Hmm actually I think I've only lost alot of butt mass, the butt portion of my jeans are damn baggy now D: Why am I telling you guys all of this? I DUNNO but my skinnies aren't skinny anymore and I'm sad!! Maybe I should tumble-dry them so they'd shrink... hahaha omg INGENIOUS

1:30 AM

The HMVs here are AMAZING. They really carry everything, the shops are so huge you could wander about inside for hours!

Met becca today :D

Meeting sarahtai tmr :D

And think I'm getting my blackberry! Haha it's a lower-end bb curve but WHOCARES I get it free, with 600 mins 500 texts unlimited internet and unlimited data plan, for 25pounds a month! Though I'd have to pay through the months I come back to s'pore... haha oh the perks of being on scholarship.

10:04 PM

Omg I *think* I lost weight! :D

Was trying out size 8 skinny jeans and they were baggy on me :D and all my pants and jeans are falling off me, even my stupid belts are too loose to hold them up/ stay on my waist.. AND I wear size 8 shirts now! Whoohoo! I rock. Either that or I've been buying clothes 1-2 sizes too big for myself all along :S which COULD happen too....

Okay damn tired now I've been walking since morning in my heeled boots, and my feet hurt so bad they're numb ): And I haven't done homework for tmr ): Sigh. Law school sucks, who the hell said going overseas was much more relaxed??

7:49 PM

Aaaaand the first lse singaporean couple have just got together! Haha. In my hall. Looks like life is only going to get lonelier ):

Haha my crim law tutor rocks, he's so cool in a badass way. This lesson had about 5 f words, including one that went "my ex-girlfriend used to sleepwalk.. well, she was f*king mental!" and all our eyes went O.O And he's young, goodlooking, very smart (he teaches at oxford and parttime here) and rich (his shoes are yves saints laurent and his belt is ted baker, according to yiming and shimin). HAHA okay yes we spent the lesson perving at our tutor.

Am dreading lessons tmr.

- in London I find myself holding my breath more often than not.. the air's constantly polluted with cigarette smoke :S

5:45 PM

Okay a very quick update on my life!

1. I BOUGHT MY DOC MARTEN BOOTS :D have I mentioned that already? I can't remember. But yeah can't wait for them to come!! They aren't the weird sorts it like normal boots lah! Um hopefully haha.

2. Yesterday was a msian girl's bday, so we all had dinner together at Nandos. Then a few of us bought some drinks and went back to the hall to play cards. Peter got out his FHM poker cards -.- You can imagine the convo:
- guy: "OMG I will trade my Ace for your 7!! The girl damn hot!!"
-"shit this is damn distracting all I can see are legs"

3. Yeah I'm going back in dec, I booked my flight on the freakin SQ already, bloody expensive shit, so I hope everyone will be around!!! :D Dun make me waste my scholarship $$, cos my parents only wanna sponsor half of it.

4. I HAVE HOMEWORK DUE ON MONDAY AND I HAVENT STARTED OH NO D:

5. Jia and I went to have dimsum at chinatown! Not too bad haha but expensive ): And we ordered wayyy too much so we are super full. Their xiao long bao taste more like siewmai -.- No soup one. Sigh.

6. I BOUGHT VITASOY FROM CHINATOWN :D It rocks! I didn't even particularly like vitasoy in Singapore, but PLEASE DONT TAKE VITASOY FOR GRANTED OKAY. When you don't have it you'll miss it.

7. The days are ending very early already ): Dalight savings starts tmr! One extra hour to sleep in haha

You didn't have to do it but you did it to say
That you didn't have to do it but you would anyway;

11:23 PM

Wicked was gooood (: The songs were good and the singers were all damn good! And the set was absolutely awesome. At first we had some rather terrible seats, but after the intermission we quickly moved forwards :P HAHA kiasu singaporeans!

But the whole time before that I was such a DDPx 2 (dian deng pao x2, cos we had 5 people for dinner and....) ): Haha OHWELL. I must start getting used to that once everyone else pairs up here!

Okay blah I need to study. Dun wanna look stupid again, in front of another tutor -.-

Tuesday, October 20, 2009

10:57 PM

Hooyeah finally bought my all-butter sultana cookies from marksandspencer and they taste like heaven. Heaven for only 2quid! And it costs 7-8bucks in Singapore, suck that losers! Hahaha.

Sorry I'm abit high right now, think it's sleep deprivation. Been sleeping really late nowadays, the nights run really quickly! Like it's already 11pm now I can't believe it feels like 8pm! Am damn depressed about my classes, cos I always can't seem to speak in class, and today I did my homework and was so proud of it, BUT THEN I left it in the library (ARGH) so I couldn't answer any of the questions my boisterous public law teacher shot at me, and I LOOKED LIKE A TOTAL DOOFUS ): Sigh. This tutor is really damn scary he's so high even at 5pm in the evening, and everytime he looked in my direction I'd tremble cos he always looks like he's about to eat me up -.-

WICKED WICKED WICKED TOMORROW EVENING! So exciting. Haha will tell you all if it was worth my 25pounds then. Eh but 25pounds is already more than half the usual price (which is 60 freakin pounds) (: Yay!

8:52 PM

lips are turning blue
a kiss that can't renew
I only dream of you
my beautiful

tiptoe to your room
a starlight in the gloom
I only dream of you
and you never knew

sing for absolution
I will be singing
And falling from your grace

there's nowhere left to hide
in no one to confide
the truth burns deep inside
and will never die.


FINALLY ORDERED MY LASER PRINTER! (:

Okay no time, have 20 more pages of my textbook to read for tmr, and our teacher estimates it'll take us 4-5pgs per hour, so thats...... wayyyyy too long ZOMG

11:52 PM

Omg I opened my rice cooker and out came a stinky waft not unlike an unclean toilet smell, and I found my rice cooker full of raw, wet, rotten rice grains. What. The. Fuck.

I can't wait for my roomie to get back to interrogate her about this.

Still wondering if it's some funky vietnamese concoction.

I know I accidentally burnt her pot once and left it stewing in the common kitchen sink (accident really! The guys forced me to abandon it and I subsequently forgot abt it :/), BUT THIS IS WAY BELOW THE BELT.

Fuck! My room stinks now and I feel extremely ill.

10:22 PM

Been to hillsong london!! How exciting. The praise and worship was awesome. But I still miss the cornerstone one :/ All was well and good until we went to have lunch.. at a bar nearby.. and my lunch cost 7pounds. Bloody hell.

Then it was about 10 degs out this afternoon, and joel and I decided to explore our neighborhood (okay he wanted to smoke his cancer stick and I dragged him along). It wouldn't be so interesting if he hadn't only been in his singlet and rj shorts, and me my rj pe shirt and fbts and we were both wearing slippers... IT WAS FREEZING. Haha we looked like two gungho retards and everyone was staring at us like we were crazy. Everyone else were in thick clothes and many layers and scarves.. My face was falling off, but we did our best to look extremely nonchalant about it all, as if we were still in Singapore and it was 35 degs out! That, my friends, is what we do to add some hype in our lives.

I'm so tired I wanna sleep ):

Can't wait for yijun and jenhan to come backkkkk.. hall is so boring with only 2 other guys around! And we are all so broke, I couldn't afford anything but dessert ):

I started this post only because I wanted to say that I HAVE A SUDDEN INEXPLICABLE CRAVING FOR PEPPER LUNCH o.O

9:42 PM

I once knew a girl
In the years of my youth
With eyes like the summer
All beauty and truth
In the morning I fled
Left a note and it read
Someday you will be loved.

I cannot pretend that I felt any regret
Cause each broken heart will eventually mend
As the blood runs red down the needle and thread
Someday you will be loved

You'll be loved you'll be loved
Like you never have known
The memories of me
Will seem more like bad dreams
Just a series of blurs
Like I never occurred
Someday you will be loved

You may feel alone when you're falling asleep
And everytime tears roll down your cheeks
But I know your heart belongs to someone you've yet to meet
Someday you will be loved

You'll be loved you'll be loved
Like you never have known
The memories of me
Will seem more like bad dreams
Just a series of blurs
Like I never occurred
Someday you will be loved.

7:53 PM

This is very redundant, but omg there are more bras my size in london than there are in singapore I can't believe this!! It is a miracle that I cannot resist telling everyone who wants to hear. Tezenis had a 'all bras for 5pounds' sale just now! Which is damn good seeing that their bras usually go for 12-13pounds each. 100% SILK WHEE. I AM HAPPY.

5?6? How many more days I lost count

11:44 AM

Oh wtf I woke up and saw my roomie and her bf in the same bed.

Wtf?

o.O

Errrr okay I dunno if they're naked or clothed cos they're wrapped up in blankets.. But still. I'M SURE.

Friday, October 16, 2009

10:32 PM

Rar I need to go somewhere else OTHER than oxford street. Because it's so near school, and so long and full of shops, everyone likes to go there all the time. But I haven't been anywhere else! Like Camden town! Or Borough market! ): I need friends who haven't been there to jio me.

I'm actually rather happy about my hall now, not because I actually like this place (it is dirty and noisy AND THERE'S A EFFING GIANTIC SPIDER OUT IN THE CORRIDOR RIGHT NOW) but because all the sporeans in our hall get along surprisingly well. Again, it's only when you're overseas that you realise that home is really where the heart is, where all your true friends are.. Haha. Don't get smug, I'm not missing any of you! (kidding) But angmohs are really tough to be good friends with! It's not because they're racist or whatever, it's just that our frequencies are so entirely different that it's hard to go beyond small talk.

But yeah 4 out of 6 of us are rather tight now, I guess mainly because of circumstance? We've been thrown together in this hall and the other 2 guys feel obligated to protect us girls haha. So we walk to school together, wait for each other (and mug in the library while waiting cos we're all chao muggers), walk home to together, eat dinner together, spend the nights together... Haha sounds so loser right!

I can tell you right now that the loneliness you feel at nights here isn't like the loneliness you'd feel any nights back in Singapore. I can't whip out my handphone and message anyone I like, whenever I wish. When I go on msn or facebook, most of the people online are Londoners because everyone else is asleep. You can't walk around like you own this place, because you don't have any claim on it at all. It's not that London's not nice, really, London's awesome and exciting (WE ARE GONNA WATCH WICKED IN THE THEATRES NEXT WEEK PLEASE BE JEALOUS) but it's not where my friends are! If you guys were all here, I would never go back haha. SEE??? All your faults.

Yeah so I'm really grateful for the s'poreans, because whenever I'm lonely in my room I can just pop by anyone else's to chat and while away the night. Haha I think hall's really a very good place to make friends fast! I guess being in someone else's room makes you feel more comfortable with him/her or something.

OKAY SKYPING WITH RACHELLAM NOWWWW :D BYE

Thursday, October 15, 2009

1:04 AM

Today's was rice, beef, omelette and stir-fried beansprouts and mushrooms. The stove in our hall sucks ass, 45 mins of warming up later the stove was still so un-hot that everything was half-cooked and disgusting :/ so we gathered up all our pots and pans and ran to the postgrad wing to use their high-tech kitchen haha. It took what, 2 mins to heat up?

Am loving the mugging actually (: Kinda. Not that I really actually mug much, only about a third of the words I read get processed in my head..

7, time passes too fast and too slowly.

Tuesday, October 13, 2009

10:56 PM

WE COOKED SEAFOOD AGLIO OLIO, AND MUSHROOM AND ONION OMELETTE TODAY! :D

Haha I made sure I was photographed loads ("eheh take picture of me!! I need to show my friends!!") just to show you guys that I'm not starving to death here.

Mm and dessert, waitrose has ben and jerry's 2 for 4pounds, very worth it.

I ended school at 6 (yay they waited for me), then we all went sainsbury grocery shopping, started cooking at 8, started dinner at about 830, then ate and chatted until now (11pm o.o). Very very tired now ugh were supposed to do laundry but I guess that's for tmr.. laundry's been postponed since saturday D:

But yes it was an enjoyable day I'm glad I have lovely hallmates (:

Ohoh and my public law tutor is SO adorable. He's extremely dramatic and energetic, he's like an actor and we his audience. Haha I was so amused by his antics through the whole period. But I'm going to be damn scared to speak in class, ugh I hate speaking out in class.

Okay okay bath. Bring keys this time.

P.S. MY DEBIT CARDS ARE HERE :D say byebye to my allowance!

p.p.s. I didn't know that ALL our lse law lecturers are uber famous people who've published books.. they still generally suck at teaching anyway haha oh well

9.

1:10 PM

My roomie was studying downstairs with her bf the whole time -.- thankfully she came up to check her laptop at about 3am haha I was totally dying of sleep deprivation and was contemplating kicking joel off his nice warm bed. Today my lessons start at 10am, I'm currently having a 4hour break, and my school ends at 6pm ): Talk about a horrid day.

Yay I think our hall sporeans are gonna cook today! So exciting.

Okay back to studying! Haha boring existence, the way I like it.

p.s. I REALLY NEED MY DEBIT CARD TO ARRIVE so I can shop and buy my laser printer!! So many readings ):

2:09 AM

It's already 2am and I don't know where the hell my roomie is, she's not in the room and I can't call her hp cos I don't bring it out to bathe. Joel's asleep already and making weird noises (quite funny), and I'm tired too! I want my bed! I want my room!

):

I have lessons from 10am to 6pm tmr!

)):

I found out I have a case to read and questions to answer for public law seminar tmr!

))):

SIGH bad end to good day.

1:07 AM

WTH I GOT LOCKED OUT OF MY ROOM ):

I was bathing and then when I came back my room was locked!!! Wtf. I hope my roomie comes back soon or I'm gonna really stone to death in joel's room -.- Hehe kicked him off his laptop! But he ate up my last nissin chilli crab cupmee from singapore ): Omg chinatown sells nissin cupmee, BUT NOT THE CHILLI CRAB ONE. Can you believe it!! Sigh.

Whee went for law fresher's dinner today! (: One of the happier days so far haha. It was at long acre near covent garden.. paid loads of money for it! But yay we camwhored alot haha mingwei is damn funny it's damn sad for him that he's the only guy, he has to get bullied by all of us.

RAR I have like a 60-page case to understand by tmr, and I have a public law seminar tmr and I have no idea what I'm supposed to prepare for it, AND MY CONTACTS ARE FALLING OFF SO I CAN'T CONCENTRATE ON THE BLOODY LAPTOP SCREEN ): It's 1am alreadyyyy where's my roomieeee

Sunday, October 11, 2009

1:39 PM

I know it's all very interesting and there's alot to bitch about, but please stop talking?

1:34 PM

SIX MONTHS IS A VERY SHORT TIME.

Saturday, October 10, 2009

9:37 PM

I feel supremely stupid, I don't understand this case at all ): Barnfather v Islington, about a disabled mother being prosecuted because her kid missed too much school.. Her defence is something about her human rights (innocent until proven guilty) being infringed because the statute didn't allow for any defense due to strict culpability, but other than that I can hardly grasp the cheem english. Rar and it's such a boring tedious case that my mind keeps drifting elsewhere!

Oh no I need to get my brains together! ): I don't wanna be the stupid asian girl ):

2:19 PM

It's DAMN HOT today I'm sweating in my room lah ): Crazy weather. 15 degs!

2:12 PM

It's hard to be understanding when you don't know what you need to understand.

Friday, October 09, 2009

3:09 PM

SHOULD I PAY 440POUNDS FOR AN IPHONE 3GS? WITHOUT A CONTRACT! Tell me tell me!

1:48 PM

Aristotle is such a funny guy, I didn't know he said cool stuff like this: "In the first pace there must be a union of those who cannot exist without each other; namely, of male and female, that the race may continue (and this is a union which formed, not of deliberate purpose, but because, in common with other animals and plants, mankind have a natural desire to leave behind them an image of themselves).." YEAH RIGHT.

Thursday, October 08, 2009

6:40 PM

Life sucks ):

I wanna iphone 3gs but it's so expensive!!

The cheapest plan is: 34pounds per month, pay an extra 90pounds for the phone, and I get 600 mins 500 texts and unlimited internet. Wahh 34pounds per month is crazy D:

Then I thought maybe I could get a blackberry instead... but the lousiest blackberry plan is 25pounds per month (unlimited calls/texts to same provider) plus another 100pounds for the phone. 25pounds per month sounds reasonable, until you convert and realise thats about 55bucks ): 55bucks a month for the lousiest blackberry available! ): Haha let's see if my parents are feeling rich...

4:38 PM

Someone should create a legal dictionary widget! Why isn't there one! ):

Haha I've got many readings to read today, am getting excited about reading them (don't worry will wear off once I actually get started) but too busy talking to s'pore friends :D

And I think my roomie is sick! ): She's been in bed asleep the entire day, and it's already 4.40pm... haha was on the phone with wei and he told me to check if she was breathing. She wasn't moving so I was a little scared so I stuck my finger under her nose o.o haha! got warm breath so should be alive lah? right? Maybe I should wake her up soon..

Yijun fed me rotten cheesecake today ): Vanessa couldn't finish her cheesecake so gave it to her to give it to all of us, and we dug in and only realised it was spoilt after like 2 big mouthfuls ): Oh no I hope I don't get food poisoning.

And booked tickets to portugal for a week with derek! :D So fun. My parents are worried though, they think he's gonna rape me or something I think. So does anyone wanna join us? 12-19 dec! Please? (: It'll be fun! He's nice he won't eat! He's like a... a wenjun without any bitchiness involved (not that I'm one to say since I dunno wenjun well at all haha).

My 20 dec to 11 jan is currently still available, so ppl if you're free please tell me! Think I won't come back already ): Too ma fan.

Okay okay go studyyy.

Wednesday, October 07, 2009

3:01 PM

WE ARE GOING TOPSHOP LATER 20% STUDENTS' DISCOUNT :D

And I should study harder instead haha! Shit lor. Okay tomorrow will be spent studying I promise!

It's been raining alot recently, which really sucks because I haven't gotten myself an umbrella.. umbrellas here are expensive. Those lousy small umbrellas that go for 5 bucks in S'pore? Can cost 10 pounds here -.-




Sigh. The whole problem with being here, a few zillion miles away and in a different time zone, is that there're so many times I want some particular people to be online or nearby to talk to or to randomly sms, but they're always not around ):

Tuesday, October 06, 2009

10:40 PM

It is fking expensive to fly back in december oh my god

SQ and BA tickets cost at least 1k POUNDS.. even the cheapest flights (air france, KLM, bloody hell even air asia) cost 800-900pounds.

Sorry slowly turning vulgar cos no good influence here at all. I can easily say fuck, cos there's nothing and no one here to stop me, I AM FREE, not even my fucking conscience.

At least I still don't drink and club.. and won't ever. That alone should get me to heaven, hear that God?

Okay I need to go back to reading my stupid case. It's some theoretical case (the Speluncean Explorers if you wanna google it) about some guys getting trapped in a mine, and they killed one of their guys to eat him in order to survive until they were dug out. I'm sorry, but the fake judges say really retarded stuff that don't make sense, and they're so bitchy to each other! In fact they spend most of my 16 pages bitching about each other ("my dearest brother justice so-and-so is utterly deluded and he's just living in his own fantasy idealist world, I can't believe he said that!" kind of stuff). The Chief Justice is a total wuss (oh let's convict them and pray they're granted clemency), the 2nd some airy fairy idealist, the 3rd an indecisive girl, 4th a stuckup snob and the last I haven't finished but I'm just trying to find a modicum of common sense in this whole damn case. I can't believe it was published in the harvard law review -.- and I can't believe I'm made to read this -.- Kinda reminds me of the class yijun and I had... full of flowery stuff being thrown about that sound like alot but is actually just bullshit.

6:34 PM

You all won't understand this at all, everything that I do that seems wrong or foolish, because you don't understand my fears and my troubles, because you are not me.

2:47 PM

Yums my brownie is super nice.

And I need to learn to write properly again... my blogging is turning bimbotic. This cannot do, I'll really die for law!

1:19 PM

Yesterday we did laundry!! So weiching and minqi pls dun worry haha I've got ppl here who know how to do laundry! :D So yesterday was a fruitful day-- we cooked and did laundry (:

AND TODAY, I FOUND MY WAY BACK HOME FROM SCHOOL ALONE! :D You don't realise how big an achievement is, friends. Yijun and I have been walking to school and back with the guys every day, because we can't seem to remember the way.. and today my school ended super early, so I decided to be adventurous and find my way home! Joel has absolutely no faith in my sense of direction (very understandable lah huh) and everytime I walk with him he'd suan and quiz me on which way to turn (and I'd get it wrong 70% of the time) but this exercise actually helped me to remember the route :D Granted, I got lost while trying to find my way out of school, but that's mainly it! YAY I ROCK.

Okies why isn't anyone online! It's evening in Singapore! Quick people, get on skype!

Monday, October 05, 2009

11:45 PM

Today was the first day of school.

It was boring ): At least the lectures were. Haha and we had a class with our academic adviser and yijun (who shares the same adviser as me!) and I spent it staring at our adviser, whom she thinks look like Hugh Grant and I just think he has DAMN NICE BLUE EYES.

We impulsively decided to all go to shimin's hall to cook pasta! :D It was nice haha and very cheap!

Btw did I ever tell you guys that we have 11 singaporean girls and only 1 singaporean guy in lse law? HAHA COOL RIGHT. Okay not so cool for him.

Yeah.. anw tomorrow's lessons are bloody useless ): But yijun (who also lives in the same hall as me) doesn't wanna pon lessons so I have to go too. Haha oh well.

SHOULD I GET A LASER PRINTERRR.

Sunday, October 04, 2009

12:38 AM

This isn't easy at all

Saturday, October 03, 2009

12:07 AM

Haha too tired to bloggg

It's a great day today! (:

Law induction. One thing-- angmohs ask the stupidest questions on earth. Srsly.

And omg was at some hillsong london gathering with derek... I went there and it was like, a PUB. I mean wth, how wholesome! Haha! But okay chatted with derek for very long (because the whole place was damn noisy and we didn't know anyone much!) AND YAY we're gg to spain and dunno where this decemberrrr! :D

Aye should I come back though ): sigh.

IT'S GETTING DAMN COLD HERE. I am like perpetually shivering.. cos I'm being damn garang wearing damn little clothes out haha! Not my fault my outerwear are either too thin or too thick. It's about 13 degrees out now.. and I'm in fbts and my rj hoodie. The bloody heater isn't going to turn on till next next week I think D:
