Random Rambles



*Cough cough* It's been ages since my last blog post, and the place's filthy with dust particles and cobwebs. Might need some "spring cleaning" from now on.. ^w^


Alright then.. Ironically upon commencement of the summer holidays, I've been looking forward to come back to Aust yet things have changed now. I dread to go back. It's only been the second week of the semester and I have already felt the pressure and stress pouring in. Fear of maybe overlooking the due dates of assessments and end up with late submissions, not being able to concentrate and flunking everything at the end of the semester etc etc. The first few days following his absence had been appallingly horrendous accompanied by isomnia and angst. I'd say I've practically lost the purpose of living back then. We're separated even further now by geological distance, time zone and pursuit, but I hold strong faith in believing he is right beside me at all times. To hear me out. To cheer me on. To back me up. And most importantly, to love me evermore! (Is that right, soh zhu zhu?)


If mum's here, I'd be nagged to death for staying up late every night. Keep it a secret for me k? I don't want her to worry. It's not easy being the eldest.


An interesting short article came across @ Yahoo! Think might shed some light for the guys.. Enjoy!


5 Things you should NEVER say to Her


By Sarah Miller


Women freak out. Often at you. Often for no discernible reason.



You say something that you consider totally innocuous, or even downright nice, only to find that you've offended, enraged, or annoyed us. But here's a problem you can solve: word choice.



You need to know the phrases that, once introduced to her volatile atmosphere, will result in explosion (or quiet contempt—no picnic either). Then you need to strike them from your vocabulary.



Warning: Some of these absolute no-no words and phrases seem so incredibly harmless, you may think we're kidding. We're not.




FORBIDDEN PHRASES


  1. "Relax"
  2. "I love you" (During a fight)
  3. "It's up to you"
  4. "You knew I was this way.."
  5. "[Nothing]"


MAGIC WORDS

  1. "Just tell me everything"
  2. "You are just so beautiful"
  3. "Sorry. It was my fault"
