I have a job now.But it's nothing big.. I go to town, count traffic of cars and commuters, and finish in two hours. One day is around 50-100 though, so it's not bad. However, I only go when there's not enough people to man the place. They only need four, and usually it's more than enough so I get left out ._.
I have to decide what I should buy with my first few days of moolah though.
I already have an MP3 with spiffy earphones to top that, a new bag (moreover godparents are still insisting on the crumpler + laptop), and jacket (I use it when my sister doesn't). Okay so maybe I'll either get a nice wallet (OH. HOHO. ELLE.), pencilbox, shoes (that M-industrie one better be there with new stocks ._.), fcuk board shorts, or maybe those spectacles I wanted.

I intend to sell off some stuff on eBay, and maaayybee, just maybe get myself an accoustic guitar. The Ibanez baby can wait, I don't even know my chords right. XDI'll play like Tetsu! Or KEN! :D
Then all shall fear me and my singing prowess. He who dares to provoke me shall die a most excruciatingly-painful-to-the-ears death!
Of course, I have to cut my hair so that it looks spikier instead of it's current unkept and dishevelled self.
Chun's mum makes the best claypot rice and tea. \o/
Rona, thanks for the friendship band. I'll never take it off unless.. unless... worms start growing on my legs and I have to amputate them.
Aha but then I still have my wrists! Even if they get sliced off by a chainsaw..
... CHOI!
Alright alright, I shan't digress any longer.
If I do happen to get my munnies...
I WILL GO SHOPPING!!
(And maybe grab a fish wrap along the way. :D)

Had a great time with Rona, Andy, Chun and Xinhan. :DWe finally had fish wrap, and okay, remind me just to buy one fish wrap without the chips thingy, urgh.
Played Rona's board game in Chun's house, and enjoyed it! *muah!* Thanks min for making it so fun :D Too bad Andy won, he got min's luck haha!
We'll be hopping over there again tomorrow, just for another game.
Going to catch some sleep now, oyasumi.
I need to rant. YES I DO. IT'S A HOBBY.
I got eff'ing cranky a few days back. Because a question was raised and an answer was already present. Note: "Just wanting your opinion" doesn't count. No, it doesn't fucking count at all.
I absolutely HATE it when people ask me something and they already have an answer to it. Like it's excruciating necessary to see how supposedly 'pointless' my opinion is to them. To go like "No lor, I think so-and-so is better" after I said whazizname owned so-and-so.
You may be taking 'rhetorical questions' too seriously. Wait a minute, rhetorical questions don't even require an answer! WHY DO YOU STILL ASK THEN, DAMN IT.
If my answer was so redundant, why do you even bother to ask? For the sake of triumphantly waltzing over my wrong answer; for your own elation?
Oh yes mighty lord, you are always right.
And I have said umpteen times to not EVER do that again (with please and thank you's), but apparently my words have no meaning, or I was speaking in Glorlish.
When I flare up and retort about this, I still end up apologising.
OH WOW.
Roll up, roll up -
'tis stupidity at it's best.
Noel, I'm sorry.
However.
I know you can. Everyone does.
I don't think so, I know so.
It can be done - because it has been.
But to hell with that, it won't matter.
To hell with stress, it won't matter.
To hell with silver, it won't matter.
When you get gold.
Shinjite kure!
The adrenaline rush will power you.
The cheers will drive you.
The unison will conquer all.

Okay.
Running is fun.
I wonder why I never took much of initiative in secondary school now..
I tried a kilometre today, and ended up with 10 minutes.
I actually feel better, considering I haven't ran in years, literally; and my feet hurt to the ends of the earth. Apart from that, I think maaayybeee this can be done. I'll work on it, because I don't think I'll be given the same priveledge like in seconday school.
Oh well, no pain no gain. :D
But right now, I have the craving for...
FISH WRAAAPPPPP!!
But has anyone noticed how good looking Gackt is? He just may be as good as Hyde, or better! He had his own band, was ex-vocalist of Malice Mizer, and is still so dashing. :D

Min and Yin, remember your ever-irritating older colleague you felt like kicking halfway around the world? Well, I'm sure you don't want to remember, but at least now you're happy you're off her hook.What was her name again? Oh, right, F_ _ _ _.
Oh my, Blogspot must have ~magical~ powers to censor the most hideous name in the world. (No dimwits, if you count there are 5 letters, it can't possibly spell "fuck". Who'd have a name like "fuck" anyway?! (I wonder why fuck isn't "censored" too, hm.)
(Then again who would be named "f_ _ _ _" anyway. XDDDDD Shit, stop censoring that!)
Oh well. I was looking through Dictionary.com today, and me being myself, typed in "buttocks".
... What? It's fun finding out similar words for cursing other people and them not knowing what it means. :D
But that's not the point. What did I find?
Main Entry: buttocks
Part of Speech: noun
Definition: rear
Synonyms: back end, backside, behind, bottom, bum, butt, derriere, fanny, fundament, gluteus maximus, haunches, hindquarters, posterior, rear, rump, seat.
Looky, the censor's all gone.
But, oh my, that does prove my point about her being such an ass then. :D
She should be called Gluteus Maximus though, it sounds so much
This post is for the both of you. I MISS YOU TWO SO MUCH! *squeeze* Yin, get well soon okay! We just have to go out sometime soon. Min, gahaha we're probably gonna wreck Ikea. :D

I don't understand smokers.
Some of them told me that it's not "addictive", but just a "habit".
Chyeah right, tell that to me when you've actually quit. Don't fucking tell me you "can", because that's not convincing. Hay look, I r quittar~
You do realise you sound absofuckinglutely stupid when you actually say that it's not an "addiction" but a "habit" you've grown "used to".
It's not even "interesting" to see a girl turn into some super-churning chimney, it's usually more like pity thrown towards them because they need something to "pass the time, but since they know how to smoke just smoke lor" (insert Hokkien phrase of "eat finish nothing to do" here). They really have no idea how ugly it actually looks, smacking their lips around a piece of paper with something inside that they pay so much for. Something that actually kills them eventually.
Score one for the morons of society. \o/
Smoking isn't even considered a fucking "pastime", much less some kind of "skill" you can be proud of because it can make you die faster.
And you bunch of assholes are so fucking irritating, doing it in public where everyone around you gets a whiff of not only your breath, but the stench of your smoke. Like the former wasn't bad enough. I'd be more than glad to punch your teeth so far down your ass you'd have to smoke from your fucking anus. Look ma, no hands!
If you want to kill yourself, the least you could do is not fucking drag others with you lah.

I got bored at home.And time flies by fast when you're enjoying oekaki.
I started with paint:
Then tweaked stuff with Photoshop.
... Okay maybe time doesn't go by really fast, considering I only spent 10 minutes on the sketch, another 15 on the colouring, and maybe 23.46 seconds on touch-ups.
Yes yes slipshod, I know. Not like I'm some artist anyway, does time even matter D:
Oh and, just so you know, I never intended to draw Ichigo. Spiky hair just makes everything look like him now.
Oh wells, at least it doesn't look like Roy, anyway. XDD
Regarding the picture bearing the "Efayria" signature instead of my name - that's because I go by my DeviantART account.

KYA. Everyone has to watch this (yes, click here) L'arc~en~Ciel's Love Love Aishiteru interview!The girl is so funny, but Tetsu is so mean.. bullying her with the baseball shooting toy! And Ken's just sniffing the aerosol can and speaking in a chipmunk pitch, which was fecking hilarious. XD
... HYDE IS JUST SO PERVERTED. XD
Just for reference's sake:
(I know my Japanese vocabulary is limited, so I don't exactly know all of their conversations. But by actions you'd definitely understand. :D)
"くらえ!!" = It's sort of like a "Take that!"
"こんにちは" = ..need I explain a konnichiha? >_>
"さしぶり" = "Long time no see"
"かわいい顔してるよね？" = "You have a cute face, don't you?"
"君が欲しい" = "I want you"
"キスして" = Asking for a kiss
And this part where she asks for a present in exchange:
Girl: "何か下さい, 何か下さい･･ 何か下さい。" (it's something like "could I have something please")
Hyde: "何欲しいの？" ("What would you like?")
Girl: "もう, 何でもいいです･･ ラルクアンシエルさん私物とか？私物とか下さい。" ("Aiyah, anything is okay.. How about L'arc~en~Ciel's personal stuff? Some of your personal items please.")
Hyde: *takes off pants*
It was SO hilarious. XD
So much for private items, haha! Any fan would've died to get into Hyde's pants though, she's so lucky :D
Oh and if you can't see the stuff I typed and appears in weird font/boxes, you may have to change your IE/Firefox encoding to Unicode instead. ^^;

Nickelback's "Far Away"This time, this place
Misused, mistakes
Too long, too late
Who was I to make you wait?
Just one chance,
Just one breath,
Just in case there's just one left.
'Cause you know,
you know, you know..
That I love you,
I have loved you all along.
And I miss you,
Been far away for far too long.
I keep dreaming you'll be with me,
and you'll never go.
Stop breathing if
I don't see you anymore.
On my knees, I'll ask,
Last chance for one last dance.
'Cause with you, I'd withstand,
All of hell to hold your hand.
I'd give it all,
I'd give for us,
Give anything but I won't give up.
'Cause you know,
you know, you know..
That I love you,
I have loved you all along.
And I miss you,
Been far away for far too long.
I keep dreaming you'll be with me,
and you'll never go,
Stop breathing if
I don't see you anymore.
So far away (so far away)
Been far away for far too long
So far away (so far away)
Been far away for far too long
But you know, you know, you know..
I wanted,
I wanted you to stay
'Cause I needed,
I need to hear you say
That I love you,
I have loved you all along.
And I forgive you,
For being away for far too long.
So keep breathing,
'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore.
Believe it,
Hold on to me and, never let me go.
Keep breathing,
'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore.

I guess I like it because it just happens to be pretty much significant. To me, at least. Call me emo, but I love their songs.
Thanks Bryan for the other Nickelback songs. =)
Nyahahaha~ Noel and I finally conspired and succeeded in gaining the final L'arc~En~Ciel song for ourselves! The power of recording! (Shit, should've sent him the one I was singing to, haha! =D)
And with that, I think my hay's asking me to hit it.

I never realised how good-looking Hyde from L'arc~en~Ciel looked. ;_;
Aliman, yes, Teppei is cute and undeniably lovable. BUUTTTT, Hyde is classified as suave and absolutely drop-dead-gorgeous. Sharp facial features, excellent vocals, funny, perverted (used to be ;_;), possesses a gorgeous smile, and even when he looks serious, it's a pinch-my-face-kekeke kinda thing which you can't resist.
Hyde (and maybe Gackt (yes, the guy who used to be from Malice Mizer)) are the only people able to wear tight clothes and pull it off without looking like homosexual ventriloquist puppets.
Anything against him will be poked in the eye and have another finger up the nose. Twice. <\3
Anyhow. In the MTV for one of their songs, "Link" (also the opening theme for 鋼の錬金術師/Full Metal Alchemist's movie), Hyde's hair was so fecking awesome. I could've died happy watching the video. (Oh, if you want to watch the MTV, it's on my Friendster profile. If it's not there, it's possible to find it on YouTube or if you want to be lazy, just give me a holler - I'll show it to you. <3)
Too bad he's married, back then he was such a funny pervert. XD
Onto more randomness:
From what I've heard, Google is coming up with a payment system to compete with PayPal (I heard it wasn't all that good anyway), and what would this new system be named as?
Apparently..
GBuy.
XD
When I saw this, I proceeded to laugh my way off the chair.
Man, this wouldn't be any funnier even if someone made it up. XD

I, Gloria Chua, hereby vow to be less violent, less vulgar, and more feminine in words, actions, thoughts and the fashion statements of others.I will make it a point to look more like a girl.
Not slutty.
Or tomboy-ish.
I CAN be a girl.
I'll prove it to you. =_=;
Grrr.
/rant_on
I hate being evasive about something, but it ends up being a must to avoid or someone will end up hurt. And that sucks donkey ass, because I know that person deserves way better instead of trying to ask someone like me to go out. I'd rather get hurt, but if I don't tell it's as bad as cheating you. If I do, it's like slapping you in the face with a palm as big as Buddha's. (Eh, bad analogy.. but I'm just emphasizing the palm size, nothing with religion okay o_o Don't kill me.)
Okay, look;
1) I am downright idiotic, evil to the core, and/or whatchumacallittomakethisgettoyou.
2) I am not in the least bit feminine. (I don't care if that makes it 'me')
3) We don't even have anything in common apart from religion (talk about dreadful..)
Basically, WE DON'T CLICK. There's simply no connection between us.
GAH, you're someone nice, friendly and honest! A gentleman!
Me? I would be making the chinese proverb of "sticking a pretty flower in faeces" true to every word!
We can't even hold a phone conversation properly, what makes you think going out makes things any better?
Weirdly, when going out.. I like it quiet and for the other side to be decisive. Might be laziness on my part, but you're the guy. I don't want to be domineering and bossy all over again (you'll get my drift).
In any case, I just hope the only way of telling you to stay out of my way isn't going to be in your face. =/
So much for being more feminine..
Good going, Gloria. -_-

I never really knew how touching Aya Matsuura's "Watarasebashi" lyrics were until I finally got to listen to it properly. ;_;Was pretty fun, going out again. XD
I was late as usual (boo ;_;), but lucky thing I was this time - Kaili, Irene and Kwokway didn't arrive until pretty much an hour or two after we arrived, haha. The icecream was awesome though. And I was so tempted to buy.. cookies.. so I just ended up stealing some from Junhao and Xinhan. XD
After the meal though, we played pool at cine!
Was okay, it wasn't full of the slutty lians but there still were pink-shirt guys.. but I lost to min and yin because I slammed my white ball in with the last ball! ;_; It wasn't supposed to happen; I just suck at pool lol.
I need to stop staring at JC guys. *stresses on them being purely 'out of my league'.*
I don't know, I just see most of them and like instantly I'm in awe. Maybe it's admiration, not that kind of "like-like" shizwiz.
Example: John and Denys. I am not surprised they're Victorians (shit, not again..). Sigh, their English alone is purely beyond my comprehension (no pun intended). Feck, I'd give my all to have a boyfriend with that kind of adorable humour. ;_;
Mmmm, I should link them up as one of the kinda "good reads" kinda stuff. Like what others do with ever-popular Xiaxue (or however it's spelt) and other whatchumacallit thingamajigs.
Yes, and I'll make them the nicest banner. <3

Yay. Happy Valentine's Day to everyone! =D Gonna go out with Rona, Sean and Junhao later.
That aside, I went to watch that Jack Neo movie yesterday. Yes yes, go on and "ew", "ow" and/or "aw" away. No, if I given a choice I would've watched Jet Li's 'Fearless' or at least 'Fun with Dick and Jane'. Anyway. On the MRT on our way home, it was pretty packed so there was nowhere to sit (much to my mum's dismay), so I held one of them shiny poles while my mum just found something else to cling on.
Then this inconsiderate fuck leans on the pole, crushing my hand along with another girl's, pissing us off. And for the record, no one would regret more than getting me pissed off.
So we took our hands off, she found another pole, and glared at him for a while. Well, I would've done that, but only when I'm don't want to kick his ass halfway around the world.
I took an alternative. I grabbed the pole again, this time slamming my knuckles on his shoulder. He moved out a bit, but he was still not giving up the pole.
So I took the opportunity and went lower, so that if he leant back, my knuckles would be in his shoulder blades.
My plan worked.
He was still not giving up, so I pressed my knuckles deeper into his back, knowing it'll hurt if he kept trying that way.
He finally got off the pole, but his lower part of the back along with his ass, was still there.
Yes, I'll give you all something to smile about knowing I'm this evil. I stretched out my fingers like how Sabbath would retract her claws, and poked them deep into his back.
Pity though, I would've played along some more if it wasn't his stop already.. Such a fool to try thinking a short little girl wouldn't dare to take action. However, there were about 5 people staring at what I just did, along with my putting the Capital-L-on-forehead-yelling-"leewzar" finale. Some just kept staring at me like I had just killed somebody. Freaky, if you ask me.

A typical sunday..Church, then lunch with my family.
Yes, I was asked countless questions by my godparents, cousins and grandparents. At least mum told them beforehand (to my sheer dismay) how my results were, and I almost felt like crying because they didn't even look disappointed, and were just telling me it's alright because I could still go on.
For the first time, my grandfather actually felt like one.
Usually, he was just passive and let my grandmother do all the talking. Maybe he dotes me more than my sister, but hey, I appreciated it.
They said that if I do get into BioMed, I'd be getting a crumpler bag along with my very own laptop. Chyeah, totally pays to have relatives working for HP and a sister who has friends working in crumpler bag shops. (Bryan, should've asked me earlier before buying your bag lol ;_;)
Never thought I'd say this, but I have the greatest family and friends in the world.
No amount of thanks can express my gratitude, but I guess I do take them for granted most of the time, not realising that they're the one thing in this world that matters so much.

I'm not getting into SP's, because it'll just be a mad competition on who has the stronger language. And I'm not the sort who has a good grasp of the language, so I guess I'll have to give up Photojournalism.
BioMedical it is, then.

They're still not giving up on the tormenting questions.Imagine how much worse it'll be when they ask you how it went on the day itself.
I mean, how hard can it be to understand that it's so infuriating when someone asks that question? All of my friends that ask are older than/of the same age as me, hence probably have gone through the same ordeal as well. If you liked being asked so much (lousy attention whores), I wouldn't mind.. but I'm sure you felt just as pissed when people just go on and on about it. If you like asking so much just because it's the latest topic "everyone" is talking about (hokkien = "jia pa bo mi kia zho"), I don't really care if you're concerned or asking me out of sheer mockery then. And there are always better topics to talk about than this; I mock thee for your lack of creativity in holding a conversation! >_>
Like the results coming out tomorrow was so big a hoohah you just have that dying urge to just blabber away not realising it's so damn irritating.
And don't give me that "you won't feel stressed if you did study" bullcrap, being confident and getting low marks unexpectedly would just spiral your self-esteem/ego down to nothingness. Although that might be good for some people, it's simply best to stay humble, isn't it?
Bah, I give up.
I'll just say that on that day I won't leave my phone off because it's solely right I inform my family and relatives. However, should any other person I feel that doesn't need to hear my results call me, I'll just press the pretty red button.
Oh and to make my day worse, I just read someone's blog. It's so "sweet" it made me feel like throwing up. Honestly, get something that won't render your readers/friends into fits of spasms or photoepilepsy, much less throw up on their computer table..

Yay! New template, new layout, and new colours!!Spent the whole of yesterday and this morning just trying to fit the bits and pieces together.
Yes Noel, this also means my photoshop is back up! o/
And I'm done with your skin, I'm just afraid you might not like it because it's well, done by me haha! I keed, I keed. It's nice, but I think it's too simple. But it's green though (I died making this ;< I can't believe people like such an ugly colour. It's so algae/moss-ish ffs!)
Right. Before anyone kills me, I did have some help with the stock in my layout from Amy Brown art, the famous artist who draws faeries in the most astounding fashion, and the rest were just random things I grabbed from my sister and google.com.
Now, I have a feeewww more tweaks to make.
I will be making those 100x35 (I think those are the dimensions.. I haven't done those for a loonnngg time) banners for my links. And yes, that means you, too, can have your very own wittle banner made by me! If you happen to have one stashed away somewhere in your computer and would like me to put it here, just tell me. If not, I'll just make one.
Here's the fun part:
You can tell me how you want it, but since I'm not a robot, I cannot make insane requests. Roughly maybe the colour, stock inside, and words and such. I'll definitely include your name, so I can still put my links in alphabetical order.
I'll be going about this soon since I'm totally beat from doing this new layout.
Till then, feel free to leave your messages or just find me on MSN if you have my e-mail (which most of you happen to have anyway).
PS: Should there be any major flaws (no, the -whole thing- is not considered a flaw, thank you) or cranky places you see an eyesore, don't hesistate to tell me! Apart from the blog ends and "art/illustration" part (<- I got lazy), help me find my errors please! XD
PPS: This layout fits both IE and Firefox, but it looks better on IE so don't complain, Aliman! >:0

Went to Uncle Wong's house today..It was really nice, considering the block he lives in has 40 storeys. We went up to the highest and saw like, almost all of Singapore. I wish I had my camera then, but in the afternoon everything looks so.. ugly. After sunset it'll probably start looking awesome.
He had a piano in his apartment too.. And I was asking my parents why they never let me have one even though I was always intrigued and the only thing close to one was a keyboard which I cease to possess any longer.
I mean hey, I'm sure every one of you have had something you probably felt drawn to as a kid. For me, it was musical instruments. Almost any sound-producing whatchumacallit would have my attention and I would be occupied with it the whole day until maybe my dad or mum had to take it away from me just to ask me to eat or bathe. Or something like that.
You're probably wondering why they didn't want to help me hire a piano or another music teacher. When my sis was a kid too, my parents did that for her. But she never really appreciated that kinda stuff along with animal conservation and art. We're like the North and South poles - totally opposite. She liked dolls, I liked being a mess. She liked music, but I preferred creating them (well back then it was in the form of noise, but whatever floated my boat dude!). So they kinda gave up on me and music (and gave me ballet/swimming/gymnastic lessons instead wtf..) thinking I would probably end up like her. Too bad they were so wrong! ;_; I fecking loved music and always will! Just that I don't even think I have the knowledge to differenciate between a glockenspiel and a marimba.
... Okay maybe I do know the difference (I do, alright! I was a marimbist in primary school!), but cheebongs, I still want piano lessons!
Maybe someday I'll just get my childhood wish of being able to play a duet on the piano like Uncle Wong's kids. Just a lot.. more.. difficult-ish.
LOL who'm I kidding!
Whoever has the patience to teach this old mule might either be dead from sheer frustration, or be Tom Chan II.
HAHA! XD

Went to bai nian again!This time we went to Mrs Hoe's and Mr Chan's house. Well, there was Shen laoshi's one too, but I couldn't run away from going to Vince's house since my mum insisted.
In any case, it was fun seeing Ketchup, Mrs Hoe's Jack Russell, and Zeus, Mr Chan's.. er, dog. :x It's the year of the Canis lupus familiaris! So I gave a pat to both dogs just for luck.
Pity, I never got any while at Vince's house. Mum lost 20 bucks, and I lost a bit before gaining back around 6 dollars of profit. Oh wells, no pain no gain. XD
But at this rate, I don't think I can ever get my Elle wallet at this rate of ez-link adult busfare ;_; THIS SUCKS DONKEY BALLS! GRAWH, I'm only 18!
I don't want to be an adult just yeettttttt~

Went to NP's Open House thingy today with Min and Junhao.Was um, kinda the same.. just that we got to see more of the Film and Media school. However, one question is still stuck on my mind: WHY ON EARTH DID WE HAVE TO TOUR WITH THOSE KIDS.
1) They dress like kids.
2) They talk like kids.
3) They laugh like kids.
4) They act like kids.
Bottom line: THEY ARE KIDS.
Some malay girl comes up and totally does it OTT, with some lacylacy ribbon on her head, makeup, some top and a skirt, and did I mention her earrings matched her top? It looked so sweet, it made me want to strangle and then stab her in the head. THRICE. Or maybe four hundred and seventy nine, but three's fine. :D
I named her drama queen throughout the tour. Was so obvious that the three of us hated her groupies and her, we were practically begging for another batch.
After all that hoohah and sending Junhao back, min and I went back to Bukit Panjang Plaza and had Delifrance for dinner!
Tarts are still that awesome, and the waffles are to die for. ;_; I'm going back there again!
In other news..
Koike Teppei is pure LOVE! (Yes, if you find him familiar, you'd probably have seen these few J-doramas like Okusen 2, Dragonzakura, and Water Boys 2.) He's everything; smiles, voice, talent, eyes, hair.. KYA, yasashii too ;_;! Think I'm wrong? This picture says it all. <3
And for kicks, if you want to watch him singing and melt yourself to death, go ahead and click this link and this link.
:D I swear his friend looks like a Japanese mixed with angmoh..
I shall not be held responsible for any deaths associated with excessive infatuation or screaming.

Fourth day, no gain.Reformatted my computer though, I just have to hope I can fix this Photoshop CS CD to make Noel and myself new skins. ;_;
Better go, it's getting late.
We're going to NP tomorrow, so NANAH I WANT A TOUR YAR. Eh leh, other people busy still can like that. No lar =D I'll just pop in and hopefully be able to find Cheryl and Stef. Don't remember if the latter is in NP, but whatever. So many of my primary school friends are in Mass comm; it'd be a disgrace if I didn't get in.
Results coming a bit too soon don't you think.. Of all years they start this year as marking early? How sweet.
I have to remind myself to bring a few boxes of tissues - I don't think one will suffice, when it's the O's we're talking about haha. I'll try my best this year not to cry lah, so long as they don't pull some impossibly stupid stunt again like having 5 distinctions LOL.
Oh well, good night!
