Looking down when I walk
Gets me home faster.
I find that if I stare at the pavement and play games with it (i.e. only two steps allowed within each cement slab), the walk isn't 15 minutes.
Same thing happens when I walk to uni, but instead of pavement games it's Hamish and Andy on the radio. But there's a risk of looking retarded when I listen to them on my 30 minute walk to uni.
If you drive down Cleveland St going towards City Road, and see a stumpy Asian girl, with messy hair, a bright fuschia scarf, grinning at the pavement -- that's me.

I didn't feel like an idiot today in my political journalism class.
We read everyone's political commentaries, mine was about Anwar (what else could there be?!) and I received some criticism on mine in terms of certain choice of words, but they loved it.
And that is important to me.
For once, I didn't feel like a such a f.o.b (fresh of the boat) alien who looked like she was from China but is actually Malaysian but you can't call her Malay, because that's not what she is.
At least for today, it didn't read 'oh poor thing, she's fumbling up her English words' in their eyes.
Most prolly cause I didn't though.
Haha.
True story :)

I noticed I look at the pavement too but I think it's an inner fear of falling over because I'm so clumsy...I dont know why I do it though. haha Klutz at heart! - LC

I was told, I am politically-clueless so yeah let me read it, I might learn something. I feel embarassed at how socially-clueless I am but how am I meant to know this stuff if I don't watch any TV, read any papers and don't listen to the radio. i've forced myself to read online newspaper each day for a lil bit during lunch...so educate me! :D
I am so tired, I feel like a horrible friend who want to stay home and do nothing than go to a friend's bday dinner tomorrow....horrible horrible friend, so i will drag myself there... *sigh* Hows the uni work going?
