How was my day?

I was locking my bike yesterday. And my keys turned funny, but my bike was lock, so i didn't care. And then, I pulled the keys out and the keys just twisted like toffee and snapped. And so my keys broke into half. And then I thought, this is going to be a start. And then, I just got really tired that night. My eyes just couldn't stand it. I had not been sleeping earlier than 1. Consistently ever since I went to London. That might have been the problem. Lol.

And then, I decided to sleep and wake up early to do work. It was 10pm. And things turned around. I got more sleep. I woke up and did some work. I managed to tidy up my room a bit more. I managed not to be late for my first lecture of the day. I finished up chem prac at 4 instead of 5. I washed the dirty dishes lying about. And I'm going for a formal tonight. And so, today is a good day...

Even more so, if I had not wasted time onlining. Lol. I have to do work and my report now. And then end the day with a formal. Hopefully won't be rushing work like mad tonight. Will tell you guys what formals are next time. =p

Possibly the biggest blemish of the day? The hall finally charged me double for a big big serving of potatoes. I wanted to save money, so I only take potatoes and one main dish. The main dish is small. And even with an overflowing plate of potatoes, I still manage to feel hungry by 4. What to do? I'm gonna cook a lot lot lot more. Unless I'm lazy, I'll go to hall. =p Kena caught liao, so 恼羞成怒. LOOOL.

In this Week

I've been neglecting my blog again. This is bad. So, I'm updating...

I went to London yesterday. To what I saw yesterday, I have quite some comments that I'm not able to share publicly online. Let's just say it has to do with lousy communication, but I digress. I went to this Majlis Ramah Mesra thing yesterday at Brunei Hall and saw the Dep. Minister of Education. The usual process of speeches, questions and lunch.

And then I went to find Dennis in Hammersmith for some stuffs I left in his room. BUT! Everywhere on the tube was closed. So annoying! The whole Circle Line was closed. Hammersmith, District and Northern line, partial closure. Got to see Syazana and Shin Ling for a short while.

Got to Hong Kong Fusion late. Sang a bit. Hahaha. Believe it or not, there aren't english karaoke's in Cambridge. Only Chinese. So ironic. Got to meet some more people in the end. Hehe. Which was nice.

I went to ceilidh. Which is folk dancing. It was fun. You pair up with random people and then just dance. Of course, you'd have to like jumping around. But it was nice. I consider it my first form of dancing with girls. Haha. Clubbing doesn't actually count, since I dance more in a self high.

And I bought roast duck from Four Seasons back here for lunch today. Niceee. =p

Just Before Collections

I'm actually finally back in my own room, but I'm spending the whole time mugging, mugging, mugging (Singaporean slang for studying) for my Collections (Sort of mock exams, which does not count for anything though). This was supposed to be like, Hey, I'm back in Cambridge again and smiles. I'm like looking a bunch of stressed out people everywhere in college, with a few exceptions who are well prepared. Should I be thankful that people are like me, or should I be regretful that my environment wasn't more encouraging for me to stop procrastination?

So slaps on the head to remind myself that start of term is the start of school. Start of crazy, madcap hecticness. Another bout of learning self discipline in doing work and being on time. But then again, I am looking forward to running, trampoline and stuffs. I suddenly feel either masochistic or completely not thinking with head through. I should rant about start of term. Lol.

Well, this is supposed to be a short break from studying. So I'll go and take a showers. Oh, digression, invest in bath gels. Good ones can be therapeutic. Well, at least, I like showers, baths and that sort of thing. Let the hot water just melt away the cares. A bit of aromatherapy. Nix on that Palmolive shower gel I had. Yayyy to Original Source and Radox. And rest my tired eyes too. BRAWWRRR, off to shower... =p

Studying, Studying

I'm currently surviving at Chee Hui's in Cambridge right now. I am definitely not paying the 20 pounds a day for my own room, and that is why cheapskate me is staying over at my friend's. He's studying for his exams, which is good, cause I get the mood to study too.

Though, I've been stuck with Physics. Sighs. Who told me to be late for lectures? So, effectively I'm studying all on my own, surviving on the given notes, without any lecturer's help. Lack of internet access has also been a good thing. I've been studying more and not succumbing to lack of willpower. So wish me luck and I will wish everyone else who is studying like me lots of luck too.

I'm absolutely bombing at cooking these days. Mistakes everywhere. So, I'm gonna just cook under strict instructions, which I am gonna ask for. I apologise to Chee Hui who has had to eat my cooking. My intuition is absolutely horrible for cooking, so for the moment, lemme learn how to stirfry.

And oh, a very very belated Happy Birthday to Yi Huey. Quite belated. Don't scold me.

New Year

Hey, Happy New Year to everybody. It's the start of a new year and I am currently staying my last night in London and tomorrow I'm back to Cambridge. Have to start to tighten up my pockets, since I've spending needlessly much.

Have to start studying too. Hehe. Lent term is about to kick in and I wanna get a headstart. Hand in homework on time and not sleep at mad mad hours. If everything goes well, like I have extra time (if that is ever possible), possibly I might wanna take a weekend out or so for Chinese New Year.

I'm gonna plan my vacation for Easter too. Lol. Ambitious. And oh, some good news to probably some people, I might wanna try organising next year's trip. Quite obvious what I mean I hope.

I wonder how is it like back in Brunei?
