ramblings

It's late but so much has happened that i ought to type sth. First things first, i like this photo. The boy's mom must be real proud of him and vice versa too:)
Gek and i were just talking abt this:The more you want something, the more you want to prepare for it, but in reality, preparation doesnt necessarily make things better. Take interviews for example. So many people felt obliged to prepare for the medicine interview cos it just means too much to not do anything about it. But i realise, reading or asking for a lot of opinions might not actually help 'cos the reply to a question usually turns out quite bad when our minds (opps.. i can prob only say for myself) scramble desprately for that perfect ans we have read/heard somewhere. To me, it would have been better if it was all spontaneous, after all, an interview is about how much u really know and who you really are and not what you think you should be. It really ocurred to me when i made comparison btwn my 2 interviews. The teaching interview was a 100 times better when i did zero preparation. Well, even if i dont get the scholarship, cos i told them honestly that medicine was my first choice, at least i have gained sth from this experience :D
友情并非茶水,愈冲愈淡;而是好酒,愈久愈香This saying goes out to a lot of my friends, though most of them dont know of the existence of this page. I got reminded of this line while talking to one of them and i was so moved by how much abt me was remembered. A BIG Thank You to these people :) Each one of you are AMAZING.
Some things are better slow Hope i get to run soon. I miss doing long dist, i miss the thrill of being able to sustain my run, i miss taking time off to just enjoy running and running only. Most people dont understand why i like running on the track so much, but i think it takes u on another level of understanding of the activity. Well, there are times for nice slow runs with nice scenery to watch (and i like them), but there are times for more to be felt from something simple too.
-sigh-If you are reading this, you must be really bored. The above were just random ramblings. I have more to say, but i'm tired. so, good night.
