Now that my papers are over and done with, I'm going home...In another 3 days.
I.am.so.tired. I havent' been sleeping for more than 4 hours a day since last Thurs just cramming for exams. I hate procrastinating but it's so addictive it has become my way of life :D I just loooveee torturing myself like that. I shudder to think of the results. But I'll think about it in another month.
I love Chris Daughtry's song, "Home".
I'm staring out into the night,
Trying to hide the pain.
I'm going to the place where love
And feeling good don't ever cost a thing.
And the pain you feel's a different kind of pain.
Well I'm going home,
Back to the place where I belong,
And where your love has always been enough for me.
I'm not running from.
No, I think you got me all wrong.
I don't regret this life I chose for me.
But these places and these faces are getting old,
So I'm going home.
Well I'm going home.
The miles are getting longer, it seems,
The closer I get to you.
I've not always been the best man or friend for you.
But your love remains true.
And I don't know why.
You always seem to give me another try.
So I'm going home,
Back to the place where I belong,
And where your love has always been enough for me.
I'm not running from.
No, I think you got me all wrong.
I don't regret this life I chose for me.
But these places and these faces are getting old
Be careful what you wish for,
'Cause you just might get it all.
You just might get it all,
And then some you don't want.
Be careful what you wish for,
'Cause you just might get it all.
You just might get it all, yeah.
Oh, well I'm going home,
Back to the place where I belong,
And where your love has always been enough for me.
I'm not running from.
No, I think you got me all wrong.
I don't regret this life I chose for me.
But these places and these faces are getting old.
I said these places and these faces are getting old,
So I'm going home.
I'm going home.
I am missing Josh like crazy. It's been 22 days since I last saw him and shook his hand. :( I am having majorly bad post-concert depression. Iwannahughim. Boooo...
Everything he does is cute.
He looks adorable just drinking water *lol*
Byebye Aus! It's time to go home.

It's through these tough times that I learn to appreciate every single person in my life.
2 more papers to go and I'm falling. I don't have stamina for 4 papers in 5 days. I'm old. I'm tired.
I'm comforted by the fact that people around me are studying - well some at least. I look out of my window and see my hostel mates mugging in the common room. And Cheryl is up in the next building being little Confucius (err how to spell) *lol*.
I am feeling crazy homesick at the moment. All I want to do is to hug my mommy - I miss her like crazy. Can't wait to go home - 4 more days wooohoo!!!
Nothing beats the comfort of being in your mommy's arms cuz then you know everything will be ok and she will protect you. All your fears melt away and you can count on her to always be there for you. My mom is perfect in my eyes. And the best thing is - no matter what you do wrong and no matter how much of a failer you are or how bad a person you are, your parents will always forgive and love you unconditionally. And I'm so grateful for that. This is something I learnt whilst growing up and moving overseas. God has blessed me with such a wonderful family. :)
I miss barging into my brother's room and sitting on his bed and refusing to leave until he engages in a proper conversation with me. The last time I remember I had a proper conversation with him was during Chinese New Year when he was helping me peel apples for apple crumble. I miss it. My brother is such an incredibly intelligent and well-rounded young man that I find talking to him sometimes is intimidating - but I learn a lot from him - be it about music or sports or just general knowledge.
Same goes for my sister. Despite the 6 year age gap (which is not obvious by the way), she can tell me anything from dresses to the French Revolution and we can talk about anything under the sun. I love sharing a room with her (despite her mess) cuz she's hilariously funny.
My Pa is one of the funniest people I know. He always "zui ying xin ruan" = direct translation: mouth hard, heart soft. He will scold you and everything but he will still do anything for you as long as you ask. My dad is also one of the most intelligent people I know.
My 4th aunt who is sick at the moment - I'm missing her lots too. She's also one of the most intelligent people I know and always perfect in my eyes. She's been a 2nd mom to me since I was born & dotes on me like a daughter. She gives all of herself to her job and family and asks for nothing in return. She's always looking out for my interests and giving me advice. For that, I am grateful :)
Sometimes I wonder how in the world did I manage to spend 6 years away from home. Other times I reckon being away from home for awhile is a good idea. *sigh* You can never please me.
These times I count on God to get me through. He's always been there for me even when I grew apart from Him - even when I forgot about Him, He didn't forget about me. Whenever I need Him, He will be there to shelter me. I can feel that He exists because amdist the craziness I feel calm. And I'm so grateful for that. :)
I can never discount the fact that my friends have always been a great source of support and strength for me, despite the fact that sometimes it may not be reciprocal. They feed me when I'm hungry (Thil, Sangee), give me lifts everywhere when I don't own a car (Amy, Thil, Terry, Syl), listen to me when I complain (like everyone LOL), give me great advice (Juice, Amy, Yuanny, Peg), help me out in my school work (Bryan, Flora, Karen), fixing my computer (Terry), stay up late and burn the midnight oil with me (Cheryl) and have always looked out for my interests (everyone). So I want to say thanks so much you guys :) I'm so grateful for you.
So what did I do to deserve all these amazing people in my life? I have no clue.
Yin is counting her blessings. And feeling so loved.
My cup is not half empty. Nor is it half full. My cup runneth over~the Bible, Psalms 23:5
When I feel like giving up, I remember what Josh said in his interview once:
Because I know that life is a journey I must accept and that pain and confusion are temporary. I know that if I follow my heart, it will lead me where I belong. ~Josh :)
And I know that I will make it through the rain, just like he did once :)

I woke up feeling awful this morning. That's when I knew I needed Josh-therapy.
Now everytime I listen to the song "In her Eyes", I get brought back to the 2 nights at the Hamer Hall when Josh walked through the audience whilst singing this song and I molested his arm LOL.
As he sings the lyrics: "I am not a hero...I am not an angel...I am just a man...Man who's trying to love her...Unlike any other...In her eyes I am...", I think, "My gawd, he is MY hero, My angel"
He makes me a better person :)
How can anyone not love this face?
As a side-note, I just found out that "Noel" means "Christmas" in French. Hmmm.
Now I'm all Joshed-up, back to studying :)

Today's paper was ok - 2 hours, 90%. I feel cheated. The unit with the most number of contact hours and the most material had the shortest paper. I'm just glad it's over.
I'm so grateful that my timetable isn't any worse than it already is.
And now that we are already pressed for time, the bloody daylight saving is going to rob us of yet another precious hour. DAMNIT. As if we don't already have enough to deal with.
Today's first paper was for you Lord :)
Monday's Media is for you, Josh :)
Tuesday's Property is for you, Ma :)
Wednesday's Trusts is for ME :P
Can't wait for it all to end...But then...my 5 years will have come to an end.
I'll miss you, Monash.

Yesterday I experienced a whole range of emotions.
Frustration, sadness, anger, calm, happy, annoyed, silly etc. all in a day.
Mood swings really getting me down.
Nothing's really going well at the moment. I wonder how I'm going to pull through this. It would be a miracle.
I'm cracking under pressure - this is when Michy says, "noooooo...you're not an egg!!" LOL
Every time exams come around I wish I had started studying earlier.
I want to bash the person who invented exams - even though he's long dead & gone.
.
.
.
15 years and I still haven't learnt anything.
.
.
.
At the end of my degree, I'm still torn between 2 places. Everyone has their own opinion of what I should do, where I should go. Instead of forcing your opinions on me, anyone ever asked me what I want?
.
.
.
No matter how crummy my day is, everything gets better when I think of you :)
.
.
.
I miss home.

Pay it forward with Josh this Christmas
A couple of weeks ago I posted a message on the Josh Groban forum to ask if anyone from the States would help me buy the Noel CD+DVD from Target and send it to Australia for me. Australia only stocks the CD version, from what I have seen & enquired so far.
Anita was the first to respond - she offered to send me the CD but wasn't sure about how much the postage would cost. I told her that I didn't mind the cost because I was so grateful that someone would take the time to send me the CD.
She got back to me and these were her exact words: "You know, I've actually already purchased your copy of the cd/dvd. (just to make sure they still had them) This album has kinda gotten to me, so lets just let the money thing go.(the international stuff confuses me) Just do me a favor and "pay it forward". This Christmas do a little something for someone else or buy some kewl Josh stuff from the Holiday Grobanite Charity Auction. We can just let the Album start a wave of kindness to others."
I just received the CD in the mail today. IT IS AWESOME. I've watched the DVD and there are some of the cutest clips in there ever. :) The tracks are amazing: I love "Little Drummer Boy" - It sent chills down my spine because it is so beautiful. "I'll be home for Christmas" has sound clips of people sending their love from Iraq. What an amazing idea. Of course the song "Thankful" is beautiful as well. People like Brian McKnight, Faith Hill also leant their voices to this album. This is SUCH a warm album with so much love in it. It is the most amazing Christmas gift ever.
I am so touched that someone whom I have never even met/spoken to before would do something so nice for me. Josh inspires love :)
Thank you so much Anita and all the Grobanites!!
Thanks Josh for yet another amazing one. Keep them coming!! :)

g The cutest, funniest, sweetest video of Josh Groban ever....If you've never watched a Josh video - this is the only one you'll ever have to watch
"Thankful" - from his Christmas album Noel
What a beautiful song - there's so much to be thankful for
Somedays, we forget to look around us,
Somedays, we can't see the joy that surrounds us,
so caught up inside ourselves,
we take when we should give,
so for tonight we pray for,
what we know can be,
and on this day we hope for,
what we still can't see,
It's up to us, to be the change,
and even though we all can still do more,
there's so much to be thankful for
look beyond ourselves,there's so much sorrow,
it's way to late to say,
I'll cry tomorrow
each of us must find our truth,
it's so long overdue,
what we know can be,
and everyday, we hope for,
what we still can't see,
it's up to us, to be the change,
and even though we all can still do more,
there's so much to be thankful for,
even with our differences,
there is a place were all connected,
each of us can find each others light,
So for tonight, we pray for
what we know can be,
and on this day, we hope for,
what we still can't see,
it's up to us, to be the change,
and even though this world needs so much more
there's so much to be thankful for.

I had a BAD craving for Goober Grape peanut butter & jelly since 2 days ago. And am still having it.
They don't sell it in Aus I think. Been looking every where I get the chance.
I used to have it with bread when I was a kid and sometimes still do when I am home.
It's awesome - very sweet but it's yummy - best is when you just eat it from the jar like Nutella.
I saw it on Ebay for $25.50 a jar ok!!!
Even I'm not that desperate.

If I ever get married, this is the song I want to be played at my wedding:
When you say you love me (Josh Groban)
Like the sound of silence calling,
I hear your voice and suddenly I'm falling,
lost in a dream
Like the echoes of our souls are meeting,
You say those words and my heart stops beating.
I wonder what it means.
What could it be that comes over me?
At times I can't move.
At times I can hardly breathe
When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
For a moment, there's no one else alive
You're the one I've always thought of.
I don't know how, but I feel sheltered in your love.
You're where I belong.
And when you're with me if I close my eyes,
There are times I swear I feel like I can fly
For a moment in time.
Somewhere between the Heavens and Earth
And frozen in time, Oh when you say those words.
When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
For a moment, there's no one else alive
And this journey that we're on.
How far we've come and I celebrate every moment.
And when you say you love me,
That's all you have to say.
I'll always feel this way.
When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
In that moment, I know why I'm alive
When you say you love me.
When you say you love me.
Do you know how I love you?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I realise how fate can screw with you sometimes. I was deciding between going either to Josh's concert on the 9th or 10th of Melbourne that day. I wanted to go to the one on the 10th because that was his last show in Melbourne, but then I couldn't get seats so I went for the one on the 9th instead. I got to see him on the 9th - then I was tempted to go back on the 10th just to get his autograph, but I decided that it would be overkill so I didn't go - and later I heard from fans that he didn't meet to give autographs after the show on the 10th. So if I hadn't gone for the show on the 9th I would have never gotten to meet him at all/give him my goodie bag/speak to him/gotten his autograph. And that scares me. God works in wondrous ways.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I just discovered a few of Josh's new songs: He sings the most beautiful "O Holy Night" that I've ever heard - he also has sung the best "Star Spangled Banner" I've ever heard - I can't believe I'm listening to the American National Anthem just to hear Josh sing. He sings it with so much pride & passion too - I'm not even American & even I feel patriotic!!! And he sang a song with Babara Streisand called "All I know of love" which is amazing too. *sigh* I miss him already.
Have a great weekend everyone!! *waves*

Before I get into the whole I-LOVE-JOSH thing, lemme tell you guys what happened to me on my way to the city. Thil and Sang dropped me off at the train station so I caught the train in. I was sitting next to a little old lady. The train ride took a while so I was listening to my Ipod - I blasted it for a "surround-sound effect" and closed my eyes so that my ears would get the full experience of the music. Suddenly I feel a tap on my shoulder. I open my eyes to see the little old lady wanting to speak to me.
Little old lady: Excuse me, may I know what you are listening to? You look like you are in heaven.
Me: *smiles* It's Josh Groban, you heard of him?
Little old lady: *shakes her head* May I have a listen?
Me: Sure! - I proceed to plug one side of my earphones into her ear, making sure I turn the volume down low in case I blast her ear drums out.
We sit in silence for 3 minutes whilst "You are Loved" is played. We must have been a sight - Chinese girl in twenties sharing an earpiece with little old Aussie lady.
When the song ends, I look at her and see her eyes filled with tears.
Thank you, she says. That was lovely. I must ask my daughter to get me his CD :)
Grobanitis - It's infectious.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now for the I-LOVE-JOSH-GROBAN bit.
I.LOVE.JOSH.GROBAN.
Tonight was AWESOME. If I thought that the first night was good, tonight was DA BOMB. Josh seemed more comfortable about performing and he opened up to the audience more in this concert.
He mixed up the songs a little bit so we didn't get the normal line-up as expected - which was good cuz otherwise it would be predictable. Some of the jokes he told were the same as the last concert, but this time he was more relaxed and said some new, funny stuff.
At one point he started singing random songs and playing random tunes like Rihanna's "Umbrella" song - OMG I hate that song but sung by Josh - that's like a whole OTHER thing...he went, "Under my umbrella...ella...ella..eh...eh...ehh" LOL - he should have recorded it instead!! (on the other hand it's such a bimbotic song)
There was a woman in the concert who had followed him all over Australia - from Melbourne to Sydney to Brisbane and back to Melbourne again. I recognised her from the Josh forum discussion pages because someone took a picture of her - apparently during the concert she held out a banner which said "Swap hug and Jack Daniels for drumsticks please?"!! Josh read it out and said, "Prove it". And she pulled out a bottle of Jack Daniels from her purse so Josh ran and gave her his drumsticks (NOT the chicken kind, the real drum set drumsticks) and a hug.
Now THAT'S dedication. I spoke to her before the concert and she said all his concerts have been amazing.
When the song "In her eyes" started playing, the 2 girls who sat next to me, and myself, knew immediately that Josh would be mingling in the crowd as he always does, so we were looking frantically everywhere for him. Unfortunately he appeared at the top level and started shaking people's hands, taking pictures etc. When he FINALLY came down, I was STOKED that he chose to walk into the row just in front of me. How lucky was that?? I stood up, reached out and MOLESTED his arm. Yes people. I.touched.his.arm. I think I could have died a happy person there and then. My heart nearly popped out!!!
I was really glad I got to sit next to people who were screaming and yelling and clapping and bopping to songs like me - some of the crowd were too quiet and too still. Perhaps mesmerized by Josh's voice. Anywho, the crowd was awesome - some guy yelled out, "WE LOVE YOU JOSH!!!" And Josh was like, "oohhh thank you very much sir!! Takes a lot of courage for a guy to do that!!" LOL...
It all went by so quickly again...and in 2 hours it was over...again. I rushed like mad to get out of the concert area so that I could go to the stage door to meet him. When I got there, there were only around 5 or 6 people waiting, so I stood behind them. Josh's bodyguard came out and said, "ok people, please stand in a line". He proceeded to put barricades around us. He was funny (I think his name is Darren) - he told us his 4 big rules:
1. One autograph per person
2. No sticking pins into Josh (apparently people pin badges on him and stuff)
3. No hugs or kisses (at this point, the crowd went AWWWWWWWWWWW)
4. No posed photographs - we can take all the pictures we want but not with him *dang*
This is what happened: I actually brought a bag of goodies to give him but I wasn't sure WHEN I should give it to him - because people give him bags whilst he's on stage all the time but I wasn't sure I wanted to do that because:
1. I was sitting right in the middle of the row, and to get out would mean stepping on everyone's toes
2. I wasn't sure if the bags would end up with him because he puts it near the piano but when he leaves someone else takes it - I wanted to give it to him in person cuz I wanted to make sure he got it
SO I took a risk and waited for him to sign my CD before I passed him the bag.
When it was my turn to get my autograph, I said, "Hi Josh! Thanks for the awesome concert!!"
Josh said, "Thank you for coming!!"
He proceeded to sign my CD - I then passed him my goodie bag and said, "This is for you"
Josh said, "This is for MEEEE???"
He looked at it - because I stuck "Josh's goodies" on the bag in pink cut out paper
He asks, "And you did all the cutting and sticking of paper yourself??"
I said, "Yes" - At this point the crowd goes AWWWWWWWWWWWW - lol gotta love those Grobanites
He opens the bag and says...."Are those....JUGGLING BALLS???"
I said, "Yes, I know you love to juggle" - I knew because I've seen him doing it in interviews
He looks at me with big eyes and says, "Thank you very much!! That's so nice of you"...or something to that extent I CAN'T REMEMBER!!!
Then he said, "Thank you, I'm not leaving my room tonight!!!"
Then I held out my hand and he took it and shook it and I said, "THANKS" and he said "Thanks again for coming".
I.AM.NOT.WASHING.MY.RIGHT.HAND.
All this whilst I had the camera and the lights shining into my face too!!!
Josh signing autographs for people next to me
Besides the juggle balls, I also put in some lollipops, a squeezy chew toy ball for his doggy, Sweeney, a "Mr.Silly" book (you know those Mr.Men and Little Miss series) - I chose it cuz Josh is silly sometimes - A small bubblegum machine - because listening to his CD made me feel like I was taking candy from a bubblegum machine - you never know what flavour you are going to get - 2 packets of Tim Tams with "Hide me" and "Want me" on it - a scrapbook, which I decorated and wrote in the first few pages a letter to him, and told him that it was for him to fill the pages - he can draw whatever he likes and can compose his lyrics in it - so I gave him a pack of crayons as well, because I've seen him draw and colour with kids. I think that was about it...can't remember anything else - Josh is like a kid sometimes so he loves kiddy things. He's so adorable :)
And SO this concludes my first meeting with Josh. I'm in love. Josh is sOo uber amazing - he's like your regular guy next door. You expect him to be this megastar because of his phenomenal success worldwide but he has NO AIRS whatsoever - he stopped at each and every person to say thanks for coming. He is absolutely the sweetest person alive.
And the Grobanites were soooo well-behaved - there was no pushing, no shoving, no screaming - it was all very orderly and everyone followed the rules.
He is such a sweetie - and his band members are awesome - Tariquh (guitarist) came out to give autographs and say hi, and then Tim (acoustics) gave someone a hug - Lucia (violinist) was on the phone, and Craig (drummer) was really quiet!!!!
His new Christmas CD comes out today!! It's titled "NOEL". I can't wait to lay my hands on it!!
I don't think I will be able to sleep tonight.
I want to thank Sang & Thil again for coming all the way to the city to pick me up - I REALLY appreciate it - and sorry for the crazy behaviour - I was walking in the middle of the road and singing out loud because I was tooo frigging happy LOL.
*sigh* I'm in love. So THIS is what it feels like to be in love. :)

I know that I'm thinking a bit too much of Josh when (unconsciously) every other word I type is "Josh" e.g. Corporations law: Indoor management rule: Need to
awww what a cutie-pie
I am going to see Josh again tomorrow *squeals so loud your eardrums burst*.
Reality hasn't sunk in yet.
I must thank my lovely friends for insisting that they drive me there and back (especially Thil) - the things they do for me & my obsessions.
It isn't easy being my friend.
Thanks for sticking around.

Okies I have FINALLY gotten the Socceroos pictures so I am FINALLY going to blog about it.
So that day Syl and I went to watch Australia vs. Argentina right - As you all know by now, Argentina won by 1 to nil. I expected that Argentina would win but I thought they would win by a larger gap. Anyways, on our way to the MCG (Melbourne Cricket Ground - where the 2006 Commonwealth games were held), Syl and I were already surrounded by supporters wearing green and yellow (for Aus) and blue and white (for Argentina). I desperately wanted to wear green & yellow but I couldn't because we got our tickets pretty last minute so the Aussie supporter side was sold-out, leaving only the Argentina supporters side available. Moreover, the seats were directly in front of the goal net and quite close to the pitch (and were cheap too!), so we decided to sit there (I felt like a traitor).
Anyways Argentina is supposed to be ranked number 2 in the world (behind Brazil) so they are really very good. They are fast, agile and cunning so watching them was pretty exciting. The MCG can seat about 100,000 people - attendance for that day was around 72,000 so that was quite huge already, considering the small part soccer plays in the sporting lives of Aussies. However, the popularity of the sport has been growing ever since Aus made it to the World Cup.
When we got there, we were seated with the Argentinian supporters all decked out in their Argentinian gear - people were wearing large blue and white jester hats (which Syl and I were quite tempted to get) and jerseys with "Maradona" and "Messi" printed on the back. The face paint going on was way cool. Everyone was just there for Lionel Messi anyway - he got the most cheers and the most camera focus. Every time he got the ball, the crowd went mad. He's like a devil on fire when he gets the ball - he and Carlos Tevez were the attacking pair who were the life of the team.
The Argentina crowd went mad man! There was an old man beating the large drum so hard and they were all singing! The atmosphere was fantastic! Syl and I started yelling with them in unison, "Ar-Gen-Ti-Na! Ar-Gen-Ti-Na"!! *screw loyalty lol*!!! Then they started singing in Spanish and cheering and waving their scarfs etc. I love it when everytime the players start moving nearer to the goalpost and the possibility of a goal gets higher, the people will all stand up and start screaming, "SHOOT!!! SHOOOOOOOOT!!!". It's awesome. Of course when Argentina scored a goal everyone went mad. I have no idea what one Argentina supporter did but we saw him being dragged away by the police with everyone just staring. Part of me wished there was a streaker *lol*. After that people just kept yelling, "UNO MAS!!!" which means "ONE MORE"!!
The thing about the MCG is that it is not a proper soccer pitch. It's a cricket ground. So the field was the wrong size & shape. Must be weird playing there when the players are used to a long rectangle field.
Anyways I saw LUCAS NEIL!!! WOOOOWOOOOOOT!!! It was hard to take a picture (as you can tell, the pictures are all blur) because the stands were some distance away from the pitch.
The Aussie team did a lap of victory around the pitch after the game ended to thank the fans for coming to support them. They always do that, so I asked Syl to wait with me until they finished their round (thanks!).
In conclusion, the match was exciting, the Argentinian goalkeeper was fantastic (Roberto Abbondanzieri) and we went home cheering for both teams because although Aus lost, it was a great effort on their part, especially without their key players.

A song that I didn't like at first, then grew on me because Ben sang it so well on Aussie Idol. As I listened to it again and again, I realised that this is such an honest song filled with so much raw emotion - I feel it cuz it's so real and I can feel the hurt & pain as Imogen Heap sings it.
Now I can't get it outta my brain. Help!!
"Hide & seek" (Imogen Heap)
Where are we?
What the hell is going on?
The dust has only just begun to fall,
Crop circles in the carpet, sinking, feeling.
Spin me round again and rub my eyes.
This can't be happening.
When busy streets a mess with people would stop to hold their heads heavy.
Hide and seek.
Trains and sewing machines.
All those years they were here first.
Oily marks appear on walls
Where pleasure moments hung before.
The takeover, the sweeping insensitivity of this still life.
Hide and seek.
Trains and sewing machines. (Oh, you won't catch me around here)
Blood and tears,
They were here first.
Mmm, what you say?
Mm, that you only meant well? Well, of course you did.
Mmm, what you say?
Mm, that it's all for the best? Of course it is.
Mmm, what you say?
Mm, that it’s just what we need? And you decided this.
Mmm what you say?
Mmm what did she say?
Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth.
Mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut-outs.
Speak no feeling, no I dont believe you.
You don't care a bit.
You don't care a bit.
Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth.
Mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut-outs.
Speak no feeling, no I don't believe you. You don't care a bit. You don't care a bit.
You don't care a bit.
You don't care a bit.
You don't care a bit.
You don't care a bit.
You don't care a bit.
