i had lunch with the other temp girl and her high school friends today at an Egyptian restaurant near Bugis. it was this old street with lots of small vintage shops and Mediterranean eateries. Food was good, we had a lot of meat. I think i even ate lamb without knowing that it was actually lamb until after (i don't like lamb). i was really quiet during the whole meal, well, i'm usually quiet regardless, especially around new ppl anyways. It was 4 girls (i was deff 5th wheelin), but it was nice hearing them catch up with each other. They're all going overseas to study in Sept (3 of them to England), and so it's their last summer together, and they haven't seen each other for a while cause they've been so busy.
sighs.
it really made me miss my girls. gaaah. i can't help but think about all the things that i'm missing out this summer. all the random chilling (the $5 Wendys/Macs/McD's run really stands out), and birthdays and 4 hour bbt chats and fmp meetups. bah. but it's okkk. that just means there shall be no time wasted once sept hits. i'm writing a contract with all you ppl AHAH. k-style. all love no hate in 4th year. capische???
i was sitting on the MRT yesterday, thinking, damn, life is going to be like this, but 10 times harder once university is done. so maybe i should be glad that i don't have a real job this summer. i don't know, but all my jobs so far don't feel real. maybe cause they all involve brainless work (aka manual labour) and so it doesn't feel like real work? but it's okk, the whole call operator episode is becoming more chills (as long as my partner is there) and all the nurses are mad jokes. but other than that, my life in Singapore is very routine. and i guess that's what happens after all this. you go to work, do the 9-5 (except more like 6-7 for me), come home, eat, watch the tube/surf a lil/dance a lil ;), then hit the sack at 9-10pm (i've become so old). perhaps see the friends/fam on weekends, and bam, you find yourself lugging your ass out of bed at the break of monday's dawn.
but i figure working life would be pretty much identical in the tdot or anywhere else. i don't hate Singapore. i'm still happy to be in Asia. the food, the exotic fruits, the heat, the celebs, the relatives...i enjoy. living with the g-parents is also quite the experience on its own. my patience has really been tested lately because gah, my g-ma really is worse than my own mother. but it's only cause she's old and worries over everything. but it's been hard refraining myself from snapping at her (:S i'm pretty bad eh). must learn to tolerate. it's cause she cares. i know. must love. not hate.
i can't believe i have been away home for 7 mths. but can't say it hasn't been good times. i've always liked living away from home though. so i quite enjoy it. i just wish i have the 本事 to move out after all this is dunzo. maybe. with enough drive, just maybe.
so it's been ok so far i guess.
yeah i still miss it all like crazy. and wouldn't rewinding time a lil. but waaatcaanyadoo.
i hope everyone's having a great summer (may be the last for some of us).
before we know it, it'll all be over.
ahah just keeeding.
enjoy!
