I wrote this long entry yesterday but the laptop decided to hang just as I wanted to post it. So, damn…it’s gone. I’m not about to retype it though. It’s my last day in Champaign, Illinois. Will be doing my last minute shopping of candy and more clothes? Haha. Then tonight will be grand squeezing time. Squeeze everything into my…
the non-academic bit
And here comes the not-so-academic part… With all the school visiting more or less done, I can spend more time on other things like sightseeing and shopping. Not to mention nursing that nasty cough of mine. Yea, caught the flu bug from my cousin, Ethan. I got a good deal from the clothes I bought. Basically coz the shops are…
the academic bit
Almost 3 weeks in the States. Not that I don’t have internet connection but I have been rather lazy to blog. Haha…there are just too many things to do. Daytime, aunty wants to take me around to schools and stuff. So most of the time I’m left with night time. Of which, I’m trying to divide my time to use the…
still alive
Using the computer in the student lounge in the university. Man Ling and I are waiting for a friend so we can go for lunch together. It feels great to have a fellow Singaporean to talk to. I think I am her company in this foreign land. Hahaha…I make it sound like we’re stuck in some hellhole. No, we’re fine.…
i am alive
Yes, I’m alive and well in the States. My uncle has kindly lent me one of their many laptops to work on, check my email etc. The laptops must be really cheap here coz no way is someone going to have at least 5 laptops around their house back in Singapore. Even getting 2 desktops is going to make your…
soon leaving again
Have this nagging feeling that I won’t have time to blog about my Japan trip. I’m left with tomorrow only. After which, I’ll be leaving for the States. Away for one month. Gawd, I feel like I’m floating around again. Disoriented. Things are moving too fast and I’m just too slow.
back from the land of oolong cha
Just got home not long. Looking through all my mail, emails etc. So many things to do! Yikes!
hello from Japan
Am now in the land of vending machines and oolong cha. HAHAHA…it is Japan lahz. Using the computer at the place I am staying. And damn I hate the keyboard. So far so good…saw some nice shoes at Harajuku. Not sure if I want to get them but they are relatively cheap. 3900 yen. Saw a lot of cosplayers too. Oh…
getting ready to go go go
It’s a mad rush around the house everytime we’re going off on a holiday. Grabbing this and that, stuffing them into the bags. Lots of frowning, getting frustrated that nothing must be left out. And here I am trying my best to keep calm and not get influenced by the other members of the family. I guess getting annoyed and…
getting emotional at the movies
Watched “Helen The Baby Fox” this afternoon with Sis. It’s a Japanese movie about a boy and his special bond with a blind and deaf baby fox. I’m not going to spill the contents of the movie. If you wanna know more, go watch it. It’s definitely worth it…especially if you’re an animal lover. I expected myself to tear as…
