Last entry of April 2007.. If you look at life this way, everything is at its last occurence in reference to something. For example, this is the last entry of my last birth-month where I'm still under 20. Perhaps this is why we should spend each moment like its last and live like there is no tomorrow.
This thought occured when Derek asked me to get something to eat at Papermoon at midnight. And so we did, and it felt strangely like a dream looking back now. But my point is, who knows when we'd be eating there again. It is best to experience life at all means and all costs when we're young. That way, at least we won't run out of anecdotes to tell our grandchildren.

HKSA senior banquet was fun. I discovered many things tonight..one is that Ben Ngan is good at singing (no pun intended!) and enjoys doing so very much. Another is that Eleen likes to chew on celery for fun/to imitate her pet. The last one is that Derek manages to avoid singing even when his favorite song 童話 is playing.
More studying tmr! Don't let yourself down..I must fight on.

Waiting for you is the only reason I keep breathing.
I need to study until I die.

So, congrats to everyone who finished AL. Enjoy your holiday.
Meanwhile, I still have 4 exams scattered in two days next thursday and friday. What's after that? We'll see.

Happy birthday, Adrienne!
Diffeq midterm tmr. Hopefully there'll be little or none of Euler formula stuff. Wish me luck!

你說一個人的美麗是認真兩個人能在一起是緣份
早知道是這樣 如夢一場
我又何必把淚都鎖在自己的眼眶
讓你去瘋 讓你去狂
讓你在沒有我的地方堅強
讓我在沒有你的地方療傷

Meanwhile, today was another sunny and warm day. It was so nice that I went to the library to study math in B level. There was a slight leakage in the male bathroom there.. Anyway, since I could no longer stand the boredom of studying, I left soon afterwards and went bug catching with Lihan. It was quite fun indeed.
Sigh. Should I cut ties?

Popo, happy birthday!
非你莫屬 TANK
曲:TANK | 詞:陳信廷 | 編曲:洪敬堯懂得讓我微笑的人 再沒有誰比你有天份
輕易闖進我的心門 明天的美夢你完成
整個宇宙 浩瀚無邊的盡頭 每顆渺小星球 全都繞著你走
愛我 非你莫屬 我只願 守護 由你給我的幸福
愛我 非你莫屬 也許會 笑著哭 但那人是你所以 不怕苦
懂得讓我流淚的人 給的感動一定是最深
在我心中留下傷痕 你同時點亮了星辰
那麼多相遇 偏偏只和你 天造地設般產生奇蹟 哦
我心的縫隙 我想除了你 任誰也無法填補這空虛
但那人是你所以不怕苦 我不怕苦

Had my first ever fMRI scan today at Krieger Institute. Did I enjoy it? No, and I don't think most people do. Besides the loud, heater-cranking-up-like noise, I actually had to stay awake to respond to images shown on a screen. That made me feel a bit nauseated.
By the way, I didn't misspell a word. Did you think that I should have put "nauseous"? Well, you're wrong then. Traditionally, nauseated means "affected with nausea" while nauseous means "causing nausea". You can only be nauseous if you're causing someone to feel nauseated. Get it?

Unfortunately, the closest Ben & Jerry to us is in Inner Harbor, which requires a bus ride, so none of us went to take advantage of the offer.
The following only concerns mac users: do you ever try to open a file in Safari/Firefox, only to see it reading the code directly or playing the media file immediately instead of letting you download it? If yes, there's a small app under System/Library/CoreServices/VerifiedDownloadAgent.app that looks similar to the Safari download box, where you can simply drag the link of the file to it or paste the link on the active window to download it. Cool, ya?

Everyone, it's Ben & Jerry's free cone day tomorrow!
P.S. Only applies in US.

I feel horrible for being so succinct these two days, even though I've some very exciting things to show. So, hate me for saying this: I'm off to bed now. Good nite.

I am now a Mac user.

Oh my. Am I going to fail intro psych?!

So I was walking out of the bathroom after shower..
Then I saw people standing in front of my room with a birthday cake.
Am I dreaming?
The most precious gift I received today is an email from my grandmother in HK. Words can carry so much meaning.
As for my birthday wishes, besides doing well in school and growing 5 inches taller in the next 3 days, I wish that I could live happily and optimistically every day.
Thanks to everyone who made my birthday a memorable one.

Actually at this moment I am already 19. I was born in the morning. (Yay morning babies! ...) I feel enormously empty right now, devoid of emotions. Maybe it's because I don't feel like being 19 at all. Maybe it's because being 19 doesn't mean that much to me anyway.
Is this a birthday one that I didn't look forward to? Yes and no. When we are young we have huge desires of turning older, but some point in life you lose that anticipation. Okay, thats not only because we get more wrinkles..but also because the world around us become more complex. However, since it is unavoidable anyway, why don't we look forward to it?
I've rambled enough. Good nite all.

Happy Easter!
Woke up early (around 9) this morning to attend an Easter sunday service in Baltimore Basillica, which is the first cathedral in America. It was nice - haven't heard a decent live choir for a long while.
Woo HKSA election today. Congratulations to the two Amy's (together they took 1hr, while the remaining positions only took 30 mins..), and everyone else who got in the ex-co board.
三從四德
三從四德是古代女子的行為規範。所謂的三德是指「未嫁從父，既嫁從夫，夫死從子」，四德是指「婦德、婦言、婦容、婦功」，德為品德，容為容貌，言為言語，功指治家之道。

Today was an okay a relaxing fun day. In the afternoon, I watched Tada, Kimi wo Aishiteru with Lihan. Who is Lihan? He's non-existent. So forget about this name/person/thing/entity/matter. Oh, the movie was quite good, though boring at times..

Happy Birthday, Nick.

我只是看著你 瞭解的神情微笑揚起 又能繼續
有時候愛是一種眼神 趕走所有苦悶
是你讓我記得自己不是一個人
有你在甚麼都有可能 因為彼此信任
真的愛情不需要保證
那麼愛你為什麼 黃品源
詞: 李宗盛 | 曲: AHN JEUNG HUN | OS: 莫文蔚* 離開你是傻是對是錯
是看破 是軟弱
這結果 是愛是狠 或者是甚麼
如果是種解脫 怎麼會還有眷戀在妳心窩
那麼愛你 為甚麼? *
OS:從女性觀點讓我明白地說
無論你是挖心掏肺呼天搶地或是熱情如火
不只白白惹人討厭 讓人嫌你囉唆
恨不得沒跟你認識過
你講也講不聽聽又聽不懂 懂也不會做做又做不好
你現在唱個這樣的歌 你到底是想對我說甚麼?
# 面對陌生疑惑 肯定困難的生活
過去的日子 彷彿偷偷在笑我
笑我的落魄 也笑我的執著
也許吧 他愛妳比我多#
Repeat *
OS:有太多男女就像你就像我
年紀輕輕開始拍拖
純純的愛或者天雷地火
眼看卿卿我我 眼看情海生波
最終日子還得往下坡
你可以說我冷漠 或是怪我刻薄
我倒想等著看 你沒我能不能活
你現在唱個這樣的歌
你以為我們之間還會有甚麼?
Repeat # * *
