its the good life.

went hunting for my olympus e- p1 but not available yet. grrr. also looked at sofas and flat screen tv! haha so fun.


then armed with a tub of ben & jerry's and a bag of chips, to norm's we go!


meato his cat was there to greet us, and norm was making... baked pasta; of italian food party fame. it just got awesomer. its so awesome that i ate half of suresh's vegetarian version and half of the meat one. FIERCE.


i tell myself i'm making up for the crappy canteen food i forcefully ingest for 5 days. hahahaa action actually friday only eat canteen food. mon and thurs eat instant soup with butter rolls. and tues + wednesday on MC. HAHAHA GONJENG.


its been a good week. i am well aware of my extremely good luck. i try to soften 'the blow' and tell my friends its not as awesome as they think, it comes with their own challenges etc. but realistically speaking, i have it a lot easier here than elsewhere. and i am grateful. and while i had my struggles with one or two classes, i think friday sealed the deal. laughter and smiles and engaged, listening faces all around. if i ever i feel jaded, i must look back to this week and remind myself why i got into this.


tuition tomorrow, and i forsee much meeting up on monday. probably with my nie missies. got my gown on thursday and my scroll etc. i'm just glad its over. and while i realized i could have gotten a merit instead of credit diploma, i also know that i wasn't in this to ace the living hell out of it. i'm pleased with what i got out of nie: friends, a qualification that allows me to do what i enjoy, and of course, a eurotrip in the midst of it all. best memories.


so friday came and lo and behold, borders sent me a discount coupon. so off to town it was, first to meet zat (where we ended up with a pair of new shoes each).


and then to tangs; where i got nehneh his graduation outfit. a purple tie, who would have thought. (: i'm happy to know some part of me will be there with him come monday, even if i can't attend his ceremony. and then it was BORDERS! a comic book and virgin suicides. mighty mighty pleased. book collection growing, can't wait to move and display them allllll. aaah my own personal library at last.


so i will read some tonight, and if i'm up to it, i'll prepare some slides for a briefing i'm conducting on tuesday/ wednesday. or some marking, perhaps. but work aside, some R&R first. and perhaps to start working out finances shall i really go through with december plans. heh heh heh.


happy saturday, all. and to all teachers; rejoice! long weekend! :D
