i was tempted to blog a couple of times since the last entry, but somehow they didnt materialise, obviously. have been spending the weekend sick, which totally sucks, and i guess the only highlight in this somewhat long break is the alumni gathering at the hml - i know the LIBRARY?! but since we havent been there in ages, it is somewhat cool to have it there and see how things have changed - for starters hullett's desk AND picture are gone, but other than that things havent changed much. physically. cant say the same for other things though, i think that things in school are changing way too fast. and that's the way education policies are, to keep pace with the ever changing challenges in society. ri and rj are merging next year, which should be interesting, but it's funny how things are going back how they were in the 1980s - well, just an observation.

all in all, it was great fun, seeing people you dont really know but kinda share some kind of bond together; or perhaps being able to meet up with people you know alright, but always needed an excuse to catch up with. it's a case of i have always wanted to know how soandso is doing, but we havent been close, so it would be weird for me to just call him and talk to him.

have been treated to some visual spectacles lately - the bj olympics & spore's ndp, and as usual, the fireworks were great treats. although there's nothing like watching them live, which gives one a huge sense of liberation and fascination.

have just finished jodi picoult's the pact, which was a decent read, although i did find it a little boring - the usual picoult fare that has somekind of big hullaballu happening at the beginning to shatter people's perfect lives and lead people finding out more about themselves and their relationships with their loved ones. then it would snowball into a trial, where we will see a twist! nevertheless, like i said, it was a decent read, as it reminds us of how we can never know a person "so well", as we often say of or to a good friend, even if that person is someone you love deeply or grew up with; aside from ideas of marriage, legal system and change.

watched journey to the centre of the earth on tues thanks to sj, and i must say it was a short movie, which meant they could tighten the plot to make it fast-paced. it was also very predictable, and a tad fake, so it didnt appeal to the intellectual side of me. haha but it was great entertainment nevertheless. and i liked how they tied in jules verne's book into the modern context. so yea, a 3-star movie i guess. haha.

and hurray i have just started watching season 4 of grey's - a pity addison left cos i really liked her. and of course burke. but generally i though it has been great thus far, esp how they open and close the shows.

Forgive & forget. That's what they say. It's good advice, but it's not very practical. When someone hurts us, we want to hurt them back. When someone wrongs us, we want to be right. Without forgiveness, old scores are never settled and old wounds never heal. And the most we can hope for is that one day we'll be lucky enough to forget.

it's from ep 4 i think i cant remember. and i like it, reminds me of the moor hse play in sec 4. the whole if you cannot forgive, forget.

i think i am beyond caring now, at least i hope that i dont care at all, it is the best way to move forward.
