Been wanting to blog a nice long post for awhile now:)Sorry its been such a stagnant blog of late but I guess I'm not that used to updating as I did before sydney..It feels like I have so many thoughts in my head I don't even know where to start.

The past week has been great:)I'm starting to remember what I felt like just before I left for sydney in the beginning of the year, when I was so sad to leave and so scared of what I was to face in australia..Ha well except I guess I'm not that scared now..just sad to leave my family and friends once again..But I guess this whole experience has just made me appreciate my loved ones more:)and appreciate the good food in singapore more:)

My mom was telling me how she feels closer to me although she sees less of me now..and I do feel closer to my elder sister as well, although I know I can't fully understand what she's going through right now..She's still the same bigger sister I admired and respected, just that I'm only know realising how 'old' she's getting..still can't fully take in the fact that she's going to be a mom!and I'm going to be an aunt.gosh I feel old. I went to cine yesterday and suddenly felt so OLD in the presence of all the surrounding school students. Ha not that I'm very matured or anything, just that I realise how fast time is flying and how far we've all grown from the little kids we used to be..I still recall times when me and my sisters would be playing silly games and argueing over the silliest things, and now we're suddenly moms and aunts:)

Yeah I'm gonna be an aunt probably by 20th november. Sigh pretty sad I won't be able to be here when she gives birth..She told me if I happen to be here, she wants me in the room with her to hold her hand when she gives birth. Oh well I'll definitely be there with her in spirit:)And I know Chris will take care of her:)

Ok recollection of the past few days..
Saturday:
Breakfast at Tiong Bahru!:)It was hot and humid and crowded but I wasn't complaining:)Good food and good family company made up for everything:)
Evening mass at St Ignatius was enjoyable..I really miss the big congregations, the singing, and my sister's piano playing:)
And I met S03L at Jack's Place sat night:)Was nice seeing everyone again:)and although it feels just like old times laughing with everyone, it feels different too, cos we're all leading such different lives now..

Sunday:
Weekly sunday brunch with my family:)and I got the chance to catch up with my driving skills again:)somehow it feels a lot less scary driving in singapore now after seeing the scary drivers in sydney:)
Then swimming in the afternoon!:)I really should swim more:)Felt pretty invigorating:)Rounded off the night with a nice dinner with my sis and chris:)

Monday:
Chem eng orientation camp at NUS/sentosa!I'm really impressed with the efforts my NUS class put into the camp:)They really did a great job:)Ha plus I got a free T-shirt and ride to sentosa:)Lotsa silly typical orientation games and it was nice seeing cn5a once again:)Sorry I couldn't stay for fright night but I think you guys really put in a lot of hard work into the camp and I know it was a success:)ha special thanks to yongxiang for letting me be his fellow OGL for the day:)

Tuesday:
Thanks to Jon for helping me lug 4 textbooks all the way to my place:)ha and for the nice book wraps:)I currently have a total of 8 books to contribute to my 30kg limit on the plane ride back:)Yep but I'm now all set for my next muggerish, nerdish semester:)
Ha pigout of the day took place at Marche, followed by Fantastic Four:)I decided that after cycling, kite flying and sentosa, I missed doing normal, boring stuff in singapore as well:)Fantastic Four wasn't a bad movie:)was a bit surprised by how much injected humour there was but thought it was a good touch:)all in all a day of good food, company and small talk:)Sometimes its the simple stuff that make our day:)

Ok gonna give buster his weekly bath that he hates me for, then off to meet the rgs peeps:)see you guys soon!
