Song: Keishou no Izumi
by: Juka

*random*
Listening to Juka reminds me that he and I share the same birth date. q<


Ironman-ing with the gang later!
But will be sitting alone because of...erm, my stupidness :)
It's ok, i've watched movies alone before so i'm not really too bothered by it.
Just hope that there won't some weird people sitting beside me.


I'm seriously slacking ne?
Honestly i'm too lazy to write crap for the TRIF proposal. Think i will be sleeping darn late tonight. Well i'll be fine if i upload before 9am on Fri.

Seriously, i should stop blogging about my life so often.
Hah.
And seriously, i should catch up on my reading. Looks like people around me are avid readers and they put me to shame =(
Well, for starters, i should read books/ writers recommended by anis and nettie :)
Murakami Haruki huh?
Went to TP library early yesterday before my TRIF started just to find books from her and it turned out that TP has VERY poor collections of Murakami.
Maybe regional library would have fare better.

I should ask around for depressing book plots too. Biographies would be good. Chinese Cinderella made me cry like a tap. Think i finished the book in like 2 days?
Our lit books were rather good too, except that i don't like the idea of being tested on the books.

Clay Marble made me cry too but i had to do it secretly because i was in class =P

Basically i don't have extreme hate-ness for reading. I'm just picky about the books i read. Actually, one of the goals in my life is to read a chinese book/novel and a japanese one. Hahaha. If my japanese is good enough to understand what they are trying to say, that is.
My chinese is actually quite ok (i hope so) but if i don't do anything about it, i think it will start to "degrade" soon enough.
I think i got A1 for Chinese in O Levels ^^
But then again, the Chinese standard here is not really that high. Hahaha.
I can't spout idioms in every sentence I make. I only remember part of idioms, not the whole. lol.

So, my bottom line is, if i don't read more (no matter what kind of langauges), my command of English (and hence, i'm trying very hard not to put Singlish on my blog unless i really wanted to create some dramatic effect), Chinese and probably Japanese will fail like hell.
Oh, i haven't talk about my command of Cantonese eh?
That can't be help. I can't read Cantonese. I can only practice (or practise? I think it's the first one lol) it with my parents and aunt, and grandma. And watching more HK shows raw might help too. Haha.

Hmm so i think i can forget about picking up Thai from my dad. Just let him do all the communications if we ever go for holiday in Thailand.
I'm hopeless in my dialect, Fuzhou, because i have never hear people speaking in it before =3

My last words in 12:49 PM.
