*I spent 5 minutes thinking of a clever title and........... NOTHING!*

That's testimony to how mentally drained I am from studying for something that doesn't even count towards my final degree. Damn you, kaisu-ness!

I am less than a day away from flying half way across the globe back to my beloved Oxford to sit for an exam that counts for nothing. But I shall not despair despite having a very VERY uneventful winter holiday where I got sick twice and spent a good amount of time on work, because when I get back to Oxford, I will be able to savour and thoroughly enjoy another 8 weeks of intense hell. Whoop di doo! (wtf damn gay)

Well, I really am not all that bummed. And I only complain because I find it amusing.......err in a very twisted way. I am contented and happy with life. In fact, recently, I have been thanking God spontaneously when I get very morbid thoughts because I am grateful none of them (although some are quite far-fetched like how an army of ants will come attack me because I killed its queen when I didn't actually kill its queen) have happened. It is quite weird I know but I have been doing it very frequently lately.

Hmmm, well there isn't anything intellectually stimulating here(what's new) but I realized yesterday that my family owns a lot of CDs. Original CDs! I mean living in Malaysia, you would think that the temptation of supporting piracy might cripple us but no, we actually have got so many original CDs! (I say 'original' as if it is such an achievement for not giving in to piracy haha)

Ok first is my collection:


I mean nothing impressive I admit. And yes I have an unhealthy number of Britney Spears' albums *cringe*. I used to really like her *cringefuckingcringe*. And my Spongebob is uber cool. Thank you Happy Meal.


Ok and then my dad's CD collection:


That's quite a lot don't you think? Definitely more than mine lah. I mean I have stopped collecting CDs already. *then where do you get your music from Ju?*

And finally my brother's collection which puts mine and my dad's to shame!





And there are more in those drawer like CD holders but he wouldn't let me open them because I think he doesn't want me to mess up his stuff. But in any case, that's plenty right! And all original! 

Well I just thought it was amusing.. Also because all our CD's are in plastic covers. lol

haha I am so lifeless, I decided to count the number of CDs we all have..

I have 83 (wimp!). My dad has 242. And my brother, there were too many and I lost count half way so I am estimating 850 CDs, maybe more...

That amounts to about 1924 CDs and if each CD was on average RM40, that's RM 76,960 ! WTF NO ONE SHOULD LOVE MUSIC THAT MUCH!


Haih anyway, I am leaving tomorrow night. I shall try to be optimistic but the circumstances do not look very promising...
