Mapping it
Tis tragical...i lost my cf card...sobz. Can't find it anywhere. I brought it home last sunday and due to being overworked that day...i wuz in a complete catatonic state...so yeah i don't remember where i last left my cf card...searched everywhere for it...prayed real hard so let's hope it resurfaces soon. Man...it's 60 bucks, don't want to go and pay for another.
Sigh...expenses have been rather high...and i didn't even go shopping yet!!! Rawr...i have many shopping trips planned out with people...so yes, juz waiting for that paycheck:)
So yes, finally an off day...it's time for swee to sit down and plan her little life. I think it's really time to start focusing on what i really truly want, and to stop being the Jack of all trades. As my mum can truly attest to it...im not superman, and she constantly reminds me tt...yes i know... Just tt being me...im one greedy pig who wants everything and finds it hard to fully let go of something. There are always hidden extra strings attached...im always gone but never truly...just lurking on the standby. Darn it. I hate goodbyes lah.
I don't feel like gg for 0 week in all honesty. Oh well, but is it impt? Come to think of it I didn't really want to go for union camp either..hmmm...but yeah...i guess i would go in the end due to external pressure.
Need to start mapping it out. Where to go, which course take...where to go man from here...do i still intend to work or not...my bosses seem to need people leh...i feel inclined to stay...do i still want to keep singing? Maybe being the audience isn't so bad. sigh...i need to sit down and start thinking seriously abt everything..and of course find my cf card. Oh yes and did i mention? i also lost one of the earrings my mum gave me..eeps and it's diamond studded...die die...yes..so swee needs to do something abt everything. See ya when she figures it all out:)

union camp 06
A week has passed and yes many things have changed, cometh and gone. Union camp wuz a refreshing little peak in my relatively humdrum sort of life. It makes me feel like hey, uni life may not be tt bad after all. Ok ok so there wuz the initial need to adjust to certain changes...the cheering in hokkien and chinese, the absolute need to eradicate all traces of angmoh pai and re-branding oneself as a fully certified ah beng or lian for the sake of our group's pride:) Im from Pai kia!! Haha.
From the very first mandrin game we played apprehensively together, to the crazy night walk which relied on trust as we were blindfolded, to the soap, water and mud we braved together, crazy hokkien cheers tt required psycho-motor skills, to fright night with their admirable ghouls, war games where we were not exactly victorious on the field but in our total 'wu-sehness' to the lovely hightlight of secret pal night...bonding together in meeting a certain someone's sp...ahem. Haha... I speak in all honesty, I never knew so much could be bought with $45.
Indeed, it takes time to find true friendship and 5 days may be a little too short, but it has certainly ignited the little spark. See you guys soon tmr and in the subsequent days of our uni life.

A mosque which we past by on the way.
Haha, this is hilarious, we decided to eat at this egyptian place but they didn't have a table then...so being adventurous we tried sitting on the carpets. Then er...decided it may be a tad too dirty...could be lice.
Joey took this shot:) Haha...not too bad.
