I must begin training. For jogging...Reli very embarassing la my progress. If you want, ask me on msn. Everyday jog once, and push myself further every time. Went to look for a phone today. Getting the nokia 5800, touchscreen with 3G. Reli happy I found the deal, cos without the phone, also costs the same for just the sim. But need a letter from my school, so gettin it tomoro. Bun fight tomoro, which is a lot like Hari Gerko/ ECA Day, where all the clubs are vying for your attention. Planning to join the Christian Union, my law society, cheerleading(?), n perhaps Singaporean/M'sian Soc.

Went for dinner with a gang of M'sians, quite fun. Played some drinking game, but its jus a pint of cider so its ok.. We all don drink a lot la. Might wanna go look for some new places to go though. Stag's Head gettin boring..

Looking forward to the Bunfight, cos probably got free food. XP when you stay in self-catered, you tend to like free food a lot. The churches here are pretty nice, giving out free meals quite frequently. Oh ya!! Goin for a free ski trip this sat!! Whee!! Snow! And skiing! Never tried that before.. Hopefully will get someone to go with me.

There are a lot of events goin on, but I havn't really attended many of them. I think I shud, shudn keep mixing wit M'sians all the time. Must meet more ppl.

Must get some boots la..Wedge heel knee-length leather boots. Somwthing like this.

All the girls have at least a pair. And I noticed I don have a lot of their fashion. Like boyfriend, plaid shirts, and vintage sling pouches with a metallic straps. But then again, I dunno if I want to follow their fashion. Mine's a little plain. They like chunky accesories, and lots of patterns. But currently a lot of dark colours, few ppl wear bright red, orange, neon green...Except if its for a neon party, where they fancy dress la..Oh, love this site, collegefashion.net..Recommended to every girl wei.. They have tips on how to organise yr closet, wardrobe staples, how to wear certain things, etc..

Missing everyone back home la...Also the food. Boy, I want my sambal petai, pork noodles, cendol all... Here its quite exp to eat M'sian food, so will have to deal with sandwiches, sandwiches, and more sandwiches for awhile. Thank goodness I kinda like sandwiches wei.. Otherwise I think I'd go crazy.. But also good that Elena and Keane(the Taylorians I hang with) are good cooks. I mean they can cook la, so we usually go to Elena's place to cook together la.. I wanna visit Southampton Common la.. Should try that soon. Tomoro we're going to the docks after Bunfight, to see oif there's any scenery worth taking pics of thre.

Kinda sleepy la..Stupid game.. So, tata!!

~still looking and training

havn had much time to post much. Yesterday went for the christian union's free dinner, which was ok la.. i lyk the CU guy, but the table i was sittin at were all guys, 1 fr iran, 2 fr kazakhstan, n another fr vietnam. conversation was pretty dull cos i think we didn reli understand each other. i realized, for a group to work, either you must all have similar interests, or thre has to be a joker in the group. im reli not much of a joker, but i will try.

havin breakfast now. ASDA's cheap cereal is very horrible..and the milk smells funny..

went to Kinki Karnival last night too, after the dinner. I don understand the socializing la.. its more friendly than I'm used to. I havn reli been myself lately, I think cos I've not been tryin to

meet ppl. So I'm pretty much decided to step out of my comfort zone n go mingle around.

Otherwise, I don think I'll ever get to meet anyone or make any friends. God, help me to be more sociable. I hope I can go fr introvert to extrovert soon. it sucks to be introverted.

On cooking, I fried some haddock yest! a bit salty, but i think if i eat wit bread, won be too bad. i think the ang mohs are movin in today, so hopefully I'll meet my neighbour. ah i took some pics of campus grounds. reli pretty..

nice right..XP and its IN campus. these are actually the same place, there are lyk so many more places lyk this throughout campus.

will post pics of my room later. lazy la now.. XP

~be bold, be brave

I'm here!! 1 dream come true, a thousand million more to go..

I won write a "what I did" post. Those of you who wanna know can skype me or whatever..

Quote the dogs in Up: "Squirrel!"

Hehe.. Just saw a squirrel on the lawn outside my window. And I get birds having breakfast with me too.. Here's a pic.

Looks like a park ain't it? And its JUST OUTSIDE MY WINDOW. Lol. My "garden" is so big, its a park.

Its kinda cold here. Perpetual air con. My room's a mess, which I will tidy up later. Havn found the kitchen or workable bathrooms yet. But the room is very decent, clean when I came in. Feeling a little achey now, I guess its from sleeping in weird positions on the plane. Havn had a good hot meal yet, but hopefully can grabd a good lunch today. Gotta run some errands in campus, will soon find out how to get there. Will update more later. Gotta organise my room now. Tata!

~excitement overcomes me

Change, is something all of us go through on a daily basis. But I don't know if I'm ready to go. If you asked me during my finals if I was ready to go UK, I'd have said yes immediately. Now, I'm not so sure. There's a lot of things and people I'll miss here. Numero uno, family, friends and my dog. Secondly, food. And cheap stuff. I think I'll go insane over there cos I'll keep converting everything to ringgit. LOL. Maximum I can spend, is like 15 pounds=rm100. Ringgit is so weak..

I should start consoling myself.. XP Really looking forward to the life in uni. Hopefully, it'll be fun. And my uni looks awesome. So many facilities, conveniently placed. The independence I'll cherish, probably liberating to be out from under parental surveillance. Really have to start taking care of myself. Thank goodness, I'll at least have a friend going with me. I really wanna get that accent. XP and meet new people. I'l have about a week to assimilate myself, so hopefully, staying alone will not be such a daunting task. Really really hope I'll make some good friends. Real friends at least. Have to remind myself to be open minded and learn to embrace different cultures. I have to not be an outsider anymore.

Coming to that, I think my life is gonna change. I can't possibly stay the way I am, and hope to fit in. No, I think there's a lot of work to be done so that my life there is as comfortable as possible. I mean, I'm not gonna change my core values. Just, perhaps when I come home, I'll be slightly different than before.
