Some of my favourite quotes:

"It’s difficult in times like these: ideals, dreams and cherished hopes rise within us, only to be crushed by grim reality. It’s a wonder I haven’t abandoned all my ideals, they seem so absurd and impractical. Yet I cling to them because I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.
Anne Frank (Diary of a Young Girl)

All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost . . ."
J.R.R Tokkein (Fellowship of the Ring)

"Ordinary, said Aunt Lydia, is what you are used to. This may not seem ordinary to you now, but after a time it will. It will become ordinary."
Margaret Atwood (The Handmaid's Tale)

"What is dangerous in the hands of the multitude, with what may or may not be irony, is safe enough for those whose actions are beyong reproach"
Margaret Atwood (The Handmaid's Tale)

"We are not defined by our gifts or abilities, but instead by the choices that we make"
J.K. Rowling (Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone)

haven't been posting to this blog in quite a while, i wonder why...i've been getting quite complacent recently, how sad =( dunnoe lah, its lyke i need someone to slap me really hard...hahaa..=grin= i wonder but somehow it seems to affect males more than females...maybe its something to do with the way our brains are wired perhaps?

hols has been rather busy, -understatement-, largely cos of econs quiz preparations, and this really clammy feeling abt this thursday...sometimes i guess its good to go in as the underdogs, no stress, no pressure, and you enjoy things for the way they are...
block tests are coming soon, rev not exactly going "well", but i guess everyone's probably somewhere there, but still i'm just a little worried that i might not finish in time...esp given that there are practicals..though studying for that is probably secondary to studying for the main paper, since pracs can be studied over the weekend, esp for bio..
