this time next wk i'll be getting more brown at the pool session and honestly speaking i cant believe a mth has just zipped past me.
and with even greater honesty, i'm dreading going back to work, cos it sucks to go back to something you dont like doing. i'm not even certain when my official last day is going to be. coupled with everyone getting big bonuses, lets jus say demotivation is at an all time high.
nonetheless, perseverance! faith, hope and by virtue of fate and luck.
anyways the cousin and i had a good time after studying last night. was damn sian cos everyone else was probably partying and having fun whilst we were starved at 9pm and didnt wanna head straight into the crowds. so decided to skip the jam at cte and headed towards serangoon, and then spontaneously decided to check out mustafa, somewhat forgetting there were also crowds there, jus that they were darker eheh. but ya la skip cte jam, end up jam at syed alwi. but we had a good feast at muthu's curry, and overate as usual, with fish head curry, sambal squid, chicken kebab, naan basket and my fave pappadam. damn shiok. then we did some 24-hr shopping, and ended up with *drumroll* 2 tiny sample bottles of shampoo each. hehe. NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF RETAIL THERAPY. as mymy succinctly puts it, 'retail therapy...even my hair looks good today.'
speaking of mich, something happened earlier which reminded me of something else she said. so i was at some spa getting a massage and somehow..... ended up chatting with the therapist abt her home, family, life etc etc. at the back of my head, mich's voice was ringing, 'you know ah, out of all my frens, only you and wm have this ability to get ppl talking about their families.' and so i learnt abt shanghai, jiangsu, the strawberry farm behind her home, why she chose to come here, interesting stuff. oh and canuf, apparently tianjin has damn alot of good xiao chi, and the fruits are seasonal so if u go during winter, eat the xue li, and inautumn (i tink), eat the huang tao (yellow peach). bring some back!
my mother's been giving me shit for gg diving. its annoying and i'm still going no matter what so i shall just close both ears.
sigh massage was so shiok i wanna zz. and its abt to pour, perfect weather! cept i'm 1/4 way thru the full paper. which isnt as bad as the kaplan one i did. kaplan did warn that those were the hardest practise questions. i hope they're right!
