I'm not dead, I'm still alive

Guess what I did for the last 3 hours? Playing poker on Facebook while reading Huining's blog. It's like, what, 4 months since i last visited her blog... It was a pleasant surprise to know that she loved Paris, as lots of my friends dream to put their feet on the French soil but they can only browse through pics from the net, rather than really experiencing it. By reading her blog, memories of my friends from my school days came back to life.
Anyway, I finally got my hands on the internet this weekend, after some touturous weeks without decent internet connection. Well, since I paid 20€ for the train to come back to Lyon, not to mention that I have to pay another amount to get back to Marseille, I had to take advantage of this. Other than that, I did some shopping, as it's the sales in France at this moment, and some online shopping too, got influenced by Chuntah with his cool shades, and seriously I'm sick of my paria GF FERRE. I bought 2 pairs of Diesel online, hope to get it before my trip back to Malaysia so that i can show off a bit ;D, it would be cool!!! Also, i belanja Chuntah and Yizhou nasi kandar, they were so kind to let me keep my stuff in their house for the summer, with the amount of my stuff (esp my shoes and clothes) it took up half their space... Well FYI, I'm actually a SDF now (in french, it means without fixed home), that's why I have to ma fan so many people.
Well, tomorrow i have to take my train back to Marseille to finish my internship. Fun it is, I find it somehow quite stressful, as acne has been popping out non-stop since the last 2 weeks, after a real long absence. Arghhh.. It's really getting on my nerves. Hmm, or maybe i should blame it on the super-duper hot weather in the south, or perhaps the over-dosed-with-dirt air in the industrial zone, or the stinky bad aura of those Marseillais? Well, gotta find a solution fast! People like me, 靠脸吃饭的 , if no solution tho gai liao...
There's just so many things I've gotta do before going back home, especially buying gifts. Sorry for those not in my list, I can't get everyone presents as it would cost me a fortune, plus i don't have much time to do all the shopping. Pay 10 lifes also not enough. Paiseh paiseh. Recently, I've been thinking about home, family and those good old days with all my friends, so for those whom i've lost contact with, just remember that I remember you...

There's just too many ups and downs in life, and one day they bring back fond memories, no matter how sweat or how bitter they might be.

Why does everyone keeps complaining of being busy???

Busy, busy, busy… That’s the only thing in my life at the moment. I’m starting to lose my goal bit by bit as my current life is taking a toll on me. I’ve just too many things to do. Can you imagine having tests every Friday? Once you finish a Friday, the next Friday is waiting for you around the corner. That means by the time you wanted to take a break, it’s already time for you to prepare for your next test.

Furthermore, the ‘Semaine Asiatique’ translated into ‘Asian Week’ will be held this week, in which I’m helping with the food (and video games, perhaps). I initially was kinda reluctant to take part; however I thought that it should be a head start to get my social life back on track. Thus, I think sacrificing a week of studies and getting bad marks is unavoidable, since I already got used to the bad marks part.

Well, since I’m busy, busy, busy… I don’t really have time going on babbling… Plus, I lost an hour today and it made me so frustrated.

Till then, signing off... lost.

Friends always ask me when am i going back home again. My reply is most of the time: i don't know, most probably the coming summer, or who knows i might wana go visit some other place during that particularly precious holidays.
My initial plan for my summer 2008, when the school season started last september, was a visit to China, since the Olympics will also be held there. However, for all the hellish life in this f@#king uni that i've chosen to enter, things have changed. The 'miss-home syndrome' finally attacked me. That's why i'm determined more than ever to go home when i get the chance.
Apart from that, i'm so looking foward to meeting my lovely sis again, after a year and a half. It will be 2 years when summer comes again. To my sis, i hope everything's fine with your new uni life, and be strong.
I just chatted with a friend living in Malaysia, and there is this 'being jealous of me' issue that keeps bugging me once in a while since the last 2 years. 'Wow, you're in France, so much fun, so good, you're so lucky..' kinda thing. The fact that i'm kinda stuck overseas make the fact that being overseas isn't that much fun anymore. Mind that i can't go home whenever i want, weekends are impossible and normal holidays are too short, unlike you guys. I'm sure those friends stuck in overseas will have the same view as mine. It's kinda sad that i've missed my cousin's wedding last december, and also 3 chinese new year occasion. Though i can't deny that what i'm doing now is a once in a life time chance that i will cherish for the rest of my life. My point is there are pros and cons whichever path you take, that something has to be sacrificed whatever choice is made. This is also a post to remind myself... So, be grateful for the choice you had and for what you have chosen.

Till then, signing off with a lazy mind, having an extra day off next monday for easter.
