somehow tonight passed by faster than any other night here so far. i think i'm as good as settled down already. not academic-wise though cos tutorials have not started yet for me. so waiting for the onslaught of assignments and thousand word essays that i always hear about.



wish you all were here.

every morning i sit in my room in dread of going to take a shower.



the worst part of everyday is when you get in the shower and take all your clothes off and wait for the water to be hot enough. then those antagonising seconds you spend trying to get the water to the right temperature. it is hell.



at least i'm lucky enough to get the sun shining into my room throughout the day.



ok off to shower. give me strength.





i was attacked by a bird yesterday. i still have not figured out what type of bird it is. but it looks like a magpie or a crow or a dove.



i was walking back to my hall and this bird was in my way in front of the door so i just walked towards it. it stared at me. and then when i got too close it flew up in the air and hovered round my head and flapped its wings. i said,"ni na bei!" and ran into the building with a good mind to complain to the office.



today i saw an angmoh being attacked by the same type of bird. again the bird was just standing there and when the angmoh guy got too close it flew up and hovered round his head making intimidating pecking movements and flapping its wings. the angmoh said,"shit!" and clapped his hands at the bird when it finally flew away.



at least the bird isn't racist.





man it's freezing again as usual. when the sun goes down, everything just freezes. it's saturday night and i'm gonna be going out for dinner with the guys i hang out with and maybe for drinks later. cos there's precious little else to do around heres. hope everyone is fine back home. i am gonna go put on a sweater and my jacket now and head out.
