Leticia

Me: Meeepsss! I wanna tell you something.

Meeps: Wads!??

Me: You know, there is a Leticia nurse on my ward.

Meeps: Really ah? Does she speak like Leticia? By the way, do you know Leticia broke up with Terry?

Leticia Bongnino and (ex) boypren Terry

Me: Really!??! How do you know?

Meeps: Michelle Chong said one..

Me: Ohh.. eh, my point is.. this Leticia on the ward. Guess what.

Meeps: What!

…. ahhahahaha.. I shall not even mention here!

The clarity

Because I am in North West Surrey. Because I am working 9 to 5. Because I have hardly time for myself. Because of the time zone difference. Because of the slow hospital accommodation internet.

I have yet to catch even a match so far at Melbourne Park. Devastating?

Not really. At least the semi finals are consisting of the Top Four men.

1000th match on tour!

I think tomorrow would be the most nerve-wrecking match to watch! I really wonder (but dare not hope) who would make it through.

That aside. Life has been.. hmm.. I don’t know how to describe to the exact precision. I should be full blast studying.. I am studying more than usual, yes.. but I am still reading plenty on Kindle. I should dedicate a whole post on rekindled love towards reading soon… another day.

‘Til then.. a haiku for you..

Winter comes and goes
I have forgotten you much
So please let me go

Happy ‘dragon’ CNY 2012

Happy CNY 2012 to all and everyone.

It is yet another new year in the chinese calendar. It is the season to eat and be merry – but for me, this is my 3rd consecutive year away from home and a total of four CNYs away from home. In addition to the 3 prominent non-celebratory CNYs, the number comes up to a total of 7 non-CNY in my life. That is about one third to a quarter of my life (my math is lousy – don’t bug me for the actual percentage).

So, really.. CNY isn’t a big deal to me anymore. It used to be all fun because of new clothes, shoes and carbonated drinks. Nowadays, I buy clothes and shoes any time throughout the year. There is no more “CNY only can drink Coke” business anymore.

I guess I’ve grown up. The most I did was to don a red top today. I was greeted by plenty of ward jobs. Geez.

It is alright. I don’t think it matters.

However. Having said that. I welcome all angpaos!

Stressful

I never fancied planning trips. But one has got to learn to grow up, doesn’t she? It is even more stressful when you’re taking a huge risk not knowing if you could actually make it. But faith is what we should be having..

And I hope that all turns out well.

Cheers!

CNY soon?

Wow, time flies! The year of the dragon is coming very, very soon! As for many who may be banking on some extra cash – go do some Banquet Staff Jobs or something..

As for me here in London, it is just another weekend for me. I think the most important thing to do is to avoid Chinatown during this season for fear of overcrowding.. I think the most celebratory thing is to drink Fruli in a rather pathetic hospital accommodation.

Errr then.. how do I tapao the duck then?!?!
