A Transparent Eyeball

Back! After 20 days. It's a nice little Friday night, and I'm not out ice-skating with the cell group because tomorrow I've got a full day with the Singaporean Students' Association meeting, then hanging out with Aunty Joyce, who is driving down from her meeting in Houston with my webcam, Fish's Julius Caesar and a whole lotta other junk for me... But. It's really not about the stuff (though the family will finally get to see my chubby face on skype).. I'm REALLY excited about spending time with her. Like a girls' day out. Ice cream and shopping and coffee...

I went to the Pita Pit for lunch today with Pammy. The pita they used was like an open oversized soft fluffy off-white cowrie shell, and they just shovelled in shredded lettuce, mushrooms, onions, chicken marinated greek-style, feta cheese and honey mustard dressing. It's amazing how much they stuffed in. yumyumyumyum.

Right now, I would like to give a shout out to my little brother, Mark "Dimples-so-deep-they-probably-touch-in-the-middle-of-his-mouth" Lim, who has been curiously silent after his string of Bright Orange Emails last week. Thanks for your Christmas '04 present, the furry blue Mango sweatpants that are serving me really well here. Muchos Gracias! And call me!

Hm. What else. I watched Dead Poet's Society just now and was riveted. Pretty inspiring.

Beth: Brandi Carlile is coming to perform at UT! But ticket prices are too steep.

Okay, will stop here. Miss you all. It was kinda heartwarming to read all your Hello Panda comments. I felt all warm and creamy inside :)

ps: Happy Mid-Autumn Festival! Remember Chang Er and her rabbit in the moon! Oh man now I'm craving lotus paste... this HAS to stop!

Greetings

Blogging is really a skill... suddenly I can't think of anything to write here. Hi all!
Sitting at my cluttered little desk, looking at my cluttered little half of a room- this is gonna be home for 9 months! I'm hoping the family will be able to find my stuffed manatee and send it over, along with my Sec 3 Julius Caesar text... who would've thought I'd need it for a Roman film class 5 years later?
Yesterday I got to eat -drumroll- HELLO PANDA cuz the guy upstairs had a pack. Oh man. All the chocolates in the US cannot compare to panda-printed biscuit shells filled with creamy, low-quality chocolate. Reminds me of JC lectures... and how one biscuit in a pack would inevitably have no chocolate in it. Sigh.
Tonight is the big game against Ohio State. That means absolutely nothing to me. Yet.
The whole uproar over the Facebook news feed was pretty funny. But yeah, it was too much info for me too.
I'm gonna go. Pictures will come when I buy a card-reader.
Love ya!
