The Law of Exams states that the concentration of exams is directly proportional to the concentration of distractions available on the entertainment front such as books, videos, games, events, TV shows and movies. i.e. when there are no exams there will be hardly any distractions of the sort. And when exam season hits, distractions proliferate. This law is applicable universally to all sorts of exams.
Almost one year on, the video of the cast of Glee performing Don’t Stop Believing still cheers me up every single time I watch it.
I just realized that I really, really, really like lemons. Though I can’t eat lemons just like that. Nobody in their right mind could. But I love how a little bit of lemon juice, added to most things, can make such a big difference. Think about sprinkling lemon juice on your fish and chips, or the slice of lemon in a mocktail. Even a little bit of lemon juice and thin shreds of lemon skin added to plain water can make it a refreshing drink. No sugar needed. Lemons may be sour but the sourness is refreshingly tangy. I like pineapples too for the same reason but they’re nowhere as zesty as lemons.
So how can I ever be upset if life gives me lemons?
I’ve given you one of my favourite songs, and one of my favourite pictures. Now I’m going to share one of my favourite videos.
The man in the short film is so cheerful, it’s inspiring. :)
I have got a lot on my mind regarding university applications. I know exactly what I want to apply for and where I want to do it. But I am also determined to do a gap year, and I’m not sure if I should apply to university this year or wait till next year. Anyone want to offer me advice on this? :/
PS: One thing about not putting my thoughts in point form is that it makes the post look a lot less hodgepodge than it really is.
You can only call me Lulu if you don’t think the name’s funny.
I am a member of the Smiley Conspiracy and a proud ex-CHS-ian, graduating class of 2009. Now doing A-Levels at HELP University College. Is proudly Malaysian, but doesn’t look like it and is proud of that too.
This is the 7th time I am editing this about section of the blog this year; I have sort of accepted that my personality is ever-evolving, ever-changing, therefore rendering my moods as volatile as the weather. But just as there are some things that have stood untouched across the centuries by harsh weather, so there are some things with me that remain ever the same: a belief that to live is to learn, and the ability to bounce back from setbacks.
What I love also remains constant. I love good food, dancing, fresh experiences, open minds and friendly people, all of which can be found in the wonderful wonderful city that is Istanbul. I love musicals, plays, good books, stickers, owls, colourful wrapping paper, hugs and kisses, chocolates, almost any music from the 17th to the 21st century, intense debates and post-it notes.
Fictional characters I have been compared to (in terms of personality) are Piglet from Winnie The Pooh and Kelsi from High School Musical.
I dream of finishing this list [29/8/2010: list is undergoing revamp!], and my secret ambition is to become a hairdresser or bartender. Unfortunately I’m also incredibly kiasu, so I’m going to go to university just to show everyone that I can. But want to go to uni also because I love learning lah!
Words that describe me are impulsive, impetuous, quixotic, sanguine, quirky, bewildered, kiasu and hodgepodge. The last one also refers to my sense of fashion.
