exams are finally finally over, this term has been pretty tough but I'm so glad the holidays are here! haha, the last exam was contract law and like at 1130, I could feel everybody wanting to abandon their paper and just leave the exam hall or okay, at least I felt that way haha. I really detest all the SOGA questions where you have to apply the Act in order to calculate damages, I mean let's just use common sense! anyway, I didn't study SOGA properly so I just took the market price of whatever goods and multiply by the amount bought haha, okay I knew something was abit off but I was like oh heck it, I just hope the prof doesn't feel like burning my paper when she sees it!
went for lunch with liru, clarissa and chee cheong at thai express and it was pretty funny cos we all became so indecisive after the exams la. haha, we changed our orders like 4 or 5 times and the waitress kept giggling at us. after that, went to chill at starbucks with liru and clarissa where we really had an opportunity to share stuff and catch up. and I learnt that I'm really blessed to have family who are around, who love me and a guy that always puts me first. having such blessings around makes you think the world works like that when it doesn't, so not taking anything for granted!
went out for lunch with huixiang, jojo and emmanuel at manhattan's fish market on tuesday haha (by special request okay, not that I was trying to be a lightbulb). then we went to the library to help out with some research that hx and jojo were doing for their pro bono work. I realise it's really hard to think of someone who has been accused of a crime as 'innocent until proven guilty' because the law system in Spore is pretty pro-plaintiff IMO. and it's also hard to draw the line between yourself and your clients. how much do you sympathesise? too much and you're too emotionally involved. too little and you risk reducing real life people and events to words on a page, a problem that needs to be solved. yes, there's much more to being a lawyer than I thought.
anyway, went to art friend to look for materials and scrap cloth. since I'm going to be bumming at home most of the time, I was thinking I should start on some craft tutorials hahaha since the end-products I saw were so amazing. haha, on the way there, chris was telling me that he's on his way back to the office already. okay, so i was browsing paper in art friend and suddenly someone asks, "can I help you with anything?" and the next thing i knew, chris was there la! haha he's so sweet sometimes but i was super surprised can! I even like blinked twice before I realised it was him haha. and then we had macs at the outlet in bras basah.
the last time I was there was with my LTB group-mates and now they've renovated it COMPLETELY. it's one of the best macs I've ever been to la. they have lots of sofa seats and sitting areas for two people. so there were tons of people studying there. haha, long time since I've been to mac without books for mugging. but we had a good time just chatting and having fries haha.
you know how people are supposed to be 3-D? as in, when you get to know them, they are not flat but they are vibrant and alive. for some people, you can only get to know their 1-D or 2-D selves because you can't handle who they actually are. and that's okay, that's why some people can only be mere acquaintances. but as I come to know you more, I love who you are and I love all the layers that you have and don't show.
haha I love doing all these analogies, reminds of me of ashin's onion song.
and yes, I absolutely love the holidays! can't wait to go baking, kboxing and shopping :)
