Despite the avalanche ... http://florecitos.blogsome.com/2009/07/02/it-was-an-accident/ This would be the second time I have gone to KL to take an exam, the first being the DELE when I was in year 2. But of course this time, I’d be going alone. Yesh, I am not going with ******* as some seniors cheekily asked after ... http://florecitos.blogsome.com/2009/06/14/the-kl-experience/ I haven’t been neglecting this blog like what some people say… It’s just that there’s an utter lack of things that I can say there :( Whether it’s about my experience in the CDC or how I am NOT getting a bonus this year, everything’s simply too sensitive ... http://florecitos.blogsome.com/2009/06/09/774/ It has just struck me, in the midst of an intensive preparation course for upcoming exams (which is going rather horribly), that I’ve just about completed my first year as an MO.

I wouldn’t say we had achieved the perfect painless death, nor had the entire process gone as I would have wanted ... http://florecitos.blogsome.com/2009/02/28/random-thoughts-of-this-month/ I’ve always known my feelings were related to the songs I listen to. For eg. during a low point in life (a good example would be like a breakup) or during a special point of life (for eg. the time I spent in Hungary), my feelings would get ... http://florecitos.blogsome.com/2009/02/22/the-cochlear-olfactory-nerves/ Rating: ***/5 ‘The Curious Case of Benjamin Button’ is a curious movie indeed. Despite being built upon a fantastical plot of a man who is born old and gets younger as time passes, the movie is actually quite realistic. Benjamin Button (Brad Pitt) is born a baby who looks ... http://florecitos.blogsome.com/2009/02/22/the-curious-case-of-benjamin-button-directed-by-david-fincher/ Playing with my new ipod touch, my very own bday present to myself is a perfect alternative to counting sheep when i can’t sleep.
