And so she writes...
It's been well over a month since lai touched down in London, yet perhaps the first time people have heard from me since. Frankly, I've been lazy and rather reluctant to pen thoughts to paper, though as with all us slackers, you'd probably find me on msn or Facebook during lectures. The latter can provide information on my latest galavants though it's probably better if you just talk to lai in person, though just recently, lai's old (well, not really) Fujitsu got fried again for the third time in four months (damn faulty parts) so yeah... lai got a macbook to replace it (with a heavy student discount. It's wonders what your student card can get you in London) which also means no gaming for lai in a while, at least till I can find a Windows install disc to run dual OS on the same system... right...
So today, in a half bored state (I've got a few essays to write for Reading Week, but as usual, have been procrastinating and procrastinating), I actually took a peek to see if the FP accounts a couple of us set up so many years ago were still there. Scarily enough they are. jm in her last update said she'd get back to FP sometime in the future, but I wonder, would we really? Frankly, I do miss writing and I do think my standard of language has gone down some bit since I stopped, but i find there's not really all too much time that one can dedicate to that hobby, or other personal hobbies for that matter... though I'm thankful that we've got a music room in the hall and that I'm still able to "entertain" the poor guy on top of it with my horrendous playing every once in a while. Hopefully I wouldn't have to drop that hobby any time soon (may have to next year if I move out of Halls)
Mm... Life in London has been interesting I guess. There are days when you feel so pressed for time (because there's really so much to do here) and others when the hours pass slowly (like when lai randomly walks down to Regents Park, sits on the grass and eats her packed lunch while watching the world go by). Time seems to fly though. It's really hard to imagine that we're just a couple weeks off from Winter. From what I can see in Yuhui's and Guanhui's photos, it's already snowing where they are... I wonder if we'll get snow over here this year...
This post wasn't meant to be any coherent retelling of what's been happening since people last heard from me and at least it certainly isn't fulfilling the coherent bit. I'll probably try to keep up my end of the reporting and post more often I guess. Do poke me now and then through msn or skype (poke me for contacts) if you can, it gets rather quiet here at night sometimes ^^"
Neighbour's chasing me to go have dinner with her so I shall stop for now. lai misses you guys <3
