Back in Singapore!
mood: Happy
After 9 months, I'm finally back in Singapore!
I don't actually know if this is just me imagining things, but somtimes I find it rather hard to breathe due to the humidity. 0_o Like, I'm in my room right now and it seems like I have to take deeper breathes just to get more oxygen into my lungs. I have no idea whether it's just me making things up or whether it's really true, since I don't think I've ever experienced this before, but this is also the first time I've been away from home for so long. I wonder if anyone's experienced the same thing as I have? Maybe I should just switch on the air-con and see whether or not my theory is true or just a cracked out one. :p[More...] [Karma: -1 (+/-)][link] [2 Comments]

Damn Orange
mood: Pissed off
Crap, Orange got wise to the method of using 07744 and 07755 numbers to call abroad such that it'll be included in their minutes bundles... so now this means that I can no longer call home for free. >_< AND they've also added a condition which says that inclusive texts are only for standard person to person texts, which could possibly mean that I can no longer Twitter for free from my phone. I'm not sure about this last one; I have to wait for my upcoming phone bill to see if that's the case, but if it's true, then it SUCKS. All my reasons for getting a contract phone are now officially moot.

In London for a week!
mood: Hungry
I've arrived safely in London! For those who don't know, I'm doing a one week attachment at a Barrister's Chambers in London before I fly back home. I'm actually really really nervous about it since I tend to feel stupid around people older and smarter than me, plus the fact that I'll be "alone" in that I'll be doing the attachment without anyone I know - not like the attachment in Singapore where I had Tiff and Xiu to talk with and have lunch together. I wonder whether I'll have to eat lunch alone. i_i
Anyway, am staying in a family friend's house for the week - I was actually pretty nervous about meeting him too since I'm shy around people I don't know all that well, but he's a really nice guy so it's been easy conversing with him. Will be here until the upcoming Saturday and then I'll be going back to Nottingham for a night and then flying off from Heathrow. I know it sounds weird having to go down to London, return to Nottingham and then go back down to London again but I didn't really want to have to handle my heavy luggage on the first trip down... at least if I leave from Nottingham I'll be taking the coach so I won't have to drag my heavy suitcases with me all over the place.
In any case, I'm quite looking forward to the internship, it seems like there's actually stuff planned for me to do and I think I'll learn alot. Though to be honest, as is typical of me, now that I know I'll be returning to Singapore soon I'm actually feeling kind of homesick. ^_^;; Can't wait to go back... only 9 more days to go! :D [Karma: -2 (+/-)][link]
