It is not owned by any of us lesser mortals.
Sprints off at an infinite speed that no one ever notices how valuable each passing second to the passing year.
Seems insignificant by itself, when one looks at the face of the clock.
But we all know everyone is after it, subconsciously.
Until then, we only hope to say,
“No, time is waiting for me.”
As much as people would say age gracefully and elegantly, i guess i cannot accept the fact that i wake up every morning to realize that i have gone old… by a day. Gah! That feeling sapping through the skin, not sure is it from inside out or outside in… is harsh. Like a fire alarm going off in the middle of the night when you finally are able to sleep soundly after a whole exhausting week. Like having lil’ Chucky as your only birthday gift. Like being robbed in the day and realizing your dinner being eaten by your pet-cat when you got home. All of that happening and you still can’t avoid being old. So inevitable.
I hate getting old.
Quote of the post: “Let there be eagles in the sky, with pigs that fly.” - eagles flying sky high symbolize strength, positivity and the desire to reach high. We all know pigs can’t fly, BUT it is never wrong to imagine that. So, it’s never wrong to have a dream. Da vinci once said one day humans will be able to fly, and he’d ridiculed the people of his time, no? Look what are pilots for today?
To even feel unearthed over cases of sodomy, rape, burglary, snatchtheft and killings… now this? There’s even this:
Only recently??? And we’re reading firearms and arsons! What has the world becoming to?
Vanity is a sign of attention-poverty.
Negligence leads to odious concequence.
For who are we to ask for more?
And why belittle oneself and demand others to be as humble?
For if it is the virtue, whoever said which was right, the opposite wrong?

The daily journeys of the every living being consist of forks and turns.
“Follow your heart and you’ll come by what you are searching for.”
So they say. On the contrary, don’t we always hear,
“Follow the right path and you’ll find goodness in the end”?
It is a wonder how mere statements can turn to strong paradigms.
Therefore, it is no wonder anymore should evil-doers have their own sayings.
Hmm… probably that’s why lawyers can turn an innocent to guilty and vice-versa.
They are doing the talking, aren’t they?

Pei Kheng ponders on…
Not that i am in the exam season right now, but most of my friends are having their finals and class tests, and a few are having presentations anyway.
So i wanna wish everyone i know who’s having their exams and what-not to study well. Or… study hard. There’s only one time to use the word “hard” in the process of working for the exams. It’s either before or after the exam. Study “hard” and you’ll find the paper easy as buttercake, otherwise, not studying will turn you to say “oh man.. that paper was hard!”
BUT… but… if you’d to use “well”, you can use twice. “I studied well, thus my results will turn out finely well.” How’s that?
So… don’t screw up anytime.
A tout รก l’heure!
*giggles while typing out*
It is not usually i would put this up but since it was rather interesting i just thought this might be as well as a good filler. And of course, for anyone who’s checking me out but too shy to come forward to know me in person, I am already dropping you boys (or gals) a hint of my personality. *lol*

Gosh! It’s back to school after a tremendous 2 weeks vacation. It may seemed undeniably short, nevertheless the whole two weeks were very much filled with eventful happenings and sightings.
The next few weeks are filled with labarotary sessions and write-up. Honestly, I loooove lab sessions very much. Really. It’s practical and most of the times i’ve had very good times doing my stuff, not to mention… very well results too.
So, this time, I had to work with a post-graduate who’s working and had worked out other thesis. It’s that tad exciting! Yeaaa… i really thought so! pfffth!
On the first day itself, because even my own supervisor is not around i had to explain to him what the objective and my aim of the whole experiments of the upcoming sessions. So there i was, explaining what i was to come out with at the end of the sessions. Because i’ve never really worked out a methodology of my own (usually we just follow standard protocols that were derived by great scientists who most unfortunately i was never been acquainted with, geee!), I just wrote very briefly steps i would use that i’ve taken from literatures of similar design. So… yea, i thought that was smart. Then, there i was, baffled by the questions he’d flooded upon me. Traumatized by equations that he’d wanted me to solve within flicks. Not that i did not know how, but because of the much relaxed holiday i had till the previous day, my mind would not budge to be critically thinking bout stuffs. What more, physical and mathematical chemistry equations?! So retarded! And i meant myself! Never felt so bleak the whole day before. It was as if he put the question of what’s 1+1 and expected me to come out with an apple pie. WTH! I didn’t even manage to go through with 2 apples! bugger…
Right… after much time spent on devising my methods while printing “i m stupid, so please stop asking me questions or i’ll evaporate” on my face and left the dude happily satisfied with however he’d tormented me about, i left for home.
The next day, when i FINALLY put my hands on the real stuffs, he watched me working from time to time. I learned very instantly that he was a very meticulous guy. So tuned to perfectness that he actually winced with agony when i accidentally spilled a drop of oil on the table!
*o shit! so dead, ain’t i?*
Oh well… of course, as Miss Teoh Pei Kheng as i am, i used my usual sarcasm and (THEN) charms to deal with Mr Meticulous Perfectionist and by the end of the whole whicked day, he offered me chocolates.
I guess overly analytical people like him can’t help being precise, accurate and at-least-close-to-perfect for they are usually mentally stimulated to search for “the answer” to the questions and equations they confer upon themselves. So driven by that motivation that i guess they will never see what beauty the sunset could simply hold and sit back and say “wow! i feel like on the top of the world today although i did not have my calculator with me right now!!!” Whicked…
I, on the other hand (and i guess this fact is not quite understood by Mr Meticulous), am really just working hard to get a decent honors when i graduate this June. Forget bout the 1+1 apples with pastry pie and look how breathtaking is this sunset pic i’ve taken! walaaau!
