three-day weekends.
Sunday, March 8, 2009
Tomorrow is a holiday! Just the thought of it makes me want to, like Lily's blog says, wiggle my toes and swoon. I mean, it's a Monday, and it's a holiday! Even better so since there are exams on Tuesday. One extra day to sleep in and stuff myself on the butter toffees I found in the cupboard study. Hang the fact that I have two tuitions tomorrow, it's a holiday! Three-day weekends should be made a necessity. How could anyone not be in favor of that? And yes, I did skip school on Saturday, which qualifies it as a three-day weekend for me. Say what you want! I bet less than half my class turned up on Saturday! It's three-day weekends all around! But come to think of it, THIS particular three-day weekend is ruining our mid-term holidays for us. Not so good, I guess. And, I DID study today, I swear. Physics, Add Maths, Chemistry and Sejarah. Just a reflection. If all those tokoh-tokoh pejuang negara had foreseen what kind of country we would become thanks to all those politicians mucking around nit-picking in parliament, ruining the country's image and, on the whole, not getting very much done, would they have fought as hard, or sacrificed as much for Tanah Melayu? I don't know but it seems like a wasted effort to me. Another take on the old lie: Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori. On another note, guess what? I, Louise Tan, have only sent 252 text messages this week. Come on, tell me that's not bad compared to the 800++ that I usually send. I've totally reduced my dependency on my handphone! To all text junkies who claim they can't live without their mobile phones: yahbooooo, sucks to you. I'm saving ten bucks a week on credit. Beat that. :P By the end of Lent I shall be rich and be able to go shopping while the rest of you sit at home broke. Nyahahhaha. Okay gotta go write proposal, write essay, and study. PS: Don't tell anybody about the butter toffees! They're mine now!
INTRODUCING
Name: Louise
13 April 1992
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.
*GRINS* :D
