Here's a random post since cousin requested. haha.
Been watching the youtube video posted below at least 10 times! It makes me laugh everytime I watch it, it's just so retarded! lol, and it makes me feel like playing the piano. Haven't touched piano since august last year, meaning 7 months without piano! I actually brought my piano books with me, but i'm just too paiseh to play in the common room >.< The people who play there are all super pro. Thought that there would be studios here for me to practise in, but turned out, no. So sad. Hope I would still be able to play when I go back in June (typed next year at first =.= )!
Life's has been so boring and "as usual". Whenever someone asks me, "how's your day?" or "how's your week"? I have got nothing to talk about. It's just normal lor. Attending lectures, seminars, eating at the refectory, sleep, slack, blah blah. I'm stuck on campus, dassit haha Ruiqish alert!
Well, guess it's time to start studying? Only about 2 months plus to exams! GOSH! >.< Time flies! Soon, it'll be graduation, and work?!
Watched a documentary about Caster Semenya on BBC and I realised why I could not do well for GP. haha which is so super random. Probably cos I knew too little, and I never thought issues were so interlinked, despite attending SOT's lectures. (So I knew that issues are interlinked, but could never apply it) Sports could actually link up with gender, and how each and every one of us perceives ourselves to be. As the sport scientist said in the documentary "gender is what you perceive to be." Hmm. And it's inspiring, how she fought to be reinstated and her passion for running. Here's wikipedia link about her --> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caster_Semenya She's a really amazing person, confident about herself, though she seemed rather arrogant at times.
Fridays and Saturdays are always spent doing nothing! ARGH. Time management skills fail! Come to think about it, I can't believe that I could actually juggle so many things in the past? How did I manage to sleep at 2am and wake up at 6am? Oh and yes, went for boxercise on Friday evening. It was super tough! I almost died during warm up (reminded me of my first karate lesson). But yay, managed to survive it nonetheless! I'm getting fitter! But I'm having muscle aches now :(
Eating ba chor mee (minced meat noodles) tonight! I didn't like it back in Singapore, but somehow I'm really looking forward to it now! hehe, aldric's cooking it! Hope it'll taste good!

Change of blogskin!
Had been lazy to change even though the banner of the previous blogskin had already been taken down. got forced by cousin to change it. quite a cute blogskin right!
I just can't stop sleeping! Wonder what's wrong with me, sigh. Slept a lot last week even though I was supposed to be working on my seminars. Had to rush 1 tutorial (out of 3) as a result.
Ok, need to blog about more exciting stuff!
Volunteered for the first time in UK on Monday, for intercultural festival! Was supposed to help set up for movie screening as well as collect feedback after the movie. Watched 4Bia, a Thai horror film. omg I was covering my face almost throughout the whole film, and after it ended, I got really paranoid and flustered. It was really bad! I'm never ever gonna watch horror film again. >.< Also, cos it was screened by the Thai society, most people there were from Thailand! Singapore's good friend! haha, didn't know there are so many Thais in the university before the movie.
Had yusheng potluck party with singsoc on wednesday for ren ri! The yusheng was really niceeeee! It's my first time lao-ing yusheng for cny. haha super deprived right? Picture of all the food!
Shared a dish with Jaclyn: It's sweet and sour prawns! It's the one in a black container in the centre of the picture! glad it turned out yummy! heehee!
Volunteered on friday for the same event as well. This time it's watching Mongol screened by the Kazakh society. So you can expect, there's lots of them as well! Had a really interesting conversation with them as well as their nigerian classmates. it's one of those rare times that i get to mix with international students! The feeling's really... GREAT! and they asked me what does Singapore have. I said talent. All of them look puzzled. haha, I think that's the most accurate answer? Anyway, the movie was about Genghis Khan, quite an interesting one about his life before he became a conqueror. That made me realize how little I know about him, hmm.
No weekend dinner this week! Went to Nash for fish and chips! Really yummy! Pictures!
Spent my weekend watching two movies as well as lots of videos. :X When I had slacked so much last week. argh >.< Promise, I will do some studying this week k!! >.<
Anyway, watched, 白夜行 and 外出 on saturday. Both korean movies. The former left me speechless. It was a really impactful movie. So much so that, I sat down on my chair for quite awhile, stoning and reflecting about it after it ended. It's an adaptation of a Japanese novel. Now I'm thinking of reading the book. As for the latter, it's a beautiful one, but pity I watched it before I was about to sleep. It was so slow that I became impatient while watching. But I suppose, the slowness of the movie is the director's way to beautify the whole movie. After all, the movie is about adultery and revenge? Both of which are ugly.
As for today, wasted all my time by watching videos of 超级星光大道,超级偶像 and MVs. These people can sing really well la! I'm so envious! And cooked egg porridge for dinner. My british neighbour was really curious and she asked if I was cooking rice pudding. haha.
Tomorrow's Valentines day! no date, so sian. lol

1. It was so windy for the past few days. Wind speed at 50+km/h, 39km/h. It's really crazy, imagine the traffic light shaking?! Though I have to admit, it's really fun! haha! I'll never get to experience winds these strong in Singapore, so strong that I could feel 'blown away' despite being so big-sized. haha and my bag of groceries could 'fly'! amazing experience I would say!
2. Took bus for the first time ever since I'm in UK! haha. 5 months in Leeds and I have never taken a bus before, super noob! I was supposed to tell the bus driver my destination, but the bus driver could not understand what I was saying?! I had to repeat 4-5 times before a fellow passenger came to my rescue. Don't know if I was too soft, or it's cos I speak with a singaporean accent. lol. makes me appreciate the EZ link card even more! Just tap in and tap out, save lots of trouble!
3. Bought stuff online again! Have never bought stuff online (except books) in Singapore, but since shopping is so limited here... I had bought a pair of shoes previously cos I had to use up a voucher. Just ordered a pink parka from uniqlo! wheeeee simply can't resist pink stuff >.<
Feeling very excited now! PINK PARKA! wheeee~
So this is 'retail therapy', haha. quick quick get rid of all these grey clouds that have been lingering around since 2 weeks ago!
ah yes, I need to thank YOU (all) for helping me to get rid of some of the grey clouds. don't worry, the grey clouds are disappearing, hopefully they won't come back.
:)
