Haven't been here for ages. Here's what happened to me.

I went to S'pore and was checked into a Girls' Hostel and enrolled into a Girls' School and was told that everything i want i have to claim/apply/write in three days/two weeks before I want it. Everything went against my nature, and I was trying to breathe, move, talk, laugh, study all at the same time while I don't feel like it. Of course, after a while, I'd learn my way around, and got myself out of a few sticky application formality shit. Like, for example, my online account, I told the hostel it was an emergency (which, of course it was! i haven't been online for a month because of the stupid application stuffs, anyway, i got my student pass that day) that I have an online test due the next day and need to go online ASAP to finish it. They scolded me and i went up to my room, only to be paged down to the office again to be told that my account has been created. Around three mins. And it says that if we write in, it takes three days to process!!!

Those are the moments you'll feel proud of being a M'sian.

But not everything can be done that way, for example to bypass curfew, to stay out during the night or simply to go back during holidays. We just have to inform two weeks before the actual date, or there can be no guarantee that we'll get out. Which is, if you ask me, ridiculous. They're creating so many paperwork for themselves that they take so long to process a single piece of simple request of going out after curfew! Why do we need paperwork for borrowing the vacuum cleaner, I ask you? And yet we do! Anyway, these things are the reason why ppl turn crazy. Inefficiency, if you ask me.

Now that I'm back.

I'm going out with my friends and party all day long. I not the kind of people who can stay cooped up for long. Plus, i really need to relax and have fun, some thing really hard to do in s'pore. And of course, to be around normal huuman beings, instead of robots. Life sucks, but sometimes, it rocks too. I haven't settled all my essays, hoomeworks, assignments yet .... that's the sad part. But we can always ignore them, can't we? lol. In short, I'm just happy to be back. Despite the mosquitoes, weather, bumpy roads... it's more human. And anyway, this is how I grew up, I should be proud of it.

Chinese New Year is as usual. Lots of people, lots of food, heat, sweat, boredom. I mean, that's probably what you get when you try to make people who only meet once a year come together and well, meet, right? We don't even know each other that well anymore. But still, it was more fun at the kampung, the town people keep asking about Singapore, and saying things like i should come back if I can't take it because it's really tough. I mean, it's my life, right? And they don't even know me, what gives them the right to comment about my life even??? Would i even need their permission to come back? Hell no. That's why I hate CNY. But it's nicer back at the kampung because we're closer to them, of course, still not very close, but, you know, they're friendlier and very helpful, like they try to pack lots of cakes and biscuits for me to bring to S'pore because they think i looked thinner ... But yea, can't finish so much stuffs anyway, gotta leave some at home.

Have to bathe now, MP is waiting... Got lots of homework to do when I get back! But who gives a damn.
