The Rogers Indicator of Multiple Intelligences

I just realised that it has been like forever since I wrote anything here… So, I was reading a friend’s blog and I came across this post which I felt was interesting, and here’s the result…

American Idol voters are tone deaf

Would someone please tell me how is it that Jason Castro is STILL in the competition??!

Brooke White and Carly Smithson got voted out before him?! This is too much….

People… Wake up lar…. -_-

Please NOT vote for Jason anymore… It’s getting so painful to listen to him that I have to switch channels when he comes on…

To Brooke, if you ever read this, know that it so wasn’t your time to go… I’ll miss watching/listening to you! Can’t wait to hear your CD! ;)

Directionless…

Over the past few weeks, I had been very distracted.. Not with work, but with rubbish, which I will not be listing out.. ;p

As much as I wish for the exams to come and go, I can’t imagine myself sitting for the exams right now… I think I might as not take the papers… yes.. plural… However, after a reality check, I need to do this..

After receiving my German Oral grading, I think can only hope for a C in that subject.. As for the rest, which are my core modules, starting Wednesday, that’s when the madness really starts.. In fact, I should start the madness now… I still haven’t touched on three of the modules… YES, I’m beyond screwed…

However, even though I know all this, here I am, typing about it.. What’s wrong with me? I guess I find myself losing all drive.. All my classmates had expected me to be in the library everyday studying, as I’ve done so in the past, but these days, I had been at home… studying partially…

Anyway, I went to a nearby playground just now to have a light workout, except that the place was totally dark! haha.. yes.. lame… but it’s 3am… Anyway, as I entered the place, I found this guy sleeping on the sit-up bench… I had planned on using it… WTH… -_-

But what has become of Singapore? Are such "displaced" people the new problem of our country? I hope that my call to the National Parks to have some of the lights kept on throughout the night gets heard. Maybe it’ll drive him and future shady people from coming near again.. Then again, he may be who I become in the future…

Suddenly, that vision of jumping off an overhead bridge and landing in front of an 18-wheeler, which I had a few days ago, doesn’t seem so bad..

Queen Diva is everywhere…

I know I blogged about her in my previous entry, but I just couldn’t help noticing that she’s everywhere over the past two weeks…

After Touch My Body shot to #1 two weeks ago, she’s been on the news and all sorts of television programmes… She was on Idol Gives Back, the charity program organised by the smart American Idol team, and she performed Fly Like A Bird, which was from The Emancipation of Mimi, fantastically excellent! This week she was on Oprah and American Idol again, as a mentor to the contestants. Her new album, E=MC2 (which actually means "Emancipation of Mariah Carey to the second power"), was just released the previous day, and it made news after only one day of sales, as the album shifted 154,000 copies, making it’s way to debut at #1 by the time it enters the charts..

At 38, this diva has certainly lived up to her status.. I watched the recent videos of her on Orpah and she is just on top of the world..

One can either hate or love her… I choose the latter… ;)

Mariah’s 18th

Yay!! My music idol scores her 18th #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with Touch My Body!!

If you don’t know yet, this puts her ahead of Elvis "The King" Presley (17 #1s), and just behind The Beatles (20 #1s).

Of course, we all know that this is a different age, especially since this song shot to #1 due to the 286,000 downloads made. However, a #1 is still a #1.. haha..

Can’t wait for her new album to drop this month… ;)

Hui Kai is sooo blur….

So embarassing… I reached my student’s home this morning only to be reminded by his mother that I’m only supposed to have tuition in the evening…

I was basically 9 hours too early, when I thought that I was 30mins late…

BAHHH…. -_-

My only comfort is that Miss Ang does the same too… hahahaha.. ;p

Celebity tragedy

How sad that celebrities are facing such crazy problems.. You’d think that such drama only exists in fiction…

Heath Ledger… This guy had SO much promise! I still can’t believe that he’s dead… What a shame… Life’s so short.. As his death was so sudden, it’s certainly affected those who knew him personally, ie. Michelle Williams, Jake Gyllenhaal, etc…

Britney Spears… I do hope that she’s going to get better soon… It’s bad enough the media keeps publising all the horrible stories, it’s going to be worse if she ends up like Heath…

Amy Winehouse… There’s been fewer news of her, which is good, I hope… Like Britney, I hope she gets better soon… I hate to continue feeling disappointed with her…

Eva Mendes… I had no idea that she was facing problems too.. An article suddenly surfaced about her trying to work out some "issues".. Hope all goes well for her…

I’m sure that there are others, but these are the few that have been headlining the news over the past few weeks..

As for us, ordinary folk, I hope everyone’s doing great and problem free… If not, everything will work out fine… Just got to ride it out…

Take care! ^_^

Start of the frenzy!

I can foresee an extremely busy 4 months ahead.. I’m sooooooo dead… I wish I can have the means to escape to some foreign place and not have to care about all the stress that would eventually build to the point of making me walk into female toilets again… ;s

Well, hopefully it won’t come to that.. o_@

Not so fantastic start to 2008

Simply because I’m starting out the New Year broke.. haha..

Yes, meaning that I don’t really have money to have as much fun as I’d like before school starts and I go back to being a nerd… haiz…

And also, I was supposed to enter the National Singles Lawn Bowling competition, but the co-ordinator didn’t read the e-mail in time to submit my name for entry.. haiz..

The last one is finding out that I didn’t not get through to the quarter-finals of TalentQuest.. haiz.. I should have known.. If Jessica could not make it, I stand a lower chance.. ;(

Oh wells.. Hopefully, the school semester would be kinder.. However, I realised like last week, that I’d have two horrible days every week.. ie. My Mondays and Thursdays are both 8am-8pm..

YES.. You did NOT read wrongly.. I have lessons from 8am-8pm!

BUT I just found out like 3 days ago, that my 8am lectures would be webcasted.. So, I may not die of exhaustion.. yet.. But I’ll try out the lectures over the first two weeks and see how they go.. o_O

Wish me luck!

Ooh! I just realised that today is day that I can take down my provisional driving plate! yay! ^_^

Had a Peeping good Show!

I think this is the first time I went to watch PeepShow play live in public.. The only other time was in a function room in Phoenix Hotel.. haha..

Anyway, they were simply perfect! Their performance was tight and the songs were great! Their energy was off the roof! I know because I made the bad choice of touching Mikail’s shoulder after his performance and he was beyond wet.. GROSS..

Anyway, after that, Liang Hong, Karthik and I decided to stay on, whereas Muggerita and Xian Wen went off, I think.. Anyway, it’s most likely they did, as I’m sure Muggerita still had energy in her to shop some more.. Especially since she said that she’s been sleeping for 12hrs a day.. @_@

The band after PeepShow, Comic Strip, was just as good! Different style of music, rather smooth R&B with some reggae mix… I think they averaged out to be of 17 years-old, and announced to their individual schools that they’d be performing there tonight, because there was a sea of humans bouncing about in front of the stage! Some were even bouncing on the shoulders of their peers!

However, we wanted to have a change of scene, especially since the PSI there was getting higher by the minute, and so we went for a movie.. Turns out that GV Marina was only screening 4 films tonight and 3 of which had only the front row left for their earliest screenings.. However, National Treasure: Book of Secrets had plenty of seats, and so we went for it! A little impulsive, but WHATEVER..

The movie turned out to be fine.. Entertaining but brainless.. So brainless that I totally didn’t realise that it was 0010 when the show ended, and that I’d most probably had to take a Night Rider… However, as we got to the bus stop at the Esplanade, 133 arrived! I ran like a fool towards it, feeling bad that I left my friends behind like that, and wondered when I boarded the bus if I had gotten on the correct direction. haha.. Well, it turned out to be the correct one, and here I am now, at home, hungry and ending this entry..

Goodnight..
