haha actually the hol's only friday-sunday, but i've decided to declare my week off and go travel around hehe. just one more hour of school to go through and it'll be the "weekend"! yayys (:
spent the previous weekend going karaoke and science museum in daejeon. couldn't make it to geongju due to the stupid rain on sunday. but it's ok, coz this week's weather looks good! yayness. have recovered from my flu already too so all looks good.
i've finished watching love at aegean sea! the one with chae rim and su you peng. (yeah i know it's a really really old show haha) greece looks sooo pretty! i wanna go there now (: one day. i will.
ok gotta go prepare for class and my longlong weekend already!
bought an adidas jacket over the weekend! my first one yays (: it's black with neon pink stripes hahah (:
weekend was fun! went sightseeing at insadong, itaewon and 63 city (where they filmed my girl!) buffet lunch at supposedly the best buffet in korea as celebratory lunch for both our bdays (: the hostel was bad though, infested by mosquitoes coz apparently we didn't close the netting properly. kept waking up to kill them. it's damn irritating you know! esp when they buzz around ur ear. rarrrs.
and becoz ive been lacking sleep and also the stupid cold weather, im kinda down with flu. just a mild one, hopefully it doesn't get any worse. shall hide in my room today after my lessons. only 2 hour lessons today! yay (: but got abit of admin stuff to settle.
my snacks stash is depleting exponentially. i keep getting hungry at night for no reason! grr. anyway i bought cup noodles in case i get really hungry haha, xin la mian! haven't tried it yet. and some gummies + skittles. coz i think all the cookies i've been eating every morning are making me heaty. not good.
my lappie has been threatening to crash, even after changing to windows 7, so i think i gotta go hunt for a netbook or smth over the weekend. to check out prices and see what there is around. stupid comp. well, i guess you have served me well HAHA. i especially like the keyboard! and the sound system. but you're old. (although you still look pretty new)
am going around seoul for the weekend again. and im going to hunt for a track suit! coz i re-watched hana kimi and saw all the nice track suits wuchun was wearing hahah. retarded. but it'll come in useful here! it's like..20degrees around here already? according to my buddy it's fall season, but i don't see any orange/red leaves yet haha. but prolly in like 2 weeks or so bah.
i bought so many clothes i dunno how im going to bring them back. oh dear. plus if i have an extra comp, it's additional weight. bleahs. and not to mention all the rubbish cosmetics. it's time to stop shopping and go sightseeing..mm..AFTER this weekend hahahhs. it's getting colder by the week though, maybe i'll get a nice looking jacket for fall YAY (:
have been having the weirdest dreams about people i haven't met in the longest time. the most recent one being set as a percussion ensemble concert, and the backdrop were of like..beauty pageant girls HAHA. and the person i haven't met for a longlong time didn't rmb me =( which suddenly led me to think that maybe i am that forgettable hmm.
omg mass spent at etude house and tony moly today i can't believe it! (okay i know i planned alr, but didn't know it amounted to that much! hahas) spent 120bucks, but it ain't exactly alot since i bought many many things that can be used for long long time (: it's the beginning of my soon-to-grow makeup stash, with proper tools like brushes! yay! always wanted to learn how to use them properly and i can now! =)
going down to daejeon for the weekend! with amusement parks and observatories, seems like a pretty cool weekend itinerary (: also marks the end of my 3rd week in korea. it's been so long already! can't believe it.
开心的人这世界不多 反正谁要强求就苦了自己
haha maybe that's why im the few of the 开心的人,coz i never 强求 (: but that's the way how life should be lived no? why be so hard on yourself? you only live your life once, enjoy it! (i mean of course that has to come with hardwork too becoz no study=crappy grades=no grad cert=no work=no money=cannot enjoy life) it's a vicious cycle! everything must 适可而止. oh man why am i speaking in chinese.
ANYWAY point is. it's time to start studying, after this weekend. because i have 2 weeks of work/notes to clear, and some assignments to do too. at least i've stop watching shows at an alarming rate, and have resorted to watching youtube videos (:
i think i'll be a tour leader or makeup artist in the future! hmm could go search for related courses back in singapore (: anybody (that's you, sansan!) wanna join in?
i actually quite like going back to read my past entries when i have time (or have nth better to do). records of all my past experiences from jc till now, that's more than 5 years already! but somehow, every incident that occurred seem so fresh in my mind, i can almost see it happening as i read.
of all the things that happened, i think the most memorable ones were of t38. there were both happy and sad memories, so i didn't know whether to put a smiley or a frowney to that haha. i always thought it was nice that we're still pretty close, at least for our own bunch. you know you were special, and you still are (: i don't know how long these friendships will last, but if it was to be what i dreamed of, then it's forever and ever..but i suppose over the last two years, things have changed already.
band! i mean like duh. they were the only two things in my jc life hahah. what else right. SYF days were mad, especially the detestable two bars in heart and voice! the two bars that we practiced every single sectionals, got many scoldings for and even made hazel and i cry over. sickening two bars. haha but im glad it went well in the end (: not forgetting the dinners in town and pool sessions, or just sitting down with you and having nice chats (:
ok i conclude ive got too much time in dorm that i keep thinking about random stuff. it's time i stop thinking about the past and concentrate on the present. like reading up on my schwork and checking reviews for etude house products! hahhas. am getting them tmr YAY
went to do alien registration today, and searched high and low for tony moly! but it was nowhere to be found =( think i'll prolly go back to sinchon/myeongdong on fri coz it's the only place i know with the shop. bleahs. getting hooked onto cosmetics/skincare products is baddd. and it doesn't help that the stuff here are dirt cheap haha. stuff from face shop, missha, etude house and tony moly! and they always always give lotsa freebies when u buy stuff which means free face masks =)
will update with all the stuff i bought soon yayyy (:
it's nice to know pple think bout me (: being overseas lets me see how important i am to some people, and how much i matter to them. totally brings a smile to my face (: sorry to all those whose 21st birthdays im missing =(
doesn't it seem like i am just another random person u got to know and will probably forget about after a lil' while? i know for one, that i am in no way special. just the most common person you can find off the street, the jack-of-all-traits and master of none. haha fine i have an inferiority complex. but then again, who cares?
and deep down inside, i wonder if i matter to you anymore. or did i even ever matter. 一直以为我是那个拿得起放得下的人,但直到现在才知道事实并非如此

lessons are finally starting proper, with lesson plans and assignment deadlines set. i like my "music of the world" module (: american lecturer, and really quite interesting. rather than the boring chemistry modules. bleah.
gonna start getting busy with school..have got readings to do too (for the music class). good thing im not taking language classes! if not that's another 10hrs of class per week. madness. although i think it'd be good to go for that. just that it's a few hundred bucks and i dun think it's really worth it. still haven't done my alien registration too..going this wednesday.
discovery: koreans LOVE to brush their teeth. anywhere, everywhere. any toilets, be it in school or shopping malls, i'll always see some korean brushing her teeth! don't they know it's bad for their teeth? hmm.

went for International Opening Party (IOP) yest (: it's a party for all the exchange students organized by SNU buddies yay! it was quite crazy, with Koreans being able to drink as much as Caucasians. so yeah they got kinda loud and rowdy as the party went on, and the "singapore table" was damn quiet and stuff haha. still drank abit, but i think we were the only table which actually ordered food! (well it's free, might as well right haha)
school hasn't been too bad, just a tad boring. but school has never been fun no? hahaha. the modules here sound tougher than those over at NUS though..hopefully it won't turn out TOO bad. not sure if i'll be able to go Jeju for my bday since midterms are exactly the week after that =(
had a free day yest, and spent the entire day watching 爱上千金美眉 and finished it hahaha. one serial in a day! amazing. oh but it only had 13 episodes la haha. gonna go bathe and get changed, it's shopping day (:
oh and i re-watched 蔷薇之恋 like for the 3rd time and found a new nice song! it's 伤口-张智成 (: wonder why i never noticed it before hmm.. click here for the song (:
遗憾昨日的笑容无法出现在今天的脸上 那些模样 历经沧桑 宁愿提醒自己 该如何学习遗忘

finished 2nd day of school without much excitement. am glad i settled most of my admin stuff already, besides student card and alien registration. (yes im an alien in korea!) got a korean phone already too so at least im contactable now (:
it's been a journey of discovery. doing things all by myself, setting up bank accounts and getting all the required documents. running back and forth between buildings trying to find the right office. asking for directions to classroom blocks (coz snu has like super little campus maps around). at least the weather's nice so it doesn't feel all that bad. and of course with some help from my korean buddy =)
tmr's the last day of school for the week, with lessons 1-6. then it'll be international opening party for the exchange students on friday night, and shopping weekend! yayyyys (: it's already getting cold here..pretty early imo. i wonder how winter will be like hmm..not sure if my thin blanket's gonna last me through that too. oh well shall see how.
