chinese new year is coming! my fav festival of the year =) love the feeling of it. love the food. love the company. this is gonna me my first time spending cny away from home. and there's still 2 more years to go. hmm.. but luckily the singaporeans here are enthusiastic about it.. so i still feel very much at home. though im gonna miss out alot on ang pows.. but i guess at this age.. they no longer matter.. that much.
gonna meet bro tonight for steamboat! at least i still got 1 family member to have reunion dinner with. looking forward to it. aim to finish the critical analysis for my reading before noon. but it's 1.26am now and my eyes are tired. sigh. how? half more chapter to go and A4 length of things to crap. sigh.. but like what my friend said.. as long as i hand it in.. the teacher will be very happy. so i guess quality is secondary? haha. but i dont want to waste time doing crappy work.
someone was mentioning it during singsoc cny dinner that cny is supposed to 'welcome the arrival of spring'.. but the weather is only getting colder each day. brrr. hmm.. now i know why pple eat steamboats during cny. you feel the warmth literally as well as in your heart when you eat it with your family. hopefully every one at home will have a good reunion dinner in singapore =)

i discovered yesterday that gummy bear is actually a cartoon character. yes the colourful gummies that we pop into our mouth when we were young. that gummy bear. it has a cartoon serial. and it has a theme song too that goes "gummy bears. bouncing here and there. gummy bears." i was surprised to discover that and was even more surprised that the year 3s watched it. i dont think my brothers grow up watching that. i dont even think they know that gummy bear is a cartoon character. i always thought the oldest was care bears. oh man. i feel young. very young. haha.
as you can tell.. im procrastinating. as always. feeling kinda tired. think i have done enough for the day though i can always do more. plenty of things are waiting to be done but i just haven't found the motivation to carry on. i dont want to push myself yet. i feel kinda jaded. maybe im still jet lagging a little. maybe i havent totally settled down. come and think about it.. im back for less than a week. "settled in" pretty quickly with school and friends.. as a result i havent really rested. maybe i need an undisturbed 10 hour sleep. haha. its quite scary how i settled in so quickly. it's as though i never left.

i've been waking up at 4.30am the past few days. i hate jet lags. they screw up biological clocks and makes you feel tired and hungry at weird times. oh well.. im back to school again. lots of work to catch up, lots of adjusting to do and not to forget.. the january sales! went shopping with hf today and i bought a fcuk top for 15 pounds and a pair of mango jeans for 9 pounds! happiness. i love buying jeans in london coz the sizes fit me much better and the length is perfect! shopping is good exercise. for both the body and soul.
helped bro with his experiment on muscles reflex today. he was happily 'electrocuting' me and repeated the experiment to ensure that his results was perfect. i was so scared initially as bro had to read the instructions while attaching the wires to the stick on pads on my body. 'red with blue and green to the side'. i could have died in his hands. haha. but it was pretty fun hanging out in the lab with my bro and being the subject of his experiment. scaring each other while he conducted the experiment and having lunch together at crispy duck. nice. i'm blessed to have family here with me in london. think im gonna be quite sad next year when he's gone.
gonna catch up with work. shall blog again. the weather these days are surprisingly warm. which is a good thing. ttfn.

it has been raining non stop these few days. i miss the sun. i hope i get to enjoy a day of sunshine before i go back to cold, dark and gloomy london. (im referring only to the weather) i dont know how cold it is now over there.. i hope i dont fall ill or freeze to death when i return.
gonna meet up with my bestest cuz/buddy today. realised i havent had a proper conversation with her since i got back. hope dinner and catching up later would be good. i hope im not missing out much in london.. but i dont think many would realise that im not around. im insignificant and keeps a low profile. as always. haha. hmm.. im done with slacking. it's getting abit boring. haha. i think its time to start reading before i become stupid. wait. i already am. haha.

im staying up to watch wigan vs arsenal. 2 more hours to go. i dont know if i can 'last' for so long. i probably end up dozing off in front of the tv. i should probably watch the match since i dont get much chances to watch live matches in uk. and it has been quite a while since i stayed up to watch a match. hate going to pubs to watch matches. i cant stand cigarette smell and i dont exactly like the taste of beer.
arsenal hasnt been playing their best lately. die hard soccer fans should know how it feels like when they stay up for a match and their team disappoints them. it really sux. hope arsenal thrashes wigan today. havent watched a high scoring match for a long time.
sorry for blogging about soccer. coz i dont like to blog too personal stuffs. those who know me well enough should know. shall update again. ttfn.
