My butt is killing me. Yes I still went out on Valentine's Day despite being single. Well the 4 of us who went out together were all single, so it was like, against the establishment! Though we could only order with Valentine's Day menus at dinner, which didn't really make sense to me.

Oh yeah, but why is my butt killing me? Well we were supposed to go to this car boot sale at East Coast Park (no exercise, xq, that's why I went out even though I didn't go for the Sentosa thing!), then it was suggested that we go cycling. Great idea, with someone who has still not regained her sense of balance. So, we rented a tandem bike. It was actually quite fun, all I had to do was to pedal, and someone else steers for me. But somehow it felt like I was sitting in a car while someone else drove. There was an almost accident at the start, but we got the hang of it. You need chemistry to ride tandem bike ok, and we went quite fast somemore. Haha. So after just 1 hour of cycling, my butt was sore. Old already. Sigh.

Anyway, there wasn't much of a v-day feel to everything other than the dumb v-day menus that serve less than half of the usual stuff. Don't couples out on dates want the same variety of dishes to order from? Oh wait. They should be forced to pay more for less quantity AND quality right. See, this is not a rant against the couples (mainly because I didn't see many) but against the commercialization of this day. Which is, quite irritating, to say the truth.

Ok well, still 10 min before the day ends, so Happy Valentine's Day to all!
(I think i better go buy 4D. I actually updated so fast after my previous post! I'm astounded at myself. LOL.)

I realize i like to blog like tons of entries all at once, then leave this site to itself for another long period, before doing it again. But here i'm just posting my 25 points which I did on facebook. That website is seriously getting addictive. I find myself refreshing it regularly even though I don't do much on it and don't update my profile. Heh.

Ok anyways, here it is! My 25 points:

1. I have officially lost my sense of balance. At least for a few days while this vertigo condition lasts due to a viral infection in my inner ear.

2. Exchange was the best decision I ever made in my undergrad life, with many unexpected results.

3. I used to be such a tomboy in primary school. Blame it on growing up together with mostly boy cousins.

4. I'm glad to be really close to many of my cousins, even now. No lack of movie kakis!

5. I'm quite a procrastinator.

6. I love manga and anime! Yes, i'm a closet otaku. lol

7. I can be quite a snob sometimes.

8. Gossiping is a guilty pleasure.

9. I'm in awe of people who walk out of the house unkempt, because i can never do that.

10. I can be quite a mugger when i want to.

11. I love music, both listening and creating it. And I need it to survive.

12. I dare to say i'm effectively billingual. LOL.

13. Singapore weather sucks. I took 1 whole semester to get used to it after coming back.

14. I like animals, but i don't know how to handle them when they become too friendly.

15. I used to feel lost when i went without my phone for a day.

16. Now I feel lost without my laptop for a day.

17. I don't understand people who wear things with big logos that showcase their affiliation with some organization when there is no need to do so.

18. I love reading. Probably 1 of 2 remaining dinosaurs who go to the library for pleasure reading.

19. I enjoyed reading the twilight series, but i don't know why!

20. I prefer taking the bus to the mrt.

21. I like receiving emails from friends that actually say something. Not regarding projects or chain mails.

22. I'm a gemini.

23. I'm really lazy about exercise.

24. I am a couch potato. Or rather I used to be until youtube and everything else like it was invented. Now I camp in front of my computer.

25. I did this note because people who did it tagged me and I feel bad about not reciprocating. So I shall pass it on! wahahaha.

I think that I have lost interest in blogging.

I could complain that its because I have a monotonous life, but bottom line is that I'm just not doing enough to spice it up so that there are interesting events. Haha. But my other hypothesis (which is being proven on a regular basis) is that when something interesting happens, a faint inkling pops up in my mind, "I could blog about this!" And when I finally reach home and start up the computer, a million things on- and offline distract me, so nothing's posted as well. Procrastinate, much?

I'm sure anyone (if there's anyone left now) who is still checking this blog will be stunned that I actually updated. But well, surprises abound, especially when you are not looking for it. Heh.

Ok I'm supposed to advertise winston's blog. He's doing some module about media, and his project is starting up an anime review blog. Anyone who watches tons of animes and want to review can get in touch with me if you don't know him personally. I'm sure he will welcome the contributions. Lol. Link is up at the sidebar too. Visit please!

On a side note, Japanese lessons are fun! Helps when your table mates are hilarious. And I'm quite amazed that I'm still keeping in touch with those Singaporeans I met from exchange. Like regularly meeting them, even more than friends I used to hang out with before exchange.
