When I was in Primary 4, I had a typing speed of 6 WPM. My teacher had flaunted her (ahem) typing skills then and when her result showed 36 WPM, the whole class clapped and exclaimed "No wonder she's a teacher!"
Now looking back a good 10 years later, I wonder... "How the hell did she become a teacher??"

In other words, the friend I mentioned 2 posts earlier accepeted the guy and they're now happy together :) I'm truly elated for them - I'm looking forward to them breaking through society's stereotyping and finding lasting love in true contentment. Cheers! ^^
I've been wanting to write about this, but only remembered to take a snapshot of it on Thursday when I was on my way to school!
Yes, I pass by this everyday...

Alright alright fine, I wish. Here's what it actually is...
HAHA! I'm becoming a cfg, seriously! But surely I must find something to look out for during my 1 hour bus journey everyday! XD
And, it just occured to me: I think DBSK takes a shorter time to travel from Korea to Japan, than for me to get home from Boon Lay on rainy days. (-。-;)
A faculty friend of mine, L, was telling a few of us girls about a dilemma of hers, well, with regards to love. There was this guy she met at a previous workplace who became a good friend of hers, and has recently started courting her. We were all supportive of this potential relationship - I mean he came across to be rather nice and a good boyfriend to have - until she said:
"He's from ITE."
We naturally fell silent. The reason was understood: if not now, eventually, they will belong to different social groups and the gap between them will only widen. Friends J and Z decided being the pragmatists they are, they'd choose bread over love, hence it would be unwise to accept the guy. Though of course, chances of them working out are still existent, just low.
I find it sad that even on affairs of the heart, reality comes knocking. Who wouldn't want to love as freely as she/he can without a care for the world, without thinking if there'll be food on the table tomorrow? I wish I can be an idealist to scoff and choose love over bread...but face it, it's a crude world out there.
And love, if without basic financial means and security for the future, sometimes does turn bitter. Everyone wishes for true love and happily-ever-afters...But oh, how hard for both to come by?
It rained terribly today, the downpour lasting from noon till past evening. And all thanks to my timetable, I was stranded at my school bus stop - time reading 5pm - with gazillions of other students, waiting for that one single bus that would ferry us to the interchange, where I would have to hop on another bus homewards. Come shine, the entire journey would clock close to 2 hours (including the walking and waiting); but today, it was a quarter to 8 when I finally stepped into the house. Good gracious, 3 hours of travelling...I swore my butt froze after all the sitting. No joke. ( ̄_ ̄ i)
All's good now that I've handed in my fateful project today! It's a 60 second soundbite, and I admit I got way too ambitious when I decided to venture into a movie commercial, which means I would have to get snippets of the supposed 'film' I'm advertising, mix in appropriate sound effects, and lastly record some narration. And that was what I did: wrote a lil' script where I played both the hero and heroine, borrowed more than 10 audio CDs and listened through hundreds of tracks for fitting sound effects, and of course narrating with as much emotions as possible. HA, and yes this pretty much explains why I've been cooping up in the audio suite the past days: recording is tough, but editing is extreme. To think my friend had the audacity to BOL when he heard my tweaked voice pitch to a guy's, exclaiming "OMG you seriously sound like a 人妖!"

谢谢。
Last weekend had been hectic as hell, and I pray for a breather in the coming one! ≧(´▽`)≦ I think we all need more time for ourselves...
