doing better!
25th August.
Today went so much better than the rest of the week. I totally had no fixed plans for today other than to go for classes and meet my coordinator. So kinda felt a little unsettled. But as the day went by, I told this SMU girl abt how lonely I felt in Vildanden (where I stay) and she happily invited me to join her and the SMU pple for lunch. Kinda happy abt that but had to see my coordinator – so no go. Elgin (this other NUS dude) offered me a sandwich of his cause I was out of bread – jolly ecent of him. I’ll offer him a sandwich too tmr.
We made plans to go to Stockholm this weekend! Awesome! Dunno if I’ll go down with u melia… can we go to Copenhagen instead? I haven’t really explored it and it’ll be cheaper to go there. Heh.
Went to the Biology and Animal Physiology house today to try to see my lecturer and buio coordinator – to no result. They weren’t in. but ah well, I’ll go extra early tmr. And I’m all set for lunch tmr! I have made pasta to bring to skl. And sauce to last me at least 3 meals too! Not bad tasting I feel. Plus I did it all alone. Ma u’d have sighed seeing me burn the garlic that I tried frying – not once, but twice. After the 2nd time on high heat, I finally figured out the problem. The kitchen was a little smoky after that. Oops. Met a girl who lives in my coridoor and yup, she confirmed that this coridoor is damn dead. But the students who live on A3 are nice! And warm. So I’ll go chill there more often. That kinda was a really comfortable part of my day – hanging out cooking rice and eating there. I like it there. Maybe they’ll give me a key!
I didn’t cry that much today – only when I talked to my parents and when nai nai (granny) called. Shld I talk to them less? I dunno…hmm.. ah well, I love u guys! Thanks for watching out for me. I shall upload pictures soon! This sounds so needy but really.. thanks for all the encouragement. Means a lot to me.
And I know some of u will think that this is hog wash but ah well, it’s my opinion. Most of u know that I’ve been kinda lost religion wise. Well, yeah, I guess in my desperation, I’ve come back to God. I wish that it were a more earth shattering revelation. But, it’s been just a week and I feel a lot less homesick. I think without God, this week would’ve been a lot worse. So this is just to encourage all u peps (especially my parents) out there who have been fretting over my lack of faith. Yup, it’s back. Might not have been in the way I would have wanted it, but then again, having faith is better than not having faith.
I can just see anirudh (my friend from hall – for u guys who don’t know him) quoting some Religion-evolution thing about why I’m a perfect example of why pple need to believe in a god. Ah well, thks for the good advice today dei, I didn’t think of it as a novel experience that I’d have once in a life time.
Ma and Dad! I didn’t know how much I love u guys till now! Please give nai a hug for me! Buy her an international calling card yah? They sell loads of them in little India – just ask the guy for the card with the best mileage.
Oh man, all u guys! Get skype! Then I can talk to u guys more often. I love talking to my mum because she’s all practical and helps me get moving in the right direction – which helps take my mind off impractical bawlish stuff and dad I love u for making me feel so taken care of. I never knew that I could be THIS weepy and soppy. Yish. JOSHUA NG! thank u so much for checking on me ah. I’m gg to Stockholm this week. Will try to take some time away from the peps in Stockholm to check out floorball stick prices. Dad and mum will prob go to Stockholm in dec so we can get the sticks then I guess. I cannot imagine luggin sticks back from there.
Big hug to the Citykids teachers who’ve been emailing me. I’m so touched! Please email me more yah. I love getting long letters. BTW, my address is Allingavag 7:113 22734 Lund, Sweden. My phone number is .. ok I can’t remember. But it’s on my msn nickname. Please tell my buzz gp kids that I miss them! Hope that the new Gan Eng Seng boy is doing well.
Anyway, on a different note, watched parts of A Knight’s Tale and…IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE here! Can u imagine that? In the mood for love! In Cantonese! In Sweden. On man. This other polish girl who lives in a3 has watched the show lotsa times too! The world is so odd. I know an Indian and a polish who’ve loved a Cantonese show. Anyway, isn’t that show beautiful and scary too? I’m sure that there are pple who love each other and are so unwilling to say it – and miss out on love. I hope that I don’t qualify for that category! Heh. Tired and need to see my coordinator at 830 tmr! Ciao!
Learnt this from some Spanish pple at a bbq 2 nights ago – Mi yamo Lydia (my name is Lydia) and Bi Bo Vildanden ( I live in vildanden – the name of my hostel which means – the wild duck. Ha! The wild duck!) ok. Namarie all!.
