The Cutest Thing in The World





My project has gone horrible/wrong. makes me want to drill through my own head with a broken bottle. will definitely try and just get a proper job now. but given the current climate, I'm not sure how easy that's going to be - but thanking god for small mercies, I'm glad we don't live in South Korea. How is A10S doing these days? - the service industries are all taking a real kicking in London. Most people seem to be losing, or are about to lose their jobs. Anyway in these dark times, there's nothing like making friends with somebody else's cat to cheer you up.

if i could

i would wish my trip away. i would stay in singapore and do a million things that i like and take a good break free from the pressures i didnt deserve in the first place. i tried to jog the negative feelings away but it didn't work, and i still have to go through next week.

In my whole life, i've worked towards my own opportunities and i've planned my paths based on things that i feel strongly for whether its something thought through or just a gut feeling. So when anything bad happens in that process, i might grumble but i always know that its a consequence of something that i chose to put myself through, and for that, i always look back and i don't remember ever regretting a single choice i've made. i hate that people can think that i need them to achieve that kind of happiness.

space jacker like game.

hello. i have made this sort of game thing. We have hidden things all over london. When people find them they text them to a map and it spells out a phrase. I don't think i can say anymore than that as apparently there is an army of geeks roaming the internet, trying to crack this puzzle. Rachelle, there is an american apparel in camden now. If you tell me what you want I'll go in and buy it and post it to you. Honestly - it's no trouble - going in that shop is a real pleasure. like looking at porn.

the beauty of an afternoon

i finally experienced it today at the esplanade :) The feeling of having nothing to do !



And I didnt even see it coming. This noon, I arrived an hour late in sch cos i overslept being my silly stressed self. and only had 15 mins of discussion with the thesis gang. And then the session ended and it felt abit strange.. and when i reached esplanade, around haagan dazs..

FREEDOM!!! i was suddenly so happy i wanted to sit down at a cafe to pig on ice cream and cake alone. I think it was the smell of the
smell of cookies and aromatherapy at esplanade that reminded me (u know those shopes hehe) I think I havent felt this normal feeling of calmness since july. And I haven't had the opportunity of bumming around town alone for really really long too. Of course technically theres alot to be done and work has only just started.. but ok at least it was off my mind for an afternoon!

I really missed you, esplanade! ;)
