I'VE GOT ARROGANCE TO A SCIENCE; --{care to try and learn?/

"All species today descend, with modifications, from pre-existing life-forms." Indeed. Extrapolating further, it is easy to see how we might all share a common evolutionary ancestor. At this juncture however, allow me make a less audacious claim: Phylogenetically, I fall under the family: Ursidae. Essentially or rather genetically, this means I'm a bear. Allow me to justify. To begin, we see that all bears have to endure long European winters and to do so, they hibernate. During this period of inactivity, they enter suspended animation and live off the fats in their body. Now like them, for approximately the same time of year, every year, i live on minimal food, entering some form of suspended animation. Unlike the bear however, i do not have fats to live off. Accordingly, i conclude that i am a highly evolved bear since i can live solely on air. Anyway, for the past two weeks i have not been having breakfast and lunch, living on only a meal a day, everyday. Goodness, i feel like some refugee.

Well, I wouldn't mind having a more voracious appetite but i guess that's just me, my appetite dies whenever i under stress and the only time i eat added portions is when i exercise. Or maybe, there wasn't anything tempting enough to wet my appetite (for the past two weeks): no pastries, no tarts, no confectionery, no chocolate, no Maggi mee even, only kopi...which brings me to the fact that i think i can only tolerate 20g sachets of kopi and not the 40g ones (the 20 g ones are nescafe while the 40 g ones are some ipoh white coffe). Quite a pity because i hate kopi but the 40g ones went down well with my palate but certainly not my stomach. It seems that i get a tummy ache whenever i down too much coffee especially on an empty stomach. I realise i haven't been updating recently but then again, if my stomach doesn't even get pirority then i think you shouldn't ask for too much. Oh yes, i would like to wish those going on the Taiwan trip, a safe and fruitful holiday. It a pity i can't go, i guess my decision came too late. Previously, i coouldn't commit because i wasn't too sure if i would be needing the extra cash but now that my sis has gotten the teaching award and accordingly, i can boldly spend my money, the trip's finalized. Anyway, the trip's peripheral. It good that my sis got the award. Kind of cool hur, both me and my sis teach haha. Probably frame the picture i took with Tharman as well my sis's coming one hehe. Hopefully i can attend her award ceremony because the last time i went alone and i didn't stay for the buffet. This time round however, i'm going not going to pass on the good food and make good for my last lost opportunity. I can still remember my award ceremony, it was a rainy afternoon, and i had to walk all the way, through the puddles, decked in smart attire, from Clarke Quay Mrt to Copthorne hotel. Oh yeah, i recall there was a rehersal as well and tianwei was the one acting for tharman haha. Anyway, now that both me and my sis teach, i guess that makes my mum shi-mu bah haha (translating literally from teacher's mother that is). Oh yeah, was contemplating to send you guys off but i guess, if you all insist then i go lor other wise i don't want to spoil the fun.
