today's the 1st day of autumn. haven't really noticed if there's an increase in leaves falling and there isn't any significant drop in temperature yet. maybe the difference will become more apparent towards the night.
sch has started, and my sickness has followed me here. i was pretty lucky at the customs. the officers were overwhelmed by the sheer volume, she let me pass after questioning me about bringing in meat & poultry. spent the next 2 days unpacking all my boxes & luggages. my new room is much spacious compared to the old one, really really heaps of space available. i evn have a section of my cupboard where i can display all my sunglasses & watches and another section mainly to keep my bags. and it's so convenient to have the bathroom attached to the room, i no longer have to bring all my bathing equipment along with me each time i wanna go bathe anymore.
i went to the doc's yst, and she gave me a 3rd round of medication. my neighbour was really nice, she offered to make me porridge to eat, seeing how sickly i looked. she evn walked across to macq centre to buy the ingredients for me!! i'm so thankful for her!!
i'm planning to buy a tv this wkend. not tt aussie tv has anything to shout about, but at least it can inject some live into the room. more so since i'm not paying for the electrical bills!! lol :) apparently there's this guy who has cable tv in his room, and he also upgraded his bed to a queen-sized bed, complete with air-con!! really knows how to enjoy life!!
though sch's juz started, i can't wait for it to end alr!!!

i've finished 1 round of antibiotics & all the med given by the doc yst-i assumed my condition should have improved. but i'm feeling worse than i did yst! the fever's back, my voice is permeated with masculinity; thank goodness the flu is gone.
i'm so afraid now they won't let me go on the plane back to syd. they might suspect i've got SARS or bird flu and refuse to let me board! i'll be running to the doc's soon for another consultation session...hopefully he's some wonder pills which will cure me in no time!!

i've fallen sick b4 cny! such good luck...
it started with fever, which i thot would blow over in no time. evn made plans for the rest of the wk...but the fever seems like a pendulum bob, back & forth, on & off...all bad things strike at the same time; my throat is swollen too.
i finally went to the doc's this afternoon aft persistent nagging from my parents. evn with the slimmest of chances, i hope to recover in time for cny, for it's delicious offerings! for the moment, i've got to abstain from certain food, esp pineapple tarts (my fav!) and be less adventurous with what i eat...
anw, despite the physical state, i still made a visit to the hairdresser's. juz fulfilling the vain side of me to want to look good in cny photos. haha :)
the tv's my best fren now. i'm 90% a couch potato alr. doubt i'll have much difficulty reciting the programmes schedule out..
anyway, it's cny eve tmr alr...gosh, time flies by so quickly...happy CNY

the past few wks both flew & crawled by. went to JB on a couple more occasions, visited chinatown-this yr's seems to be less interesting than previous years-, a bit of fishing, roller-blading...alright, it's nothing too significant actually, except for one. i went back to mg aft 5 years? i sound old alr.
tues afternoon, me & serene went back to mg dressed in our mg uniforms, pretending to be J1s coming back to visit the teachers. we hardly changed much, the same old self in the faded uni. haha...the delightful part came when one of the teachers really took us for J1s!! it was such a flattering moment! luckily we din run into any teachers who would recognise us.
the sch campus changed a fair bit. there's a new wing compound built, the sci labs are converted to classrooms, classrooms are extended, the library's grown smaller but classier. oh ya, the librarian was sleeping at her chair when we snuck inside! lol...we shud have taken a pic of her slacking on the job!! they built 2 additional squash & tennis courts!! argh...they shud have done it earlier when we were there!! then we could both slack during training when the coach is busy in the other courts!! and they have a new running track now, the students no longer have to run along the muddy grass like we used to...
we covered almost the entire compound, with the exception of the staff room. b4 we left, serene purposedly waited at the pick up concourse area for me to drive ard to fetch her, in hope of confusing some parents who might notice that an mg girl is driving a car! lol :) but sadly, no one lived up to our expectations. we couldn't stop laughing at ourselves in the car...hahaha
1 more wk left to cny...sigh, i'm looking forward to it, but yet not looking forward to it at the same time. and time seems to be running out. there're so many things i want to do, keep telling myself to do. and whether it's procrastination or other similar reasons, eventually they'll nv get done. it's so sad, i've less than 3 wks left of my 3 months break!!! argh...
there is too little spare time left for me or others to play ard with..
if it were me, i won't have done things this way. time is a gd measurement for a lot of things...
