'Is there a chance in hell or heaven
That there's still something here to build on?
Or do you just pick up the pieces, after they fall
But after all
There's a light in your eyes that I used to see
And a song in the words that you spoke to me
Was I wrong to believe in your melody
There's a light in your eyes
Did you leave that light burning for me?
Should I keep on waiting or does love keep on fading away
Fading away
It's been a while since I've seen you so how have you been?
Did you get my letter I wrote you, but I did not send?'

Paul Chen's Celebratory Dinner
Went to Paul Chen's dinner tonight for his teaching award.
Was a bit intimidated cause I was the only undergrad student there, the rest were all academics.
Sat beside a couple - the wife worked for some consulting business and the hubby was a Geology lecturer. She told me that I was interesting to talk to when she left, I think she tried very hard to mean it, haha cause I think I'm not very interesting, maybe I should do more crazy stuff.
It was awkward since there was this other lecturer that was sitting at the table. On Monday(It's Wednesday today =)), he was printing a final exam paper from his desk while I was photocopying quiz questions for my class. He came into the room and noticed (possibly through my Bei Da hoodie) that I wasn't a lecturer and started drilling me with questions: Who are you? Why are you here? You're not supposed to be here! I'm printing exam questions!
Well how would I know? I was only told to wait for my printing to get done and leave. I didn't even see the questions or know that he was printing exam questions.
That was on Monday, and I sat across from him today. It got pretty hilarious. I introduced myself awkwardly and said 'Oh I'm sorry about what happened in the printing room.' He was stunned for abit while the others at the table realized the awkwardness and started going 'Oh lots of things happen in the printing room, who would bother to remember them...' trying to ease the tension. LMAO.
Otherwise it was an interesting experience.
Thank you blog for listening and for being here. =)
Oh please my dear life, please get back to normal.
Zero Slack @Fishbowl tomorrow! =)
But first, good night and sleep well. Sweet dreams.

Fog and lamps...
As I take my mind off Financial Mathematics for a while (which is actually an affair occuring more frequently than I would like it to...), I admire the fog outside which has caused the glow of the street lamps to become so beautiful indeed...
So much reflection done.
I should be more imperfect.

I've been having this dream about...
...it suddenly getting dark, and I'm lost somewhere. But somehow there's always a trusted friend who appears and offers to lead me back home, following which I wake up. Been twice while in Canberra.
Just like what Ruth said, I should learn to count my blessings! =)
I don't have many, but I know there're a few trusted friends that I have here with me, and that's all that matters. =)
I will not be bothered by childish marginalising and politics. As Jun Yan would say, that's what makes the world interesting anyway! Haha kudos to him for his positive attitude.
Skiing was a real blast! Long time since I had so much fun in my life! Haha I stuck with Jesslyn most of the time cause she can ski pretty well as well. Though we were totally loser-like when we tried the more advanced slopes =P & Helped Sherine and Kimberley so many times while coming down.
Went for a Bruce high table dinner on sustainability internships at Oxford and Yale. Spoke with an Italian/Polish alumni who works at AUSAid and who was really skeptical and critical about the way environmental issues were being tackled and on social issues in general, but he's really cool and well-read.
Attended a talk by some Major-General who served in Iraq for a year. As expected, he could exude not only swelling charisma but also strict political correctness. No controversy = Not interesting.
Visited Geraldyne's room last night with Ruth and Jun Yan! First time I'd seen an Ursula room and it's really long! Got to know Trina and managed to say hi to Yvonne.
Life is beautiful. =)

Wearing a new pair of jeans
signifies a new start altogether.
Too much stuff to write about but no time, and a lot of my entries got wiped out since the site was down.
& murder is scary.

Went shopping...
...for winter clothes! Winter Time at Vivo's pretty good. Bought a jacket at Zara too! Really had fun shopping with mom today! =) Lunched with her at Vivo's Dian Xiao Er, their herbal duck and XO seafood fried rice not bad! The Fei Cui Yuan Yang was only so-so.
Then we went Centrepoint to pick up more warm clothing, and bought some Prima Deli Mixes - Laksa, Chicken Curry and Bah Ku Teh =D After that was Kinokuniya and I brought home so many titles! Haha yay! =)
The Crumpler shop at Wheelock Place didn't have stock for so many designs so I guess maybe I'll get one in Australia.
If I backtrack a little, last Sunday's lunch was with our family friends. The uncle made me drink so much! Think I got a hangover after that already...I probably can't drink too much else I'll really feel terrible after that!
Sunday's dinner was part of an 04s11 outing =) So many faces I hadn't seen for a while. Lau Pa Sat food isn't so bad after all! Haha I wore the bracelet from 77th Street that Milk gave me for the 1st time! Anyway we ended up sitting in front of Central and playing silly orientation games!! Haha...it feels really good to feel youthful again!! =D I'm not even sure if that makes sense but yea it's really cool =D On a seperate note though, I need to try and not be bothered so easily by the little things that happen =
And oh I've found a Singaporean that's doing the same combi as me! Like how cool is that!! =)
Pack pack pack! So many things to pack!
