moving on...

my room has disappeared.

here are some pictures...

this is what it was like before the packers came.
(its usually not that messy. really ...)


now, its sorta...empty.

o well.


oh and this was what my little whiteboard had the week before i left for malaysia and when some people were still here:


It was a good week. Sad, but good.

i'm gonna sleep earlier tonight. another day of sorting out tomorrow before the packers come again and my entire house will be emptied out...

I hate moving.
It's been over 4 years since our last move. And i have SO much stuff!! I don't like throwing things away. like old schoolbooks and all that...

I spent my entire day today trying to sort out what stays in singapore what goes, and what i should bring to Australia. Very little of australia thoughts now though. no time for that. My mind is already messy enough... i suck at clearing stuff... and packing... And therefore am very slow. So i didnt get much done.

1 more day tmrw for the penang stuff. tues packers coming.

packers coming again on friday to move to new house here.

I think i'm falling sick. Crappy time to fall sick. but then i might have an excuse to do less with packing :P haha.

Job Confirmed

I start on the 4th of December. 9am.
i need to start waking up early...
If you haven't heard Gentlemen, or Try Too Hard by Teddy Geiger, i suggest you do. I dont know much about the lyrics but the melody is really nice. it makes me feel.... happy. i guess. just listen to them. :)

Anyway, i STILL havent confirmed my job at guardian which is a very silly thing to do considering how hard some people try to find a job and not getting any. Mental note: I will do that tomorrow.

I really have nothing else to say. im updating just for the sake of updating. nothing's been going on.
well not exactly. we now have 7 guests in our house. 3 adults, 4 girls. I went to school on friday to meet teachers and have naan (which unfortunately had just finished when i wanted to get some). I also went ice skating that day with dom and mjelva and got a bruise on my wrist from ONE fall about 5mins before we left ice skating because some guy decided to skate in front of me, and not knowing how to slow down or stop instantly, i decided to head for the barrier at the side- not a very smart idea. oh, and the place had crappy skate boots which resulted in sorta bruised ankles too. on one leg. the other side was fine.

My internet died on me last night, which wasnt very nice. i was in the middle of conversations with people! last night i also listened to (but not watch) british TV. haha. some show called Deal no deal or something like that.....

today i watched 5 (or 4...) episodes of Greys anatomy. :)

yes ive been very productive the past few days...

ah.. i need to start doing something. i need to call up Guardian tomorrow.

well thats a bit of an update for you.

Goodnight dearies.

just for my reference. might be a bit boring for you to read...

I've never really bothered finding out what my university course would consist of. So after months of procrastionation I realised it might be a good idea to check out what sort of things i'll be doing in uni.

First year, first half sounds a lot like normal school.
after that... omg
in math thers lots and lots of stats... glad to know though, math is only in first year.
the subjects sorta morph from usual bio, chem, math into less math, then less bio, and more and more pharmaceutics/pharmacology. intersting :)

As i read through the course description for each year i understand less and less...
which is quite scary.

anyway, after reading through a bit, i actually can't wait for uni to start. haha.
i'd probably regret saying that once uni really starts tho...

:P

looking at this year's time table (i cant see mine yet. wont be out til 20th nov) it looks like most lectures are 50 mins, and practical sessions are 2hr50mins long.
i dont really understand how things work or how what the table really shows, but looks like lectures can have up to 200 people and tutorials 15.

whats industrial placement?

the entire schedule is so hard to understand i dont even know when my holidays are. if i'm right, my mid-year break is 3 weeks in the middle of july.

i'm once again back in singapore. its good to be back. but it feels sorta different now...

theres so many things i want to write but dont know what to write. so right now im just not writing anything.
i think i'll open up my diary instead... later. :)

anyway the following pictures are pen drawn 'tattoos'. haha. it all started when i was bored in one of the lectures i had to go to before starting driving lessons... if only they were real... :P i think my mum would freak out. hehe.

update...

Hello all!
its been 2 months and a week since i arrived in Kuantan. I'll be back in Singapore on sunday :)
Anyway...
im done with my 2 months of work, and i also have my drivers license now! yay! :)
I baked some cookies yesterday for my collegues in the pharmacy, and they all wanted the recipe! so yeah :) that was good. haha. i thought it wouldn't work (baking i mean). The first tray came out prettymessed up... so i had to make some changes then it turned out fine in the end...

Parents came back from their trip to adelaide recently and ive got a place to stay there! sounds good so im pretty excited to get started. but somewhat scared... haha. well we shall see.
i also got an email from my Uni telling me when orientation is but i already know when it is so.. yeah...

i wonder what job ill get when back in singapore... was thinking last night cuz i couldnt sleep and i cant think of something i feel like doing apart from finding another pharmacy who would take me. haha.

SO

i'll be back soon. yeah. thats about it.

swati, i cant find your blog... o.O i forgot the address...
