15 minutes to lunchtime.

Its been a good start to the semester so far..current plenary is on dieting and metabolism. kinda interesting so far..not too info-heavy but at the same time not too lack-of-detail:) Just ended communications tutorial on attraction. I think my scenario group is a really interesting group of people..such a variety of colourful personalities. We were shown a tablefull of photos..all pretty artistically taken and asked to choose one that we were attracted to..I chose this photo of an old couple:) not just because it looked sweet..in fact it looked kinda sad cos the old lady looked like she was sick :P but I guess it just called out to me:)

Haha Pei chose a photo of a railway track..leading into the light. Yeah the "light-at-the-end-of-the-tunnel" kind of picture..but then how do you know the light at the end of the tunnel's not a train? haha. or how do you know you're not gonna get run over by a train from behind? I guess that's life. You don't know what to expect. You either see the light or get run over by a train. Haha Pei said he liked the symmetry of the photo:)

anyway, like I said its not been a bad start to the start of this semester so far:) not much work yet so I splurged a little last night..had dinner with gloria and ollie at chopsticks, the thai restuarant up at randwick ritz..food was decent but a little on the pricey side..but it was nice just spending some time with them:) I really enjoy time with them but don't get to see them that much during classes..but I suppose its good in a way that I get to meet other people as well:) They were contemplating whether or not to indulge in ice-cream after dinner..we happened to be talking about "signs" during dinner so gloria said she'd eat ice cream if a red car passed by. And at that instance two red cars drove past. Haha so guess that meant a double scoop. I guess I do believe in signs. But I also believe its up to the person, and whether or not he or she wants to conceive in something happening as a sign.

Haha take the simple act of wanting to buy a packet of potato chips. There's only one packet left on the shelf. You can choose to see that as sign that you should buy it, cos you're lucky enough to be able to buy that last packet. Or you could conceive it as you shouldn't buy it, cos that last packet looks kinda dented and squashed and not very attractive. Ok anyway sorry I've blabbered on enough. Time for lunch:)

Oh right and I watched Howl's moving castle last night after dinner. Kinda abstract..but I guess like the issue with signs, you can choose to see it as abstract, or just a simple story of love:) then again love is never exactly simple.

I miss my family. Take care, everyone back home:)
