thinking i made a bad choice doesn't mean i regret doing so

i never planned to come uot. actually chose mcmaster over uoft :P which made my dad freak out. but now i'm here, 'cause i got rejected by mcgill D:

don't like this school. it's like back to the same rgs sentiments. awesome friends, but just disgusting administration system. but at least uoft has good profs!

but i don't regret coming here :D manage to join so many interesting stuff, though the number of friends hasn't exceeded my ten fingers, but the amount of programs offered is just amazing! still deciding what subject POSts i should take next year (majors)... i think most prob doing global health, which focuses more on the developing countries. I always find the inequality between countries so obscene. i'm not the idealist that think inequality or poverty can be eradicated. but there are obvious flaws in the global systems that are just constantly trying to put down the less privileged. not as if humans are gonna be on earth forever. we will face extinction. on a smaller time frame, all of us will die anyways, so what for grab all the privileges and wealth. all the selfishness makes me sick. talking about all this just makes me so disappointed, we have seemed to moved backwards though technology has improved so much.

second major? environmental conservation? i'm steering towards animal conservation. i can't believe people are still eating shark fin, or buying stuff from the black market which do not even have any medicinal value (contrary to the popular beliefs). the number of animals on the list listed as endangered or extinct is just staggering. you may say it's survival of the fittest, if so, why not just let sick people die. seriously... i don't get why people think homo sapiens are freakin awesome, that we have consciousness and whatsoever. homo sapiens ARE animals.

i don't think i can make a huge difference to the whole, but at least i wanna try to convince the people around me, and do my own little part in making the world a better place, for the animals and the future generations

for my piz - chinese new year!

omgosh i think this is the first time i played so much before an exam. hmmm, played as in go out and slack! back in singapore, it's more of going for squash, piano etc etc. but OMGOSH i went out on friday, saturday and sunday! and actually slacked my whole monday away too when psych is on tues :P

new year resolution: not to spend money on birthdays, but instead to make diy stuff for my wonderful friends!

chinese new year resolution was to save moneyz. spending too much of my dad's money D: i'm just very unhappy about how uoft sucks so much money out of students. RARRR. SO, partly because that my dad is gonna be unhappy if i have too much meals left (210 meals left currently, started out with 330 meals in sept 2010), i have been eating in residence every meal. omgosh sad life. good food, but can't hang out with friends for meals! and have to wake up early in the morning just for breakfast D: luckily bethany (my singaporean floormate) is here to have meals with me :D always end up talking over dinner/lunch for 1 hour :P

soooo i guess i'm gonna try to finish uni in 3 years! wanna get outta uoft soon, and i guess that saves me some money too! HOWEVER that means i'm not gonna be able to go back to singapore during summer D: i will miss my cute rgs friends D: CRIES.

whoosh back to the cny celebrations!! pardon my incoherent-ness. psych making me going psycho.

FRIDAY: omgosh played squash :D:D then went for the MSSA dinner with beth, zinc and fiona :D knew a few other people there. then went back to hart house to play card games. games are like the best way to get to know people!! everyone in mssa is just so nice :D and so homey :D

SATURDAY: studying psych.... and then yongsheng and joshua came over after dinner to eat the cny goodies my mummy and daddy sent over :D bethany came to my room too!! omgosh hanged out till 2am :P it was fun just slacking and talking crap, besides the fact that they insists that the poster with the eyes (samurai-looking person) was a GUY. and i always thought it was a girl! HOW FREAKY. i may take it off soon. whoosh. and i can't believe people don't know that the pink part of bouganvillae is THE LEAF. LOL and yong sheng actually crossed the nanyang-hci bridge for dunnoe how many years seeing the bouganvillae... -.-

SUNDAY: went out with EVERYONE :D but went to study psych after the dim sum lunch while the rest went to watch green hornet. then had dinner at chinatown! and it was snowing fluffy snow!! snowballed here and there (: then went to wayne's place to play pictonary and charades till 1am. omgosh like 3 consecutive days of fun! awesome :D

MONDAY: hehheh which is today!! omgosh i love the kindergarten kids. though it's hard to teach them, playing with them is another story. went out into the snow and played with them :D they make awesome snowman, they were actually teaching me how to make one!! hehe. and the little boy called nathan was wearing this shirt with hamtaro on it!! and i asked him if he liked it. and he pointed to it and said that he likes it. and pointed to me and said 'i like you too!' OMGOSHHH. melts. SOOO CUTEE. and he gave me a little hug!! whoosh! soooooo cute!! :D:D he's the cutest thing ever!! and went to other classes, since i switch classes every 40 mins. everytime i switch classes, some of the kids will be so sad and will come hug me!! omgosh i bet i got like at least 10 hugs today :D hehheh. went back to uot, passed pete some bagua, and then skipped tutorials to review psych... but ended up going to build snowman with renhui, joshua and yong sheng! the snow wasn't really packing snow, but we managed to build one!! shall upload pics if renhui send me some :D:D cold but fun :D my first real big snowman! :D:D right in the middle of uot :D

TUESDAY: doomsday. psych.

went skiing at chicopee with anson eason glenn and owen! the FLUFFY SNOW. IT'S SO FLUFFY I WANNA DIE. yeah really dying. like seriously, fluffy snow is fun and nice and soft, but I CAN'T BREAK ON IT. fell so many freakin times!! but at least we did all the trials and even did the black diamonds, though that's like the blue trials on blue mountain :P hehheh. now i'm aching like hell, i think there's sth wrong with my knee D: though no bruise, but i guess that seems scarier when there's no visible wound D: my neck and waist are just SORE. LOL but i think the guys who snowboarded are in much worse conditions :P really thank aunty shirley for letting all of us stayover at her house and sending us back and fro chicopee after our epic can't-find-the-bus-home event. whoosh.

SOPHIA NG

had a nice long weekend this week :D thurs was half day and fri was a holiday!!

went out on thurs after school with fiona. the rest went toronto, not my type of place ): hehe. walked to square one which only took us 1 hour!! as compared to owen and chris who took 3 hours -.- they kinda walked in circles, but square one is just straight down... poof. reached square one finally and i went to send my letters that were rejected and sent back to me. then went to shop for glenn's stuff. POOOF. it's like IMPOSSIBLE to shop for glenn or for guys.

went to have dinner with wayne and szeying at international food court again. like third time eating there in less than 2 weeks or sth :P CHEAP AND GOOD. 6 bucks for SOOO MUCH. the pork bone soup is awesome. but if i go there too often i'll get sick of it :P

then friday was a HOLIDAY :D i kinda forgot what i did. HMMMM. OHOH. we ate out at this korean restaurant :D SOO GOOD. but glenn and i played badminton before that and school dinner was so appealing that we decided to eat a bit of school food. steamed fish and honey wings. omg. BEST DINNER EVER. ended up taking 3 refills :P so by the time we went to the korean place, wayne duane glenn and i just shared one meal. AHAHAH.

we walked there from school, not too far actually. and the weather was really nice :D and POOOF. glenn totally helped me crack my upper back just it's like he had to lift me up from the back. omggg. when i tried doing it for him since he's like the old man who always have backaches, i couldn't even grab his whole arm. poof :D JENNIFER LOW, when i get back i can help you do it!! it looks much cooler than your on-the-floor-then-i-crack-one :D:D

man duane is so funny. he actually plays chopstick with me!! CHILDHOOD MEMORIES :D if i were to ask others, they'll say i'm crazy or childish -.- hehheh. he looked so tired so i told him some jokes which he felt so lamed.

"what is softer than a sponge?"

blank faces....

(whisper) "sponge"

omggg....

hehheh :D asked him the shakespeare one and the microwave one too :D:D I LOVE JOKES. just that we have more inside jokes than lame jokes.

walked back to school and went to macs. but ice cream was soooo ex. mcflurry was 4 bucks when it's 2 singapore dollars in singapore =( then went Rabba to buy ice cream :D:D hehe. stayed in the cafeteria playing tap tap and listening to szeying play the piano while WAYNE SINGS ALONG.

can't believe duane and glenn hasn't played tap tap before!! duane wayne. confusing names.

then YESTERDAY was another epic adventure. glenn used his "i'm leaving already so we much go out together" reason, convincing us to go out for dinner AGAIN. this time duane brought us to this jap restaurant which is far out but really nice. so we took the bus there. took us 1 hour though!! SO HUNGRY, was dying on the way there :D but when we reached, man it was soo nice :D love the sweet potato tempura. ohoh and as usual i didn't bring cash so fiona lent me :D:D

but we all got soooo full that it was PAINFUL. AHAHHA. when we went out, yiyang just puked his ice cream out and ran away screaming!! like OKAY, first time see such a reaction for puking. and sick glenn went to look at it and saw a freaking mushroom!! EWW. glenn totally felt like puking too. and when we were running for the bus he was like fanning himself and running like white chicks on heels!! so bad. fiona and i was laughing badly. OH and i tried to piggy back glenn!! AHAHHA, at least he didn't puke on me!

oh. and i used the bodyshop mango body lotion becky gave me. she's so sweet :D:D it REALLY SMELLS LIKE MANGO. and now glenn uses it too and we smell alike -.- aveline's using some blueberry one?? i'm not sure!! and szeying i bet she's using strawberry or sth. poof. fruit paradise.

on the bus back all the guys started feeling sick. eric was making weird puking noises while glenn was just dead beside me. and whenever fiona does something to him he'll say anything will trigger him to puke now. LOL. guys.... then anticlimax duane asked, "anyone hungry?". POOF. he got off at his house there though. i wanna go to his house one day, look so awesome :D:D maybe after APs (:

walked back to school instead of transfering to another bus since we were all sooo full. szeying and yiyang took the bus back though. then we decided to play badminton :D fiona was tired so she didn't come down and was half asleep by the time i came up. played a bit of badminton but switched to basketball after a while.

played with glenn till 12.30am, more of talking though!! and this guy offered us pizza!! and I REALLY WANTED IT, but i know i'm too full so we rejected it ): poor pizza.

went up to room, bathed, and slept :D

FINALLY. HAPPY BIRTHDAY SOPHIA NG. okay, hopefully you pick up your phone (:
