I have not felt this lousy for quite some time. And right now I feel like I just wanna be left alone. Yet now that I'm alone in my little room in PGP.. I wanna be in the company of others. Tell me that I'm hard to please man. Lol.
Well, this morning I received a terrible news from my sis. Just while Shing Ee and I were taking a bus back to PGP, my sis delivered the news that my second uncle had passed away last night due to an accident. I was thoroughly shocked when I first heard it.. it was like.. I was hoping for someone to yell 'APRIL'S FOOL!!' but apparently no one did cos it was just a stupid wish of mine to reassure muself that it can't be true. Well, I can't say that I've been really close to my 2nd uncle but I felt upset. It just feels weird u know. Like one minute the person is still alive and breathing and the next.. he's dead and will not ever speak or move anymore- just cease to exist. All he ever will be is a memory.. and his loved ones could only just reminisce but will not be able to create new memories and moments together with him anymore. Also, my uncle and his family used to come over during Chinese New Year.. and out famlies even went on holidays together to Cameron HIghlands and Genting Highlands. And now that he's gone.. it just feels really weird. Like something's amiss.
And so, here's a song that I would like to dedicated to my uncle (though I don't think that he has ever heard of this song before) :
Best I Ever Had (Grey Sky Morning)
So you sailed away
Into a grey sky morning
Now I'm here to stay
Love can be so boring
Nothing's quite the same now
I just say your name now
Chorus
But it's not so bad
You're only the best I ever had
You don't want me back
You're just the best I ever had
So you stole my world
Now I'm just a phony
Remembering the girl
Leaves me down and lonely
Send it in a letter
Make yourself feel better
And it may take some time toPatch me up inside
But I can't take it so I
Run away and hide
And I may find in time that
You were always right
You're always right
Remember a few entries back when I touched on where we would all go when we move on.. and I mentioned that the dragon from 'Dragon Heart' the movie said that he'll go to the stars. Well.. uncle.. I hope that u're amongst the stars right now. Rest In Peace ='(

Superheroes Costume Party
It really has been quite some time since I last blogged and much has happened since then. However.. I shall not be such a nag and just give u guys a gist of wad has been going on in my life for the past weeks:
1) I joined SOW camp (which was pretty awesome) which lasted for TWO FREAKING WHOLE WEEKS! And the events included the Rag and Flag day, beach games at Sentosa (I was horrendously sunburnt=( ) and Amazing Race around Singapore. Ok.. more about the camp next time.
2)I moved into Prince George's Park Residence (PGP). The place is not bad can? It looks like a condo from the outside and the room is pretty nice too. I shall upload a pic of my room some other time too.And. The place is vibrant cos most of the residence here are not locals. For instance.. there seriously are many China students.. and ang mohs too (drools. haha. cos many of the ang moh guys are pretty cute. Muahaha).. students from India, Japan and etc.
Ok.. that's about it. I mean the events that are currently taking place in my life. SOW ended just yesterday and shortly after that.. SCHOOL IS OFFICIALLY GONNA START ON MONDAY!! sob. I think uni life is fun but I am so not looking forward to sleeping through lectures.. trying to bully my brain into memorising bio terms.. eck. Shucks. One good thing is that in NUS, we're allowed to plan our own timetable so hopefully I can manage to squeeze my schedule into a 4-days week. *prays fervently*
Oh ya.. I just suddenly remembered that it's National Day today.. so Happy Birthday Singapore!! (although I am a PR but I cannot wish is it? u have a prob with that? lol). And Zheng Yang celebrated his 21st birthday today too - although his b'day is supposed to be on the 13th I think. So anyways.. he threw a Superhero costume party and we were all supposed to go as a superhero character. After much pondering and endless discussions.. Shilly and I decided to dress up as..
ROGUE AND CAT WOMAN. MEOW!! Rogue the sucker has just sucked up all of cat woman's kitty powers.. ARRRGHHHH.. eck. dead.
My og mates from SCAMP!
Cat woman feeling pissed..
The party was pretty interesting cos we got to see how the rest of the people dressed up as. Jessica went as super girl.. and Ivan went as the sissy Captain Jack Sparrow and some of ZY's friend went as the Incredible hulk.. Green Lantern.. Power Puff Girls and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Nice!! However some of them ( like ahem Andy) just went as Passer-by no. 1 ( which means that they did not dress according to the theme at all.. tsk.
All right.. I shall have an abrupt ending to today's entry cos I am truly drained. Cat woman's going to get her beauty sleep now. ~ciao. MEOW.
