:)

My first post.
in a long while
in a distant place
far from home.

I am going to start blogging about things that have happened for the past two days and will update you on what I've experienced for the past few months progressively over a period of time. There's just too much to type, too many words to say, too little time to spend at the keyboard, too much laziness within me. :P

Made a new friend in my seminar-styled class on Thurs.
An Indonesian who's interested in religion and plans to further her studies in philosophy. Or was it theology? I can't remember exactly which course.

Went for the Language Exchange Program Launch.
Met one of my partners, Charles- Edouard from Paris.
It's supposed to be pronounced as Sharl Edua :P
That's how it's written in my brain.
Enchante mon amie.
Life is wonderful when you get to learn a new language that brings down cultural barriers significantly.
Though I still am clueless about France and its history.

The security van driver is from Iraq.
When I asked him about his day, he said:
"I've had a pink day. :D"
One makes happy days.
Me: "What are happy colours?"
Him: "Pink, white, blue..."
Me: "Why blue? Blue Mondays are sad."
Him: "Sky-blue..."
Me: "What about yellow? Orange?"
Him: "Nah, yellow is too indecisive. It is not happy."
Me: "But the sun is yellow!"
Him: "That is a different yellow. A golden yellow. A very powerful yellow."
My brain is still trying to process that bit of opinion.

I was slightly out of sorts during the dance practice.
I need to get quality sleep to concentrate.
A sleeping routine should be of great help now.
Discipline needs to start kicking in. Where art thou?!

Made a bracelet for my friend, Mai.
It's made from purple plastic strings with shiny coloured beads.
It looks slightly childish. Haha.

Have I changed?
I don't really know.
A few of my friends say I have.
I have been more proactive by trying to expose myself to a little extra- curricular activities.
I probably have changed a little.
I don't know.
