Tomorrow's back to work and down to sanity
should run a bath and then clear up the mess I made before I left here
Try to remind myself that I was happy here
Before I knew that I could get on the plane and fly away
From the road where the cars never stop going through the night
To a life where I can't watch sunset
And take my time
Take up our time


funny, i thought that this was really really applicable to UK. well, it was, but it's more applicable now. watching the sunset from the houseboat, staring up into the night that's truly pitch black, listening to the penguins on the beach, pointing out the little red blinking light that's mars, curled up in bed talking, talking, talking.

i miss australia.

anyway, i'm back now! =) thank God for the barbeque or i'd never survive, i wouldn't have survived UK if not for this trip and i wouldn't survive this trip if not for school. how ironic. =) how ironic, too, mel.
it is finished.

so it's 6am now, i crashed exactly 11 hours ago and have just surfaced. and the first thing i do, take a stupid quiz. thanks, xtine. i truly need to stop this first-things-last scenario from regenerating. haha.

Eunice is your soulmate.
well i certainly count her as one of my closest friends, and she rocks lots (love ya euns =) but i kind of think they meant a guy to be the soulmate thing, right? haha.
You truly love _____.
oh, PLEASE. no, no way. ironically it IS a guy, (very ironic if you even knew the circumstances) but for goodness sake, it couldn't be much further. no way. *winces*
You consider Lucinda your true friend.
totally. go lucinda! =) and a few others of course. which might or might not include you. but too bad, if you aren't sure. i love lucinda XD
You'll remember Yirui for the rest of your life.
yes. hopefully we'll be good friends for that time too, but well, for now, why worry? life's too short for such things.
You secretly think that Pamela is colorful, impulsive, and a total risk taker.
actually, that's complicated. could you repeat the question?
You secretly think that Melissa is loyal and trustworthy to you.
secretly? please, mel is the most wonderful friend and i KNOW she's loyal and trustworthy. and about her changing lovers, uh, no. so off.
You secretly think ____ is shy and nonconfrontational. And that _____ has a hidden internet romance.
LOL! seriously, that's quite funny. i mean i agree partly, but the idea of ____ having a hidden internet romance is hilarious, though not as untrue as it could be. *wink* nah, just kidding.

alright, sun's nearly up.
back to work and down to sanity...

*adapted from diane's blog*

UK IS LOVE.
Two weeks away it feels like the whole world should've changed
But I'm home now
And things still look the same
I think I'll leave it till tomorrow to unpack
Try to forget for one more night
That I'm back in my flat on the road
Where the cars never stop going through the night
To a life where I can't watch sunset
I don't have time
I don't have time

I've still got sand in my shoes
And I can't shake the thought of you
I should get on, forget you
But why would I want to
I know we said goodbye
Anything else would've been confused but I wanna see you again.

okay i attempted to blog about uk just now but just cancelled the whole post. forget it, we all have our own special moments. i don't want to ruin them for you by pushing my view through. and everyone can comment on the activities, we all have our own perspectives. leave it be. basically, a few highlights. =)

eunice and i have fun shopping together. =) yay. and i love my group. xinhui pamela yirui mark. and my roommate. christine. who fell ill =( and missed the ghost tour and a couple of other things.

played catching outside the imperial war museum with the oneone people and a few onethree. diane jovena marianne leqiao nick xiaoxian michelle zhengchen daryl (i think. that's all i can remember now, unfortunately. ) haha. i swear, it was the most fun i've had in four years! seriously. i haven't felt so happy, so relieved or so free since, i don't know when. God that rocked.

took a video of the guys taopok-ing nick. lol. it's one hundred pounds, for anyone who wants it. MUAHAHA. nah, just kidding.

punting completely rocked too. i hadn't expected to laugh that afternoon, but i did, and yeah it was fun. =) nazri was hilarious.

warwick castle was quite alright. went about with eunice and jastine who joined us later. ate lunch with the oneone people and fed the ducks. haha. daniel was hilarious too. good thing i don't like wholemeal and the ducks do. haha.

the fun thing about oxford was not just that it was gorgeous. we stayed in the youth hostel, 6-a-room, me and christine with the onefour girls. christine was feeling sick and i not sleepy, so i went over to eunice's. later she wanted to talk to jared so we went over to the guys room where the we were greeted with a voluntary demonstration of a three-way orgie. *cringes*. i swear, the class guys are sick. haha. but talking was fun. haha.

pizza express was quite nice. yay. then we went to nazri and mark's room to talk.. nearly 20 of us. it was fun. later when alot of people had left, we gave up on zhongjimima and just talked. hm. so it was fun. we finished at 230am. hohoho.

the last night was.. interesting. *shrug* learnt alot about classpolitics, but somehow i don't feel the better for it. and, my kor says the jet lag is always worse coming back than going to uk. hopefully. so it's not just me. =) yay. ohh and AUSTRALIA haha yayyyyyyyy i don't know what i'd do if i didn't have that to look forward to. =) thank God.

okay it's 11.32pm and im dead tired, but i dont want/ dont dare to go to sleep because i'll have to remember what it was like at night in uk, whether too tired to move and both xtine and i falling straight asleep (love ya roommate dear XD) or whether it was talking in jared/jastine /nazri/mark's room(s). it was really fun. and no i don't want to forget because i really loved the time i had there and i felt like i became closer to a lot of people, and then again its the fear of remembering that keeps me awake and refusing the sleep. have you ever had a nightmare of good things? well, you don't want to. haha although i would be perfectly happy to forget the sleeping on the plane. the chairs are uncomfortable shit lol. and i just realised im just babbling to keep myself awake which is not very good. ahha. i could blog something useful and nice about uk but i don't feel like it because everyone else is going to anyway. hohoho! anyway, bottom line, who am i kidding. i dont feel like going to sleep! because the last time it was bedtime i was surrounded by friends chatting. and because the last time i was sleeping on a single bed i wasn't alone. haha. which sounds sick but isn't really if you think about it. considering that nearly our entire class crammed into nazri and mark's room which only has one single and one double bed. but yeah. point noted: this sucks. wish i had selective memory that i could choose to throw away.

oh haha world cup is on now! i think! i have no idea really but leon said that its germany and costa rica so SUPPORT DEUTSCHLAND which is germany for all the people out there who were like me thirteen days ago and didn't know what deutschland stood for haha =) yay
