Big laughs

I loved the way the chlorinated pool water lashed across my back while I fought my way across the pool. It's been a while since I last swam (maybe half a year ago?), and I swear my lungs took a beating. Thanks to Jane's coercion/persuasion/encouragement, we covered 20 laps in under an hour. Marvellous way to start the day off.

And HongYing's off to China to reunite with Ben!!! *Gushes* Can you believe that I was more excited than she was just a few weeks ago? Perhaps it's just me who likes to see people get together, not go their separate ways. It gets to me when I see close friends break up with their partners, because if there's a possibility of breaking up, why get together in the first place? Just to break up? I was analysing this loosely with Fay yesterday while shopping, and I came up with this nonsensical theory.

兩個人在一起，是爲了分手。
(The reason for two people to get together is to break up.)
兩個人分手，是爲了和別人在一起。
(The reason for breaking up is to be with someone else.)
兩個人在一起，是爲了讓其中一方有機會劈腿。
(The reason for two people to get together, is for one party to have the opportunity to cheat on the other.)
一方劈腿，是爲了分手。
(The reson for cheating on someone is to break up with them.)

分手，是因爲厭倦了。
(The reason for breaking up, is because you're sick and tired of it all.)



I swear I was laughing for longest time when I concocting this crappy theory.


And results were out today. I'm still feeling a little sore over that particular module, and I attributed it TOTALLY to the fact that my absurd behaviour towards my tutor had cost me a decent grade. Apart from that, the other grades were very much anticipated. I've gone beyond moping over my results and being calculative over the minute improvement in my CAP; I'm aiming for much higher goals next semester, and I know I'll be able to do it because I'm so very blessed to have the hugs and kisses from Jack. The darling did extremely well this semester, and I'm so proud of him. And not to mention that we did well because we played our part in our own studies, and not receiving unrequitted help from others. Then I'd rather not score well at all.
Because it's not your own effort.
