A Wedding of Old Friends

I attended my secondary school friend Zhiguang's wedding. We were never that close and I remembered him mostly for sitting diagonally left in front of me, his unusual antics and his squeaky voice.

Maybe it's because I am getting older and missing the days gone by, I wanted to attend the wedding and offer my best wishes. Would you believe that he and his wife has knew each other since they were toddlers? Like a fairy tale.

At the wedding, a small group of us from different classes, were scattered about the same ballroom after so many years. We hadn't seen each other for years so it took some time to warm up to each other again. Despite the slow start, one by one, everyone began to draw towards the same table, just like when we streamed into the same classrooms.

That night, our table was the last to disperse. We went back to our familiar lives, until something else brings us together again.

I had just finished watching Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian and came across a great song by Regina Spektor, The Call, that perfectly compliments the night.




It started out as a feeling
Which then grew into a hope
Which then turned into a quiet thought
Which then turned into a quiet word

And then that word grew louder and louder
'Til it was a battle cry

I'll come back
When you call me
No need to say goodbye

Just because everything's changing
Doesn't mean it's never
Been this way before

All you can do is try to know
Who your friends are
As you head off to the war

Pick a star on the dark horizon
And follow the light

You'll come back
When it's over
No need to say good bye

You'll come back
When it's over
No need to say good bye

Now we're back to the beginning
It's just a feeling and now one knows yet
But just because they can't feel it too
Doesn't mean that you have to forget

Let your memories grow stronger and stronger
'Til they're before your eyes

You'll come back
When they call you
No need to say good bye

You'll come back
When they call you
No need to say good bye

McDelivery

I just called up for a McSpicy and McNuggets meal on McDelivery. The operator asked for my number and listed my address as Nanyang Crescent (that's my hostel address back when I was in University). This made me realised I hadn't ordered McDelivery for more than 2 years.

I am currently in the most terrible state as far as I know. I have exhausted all of my personal leave to study. However I am down with allergies and itching all over. On medication. The medication is sedating so I sleep 14hrs a day and remained dazed when awake. Having just began revising for an exam 3 days away.

Thus the requirement for a late night snack. McDelivery.

Oh how my life sucks. It's funny how life makes the arrival of McDelivery a shining moment. Excuse me whilst I weep buckets.

I HATE ALLERGIES.

Pineapple Express

Pineapple Express is awesome! I had no idea what to expect when I started the movie but things got rollin' from the moment Dale starts getting his weed from Saul.

Saul: Just sit back and get ready to enjoy some of the rarest weed known to mankind.
[he lights a joint and inhales]
Dale Denton: It's really that rare?
Saul: [exhales] It's, like, the rarest.
[he examines the joint]
Saul: It's almost a shame to smoke it. It's like killing a unicorn... with, like, a bomb.

Take a ride! On the Express!

Ailing's Pledge The Sequel

Another term has passed and off we go towards a new semester. I quoted what Ai Ling had to say for the upcoming term. By the way, here's what she said previously that we would do this term. No points for guessing how hard we worked.
