Homesick
Oh shit, i miss home sooo much.
Especially on this sun-sunny sunday where unfortunately, i'm stuck in the central library, typing away coz my laptop is still MIA. Most of the dorm rats are back home eating home cooked food and watching the olympics on TV already and i'm still here, feeling so darn hungry because i don't wanna spend another singaporean cent on overpriced nothing-compared-to-kl food.
Got a lecture from dad the other day regarding the phone bill. Called chip the other day using the international phone line for 35 minutes and blady heck, the phone bill was a friggin 83 ringgit! So....now, the only mode of conversation i can relegate on is thru sms or worse still, telepathy. Gosh, i miss him soo much. Last week's trip back home was a real eye opener in terms of our relationship progression. I've never realised how much i missed him until i was in his arms again. Pure heaven! He sent me off at the bus station on monday evening and when the bus took its leave and me seeing him standing outside, waving me off, i felt a sudden tug at my heartstrings. I knew then, that, even though i was 'leaving' him, i don't think that i'll ever be 'away' from him. In other sense, i've got a gut feeling that we'll always stay together, distance or otherwise. Chip, if you're reading this, this is my mode of transparency to you. I'll remain so till i can see and hear you again, personally.
Dad's coming down next week to sign the guarantor form for the tuition fee loan. I just can't wait. Finally, someone from home! Think i'll be asking him to buy some liquid detergent down as the clothes i laid into the washing machines to be washed always have a funny fishy stench. My best bet is that it's from the guys' sweaty sports outfit after their ball games and stuff. Ugh!
Classes will be moving full force ahead starting next week. Have spent like, 20 sing bucks on printing stacks upon stacks of notes, which is painfully, burning a huge hole in my pocket. I have to be more thrifty already (replacing meals with biscuits is one alternative). Dont think i'll be able to go home during the weekends reason being 1. The bus fare is cutthroat and 2. I have pracs on sat morns. Looks like the next time i'll be back home will be in september during the 5-day long holiday. Simply envy those people staying in JB, where it's only like a measly 1 hour trip back to h-s-h.
Oh lynn, you wanted to know about the bash? Yep, i wore that top i 'stole' from you. Hehe. But, the clubbing scene in s'pore is not much different from the one back in kl. They have the same dress (or lack of) sense and the same clubbing scene. If you ever were to come down, go check out Chinablack or Rouge Club along Orchard Rd and obviously, the mother hen - Zouk. It's Ladies' Night on Thurs back in KL right? In s'pore, it's Wednesday Mambo night where ladies are granted free entrance and free flow of house pours, if i'm not mistaken. Cool huh? Sad thing is, i have classes on thurs morning.
