The last few days was spent walking through every shopping mall that we could find. I walked till my legs ached, and carried my loot till my hands hurt.
But it was all fun. :)
Will be heading for Hua Hin in less than 30 minutes time. Hua Hin will be purely R&R. Hopefully I can find sufficient money to actually go to the spa there.
I can't wait to be home on Saturday!! I miss home already.

My flight for BKK is in less than 8 hours. And for the first time in my life, I am having pre-travel jitters.
This is the first time I am traveling abroad with M. She might be a good friend of mine, but when it comes to traveling buddies I don't know if all will go well. I don't know how she is as a traveling partner and neither does she know how it feels like to travel with me.
I guess there is a first time for everything. Besides the small jitters, I am all ready to take on BKK and its shopping!
i feel :: hopeful ::
Just finished watching the last 2 episodes of "One litre of tears" and I used up almost 3 whole packets of tissue paper.
The tears just kept flowing non-stop, from the start till the end of the 11 episodes. I don't even want to imagine how my eyes will look like tomorrow. I should watch some comedy now and hopefully the swollen eyes will go away.
I also took a very short still video of my very fat hamster. Pardon the amateur standard, but you can view it here
This is what I've been kept busy with these few days.
A very touching show that really made me cry buckets. And this story is an adaptation from a real life story. This makes the whole drama even more real.
I have abalone eyes now, from all the crying.
All these dramas are morphing me into a hermit I can watch the dramas for the entire day.
Sigh~ The wonders of having a break after a crazy semester.
My hamster has made a grand total of 3 attempts to escape from his cage.
His 3rd time being just 10minutes ago. He climbed out of his cage and fell from my desk onto the ground. Thank goodness I managed to catch him and put him back where he belongs.
I swear my heart was beating twice as fast when I saw him climb out of his cage.
Speaking of which, I should get him a bigger cage so that he will have more space run around and I don't have to take him out as often.

In my many years of education, this has never happened.
Our prof gave the entire class of 54 people and additional 30 minutes for the exam paper today. But in actual fact, the extra half hour was only supposed to be given to one girl.
The whole episode was rather bizarre, in my opinion.
1. Half way through the exam, he was holding up a note and walking to everyone's desk to let us know that there is an additional half hour.
2. He was so flustered when he found out that he had accidentally given us additional time and then proceeded to hurriedly collect all the exam papers from us.
3. Since I was sitting right at the first seat, I could hear his conversation with the Chief Invigilator. The poor guy was told off and I must say that the Chief Invigilator was rather rude to him.
Poor guy got told off for not knowing the rules. This is like his first examination in the University and he made a boo boo.
Ah well, the paper is over. And I am at the half way mark of my never ending examinations! Woot woot!
I am taking a break for tonight. Shall continue the war tomorrow.
Ciao!
i feel :: drained ::
I have decided to change my blog address. So that some undesired people will not be encroaching on MY private space.
But all this can wait till after my exams. And I need to think of a nice name for my new blog..
For now...
It's back to my books
I've just sealed my fate for the next 6 months. I hope it is a wise choice.
On another note, studying has been totally inefficient. Progress is slow and nothing much is getting into my head.
And the lack of time is not helping at all.
Gosh, I am already counting down when it hasn't started
I probably had the busiest 2 weeks of my life..
Final project deadlines were enough to keep me up to my neck. And other matters in my family kept me even busier.
I think nobody else has gone through a situation remotely similar to what my family has gone through. Everyone is indeed washed out and exhausted.
Now, it's time to go into full gear to prepare for my exams. This is by far the worst semester I've ever had. I've never felt so unprepared and so unorganised in any of the 4 semesters that I have gone through.
But I am facing major inertia. I don't know where or how to start studying. What an 'excellent' semester this has to be.
