Thank the Dark Lord, for the blogging box is finally back to its original size. (Yes, I'm currently in a very Harry Potter mood after reading HPwiki)

So I am supposed to go for a camp at last, next week, for the Cultural Activities Club. I am kinda one of those people who love camps for what they're worth, the mindless ra-ra-ing and all, but one thing I cannot understand is this - why the hell do they need to come up with some lame-ass theme like making us pretend we're warlords fighting to protect our country etc etc?!?

I mean look at this (taken from the FOC blog which I very resourcefully found on my own :p)

The dawn of spring marks the arrival of a beginning. Not just the beginning of a new year, a new season, but more importantly, the beginning of a new era. For the kings of Cephoria rule not only with wisdom and justice, the magic of the King-Priest is the only magic capable of protecting the kingdom from the touch of demons. And the magical prowess of the heir is supposedly unmatched as ar back as the founding of the kingdom. Yet that magical protection is not impermeable. Not since that fateful night two decades ago...

(My favourite phrases highlighted for your reading pleasure)
Okay....

So am I supposed to feel excited upon reading this? I mean, if I really do feel hyped up I should consider myself an extreme weirdo.

Seriously, I'm starting to regret going for a camp at all, because I realise for the horrendous Secret Pal thing I am going to have random interactions with this stranger I know nothing about, not even his face! Do you think it'll be extremely anti-social of me to refuse to do that? =/
Ok whatever I'll figure something out. Go me.

Oh god, I'm exceedingly bored this week because so many of my friends are away at camp! :( I'm reduced to pretending that my tutees and driving instructor are my friends. HAHA okay that's a hyperbole.

Anyway, because there's something wrong with the Blogger interface I'm not gonna blog any longer, I'm typing in a textbox the size of a pin and it's annoying!

The Chocolate Research Facility choc the duckpigs got for me are awesome-pawsome! The packaging do use a bit of improvement though; it looks kinda like a pack of condoms. =/

By the way, the longest solar eclipse of the century is coming on the 22nd July! I'm not very sure if we can see it from Singapore, but according to my second best friend (after google), wikipedia, we should be able to see a partial eclipse. Exciting much!

Today, (looks like the start of an FML hahaha) I finally went to find out more about how the academic units thing for university works. It sounds quite scary! Like I'm supposed to complete 34 core units in the first year, not counting the electives! OMG. But anyway I've already decided that my persona for uni will be the "hardworking, intellectual girl" so it's going to be quite a drastic change from my "enthusiastic, fun-loving" persona in JC. Actually I really want to work hard because I want to go for all those drool-worthy studying abroad programmes. Wish me luck!

So my 19th birthday came and went, nothing too interesting there, but just a few days after celebrating I learnt of some superstition that it's bad luck to celebrate all birthdays with a 9 in it. Now I'm jinxed! :/ (To all those who forgot to wish me, shame on you! HAHAHA)

Anyway, birthdays are starting to feel like any other normal day; perhaps that's how they were supposed to feel anyway before commercialism took over and made us believe in indulgence. Okay I'm starting to sound like that "Fornications of a young adult" guy. Thanks rah for that great recommendation. I literally LOL-ed at it.

So nowadays I'm just living each day as it is, hoping time will pass faster because bumming around has never been so boring before. I am really super duper sick of bumming around for so long.

One good thing that came out of it, though, was that I started reading again! I can't believe I only just read the Margaret Atwood novel I bought more than a year back. But anyway it's really, really good so now I am super into Atwood and reading all the novels she's written so far.

But seriously, I'm quite sad that I wasted 8 months doing absolutely nothing worth mentioning and in the end I hardly achieved anything I wanted to. How predictable ):
