when the dust settles

I do appreciate consolation and kind words from friends, but I also know very well that statements along the lines of "never mind, it's over, don't think about it anymore" don't work much for me. At random moments like when I'm in bed and just about to fall asleep, unpleasant/ demoralising thoughts still haunt me. I don't deliberately nurse those thoughts; they just come and go. Deep down, I'm dreading 22 Dec. I wish I'd gladly forget about the release of results, like I did during summer break, and only realise it on the day itself :(

BUT BUT BUT, soooo happy to be meeting up with my buddies this week! Tim said he went skiiing in korea and im DEAD JEALOUS :(((( Well nvm I'm glad he's happy getting his snow (haha!). I'm grateful for the most awesomest company! Finally tried reverse bungee with kais :D We wanted to do something crazy. And we've student discounts so we thought okay why not. It turned out to be the scariest thing ever! For me, at least. The staff apparently full advantage of the fact that I was so freaked out the moment I got strapped in, they started telling me things like it's 100 times worse than any ride at genting themeparks etc (x TOTALLY psyched me up huh.

The seats were slightly tilted backwards at first. Then at the count of 2 (not even 3!) the thing shot up and the pressure was immense! Everything happened so quickly. One moment we were slammed back into our seats, the next moment we were thrown forward. And back again. My eyes were teary the moment I opened them, in mid-air, and I don't know why. My heart was at my throat, and I prolly screamed and cursed more than I should amidst all the action (x It was rather embarrassing that everything was captured on video, which we actually bought for 15 bucks and is currently in kai's possession haha. The first thing I said when we finally got lowered down was, I couldn't believe I just paid 30 bucks to do that! And the staff jokingly refused to let me out. Ohman. We were strangely exhausted thereafter. I'm glad we tried it nonetheless! :D

Oh and met up with qin today before she left for chengdu :) We spent HOURS talking about everything under the sun over sushi at hollandv. Just like the old days. It was raining and we were too lazy to go anywhere else thereafter so we just hung out at some void deck (x Can't wait for cherl to come back from norway so we can all finally catch another movie! The last one we watched together was I am Legend or something hahaha such a long time ago!

More hothotHOT dates coming up, can't wait :D
