My left eye hurts like crap. It feels sore and it’s damn itchy, but it’s not red. Shat, I seriously hope it’s not an infection. The last thing i would want now is to have an eye infection. I need to face the world.

Due to my inability to wake up (plus my sore eye), I skipped going to gym with Xiuli today. I am a sinner- because I have not exercised for about a week now.  So, I actually went to do some shopping with my mom at Taka. Bought quite alot of stuff; mostly stuff that I’m going to bring to hall. Haha, now I have duplicates of everything. Quite excited about moving in yet nervous at the same time. I think my social skills are steadily on the decline; I am much less willing to open up to new people as easily now; which I think is bad. Maybe i’m just too lazy.

School’s starting. I need to get a hold on myself.


DAMN. The first thing my mom said to me when i stepped into the house was: “Eh, why are you so smelly?” I was speechless. Because i totally knew that I stank so bad, so bad to the extent even I could kill myself. All thanks to: (read post title)

I was totally irritated even before dinner. Thanks to beloved Xiu Li!!!! I wasted 45 minutes of my life waiting at Tanah Merah MRT Station like a bloody retard!!! Haha, i could totally have a bitch fit then. Instead I channelled my anger into chewing gum. Thank goodness I managed to find a pack of gum in my bag! If not, I would have gone bonkers.

Dinner was worse. The location was bad; the smoke irritated my eyes and nose; I was engulfed by the smelly haze. I ended up drinking 2 glasses of fizzy drinks. In the end, I couldn’t take it anymore and so I left with XL and we ate at HK Char Chan Teng instead. Not wonderful but at least better than SPG. I took many pictures of XL and her distorted facial expressions. To catch a glimpse of them, check out hers/my facebook account.

Blasted money at TheBodyShop. Shucks, I can’t believe I always fall for sales gimmicks knowingly.

Time is ticking. Before I know it, another chapter will unfold before my very eyes…

P.S.I’m so looking forward to going out with my OG/Jo/XL!!!!


Adieu.

Very tired. Shat, I think I’m at my weakest right now. Despite waking up at 12 plus (and as a result not meeting Xiuli to exercise), and taking another nap in the afternoon, I’m still very tired. I guess it’s true when they say sleeping too much is bad.

So I went swimming yesterday afternoon. I’m surprised at how I tan so easily now. The sun was not particularly hot; in fact there was barely any sun at all. After that, i went over to the airport to meet the rest of the class! Agenda: To send Ying Qing off! It was supposed to a surprise anyway, because she totally had no idea we were going to show up.

But it was rather lame towards the end because we ended up engaging in our small talks! Eventually we headed home after Ying Qing had to go settle her stuffs. All the best to her, I think it’ll be fun over there in Australia!

On this note, I will be checking into hall on 23rd July, which is like next Thursday! For people who don’t know, I will be staying in King Edward Vii Hall. As to why I’m staying in a hall which is damn far from my faculty, it’s a long story. Afterall, using the internal shuttle definitely beats having to travel all the way from SIMEI to CLEMENTI. Plus, what Xiuli said is totally true: “At least you won’t be late for school.” I hope. So many things to settle! Can’t imagine how those people going overseas will feel.

I am going to a free man soon. I need to hold on.


Get-Together.

Helped out at SOT yesterday cause they were short-handed. I’m not sure if short-handed is the appropriate phrase; maybe I should say that I went back to clear the piling workload.

Right after work ended, i walked over to Raffles City Sushi Tei to meet the girls. People present: Xiuli, Sock Hian, Selina, Shu Min, Wei Lin, Pei Xin, Yun Xuan, Qian Bing and Huang Lin. Apparently, some people asked why our gathering was so random. Is it? I don’t think so. Too bad Joanne couldn’t join us because she was down with fever and cough. Take care Joanne! Get well soon!

The food was good, but the company was better. Nothing beats hanging out with a group of good friends and chatting over dinner. We headed to the rooftop terrace at Esplanade to chill after dinner. Played a lame game of “Truth-and-Dare”. Was asked stupid questions and made to do embarrassing stuff. But well, we’ll just laugh it off.

Reached home and plonked down on my bed instantly. As a result of my sleeping late, I had difficulties waking up this morning. Felt really apologetic as it was my responsibility to open up. Because of me being late, Mr Tong has to open up instead. Ahhhh, i totally hate it when I’m late and thus cause inconvenience to others. It’s a damn bad habit I’m forever trying to kick, but to no avail.

Feeling totally lethargic now. It’s going to be a really busy day for me tomorrow. Going out with sister in the morning, swimming with cousin in the afternoon and meeting 5D/6C42 at the airport in the evening! I shall be able to sleep well tomorrow night.


Change.

Hi folks! I have decided to stop using blogger and switch to WordPress instead! Pardon me for the very long and hard-to-remember url. Haha, pourpre chateau actually means purple castle in French. Why french? No idea.

Today is yet another day of slacking for me. I attempted the sample paper and have started reading: The third chimpanzee, the evolution and future of the Human Animal by Jared Diamond. Although I’m only a few chapters into the book, i can forsee that it will be a really good read.

The third chimpanzee

I had planned to go running/kayaking with Xiuli tomorrow, but due to some last minute changes, I am going back to help out at SOT. I guess I’ll never get tired of that place will I?

So now that i have stopped working full-time at SOT, I’m spending my days trying to lead a healthy life. By that, I mean making an effort to do some exercise, like going to the gym/swimming. (To XL: Mission!) I shall see whether my efforts will pay off or go down the drain.

On a side note: It’s really good to know that all my friends have found their guiding light.

Till then.
