*snif*
the flu's baaaack. and tagboard's being a bitch. i might swop to cbox =) we'll seee
i have sent duncan on a mission to procure ice chocolate. the only ice chocolate i'll drink in brissie is the one at the merlos outside the ss&h. other then that, it's ain't worth my 6 bucks. and the one at merlos it's only 3.75. yuuuuuum. and whipped cream. it's the gas whipped kind, with dusted chocolate. can you say yuuuum?
i lub my house now =) anna and dylan and i have dinner together now, and suddenly the atmosphere at home got cozier. like, we eat together and shop together and anna and i yak together (ok, i yak, she listens, but let's not quibble about the details shall we?) i think it was quite a shock for da when she got back home last night. she was the one who suggested that we eat seperately cuz she figures that my groceries bill is expensive and she doesn't want to pay it. which resulted in a chilly, hotel-like house for ages, like, dylan and i feel like we're making too much noise if we eat in the main room, but it's quite lame to eat in your bedroom all the time innit. garh. well, it's nice and rosy warm at home today, i can't wait for dinner, altho i think anna's at work tonight. oh well, even the leaveing of food in the fridge for housemate is cosy and warm. and makes me determined to make extra and have a healthier lunch. oh and lub? articulatory change of a labiodental /v/ to a bilabial /b/ go figure =)

when sondha shouldn't be blogging:
1) when it's 5 am, and she still hasn't done the work she woke up at 2.45 to do
2) when all of america is blogging ( i think ) and the server is kick-the-laptop slow
3) when the crunchy nuts are calling and you should be asleep to ignore the calorie call.
what sondha needs to do: (maybe putting it up will make me accountable... haha a funny thought, indeedy-doo)
1) 1020 lab report
2) MLU assignment (find those 4 references! *panics*)
3) cognitive play test
4) report on congnitive play test
5) auds lab report
6) ling worksheets (yes all 3 suckers)
7) action plan for the exams, they are 2 *read my lips, TWO* weeks away. these are exams of the major kind.
8) oh and report/research/find-out-what-i-have-to-do-activities on the draw a man test (don't ask, and please noooo innuendos.)
now that my organisation notes are done, i can blog in peace. =)
i'm happy. shih hon, i'm ashamed to admit that i think you and pat were right. i had a dinner that kinda put paid to my denial. but i'm happy and contented and all is right in sondha's world*. but this time, on my terms. talk to me soon!
*except for school work by the truckload.
useless fact of the day: it's quite stupid to have the fan on at full blast in winter, but it dries towels very well. but you freeze with blue and yellow fingers, which is not good for typing at the laptop. but crunchy nuts taste good.
sigh, if i can get this published * please blogger, be nice *, i think i'll go and attempt to do my report. and roll nice inari and california sushi for lunch. yum

it's 23 to 7 and i'm supposed to be doing essays.
my whole trip home was surreal. i feel like it never happened, that grandma will be waiting when i come home, the same as she always has. i feel like the mountains of work that i have waiting for me do not exist. i... just feel like the past 12 days have been a void.
i wanna thank (oh, the grammy moment!) shih and pat for my wonderfullest birthday present ever, and the only 21st party i want, and for letting me drag you to watch me salsa. i wanna thank young for the keeping-sondha-sane moments. i wanna thank dot for reminding me that cousins don't have to be in the same school (or class =)) to be close like that used to. i wanna thank all those who came to the funeral, and the many more who kept me and my family in their thoughts and prayers. i also wanna thank and crave forgiveness from the people who i promised to call when i came back, but couldn't/didn't cuz i was caught up with all the arrangements.
hmmm... on to lighter things. 6 weird things about me: gawd this promises to be funny.
1. i am a light heavy sleeper. i can sleep through garbage trucks, electrical storms and opera singing, but turning on the light wakes me up. i also exist on very little sleep (contrary to popular belief). ask SNU, it's tru =)
2. i'm a closet ah lian. blingbling things and techno music make me happy. as do brightly coloured objects. i draw the line at tYpiNG lYkE dIs. but yeah, i've got butterfly on faves in my mp3 player, and i'm not afraid to admit it.
3. i love the fact that i'm chindian. being a product of the two most ancient civilisations in the world just makes me feel like i have to learn all the culture and heritage that is my inheritance. =) i love the fact that i can tie saris and make imperfect cheongsam buttons. i love being able to appreciate palak paneer with my yong chow fried rice. i love looking like i come from anywhere, and i secretly love people asking me where i come from.
okay, it's the next day and i'm back
4. i have a kitchen stuff and household nonesense fetish. and sationery love. one of the things that makes sondha happy definately includes walks at kinokuniya stationery section, trips to popular, and browsing supermarkets, k-marts, targets and robinsons. but i hate to shop for clothes, shoes, and other things, except gadgets. a girl can never have too few gadgets.
5. i procrastinate by planning how not to procrastinate. i spend endless hours avoiding work by mapping intricate action plans on just how i'm going to complete my work. and filing my notes. and buying new stationery cuz the old stuff just won't do (see above) yup, i've elevated procrastination into an art form.
6. err... i used to be goth. like, seriously emo, omg-i-just-want-to-die, all in black kinda goth. hmmm. that didn't last long tho. =)
okies, i tag nette, young and shih! wheeee...

i'm so tired, i could drop right now. but i want to thank all those who have been there for me. you know who you are.
so many things have happened.
firstly, thank you for always staying up to talk, altho i'm sorry if i got you into trouble. late night chats are a boon to the insane.
i feel like i'm living this nightmare again. a different season, a different time, a different continent, but the feeling is the same.
i miss you.
