South Bound

At the airport at the moment.
In the middle of Dorothy Koomson's Marshmallows for Breakfast.
Even got a hot chocolate.
Them traveler feels.
*cue shades*
Not one of my best holidays so far.
Was out almost every other day with mom getting things done. Had to get my passport renewed. Went to UTC but it was way too crowded. Went to the immigration office in Jelapang but the system was down. Had to go again a couple of times before everything was finally sorted.
And the two days that I was actually free, I was bed-ridden because of terrible back ache. Something I did must've aggravated my lumbar sprain and it came back again in full force. Much worse than before.
The ground beneath my feet is shaking. I thought it was my leg muscles twitching but something's making the floor vibrate O.o
Took a couple of pictures of the doggies this time round. 
After much patience, persuasion and many treats. Kulfi was somewhere digging something. Tsk.
Oh and this is Opus by the way. The newest member of our family.
No idea why, I think it's her ears, but she reminds me of Dobby from Harry Potter.
I think these next couple of hours before and until I reach JB will be my most free until the 26th.
Viva for Pathology tomorrow. Gonna be one hell of a long night tonight. Quite a bit to catch up with before mid semester exams begin next week.
And then there's all the planning that needs to be done for our dinner in January.
I've e-mailed so many hotels but at the rate they're going at, no one on campus is gonna agree to it.
I'm in charge of getting the venue and I really, really want it to be somewhere grand. Not too grand but you know, some place classy at the very least.
Am very particular about all this.
I think that's why it's a little difficult to get a decent place within our budget.
Lots of meetings coming up with the other directors.
Feels like how things were back in school. In charge of something. All the preparation, planning, hosting. Making sure everything falls perfectly into place.
Damn I've missed it.
Laptop battery is dying.
More after all this is over.
Will be back with pictures from Bandung!

Table Topics: Judgement & Understanding

Took one of my classmates out today coz she needed to get some things. She's been through a lot. Nothing I will disclose here but we had a pretty long chat in the car once we got back. And it's really true what they say about never judging someone before getting to know them. She opened up to me about everything that was going on. How she felt about things. How she was dealing with things. And at the end of the day it all boils down to understanding. There's a reason behind the things people do. It's simply a matter of accepting that reason and understanding them for it and them helping them get through it. You hear stories about married couples going through a divorce. It's really not an option anyone should think about after marriage. After all it's for better or for worse, right? But what if sometimes it becomes too much to bear? What if sometimes things get impossible to handle? What if that's the reason divorces happen in the first plac

To Date.

I've recently been nominated for the Liebster Blog Award thanks to a friend of mine I've only known via Facebook for some years now. The blog post for that is still being drafted. I've been posed some pretty tricky questions /;) Haven't been blogging as frequently as I used to coz I didn't bring my laptop back home this time round. Didn't think I'd have much use for it. Things have been a little...crazy here to say the least. I'm actually twenty-one now. Though I must say, the word 'freedom' was never synonymous with this age. All I ever related to this milestone was responsibility. Funny. It's been such a rollercoaster ride of emotions. I could never completely describe it. I've been thinking about how I've celebrated my birthdays all these years. Two birthdays I celebrated away from home. My eighteenth, which was in the UK with Aunty M and Uncle T, and my twentieth, which was in Johor with my classmates and a once

Dubai

Dubai was actually a layover. Since I have friends there I decided to spend a few days with them before flying out to London.  I took Emirates to and from Dubai & the UK & it was great. The unlimited wine was a major plus :P Only spent about 3 days in Dubai so I saw only a few of the major must-see spots.  My friend picked me up from the airport & we went to her place first. It was about 20 minutes away. More depending on traffic. Roads are very broad and each side has 6 lanes with a minimum of 3 on average. You see a lot of SUVs there. There's a lot of American influence. The UAE doesn't have their own national car.  It felt a lot like being in KL at first. Only after a while I started taking in the difference. Plenty of skyscrapers everywhere. But unlike KL, buildings here are built much closer together. & there is a LOT of development going on, still.  After washing up at home, we headed out to the Burj. The entrance is within the Dubai Mal
