♥ how do worms reproduce
in the midst of a very random conversation, it suddenly occurred to me that worms have no sexual organs. so how do they mate? ...i began to google it.
here's a little trivia
"It seems that worms are, in fact, hermaphrodites. They possess both male and female sexual organs. On warm, moist spring and summer nights, you can often seen hundreds of mating worms coming up out of their burrows. Once they have mated, the girdle like ring around the front of an earthworm called the clitellum slides along the worm's body, picking up fertilized eggs. When it finally falls off the worm into the soil, it forms a well protected nest or egg case within which the embryo worms develop."
For a video of a hatching worm embryo, visit the worm world.
and you're so not gonna guess this, but a worm has FIVE hearts! worms are now wayyyyy cooler than i thought.

♥ the sky glows
The sky glows
I see it shining when my eyes close
I hear your warnings but we both know
I'm gonna look at it again
Don't wait,
The road is now a sudden sea
And suddenly, you're deep enough
To lay your armor down
today's weather was rubbish. and so was my mood xxxxxxxxxx

my frequency of blogging generally increases exponentially during exam periods, because mugging is just so plain, boring. structures is the most dry subject everrrr. who really cares if it has sixdegreesoffreedom.
check out the Darwinian award... for people who "do a service to Humanity by removing themselves from the Gene pool". in layman fashion, how some people can die due to the most absurd scenarios. never fails to make me laugh.

I can see you're sad
Even when you smile
Even when you laugh
I can see it in your eyes
Deep inside, you wanna cry
'cause you're scared

♥ its ok
had an extremely skewed and unorthodox materials paper today
funny questions set by shollock this year, questions which have never come out for the past decade?!
of the least expected things, jackson totally saved my ***, my saving grace :)
on retrospect, it was actually not that bad.. but imagine it when you open the paper and your initial reaction was to go what the beep !?!?!
6 muffins to last me through structures tonight
with bostonian bouts of steven tyler
ja ja jaded

♥ another sun soaked season fades away
maybe the reason why i feel disappointed is because i can't seem to lower my expectations
it's hard because i've been living a life full of expectations - not from parents, but from myself
i strive for perfection, and it is the perfectionist streak in me that hates disappointments - big or small.
maybe its time to lower the bar, and make our lives easier.

♥ something buzzing in the head.
There is none like You
No one else can touch my heart like You do
I could search for all eternity long and find
There is none like you
only 2 days left till the start. i can deal with this.
shall whip up laksa fried rice tonight to lift my mood a bit.
i can't wait for exams to start already, but at the same time im feeling the jitters more this year, maybe because i dont feel as prepared as i did last year. relying on God's grace to pass through this time round...
glad my cramps are come and gone. at least till the end of exams :)
mysteriously, my phone went flat overnight when im sure i charged it fully before that. so i happily overslept and missed service completely. did a bit of my own quiet time before tackling the aero paper. dont think i did very well for it, but it was somewhat a confidence booster. just needed a sense of affirmation right before the papers- whatever works now man.
stayed home today cos im getting sick of the library.
xoxo

♥ BAHNESS.
life in the library has been pretty mundane, with the exceptional buzz when a pretty girl or cute guy walks by or chooses to sit directly across you. the air gets more stuffy as the day progresses, and as the clock ticks towards mid-afternoon, kun-ness starts to set in and you get this feeling of immense fatigue which even relentless fails to stir. everything about resin film infusion and pre-preg moulding which you have rote memorised since the wee hours of morning seem to fuse into a whole sheet of gibberish. the perfect weather outside beckons you to the lure of reposing on the hyde park lawn...
it sucks to be in the library. everyday.
on a more comforting note, exams will be over in less than a month! hooray
after eight ice cream has so far been the highlight of my days these days.
oh yes, and the marquee is up on the queen's lawn once again. there goes our lunch spot :(

♥ stifling
weather's too good to be staying indoors. bah.
at least there's touch rugby to look forward to this saturday!
it's baking like a furnace in the library and everyone seems to be wearing lesser :)
lunchtime is always the highlight of the day - armed with food bought from jcr, the usual library gang trooped down to the queens lawn basking in the sun, much to our delight! even though the air is hot, it doesn't stick to you the way it does back in singapore.. so you don't sweat as much either.
a thought: pack my notes and lie down on the hyde park grass. ooohh glorious :) when you're in the uk, do what the brits do
throbbing headache, this ain't good. probably had a lot on my mind today. of cauchyriemann and twinspoolengines. bahhhh.
