lazy days

haven't been up to much since my return: seen a few people, met up with family, had a huge humungous japanese dinner courtesy of some lucky rich people with 6 months bonuses. brought helen around the tiny island that is singapore, i had to think really hard where to bring her cos there isn't really much choice here is there?

and most recently, I'VE FALLEN SICK. bummer. and not just any plain old sickness, it has to be the mother of all illnesses. struck me down and made me do nothing but lie in bed the whole day on monday, i'm not kidding. feeling much better now, but i'm gearing myself up for my first public appearance since the virus attacked, at a class gathering no less.

yesterday was recuperation day, together with pineapple tart baking day! ahh the smells that were wafting from the kitchen... too bad my stomach was still feeling a bit queasy, else there wouldn't be that many pineapple tarts left now. all this food's for the fresher's tea party on saturday, where we finally get to see the new blood going into cams. these people are scary. ok, i have to say, in a fit of boredom and when facebook stalking seemed interesting, i have found out that these freshies have been interacting with the other newcomers from all over the uk going into the same college! sounds like how dave, lorna and tara first "met" one another way way before we stepped into pem. gosh, i wish my children will be nice and enthu.

jiayi and i were just lamenting how we miss osca. although we all said it was the most tiring thing we've ever done, but it was so much fun. i wouldn't give up the experience for anything. maybe next year, another country, another 6 good summer weeks? mmm.

back

6 weeks in honkers. and now i'm back.

it's been great. i'm already missing it.

now's the start of some serious slacking, chilling and bumming. woohoo.

ooooh i'm in heaven...

hongkong!

the week back in singapore just flew by. and now it's 6 weeks of hk.

it was a good week by any standards, saw most of my friends but too little of the family. then again, some of them are flying back to different parts of the world while i'm here in cantoland, so i'm justified. i hope.

we missed the fireworks last night. 10th anniversary of independence. i can't believe it was that long ago.

owell.. DIMSUM soon! i'm starving.

a quick update before i fly off tonight into a champagne world set right on my doorstep that is the pembroke may ball...

it's been a week since the last day of hell and i've grown significantly tanner. the sun came out for cumas' garden party, but decided to snub us at cumsa. but i am thankful to say that the rainy season seems to be over now. just in time for mayball.

john's june ent: around the world. made the hugest mistake to join the 2 hour queue for crepes in the rain. i can't complain about the free food and ice lollies though. the dj was fantastic.. i haven't had that much fun for time.. well for 3 days to be exact.

i can't believe jesus had the feeling play for them! and we've got noisettes. female lead singers don't bode very well for me, gwen excluded. bummer. i was hoping for a good band this year. we'll seeee...
