I've left the blog idle again, probably because of the lack of free time I used to have. Everyone's been busy of late. The fellas in school have their Mid-year exams in May and the rest in university and college are working towards the end of the semester. I'm counting down the days to the end of the study year. In 40 days, I would be in the car on the way to a "Mamak" restaurant, I hope.
They've built several water tanks in the hostel which eases our suffering. If only I had a few million USD, I could be doing my degree abroad. Damn those spoilt brats! They fare miserably in school but Sugar Daddies bails them out by sending them abroad to a University they don't deserve to be in, living a life they did not earn. While the rest of us whose parents believe in earning everything you get, will make you work and go through unusual hardship.
Bayern Munich was drawn together with Manchester United in the Quarter Finals of the Champions League. That should be an interesting match.
Back to Labuan... it's pathetic. These two people in my batch whom I know very well is getting really close. I'd rather stay away from them than hang around those two two solemn looking people that ignore my every word or enjoy having a go at me when I say something. Schmucks! It's not that I don't take it personally, but my comebacks will hurt you on the inside. Because I always back up what I say.
I feel so much better when I'm not around them.
It's sad to say it, but those two are my friends.
On the domestic front, Ding Sheng is going to UQ next semester, the university I was set to go to last year. The drought back home is still going on. Not good.
Guess it's been an energy-sapping month with it's lows and occasional highs. But I'm still doing what I do best - having fun and performing well!

Chelsea WAGS
John Terry was sacked from his post as England Captain. Yes it's an old story and many are divided over whether he did it or not. Some would say yes, he shagged Wayne Bridge's ex and that's why they broke up. And some say no. It's pretty simple really, if he didn't do it he would have just said "No, I didn't do it".
Ashley Cole, as brilliant a left-back he is for England and Chelsea is not that sharp outside football. He's married to a hot celebrity called Cheryl Tweedy and yet he cheats on her and sends a nude picture of himself to a model. Cheryl doesn't deserve him.

Sore Throat
The Chinese New Year holiday was too short. One week is not enough to gain the 5 kilos I lost since the first semester. Nor was it enough time to rest my foot.
I'm in the library. I've decided to ditch my role as a 'lamp-post' and watch things develop from the sidelines. What I mean is the drama happening around me is creeping closer and closer and I'm trying to avoid becoming one of the main characters.
Lin asked if I'm jealous. I'm raking my brain for the answer because I pay very little attention to what I think of the situations around me.
No not really.
For Man United and Liverpool fans who are sick of your American owners, if you want to boycott them - stop buying their merchandise. Original merchandise that is. It'll hurt the Americans badly because that is the main source of the clubs revenue. That and the money received from ticket sales.
I just want to the team out of debt.

When you're bored and hungry
I was out of food in my bag. This meant eating in the canteen again. Rice is not life neither is life rice.
I'm currently listening to Rufus Wainwright's version of Hallelujah, wicked stuff.
When you're bored and hungry, you don't think. You do something about it. So I took the next bus into town alone. Honestly, when you're starving you don't give a thought whether you are going alone or who's free, shut up think for yourself and get some bloody food... bloody food(sounds Scottish, sheep's stomach anyone?)
Checked out the library in Labuan. It looks alright though the books are old and are just chucked or crammed into the very few shelves there. Bad organisation, not ideal for readers to navigate through. One thing I've learnt here in Borneo is that the people are very impractical.
Here are some pictures of the library

What the 'eck is that?
No kidding, there are men that actually wear that!
I went to the only place which has a KFC and Pizza Hut in Labuan. Writing it only made me rue staying here and not going out for a Hawaian Chicken. I'm going there tomorrow so no worries. Anyway, I went with Honey, Abby, Lin and Jacq. The others were unavailable.
Honey had problems with her new cell phone(again). I never knew there were such things as Blueberry phones. Hmm, what about Nonias? I miss hanging out with Gajen , Ding and Alan because girls can shop in any place as long as it has clothes in it, you can't get them out.
It's Labuan, I still don't get it. So I asked Honey why do girls spend so much time shopping and here's how one of the conversations went
H: when you have a girlfriend, you'll appreciate it. Don't you want them to look good for you?
C: we're in Labuan, how does it matter?
H: okay, when YOU'RE back in Penang...
C: IF I had one, why can't I just let her shop alone?
H: Because IF you had one, you have to be there!
C: Naah, if so, I'll just give her my wallet - that is when I'm working, and let her go wild (I wished I didn't say that)
H: What if they need your opinion on something? YOU HAVE TO BE THERE!!
Honey walked pass a mannequin wearing a hideous dress...
H: See, is this what you want your wife or girlfriend to wear?
C: It's her choice, I can't force her to wear something she's not comfortable in...
H: That's not the point (Followed by a 5 minute lecture on girls)
C: hmm Guess your right... why are you telling me this? I'm not getting you anything.
H: ~Hearty Laugh~ I'm trying to teach you
C: Ok Guru.
Here's a highly amusing umm event that happened involving Honey, Said, Kuberan and I. It was the end of the term, we were in one of those shops where you can find 'anything you need', in other words a deco shop. Said was going crazy with hat and wig in it and was trying all of them on.
Honey was fascinated by ladybird (murial?? it's the one with things hanging from above, geesh I need remedial English!)...
S: I like this wig. Honey! take a picture of me wearing it!
K: Hey sexy...
H: ooo I like this
K: Are you going to buy it?
S: I LOVE THIS HAT(Shiny and pink)! Take a pic of me!
H: I wonder if I should get it...
C: Okay, get it then.
H: I know but -
C: But what?
H: I don't know
C: Well don't you like it?
H: Yeah, it's cute.
C: Then why don't you get it?
H: I don't know!! But I want it.
And it went on back and forth for about 10 minutes until...
S: Hey, check this out(he was holding a figurine of a couple about to kiss) HONEY TAKE A PICTURE OF US WITH IT
K: Hey, nice Oscar
S: C'mon, don't be shy Chris
Once Honey took that picture, Said went off looking for more toys
H: I think I'll take it
K: Finally!!
C: Maybe you shouldn't
H: Why not?!
K; She should
C: Naa she shouldn't
K: Yeah she shouldn't
H: Shut up.
C: So how long did it take for her to decide on getting it?
K: Think about 10-15 minutes
After purchasing that ladybird thing -
H: ARRRRHHH! My bag's too small to put it in
