Eventful Yesterday

Woke up early to do laundry and cleaning of room.

Went to school for an hour of chat with Lovefy.

Went to Majorstuen and window shopped at GUESS and ZARA. Fruitful reward at H&M :)

Sidenote 1: We concluded that European countries are anti-American products. Guess in Oslo is totally OVERPRICED! "Totally" is understated. A pair of jeans easily costs 400SGD and a denium pencil skirt is 380SGD. Shopping is so NOT FUN in Oslo...

Sidenote 2:So sad that I didn't go Spain with the girls, because I can barely afford anything in Zara here. It's not expensive, but not reasonable either. A pair of pumps ranges from 150SGD to 300 SGD.

Went to watch CAR RACING d.o.w.n.s.t.a.i.r.s. Yesh. Remember there's a turf club next to my domitory? And it actually held a car racing event! Fantastic! Nic and I were having fun taking pics with the various TYPES of cars. Believe it or not, the ah-gongs and ah-mahs took part in the race! Racing off with their coolest and polished vintage precious... ...



Guess this car's brand...


Ta-dah!


We vroom-vroomed in this after an offer by a friendly 65-and-above-looking ah-gong.


A pic taken after much considerations and hesitations...


And the day ended with nice movie gathering with some MS laydees at Youie's room! Devil wears Prada. Finally. It was a preparation movie for 3 of us before we stepped onto the fashion ground -> Par-hee

All-In-One Box

Cindy's most awaited DHL box came yesterday.

When Mel and I went to her room to retrieve our stuffs from home, we are stunned at her door. She'd unpacked all the things in her box and her floor is practically FILLED! So many food displaying on the floor.. its ALOT ALOT of food.

Tibits are totally uncountable. There are even MOONCAKES and PAPER LANTERNS and CANDLES! We're going to celebrate Mid-Autumn Fest here:) Totally excited. Her family even bought vegetarian mooncake for me *touched*. Her mum even prepared veggie canned food! Not to mention the different sauces - curry, bak-gu-teh etc. Amazing. Wendy was even more amazing to squeeze in SO MANY ga-zillions items!

We left her room with tibits and sweets and milo packets in our hands. *heh heh*

LoveFy's handmade A4 card was really sweet, though I think the photos of me are quite buang. It's faithfully hanged above my study table. A bit sad though that he forgot to send me pics of my family. The task shall be passed to adorable Miss Fatty. Miss Fatty actually sent her fave highlighter when I requested for my fave color one. I felt a bit piang when I saw the kiddy 2-color highlighter. But she's sweet to send me SO many hairpins. Or was it mummy dearest's idea? So many hairclips that Cindy asked for one to DIG HER EARS!

Totally cool to have things sent here from home... So many surprises... Cindy is one lucky girl:) Her friends are too under her influence!

Just a passing comment....

Kill me. Just use any clean and sterilised weapon and end my life. Actually, a temporary death will suffice.

Cant wait for this CORTURE lecture to end.

What the hell is corture? Beats me when I first heard it. Guess the word. It's CULTURE. My goodness. I know my Engrish sucks but I don't think my hearing fails me as yet. Seriously, the ang-mohs are so energetic and spontaneous to discuss in groups about a task that he just assigned. Cindy is lovingly creating a wallpaper of her sweet moments with her darling while I was surfing the net and of course, using the discussion time to BLOG.

I will try to upload many many pretty pictures taken with the pretty ladies in Gothenburg.. soon. Very beautiful city and entertaining trip. Dawn's saying " Procrastination is my friend". It sure is becoming a friend of mine too...

Back to discussing Hofstede's study of National Cultures. My course is "Scandinivian Culture and Worklife". Feeling cheated to sign up for this course.
