Heylo averybahdee, Barberella here (does hand clenching wave)
Oh what good fun is the holidays - probably one of my most memorable, and also one of the more expensive seeing as how money was spent like water.
Life's been good really - I couldn't complain at all, apart from the occasional backache that comes from a slouchy posture. On Thursday I caught Inception with Joel and we must have mis estimated the advert time because the movie was screening even though we walked in only 5 minutes after! Well it's not like we missed much I guess. There is currently alot of hype about it and I couldn't agree that it's a brilliant movie (Nolan having directed Memento and The Dark Knight): the concept of dream weaving is quite hard to visualize, and it's great that it was explored rather successfully through his dream within a dream within a dream idea. Although of course I always assume that Nolan being Nolan the ending is always unresolved, but Nikki and Fishy proved me wrong.
Friday, was some girl time shopping with Nikky darling whom I never saw in 2 month ish! We had atas soup haha, and people-watching along the familiar stretch of mall we know (and that I always end up at for outings). Bought something! Really happy about it because it was on sale (GSS, Thy name is Women) and I personally think it's worth the investment because I always wanted something in that colour. And we went to the arcade! That brought back some memories I guess. And the funny thing was that my engine stalled -__-' because we decided to be adventurous and switch to manual. Also went to Toys R Us to buy Bakugan for the kid (I found out on Monday that I bought the wrong one but he seems happy with it nonetheless). After which I caught CSS people for their dinner before their movie at night!
Oh, on Friday I also baked pizza from scratch! :D Onions, tomatoes, pineapple cubes, mushrooms with a pasta sauce base and mozz cheese on top! At the expense of my CORS bidding (my priorities are screwed up) somemore but thank goodness I got that module for 1 point.
Weekend had GREAT FOOD: Saturday was Scissors Cut Rice and Sunday was Biriyani (though we took ages to find the outlet in Avenue 10 which is as big as Texas)
This week I intended to bum around at home (I'm becoming used to this) BUT sometimes even an unplanned week can turn into a hectic one. Last night CSS went to Little India HAHA and it was really funny because we ate authentic Indian food at Madras Woodlands and walked around Mustafa!
I am personally quite daunted by the 20 novels that await me this semester, and my fellow EN friends are scaring the dickens out of me by saying they completed this novel and that. (Sometimes my work ethic is......dismal)
Right now I'm doing what any normal NUS student is doing: refreshing the page every 5 minutes and getting mini heart attacks because if I don't get what I want I don't really have a plan B. This morning I opened the gate and little Twitch was snoozing in the shoe cabinet! He saw me and stretched his paws and came out and mewed. Haha. (:
Half excited and half sian of starting school, I know it's gonna be same old same old except much much harder - 3 level 3000 modules I kid you not, I'm gonna be A FULL TIME NERD (say must do). Also getting bankrupt from all the books which I have to get ):

Exciting weekend awaits - gonna meet my class girls and girlfriend~~~ This is the evidently the calm before the storm.

God bless our souls.
