Earl Grey

when i first heard this song i kind of dismissed basement as just another washed-up pop punk band but after i listened to the whole album 'i wish i could stay here' i realised the beauty of it.... i read a chapter of a book without understanding the whole story

updates on life!

it's been a wonderful week, i've been preparing for exchange and meeting up with frenss and today i finally held my passport with my visa in it in my hands! it's been a long painful process of admin preparation and paying huge painful admin fees all in order to get this visa, and i finally have it!! today is such a happy day. i thank God for the successful process. there were days when i couldn't sleep properly because i was having bank account application problems and worrying that i wasn't going to get my visa in time, but thank heavens.

last wednesday i was desperate so i prayed to God to please let me get my visa on thursday, and... the approval e-mail really came on thursday. hmmm.

i realised i haven't talked about the gig i had on 26 jan. it was really fun, definitely my favourite set out of all sets i've played, cos pop punk and heavy stuff hehe. plus it's always fun to play with friends instead of people you've just met. sadly turnout wasn't substantial, definitely cos of bad timing (it was the day before lunar new year eve) and poorly planned publicity, but oh wells. 自己爽

on sunday i also went back to school so we could re-record our set for fun, and it was gr8, we had supper like we always do after gigs and jams and i felt a little sad cos it's my last supper with them till august at least. but yknow, i bet time is gonna fly by and tomorrow i'll be like omg it's august and i'm back from exchange

also had dinner yesterday with melons (bak kut teh!! i'm gonna miss bak kut teh like crazy, it's one of my favourite sg foods) and had a mini celebration for wumsy who turns 22 today. happy birthday jiams!!!! love you ❤️

i've been doing some planning for europe travels and it's so stressful tho i haven't really done much. but i'm sure it's gonna be all worth it.

meeting the fellow nus to konstanz kids tomorrow for lunch. hope we mesh well so we can be future travel buddies hehe.

i still can't believe it's the last few days leading up to my exchange in germany. literally spent years planning from this, since i applied for LPP in like... june or july 2014? it's crazy. i feel like this is gonna be the highlight of my life since after this i'll just come back and start mugging to pull cap in year 4, and then it'll be time to hit the workforce... then working life... much dread.

speaking of working life, internship officially ends in 2 days! really.... damn fast... "i can't believe it" is probably the catchphrase on my blog now

but i still need to go back to return the access card, shag.

okay time to sleep good night!
