While im still here in front of the laptop, happily resting my deformed and injured fingers from the incessant writing during physics and especially econs of which i will tell you why later, i feel very blessed.

The sun is setting soon; six twenty one pm currently. I feel an inexplicable sense of euphoria emerging within me cos' i've completed three papers out of five. Seeping my finely concocted chocolate plus pure milk and being able to play some World Cup Soccer game on miniclip, i pondered. Can life be anymore better than this?

LET ME TELL YOU WHY.

Tomorrow is such an ironic day. In the wee hours of the morning which is the time period where i shall mug like nobody's business, tomorrow appears to me as DOOMSDAY. Why the wee hours, you will ask. Basically, i realised that my studying habits have never ever allowed me a good rest before any exams. I will definitely slack my way through the day and thereafter mug at night. Not healthy? Oh well, i've done this for sixteen years and approximately seven months. Still alive and kicking, there you go.

Well, tomorrow is the final day and the horrendous of them all. With a perfect combination of Geography and Math, i cant ask for more. I mean, imagine having econs and geography, what do you reckon? After geography paper which ends like eleven am in the morning, i bet everyone is gonna scream their heads off. FINALLY. and the initial granite and limestone landforms like dolines and stuff you would hear from the conversations of friends would have transformed to Arithmetic and Geometric progressions formulas.

Quite interesting, i guess? With that, let me officially announce.

I DID STUDY GEOG and EVEN MADE NOTES FOR HUMAN AND A WEE BIT OF PHYSICAL geog. guess what?! i forgot all the minor factors that constitute both areas and so im back to square one.

I shall happily play through the evening and early night and start swearing and cursing throughout the middle of the night when everyone's asleep.

Oh okay. today's paper was a breeze! fortunately, you would say. But i beg to differ. To me, it was a breeze because its either an U or a F, which represents Ungraded and fail respectively, for me. I felt so demoralized after the paper. The consensus reached between me and shu wei was, Why didnt we play more during the holidays?

So, after lunch, i trudged to the concourse to mug econs with the other girls. Apparently, nothing much went in as i tried scribbling different renditions of Marginal Product or Average Fixed Costs graph on my econs notes furiously. To me, those words that began with Marginal, or to put it simply, the whole of the chapter that contained all the different costs, appeared as Greek to me. Didnt really manage to understand it.

There are two worst scenarios during an exam. One, the seconds are clicking by and you are waiting for the chief invigilator to say, You may now start on the paper. Before she actually mentions that, my heart would be throbbing hardly on my chest as my palms break out in cold sweat which will indirectly bring a few cute little butterflies into your stomach and you start fidgeting around in your chair. Two, a very good example would be physics, you realised that you know nuts about the whole question, so apparently u flipped over to the next page, hoping that you would actually identify a word that would bring you some knowledge about the formulas you tried so hard to squeeze in your puny brains the night before. This is it. So i was floating around aimlessly in the world of physics, trying to discover new formulas that are never seen in your mundane thick chunky textbooks, JUST to answer those, as quoted by sarah, Dsquare which means Disgustingly Difficult, questions.

Okay. Thats enough. Shant elaborate more and spend so much time on blogging. oops, i almost typed mugging. haha. and okay, i must allocate my resources effectively, which according to Econs, would be P=MC, but for now, its MINICLIP time.

With that, goodbye people and sorry for reading such a horribly long boring ranty entry.

A-A-A-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H!!!!

My gp compre is so damn fucking screwed. I did the one mark and two mark questions without knowing what the question really wanted cos i was running out of time.

The summary, the component which i think i spent most of the time on, was like KNS also. Cos i was so afraid i wouldnt have sufficient time for the other questions too. MY VOCAB TODAY WAS SO KNS. couldnt think of any words to replace those i see in the passage.

Application Question was SHIT. I DONT EVEN KNOW IF I ANSWERED IN THE CONTEXT.

anyway, Im so FUCKING FRUSTRATED. i remembered seeing the word ARBITRARY when i was revising my GP. then i went to thesauraus.com to check on some meanings and i actually left Arbitrary out! but i consoled myself that that word wouldnt come out. Where got so coincidental. IN THE END, SECOND QUESTION ON THE FIRST PAGE asked me about that stupid freaking ARBITRARY! damnit.

I stack the notes to the original mess it originated from. Shutting my eyelids and muttering a final prayer, i told myself. This is it.

Prelude;
I turned on the laptop and took out the geog midyears which were given out a month ago or so. The paper looked brand new, as if i havent touch it before during the holidays. After taking a peek at the questions, i decided to look at the answer scheme which was forwarded to me in my mailbox.

---------------------------------------

Took a close look at the question, tried to brainstorm and i realised i dont know anything about geography. I felt as if i was in space and i had just hopped off the rocket and wandered into a patch of darkness alone. The floating sensation made me wonder where the hell i was and there was no place to return to. Helpless then became the only word in my dictionary.

---------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------

Because I criticize the practice of female genital mutilation, some people think that I dont appreciate my culture. But they're so wrong. Oh, i think God every day that Im from Africa. Every day. I'm very proud to be Somali, and proud of my country, I guess some other cultures might consider that a very African way of thinking - you know, being proud for nothing. Arrogant, I guess you'd call it.

Other than the circumcision issue, I wouldnt trade with anyone the way I grew up. Living in New York, although everyone talks about family values, I've seen very little of them. I dont see families getting together like we did, singing, clapping, laughing. People here are disconnected from one another; there's no sense of belonging to a community.

Another benefit of growing up in Africa was that we were part of pure nature, pure life. I knew life - I wasnt sheltered from it. And it was real life - not some artificial substitute on television where I'm watching other people live life. From the beginning, I had the instinct for survival; I learned joy and pain at the same time. I learned that happiness is not what you have, because I never had anything, and I was so happy. The most treasured time in my life was back when my family and I were all together. I think of evenings when we'd sit around the fire after we'd eaten, and laugh about every little thing. And when the rains began and life was reborn, we celebrated.

When i was growing up in Somalia, we appreciated the simple things in life. We celebrated the rain because that meant we had water. Who in New York worries about water? Let it run from the tap while you walk away and do something else in the kitchen. It's always there when you need it. BOOM, you turn on the faucet and out it comes. It's when you dont have something that you appreciate, and since we had nothing, we appreciated everything.

My family struggled every day to have enough food. Buying a sack of rice was a big occasion for us. In this country, however, the volume and variety of food is astonishing to anyone who comes here from a Third World nation. Yet, sadly, so many Americans are preoccupied with not eating. On one side of the world we're struggling to feed people. On the other side of the world, people are paying money to lose weight. I watch commercials on TV for weight-loss programs and I scream, "You want to lose weight - go to Africa! How about that? How about if you lose weight while you're helping people? Do you ever think about that? You'll feel good and different, too. You'll accomplish two powerful things at one time. I promise you, when you come back you will have learned so much. Your mind will be much clearer than when you left home."

Today, I cherish the value of simple things. I meet people every day who have beautiful homes, sometimes several homes, cars, boats, jewels, but all they think about is getting more, as if that next thing they buy will finally bring them happiness and peace of mind. However, I dont need a diamond ring to make me happy. People say, oh, thats easy for you to say now that you can afford to buy what you want. But i dont want anything. The most valuable asset in life - other than life itself - is health. But people ruin their precios health worrying about all kinds of pointless little irritations - "Oh, here comes that bill, and another bill, and bills fling in from every direction, and ... oh, how am I going to pay them all?" The United States is the wealthiest country in the world, yet everybody feels poor.

And more than bankrupt of money, everyone is bankrupt of time. Everybody's got no time. No time at all. "Get out of my way, man, I'm in a hurry!" The streets are packed with people rushing here and there and chasing God only knows what.

I am grateful that I've experienced both lives - the simple way and the fast way. But without growing up in Africa, I dont know if I would have learned to enjoy life the simple way. My childhood in Somalia shaped my personality forever, and has kept me from taking seriously trivial issues like success and game that seem to obsess so many people. Frequently Im asked,"How does it feel to be famous?" - and I just laugh. What does that mean, famous? I dont evern know. All I know is that my way of thinking is an African way, and that will never change.

I just pray that one day no woman will have to experience this pain. It wil become a thing of the past. People will say, "Did you hear, female genital mutilation has been outlawed in Somalia?" Then the next country, and the next, and so on, until the world is safe for all women. What a happy day that will be, and that's what I'm working toward.

In'shallah, if God is willing, it will happen.

----------------------------------------------------

I took this excerpt out of a book - DESERT FLOWER by Waris Dirie, who is a famous model now. It's about the extraordinary life of a desert nomad or simply put, about the author herself. She overcame all odds in Africa and finally succeed through her willpower and peserverance. Impressive. Then, after typing this excerpt, i reflected back on life. What has happened to us nowadays? Our time has simply been robbed by studying. We arent living happily, we're living for our studies. Then again, without studying and getting a degree, its the end. No job, no money and no power. This just seems like a vicious cycle where every generation here in Singapore experiences. I feel like reading a book. Devote all my time to it, and allow myself to enjoy the freedom in it. Think of all the possibilites and capture every scene. Okay, i hoped i did motivate myself to think more about my life and i hoped that u had too if u read the above excerpt.

goodbye.

I Just Want You To Know; BackstreetBoys.

Looking at your picture
From when we first met
You gave me a smile
That I could never forget

And nothing I could do
Could protect me from you that night
Wrapped around your finger
Always in my mind

The days we’d plan cause we stayed up all night
Yeah, you and I were everything
were everything
Everything to me

I just want you to know
That I’ve been fighting to let you go
Some days I make it through
And then there’s nights that never end

I wish that I could believe
That there’s a day you’ll come back to me
But still I have to say
I would do it all again
I just want you to know

All the doors are closing
I’m trying to move ahead
And deep inside
I wish it was me instead

My dreams are empty
From the day
The day you slipped away

TRY; Nelly Furtado.

All I know
Is everything is not as it's sold
but the more I grow
the less I know

And I have lived so many lives
Though I'm not old
And the more I see, the less I grow
The fewer the seeds the more I sow

Then I see you standing there
Wanting more from me
And all I can do is try
Then I see you standing there

Wanting more from me
And all I can do is try
I wish I hadn't seen all of the realness
And all the real people are really not real at all

The more I learn the more I cry
As I say goodbye to the way of life
I thought I had designed for me

Then I see you standing there
Wanting more from me
And all I can do is try
Then I see you standing there
I'm all I'll ever be
But all I can do is try
Try

All of the moments that already passed
We'll try to go back and make them last
All of the things we want each other to be
We never will be

And that's wonderful, and that's life
And that's you, baby
This is me, baby
And we are,
we are,
we are,
we are
Free
In our love
We are free in our love

I've been tagged by PIGSY(: micho, er whatever.

----------------------------------------

10 WEIRD & RANDOM facts about ME(:

#1. I love rappers like Missy Elliot or Eminem. And then, i try to rap like them(: only to realise that my voice REALLY isnt suitable to do such a thing.

#2. I try very hard to be an economist whenever i study econs, believing in my ability to analyse those cheem looking graphs and understanding every part of the Sloman Textbook i bought about a month ago. And, fact is i dont really understand. (sorry, this is kind of random cos im mugging econs today.)

#3. I like to buy Uniball Signo 0.38/0.28 Pens. The pretty colours like orange, pink, light blue, purple and many more makes my mugging life more interesting whenever i read those horribly dull and mundane notes.

#4. Whenever i go out, what matters most would be my hair.

#5. I am never a neat person. Everytime i finish tidying and arranging stuff on my table, i can only admire its neatness for a day. 'cos it would be messy again the next day. and, i only tidy it once in a blue moon. lol. gosh, do i sound really untidy? oops.

#6. Handphone and iPod. which is more important? iPod. i cant live without music(;

#7. I love to gaze at clouds. One, the clouds are always changing. They give me a fresh feeling everytime i look at them. Two, I feel very at peace after looking at the big blue sky and everything that lies beyond it. Three, it means that im REALLY free to be able to do such a thing. and i love that sort of freedom, which means that mugging is out of my life for that instant.

#8. Whenever the weather is just a tweeny weeny bit colder than usual, my palms and soles of my feet would become very cold naturally. this kind of link myself to my zodiac - snake.(eeks)

#9. Im a super dreamy person. i dream about practically everything and how nice life would be in those dreams.

#10. I REALLY WANT TO COMPLETE ECONS BY TODAY! which is really impossible.);

Who I Am Hates Who I've Been - Relient K

I watched the proverbial sunrise
Coming up over the Pacific and
You might think I'm losing my mind
But I will shy away from the specifics

Cause I don't want you to know where I am
Cause then you'll see my heart
In the saddest state it's ever been
This is no place to try and live my life

Stop right there
That's exactly where I lost it
See that line
Well I never should've crossed it

Stop right there
Well I never should've said that
It's the very moment that
I wish that I could take back

I'm sorry for the person I became
I'm sorry that it took so long for me to change
I'm ready to make sure
I never become that way again

Cause who I am hates who I've been
Who I am hates who I've been

I talk to absolutely no one
Couldn't keep to myself enough
And the things bottled inside
Have finally begun to create so much pressure
That I'd soon blow up and

I heard the reverberating footsteps
Sinking up to the beating of my heart
And I was positive that unless I got myself together
I would watch me fall apart

And I can't let that happen again
Cause then you'll see my heart
In the saddest state it's ever been
This is no place to try and live my life

Who I am hates who I've been
And who I am will take the second chance you gave me
Who I am hates who I've been
Cause who I've been only ever made me

I'm sorry for the person I became
So sorry that it took so long for me to change
I'm ready to make sure I never become that way again
Cause who I am hates who I've been
Who I am hates who I've been

Birchall: Lennon will do better job than Becks

Trinidad and Tobago midfielder Chris Birchall believes England would be more effective with Aaron Lennon on the right flank rather than David Beckham.

Aaron Lennon: Made big impact.

Beckham, who has set up two of England's three goals at the World Cup, was given a more defensive role when Lennon was brought on against Trinidad on Thursday.

Lennon's arrival as a substitute, along with Wayne Rooney, changed the pace of the game and England ran out 2-0 winners in the Group B clash.

In his column in the Daily Mail, Birchall said: 'David Beckham hasn't got the legs now to go past players on the right and whip in a good ball, so the only pass he seems to play at the moment is the big one to Peter Crouch.'

However, Birchall does not see England boss Sven-Goran Eriksson dropping his captain, and the Port Vale player added: 'He won't leave Beckham out, even though I think Aaron Lennon will do a better job down the right. '

Rooney coming off the bench was more of a lift for them than it was a concern for us because we knew he wasn't fully fit. But it was Lennon who made the difference because he gave them a more attacking threat, doing the job Beckham should have been doing.'

Don't get in to a fight with Oz, coach tells Brazil

MUNICH, June 17 (Reuters) - Champions Brazil are determined not to get dragged into a physical battle with Australia in Sunday's World Cup Group F match.

Brazil coach Carlos Alberto Parreira, while showing respect for his opposite number Guus Hiddink, is wary of what he sees as Australia's bruising style and has told his players not to get into a fight.

The two teams have three points after beating Croatia and Japan respectively in their opening games.

Australia's 3-1 victory over Japan was their first at a World Cup finals.

The Socceroos may rest four players who received yellow cards, Tim Cahill, John Aloisi, Craig Moore and Vince Grella, to make sure they are available for the final group match against Croatia.

Brazil set a record of eight successive wins at the World Cup finals by beating Croatia 1-0 on Tuesday.

'Australia are a very physical team but we are not going to fight with them,' Parreira told reporters. 'Our business is to play football, put the ball on the ground and impose our style and technique.

'It's a decisive match because whoever wins will almost certainly qualify.'

Parreira also knows he is up against one of the world's canniest coaches in Hiddink, who led his native Netherlands to the semi-finals in 1998 and South Korea to the same stage four years later.

'He's a wonderful coach, one of the best in the world, and I have great respect for him,' said Parreira.

The usually self-confident Australians have adopted a more cautious tone as they prepare to take on the world champions.

'There's no pressure on us because everyone expects Brazil to win but there's also the fear that they probably haven't warmed up yet,' said defender Lucas Neill.

'They are a team that can easily start to cook and we just have to make sure we don't let them boil against us.'

Surprisingly, Australia won their last meeting 1-0 in the third-place playoff at the Confederations Cup in Japan in 2001.

Brazil coach Emerson Leao was fired as a result, learning of his fate as he was about to board his flight home.

The match will be a test for Ronaldo, top scorer at the 2002 World Cup with eight goals.

The Brazil striker had a dismal game against Croatia, adding to the speculation over his weight and fitness. On Wednesday, he was taken to a clinic complaining of dizziness but the team management say no abnormality was found.

Parreira has confirmed Ronaldo will start against Australia and says he is prepared to gamble on the Real Madrid striker.

But critics are wondering how long the coach's patience will last.

Brazil: (4-4-2)
1-Dida; 2-Cafu, 3-Lucio, 4-Juan, 6-Roberto Carlos; 5-Emerson, 11-Ze Roberto, 8-Kaka, 10-Ronaldinho; 9-Ronaldo, 7-Adriano

Australia: (4-5-1)
1-Mark Schwarzer; 7-Brett Emerton, 2-Lucas Neill, 6-Tony Popovic, 14-Scott Chipperfield; 8-Josip Skoko, 5-Jason Culina, 20-Luke Wilkshire, 23-Marco Bresciano, 10-Harry Kewell; 9-Mark Viduka

Dutch fans watch match in their underwear

BERLIN, June 17 (Reuters) - Hundreds of Dutch fans had to watch their team's 2-1 win over the Ivory Coast in their underwear in Stuttgart on Friday after stewards at entry points to the stadium rumbled an ambush marketing ploy.

The Netherlands supporters all turned up in garish orange lederhosen displaying the name of Dutch brewery Bavaria and were ordered to remove them by stewards before being allowed to enter the Gottlieb-Daimler-Stadion.

They then went into the match and watched it in their underwear.

Anheuser Busch's Budweiser is the official beer for the tournament and world soccer's governing body fiercely protects its sponsors from brands which are not FIFA partners.

'Of course, FIFA has no right to tell an individual fan what to wear at a match, but if thousands of people all turn up wearing the same thing to market a product and to be seen on TV screens then of course we would stop it.

'I don't know exactly about what happened in Stuttgart, but it seems like an organised attempt to conduct a mass ambush publicity campaign was taking place.'

'I understand that FIFA has sponsors but you cannot tell people to strip off their lederhosen and force them to watch a game in their underpants. That is going too far.'

Most people had hopefully been wearing orange underwear, he added, denying that the trousers were an ambush and describing them instead as a Dutch nod to German culture.

Only men had been forced to strip according to his information, he added.

Owen blames lacklustre England for goal drought

Michael Owen has sent a thinly-veiled message to Sven-Goran Eriksson - play the right way, and I will score goals in this World Cup.

Sven-Goran Eriksson's team have stuttered through the group stages with scrappy wins against Paraguay and Trinidad and Tobago.

They will win Group B if they avoid defeat against Sweden on Tuesday, but Owen admits the Three Lions must raise their game.

Owen said: 'I'm not worried about scoring goals, I've done that since I was born. (so arrogant!)

'I'm not disappointed with the way I played. I could have probably been more in everyone's eye by coming short for the ball all the time but I would be doing a disservice to the team.

'I'm in the team to be in the box and if the ball is in the box and I'm not on the end of it you can blame me.

'That is where I should be, in the box scoring goals for England.'

The Newcastle striker, who has been substituted in both of England's world Cup matches, said: 'We're obviously not firing on all cylinders yet - me or the team.

Owen is looking to become the first England international to score in three World Cup tournaments.

The 26-year-old must now fight for his place now that Wayne Rooney is back from injury and Eriksson must decide which of his three main strikers to leave out.

Peter Crouch has thrived as Owen has struggled. He has scored six goals in his last five England games.

Owen said: 'We've got quite a good record playing alongside each other.

'The first time we played together I scored a hat-trick and the next time I scored two against Argentina. The third time he scored a hat-trick.

'He's a lot different to me and the good thing about the squad is that all the strikers are different.

'Wayne drops in that hole, Peter's a big targetman and I'm a goalscorer. There's quite a lot of difference between us.

'Then there's Theo Walcott who has a lot of pace. We're quite different and that's a good thing.'
