spread out.
went for edb interview today. i don't think i did too well, although i still think the interviewer was kinda happy with me. very nice lady. hopefully i'll be that bubbly and easy to talk to next time when i go into uni/working world. gotta work at it. urgh.
anyway. after that spent an hour wandering around raffles city talking to chin ee and trying to find a place to eat, but the whole place was ridiculously full so i ended up drinking a double ice macchiato at starbucks (which is really good.. anything with more coffee is good ^^"). anyway it tasted like there was definitely more than one shot extra. but then i ordered the regular rather than the medium.. which got me thinking.. that means that perhaps if you order a larger cup all you get is extra milk.. how cheap is that.
anyway. touched the piano today. felt pretty good. even though it didn't sound too good. i actually managed to get 45 min in before i got too tired of my lousy playing. gotta slowly work back my skills. haha. it was a pretty good form of relaxation.
bought an andrea bocelli cd today. wasn't really worth the money i think.. all the tracks kinda sound the same. haven't looked at the bonus dvd yet. maybe it'll be more interesting.
i need to get in shape. but then again, i've been saying that ever since sec 1. and that was a REAALLY long time ago. maybe i'll go for a run or a swim tomorrow. or maybe both. but then again i shouldn't overdo it. that's probably my problem. exercising and playing the piano comes in bouts, and isn't consistent. these two activities feel more like the common cold.. comes in bouts and goes away. oh well.
thinking about something i should have really left behind a long time ago already. and it really feels crappy. for whatever reason.
i need another glass of vodka.

is it march or december?
... is a very important question, especially since it's been raining (pouring actually) practically non-stop for the past week or so.
saw the search for selamat still going on today as i went towards SAFTI MI... all the police special ops standing along mandai road looking into the forest. which really makes me wonder.. are they expecting selamat to run out by himself?? or are there actually teams searching through inside? and then i started thinking about all the freak weather we've been having (the rain lar duh) and (me being a converted conspiracy theorist) suddenly had a brainwave.
maybe they're literally trying to FLUSH selamat out.
mwahaha. isn't that ingeneous!? ring the jungle with personnel, then make the jungle as wet and uncomfortable as possible for a man with a limp and probably no change of clothing. then, when he really can't take sleeping in the rain every night, he might just surrender himself and go back to the
hotel detention camp he came out from. OR..
they might just create a mudslide and flush him out that way.
okay jokes aside.
selamat really is taking his own sweet time getting caught. i hope that isn't because the police are taking their own sweet time catching him. even though i know the gahmen says he's not dangerous.
of course, i have another conspiracy theory on his disappearance. but i won't post it here. you can ask me about it if you want. haha.
okay i have 2 weeks left (less.. 11 days!) to decide the rest of my life. and it's proving as difficult a challenge as it sounds (and i'm blogging. what does that tell you about procrastination? haha). but i've narrowed down my choices to aeronautical engineering or physics/theoretical physics (of course the first option is way more likely but well.. why not?), and if i can i'd like to take a double degree in engineering and econs (NTU and NUS offer, but overseas unis seem reluctant to offer this). scholarship-wise, i still need to do research on a few organisations to make sure i really wanna be bonded to them for 6 years (and so that i have fodder for my interviews if i apply and succeed), and all that has to be done only at night, and at most only for 2-3 hours. phaw. maybe i'll just use the weekend. but then that's just procrastinating again.
another long rambly post. i'm getting good at this. haha.
