musings...

Was supposed to attend this dialogue sessions with french pple who are interested in coming to singapore for exchange..... in the end none of them turned up and eric and i ended up talking to the organiser instead. French pple are soooo LAME. oh god. seriously

quite excited about the upcoming trips i have.... i've developed a new philosophy. I'm going to explore other parts of France, instead of jetsetting to other places.... i've realised that i know so little of this country that i've been staying in for the past 4months... i think it'll be nice. Going to Avignon this saturday.... and then to Normandy and Brittany the following weekend..... and to Corsica some time later.... and i dun even mind going alone.... like waiting for other pple's replies seriously takes too long and i dun really have the patience to wait. If anyone wants to join me tell me NOW!

French classes are getting more and more boring and i am so tempted to skip it now. We used to have so much fun during the intensive course but now i just cant be bothered.... like we can spend 2 1/2 hours watching a documentary and do comprehension after that, or spend the same amount of time debating about nonsense topic like the influence of media.... but i like it that i am the teacher's pet....

OOOH and french pple (in fact everyone else other than singaporeans) have NEVER seen the thing that we use to file stuff... the white flat wire thing that we use after we punch hole. They are so AMAZED at that thing (that me and my sis affectionately call "french fries" when we were young.) DAMN DUMB!!! and they asked me where i got them and i said back home.... i should have brought more over and give them as souvenirs cos i forgot to bring anything to give anyone here.... and someone should come up with a name for this thing!!!

During summer now, there's always this white cotton-y stuff which i think is dandelions flying everywhere.... it looks like its snowing, only that its not. and its quite irritating cos i scared i will inhale them.... and then there are these field flies that are very irritating also. the down side of summer.

And then i realised that i am only 9 weeks away from BBQ chicken wings, beef hor fun, carrot cake, roti prata, hokkien mee and my nice comfortable bed with no snoring and access to bittorent. And as a matter of fact, i cant wait to go home. I love it here... but i think it's enough. So i'm pleased to tell you i'm flying back on the 29th June....!!! and reaching on 30th! Oh god i cant wait.
