it's been long in coming.

I HAVE INTERNET CONNECTIONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

*coughs* Ahem. Sorry I've not replied to anyone yet, this is the first time I've come online since the last time I blogged, which was only like a gazillionbilliontrillion years ago. Apart from random finger spasms, ripped paper and an abused stuff toy, it was no big deal going cold turkey from the cyber world, no big deal at all.

Anyway, I've wireless at home now. The big question is: do I get off my lazy arse and do some much-needed practising, or shall I stay at home and re-acquaint myself with the holy sanctuary aka the internet?

Decisions, decisions. Anyway, here are some photos!

1st row: It's Jo holding the map, and of course that's Vincent in the driver's seat.
2nd row: kitchen and my previously neat bedroom.
3rd row: kitchen window and the view outside, and that splash of colour is my notice board above my desk.

The other pictures were taken on the way to college yesterday. Life in London isn't complete, until you witness a demonstration along Aldwych - on the average of one every three months.

That's Jess, my darling darling ex-coursemates and Daniel.

Last round of pictures for now, the rest are in Jo's phone:

1st row:Belgos with Ash, Lishi and Uncle David
Rest of pictures: Nights out with Jo and Lalang!

And because I feel like doing so, here's a random list:

[0147]. When changing clothes, always draw the curtains.

[0235]. My fellow neighbours must think I'm the neighbour from hell. The neighbour above kept scolding me for not vacuuming the 'common corridor' (ME, not Vincent! He must have showed her his rippling biceps), the neighbour below was furious when the water from our kitchen started leaking from her ceiling when I was washing up, and the same neighbour also caught me throwing litter onto her balcony. Sigh.

[0137]. All of my coursemates are disgustingly clever. I'm almost repulsed.

[1469]. You know the dinner you cooked was an unmitigated disaster when Vincent, The-Man-Who-Eats-Anything, has to add liberal amounts of BBQ and tomato sauce to the food before eating it.

[0511]. I just blew 200quid this week on CDs and books, especially those by Haruki Murakami. Excellent writer.

[0369]. Cab journey from home to school takes 20-25min, where you spend an average of 15min rooted in the same spot. The woes of living in Central London.

[0713]. Cab fare from home to school during off-peak hours only costs a measly 16quid - 50SGD. Ahahahhaahahaha..haha.......ha. *teary-eyed*

Is it just me, or is it bizarrely warm for autumn? I can wear my ACJC/MGS T-shirts and shorts, and walk around at home without feeling cold. Not that I'm complaining! Sigh, the excitement of having my place all wired up is making my thoughts run helter-skelter and I not only sound illogical, I actually feel illogical.

In any case, it's time to get down to some hard work and serious business of downloading anime, manga and movies practising piano and reading some Stravinsky. See you guys on MSN in a few hours!

I will like to spend my days, as though they are my own, which I mostly end up doing in halves, for duty beckons, and I am answering its clarion call. Soon enough! I am also a veteran procrastinator.

fresh monodies

do you make your own fortune?
I got a call from Jo last night, about an accident...
ear-ly in the morn-ing!
i shld be so lucky, lucky lucky lucky.
I'm tempted to write a "I'm that girl who..." post...
coming down and wretched.
ola! onslaught of photos!
contented sigh.
here we go again.
my body clock is attuned to london already.
