Friends ll

I didnt know Siuling met with an accident. Some friend i am huh?

A couple of days ago this uni friend of mine stopped to ask me if i was ok.
He spent the rest of the day reassuring himself that i was going to be alright.

Guess i was a little guilty cos i was hiding things from him and lying through my teeth.
But he said it was ok. "that's what friends are for", he said.

So i do have friends.
Friends i probably dont deserve anyway.

Maybe i should learn to trust a little more.
Just maybe.

hmm...

One fine day i woke up and to my horror, i realised that i have no friends!

or do i?

there are some people that you dont have to meet up with, but you know they still do care for you and will be there for you when you need them. so i guess i tend to neglect them.

there are some people who only come to you when they need you.

some people i go to only when i need them. i.e. got car to go supper.

so i guess i cant complain much.

but when i mean no friends, i meant those that stab you in the back.
ouch!

shouldnt friends stab you in the front?

Announcement Board

Dearest Tak-lors,

For greater efficiency, we have decided to operate the birthday present selection process like a business entity. Since Lena's birthday is coming up, we have decided to try out this new process and see if it works. =)
For the purpose of this exercise, we will kindly appreciate it if you can tell us which email address to send the relevant emails to (preferably the email account that you'll ALWAYS check ya?). Please make the effort to type out your email address and not just say "msn account", so that it's easier for the person who's consolidating all the data.
An invitation will also be sent to you via this email to add you as a member of http://taklors.blogspot.com/

What does this mean for the birthday girl?
This means you need to come up with a wish list, adhering to the budget that we will send to you after your fellow tak-lors have replied us. A form will be sent to you to tell us what items you want, the price, as well as the place to get it.

What does this mean for you?
For the people contributing to the funds, you will be required to email us at taklors@gmail.com (Yes! we have our own email address!) by a certain date (depending on the recipient's birth date) the amount you would like to contribute to the pool of funds. This amount will be kept confidential and only be revealed to the recipient. You will then have voting rights to the "wish list" by ranking the items in order of preference, hence making the buying decision process easier. You may also opt out of pooling into the funds for a certain recipient by replying to the email address as well.

The process timeline will be as follows:
1. Email sent to birthday girl to draft wishlist
2. Email sent to tak-lors to decide on contribution amount
3. “Wish list” sent to tak-lors and will be posted on http://taklors.blogspot.com/
4. Tak-lors rank and reply to email
5. We buy the present!
6. Excess amount given as “ang baos”

If you have any feedback, do email us at taklors@gmail.com. Thanks.

Boo!

My last semester begins tomorrow.

I hate to admit that the readings are not getting any lesser.

Of cos, the fact is that i've never liked school and studying.

The other problem is that i cant find half of my readings because it needed some kind of membership. although i have faith that the professor is slightly smarter than giving us links to things we cant access, i'm beginning to suspect that maybe it didnt occur to him that we're not willing to pay to get ourselves registered on ICPAS.

So anyway..
Time to go enjoy the last day of my holiday.

PS: can someone please tell me why my blog takes eons to load?
