2nd wk of exams...
had 2 papers last wk, econs and accounting, left with finance paper on thurs, followed by another sucky paper next mon...but since accounting paper ended, i've been stuck in the post-exam mood alr...been going out everyday, shop, eat and all...life is good man...spent a lot of money too..oops...i'm super worried about my luggage weight now...i've got tons of things to bring back, but not enough weight to accomodate it all...juz hope the airport attendant is in a terrific mood that day, and will take pity on a poor student like me, allowing me to go overweight on both my check-in and hand carry luggage too!! heh...
i discovered this wonderful games shop yst...they had this very unique jigsaw puzzle. the main picture was a 'clue' to the actual picture of the jigsaw, so u'll only find out how it looks like after u're done pieceing them all together...difficulty level juz increased by a huge notch, but it's really unusual compared to the normal jigsaws ard. in addition, the shop had loads of card games!! tons & tons of them, i was so tempted to buy everything in the shop!!! they had poker cards too!! i love their variety!!! they had patterns of egypt, and a lot of arty designs, but the price was just way out of budget...i think i'll go order them online instead.
tdy, i went to the fish market!!! i really miss the place, alright, not the place, the FOOD!! haha...lisa & her sis were going down, so i juz tagged along...we had this huge plate of salmon sashimi...oh man, it was delicious!!! there were about 30 thick fat slices on the plate, and it cost about $15 only!!! yummy...but we had to protect them from the seagulls nearby. from past experience, the birds will juz swoop past and snatch the salmon away, cunning creatures...haha...but they're gourmets too.
besides salmon, we had grilled barramundi, oysters and prawns!! this is by far, the most satisfying meal i've had in a damn long while!! everything was really fresh, and the prawns. oh man, looks were so deceiving. we were sitting by the sea, with the sun hitting down on us. and when we finally moved on to the prawns, they were still so nice and cold, it was so refreshing. i practically ate non-stop for about 45 mins, and didn't even feel bloated from it all. i could juz go on eating the prawns forever. and the prawns were juz boiled prawns, no spice to add any flavour to it. i feel like going down there again this weekend b4 i come back...haha, i'll see who i can drag along with me this time. hee hee :)
lisa & her sis come to the fish market so often, they even knew wad extra stuff to bring along. while i brought myself only, they were experienced enough to bring along tissue, drinks, cups and soy sauce & wasabi for the sashimi!!! lol...i take my hat off to them...i'll know what to bring next time too!! and i'll da pao the prawns & salmon back the next round...i regret living so far away from them, and the city!! haha...i ate so much for lunch, my stomach still full until now. dinner really paled in comparison to lunch!! din haf appetite for it anyway...haha :)
eventful days...if only everyday was spent like this...sg shud really consider starting something similar, i'll be their faithful patron....haha...oh ya, and a smoothie branch. smoothie & drinks outlets here are huge, there's at least 1 outlet in every shopping centre...i've been hooked onto the smoothies for the past 2 weeks? i buy a drink from there almost everyday. they sell it at $1 discount if u go b4 10.30am, so tt's my only incentive to get up early now...sound like a true blue piggy...i'm goin to miss it back in sg...haiz...
tt's abt it for now...better start doing some serious revision from tmr onwards...been slacking too much the past few days...can't afford to get complacent...heh...can't wait for thurs to be over, then i can really relax!!! shop shop shop!!! argh, i can't wait!!
sch's officially over now...can't believe i've completed a SEMESTER of uni...such a sense of accomplishment! ha ha, and now the exams are juz round the corner to round things up...
though exam's round the corner, there's juz no examination mood going on here. no one seems anxious or panicky yet...and i'm beginning to take it easy too in such a relaxed environment. so unlike the studious env back home when everyone starts revision a few wks b4 the actual papers...the only events going on related to exams are the noise curfews imposed & the late night suppers available on selective nights...pretty pathetic if you ask me. but no complains, haha, stress-free environment...
last wk's weather was fantastic, coolings, windy breezes, minimal sunshine...ah, but it's history now...the sun came back tdy...oh man...i hope summer never comes!! whenever there's heat, there's flies!!! they disappeared, but reappeared tdy!! oh man...my face gets molested by them all the time...i know i'm pretty, but they din have to be so sticky...ha ha :)
was just thinking abt the time diff thing tdy...when i return, i'll be having dinner when everyone's having lunch!! haha...tt means i'll be having 4 meals a day instead of 3 :) and i'll be the first to get out of bed, maybe initially only...haha, tt's so rare!! i'll jump on my mum's & sis's bed to wake them up!! lol...haha, they'll be half-dead while i'm fully awake...
yup, juz a quick update...will update again, prob aft exams?
