No Title
Verbal constipation again - u must be thinking.
Not really - literally no time to shit!
CM came and gone during the first 2 weeks of May. the first week he was here coincided with my 1st mid-term exams. crazy schedule - wanted to hangout with him and yet had to study.
then came my move to my new place. thanks to all my buddies - without them i would never have got all the things set up - my (ex) housemates just 'dumped' all the things to me, last minute. while i am thankful that i am now very well equipped with all their high quality gadgets, they were a pain to move at the 11th hour before the lease expired.
and just as i settled down in the new place, it's time for my 2nd mid-term and report submission. there was basically no time to take a breather.
Mum called this afternoon and was surprised that i was home on a saturday afternoon. i told her that i just wanted to stay at home and rot. i love my new place alot. yes, by the look of it, i am no starving student anymore. u won't believe what i have now. Tap kept saying that i am 'richer' than him...... :<
though it is a studio, but it came with a balcony - good for me to dry my clothes (save on the bloody drier!!). the carpet is thick and nice - feels really good cos that at the old place sucked. my quality of life improved with a microwave oven for i get hot food in seconds. i can watch all the tv i wanted now as i inherited the combo TV set of my ex-housemate (no longer need to watch DVD on my computer - the TV comes with a built-in player). My housemate gave me their mini compo too... so my laptop is solely for work now - no need to multi-task anymore.
then, there are all the drawer sets and cabinets that they couldn't get rid of - i took them of course.... otherwise, they end up in the junkyard. i'm serious, they actually dumped all the new and good stuff away. even Tap n CM picked up things they could use - new suitcase, a box of monopoly, tons of hangers, DVDs. Not to mention the pillows, stuff toys and food - yes, fruits and juice that they couldn't finish.... oh, the cutlery sets, pots and pans.... u won't believe the stuff they have and wanted to throw away..... i am almost, if not better, equipped than in my own place back in sin (i didn't even have a microwave oven and DVD player then!!)
If only HY come now - not only she can celebrate our birthdays together (like we have been doing for the past 17 years), they would be so much more comfy.
sure, i have to thank my lucky star. but i feel really bad. i feel that i am enjoying all these at the expense of my housemates. i really wished that they manage to sell all the stuff and bring the $$ back with them. now i feel so indebted to them.... i mean the quality of my life improved so tremendously without me having to pay a single cent (ok, the expensive dinner i bought them can't really count.... i would still buy them dinner without all these).
well, i guess for the friendship that i extended to them during the past months, i should feel less 'guilty'. i did befriend them with sincerity from the bottom of my heart and treated them like my family, and will continue to do so by keeping them in my thoughts and prayers.
still the same wish for them - to be happy at home!!
