i'm starting to feel that i'm in 'quarter life' crisis because the future suddenly seems so 'scary' to me. i know i need to sort out some time and doing some thinking.. but right now im worrying about the present and nothing. somehow everyone is mugging hard (or perhaps i've been cooping up in my small holborn room that i never realised everyone had started studying from day 1) and have been attending talks and fairs and busy with applications. now?!?!!?
haiya.. i feel like a lost soul looking at them. and sh told me that of she were me, she would just follow the crowd. but im no crowd follwer for i have always knew what i wanted in life. right now.. i think my five year plan is exhausting and im just LOST. 2 pple have already told me that i look "sad" this week. sad? i only know of pple telling me that i look dao in school. oh no. something is wrong. VERY wrong.
still.. worries aside. im still an aspiring hedonist and i'm looking forward to visting oxford and Guy Fawkes' Day! fireworks are so pretty.. but pretty things dont last.

I've been back for almost a month and there's a list of things which i plan to do before i return to Singapore for xmas. strangely, the feeling of looking at the calender and knowing that it's less than 2 more months before i fly home again feels good. it's not that im getting bored of london or that i miss home badly, its just that having something to look forward to makes life happier and more meaningful.
it's second yr into my undergrad course and i realised that i dont have much time left to enjoy myself in uk. right now im trying to balance work, play and budget.. and since its the first term of the academic year, i can afford to play a little more. let me update you a little more of the recent "happenings" in my life.
I've visted Brighton and the Topshop student sales. Did the Harry Ramsden's challenge with shihui and the help of andre at Brighton, and bought a top from Topshop! Watch Guys and Dolls last night with the household. A pity that Patrick Swayze wasn't performing but i guess i wont be able to tell the difference since im sitting at the upper circle. Alton towers (!!) beckons this sat and Oxbridge is also on my list. Emirates stadium has been on the top for a long time and i definitely MUST do it. there are soo many places in the uk to visit, sometimes i really wonder why pple are rushing to do Europe.

london has been pretty much the same as i have left it a few months ago. i guess big cities are less prone to changes.. unlike singapore. i wonder what new building will appear in orchard road when i return in xmas. (yes im going home for xmas!)
life has been rather good.. weather has been very comfortable and work load is starting to pile. im still deciding if i should start to pack my timetable like a typical singaporean with extra classes and cca. but i simply love my free time.. though i have less "emo space" now. im rather indecisive when it comes to such things.. and right now im doing quite a bit of thinking for my future. yikes. time to have another "five year plan" now. the current one is expiring. adulthood and working life dont excite me that much any more.
