School is starting in a matter of weeks. I recently receive news that I will be allocated to hall 1. One of the supposingly sports hall with bursting amount of activities going on all the time and with many enthusiastic hostel members. Not exactly my definition of fun.
My kind friend(or rather her beau) offered to sell me a mini fridge for my hostel if it is still in workable condition. Then those stocked up Bens and Jerry ice-cream!!!!, fruits, ice-cold lemon tea, facial masks(if I even have the time to use)and chocolates comes in handy when my stomach growls violently or my face starts popping unknown(though mostly known) objects. Thanks Siow Peng!
In hall 1, the toilets are shared among 4 person instead of the entire floor. The good news is that I have a lot more privacy since there are less people sharing it. (Yessssss!! I can sing when I bath without being self-conscious that the cute hostel mate next door will hear me when he walked past the female toilet)The bad news means we got to work out some sort of a roster so that each of us have a fair share of ensuring that the toilet is not full of yucky hair trapped in the drain or toothpaste mark on mirrors.
I managed to buy a few goody Godly inspiration posters from Popular to stuck onto my hostel's wall and decide to replace the Bae Yong Jun's one at home with something else-probably another hunk. It always feel purposeful to start the school term off with resolutions and goals to achieve though I know it will die off in a matter of time.
As for now, that is what I had thought through regarding hostel. Maybe when I move into the hall, I can blog more on the different categories of people I meet-the sports captain, the closet mugger, the hall queen, the peeping tom etc.
I am still about 9 chapters away from the end of the potter's book. Almost the entire day was spent reading it. Rowling has successfully made me spell-bound. If only she could cast that spell on my lecture notes and textbooks. She would have made a Hermione out of me!
