being boliao here. Life has too much things to do sometimes...and I must learn to take a break from time to time.

As for those who saw my Plurk a few days ago, don't worry, I am getting better and better. Some things just do not come at the right time...and I will leave it at that. Anyway, I am too busy to be bothered about it.

Alright...that's it for now. Stay tuned for further updates. As I may, just may, be struck by a new inspiration again.

Ciao~

I ran away from school and went uncaught for 208 days!!

The exodus...had officially ended yesterday. Yup, I am not joking...I counted. I was away from school for 208 days. When I stepped back into the school, I had to take a bit of time to figure out where to go to a couple of places. Everything looks familiar yet a tad distant, refreshing yet nostalgic. Ah. Feels so good to run away from school...

Now...what were you thinking? I was away from school because of attachment lah. I am such a good student OK~why would I do such a thing? xD Then, why did I decide to go back then, you ask? It was to meet my professor to discuss how to kick start my FYP... =p

It was approximately 2.30pm. Time for the meeting. I was a bit apprehensive as for one, I have never met that professor before (I selected the project based on recommendations) and two, it was actually my very first time during the three years in school, that I am visiting a professor alone for discussion. And so...gingerly, I knocked on the door. After a few knocks, he asked me to go in and I did.

After roughly half an hour, I was out of his office. Not a bad first meeting, I guess. I was briefed on the framework of my project...and it sounded...chim (OK OK, which FYP title is not chim?) But I have the confidence to do it, as I find it interesting and do know a bit of stuff related to the project.

Subsequently, I went to see a co-supervisor and received some administrative instructions. That's formal, you think. But the focus is not here. The focus was...I actually walked the wrong direction before I realized my mistake. Well...that's what a long exodus from your familiar environment can do to you... =(

Anyway, this re-embarkation onto the school compound marked the beginning of another journey. What will happen on this journey? I don't know, but I hope everything can go as smoothly as possible.

Peace out~

My friend tried to make me drink piss!! O.O

It's shocking, no joke!! I went to a friend's birthday outing last Friday to celebrate with her and...she also gave me a present! Reason being, she was busy during my birthday and did not have the opportunity to celebrate it with me. The gift was...kinda huge, hence I could not pack it into my bag. It measured approximately 45 cm x 15 cm x 15 cm, thus I had to carry it home through several MRT stations with inquisitive eyes falling on my present from time to time. At last! I got home, and eagerly opened the wrapper. And...

Lo and behold! I was surprised when I saw this legendary...

...pissing machine!!


Honestly speaking, I have never seen anything quite like it before...here's a closer shot at the machine:



Notice how straight (or overly straight) the little boy (THE BOY, not his 'thing') stands? Must be due to an overloaded bladder...



...and the tiny metal orifice is where the kiddo 'processes' your Milo Fuze, Ovaltine, green tea or what not into piss...for you to drink!

Anyway, I haven't tried it myself yet...the button at its back is kinda...hard to depress...

One Night in Beijing (English Version)

Alright, so I went to K-Box today with my university pals. Hard to go out with 'em these days due to the crazy workload us students have to bear. Anyway, I had a whale of time despite the relatively poor start...due to slight sore throat. Well, I think I sang about...10 songs? Both Chinese and English ones. One of them was 'One Night in Beijing' (Shin version)...and I decided to do a half-assed translation of the song into...English!! Enjoy.

One night in Beijing
One night in Beijing

我留下许多情
I left behind lots of love

不管你爱与不爱
Doesn't matter whether you love or not

都是历史的尘埃
'Cos you will be history anyway

One night in Beijing
One night in Beijing

我留下许多情
I left behind lots of love

不敢在午夜问路
I do not dare to ask for directions at night

怕走到了百花深处
'Cos I am afraid of getting drowned by the flowers

人说百花地深处
According to people, in the abyss of flowers

住着老情人缝着绣花鞋
There live an old lover who mends embroidered shoes

面容安详的老人
An amiable old woman

依旧等待着出征的龟人
Who is waiting for her Ninja turtle that had gone to war

One night in Beijing
One night in Beijing

你可别喝太多酒
No more Chivas Regal for you, my dude

走在地安门外
When one loiters near the gates of Di-an

没有人不动真情
None will not be moved

One night in Beijing
One night in Beijing

我留下许多情
I left behind lots of love

把酒高歌的男儿
The guys who drown in song and wine

是北方的懒猪
Are the lazy pigs from the north

人说北方的懒猪
People says those pigs from the north

会在寒风起站在城门外
Will sedia outside the gates, bearing the frigid winds

穿着腐锈的铁衣
Donned in rusty armor

呼唤城门外眼中含着泪
Howling outwards in the gates, with tears welling up

Woahhh~~~

我已等待了千年
I have waited for a millenium

为何城门还不开?
Why are the castle gates still shut?

Wahhh~~~

我已等待了千年
I have waited for a millenium

为何良人还不回来?
Why is my Mr. Good still not back yet?

One night in Beijing
One night in Beijing

我留下许多情
I left behind lots of love

不敢在午夜问路
I do not dare to ask for directions at night

怕触动了伤心的魂
'Cos I fear I would scar a few sad souls

One night in Beijing
One night in Beijing

我留下许多情
I left behind lots of love

不敢在午夜问路
I do not dare to ask for directions at night

怕走到了地安门
Don't wanna get lost near the gates of Di-an

不想再问你
Got sick of asking you

你到底在何方?
Where the hell have you been to?

不想再思量
Got sick of thinking about

你到底回来么?
Whether you'll be back for EPL finale

想着你的心
Thinking about your heart

想着你的脸
As well as your face

想捧在胸口
Wanna imprison you in my memories

能不放就不放
For as long as I can

*Disclaimer: This 'translation' is purely for entertainment purposes only...for a good laugh yeah. =p

I did change some parts of the song to increase the 'fun' factor. Got the idea after I reached home.
