NAUSEANT
I thought I've already seen the worst in Analytical Chemistry.
But, as it's been said, one mountain always got one mountain higher.

What the banana.
One word. Siao.
And it's so painful whenever my lecturer goes, "Isn't this just so fascinating? The way how everything works?". And he wasn't even trying to be funny. That man totally LOVES it wholeheartedly. I - and almost everyone else - feel so thoroughly grossed out.
Finals are really coming.
Till then.

Her
This is the lady here, and she can be your new best friend.
Family first, then friends.
Lizards should be skinned alive, rubbed in salt and spices, and fried in boiling oil, no less.
Human being should be enabled to teleport, or at least have an internal GPS for convenient navigation.
Mathematics should just stick to only numbers. Algebra is not math; it's alphabets.
are Art. And don't get me started on Physics.
She would love to learn the guitar.
Already heading in that direction! (=
Gave up.
Terribly and shamefully and hopelessly and ridiculously and horrifyingly directionally-challenged is she (don't ask).
Fats and adipose cells should have negative feedback inhibition mechanism, really.
Don't invite her to sun-tanning. She firmly believes that skin is definitely not for the purpose of roasting under the UV-intensive sun.

Her Facts!
She craps substantially, but is subtly pragmatic at heart.
Chocolates keep her contented like a Cheshire cat.
Korean food is the best cuisine.
She has a soft spot for alcoholic drinks. Thank God she has a low tolerance for alcohol.So she can't drink much. Damnit.
LASIK!!! Someday!!! Yes!!! LASIK!!! Done!
Going onto 21 and dreading it with all her guts. Already hit 21. Tragically sad.
An ardent seafood lover.
She's blunt and straight-forward. Yes, quite.
Her first, serious ambition was to be a journalist, reporter, or an author.
At times, she's indecisive and takes eons to come to a decision, and tends to sit a tad too comfortably on the fence. Putting it in a nicer way, she's a neutral and democratic sweet little darling.
She believes firmly that the pen is mightier than the sword, and that words can kill.
When overjoyed, she'll be hyperactive, jump around like a bunny rabbit, and grin stupidly all day.
When hungry, she'll yak and chatter even more. Just like a broken voice recorder.
When upset, she'll be quiet, gloomy, and have no appetite.
When stressed, she sleeps. Escapism, they call it?
She raises her right eyebrow when she's amused.
Whenever both her eyebrows are furrowed for whatever reasons, don't push your luck.
She can be quite opinionated - especially towards things that she's concerned about - even though she seldom voices them out.
They say she's stubborn. Hey, she's not! NOOO!
Words of affirmation are not her cup of tea; they always make her feel compelled to measure up to expectations. Give her words of encouragement instead.
She wears her emotions on her sleeves, and she's in a love-hate relationship with it because it is both a pro and con to be able to be read like an open book.
She would love to visitS. Korea (done!), New Zealand, and Bora Bora someday!
She strongly advocates open and effective communication, and believes that the sun should never set upon an argument.
It is her belief that love ULTIMATELY wins.

Her Likes!
Dogs are man's best friends.
She finds men who wear cologne simply irresistible. It catches her attention.
She loves to indulge sinfully in dark chocolates.
She totally digs black pepper seasoning.
Elegant silver-chain watches - with rectangular faces - totally mesmerize and captivate her.
She simply loves to laugh; she is LOL personified. They say she has quite an unique laughter.
In her humble opinion, Coffee Buns, garlic bread, sushi, rice dumplings, Taiwan sausages, sotong, onion eggs, and Tiong Bahru Chwee Kueh should rule the gastronomical world.
She loves to read. All kinds of books; in particular self-help books and non-fiction books.
Yes, She positively adores Nicholas Tse and Andy Lau. MOST OF ALL, DBSK!!! They're just so handsome and dashing and charming and confident and gorgeous and poised and charismatic and mature, can?
Martin Smith has the world's pair of most beautiful and soulful eyes.
She loves mushrooms with a fervent passion.
An avid fish-lover is she. Not breed or rear them, mind you. She simply loves to EAT them - steamed, sauteed, fried, braised, grilled, raw. Whatever.

She Abhors!
Sharks Fin soup, Hor Fan, Bak Gua, sour plums, prunes, oranges, and anything sour. She has never touched those stuff since young.
Never ever ever ever call her "Lin" - unless you are her Grandma - because it just simply irks her to the core.
She does not like suspense. SURPRISE is one thing, SUSPENSE's totally another.
Lizards are the most disgusting and filthy creature ever to strut the Earth.
Mathematics should be abolished and uprooted. Totally and completely and unceremoniously. Chinese and Physics come in a close second and third respectively.
Albert Einstein is her nemesis; her arch enemy. He's the root cause of her misery.
Don't pull or tug her hair. She'll bare her razor-sharp teeth and snap her jaw at you.
Never ever touch her cheeks unless you're someone special to her. Yes, not even a poke or a light stroke.
She gets irritated when people imitate her wonderful and melodious laughter.
Most importantly, respect her if you treat her a friend, yes. Basic respect and courtesy at least.
FATS!!!
