Spent half of yesterday slacking around rewatching hotshot. It feels super nice to be able to slack for a while and not care about my half unpacked luggage.
And i haven't laughed so much in ages. Okay la not ages, i laughed quite a lot during the skit on friday, but that was laughter mixed with worry and anxiety and dreading the 3 hours ceremony after school, so it wasn't really laughter laughter anymore.

It's so strange that one episode of hotshot can make me laugh and cry within one hour. Laughing when xiaozhu walked straight into the glass door, laughing when he was doing pumpings in the middle of the game. I think xiaozhu gives me the most laughter. Feeling gan donged when he appeared with the flowers. Though if i had been the girl i would have been abit disgusted. But oh well. and admiring him when he slamdunks! (is it even spelled like that.... o.o) and when he leapt over the bush! and when he was fighting the bad guys! omg damn cool la.

somehow hotshot makes me want to play basketball, (and embarrass myself). Lol. i sort of wish i could play any ball game nicely. any game at all. Like catch a ball without feeling the instinct to dodge. or throw a ball nicely so it goes into a pretty PARABOLA and doesn't flop sadly down like an overweight airpork.

moo.

I never knew it was so easy to get tired. To feel the weariness seeping into me even when i tried to hard not to be affected. Sometimes, it seems like everyone and everything demands immediate attention. They all shout "NOW NOW NOW! REPLY MY SMS! REPLY MY EMAIL! SEND ME THIS! TELL ME THAT" How could anyone ever have so much energy ?!

oh well.

Maybe i should invest in good quality coffee.


there you go
You're always so right
It's all a big show
It's all about you

You think you know
What everyone needs

You always take time
to criticize me

It seems like everyday
I make mistakes
I just can't get it right
It's like I'm the one
you love to hate

But not today.

So shut up Shut up Shut up
Don't wanna hear it
Get out Get out Get out
Get out of my way
Step up Step up Step up
You'll never stop me
Nothing you say today
Is gonna bring me down


There you go
You never ask why
It's all a big lie
Whatever you do

You think you're special
But I know and I know and I know
And we know
that you're not

You're always there to point
Out my mistakes
And shove them in my face
It's like I'm the one you love to hate
But not today.

So shut up Shut up Shut up
Don't wanna hear it
Get out Get out Get out
Get out of my way
Step up Step up Step up
You'll never stop me
Nothing you say today
Is gonna bring me down


Is gonna bring me down.
Will never bring me down.

Don't tell me who I should be
and don't try to tell me what's right for me
Don't tell me what I should do
I don't wanna waste my time
I'll watch you fade away

So shut up Shut up Shut up
Don't wanna hear it
Get out Get out Get out
Get out of my way
Step up Step up Step up
You'll never stop me
Nothing you say today
Is gonna bring me down

So shut up Shut up Shut up
Don't wanna hear it
Get out Get out Get out
Get out of my way
Step up Step up Step up
You'll never stop me
Nothing you say Is gonna bring me down

Bring me down
Won't bring me down
Won't bring me down

Bring me down
Won't bring me down

Shut up Shut up Shut up


simple plan rocks.

This is freaking annoying. Surely they do not mean to overwork us? What is the point of this whole endless cycle if all that comes out of it is just a bunch of tired, weary souls who don't have the energy to showcase whatever potential they see in them. It's making a mountain out of a molehill. Potential or no potential, smart or stupid, we are still humans. We need food, we need sleep and we need play. No one cares about striving to be a better person when he is dying of sleep and fun deprivation.
You still won't get anything in the end, won't you?

But how much love does it take to get rid of the fear.

Or maybe it isn't fear at all. It's that same kind of suffocating feeling that envelopes me in a cloud of uncertainty and helplessness. Like I know it's going to screw, but i can't do anything about it kind of feeling. Yet, the strange thing is, I did try to do something about it. I tried, hard. I made efforts, but none of my efforts ever seem to work. Afraid to lose that mental struggle, and afraid that i'll give up halfway like i stupidly do everytime. And at the same time, afraid that if i keep going on, I'll fall to my death or faint or die or something, because I'm not up to it.

Gosh.

Don't die okay YanNi. When you come back alive I allow you to play audi for as long as you want.
THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR THE HAPPY BIRTHDAYS!

you all make me feel loved. =D i love yall back okay!
