So much for rotas, this is a first for halls...Well, Ive been on duty since Monday. Been in charge of all 370 rooms in the 3 blocks, alone. Mubina if you are reading this, you must be either pitying me or laughing at me (: haha.. I dont blame you.

If this goes on the way it does, and they dont hire any Resisdent Assisstants in the next few months, I think I will actually save enough to get myself a plane ticket home for Christmas.. No kidding~!! working 7 nights a week for the next 3 months, plus Im a senior now which means Im getting more than before haha.. who knows right!..

Just hope the Queen Bee isnt reading this... hee.. (:

Hi, my name is Leslie, and I'm a gym addict... I think...

So much for going out for a run... the weather is nice, but definitely colder. The cold air just feels like its piercing through my lungs.. dont like that feeling.. so its back to the good old gym. Have already been to 2 morning spin classes which I honestly totally enjoy.. It starts at 8.15am which means Im out of bed by 7.30am. My day starts early and I seem to get loads done cos of this. Plus Im wide awake cos of the morning workout.

Well today was slightly mental. Was at the gym 3 times, yes you heard me, 3 times in total. Was in the morning for morning spin, again at 5.15pm for circuits and then at 8pm for bball which I have actually missed. Not that I miss playing bball. I played loads in brissy but they were mostly with boys and they were informal games on the outdoor court. Today was the first day back at training with the girls, who like the boys would put it, dont give chance.

My quads are absolutely knackered right now. Thank god tmr is a friday, and the end of the first week of uni. Quick isnt it? October is here. Yeah. Next thing you know Christmas will have arrived haha.. not that Im looking forward to that this year.. *being one year older.. again* Oh well, older and wiser, I hope haha.. we'll see.

Its been a gorgeous day today.. looking out from my room, I can see for miles and miles... Ive never seen such clear weather from halls before, and just didn realise how far I can see from this high up... Too bad I was stuck in the labs all day helping out with a study... am absolutely pooped.. and to think Ive got to make my own dinner now.. arghh... why cant Scotland have hawker centres as well.. wouldn't that just make life so much easier here haha.. okok I know Im complaining and whinning...

Went for my first couple of classes for the year yesterday.. very first class was rather interesting I must say... Applied Sport and Exercise Science.. its basically work experience but not quite the same as you would have imagined it to be. We are all given a client each (like a real sports person), to work one-on-one with, help improve his or her sport either through biomechanics, psychology, nutrition or physiology.. Its really fascinating cos we get to use what we have learnt and apply it on a real person.. Use the machines and all... there was a wide range of sportmen/women to be handed out and it had to be at random.. so guess what sport I got... I dunno if someone up there is trying to pull a fast one on me or what.. but I was given a female golfer.. well I choose to think that Ive got a slight advantage cos I know a few things about it.. But we'll see how it goes.. am just excited to be working with a real client and applying what Ive been studying over the last 3 years...

Anyways.. on another note, got this off Amy's facebook.. thanks for taking the picture (:

Will be another 8-9 months or so before the 4 of us will be together again..

*im sorry you've got to go through what you are going through now, but you know I'll always be here if you need someone to talk to (msn/call). Be strong.

All the things

I still remember

Summers never looked the same

Years go by and time just seems to fly

But the memories remain

In the middle of September

We still play out in the rain

Nothing to lose but everything to gain

Reflecting now how things could've been

It was worth it in the end

Same city, same weather, same smells, same feel, same block, different room, different Leslie.

My final year as an undergrad has finally come.. I of all ppl thought this day would never come, but it has. Another 8-9 months or so, I'll finally have the degree that I've been woking, well basically my whole life for. It may be nothing to some ppl, but its everything to me.

Ive taken the long and winding route, I can safely say, I can finally see that light at the end of my education tunnel haha.. greatly appreciate the support my family has always given me and friends who never fail to make me feel bad for always leaving and saying "when are u coming back?" ... only kidding.. (: love them all ...

Something familiar SHu?? haha.. been keeping it all this while... (:

pictures on my wall always change... people have come and gone, pictures may change, but the memories still lives on.. I know that these are the ppl who will always be there for me, and I cherish every single one of them as I hold them close to my heart (:

New sem, also means more training! and Im gonna go all out this year. 8am at the gym tmr morning with Lexy before class, bring it I say...

Hardest Goodbye

I had to say one of the.. that's not true.. I had to say THE most difficult "goodbye" today to someone who I know will not be there when I return in June, someone whom I have known all my life... Saying your final goodbye, to someone who has watched me grow up, am part of my life as much as I have been part of her's... I leave SG with a heavy heart, knowing that I will not be around when that fateful day comes..

Im torn as to how I should be feeling... I don't want her to be suffering for a long time, the pain must be eating her from inside. On the other hand, I don't want her to go, not being there whenever I visit in the future, not being there to provide all the chinese proverbs when we toss raw fish during CNY, the thought of not writing her name on a christmas card.. I just rather not think about it...

All I hope and pray is that she'll be at peace soon, pain free and happy, knowing that she'll always be around, somehow, somewhere...

Por Por, I'm gonna miss you so much... ♥
