always at bed time

it's always at bed time that i cannot sleep. gargh..

anyway, i thought i'd take the time to just give this good ol' blog of mine some love since it hasn't seen a rant in awhile. firstly, adelaide is awesome and i love it!! i wish that certain few people back home could come and experience it even of it's for a bit.

but i came in winter. it's was really really hard for me and i fell sick on the very first night that i was here. it didn't help that i came in the dead of winter and it was FREAKING cold. but spring is on it's way and there are flowers that are blooming in my garden already. i'm hoping that this is a short winter. *fingers crossed*

another thing about coming in winter was that everyone, every single one, told me that i would put on a heap of weight. no congratulations there cause i lost weight. maybe it's got to do with me wanting to eat maggi goreng sooooooooo bad that everything looks and tastes not so good. idontknowwhatever.

besides the weather, i guess the food is another shocker. hahaa.. there's like a list of things that i've been longing to eat and i'm gonna make friends with whoever knows how to cook them. and the list at the moment is: 

1) MAGGI GORENG

2) sweet and sour pork

3) ayam masak merah

4) ah yee loh shi fun which if i don't mind replacing with:

5) claypot loh shi fun

6) asam freaking laksa

7) chee cheong fun

8) IKAN KELI

ok lah, i could go on but then, it will never end. food aside, i'm starting to really miss salon life. i'm now missing those customer that come in at 6pm for a cut and colour knowing full well that we close at 7pm. the only part that sucked was that i did not get paid. i'm trying, but still haven't got a job at any of the hair shops here and i heard that it's impossible.

i've been having really good exercise in the form of clubbing. i go two/three times a week. i don't drink as much though. owh, i don't really have my own friends. the people i go out with are basically jujube's friend's and i tag along with jujube for the very fact that i cannot make my own friends. this is the scary bit, in my diploma days, it was only in my 4th semester that i made actual friends. that's a year plus. so, eik.... idontwannatalkaboutitalready.

classes gave me a shocker. i don't know if it's because i'm rusty and have been out of it for a year or because i'm just not smart. i got a scare last week when i went for my first lecture. but i think that i need to let it sink in and then i'll feel better about it. hopefully, that helps me do better to. speaking of me not feeling smart, i was told last night that i'm "too witty". i'd say "gee thanks" but apparently it's not a good thing. 

that's really funny because i don't think i'm all that witty to start with. i mean, it's just so different here in that sense. i wonder what afie would be if i'm "too witty". she be like like like........like like like........*insert appropriate terminology for that which describes a higher intensity of  "too witty"* 

well, maybe it just caught me off guard cause no one has said that to me before. at least it flushed all that dumb shit thoughts that i was having of myself after my first week of lectures.

i think that's all the rant i have in me for tonight. and i really should get to sleep. i do not want to start slacking in this uni as well. wheeeeee.. off to bed i go.

truly,aly
