did half a day of shopping at oxford circus in the morning till afternoon.. it was quite a madness out there, but it ain't all a surprise as the great singapore sale kinda matches up to the post xmas shopping craze out here. the only interesting thing that happened was that some idiot knocked over some cap in zara at regent street, set off fire alarm and caused pandemonium in the store itself. ended up i couldn't really go check out the merchandise not to mention the loss in revenue of the zara people. the only people rejoicing is actually the workers coz they can really slack. hahaa oh well i went on a small spending spree and got nothing i actually i wanted. just got things i wanna buy on impulse and impulse i followed.
xmas had been damn boring this year, basically spent it resting and trying to recuperate from the ski trip. the night was spent at evelyn gardens with a potluck among the freshers, pretty cool event i shall say, tasted everyone's file culinary skills.. and my white chocolate vanilla cream liqueur was commented to taste like tao ni (soya bean) which i couldn't agree more with. however it taste nicer than tao ni.
more abt the ski trip.. it had been so fun.. it started with the first few days in which everyone had trouble putting on their skis and trying to understand what it means by going downslope, maintaining balance all.. pretty memorable first hand experience at skiing i shall say..
however after a few days of practicing and honing our turning skills everyone progressed to the tougher blue slopes and started to look like proper skiiers. towards the end most of the people are already whacking red slopes and looking damn pro. this ski trip had been most memorable at best. i definitely didn't want to come back to london towards the end... the feeling is such that u had just acquired a new skill, wanna test it out and explore all possibilities but suddenly u have to come back and face the real world all over again. that sucks max..
anyway i will definitely go back next year.. it had been so fun.. that is kinda the lifestyle i look forward to, wake up early, eat good breakfast, exercise the whole day. eat another 2 healthy meals and seek entertainment at night. sooo fun! hahaa ok i want nxt yr to come quick..
i hope really that i am making full use of my time right now.. this holidays have been heavenly compared to term time.. it is just totally abt play and play and play nowadays... not much work to be done and all.. totally cherish that. i guess the only time i will start working is when i come back from the next trip...
independence... how far am i from that word.. i want to know.. am i independent when i am thrown out into foreign land and no means to communicate with love ones.. or am i independent when i know what is right and what is wrong? i guess it is a bit of both.. shit.. i am turning 22 soon.. oh well.. that's life ain't it..
