Was kinda worried actually. New faces again, yet at not the usual place our local students get their tertiary education. I thought my classmates would be all punks and stuff.. dyed hairs, nose rings, sharp mohawks etc. Nonetheless, so far so good... a couple of foreign student, one of which is a guy from London, and the rest would be poly/jc grads whom I guess screwed their previous academics pretty much like I did.
Guys out number girls 2 to 1.. or there about, and there isn't really a looker. Guess that means less distractions this time. heh. Timetable seems rather packed. School every day with a max of 2 sessions. Either 9am to 12pm, or/and 1:30pm to 4:30pm. So I'll be free for during that 1 hr 30 min break.. SMU friends (nemesis, really), do ask me out for lunch.
Well, school's in now, and suddenly the days of slacking, midnight gaming sessions or suppers, sleeping at 6am, waking at 1pm, are over. The army is a distant memory now, tho being the sentimental kind that I am, reminiscence of those days still occur every now and then. I hope I can curb my gaming problems this time.. gonna need some effort to make it to the Caulfield/Clayton campuses next year. They're the better ones of Monash and I am not really keen on just going with the flow and settling with any ordinary Monash degree.
Onto the next topic... My bday. Whoever reads this, you're cordially invited to my celebration on the evening of July 14th. Venue is yet to be set tho, but chances is it'll be a chalet at Downtown East or Costa Sands East Coast.. which a bungalow at Changi being a last resort since I don't think many will turn up. Will post more details in time to come.
My biological clock has gone haywire. Been sleeping at 6 am and waking up at 1 pm these days. Thanks to the World Cup. Life's been pretty boring for a week every as my pals went working long hours, and I have anyone to go out with. Last outing with Yi Eng and Kt didn't go too well. Not only did I screw it up, I pretty much felt that I can't really relate to them as well as I did before. Something's changing for sure.
Had the best piece of beef in my life today at Shashlik, a Russian restaurant at Orchard run by Hainaneses. And I really feel the urge to introduce this restaurant to any beef eating friends I know. It's amazing how they could serve such a chunk of beef tenderer and juicier than any steak I've tried, including that of Angus steakhouse in England. Funny how I try steaks at every country I've been and the best beef I have is back home in Singapore.
My dad bought an Altis over the week. So I guess that means I will have my chance to use the old car more frequently next month on. Pity school would have started by then and I can't go out as often as I could now. Damn. How convenient it would be if I could go for badminton, swimming, supper, etc whenever I wished. Anyway, sch starts in 1 week. And does anyone have in mind on what I should do for my Bday?
Just ended the usual gaming session with Quek and Jit. And since it was a little 'early' to go to bed, I thought I'd surf thru some blogs first. Started with Yh, reminding him to bring back some peanut butter cups, which linked to Nigel, which linked to Li Lin, which linked and linked to a lot more AH friends.. everyone seem to be leading very different lifestyles, some of which I could probably just dream of.
Well, first off, Li Lin's in Northern America.. Canada or so, having some overseas attachment from SMU. Must be fun to take a overseas breather which is still under the school curriculum. 2 months of overseas living! Long enough for one to enjoy, yet not as long as the years I'll have to spend.
Some other AHians blogs drew my attention, 2 in particular. Kiat Peng's one (ooOoO)... and Joseph (yes, that dickhead, he's 10 cm taller than me, 10 cm of extra dick growth at the wrong end)..
For some reason, Joseph hasn't updated his blog for a while.. but from the recent entries, it seems he's pretty much a clubbing animal and is into GOTH as well. Interesting. Perhaps he'll burn his fingers playing with a gothic girl. o.O Just as vain as before I guess, posting about his fashion and hairstyles. Still, I wonder if I could ever lead such a lifestyle, hanging out with girls weekly at clubs. Cool huh? :D
Kiat Peng.. haha, the one-time belle of AH.. seems to have an inferiority complex regarding her below-average sized boobs. Nonetheless, she's enjoying a pretty nice life and a promising future. Still attached to Weiwei (my pri sch friend with a PSLE score of 288, highest for '85) .. and studying accountancy at SMU. I gotta mention that Weiwei's rather rich too, he drives an convertible and goes shopping at Fcuk/Topshop and buys $300 jeans for her. Wow.
Here's when my jealousy builds.. and yeah, sister emotions.. it always come together with regret, but I'll leave the whining out this time. But really, I envy what this couple has, and I'm sure there're a lot more ex-sch mates like that too. A stable relationship.. with both parties being rather good lookers, pursuing degrees from a reputable Uni, shop without much of a budget, go on holidays or overseas internship, being driven or having their own cars, etc etc. Ya know, it's like THE perfect life, or at least a great start to adulthood. Tho I get to sleep, eat and live well, and should consider myself fortunate already, they get to sleep better (with a partner?), eat better (dining lavishly at expensive restaurants) and basically, live the high life. I'm fine, but they're just 1 up, and I already feel inferior without having to meet them. Even their blogs are 1 better compared to mine.
Alright, enough of this rubbish. Hopefully I can make things work, return to Singapore in a few years time and lead my dream life too. Meanwhile, it's off to bed where I can literally dream about all that. ***zzz, yeah the pillow is my gf and the air con is Europe's temperate weather***
ah, 1 more thing. SMU. I hate that place.. good school and great girls that are both out of reach. Oh well, since the school rejected me, the girls probably do the same too. -.- SCrReeEWwYeEeewAssSssEMmmmYEeeW
