i still cant quite settle with two changes in my life.

1.start of school
2.a new roomie
okay. it's not you but me. i take longer to adjust to changes.

1. i am excited yet apprehensive. firstly it's welcome day. i hope i can do a good job. sx will leave me halfway to attend lessons and i hope it's not during the amazing tour. the freshies and i will just end up in some ulu place and they will see their poor leader desperately calling for help. how unfortunate.
but im excited for abc gathering at nus guildhouse. a dinner that costs 1000bucks! ouch. it's half of what cpa sponsors us in a yr ): and i worry about my hectic life when school starts. a five day week! ): and there's phonathon all the way till october which means 2 weekday nights and sun afternoons are burnt for me.
anyhow, i had second thoughts about rerunning today. cause it was indeed fun being in abc and i can imagine how a big part of my school life would be void without a cca. a part of me felt it was like an oligation to give back to the cca which has groomed me. BUT i know there are ten zillion better candidates out there and i know i need to focus on my studies else getting a second upper would be even more remote. is that being aware of my limits or being selfish?

2. i didnt expect so much shock when i casually mentioned about my new roomie to a few welcome day goodie packers today. lol. it's not really that bad right? at most, you will hate me for screaming too often or being awake when it's already very late or talking at the top of my voice everytime i open my mouth. if not, i think we will just have a fairly good time together cause i believe you have a mild character like most chinese. we might just get along fine. maybe i'm just worrying too much. we just need to talk more. i cant be too quick to judge.

food for thought:
is it bad to be accomodating?
you cant provide for everyone all the time. but it's nice how you can teach others how to share more generously.

(cause i completed my beloved "must love dogs". woots!
i have increased attn span. shall hunt for the movie soon. )

fact of the day:
in australia, the number one topping for pizza is eggs.
in chile, the favourite topping is mussels and clams.
in the united states, it's pepperoni.

for me, it has to be cheese! can never get enough of it
then, it's a tie betw pineapples and tomatoes
mushrooms come in third
(but im not really a huge fan of pizza.
wont have pizza cravings like i will crave for cakes, ice cream and all things sweet)

*if only i can add a doodle board to my blog. instead of adopting a virtual pet to hop ard.
i wonder if my enthusiasm of blogging will fizzle out one day.
i dont like to know that i am someone who does things for the moment tho i think living for the moment is just being optimistic even if it isnt very forward-looking.
well, the reason why i am so into blogging now is 'cause i like thinking and reflecting about little things that happen everyday. it's like stopping to smell the flowers along the way. somehow, i feel taking time to blog makes me understand myself better and grow more as a person.
it's not only 'cause blogging is fresh to me.
that's probably why my entries are soooo long-winded. heh
for anyone who's bored, im not out to provide entertainment.
this is for rubyred's rambling! woots!

im beginning to think the house is too quiet without you guys screaming for mahjong sessions.
have fun in aust! you're missed, berries!
maybe it's time i invest in a camera too. there are too many things i wanna keep memory of and the pictures i take in my head dont last.
