bored...

after a long day at school, I thought a nice game of DOTA would perk me up. But the players were so darn arrogant to the point of being blasphemous that the game became annoying.

I desperately need to find another source of entertainment. So it's somewaht ironic that I keep forgetting I CAN watch tv from my laptop. Granted the screen size is puny but it's better than hearing people talk all day long instead of just playing a game.

Hopefully blogging might do the trick too. I am starting to enjoy blogging again. Perhaps this is because I now take a concerted effort to write well so a greater sense of achievement comes along with it. Ultimately, I guess I will always enjoy writing. I just have to realize that sometimes I should just blog for myself and not expect people to reply or respond. also, if there is nothing to blog about I shouldn't force myself to write either.

However, knowing how I just can't spend 1 minute without thinking about something, I find it hard to believe there is nothing for me to write about. Maybe it's just that sometimes I think the issue in my mind is too personal to tell people about it.

I better stop here. I've got a test tomorrow at 10am. And I haven't done my 2nd revision yet!

my cny resolution

It seems like Singaporean Chinese regard Chinese New Year as the official “New Year”. This past week, I have had more wishes from total strangers for a happy new year than I had from friends on January 1st. Maybe it’s just the festive atmosphere this week. After all, with the longest weekend you could hope for, everybody was understandably in a jolly good mood this week.

If Chinese New Year is seen as the official beginning of a year, then perhaps it’s not too late to make a New Year’s Resolution. So here goes nothing.

I, Xu Weixian will try to gain 2 kg of muscle (NOT FAT!) by the next Chinese New Year.

Oh boy… talk about inviting trouble. I’ve been trying in vain to even gain 2 grams of muscles and now I’m talking about 2 kgs? Just who am I kidding? But this time it’s different you see. I have officially made a resolution. That ought to mean I’m more motivated than before to beef up those triceps and work those chest muscle things (ok I don’t know the official name so sue me)

More importantly, making a resolution entitles me to constant encouragement and support from you, the reader. That’s right you’re a part of it too. I need you to constantly push me to train and work out.

Why am I suddenly so eager to beef up? Well, I’m going to be working soon and everybody knows the office is the most conducive environment for your belly to grow. And I don’t mean getting pregnant. So if I don’t start a habit of working out now, I’m going to end up a fat lazy pig by next year.

While it would suit the lunar zodiac if I became a pig this year, I think anyone would agree I am much better off looking human.

So please! I beg you! If you see me lazing around at home or in school, drag me to the nearest gym and whip me with your leather belt till I get my butt on the bench press.

My mum would thank you deeply for that.

what men must always do ( and women need to be aware of )

we don't get rejected by the same girl twice

we don't care if you finally realized we were right back then when we said "we were meant for each other"

when we get over a girl, we never end up liking her again

when girls say "i need more time", we know they really mean "i don't think you're the one"

we know they really mean " i don't think you're the one" but we must always try that last ditch attempt at sweeping her off her feet... because men are suckers for love and are egoistic enough to believe anyone could like us

therefore, if she still rejects us despite everything we've tired (or if she says " more time" again), we know it's time to move on

men lie... we know we'll be softened up all over again if the girls we once liked tells us they're finally ready to accept us... but softening up doesn't equal being able to get over the feeling that they used to play games with us.. and we can't help but feel that we're just being manipulated all over again...

so please make sure you know for sure she's for real this time

but better yet, just make the 1st try count

i'm writing this cos i'm sick and tired of girls who "reject" guys not because they don't like the guy but just because they don't know what they really want

why do girls always depend on guys to make up their minds for them when it comes to accepting someone or deciding whether they really like the guy?

oh and i'm venting on behalf of other people and past experiences... please rest assured that...

i'm happy :)
