"Landscape with the Fall of Icarus"

Quote-worthy-

Patke: Okay boys and girls you can go!
Killjoy lecturer woman: NO PATKE WE HAVE TO COUNT THE SCRIPTS!
Patke: Oh.. it should be fine right?

Patke: It's so nice seeing all of you here.. for the last time.. and the first time.

Rohai: When i saw the question i was like, OMG IT'S LILLY'S ESSAY! Lucky i have it with me
Lilly: When i saw the question i was like, OMG i didnt bring my own essay!
Me: When i saw the question i was damn angry! i thought, HOW DARE PATKE choose a question done before by us in essays?
Rohai: You're just upset you didn't bring lilly's essay.

Me: WE have to eat nothing but nuts and chicken rice for the rest of the month because i've shopped myself broke.
Nick: Well... you deserve it you studied hard!
(this is not a funny quote it just justifies my spending for today)

Me: Don't you think it's a bit weird that we're printing notes 18 mins before the exam?
Rohai: NO LA IT'S FINE LA

Lilly: we're late!
Me: (after wandering LT8 like a lost sheep for 2 mins or so) OMG where is my seat?
Random Girl: (looking up from her paper) I dont know!

Lilly: (at the end of the paper) Jess.. i know where you went wrong. When we entered you shouldve turned LEFT.. but alas, you turned right.

-before the paper-
Rohai: I don't have Ashbery
Me: I don't have Painting with Words
Lilly: I only have one pen
Algin: OH.. never mind la it's open book right? we can put our hands up and borrow from people..

Lecturer of Singapore Society (insert name): Let's do a bit of revision before the paper.. What is the number one reason for divorce in Singapore?

Good old-fashioned lover boy

"I thought of that old joke, y'know the, this... this guy goes to a psychiatrist and says, "Doc, i think my brother's crazy; he thinks he's a chicken". And the doctor says, "Well why dont you turn him in?" The guy says, "I would, but i need the eggs". Well, I guess that's pretty much how i feel about relationships; you know, they're totally irrational, and crazy, and absurd, but.. I guess we keep going through it because, most of us... need the eggs."

[Woody Allen in Annie Hall (1977)]





This weekend i celebrated my first one year anniversary ever; i will say it, our relationhip may be the noisiest and most absurd of all chickens sometimes, but the eggs are priceless.
