And I’m determined to be a nocturnal creature, because I don’t want to see the sun. Shall bid for classes from 3.30 onwards next semester. On a different note, I think the motion sickness problem has been eradicated, because the inflight entertainment actually entertained, instead of torturing me. (: Many games of unscrambling (kids version), bejewelled, bridge, and a (failed) crossword attempt later, I moved on to movies. It’s impossible to describe how different it feels. Imagine sleeping throughout a 13h flight when everyone else (almost) is playing / watching movies! Eww. Anyhow, we had 4 long plane rides and 4 US domestic flights. I think I might just have had my fill of plane rides for the time being.

Btw, watch Angus, Thongs & Perfect Snogging for the 2 cute boys. Otherwise, the movie’s pretty ridiculous with a ridiculous plot that won’t happen in Singapore. (Well, it might happen in UK idk). Emma Roberts is really pretty, and was awesome in Wild Child. ^^v I like. The City of Ember was not bad because the 2 kids worked well together and Poppy was surprisingly adorable despite her chewing tendencies. The same actress who played Briony in Atonement acted as Lina and that was a wee bit annoying. (Lina was pretty annoying but she’s only 12…). The Sisterhood of Traveling Pants 2 wasn’t for me, totally. Reeked of ridiculousness and impossibility. Oh well, -not- for me. Bridget’s plot was flat, Lena’s ridiculous, Carmen’s even more ridiculous, and I actually liked Tibby’s plot the most. Even though she was so exasperating.

Time to finish Breaking Dawn and start my new life. ;)

 

親愛的,那不是愛情 December 6, 2008

教室裏那台風琴叮咚叮咚叮嚀
像你告白的聲音 動作一直很輕
微笑看你送完信 轉身離開的背影
喜歡你字跡清秀的關心

那溫熱的牛奶瓶在我手中握緊
有你在的地方 我總感覺很窩心
日子像旋轉木馬 在腦海裏轉不停
出現那些你對我好的場景

你說過牽了手就算約定
但親愛的那並不是愛情
就像來不及許願的流星
再怎麼美麗也只能是曾經

太美的承諾因為太年輕
但親愛的那並不是愛情
就像是精靈住錯了森林
那愛情錯的很透明

那溫熱的牛奶瓶在我手中握緊
有你在的地方 我總感覺很窩心
日子像旋轉木馬 在腦海裏轉不停

你說過牽了手就算約定

就像來不及許願的流星
再怎麼美麗也只能是曾經

太美的承諾因為太年輕
但親愛的那並不是愛情
就像是精靈住錯了森林
那愛情錯的很透明

太美的承諾因為太年輕

就像是精靈住錯了森林
那愛情錯的很透明

They’re so pretty!

There’re so many places I want to visit before I die.

I want to see rice terraces. Back in Primary 6, when we had to practise for orals (I think), I read some script about rice terracing before, and thought they were really fascinating.

The Banaue Rice Terraces are SO PRETTY!! And I can’t imagine that they’re 2000 years old. =\

If only ancient cities were preserved, they’re my favourite part of History. Ahaha I remember taking History because I thought we’d be doing more of ancient history, but we ended up doing…. Revolutions and what not. Oh well, interesting but not that interesting. I don’t want to learn from their mistakes ^_^  I just want to know more about people way before things became the way they are now.

Fortresses are damn gorgeous! Hence, I have a list of places I want to visit before I die. Anyone who wants to join me is extremely welcome. Haha!

  1. Old Walled City of Shibam
  2. Bukhara
  3. Citadel of Aleppo
  4. Citadel of Salah Ed-Din
  5. Krak des Chevaliers
  6. Damascus
  7. Bosra
  8. Rohtas Fort
  9. Prambanan
  10. Choirokoitia
  11. Acre, Israel
  12. Himeiji Castle <- I’ve been there! ahaha
  13. Quseir Amra

But, there’s one place that I really really want to see. ^_^

Alberobello!
