3 weeks
it's been a crazy 3 weeks.
from working till the next morning on my last day of work, packing for two weeks in london (and bringing only summer clothes, i.e. no jacket/cardigan/long pants), getting a call from the office before i boarded the plane, crying over sappy movies on the plane, touching down at heathrow, almost mistaken to be a prostitute (or some social escort) at customs, food food food, shopping, spending unplanned and disproportionate amount of time with random friends (but great company), all souls (!), errands, taming of the shrew, south bank, war horse, cooking, more eating, richmond park (and deers!), primrose hill, wimbledon (queuing for 5 hours and not getting any tickets. centre court tickets thanks to leslie!), brick lane, saying hi to london people, hampstead heath (crepes!), coffee, love, crying, saying byes, arriving home to sleep on my bed, real bah chor mee, rushing off to chinatown to buy what i need for my costume, dinner with family, flying off to bangkok, awesome (5 STAR YO!) hotel room, drinking games, rehearsing for D&D, stressing out about my costume and script, 110th anniversary, impromptu, ad-libbing, thought i'll probably lose my job, receiving encouraging comments, getting a hug from CO (significance of which was only later explained to me), waiting, paid entry to a club for the first time ever, room service, sleeping in, shopping shopping shopping, massage, shopping shopping, no in-flight entertainment, Skype, prayer worship & fellowship, groggy, to welcome to part b,
i don't really want to start part b at all. to be overwhelmed by all the familiar (and strange) faces, to have to small talk, study, wear business attire (i just bought 5 pairs of shorts!!!), be sociable, interact, prepare for exams, appear confident, eloquent, intelligent etc...
i'm just tired. and feeling anti-social.
but i'm glad i don't have to go to work. to be able to sleep in feels so... free.
i ran away after the welcome talk. ran away from food! even though i haven't had anything to eat the entire day.
plus there's so many outstanding things clouding, festering. my medical insurance claim, my outstanding MRI/surgery, rehabilitation.
and part b honestly looks rather daunting. 9 subjects?! i haven't done that since O Levels. I'm not young anymore. besides, the timetable is one confusing schedule and the online learning portal tedious.
less than 6 months left.
help.
