it's good to have friends :)
it means free cake, free drinks, good conversation and best of all, a whole lotta laughter
just got back from my friend's 27th bday! he's the oldest of the bunch but we all love him :)) haha and he still acts like a kid sometimes
i'm happy i went cos i was considering keeping myself cooped up in the room and watching old bones episodes
my room needs more ventilation and better lighting!
and i did it! finally booked my ticket to new york...been planning a visit there for months but never got down to it... yay! i'm going to get a giant M&M the size of my heart...going with cheryl and hopefully we get to go to boston too..4 hr drive away. gonna bunk at dione's..i need to get a slping bag!
i was just marveling how differently ppl from similar backgrounds turn out. how some rich kids choose to party all day while others try to make something of their lives. i was just talking to one friend whose parents would have gladly paid for her tuition but she chose to be financially independent from them i.e. pay for her own tuition and living expenses! which amounts to tens of thousands a year by working part-time/late-night shifts at restaurants.. i think thats pretty damn amazing. plus she's the least materialistic person i've seen...i've seen her wear a total of 2 different jackets in 2 semesters even though her dad offers to buy her burberry coats and the only "splurges" i've seen are her macbook and blackberry.. i need to learn from this girl
am really worried about whether im going to land an internship. oh btw i applied to an internship in spore haha. im a cheater. wait, make that am applyING to. i better not miss the deadline like i did the others. argh. need to weigh my pros and cons
i need my mojo back!!
anyway, for valentine's i received a rose that had a card that said: from ur secret admirer. my floormate said a girl dressed in pjs passed it to her. and the card had girly handwriting. so i was v suspicious.... and i was right! haha..my bunch of friends all ganged up to send the singles in the group flowers i.e. 5 of the girls got the rose. which was cheeky but sweet at the same time.
but it's embarrassing cos my floormates keep asking who gave me the rose and i have to tell them its my friend haha.. oh anw valentine's night was spent drinking at a friend's place..and i was the only non-Thai present! i seem to have an affinity for Thais...i think it's cos they're easy to get along with..NOT bcos of pongpong who was omg a mistake. oh the errors we make in our youth!
erm lets see, what else do i have to blog about.
1. i'm hugely behind in my work, which i will hopefully catch up to tonight but i doubt it
2. i sleep at 5 or 6 am on most days and wake up at 4 pm i.e. miss my classes--> which i dont think is a big deal as long as i do well right?? i am going to follow pareto's principle and only go for 20% of my classes haha
3. oh my friend met wyclef jean in sf! which was v funny cos one of her friend's was working at the hotel and was pretending to be room service when they asked to take a photo with him. and according to her he speaks fluent french
4. there was a pillow fight in sf? where u pillow fight in public with random strangers? we shld have such things in spore. v cathartic
5. i went to a thai bar ytd where a bunch of gay ppl kept checking my friend out
6. i'm going to sf again on monday! i need to control my spending or i wont have any left for ny....everytime i go i spend at least 300 bucks.. and i go quite often
i want a dog but i cant stand the poop and smell that comes with one. how? i wish dogs cleaned up after themselves
where are u working during summer nina?
