addiction

addiction. what a formal term to use to describe my obsession with television. ok, im not obsessed with the goggle box, more like addicted to the programmes it airs. i'll watch anything. anything at all. except foreign shows,unless their movies,or in french(with subtitles of course). anyhow, i proved my point today. woke up, attempted to study,ok...i really got some things into my thick skull today. coz i have invented a new study tactic for myself - READING ALOUD(and analysing aloud as well). seriously,it works. try it when no one's home. ahaha. so there i was, reading aloud,repeating the same garble over annd over, and there it sat. beautiful iron gray, smooth on one side, bulky on the next....decorated with medals and knick-knacks. omg...im in love with the tv in my living room. yes,that one, coz the one in my room aint got cable!!ahha. anyhow...i managed to fend of the temptation of switching it on - until my stupid brother came home. it's like a routine for him. he wld switch on the tv,channel surf for 15-20 mins,go and bathe,then either eat or go to his room and do god-knows-wad except to study. so there i sat. glued to my seat. 2 remotes in hand. ogling at the wonderful world of television. once there was nothing interesting on hbo/starworld/axn/hallmark, i would switch to nickolodeon/disney/cartoon network. by then, if those shows that i cringe at come on,i wld switch to the all-time unmovable channel - animal planet. i tell you, once i turn to '10',im stuck..i can just go..one animal aft another...mating/hunting/eating/healing, whatever. ok..enough about my crazy addiction.

my IE is not functioning at home..so a darl of a friend sent me this browser called "opera". pretty cool. so yeps...i have to check out my home internet system. darn this wireless home crap.

oh, i wanted to type smthg,but i forgot. hmm...*after a 23-min break*... ok..rmb that i wanted to say smthg? yeps...anyway..went out with rena for lunch on monday...caught 'the notebook' welll,like the book,the first few minutes were abitsy dull, but the end was pretty heart-wrenching. but i dont cry,so stop asking if i did.hah. oh!!! a guy sitting in front of us did though,but tt's not the funny part. when there was this awkward sex scene, he put his head in his tee, and stuck his fingers in his ears,and told his friends to tell him when it was over,coz he cldnt bear to see it. ahahhahaa. it was hilarious. ok...didnt mean to talk abt the cinema. saw alyssa from ij. rmb? the case of the 'hippo & friends' thingy in sec 3? ahahhaa. and a whole bunch of pple filled the corridor,just bcoz of smthg i said at a party. darn it. though it was kinda funny. anyhow, met her in heeren, and she seems all grown up. and the two of us cld carry out a decent conversation,without digging up the not too far past. it seems that,i dunno, despite what pettiness happened in the past,and htough we were never friends, sometimes, it's just comforting to see someone familiar amongst a sea of strangers i guess,no matter who they may be. im just glad that, on my part at least, i was mature enough to handle the situation.ok,it's not a situation speaking to her, but knowing my own ways, i wld have laughed and passed a funny/snide remark. but, i dunno...much has changed, and well...im getting tired of making fun of pple.most pple.well, with age comes maturity,and hopefully a little more wisdom. meeting alyssa set me thinking to where all the other pple are at this moment. as in my own batch of ij pple. u know, besides those i know of those who are overseas or in jc/poly, there are some which, simply vanished into thin air! thinking...whatever. not like im so free to go in search of pple,but yea. whatever.
