To step up, take one step forward, to promote change.
Instead of talk, we can start small.
It's a pet project, but it might just become a reality.
I haven't felt so excited and motivated by a project in a long time.


It's time for
CHANGE.

Today was a good day.

Developed some SEP photos. by photos I mean about 5% of my total photos.
I developed 283 photos for almost 85dollars. =X
They are very pretty photos though. I am going album shopping tmr. Hehs.

Met MH in town and had a blast. Robinsons was having a 70% + 15% sale. HAHS. I bought a cardigan for 37-8 dollars when it's original price is 150dollars. 
Is very happy.
Saw the Paris Hilton brand of bags. Very very pretty. =D Very very expensive. D=

She skipped lessons so we went to JP to get ice cream and baking needs. Wahahas. MH now has much much suger. Of the white and brown kind. 
Went back to her house to make ice cream, snack and play wii. OMG very fun and retarded <3

All in all a good day to be lazy and procrastinate.












Having to browse through ALL of my photos to select some to print made me cross-eyed. 
And very very sad.
All the memories come flooding back, the anticipation of going out, experiencing new things. It feels like I went on a one way journey in life to experience more, learn more and grow...

...only to come back to Singapore.

Not that I don't like Singapore. Travelling has made it clear that I don't want to live anywhere else but Singapore. Still it feels like instead of going ahead, I've come one full circle instead.

A merry-go-round?

I've just filed for graduation.

It was just three simple clicks.

Is pretty overwhelmed by school work load.
From 8hrs per week to 7hrs in a day. Not fun.
I think all the year threes are busy hidding and mugging away because I pretty much do not recognize anyone in school anymore.
Except when I meet certain people then I get really happy.
This Tuesday was so sad sad sad. I was so lonely, what with being a science student on that day.
Is however vvvv happy to find universe kakis to wince at "As-stro-no-meee".
Needs to read something intellectual soon.
About time to curb internet addiction.
Some people are burdens. Some mean to, some don't. Obligations.
But ya know, I kinda have better things to do rather then listen to you.
I would actually have to like you first. =X
Is not happy that CNY is coming soon.
CNY is pretty boring for the Evelyn.
Wants to sleep in.
Is not really enjoying the three 8am lectures per week thingy.
Really wants to sleep in.
C. was on time for 8am lecture today, so proud!
Needs new shoes. An old favourite pair literally tore itself today. Bought $3 thongs to replace them. 
$3 OMG. So cheap. Like how school food is really cheap.
Found out if I were to stay at RVR I would have gotten the tower block. 6th floor can. Totally windy.
Really likes her MICKEY keychain. Never wants to change it.
Needs to meet a few more people. 24hrs totally not enough.
Wants to go Japan.
Eating chinese desserts with Green people is <3
We suggest changing Green to Purple. Green leaDer does not approve. oh weeell.
Needs to finish Doctor Who and Gossip Girl. OMG D and S get back together? Do not want. Yet totally want.

And the bed beckons.

Human beings will never be satisfied will we?

Well, myself at least.

Singapore, is too hot, not used to standing on the left, is too hot, does not have enough wind, people walk too slowly, is too hot, cannot wear scarf, cannot wear boots, is too hot, is too crowded, lectures are too big, is too hot, humidity is bad for hair, does not have transport cap, too hot for coffee or hot chocolate, IS TOO DAMN HOT.

But then again it is nice to be home. It's nice not to have to cook for myself and eat the same vegetable for 4 days ina row. It's nice that our transportation is fast and efficient. I love the central library! All the little things makes Singapore home, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

I miss the UK and SEP and it was a wonderful experience for my muchly un-exciting life. It made me step out from my various comfort zones, that not all strangers are bad. Some are actually very fun to get to know! I want to go back, but I feel content for now. =D

But that period of my life is closed and another semester of NUS has begun. Everything is familar and yet foreign. It takes me some time to recall where AS4 is, where my modules are going to be. Accessing IVLE instead of LUVLE.

This term is an important term for me and the will to study is, as usual in the start of the term, on a high. I hope it actually lasts this time. But taking 6 modules this semester means a certain amount of discipline is needed. The fact that I actually have non-examinable modules is a relief, yet not. These modules tend to require CONSTANT hard work, instead of a last spurt at the end. 

arrgh.  Also, falling ill. Or have become ill. My eyes and head hurt.

JETLAG.

Have decided on my modules, just waiting to see if I can bid them. The crazy admin issues of SEP is also catching up with me (WHAT? GIMMIE A FEW DAYS AT LEAST!!!). 

NEED TO DO SO MANY STUFF.

Also, my house and room feels weird. I miss my cozy room back in Lancaster. This room is kinda too big. Also Singapore is really hot.

Like really, a bit too hot.

I met this angmoh on the plane going to Hanoi for 3 months then backpacking around that area for another 3 months. And he tells me he can't function in the heat and that 28 degrees is too much. I told him good luck. (And gave him a very weird stare.)

JETLAG
I am home.

So many things to say, so many emotions to deal with.

Except CORS bidding is much more important. 

Help me.

I finally received the postcard the SST sent me. One day before I leave London. One day before I leave the UK.

Call it luck or fate. The postcard came to me at the right time. It made me remember what I miss and want so much. It brought a sense of homesickness that was relieved with the knowledge that it is less then 48 hours before I am finally home.

Just when I was feeling all emotional about leaving the UK after getting so used to the life here, I received the best cure. Something from home. Something familiar. Something reminding me that people still think I’m on an exchange to London.

Lancaster people.

I love you guys!

Now I can't wait to get back home! I'm just hoping my baggage doesn't go over 30kg. XD
