i just realised my last post was dec 6. its been such a long hiatus. longer than any other time of hiatus i've had since i started this blog. though i think, this blog is more for me to read back and remember what my life was in the recent past.

what's been going on in my life is that i'm working now. i feel old. i want to go on a graduation trip that doesn't EVER seem to be happening. gosh. getting me started on the whole grad trip fiasco makes me so disappointed. i mean. i couldn't go on one when i graduated, cos, lets face it, none of my friends really graduated. and now, when i actually have the means to go on a really awesome one, NO ONE WANTS TO GO WITH ME. like srsly. i dont know who to be mad at, i dont know who to be upset at. but i am just MAD & UPSET. first it was USA, made me sooooo excited bout the fact that i'm going to be seeing what i see on tv, only this time, i am there and actually seeing it for real. the thought of shopping thrills me, what thrills me even more is how weak the US dollar is now. rallied the group, but it fell apart. the american dream was dashed.

bypassing the random bits of suggestions, europe came along. ah...the ever reliable fallback. the most popular place if i might add, for a higher end uni student getaway. it was almost set, air ticket prices, quotations, planning the route, researching on whats-absolutely-to-see in europe. BUT ONCE AGAIN ... the thoughts of walking the streets of Paris, lounging on the coasts of the Grecian Islands, having tapas in the eateries of Spain, enjoying the ambience on the gondola in Venice, going crazy on the fashion & shops in Milan (maybe i can't afford them, but i can still go crazy about them) and so many more things to do ... WERE NOTHING MORE than a highly stylised mirage.

so the Mayfair and Park Lane of the game of Grad-Trip Monopoly was gone. Still, i'm hoping that at least somehow, i'd be able to get something along the lines of Picadilly or Strand. but after yet another round, i'd be lucky if i could get Old Kent Road or White Chapel Road. The only 2 people left in the game are ramen and i. WONDERFUL.

what happened to EVERYONE?! srsly! why is a grad trip not appealing to anyone at all? why is US and Europe not appealing to anyone at all?! WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY!!!!!!!!

i have to get leave, i have to cfm SOMETHING. i have responsibilities and work to do. but i still have my life to lead. SO PLEASE SOMEONE SOMEWHERE SOMEHOW. please make SOMETHING happen. *whimper*

ok i didn't start of this first-post-after-such-a-long-time intending it to be my complain of why a grad trip is so difficult to organise. i started off wanting to update on what's been going on.

on a happier note. KE soccer guys managed to get through to semi-finals on the top of the pack in the group rounds. it was against sheares and kr, and they won both! against sheares 2-0, against kr 1-0. good for them!

ok. i shall stop these few mins of blogging now. SIGH.
