the unimportant, insignificant flea.

the princess and the flea,
hardly have anything in common.
the princess gained her crown,
the flea gained the frown.

i saw it thru the window,
ecstasy, euphoria, estatic.
but the heart and love that went into it,
it never got reciprocrated.

you don't care, do you.
you all don't care, do you.
it's fine, it's good.
the flea is alright,
she'll flutter off into the shadows.

oh save me, frm this place.

hello everyone. im back from an unofficial, unannounced 2-week hiatus. meanwhile, its been an uneventful, unhappening 2 weeks. so to cut to the chase - it was b.o.r.i.n.g.

what could possibly be so eventful anyway? well for a change, im free frm any more presentations, assignments, projects & speeches. (it must've been love)... but it's OVER now! :) that's really good u noe, no more working in bloodsucking groups and needless frustration. but then again, it also signals the start of real pure mugging all over again cus of the impending exams. EXAMS?! gosh, havent heard that word, or done anything for that kinda stuff since a year ago. mugging all over again?! :x then again, exams mean that holidays are near too! so i shall be a half-fuller rather than a half-emptier.

right now, im in cs101 lect. yes ok, chide me or whatever for blogging in lect. but hey, i think im the saint among the rascals in this class. that is, those who actually come at all. and for those who actually dragged their sleepy bottoms to class at 8.30am on a friday morning. let's see... maybe 10% are actually copying notes? maybe... 30% actually have their computer screen at the ppt slides? the rest... well. some are watching taiwanese drama... some watching korean drama... some watching english show... last lect even got one watching sister act. YES you saw it right, sister act ONE somemore. tell me why im here?!

the princess & the flea

cathy & jodie. incredibly good read, smthing that's well suited to my friendship-pey taste buds. it made smiles dress up my face as i read them on the go admidst crowds, and as i prepared to retire for the night on my bed. and its something that can make u feel all fuzzy & warm inside, esp if you have company such as my siao cha bor's. it's effortless to relate to what is written in there. we may not have done things in the exact context, but that familiarity is there.

grace, kaishi & i didnt even start out as the best of friends immediately. we were jus somehow in the same class, but hung out with different groups separately. like they love to say, i used to hang out with the pai kia's! & we only got to know ah tay in the jc years. we may not have had a group like the meringues, but we sure are as colourful as them.

gracie. there are some traits about this girl that sets us apart right away. for one, WE ARE NEVER LATE ALL THE TIME! gosh, i have absolutely no idea how this girl manages to be late, somehow or another, every single time. and compared to me and titu, gracie is relatively quieter in class. i'll forever be talking, and titu (as according to mrs maria sng), will be 'jumping arnd in class'. -.-

titu. for one, none of us have sweaty palms!! hahaha. but we love ur sweaty palms also ok. :D the one who always rush home at 2.05pm every afternoon in st nicks to catch her tv & beauty sleep. family is 'shareholder' of yeo hup seng. EXTREMELY LOVABLE mum (HEE!).

ah tay. stark difference - small size. how about, extremely small size? haha but she's one chilli padi. its only been a short 2.5 years so far, but i'd say what we share definitely goes beyond the measurement of time. yay ur mum took over my mum to take top spot! many idiosyncrasies about her, this chilli padi. how about, ARE YOU MAD?! or... march 31st? the bomb: her weird photoshots.

me. let's say it together: disgustingly neat. perfectionist. goldilocks? to titu at least, im 'disgustingly neat', while ah tay's and her table are probably mt everest and 'covered in snow' the year throughout.

we certainly do not dress up like movie characters and don the streets of orchard road. but we do equally crazy things. others will probably think we're losers by sticking to each other and (probably) only each other in the years that have passed us by, and the years ahead... but i think we're all damn proud of what we share. and jus like what jodie said, "you and your friends define what is 'colourful' - and to hell with what others think".

to end with, i think i've found it. that once-in-a-lifetime-equivalent sort of thing, that sort of combination as out of the world as ice kachang with no red beans, but yet as precious as the promise of a rainbow. i've found my rascal of a pal, or pals, to be precise. but there's no such thing as a self-generating friendship, and we'd have to work damn bloody hard to make sure we smile at each other with our dentures decades down the road.

but for us, we're not the sort that pick the easy way out. how far we've come is evidence in itself. i love my siao cha bors. :)
