GMT Tomorrow #2

#2 because I wrote a post with the exact same title one year ago, when I was leaving for 3rd year, but I never brought myself around to publishing it.

One year later, it has gotten slightly better, but not alot. It WAS alot worse in January, when I was ridden with emotional baggage and dreading a zillion and one trivial things. This summer, I have to say that I am a different person by far.

In July, I remembered thinking that I would just have to pass these damn exams, and then I could spend the whole holiday emo-ing as much as I wanted, I just had to keep my head during that mugging period and not let it drift. When summer swung around and I found no emo vibe within, it was then that I realised I had achieved even more than I had anticipated over the past year.

This academic year, all I have is ONE aim. To focus on passing finals and to eradicate anything or anyone who didn't matter from my system.

So I am not jumping for joy at the thought of returning to London and I hate that every time I come back to Kch, no part of me wants to leave - as much as we complain about the weather, the humidity, or the lack of interesting places to visit.

But I guess I have achieved all that I have wanted to this summer. Be it the EtoH and chilling sessions in Perth, having the most awesome time with my cousin, nights out in the past week with Jane, meeting the KL peeps, and to top it off, my last outing in Kch spent drenched in sweat. Kolo Mee, aye. Carpenter Street, aye. Cheap thrill, but made me smile while it lasted :)

Now I have Bao to look forward to in Singapore (Thank God for that) before I take off at night.

Gen Med, bring it on. I know nuts about Oncology, not that I knew anything much in 3rd year, but there's no letting shit hit the fan this time around. Focus focus focus.

See you guys back on the other side, with my newly chopped and dyed hair.

XOXO

One More Down....

Passed my exams!!! WOOTS!!

Am completely ecstatic, although I have yet to receive the proper breakdown of marks etc. But this means my summer plans are in place, to say the least.

Painting Perth red?

And Kay Elllleee town - I have missed you soooo!!

Shopping / EtoH, and also time to stop procrastinating now. Time to hit the swimming pool and the gym. No more excuse of pushing everything till 'after Thursday'.

WOOTS!
