it is aug 26th

hello people, finally my exams are done. or is it?

cannot believe that semester 1 has ended, that i have been here for 4 months, that i have gotten so drunk and puked in the subway, that i can survive on a strict pizza and no-fruit diet, that snow is actually irritating and unpleasant when it comes down in the form of ice, that i have yet to cook…..

it really just seem like yesterday where i was stuck in the airplane delayed by some faulty door switch at changi (why do we pronounce it “chan-nee” and not “chang-gee”?). man, i cannot believe how much money i have spent…

snow: most part of my life was spent under the illusion that snow is a beautiful thing. yes, it is but it hurts too and can be treacherous to the unsuspecting pedestrian who, incidentally me, have slipped a few times while walking in 60kmh winds in a frozen friendly temperature of -16 (windchill).

anyway, i have joined theonlinecitizen (TOC) as a guest writer. TOC has this new unimaginatively-named initiative TOC International, where singaporeans overseas will write about crap from a new perspective. the column should go up in January.. I am excited and cannot wait to start but i, first, must find something to write about…

go read their site and join them should it pique your inner volition.
