New Experiences
One week on and the workload seems... okay. I mean, I still feel a little stressed out with all the readings that I haven't caught up on, but it's not all that bad.

Today has been an interesting day so far, in that I did things that I normally wouldn't have done. Like going to Orchard at 8am, for instance. Caught the 7am 502 bus, which I thought I would be late for but wasn't. It started raining really heavily at around 7.20am when the bus was in Jurong East area, and it persisted all the way to Orchard. Got off at the Lucky Plaza stop, but on hindsight 502 probably stops at Heeren as well and I should have got off there instead cos I wanted to go to Cineleisure. =.= So I walked through the underpass up to Taka and it was really kinda eerie. I mean, Orchard Road should never be this quiet.

So what was I doing at Orchard Road so early on a Saturday morning? A result of group members' strange schedules. We were supposed to meet yesterday afternoon in school but it turned out only Xinyi and I could make it. So yeah. D: That left today because the assignment is due on Monday.

After that went for the 10am Spectrum TV meeting at *scape, which was interesting because I've never been into the building before. I always thought it was just kinda there, never thought I'd actually go in. Turns out to be a pretty nice place, just don't go to the first floor toilet because it smells weird. Anyway I'm kinda glad I made the decision to join something new and meet new people, do things I wouldn't normally have done. It makes me feel happy to think I'm not wasting my time away in school. At least I'm out there being a part of something. I'm done with isolating myself, hoping things would miraculously turn out better, because it won't, not on its own. I have to take action, be brave, take a stab in the dark and throw myself off the precipice of caution.

I'm blogging this from Coffee Bean @ Taka right now. Wanted to get some work done, but I really am in no mood to do any studying. Besides, I didn't bring any of my notes/textbooks. Which is an excuse for me to catch up on my J-dramas. MWAHAHA! What an extravagant waste of laptop battery. >.< I'm just waiting for about 12.30pm anyway, which is coming in a few minutes so I guess it's not that much of a waste, haha. Going to Yi Han's house to play mahjong later. Actually I feel kinda guilty cos I should be at home studying or something (yeah I'm a nerd), but I haven't played mahjong in aeons so I guess it's okay? LOL.
