Dreams.

There are things in life worth fighting for.

YOU are one of them.
and YOUR dreams as well.

So we are never going to stop here.


:))

and just when i've given on finding stuff to read on the net....

A doctor and a lawyer were attending a cocktail party when the doctor was approached by a man who asked advice on how to handle his ulcer.

The doctor mumbled some medical advice, then turned to the lawyer and asked, "How do you handle the situation when you are asked for advice during a social function?"
"Just send a bill for such advice" replied the lawyer.

On the next morning the doctor arrived at his surgery and issued the ulcer-stricken man a $50 bill. That afternoon he received a $100 bill from the lawyer.

muahhha.

and for lawyer jokes (i know i know everyone loves to diss us left, right and centre...)

Merry-Go-Round

It's funny how at the end of all this, I'm still going to have to go to NUS!

Friday.

Am I loud and clear or am I breaking up?
Am I still your charm or am I just bad luck?
Are we getting closer, or are we just getting more lost?

I'll show you mine if you show me yours first
Let's compare scars I'll tell you whose is worse
Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words

[Chorus]
We live on front porches and swing life away
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor I'll slave 'til the end
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand

I've been here so long; think that its time to move
The winter's so cold summer's over too soon
so let's pack our bags and settle down where palm trees grow

I've got some friends, some that I hardly know
But we've had some times I wouldn't trade for the world
We chase these days down with talks of the places that we will go

- Swing Life Away, Rise Against

There comes a point in life where you're just so damn tired - that all you hope for is that every single facade of life goes according to plan.

Regardless.

I think I haven't been a terrible person - I've been mean a couple of times, late on numerous occasions, told a number of lies and perhaps swore at random things and at people on random occasions, rolled up eyes when i'm not happy and have been impatient possibly on more occasions then I would like.

But then, I still don't think I'm a terrible person. I've never tried to intentionally hurt someone that I didn't know. I never mean to spite people and I try my best to treat my friends and the people I love as best as I can. Sometimes, I put their welfare before mine. And so, I don't think I'm a terrible person.

I'm not an amazing person, but I'm not terrible either.

And so, horrible people should really live me alone. Let me live my life and get out of mine. Leave things that don't belong to you (and they possibly never will) alone.

Because I'm a much better person than you'll ever be. I'm going to a whole lot more successful than you'll ever be able to imagine or comprehend. My dreams and ambitions you'll never understand or even dare to dream about.

The friends I have, I know, though arguably won't be as many as you have, will stick up for me whenever the situation calls for it.

So yah-boo sucks to you (sorry max! :|).

I hope i never meet you. for all this pain that you've put me through.

In other news though, I filed my notice of intention today! and now, it's on the Supreme Court notice board. whee.

And the hardest part
Was letting go not taking part
Was the hardest part

And the strangest thing
was waiting for that bell to ring
It was the strangest start

I could feel it go down
It is sweet I could taste in my mouth
Silver lining the clouds
Oh and I
I wish that I could work it out

And the hardest part
Was letting go not taking part
You really broke my heart

And I tried to sing
But I couldn't think of anything
That was the hardest part

I could feel it go down
You left the sweetest taste in my mouth
Your silver lining the clouds
Oh and I
Oh and I
I wonder what it's all about

I wonder what it's all about

Everything I know is wrong
Everything I do just comes undone
And everything is torn apart

Oh and it's the hardest part
That's the hardest part
Yeah that's the hardest part
That's the hardest part

Leo Lesson Number 6: After every week, when it all ends - the classes, the madness, the interlocutory hearings, the mad printing, stapling, swearing at the stupid photocopying machine, copious cups of coffee, running up and down the stairs, signing in at 9.15 otherwise you'll be dead and a whole host of other really random things... remember to have fun.

Yup and so we do. Some go for drinks and cigarettes, others go for chocolate and coffee and very good dinners after, some go home to their partners or go hang out with their boyfriends. But yes, we do all those things because it's finally Friday and it's a crazy week.

I always wish I can run straight home to YOU after Leos because that's where I find the greatest comfort and the greatest peace. Just right there in your arms watching tv. Now though, since it's going to be a while more... i find the greatest comfort in the laughter of my friends over chocolate, coffee, tea, steak and loads of other good food. Because it's the best when you have people who understand the subtleties behind that whole string of words that's hard to put together after one entire week of work.

This my friends, is what i call code.

Lesson 3: When the materials teaching you how to present matters in Court tell you to say "we" you should really say "i"

Lesson 4: Judges like to make things really difficult for you sometimes, so therefore, everything that comes out of your mouth needs to mean something and needs to go towards something.

Lesson 5: The "judge" in my court room today commented to ALL the girls, even me, and said that we all have very soft voices :|

In other news,


I've been in love with Burberry Check Lowry Bag since laying my eyes on it at the Burberry sale one fine December afternoon. The only problem with it though is that the bag in itself is very heavy, and therefore, knowing how much stuff I lug around all the time.... I would have to go for something slightly lighter. or smaller, from the same collection. Ah. the beauty of Burberry! :))

Lesson 1: s. 39 of the Wills Act 1997 states that all beneficiaries must survive the testator by at least thirty days.

Lesson 2: Order 22.02 empowers the Court to grant summary judgement in interlocutory applications.

As much as we, as lawyers, through the process of law school and training learn how to tell untruths in such a way that they could be accepted as truths in those not in the known, it's not very nice to get caught not knowing in the middle of proceedings.

gah. lest we forget!

From the new collection at Chanel. hai. so pretty.
