Hmm it was Noelle's birthday on Wed! I got a box of chocolates and wrote a note for her. Hmm may not be the most difficult choices of all as a present but I believe that presents should be (1) useful or (2) edible! Haha those kinds of presents are simply the best cos they deliver the most utility, ornaments are nice to look at but ultimately serve no purpose (haha ... can tell I've been doing too much econs!).
Oh yah ran a race on wednesday. It was at Hackney Marshes in Zone 3. I did a pretty good personal best time of 30-31 i think for a sllightly over 5 mile race. Pretty satisfied. But during the race it was agony. Real bad this time cos the ground was really slippery in some areas worsening my flat foot problem. Hmm sometimes I wonder if I'll be able to continue running anymore after a few years. After every race my knees and ankles seem to be detiorating ... haiz!
Went over to holborn to study later and guess wad since it was election day they were serving free pizzas! Just perfect for my exhausted and malnutritioned self!
Hmm this evening I went to the CU Carol Service. Not fantastically wonderful or inspiring but I enjoyed singing the carols again. They seem to lift u up and make u happier everytime! The meaning of Christmas was the theme. And it did make me ponder a little more about the meaning of xmas more than usual - christ's birth - since in Singapore it is a relatively commercialistic and uneventful (or rather not so celebrated) holiday as compared to London.
Got back to Passfield Hall pretty late and I was just cooking my dinner when the FIRE ALARM went off! Cracks! I was so miffed that as the entire hall filtered out into the streets I continued cooking my supper and later eating it. And as my suspicions proved right ... it was a FALSE ALARM! Mwahaha!
Anyway have been studying till pretty late the last few days so ... been wanting to get more sleep but apparently its still not possible today ... sighz! Gonna catch what measly sleep I still can get so good nite!
P.S. Have been listening to this song non-stop! You noe I have this theory about how one will choose and listen to songs based on one's mood but the more one listens to the song, the more it dominates your mood and a feedback effect occurs. So if u are melancholy and listen to a melancholy song you'll just get more and more melancholy ... drats! (did any of u get that?)

Don't stray
Don't ever go away
I should be much to smart for this
You know it gets the better
Of me sometimes
When you and I collide
I fall into an ocean of you
Pull me out in time
Don't let me drown
Let me down I say its all because of you and here I go
Losing my control
I'm practising your name
So I can say it to your face it doesn't seem right
To look you in the eye
And let all the things you mean to me
Come tumbling out my mouth indeed its time
Tell you why I say its infinately true
Say you'll stay
Don't come and go
Like you do
Sway my way
Yeah I need to know
All about you
And there's no cure
And no way to be sure
Why everythings turned inside out
Instilling so much doubt
It makes me so tired
I feel so uninspired
My head is battling with my heart
My logic has been torn apart
And now
It all turns sour
Come sweeten
Every afternoon
Say you'll stay
Don't come and go
Like you do
Sway my way
Yeah I need to know
All about you
Say you'll stay
Don't come and go
Like you do
Sway my way
Yeah I need to know
All about you
Its all because of you
Its all because of you
