okay finally i'm done with the exams yesterday.

but today was spent painting my room with my mom. now it looks really good with a fresh coat of paint, although the blue is abit too blue, almost looking like baby blue. the paint colour is called skylight anyway. so the shade of blue is brighter than the previous one. haha i can't help just looking at how fresh the walls look now.

and yesterday after the paper, i joined some of them for a short karaoke session in town. i can't sing for nuts really, but heck. it's always fun to karaoke once in a while, although i would never know what malay songs they would be singing. some of the old ones i would probably find familiar, but the more recent ones are really alien to me. haha. well when my jc class had karaoke sessions last time they always sang chinese songs. haha. but either way it's always fun to sing, or rather croak , my heart out.

and the exams have been really shitty. the papers haven't been good to me, and i could also feel that my revision was not effective at all. it really is worse than last semester, so since all have been wrapped up let's just say all i can do is pray and hope for the best. the main theme is damage limitation.

so now in this short few days, it's all going to be such a rush. another round of painting tomorrow, then going out on thursday and friday. thn saturday night till tues its off to malaysia. next friday to sunday is training camp. and i need a job to fill up the coffers. its really times of recession. inflation at 6.7% and the crazy rise in rice and petrol prices is no joke. looks like i need to reject offers to go on trips to bangkok then.

the other day on the train i saw this girl. she was about 5 or 6 i think? but she's such a poor thing. she had a tube inserted into her left nostril, then she's on this custom-made pram. she seems very immobile, as she was emotionless. her pupils were always looking upwards, so much so that you could only see half of her pupils. then her mouth was always open and kept hugging this soft toy of hers. i think she had a prosthetic left leg but i couldn't be sure. so poor thing. the girl really couldn't talk or show simple expressions. all the time she just stared blankly to the ceiling. i wonder what condition she has. it's quite saddenning. she's only a kid and she's already like this. i wonder how other kids who might suffer from even more chronic conditions are like. it was really something. sometimes one questions why some are born with such conditions and have to go through alot at such a young age. maybe the answer should be so that one could appreciate how healthy one is born, and really thankful for that. oh well, i wouldn't know.

okay that is all. really full of random thoughts.
