DISCLAIMER: if the above entry has caused some discomfort howsoever, whatsoever, directly or indirectly. it is wholly due to coincidence and random factors (NOT ME!!)

finally, today marks the end of the fourth semester. the third semester ended with a BANG (well, computational methods was tough. it was a bang for me! ouch!! my head!!!)

this semester, similarly, it ended with a bang. i was banged by unit ops! ouch! my candy ass!!!

Semester four at a glance

this semester, it was crazily busy. first, it was chingay. i was heavily involved in chingay. training was twice a week and it was really a challenge for me. i didnt do my tutorials with the exception of heat transfer tutorials 1–>3 the rest were copied without understanding. chingay clashed with tech comm and i (tog with my group) handed in an incoherent proposal which scored us a fantastic big B. it was really crazy. of cos, thr was girls home sessions and tuitions.hengs thing was, my student yangyang went for his chinese high version of "GIP", so i was left with 1 student. and, also, i took up driving. gbb is waiting for me! busy semester.

as usual, this sem i didnt do homework which were non-gradeable. go to tutorials with a blank mind. well, this requires courage. to be scorned at for being the lousiest scholar on planet earth. this sem, tech comm was a big challenge. we had to submit a proposal which had a pseudo word limit (the word limit was imposed, but it was conveniently breached by all of us in the class. we didnt want to compromise quality with word limit. that was our error for the fucked up proposal so we just heck and went ahead with producing a good quality report) it fetched us an A. hell yea =D but, presentation was bad. being convinced that i was a good presentor cos efective comm my presentation saved my ass by giving me an A+, getting a B for presentation was a big setback. but i realise something out of that setback. we must really look at who’s doing the evaluation for presentation. try to speak like the person. thr was once i read from a book that people usually think that other ppl who are like them are competent. so, copy their styles (esp if they are very inflexible.) not every ‘TEACHERS’ (i wont call them professors) can tolerate different styles of presentation. just, copy their styles. that is safe. similarly if u come out to work, and have to make a presentation, copy your manager’s style of presentation. u wont go wrong with that. of cos, the content u can ownself modify lar, but the speed, the style, just copy. learn to be a zerox.

this semester,was also exceptionally challenging because of jdc. i believe for my pres, whos also my good fren. its even worse. cos she is ‘The Pres’. so naturally, more responsibilities, more shit work, more endurance of red-tape of a bureacratic organisation like CAC. u shld try being part of a red tape organisation. its one of the shiokest feeling. for 2wks plus, i had to meet diff ppl at different hours to sell tickets, had to account for the money, had to contact the dance pres, had to do hall to hall sales which i only sold 2–3 tickets (combined sales of me, mindy, and yihui) after chu1 mai4ing my se4 xiang4!!!!  hahahha no lar, just kidding. i m holy innocent (i think i jus insulted a sch! oops!). f–k those ppl who rejected us!!! hahahha oops. and, i must really bitch abt this khanzakstan student. he took my number, and said he was interested to go, but in the end, he dint turn up at my ticketing booth and still had the cheek to ask me to go out with him. hell NO. unless he buys 10 tickets from me. another mai pi gu incident. well, hard life man.

ok the above is really all thrash lar. let me talk abt something with depth.

u know, everytime my frens do badly for a paper, they sms me i’ll say ‘hey dun be sad..its just a paper, u can always do well for the next one!its over already so dun think abt it’.. well, that comes out of me, but somehow, its always easier said than done.

when i screw papers up, i will still feel very sians. i’ll doubt myself as an individual, i will feel dumb. i will feel that everyone else must be doing better. do you? however, after thinking abt it, my preivous tots seem very ‘no point’

firstly, what is the whole point of telling urself that i m dumb and then expecting urself to do better in future? i realise human beings dont work this way. the moer u tell urself u are lousy, the worst u become. i realise this recently. i haf been telling myself that qianru isnt good. but who am i to tell myself that i m no good? why do i haf to be the harshest person to myself? i need to find back the old me. in the past, i alw tell myself, ok go to the exam hall, i must really enjoy the paper to make my money worth. and surprisingly i did enjoy most of the papers. the paper i enjoyed the most was my S papers. it was like playing puzzles and seriously, i didnt felt that thr was any stake put in tt. i mean, i dint expect myself to do well or to get a D. the purpose was clear-Dont waste dad’s money. he paid for my papers so i muz go and take them. liews, it cost 100 dollars okay!!!! gst inclusive. the 4 hours for my s papers were truly enjoyable. cos i go inside and just wack. it was stressfree. for the 2 papers, i got Merit. i realise that i enjoyed the paper cos i felt it involved no stakes at all. however in university, the stakes are high. if u screw up one semester, ur cgpa would drop, and it may affect ur class of honours. thats y ppl are so panicky over exams. how i wish i can treat every paper in uni like the 2 s papers i took when i was 18. the more u tell urself, tt u are dumb, the worst u will become. and one day, u will be like the typical adult on the street, stressed, shag, unhappy. the whole purpose of education is not to tell u that u suck. not to tell u that if u cant do triple integration, u are gone. not to tell u that if u cant use kremser equation, u are an ass.

the whole purpose is to let u sharpen ur mind. of cos, the end product of education is just to produce fine individuals. full stop.

the education system can be screwed up but we cant let ourselves be as screwed up as tt. dun let yr grades convince u that they chart your path. dont give in to that shit. dont buy that. if ur boss is going to be so particular about grades, thr is no point working for them also.

of cos, dont get bad grades for nothing. we gotta know what are our weakest links.its always important to know what we die for man! dun get shoot and then just ‘die like that’.

this semester, i didnt do a good job for time management. also, i haf been very harsh on myself, psychoing myself that i suck. that sucked! i wasted so much time psychoing myself that i m lousy that i dint haf enuff time to study and make up for what i haf lost. next semester, no such shit again. i gotta be more driven, and believe in qianru more. my mom gave birth to me not for me to scorn at myself. she’ld be so disappointed if she knows that her daughter looks down on herself. well, if i haf to be laughed at, it mustnt be myself. i gotta start believing already. if not, this is gg to get nowhere. absolutely.

today has been such a fun day. i am happy i lived today, to experience such a fun fun fun day. luckily i dint manage to do silly things then. phews!! lucky me ! *thumbs up*

so, wad special day isit today?

it was singapore girls’ home’s family day!! annual event! i saw so many volunteers today after such a long break due to chingay. i haf nt gone to the girls home for 3 wks. 3 mighty long weeks! and it was like meeting up very close frens after a long time. the feeling of stepping into the girls home was such a familiar feeling. it’s beyond words. i guess i’ll really miss it when i leave girls home (okay, not as an ‘inhabitant’ of tt place of cos!) i am glad i joined this cca cos people thr are really so nice. ppl like xin xin, wendy, nadiah (*fellow chem eng fren!), judith (*chem eng senior!). very nice ppl whom you can talk to, non stop!

it was a day i felt a small sense of pride. out of the 6 games stall, 4 of the games were by me! hahahha. so wanna know wad were the games i tot of? (and i gave them funny names too)

i was helping my frens tend the booth ‘catch me if u can’!

this game is actually pretty cool. okay i must say, this is not an original idea. vjc had this carnival when i was a yr 1. thr was this booth whr ppl used paper nets to catch fishes! pretty pretty guppies.  i rember i was so drawn towards tt stall tt i invest TWO of my coupons! my paper nets kept breaking. *(uh, damn!) my class’ booth was this sliding mugs thing. i was like practically standing thr the whole day cos i was in charge of the shifts then. nt bad, class bonding!!

ok lets talk abt today’s experience at the games booth. thr was dis girl her name is xiu tong. she is those kinda quite tough kinda girl. the way she speaks, the way she carry herself, yea man, one tough girl. a typical ‘jiang3 yi4 qi4′ girl. she was so enthusiastic in helping us,she helped us fetch like 4 pails of water! and mind u! the toilet is dam far away. and she’s nt as chao geng as me. she dint use trolley. haha, i did. ops! then when i was tending the booth, she came over to find me a few times, and even used her coupon to get me an ice cream!! so touched. i can still select flavour sumore lo.i was v happy and touched because it was the first time we met and talked! and it seems like she can open up herself to every1, anyone.

she told me tt she wants to go VICTORIA JC! and i was like ‘hey man!i was from thr!!’

she asked me how much i got for l1r5 and i told her my score. then she said she got 9. i was so happy for her! despite being locked up, despite such adverse conditions, she stood up and managed to produce good results. and she was actively involved in cca too. i told her ‘yes u can do it!’ and she said very positively that she’s gg to work hard.

so happy for her. what i feel is that when ur determination is thr, u can definitely achieve many things in life. of cos, not everything! for instance, matters of the heart. those issues cannot be solved by banging ur head against the wall for n—> infinity. i guess u’ll prob concuss before n—-> infinity. haahhaha

n noe wad?? alot of the girls haf children! lau lei. hao ming!!

all v kawaii!!!!!!!

fat chubs.

i like to tok calk w kids.for my booth right, the time limit is 2 mins, but of cos wad limits their time limit is not the time limit (sounds confusing, huh!), but rather, the no. of fishes that they catch!! haha we only haf 600!! if they catch 10 each! we hafta close shop alr lo. so when i see that they are super aggressive and catch alot of fishes alr, i say ‘ok!!! 30s left!!’

bt u noe lar, those kinda high cannot be estoppled by simply saying ’stop!’ they keep playing and playing and out of desparation they will use their hands to cup the fishes. they are so adorable. got 1 his name is ryan. he simply loves this stall so much!! if i m not wrong, he used up like 3–4 coupons to play. i wonder whr he got the coupons from. haha. i like to make the kids kanchiong. i say ‘ok! 2 mins. catch ANY amount u want! all yours!! jiayou and faster catch!’ then they wil scramble away to the pools to ‘kick some f-ass’ (f-ass=fish ass) and they will say to each other ‘kuai dian! liang fen zhong!’

dam funny!!! u’ll laugh until peng if u were there. if i were to put a value to how much this day was worth to me, i’ld say, 10,000USD!

hey everybody! we hav completed ~50% of a semester! arent you proud of yourself?? gif urself a pat on the shoulder and shout ‘GOOD job’! even though you might not feel that u are doing a good job! please! do this before 12am! if nt u kena captured by police dun say is qianru song2 yong3 u to shout one hor

blehh! totally dun haf the blogging ’sensation’. just write some crap alrite!

hmm, a few days ago i was ’stoning’ in sch’s lib and i realised something. i realised that every lady in the library was pretty! *pretty women, walking down the street, pretty women….*

WHISTLES.!

when we were younger, we’ld classify girls has ‘pretty’ or ‘not-pretty’. budden as we grow older, it seems that everyone is becoming pretty.its either that there are more pretty girls, or that i’ve grown to appreciate beauty in a different sense. in the past, it was so straight forward, if you have a combination of big eyes, nice hair, tanned skin, yea, more or less, u will be considered pretty by me. i will adore you and hope to be like you, someday, somehow, althou i know genetically, we are quite different.

note, the word is ‘combination’. which means u gotta ‘have them all’. but now, the emphasis is more on uniqueness. u do not need to be following the season’s latest trend to be pretty. u do not need big eyes. in fact, i feel that girls with slit-ty (when i see the word slit, it reminds me of X ray diffraction. YIKES!PHYSICS!) eyes are dam pretty in a sense. they emit glamour and are usualy viewed as demure and mysterious to me.

you do not need to haf bony body frame to be pretty cos i think rounded bodies are pretty hot too. they look well-nourished, and healthy.

you do not need perfect skin to shine. bt of cos, girls, pls dun expose urself to those harmful UV rays. LOOKING TANNED IS OUT! never go tanning again! oh promise me! we are no longer young. so, yea, take care to protect urself from the sun. of cos, not to make urself too ‘niang’ at the same time haha later guys bi3 shi4 u!

in the past, i alw felt a need to be pretty, in order to be accepted. bt thats really not the case now. i feel that being pretty, by itself, is not a means to solving things. how shallow was i. eh but dun laff ok! i believe u mus haf tot of such things before lar. heee. just say yes!!!

the old-school ’sexy’ is dead. it used to be dam ’sexy’ to be the bad girl. to do things to the extreme. u noe lar, those sec2-sec3 kinda mentallity. to show ‘attitude’. but, what is ‘attitude’? can they be of any use in tdy’s context?!

now, the new ‘attraction’ lies in being able to do things with great moderation. last time i would feel that play alot, nv study = COOL!! *thumbs up*

now, i feel that it’s dam cuiz, and a totally ‘wth’ situation. i feel that ppl who are able to do things with great control and moderation are the really cool dudes. they know how to do things tt normal ppl dont. i mean, how difficult, and how much talent does it need to ‘just play and heck other stuff’? It doesnt require talent, it also doesnt require resilence and other positive traits. it just requires u to take things lightly, and heck majority of the stuffs arnd so that ur emphasis is just ‘play’ or , i dunno, something else. thats way too simple. we are 21(okay, soon)!! must do something that is more up-the-level, right!

i wonder if i m conveying my ideas across.

in a nut shell, HOT girls are everywhere and i m sure you are hot too.

last semester, i took up a module called human resource mgmt. althou i alw thought that the teacher was a cockster, he managed to sweep me off my feet when he said something v brilliant. something that nv came across my mind before. the difference bw entitlement and privilege.

thr is a difference between an ‘entitlement’ and ‘privilege’. alot of us behave as if certain things are ‘must have’s, and ‘ought-to-have’s. but is that really the case? are u sure that you ought to have certain things? or are u purely lucky that you once had some stuff, but lost them thereafter?

when we view something as an entitlement, it is akin to saying ‘hey, that is MINE. i should have it. no one can take it away from me because i haf the right to possess it’. well, you came into the world with nothing, and you WILL depart from this world with nothing too. nothing is truly YOURS.

yours

yOurs

Yours

when you start to have the mentality that you should have some stuff, you deserve better treatment, you really think these people who ‘took’ things away from yu are bastards/bastard-resses, think again.

in fact, i think that viewing things as if they are yr entitlement is a reflection of taking things for granted. taking things for granted is a disease, and a source of suffering. you only cherish them once you have lost them all. n you might ‘treasure’ them so much that you start faulting whoever ‘took’ them away from you. but, if you had made the conscious effort to protect, and keep wadeva belonged to you, would they have left?

playing the blame game is something considered a waste of time (to me ). no shoving of blame-s.

now, lets talk abt privilege! =)

when we are grateful to what we have, it IS a source of happiness. look no further, this moment is the moment to be happy. ppl always look to the future to be happy. they tell themselves. during hols i am surely happier. when i get attached, i will be happier, after i get married, i will be happier. after i haf kids, i will be happier, after i retire, i will be happier. why not say, after i enter the coffin, i will be happier? okay that is quite impossible. haha. enter coffin wanna emo also cant alr lox. =D

i think that when we are grateful to whatever things we have, wadeva responsibilities we hold, whatever frens we have, whatever shit experiences we’ve been thru, we can be happy.

yes we CAN.

jus look, do alot of ppl have the opportunity to study in a university? i guess, the answer is no. we are the fortunate bunch of bastards who have the privilege to study in a university. we must not only study for ourselves, but for people who have not been able to enter the university. if you do climb up the social ranks, please do something for the people who are suffering seriously bad karma. change their lives. i m not sure if i m able to be at that social position, but i would want to be that person who is able to contribute back. if i do die early, and i’m unable to do so, i hope that my frens will be the ones doing so.

haha okay i better stop writing. this entry seems aggressive. haha. WHOPS!

we’re always living day by day, taking for granted that we still have another day to live. its like a ‘duh’ thing to keep talking about things of tomorrow. it is like a ‘duh’ thing tt the person we care about can always live another 10, 20, 30 years. anw, it is a taboo to talk about death so our mind jus keeps on running away from the issue of death.

life is so unpredictable.. you wouldnt know when you’ll be struck with something. imagine urself being hit by a car, or having cancer. try to imagine that. hard to imagine, yes?

i must admit its hard for me to imagine that too cos we’re all too accustomed to thinking that our lives wil go on, and on, until we are tooo old to think, too old to move. until then, probably we would admit ‘we are too old, what can we do now?’

i will buy myself a coffin after i graduate and earned sufficient money. how long do you think a coffin can last? what if i buy it but i do not die within the next 15 years?

i think about my funeral more than any possible wedding. i think about what kind of funeral my parents would hold for me. i think about who would attend my funeral. i hope that during my funeral, my beloved friends, family, schoolmates, teacher, students or even acquaintances would attend it. i hope that they’ld want to see me one last time no matter how busy they are. 

if you were to attend my funeral, would you cry? if you were to speak some last words to the crowd, what would it be? would you feel that some1 important in your life is missing? would you miss my smile or my laughter when i m gone? would you be thr when i lie on the deathbed, shedding my last drop of happy tear to bid the world goodbye?

will i be remembered as a head-strong girl who have underachieved in life and living in self-denial?

would you visit my grave once in every ten years?

there are so many questions that i would like to know the answers to.

of course, i wouldnt know until the day i really die, and my spirit witnesses everything that happens. thinking about that, it makes me want to be the best that i can. to be a compassionate and loyal friend, to be one who’s always happy, proactive, and able to spread joy and hope to everyone around me. to be a good daughter and sister at home. for at the end of my life, i hope that people who attend my funeral are able to speak of positive things about me, to say that qianru has always been a girl who’s helpful, kind, sweet, forever understanding, compassionate and loyal.

please be there for my funeral.

haha!

u mus be thinking ‘why is qr writing abt the ideal man but not the ideal lady??’ haha, the ans is.. becos i m a girl/lady/woman/lao-zabor so i wont know the ans. haha or shld i make a guess?

1) obedient

2) hot bod and/or pretty face

3) kind

haha i dunno wad’s the yardstick for measurement of a gd gal but i think, those shld be the more common ones? and i dun fulfil that. not kind. i haf no hot bod. i cant b successfully obedient. ok i think it takes time to change. wait till i m 21 i tell u!! sure can fulfil that! (haha, i wish)

as the chinese saying goes ‘dang ju zhe mi’ which means the person who is exactly in the situation wil not know wad is going wrong! yes trust me! my chinese is pass one ok! so i seriously dunno wad guys wan

let’s talk abt the ideal man.

if u are a guy and u happen to read this entry, it is ur good karma! cos u are about to embark on a journey of crazy reaping of delicious benefits and great tips!

u gotta first fulfil the criteria of being a guy. if not, u may not be able to benefit from this entry. to check it u are a guy, please create a new tab, go to wikipedia.com to see what are the characteristics of a matured man. done??

alright! with that verification done, do read on!

if u wanna be that ideal guy

firstly, you need to be blessed with a good memory. some people are born with good memory. but, their memory is used for memorizing game codes, cheats, and all those nonsense.u name it (it=nonsense) they memorize it. or, they use it for memorizing car models, animae, and mainly school work. they memorize the nominal pipe diameters, the page whr they can find charts and tables, they learn how to use the calculator to do integration. Seemingly, these provide more kick than memorizing the date u all first knew each other. who her frens are. what happened on the first date. what the girl likes/dislike. her hobbies. her chronic problems. what she wore on the first date. how to do a boggie dance to make her smile. whr to find the stuff she likes. how to bake brownies/cookies (whichever she prefers) if u can memorize things like that, i can assure u that ur gf will be SUPERBLY amazed by u. okay i realise i haf used the wrong word. the word i used is ‘can’. of cos, u ‘can’ cos u seriously haf the ‘ability to’ memorize such stuff. it just boils down to whether u find these things worth memorizing. if u dun find it worthwhile of your time, then its okay lar. i mean, life is much more than jus a girl. probably thats wad u feel, and when u read the prev sentence, u mus haf nodded heavily. ha! i know. life goes on, the birds still chirp, the earth still rotates. yes, we all know that. ;D

secondly, you mus not be too concerned about your looks. girls loathe guys who alw need to haf a glimpse of themselves in the mirror. look at their chiselled bod, yea. and u cant be shopping all the time also. once a while is fine, but if u shop too much, the girl will haf a sense of insecurity. like, why on earth is a man spending so much time on his appearance and trying to look good??girls alw like to feel as if they are of 1st priority. looks definitely mus take a backseat!!

haf a talent.it may be a small talent. try not to be talented in telling yellow jokes. u get wad i mean? u can be talented in math. like for my bf. he does mental sum EXTREMELY accurately and quickly. then when we go out, i will take out my celly and use the calc function. he calcs dam fast. i think got x 10 my speed. haha okay. that is really attractive. guo ran is chinese high boy. u can be good at magic tricks too. but u knoe, thr are some xia4 jian4 magic tricks, and some purely entertaining ones. dun try to shove some coins down ur throat and make it appear under ur skin. thats very gross. i think u might lose the girl instead of jioing her lo. haha. serious. or make flowers appear from the back of their ears (or n. you know, things dont work this way. if u do so, the girl will be thinking ‘wad the heck. has he been using this trick in the jiang1 hu2 to trick xiau mei meis?!?’

last tip: do talk about your ex girlfren. if u say ‘oh she’s just some1 i used to like. nothing much. i haf nothing to say about her’

if u are such a person, please. heartless guys, girls can tell! u think we blind isit. and they wont trust you. so, be open. talk about the girl whom u last liked. and anithing she would want to know. if ur ex gf/fling/girl-whom-u-liked-but-didnt-get-together msgs u on msn, let ur gf see the chat windows. this will greatly boost the relationship and the trust associated with it. and, dont screw the girl in front of yr new girl. for instance, if ur ex gf calls u on the cell phone, dont say ‘hey i with gf now. fcuk off la’. if i am the girl, i’ll be wide eyed and say ‘no, YOU fuck off.’ of cos, some girls will be gloating and saying ‘whooas! how suave! screw another girl in front of me! thats way too cool!’ if thats wad u think, girl, u are on the wrong track!! go back to the right one!

exhibit traits of a filial son. start to do household chores, and help out in the family. i think this is by far, the surest way of winning a girl’s heart. of cos,  u try not to bust the girl x10 when u 2 are supposed to go on dates, jus becos u haf some family related stuff. for instance, cousin A’s chalet, cousin B’s dinner, cousin C’s zouk-gathering, aunty A’s lunchdate, help biao-jiu-mu catch a rendezvous.

ok! i tink my creative juices arent flowing properly today. shall stop now.

see ya soon frens!

jus now i went out for supper with my parents and di di. we were out to celebrate my getting A+ for HRM (haha i initiated tt) and i treat my family to supper!

we went to bukit timah to eat. u know, the place opposite beauty world? yes, thr.

we were cracking lame jokes and everything was fine until my mom started talking abt this ‘magic mirror’ thingy.

it was NOT fine.

she told us that she saw this lady selling ‘magic mirrors’ to ppl saying that it has multi purpose

it serves medical purposes such as being able to treat temporary deafness

and if you place your bottle of soy sauce on the piece of mirror, the soy sauce becomes sweet and is not salty (i mean, wad kinda soy sauce is that? not salty? COME ON!!)

then i was qt pissed so i asked my mom ‘mom, why? why can the piece of mirror make the soy sauce not salty?? it doesnt make sense! ‘

then she said ‘cos its magic mirror. it is able to absorb the salt content, do you know?’

i said ‘its impossible. how can the mirror absorb the salt content???’

then she insisted that it is possible. if idun believe i can try.

so i asked her, how much are the mirrors.

she said, 990 per piece.

w

t

h?!

its the most expensive mirror ive ever seen

and wad’s most worrying is that my mom seems to beleive. i m afraid that she buys them.

and u know wad, the mirrors are sold in pairs

i mena, pairs!!

that means 1980 dollars!

pleasee…….she was alr conned by dongfang billy to buy a 1.5K blender.now, its magic mirrors.

how can this be???

haha i haf been surviving with curly hair for abt… 3wks alr. hey! its not an easy task ok! i nv buy ‘curly hair mask’ (i m not sure if there’s such a product), i nv use wax, bouncy cream and all that.

my hair is like straightening alot already. gonna go back to the old ‘wavvy’ hairstyle that i used to sport. haha u mus be thinking ‘damn! 3wks only and its straightening out already?

yes u bet! its straightening at an exponential rate.

at first super curly. just like MAC DONALD’S CURLY FRIES!! that sounded very degrading. haha okay ,i mean, fresh curls k.

lets go thru the process of ‘curls loosening’ and what u need to b wary of if u want long lasting curls. (in order to make ur money WORTH!)

DISCLAIMER: anw, those are hear-says. that i have accumulated from frens who, unfortunately, also hearsay fm other ppl. hahha. the inaccuracy is imaginable. cos u know, when information cascades down, the accuracy is always lost. but u just read lar(discerningly)

1) TRY NOT TO SLEEP ON YOUR CURLS (from: Fujing, a fellow girls home volunteer) she said that when u sleep ON ur curls, it’ll flatten out. coupled with the fact that ur pillow traps heat, the heat wil enhance the un-curling process

2) DO NOT COMB YR HAIR UNNECESSARILY (from: Ai Wei, a senior from hall six) d accuracy if this is quite high cos aiwei herself has curly hair thats dam nice. to-die-for-curls. If u really haf a compulsiv disorder to comb hair, convert ur comb to a brush. a wide toothed brush

3) COMB WHEN ITS WET (from Ai wei, again) She says that combing when its dry will cause the curls to look diffused and it wil b dam ugly

4) Bun up yr hair when u sleep (From Fu Jing) She says that u gotta twirl and twirl ur hair till it curls up in a compact bun. Then, tie it up and sleep on the bun (with curls as fillings ) haha. okay u might not get d joke. that was COLD joke yeah.

5) use hair wax everyday(from Geraldine, my chem engin senior) she says that curls are in fact, artificial inducement and therefore wont last (well, easy come easy go principle applies) so, hair wax has to be used to prevent the hair from straightening day by day. look, for long hairs, the weight of the hair tends to pull the curls down so naturally u need a material to support the weight of the hair in order to maintain the curls

6) go for hair treatment(from Kanae my bro’s jap gf who currently sports curly hair. haha). she says that the hair will increasingly be dry and hair treatment is necessary to maintain the hair quality. if the hair quality is good, naturally the curls look better. frankly, mine is shrivelled and it looks like sahara desert now man. ytd i even cut off certain portion of my superbly tangled hair after spending 5mins detangling one spot only. waste my youth!! oh golden youth!!

7) do not tie up your hair (from Rou-Hui, my fellow Joint dance concert ticketing officer) she says that tying up hair makes the curls disappear. that sounded freaky but i haf not tied up my hair for dam long alr (ok, with the exception of the few hours while playing ISG)

haiyar, just go for temporary curls. looks better. seriously.

when i wear sleeveless and the locks of curls swept past my back, it felt very much like dreadlocks or sth. u knoe, when u haf straight hair (which u probably haf right now) the flow and motion of hair feels continuoous. but when u curl it, thats when ur world starts crumbling and u feel that the motion of hair across ur back feels like a ’step function’. very discontinuous. i hated that feeling. but that only lasted one day. the next day, the curls loosened.

and it loosened

loosened

and its now, in a -i dunno-wad state.
