This is Nelson, brimming with hope.
Maybe, just maybe, he'll find true love this time.
And so with a sunflower, he waits for his date...

Impaired.
Words can barely express how frustrating it is to live in the hall without easy access to a computer. With so many assignments, online readings and research to do, it is darn darn darn frustrating (honestly, no better word fits better) to be impaired this way. I can't wait for my Macbook. My ipod was delivered to my home a couple of days back, so I'm hoping for a miracle whatsoever that my laptop will come soon after.
In case you're wondering, this quickie post (I know Xiu, again!) hails from one of the PC labs. Currently waiting for Charlene to be done with her printing and hit the pool. My third time this week. Lay Ming commented that I'm starting to smell of chlorine. Hahaha! I'd better give myself a good old scrubbing later.
Headed down to town (I feel isolated from civilisation here in the West) for a good old catch-up with the IG peeps last night. And I got to take a peek at giraffe! A pretty atas place, but good ambience nonetheless. Managed to sneak in a drink at Pre-Rouge with TC as well. It was good seeing him again after so long, but it never feels good to know your friend's hurting and not be able to do anything about it.
She's done! Time for a swim.

Sunday in solitude.
Sunday in solitude.
This weekend's gone by so quickly, I'm hurrying yet again to post this before leaving for my computer-free hostel room. Ecks. I hope my Macbook comes soon.
Went by Ikea yesterday to pick up the remaining things I need, like a cushion and a garbage bin! Lugged back a few more knick knacks along the way, so I'm really blessed to be able to hitch a ride from Jason's family, who are also coming by for a quick peek. I'd really ought to get around to cleaning my room again. I can feel the dust.
Oops, they're here. Gotta run.

Obssessive compulsive.
Obssessive compulsive.
I think I must be one of the most neurotic people around. Having spent enough time deciding between a Mac or PC laptop, I went ahead to place my order for a Fujitsu Lifebook yesterday, decided today that I'd very much rather have a Mac book, then spent a good whole three hours purchasing it online. I'd better get my ass down to the computer shop to cancel my Fujitsu asap.
Next dilemma? Exemption from certain subjects. Should I drop or should I not? Dropping would definitely mean more time on my hands and lesser examinations to sit for. Then again, I'm not really keen on accelerating. Someone, please knock me unconscious before I drive myself crazy.
I'd better get some shut-eye and get the flu out of my system. Check out the two candid shots I stole from Cecilia's blog. That sneaky girl.

Retarded ramblings.
Retarded ramblings.
Why am I so zonked? It's not the first that I'm surviving on six hours of sleep. In fact, six hours ain't that little come to think of it. Yawn. Must have been all that swimming and walking Lanxi and I did today.
Unlike Monday, the pool was infested with beefcakes today. That means lane cutting, weird grunting and pure testerone overload. Well, Lanxi and I still managed to do our thing and complete our laps. We even threw in abit of sunning on the sun chairs. (Comfy, I like.)
We were somehow ravenous after the workout and without even bothering to shower, we changed into our rumpled togs and sat down to a good old zhi char lunch at my hall's canteen. Haha, thank goodness the place was almost empty so no one we knew saw us in our dishevelled states.
Decided to pop by Charmain's stall at the bazaar and I led Lanxi across the campus and back. Sorry babe! I really ought to do something about my sense of direction. Headed down to Jurong Point for dinner and here I am in Erwin's room for his internet services. I'm supposed to be checking out some poly exemption stuff I have to submit tomorrow but there's a whole lot of stuff of I have to print. Doubt I'll be able to get it all in on time.
Enough with the blogging. Better stop before Faiz gets pissed off with my unauthorized use of his laptop!

Tomorrow's yet another day I'll have to spend without my computer. I really ought to place my order for a laptop tomorrow, though I am still deciding between a normal pc and a mac. Dilemmas dilemmas. I think I make things too hard for myself sometimes. I'll just go with my gut tomorrow.
I don't know how this is gonna make me sound but today was the first in several years that I'd actually sat down to watch the whole parade on tv from the start to the end. I was watching some movie on the couch with Jason when the greyish clouds parted and mild sunlight peeked through. It was an afternoon that made me think of a field of red poppy flowers, don't ask.
The sunlight was warm and inviting and I was filled with a sudden urge to be outside in its gentle warmth. Jason wasn't exactly dressed for the beach so I thought I'd try my luck with the next best place that reminded me of red poppy flowers.
Me: "Wanna go down to Ikea after this show ends?"
Jason: "For what? You wanna buy something?"
Me: "No, walk around. It's too beautiful a day to spend cooped up inside."
Jason: "It's almost 4 now!"
Me: "So?"
Jason: "National Day Parade starts at 6! We'll never make it back in time!"
Me: "Oh, you wanna watch?"
Jason: -mouth agape- "You mean you don't?"
Me: "Eh, I'm okay whether we watch it or not."
Jason: "What?! It's the National Day Parade!!!"
Me: -sheepish smile-
Jason: "Oh my god! You're so unpatriotic!" -goes into rant about how he feels everytime he watches the parade-
Haha. I am feeling pretty amused. I had no idea I was dating such a patriot.
Time to get some shut eye. I gotta be up in 5 hours for the poly exemption talk. Hitting the school pool with Lanxi after that. Toodles.

Keep me on cloud nine.
Keep me on cloud nine.
music: keri noble - talk to me
Settling into my hostel was way easier than I'd expected. No more frantic packing or lugging of huge bagfuls of knick knacks - I am fully moved in. It's really interesting how a person can be defined by the room he/she lives in. Heard from Daena that one of her friends has got a Winnie the Pooh shrine. Hmm. Haha. I don't know about a beach shrine for myself, but I've done all I could to give my room a laidback vibe without overcrowding it with accessories. My string of flower lights must been my best buy from Bangkok. To think I'd actually almost left Suan Lom night market without it!
My first day was a blast! The funniest thing we all did was probably running across buildings and up stairwells searching for the elusive LT11. I was breaking into giggles half the time, haha. Checked out the school pool together with Charlene and Erwin after lectures. I think I've found my new hangout! Uncrowded + clean water + no lecherous lifeguards = my dream come true.
After an unsuccessful attempt at napping in the late evening, Charmaine, Chrystal, Erwin, Venetia and I hit the Nanyang Auditorium for the Hall Bash. With drinks and djs from Dbl O, the event was surprisingly happening. And I surprised myself by dancing despite my prior protests. Must have been the drinks I downed with Chrys and ZL before we rejoined the dance floor. I have permanently sealed my cannot-dance status but it was fun, liberating even, letting myself go.
We left the party only to come face to face with overcast skies. Armed with nothing but a resigned sense of humour, we set out to battle the pelting rain and fight our way back to the comfort of warm rooms and cosy sheets. It's been a couple of months since I'd last walked in the rain and while I wouldn't count thick jeans and clingy tops as ideal outfits for rain walks, I enjoyed the experience.
I didn't get to bed till four in the morning and while I was looking forward to sleeping in, the national day celebrations from the primary school across the road woke me up at 730, very much to my chagrin. And so I lay in bed drifting in and out of sleep but mostly listening to the off-key renditions of patriotic songs. Urghs. I gave up and started to write a poem in my notepad, only to have the music stop. How great.
Fagan came by in the afternoon for lunch as well as to check out my room. Thanks for making the trip down dude. I know it was painful! Heh. He was absolutely enraptured by the picture of him flipping upside down beside the Burj Al Arab.
I'd initially planned to head home after lecture but dinner plans at Mos Burger (what's it with us and that place?) with Daniel and ZL materialised. ZL and I later accompanied Shannon for his dinner at the foodcourt and the three of us ended up chatting for a good three hours about topics as random as closet gays and first impressions. I'm exhausted now, but it was good time spent. I thoroughly enjoyed the conversation and the insight to the boys' minds.
My body's demanding sleep and the vainpot in me wants to eradicate those eyebags. Night world.

Quickie.
Quickie.
music: norah jones - be here to love me
I can't believe how quickly my day has gone by. The dimsum lunch at Little India (I know, how ironic) took way longer than expected and I ended up doing my grocery shopping at Mustafa Shopping Centre. It was my first time in that place and I really did wish I had more time to shop around.
It's now 6.24pm and my brother's arrived. I'd expected him to be horribly late in coming to pick me up, but oh well. Murphy's law. I thought I'd brought enough the last time around but I've got four huge bags this time. And a television set. Haha! I'm really pushing my luck taking the time to blog this entry, but I know I'm gonna the convenience of the internet. I'd better get my hands on a laptop asap.
A quick update on Indochine night. I gotta admit that I've always been a little intimidated by the whole exclusivity of the place, but it was surprisingly unpretentious inside. The band, with a playlist of excellent slow rock songs, was awesome. So was the company. One might have thought Ceci and I would have chosen a slightly more intimate setting for good old talking but having to strain our ears and our voices from our seats directly in front of the stage did it for us. I loved the conversation, I loved the music, I loved my night.
I'd love to ramble on but my stomach's rumbling and I've yet to shower.
Till Tuesday night. :)

Lazy Sunday mornings.
Lazy Sunday mornings.
music: howie day - collide
What is your idea of a lazy Sunday? I know many who think it to be a day for sleeping in till it's time for lunch but I like to rise early. A leisurely breakfast, a mug of steaming coffee, reading the papers. Mine started kinda late today, but I'm heading out for brunch with the family in abit, so all's good. And I've got to fit in a whole bout of supermarketing to stock up on my hostel rations. Haha!
This whole week of moving into the hostel and adapting to university life has given me quite abit of a buzz. So has the many FFLoosh outings and socializing. Yesterday was a welcome change from my routine of late. No groups. No need for small talk or anything. It was just me being around people I am most comfortable with.
I'd love to rave more about my wonderful Saturday, but the dad's rushing. I'd better get my ass out of here. Toodles.

Just a tad.
Just a tad.
I got a tad melancholic earlier in the evening as I was ironing my stash of clothes to bring to the hall. Goodness, can you imagine how I'd feel if I were getting married??? But that aside, it is still extremely exciting to be setting up another home!
I've three full bags of knick knacks, all ready to be transported to my hostel. Kinda feels like I'm going on a holiday actually haha! Was afraid I'll miss having a computer (even though it's just for a night, I know!) hence this quick post. Zipping off.

music: andy stochansky - 22 steps
My auntie's incredulous at the rate my bath lilies fall apart. "I use one, you use three. Don't know how you use." I'm extremely tickled. Maybe I am over-dilligent in scrubbing, but hey, it's all in the name of hygiene!
Wanna guess why I'm posting so early in the morning? Lanxi has called to postpone our 10am run to 1020.. so I've got a couple more minutes to kill. Thinking of her has me in stitches. Some of you would probably have heard of the "black cats, bulldog and fox" story I've related to so many times. ROFL. Let's see what she'll say today...
Shopping around Ikea with Charmain and Erwin yesterday has gotten me all excited about decorating my hostel room. I'd initially had the intention to move just the basic neccessities and spend my Year 1 life in a jailcell-like room, BUT I've changed my mind.
You see, I've acquired quite a stash of barang barang from my travels with the intention of redecorating my room when my dad finally gets around to repainting the walls and installing a new wardrobe. It's obviously not happening anytime soon so... what better way to test run the knick knacks than in my hostel room? It's all rather excting, imagine creating my own piece of paradise!
Speaking of hostel rooms, I've gotten my time-table. No free day like Charmain and Shannon I heard, but I'm pretty happy with the scheduling - I (almost) have a 4-day weekend! And I think Erwin and I have the exact schedules, so no walking around like a blind bat for me. I don't think I've actually admitted this before but having to start school being the only TP girl is extremely terrifying. Thank goodness it's all gotten better.
All right, time to hit the beach baby.

music: rachel yamagata - i wish you love
It's really time I slept. My QET starts at 930am tomorrow and that means that I'll have to wake up at the unearthly hour of 630 in the morning. Why oh why didn't I take up Ede's suggestion to sleep over tonight?
I've cleaned up my hostel room! (View pictures below.) Mine wasn't as dusty as my friends have made theirs out to be, but it still required quite abit of dusting and cleaning. Ken and Erwin have gotten some pretty unglamorous shots of me on the floor mopping obscure corners. Urghs.
Spent a lazy afternoon in town post-cleaning with a good coffee session included. Now that the caffeine's worn off, I'm sleepy. Good night world.

I don't wanna use you
Just to have somebody by my side
And I don't wanna hate you
I don't wanna take you
But I don't wanna be the one to cry
That don't really matter to anyone, anymore
But like a fool I keep losing my place
And I keep seeing you walk through that door
But there's a danger in loving somebody too much
And it's sad when you know it's your heart you can't trust
There's a reason why people don't stay where they are
Baby sometimes love just ain't enough
Now I could never change you
I don't wanna blame you
Baby you don't have to take the fall
Yes I may have hurt you
But I did not desert you
Maybe I just wanna have it all
It makes a sound like thunder
It makes me feel like rain
And like a fool who will never see the truth
I keep thinking something's gonna change
But there's a danger in loving somebody too much
And it's sad when you know it's your heart you can't trust
There's a reason why people don't stay where they are
Baby sometimes love just ain't enough
And there's no way home
When it's late at night and you're all alone
Are there things that you wanted to say
Do you feel me beside you in your bed
There beside you where I used to lay
But there's a danger in loving somebody too much
And it's sad when you know it's your heart you can't trust
There's a reason why people don't stay where they are
Baby sometimes love just ain't enough
Baby sometimes love just ain't enough.
