its sun..but since i am lazy to write a separate blog for sat..hahz! so..
the day i shed a tear..
nah.. i wished it was because it was becoz of being here alone or missing home..well i do miss home and everyone..but it was during the tv prog i was watchin..they were doin someting on the ironman competition..haha and i was reali emotional when they were covering a former ironman who met with an accident yet is still participating in this years competition..only diff..he's on his special wheelchair..i was so inspired and touched by his story that i just couldn't help it.. i started to cry..
all the other stories on the personal triumphs and achievements by all those whom participate were so motivating..i tink i will train for a marathon since i need to maintain my fitness here too. it be my personal triumph. hmm..maybe a half marathon again first.haha the prev one didn;t go tt well...
went chinatown and had curry chicken rice.. smells and tastes great.. almost as good as the one back home..too bad...it be a while before i get back...to all the food! haha and lovedones no doubt..
without a doubt coming here alone has made me realise certain tings..like how easy it is for us to forget hw difficult it is to set up a place called home ..and the diff tings a parent hv to go thru... well.. mums kinda a worrying person..so yea.. well.. they called earlier and it was so good to hear from them.
u cld feel ur throat gettin dry..its a feeling most of us wun experience till the day u come upon it. i was really loooking forward for them to call and yea..it felt so good to hear their voices and know all of them are doing fine.
first day in uni tml..so looking forward to it..still apprehensive abt the whole ting..well..time to go for it!
its really intimidating to consider u be doing something u have never done before and now u have to go right in to the 2nd year subjects without prior foundation in it?
hmm..makes me shudder at times..
CM4 is my only companion late at night..not really close to my hsemate yet..and he is not the talkative type too..well..i hope we can click soon..
Arsenal! champs for ePL 03/04..bye bye man united...well i hope tts the end result..haha
cooking dinner later...haha its edible..and i sure hope it will get better..keke =P
hmm.. i wonder why i am tinking of her rite now..sighz.. n*****..i wish u were near.

pizza..a dollar a slice
todae was the actual orientation..met new friends..well i dunno if i'll ever see em up close in lects again..but yea it was fun meeting aussies and other international students..i really enjoyed talking to them as i feel its much better then just to hang around Sporeans all the time.. no dun get me wrong..i got nothing against a fellow country man/woman..hah.
its just part of the whole studying overseas experience. there was this really cute gal, Megan..my gosh..she would make a poster gal for roxy anytime!wahaha.. too bad..shes doing philosopy and i dun tink i wld get to see her much again..sighz..haha =P i got her number though..so hmm..maybe one of these weekends..hahah
LOLz...
there was this other guy too..alex.. he's a goal keeper with a local soccer team..cool stuff ..he is playing in a semis this evening..quite quiet though..well there are plenty of those around..not quite wat u will expect..but yea..kinda nice ppl...realli friendly!
met up with Joel and we went around the city together..showed him around and i guess it felt good to have met with him..some familiar faces in a foreign country can be really therapeutic..some ppl dun understd why i always seem to be" can't wait to see u!" well..haha i guess they haven't been in my shoes before or either they are't emotionally involved as i am.
in the end..i came to a decision..one totally diff from the one i had prior to getting over here..i was so adamant and hopeful in doing psYchology and well i guess there are a few matters that led to why i have gotten myself into anthropology and sociology.wahaha
dinner soon..i wonder wats todays menu...fried rice? or more stomach wrenching cuisine?! last's nights dinner was a memorable one.haha
freezing cold..haha in the comp lab..do u need tht kinda temp to run a comp properly? it seems all labs are like a fridge..
nice pizzas they have around here.

hmmm...
suppose to meet joel..my UAS clerk today here in uni..but he was late..and since he didn't had a mobile i had to wait awhile longer and run around looking for him. but to no avail. guess i have to wait for him to call and since i had to rush off..i wonder how is he doing now.
my faculty advisor session is up in an hour..i wonder if i can still pursue my psychology major after the session..its gonna take longer then 2 years and i am not sure if i want to do that..considering i am already a semi-matured student..still with a PC tour to complete once i return to good ol' Spore.
missing the days of sunday soccer and hanging out with the guys back home..its still rather lonely here..hope it gets better once uni starts. tats next week.
its chilly today and i hate the cold weather..gimme sun and beaches anyday.
hey edwin..thanks..its nice of ya.
