so. today went for first dance class which was fun until laosai. had to do a lot of tumble-totty things and sprawl on the floor and jump around. and now i must perform in some 'world of dance' concert at the end of the yr. wonders never cease eh. i will come back to singapore all elegant and graceful. snort.
i drew straws to get into the class, AND I GOT IN. finally the luck gods are on my side.
tonight after dinner bummed around and sat in the school centre to study until open mic night started. i love that little performances sprout up around campus all the time. during dinner, an impromptu acappella group just started singing in the dining hall. cool beans.
shirin left early with her new Friend and when me and siyou were walking back we bumped into elusive luke who asked us go eat. (btw. luke is FUNNY SHIT. surname is pang, and email address is... pangsaipang@hotmail. HIYOH. and he... got it when he was 18. LOVE IT LA.) i spit out coffee when i saw. anyway. no bloody food so went to WesShop and he bought... hummus. siao. and buy us chocolate, cos is senior. see. why ppl so nice. i would never think of buying gifts for FOB juniors leh.
then came back to hall and hung out at neighbour's room again. was flipping through robert's chem book and i realised i really miss chem! NMR was damn fun la. oh and he read phantom tollbooth so i was damn happy. IT IS BEST BOOK IN THE WORLD READ PLS THX. and i finally grit my teeth and bonded with hallmates. who are actually quite nice la. we are going to spread a rumour that the pope is coming to wes at the end of the yr. and a surprisingly nice frat boy is gonna print posters and put around school. and save the name 'pope' in his hp. damn exciting la. Project Work.
ok tmr have one hour of classes. what the hell shall i do with myself.
- - - - - -
that was written yesterday cos i geniusly forgot to click publish post. anyway. let us laboriously recount my day again.
i just spent... 6 hours at freaking chinese house. like addict la haha. while everyone was out looking for haps (new word. courtesy of luke.) parties arond campus, me shirin and siyou were sweating over pineapple tarts in hot kitchen with luke andrew and shuwei. so cool right. cannot take it la. cannot. (and luke provided much hokkien relief. jerrine he know same song as you. the ai pia one. shiok.)
but damn fun. the tarts not bad lor. but my hands smell of butter now. i want to eat them.
so-min came by, shirin left with Friend, and we went to andrew's room and did absolutely nothing until 3am. i am not kidding when i say that the time-wasting skills i learnt in jc pale in comparison to what i am doing now. but quite nice la, in a talk with eyes half closed sort of way.
oh. btw, andrew is going to show me a black church sometime in the near future. EXCITE. nat i must tell you all about it after i go ok ok ok omg. so exciting.
before that i had a very unproductive day. class ended at 10.50am, so after lunch i came back to room to indulge my antisocial tendencies for a while, went to meet rhee soo and so-min in their room and had some... GIRL TALK. so-min may be coming to singapore in winter to visit and she may stay with me! so excite. can show korean girls singaporean bi bim bap. funny shit.
then went to foss hill where was joined by thomas and erwin again for some absolutely unproductive time-wasting. i now know that nyen tot is a very bad word in indonesia. pls don't say. consperm lynched one. went for dinner, then after that was surprise party for cara in her dorm lounge which has a freaking foosball table and at which i was at for most of the time i was there.
tmr night got chinese house tea party then some international party after that, themed ANGELS AND DEMONS. so irritating zomg. supposed to wear red and/or white. i will look like flag.

cos i don't wanna read astronomy.
school is such a relief. i love the way everyone now has a purpose and walks around campus so much less aimlessly, and how there is no more pressure to have THE MOST FUN TIME OF YOUR LIFE like during orientation, and how i can walk around campus at night and see solitary ppl reading in their rooms, and how MY BRAIN IS BEING UTILIZED AGAIN. shiokelaosai. i never wanna leave school.
it is so fun walking around school alone and speaking to random ppl for only 2 min before it gets kinda awkward again but now that i DO have somewhere to go, i can excuse myself! it feels... so good.
my astro class is kinda boring, but we get to have night time observations, which are chao cool.
i have my first dance class tmr. hum like siao but this kind of thing must do here la hor.
russian lit class full of angmohs but damn interesting cos professor is insane and speaks without punctuation and has flyaway hair and rides ard school on a bike.
econ is blah.
oh and french damn fun! must watch french film at least once a week LEH.
ok this post damn boring again.
today was damn boring after classes again. went to study on foss hill with dan from romania and shirin from singapore and didn't get much done cos of hippie men singing next to us. then to dinner and then to chinese house again! we are now the sluts from singapore who hang out at singaporean senior's house all the time.
yesterday was a lesson in How To Treat People. an upperclassman that siyou randomly met during the square dance (don't ask) suddenly called her and invited her to dinner at her apartment and asked her to bring along friends.
so we went to her house and she and her 2 roommates, whom we have never seen before, just cooked dinner for us and talked to us small frosh very nicely! one of them is jewish, so got damn nice sweet bread. no drugs or money or sexual favours involved leh! the world where got this kind of thing one? i am... flabbergasted. i don't even smile at hallmates lor, invite strangers to my house for WHAT.
but damn nice la. my heart was warm.
one of them told us story that (apparently) epitomizes the school.
when she was pre-frosh and visiting the school, she say two guys decked out in rock-climbing gear, helmets and harnesses and all climbing a tree in the middle of nowhere. then she asked them why they climbing the tree and they said... 'cos we couldn't find a rock.'
damn funny la. is a damn good answer lor.

must sleep early tonight
my hallmates are talking outside and making conversation and i am sitting here being antisocial. sian leh.
recap of day again cos i dunno what else to say.
woke up late, met shirin jayvan thomas rudi elena at main street, came back with shirin and hung out at hansel's room for a while.
let me sidetrack here for a while. hansel is INSANE. he is... god la. he takes 7 credits per semester, has a student leader position, produces plays and theatre productions, is in 2 acappella groups, completed a POST GRAD PAPER IN FRESHMAN YR, and has published 4 papers. WTF. i... scared la. my inferior, low-grade brain is quaking.
anyway. was tired out from all his energy so went back to room to take a nap, and nice hallmate robert made smoothie for me. how he get blender, i do not know. met siyou for all-campus picnic at foss hill, and was joined by nicholas and nouman.
siyou: eh, down here a lot of jews ah.
hahahaha.
after pleasant dinner, went to watch acappella groups perform. they are DAMN GOOD. got goosebumps one. i wanna join lor but i hum like siao and my voice er, is dried duck voice la so. cannort.
then went to watch some fire-spinning performance, then went to erwin's room (which is bloody air-conditioned) with shirin siyou rudi jayvan thomas where we had the most confusing and lousy games of bridge ever known to man.
apparently in botswana, bridge is played with pre-determined partners who are seated diagonally across from each other. and the winner of the bid shows everyone his cards and becomes a dummy. i.. dunch unnerstand.
me: ok let's play singapore way.rudi won bid so pls choose your partner.
rudi: *points at siyou* I CHOOSE YOU.
hiyoh. IF CAN PLAY LIDDAT IN SINGAPORE I WIN EVERYTIME LA HOR.
and thomas was grooving to trance music in the background. siao la. he is from hk so he knows how to play chor dai dee but no one else knows so... cannot play :(
i need to teach ppl how to play chee goo pak.
then came back and sat in andrew/robert's room for a while watching friends. <3 friends like siao. is blast from home, can hear rachel's voice imitating chandler and jerrine's monica laugh.
ok i need to sleep now cos tmr got 8 hours of school. madness.

cannot sleep again
this morning i called christine in singapore. SHIOK. talk for a while only cos phone bill is monster, but very very happy.
i loff you christine!
today was... neh again.
woke up at 10,
called home,
was bombarded with questions,
went for brunch with roommate,
ate until laosai,
went for useless BILEGATA workshop where many politically correct things were discussed in an open and secure environment that was non-threatening and encouraging,
went to buy many many books for school (v v exciting, that one),
went for dinner where me shirin and siyou regaled some other international students with loser stories uttered completely in singlish (if wanna know story, ask me.),
went back to my room to waste our lives,
sat in sam's room with another sam listening to old school records for a while,
watched star wars for 5 min in robert's room before i got bored of the disgusting ancient special effects,
drove to new haven and back with luke and andrew to fetch anand,
went back to luke's abode to eat SIEW YOKE AND CHAR SIEW AND ROAST DUCK ANAND BROUGHT BACK FROM NY, (this is highlight of day, btw.)
went to andrew's abode to wash down the animal oil with processed sugar in the form of B&Js Chunky Monkey and chinese tea,
came back to find hallmates standing listlessly in the hall then trooped down to alex's room (i can't even remember his face now) to watch almost famous and where i smelt pot for the first time in life cos two boys were DOIN HITS. damn smelly la omg smell like rotten cigarettes.
so that was my blah day. tmr, another blah day of no new friends.
school starts on tues! excite!
i must now describe the happiness that fills me when i bite into the oil-oozing morsel of roast duck meat. actually, cannot describe la. is indescribable. suffice to say, i shiok until fainted.
ok 4.13 am alr i tired until eyeballs roll back to back of head until can see brain. dunno what i just typed. ok night and sorry for boring post again. i am bored and thus boring.

here's something interesting.
my roomie heard that in singapore, when we litter, our tongues are cut off.
my roomie heard that in singapore, when we litter, our tongues are cut off.
meep
i am writing this alone in my room while the majority of the frosh class are gettin it on in various house parties around campus. i... just watched south park and am now listening to bob marley music. HOW COOL AM I, MAN.
i really cannot wait for school to start so there will be no such obligatory friend making and small talk. it is so inane i cannot take it. am exhausted. but. my hall has some interesting ppl so not so bad la. there is boy of same name as me who has brought a full blown stereo with old school records. he told me an interesting thing: if you put a needle in your mouth and scrape it on a record, you can hear the music reverberating in your head. so that's something cool.
ok dunno what i am saying alr. am exhausted but cannot sleep.
so far my days have consisted of waking up late, socializing with random faceless ppl around campus, and going to parties at night, which aren't really fun.
let me tell you how COOL i am la hor. on wed went to hang out at triple A house (asian/asian american house) after dinner and had wine on roof with other seniors which was nice and comfy. after getting a tad buzzed i felt up for some embarrassment so we went to join the rest of the school for SQUARE DANCE. jumping around field at night with sweaty ppl is quite fun, try pls thx. then after that went to psi u, some frat house for BLACKLIGHT PARTY which was sweaty and lame and broken up by Public Safety after 5 minutes. so we ran out and went back to triple A where i got all happy on norwegian vodka and i showed them the wonders of babyanimalz.com and drunk andrew kept asking us to dance so in the end 5 PPL DANCE IN SMALL ROOM TO IPOD MUSIC LA. then after that try to do pushups on floor to sober up but cannot so slept on floor. then woke up at 6am to andrew groaning 'this is fucking uncomfortable' so me and siyou ran back to our dorms cos it was so cold and stupid dew made the grass even colder. if you can beat this cool story, pls tell k thx.
ok that was damn long and boring sorry. i am trying to put off going to bathe as long as possible cos SO FREAKING COLD ZOMG. i put laptop on lap so will be warmer. lucky i not boy if not sperm all kee si liao.
today i did laundry for the first time! exciting. i am adult now.
today was kinda shitty. woke up feeling all gross and homesick. went to hang out at Nicholas' (chile) room with jayvan (jamaica), rudi (botswana) and thomas (hk) and shirin of course. then walked around until dinner. then after dinner bummed around on Foss Hill with random ppl and talked to rachel which FELT DAMN GOOD. then went to play DDR with Nouman for a while, cos i am so cool. and i am cooler cos me and siyou failed at the beginner stage. pwnage. THEN. we go chinese house again to disturb andrew and WE PLAYED SCRABBLE AND DRANK MILO LAH. then i found bottle of brands chicken essence on andrew's table so i drank it. then he said, let's blow bubbles so he went to porch and blew pineapple-scented bubbles for 5 minutes with me and shirin looking on. how to win the sexiness of my life ah. how.
last night was foss cross. i wore neighbours boxers (got whale design one. damn cute.) and lumberjack shirt. and i lent out three of my skirts. all stretch alr damn sad. pictures up soon, if i can be bothered. but a lot, and i mean A LORT of guys actually worked their dresses and leggings, man. fo sho. after that went for post party at triple A again which was kinda lame. BUT. a kind senior obtained a BOTTLE OF YEO'S SOYA MILK FOR ME WHICH I HOARDED LIKE SIAO AH MA. was damn happy for a while la.
btw, i love singaporeans like siao. last night at the post-party at triple A luke showed up and he started talking bout hokkien songs and chengyus (boh heer heh ar hoh) (no fish, prawn also can) and i was damn happy, cos whole day i slang until womit alr.
just found out hallmate has brought with him godfather 1 2 and 3, and friends season 8,9,10. is good stuff. shiokelaosai.
sorry for such a long and boring and disorganized post, but i'm kinda only doing this cos i have nothing better to do and i don't wanna stop cos i'll feel lonely :(. so, i shall focus on things that make me happy. like, school.
i got damn cool classes this sem! am gonna do descriptive astronomy, which is learning bout the planets and galaxies and stars without all that useless technical crap. then i got into 4th sem level french course, which involves a mandatory 3 hr movie screening a week :D. and i got into econ 110, which is practical and which i need for major la. AND i got the most exciting one of all: European Intellectual History to the Renaissance!!!!
