Yesterday i
went for collin's b-day
party all the way in some ulu place
in the world.
and being the social creature i was
i decided to introduce some ppl to
each other.
me: "Hey Nat! This is Ken, Ken meet Nat"
*Points to Ken"
Nat: "Erm, Ken is from DENT and so am I
so i think i know him?"
(So i was quite a bit embarrassed and
decided to make up for my mistake by
introducing someone who wasn't from
DENT or Med to Nat since she would
know them from lecture. Just so happened
that there was this other guy named Ken
who was from engineering so i jumped
at that opportunity)
Me: "Nat! let me introduce u to this other
guy named Ken! He's a different Ken, not the
dent one!"
Nat:" Erm, Ken right? I think i know him!"
Me: "NO! I don't think u do. this one is not from dent!"
Nat:"Yes i know there are two Kens here right?"
Me:"Yes? you mean u've met the other Ken?"
Nat: "I think i know this other Ken better than the Dent Ken"
Me:"Huh i'm very confused"
*At this moment Joelin decided to come in
to give her two cents' worth*
Joelin:"Er, the other Ken is Nat's Boyfriend"
I can't believe i tried to introduce
nat to her boyfriend.
there goes my reputation.

people say
that mind can defeat matter.
so i decided to try it out with the cold
weather today.
after all the cold is all that's in my mind.
my mom used to make milo for me in the morn
and tell me that the piping steaming cup
was not hot and that it was all in my head
that the water was hot when in fact
it was really quite lukewarm.
it's all in your head.
when u run a marathon,
the distance u run seems forever but it's
all in your head.
when u become insane and believe u are sane,
it's all in your head.
all the voices and everything make u
believe.
so everything is actually a mental thing.
so why not the cold?
so today i woke up feeling a bit insane.
i wore slippers and shorts and a mere tee-shirt.
afterall cold is in my head.
i'm only as cold as i think i'm cold.
so all i needed to do was to mentally
prepare myself to think of hot stuff like
ovens, radiators, fire and jessica alba
so that i would be mentally warm.
and then i took a deep breathe and walked out.
the conclusion i drew was that:
i do not have much mental power.
heck it.
i mentally accept that i am mentally weak.
it was so cold that i think my
toes disappeared.
