it's strange how people can dun meet for years...and then when finally do meet up, endless topics can still flow on naturally. just like dinner tonight (actually..it's last nite...) meeting up with fellow MOH scholars from La Trobe was great fun...and kinda reminds me that time has indeed flown by. haven't seen zaneta in 3 years! and yet when the 5 of us sat down and talked, we can talked about everything and anything.

and also, for once in a long time, i am the youngest of the group, the 小妹. not the "guru", not the "genius", not "role model", not "the senior"...just ME. ahh...to be free of responsibilities of being the elder one. so sick of being the one who "knows it all", cos i dun "know it all" and i am not a "genius", not a "guru" and definitely dun wanna be regarded as a "role model". i just wanna be Gretel. simple, plain Gretel...a girl who needs and wants the things every other girl needs or wants.

also finished watching the taiwanese drama Ruby lent us. although i am no fan of taiwanese dramas (except for 还珠), this was quite an ok one. slow...but romantic and kinda freakish..haha. the ending was quite abstract though...and being an idiot at interpreting hidden meanings, i felt abit lost. then again, i'm just glad that the ending was not sad. and i'm glad i am not obssessed with the guy in the show. for the first time, i can watch a drama without going ga-ga over the guy..haha.

gin and yivern's unannounced visit put a pretty full stop to my friday night. with the two of them sitting on my bed and chatting, i felt peaceful. it's the BIG partee tomorrow. i am kinda excited for the bday girls...but i myself am just a teensy bit worried about it. sociophobic side of me starting to freak out about the need to socialise.

my nagging cough is causing me chest pain...and my cough is starting to sound like a seal "honking". *cough cough* argh...but yivern and gin are so sweet. they brought me medicine for my cough *sniffle* thank you!!!

feeling tired, but the huge iced mocha i had after dinner is keeping me up. though i should do some work since i can't sleep, but my chest hurts too much. gonna lie in my bed and curl up under my quilt..and hopefully, exhaustion would overcome the caffeine effect in my body.

still longing for that hug that would make my sickness a little bit easier to bear with. *cough cough*
