In my efforts to keep the people at home (and fellow uprooted scattered Singaporeans) updated, I shall try to blog more frequently, and less philosophically. Beware: The Mundane ahead.

So today at home, Ness and Timmie made sticky buns. This sounds rather obscene but it's nothing but sugary deliciousness. It's really like a lighter less indulgent version of the cinnamon rolls I love so nearly and dearly from St Cinnamon's before they disappeared off the face of the island. I have included a drool-inducing picture:


The week hasn't been that crazy but due to my fabulous time-management skills I've managed to deprive myself of sufficient sleep since Monday. Finally today with the gorgeous weather (it was SUNNY in MADISON in 'Spring") I got a headache and red eye (singular, not plural). My prof even took pity on me and let me get out of lab early. :o

In other happier news, my ballroom dancing exam went well today! Our instructor treated us to a performance at the end of it. He's such fabulous old gay man (I don't know for sure but I'm pretty certain he is) I love him!



Now wasn't that just darling?

We're learning swing dance next, can't wait :D

It's been a long time since I last wrote here.

Having been living outside of a cave, I have a lot to update. But obviously I won't because I'm too bloody lazy.

Awake at midnight on a school night :O
I haven't had one of those nights in a long time, where I'm kept awake by my thoughts.
It's been even longer since I had one of those night where you're kept awake by someone else's thoughts.
I've been starved of a nice long pensive talk so long I'm resorting to talking to myself... Once again. I used to make tiny revelations daily that made me realise how lucky or unlucky I am... These days I just try to make it to class, to lab, and to bed. (Note the absence of: to gym) All rather meaningless really.

So here I am, the occasional entry, an attempt to inject some pseudo-philosophical larger-than-thou meaning back into my life.

Kept awake by my lack of thoughts.

Sometimes I have to admire Life's sense of humour as much as I hate it.
