cold in the cold

*sniffle sniffle*
Cold time.
I refuse to move out of my apartment while I am sick, and unpacked.
Am illegally squatting in IH for the moment, not like they could rent out our apartment anyway.
Last night I refused to go to bed while there were guests in 301. Not even when i had a splitting headache and a mild fever from my cold. Haha.. Stubborn. Today feel grumpy and groggy - but i blame the drugs.
Realise that I am embarking on quite a long trip. And will probably not have a break til uni starts again. Oh dear lord.
Oh well, at least I get to see this again soon... albeit with different company.Bye bye civilisation.
p.s: can someone please cuddle and manja and pamper me while i wallow in my illness? thanks.

Life in the Holidays....

so what have i been up to?
this carefree life. this life without.. erm... cares. this holiday time before the action starts...
i imagine this is what limbo will feel like. the not quite there but not really anywhere feeling.
i've been keeping busy, HONEST! i've been cooking, and sleeping, and erm..

i've been trying to pick up art again... see!! first.. the venture into chalks again.. still undecided as to whether this is nice enough to keep.then my attempt at sleeping puppy.. cos i like drawing sleeping things.. haha.. still not that good. got a bit bored of it after a while so started rushing things. and then my oh-so-innocent ickle bunny.. better than before, but i was half-arsed about the mug. haha

finally, i've been cultivating my new love for wentworth miller. *drool*
he is SO fine but seriously, he is hot. i am also quite hooked on to prison break. haha.. wentworth miller.....

oh yeah, and i also went mini-golfing yesterday after being hijacked from the ih gang that went to the movies.. but mini golfing is so much rarer! yay! i still suck at it getting about par 84. muahaha.. out of erm.. probably a par 50 to 60 course. *blush* bad hand-eye coordination. it was all good fun anyway. and the best part of mini golf? playing with the crane machine at the end! haha.. you know you almost never win and i was a bit apprehensive putting in my 2 dollars, but it was worth it! 4 tries and 2 dollars later ... 2 carebears! sorry cc, wanted to give one to you but both are so adorably cuuuute! i still love you *HuGz* btw.. your bears are bigger than mine.

calm before the hectic central australia trip. here we go for another 5 relaxing days...

Bon Voyage...

it's a dedication post..
i guess at uni you should be used to seeing people come and go, but the sadness that clenches your heart whenever you see people leaving hardly lessens. maybe just me, sentimental fool, but i get this way watching other people reminisce. i think i feel worse for them thinking that things will change after they leave.
haha.. attachment is a funny thing. anywayz, pictures up to keep them in mind. =P

Bye bye Chandy!

Bye bye Raymond!

shtoopid med kids have to do ams... means they go away for a year... *snort*

Bye bye James Martin!Bye bye Megan and Ann!
Bye bye Megan (again) and Rachel!

you exchange people have no right coming here for such a short while, teaching me things like the cookie song and then leaving again. =(

oh well, life is about coming and going... like the Stereophonics once said...

You got to go there to come back

Miss you guys already. Take care, big *HuGz* and toodles...

World Cup Fever!

World Cup! World Cup! World Cup!!

Reflecting on a sem gone by (catching up on slack)

Well, i've reached the end of semester when i have no more excuses not to write anything. It flew by quite quickly and when i figured i would settle down into knowing people and finding my niche in iH, it seems like i'm at the same place i was when the year began. there's only one conclusion... the freshers are weird.
but anyway, that's not the point. i attempted to smush 5 months worth of happenings into this one blog. it doesn't justify it at all, but at least it's here...

COMMENCEMENT DINNER - 2 MARCH 2006
nice big group picture.. with some random person's sleeve *HhhRrrMmpPPhhHHh*

DUTCH NATIONAL NIGHT - 18 MARCH 2006

THE 301 vs 401 SHOT RACE - 14 APRIL 2006

The competitors at the beginning of the race... (okay, so maybe we had a little bit of outside help... but the other apartment are monsters!)

SCHOLAR'S DINNER - 4 JUNE 2006

heehee... look how many people jumped into the picture because they wanted to be in the same photo as pretty alison cole!! (she's on my left!)

living in 301 has been pretty much awesome all the time. i maintain that we have the homeliest, most lived in (read: messiest) apartment in the college. but heck, i'm proud of it.

(taken at the beginning of the sem.. see.. they're all still squatting outside)

admittedly with my own fears of being in too close quarters to my best friends at the start of the year, i think our relationships have developed - we learn to compromise, we bitch a bit, but i think we wouldn't dream of living with anyone else at the end of it. =)














the teams for our balloon stepping contest.

game on!

so, a few shitty subjects, too many parties - in 301 and out of it - later, and we're pretty much at the end of one semester! i'm halfway through uni already... despite the 2nd year blues, well, it's all going alright isn't it?

love love love to everyone is all i can say. =)
