a long one from the long person



hello 36-ers,

i guess now's the time when all your noses are buried deep in your books/notes so this blog will probably go dead for a while! now that's a good thing so let's keep it that way :) in the meantime, i will try to keep it alive with your generation type of jokes- as you can see with the above attempt (which made it smile too so guess i'm not that old).

just want to say thank you for attending the 2h tutorial on friday. i hadn't realised i'd cannibalised your lunch break - now why didn't you tell me, we could have started later! i won't mind a break myself from my 5h marathon. BUT (so as not to disappoint those amongst you who roll your eyes at my negativity :p), the cynical ms h in me wants to say hunger's a good thing because it keeps you awake.

in other news, here's an example of murphy's law: i've been waiting whole morning for it to rain so i can hang my laundry out after the sky's done with all those rain clouds. by 130pm, the clouds were still gathering but there was just NO rain. so i decided alright, if the weather is so bent on playing a joke on me - i hung out my clothes and ta-dah, it's now raining. the other incarnation of this weather prank is when i fervently apply sunblock to go outdoors and then it'll definitely rain when i'm out, happened 8 out of 10 times (didn't happen for the national day connecting hearts event).

now that it's raining, i can't quite go out for my dose of endorphins either. haven't exercised in a week and it's really affecting my mood. so the next time you feel absolutely grumpy (like me now), make sure you go out there and have a good workout - dancing around madly to your favourite music counts too, as long as you work up a sweat. or perhaps you can offer to vacuum the entire house, which will also earn you some points with your parents.

i'm just done setting the questions for the-thing-that-shall-not-be-named too. are they difficult? well, here's my PC answer: it's only difficult if you don't study :p

and the one thing that i want to say (which i have saved to the last): with us 2 months and 6 days away from the-thing-that-shall-not-be-named, i'm very sure now that i will definitely miss you guys when it's time to say goodbye.

*cue soppy sentimental music....until zowie decides this is not 36's style and cuts in with her funky music*

ok. study hard. i won't get to say this in 3 months' time so let me get my money's worth now. study hard study hard study smart.

love,
ms h

health advisory - epidemic alert!

hi everyone

please drink more water, include fruits and veggies in your diet and maybe it's time to start popping those vitamic C pills! take your fruits half an hour before food or an hour after food for maximum absorption (no kidding). adequate rest (at least 6-7hours) is recommended. burning the midnight oil now only to fall ill later is unwise.

the zowie virus is on the loose so do take the necessary precautions against this powerful bug.

number of casualties so far: 4 absentees today [while yesterday's absentee waved goodbye to his perfect attendance record :)]

love,
ms h
