A little break from packing...

I'm in the process of packing, clearing and cleaning out my room. Right now.. it's a bomb site. Potentially fatal.. last night I almost stepped on one of the candle plate that has this rather sharp spike coming out of it. Phew ~~

The weather finally cleared up today. Yesss.. I have a lunch "date" with Tim C. later on today so at least I have something to look forward to. It makes my day seems less boring and purposeless.

This is my last week in Dunedin for this year. Boo....I'll be missing this place and the people here. I had some plans of what I want to do.. places I want to go. I'll have my one last walk in the garden, one last walk along the beach, one last Ceroc classes, last dancing nights at Robbie on Thurs and ISIS on Fri. Right now, I need to get this packing out of the way. So I'll have more free time later on during the week.

Right, break time is over.. back to packing *sob sob*

I.. just had my last exam for my degree on Tuesday afternoon...

and it feels really weird.. so unreal.. but meh.. it's over

still can't believe it tho~

Anyway, I'm going home on the 25th... kinda looking forward to it and kinda not at the same time. I know that I'll be with my parents all the time, which is a good thing since I have not see them since Feb. But I know that I'll get bored after a week or two. Plus, there won't be Ceroc there !! how am I going to survinve not dancing Ceroc for at least a month and a half !!?? Well, I'll just have to find another outlet. I'm thinking..... salsa !!

I went to this Firework Extravaganza last Sat with Ben and Judy (a lady we know from Ceroc).. it was so much fun. They have bon fire, live band, great coffee (I've had the best Chai latte and Mocha) and everything. The firework was awesome and the night ended perfectly with all of us stepping into a pool of cow poo. Yeah.. it was just awesome..

Life is good.. so good

November already.. and soon 2005 will be over

I already had three exams in the last 2 weeks and still, I don't feel like I am in the middle of my exam period at all. 6 and 1/2 days until my last exam for my degree.. oh well, I probably going to have panic attack on the day. Hmm, wonder what it will feel like walking out of that exam and know that that was it... it's all over now

Today, I'm in a very "meh" mood. I can't be bother doing anything. Suppose to be studying but can't be bother. My desk and bed is so messy but can't be bother tidying it up. At least I've learned a few things recently

1. Never study with your significant other.. it just does not work
2. TradeMe is very addictive.. avoid it at all costs
3. Treasure your friends and flatmates.. eventhough they might drive you crazy
4. Staying in the sun too long can make you feel sick
6. Never take clean water, easy-access to food & shelter for granted
7. Most importantly, be thankful for each day

Last night I went to meet World Vision's Philip Maher, an award-winning photojournalist from Canada, with Ben. Philip talked about the famines in wars in places like Somalia, Afghanistan, Southern Sudan, Rwanda, Bosnia and etc. It such an eye opener.. hearing stories of all these horrible things that's going on on the other parts of the world and how organisations are trying to reach out and help those sufferers... it certainly makes you things about your life and how fortunate you are..

Right, Neuropharmacology is calling me.. I should attempt to study since I've been distracted from study for the past few weeks.. MEH !!

Chao~
