One Year Ago Today..

i was crying my heart out because
my UK visa got rejected.
then two weeks later i was on a plane
and here i am.

i can't believe in two weeks' time,
i would have been here for a year already.

how crazy is that?!

so it's been a week on,
and still nothing that amazing's happened.

well at least i had some human interaction
last week when Jay and i *finally* went
to watch TheDarkKnight.

and wow (:

lovedlovedloved it.

i absolutely loved the twists and
it would've been the perfect movie if
Batman's voice wasn't so annoying all the time.

but still, that was a crazy good movie.

so in effort to lead a more interesting life
(because all i do is sleep and work now)
i am going to take up knitting.

(: we'll see how that goes huh?

anyway i woke up last week without hearing
in my right ear and it's been almost a week
and my ear is still malfunctioning.
i guess i should go see someone but..

1. it doesn't hurt.
2. i have partial hearing in the ear now.
3. if i lose it, i have another ear.
4. i hate doctors.

yup, all lousy excuses for my laziness (:

so hey i've been back 2 weeks and i'm
already making plans for further travel already.

i am missing home terribly lately
and my first/second trip will DEFINITELY
be one to home because for real,
there is only so much time one can take
without being able to eat ngau hor okay.
(or nasi lemak. or cheecheongfun. or charkueyteow.
you get the drift.)

but i have exciting plans in the air
and i really really want to go visit some people.

oh yeah.
i gave up watching TV.
i know, far cry from the Sammie that
watched 14 shows a week last year.
but i realised that half the shows i watch
are full of crap and really,
i would like to think i have better things to do.
(which i really don't right now, hence the new hobby.)

so i've ordered like 10 books off Amazon
and i'm reading Screwtape Letters now
by CSLewis (did you know he's from belfast?)
and WOW, it's an amazing book.

4 and 1/2 weeks to class.
come on already!

So hello.

yup, haven't been blogging for the longest time.
maybe its because i've taken up
journalling instead or because right now,
my life isn't exactly exciting.

i wake up, go to work, come home, sleep.
that's about it.

yup, a far cry from life in the US.

its weird, cause in the US
im ALWAYS surrounded by people
and you never EVER are alone
but since my housemates hvn't moved in yet
im alone again all the time.

but yeah, i think i'm handling it pretty well.
or i hope.

something exciting better happen soon.

my past three months can be summed up
by the six photo albums that i just uploaded
on Facebook.

and that's a QUARTER of
the photos i have.

craziness.

go look and comment!

im back in Belfast.

and Internetless.

so all other updates/photouploadings
when i get it yes?

i am dang tired.

goodnight and goodbye.
