Silence as a form of communication

since when did silence become another form of communication?since when did silence become the best way to confront a problem and solve it?since when did ignoring become the most efficient way of conveying a message?is this type of silence good?good that it helps avoid confrontation?no.. neva agreed to that. to me this was all rubbish.totally escapist.

but now?i have succumbed and relented. i have failed my philosophy. realised that tiredness have all sorts of possible influences, be it good or bad.

it is a very thin line between using silence as a form of communication and giving up. its so thin, i cant see it anymore.

suddenly feel so lost, like my world lost its center. intensity of things does make ppl lose themselves. I have lost myself in the process. cant remember what i was like in the past.its a distant memory.

my CNY

Princess Royale and her entire Kingdom wishes all a Happy new year!

Princess just came back from her CNY trip to Genting..though it was a short and nearby one.. but it was one which is SYMBOLIC.. :) it is the first time they ALL went on a trip together..though there are few unhappy moments, but its still fun having u (Prince T) ard..much much better than without u ( Prince T).. *big grinz*

well..wat can i say abt Genting?neva liked it anyway..haha..was dragged there..if not for Prince T, i wun even be going..haha..thanx for all the monopoly sessions with Prince E and Prince T..our cursed game of pool and bowling till our nails start to break off (i mean literally! its painful *sob*) Princess bought quite a number of cosmetic from Kate..(Prince T not Nabe! *grunt*) highlight flash, finish mascara..bought a diva-ish bag too.. neva mind if its the 137th bag that Princess have..there isnt much difference between 137 and 136..really couldnt resist this furry one from Korea..awww...it doubles as the 245th soft toy..haa...

will upload some of the dumb photos we took..its hilarious..*rolling on the floor laffing*

other than that? Princess is back in the lab..working on her Polyvinyl Alcohol electrospin..hope everything works out before tomorrow! got some reporting to do during meeting.. *triple grunt* and where, where, where is my antibiotics!! quick deliver them to the Princess so that she can do up her work on antibiotics!!

the new season of clothes for the Princess?
DIVA is the word! don't understand?look to Jolin Tsai~ Princess have got the same clothes as her! *big grins*

Give me time

how i wish i have the time. all the time in the world..i would take a break, do my long long long overdued experiments, do up my review journal paper, plan for my project directions, have a proper discussion with my students on UROP, FYP and the MLE module..I wouldnt mind a short hols..am so looking forward to the bangkok trip in Jul..so near yet so far..how i wish i can haf a 2 hours super slow lunch..without anything on my mind..wake up without the ringing of alarm clocks that set my head ticking and ringing for the hectic day ahead..

am not simply sitting there to wish..i guess it takes a person of average intelligence to know what he/she wants..but take an exceptionally clever one to make it happen..perseverance is another quality to have for all who are in the same shit as me..plenty of mundane meetings, here, there, everywhere..plenty of nitty-gritty things to handle..and there goes ur day..hectic, tiring..but nothing done. Mayb am just too obsessed with doing everything perfectly..even those small little things..or mayb am just poor in my time planning.am tired..am frustrated.. :(

just added 8 items to my already long To-Do-List..after a 1 hr meeting..*feeling faint*

now i know why superman needs to assume a normal person's identity and not be superman all the time..Nope! not becos of his ugly "uniform"..but simply becos its too tiring~

Valentine's day

v day is just a highly commercial day. A day where couples still quarrel, girls and guys still get heartbroken ( in fact more than normal days i would think)..seriously Princess is beginning to dislike today..firstly it started off in a real bad note & princess's ez link card has got no more money, gotta use coins for bus tmr morning.not looking forward to anything.not even a single one. would rather drown myself in experiments tmr den to think of anything else. expectation kills everything.. not adopting a sore loser-who-cant-get-a-date mood..but rather dun see why things get so hyped up..its pointless.wats the point of spending a bomb on roses or gifts when u cant even understand the person u so called love?get the idea?

As for princess?Her Majesty dun need anything special. just need a man who understands her and knows what she wants and what she needs.seriously, this is even harder to find than a 3 carat pink flawless heart-shaped diamond.

hmm.. Princess sounds pretty mis-understood huh?with so much emphasis on understanding and all..Oh well.........

Princess thinks what those so called "losers" said in the past are beginnning to make sense: 'everyday will be v day if u are happily in love'.. neva gave this much thot and now thinking back, these are just the older ones, not losers. Princess is getting old.

work..funny work..

just received this link from neighbouring lab on their bacteria infection of their cells..cant believe that Sambit actually made a video for the bacterias and posted on youtube! u've gotta see it to believe it..its hilarious..must really comment that the song REALLY suit the topic..haha.. "i know u love me..I know u want me..."

for those who are not familiar with cell culture and stuff..Technically speaking they are culturing specific types of cells and it so happen that bacteria come along and contaminate the culture, thus throwing weeks, months of work down the drain..cos cells are what we want, not bacteria..

talking about work, here's Princesse @ "work"!

can see the difference?can see the smile behind the mask? ;)

anyway, there are other photos which i dun think its appropriate for Princesse to post..so make do..and for those who knows where this is/what this is all about:
i know it feels terrible to not see results after trying for these few times..and yes there is always sacrifices..but i guess this is research and what we have to do is to always muster the courage to continue this road where no one has trod and be a true trail blazer.. *Salute to all researchers in the world*

Ole Ole oLe OLe!

Singapore won!!congratulations to the Lions! We beat Thailand!yeah... Well done Lions! :)

Princesse went to watch the first leg live at the National Stadium!it was such a great experience watching it live with 55000 fellow Singaporeans..after the match Princesse was practically voiceless..Kallang wave neva felt so good..the experience was complete with those super jokers who were suaning and hurling insulting remarks at the thais..not very nice but well, if we take it in a different light, things arent so bad..what can i say, they are just thinking aloud i guess.. *shrug*

Other than the heart throbbing moments whenever the ball went near Lionel Lewis (no, not that kind of heart throbbing..but out of fear i must say..who knows when he will gabra?;P) i've gotten some other insights from this chain of football action..

feel that its indeed hard to be gracious..when the thais were "bycotting" the match, lots of mean words were flying all over the national stadium..even the Thais back in Thailand could not truly accept their boycotting behaviour..GRACIOUSNESS..is it reali so hard? i would think so..recalling the "boo-ing" that were taking place whenever the opponents took control of the ball and the silence at the Thai stadium when Singapore scored..I truly think so..after they've lost the match, not much ppl bothered staying behind to see the Lions basking in their moment of glory.. it was quite a ironic sight when u can see the Lions smilling, celebrating, kissing the cup in the near-empty stadium..even i myself find it hard to be gracious at some point in time during the match..is it human nature?something that cant be changed?who can be so gracious and not be classified as fake?will we ever see real graciousness and not chuck it aside, classifying the person as a fake-o?hmm.. *shrug* but i must say that soccer is a fun game to watch and u MUST watch it with people who are super biased jokers.. it is a game to be enjoyed with a rowdy crowd..maybe best viewed in the ah-beng manner.. :p
