It's the hols. By right, there shd be more entries, since there's (ahem) more time and less stress. =P But oh well...
This period is always the most dreaded by many of us.. that impending countdown to reopening. 2 wks. To be frank, it's just 1 wk to go, since the last wk is always cramped with meetings to 'set the tone for the new yr'. The thought of that stack of work yet conquered almost always bring along a wave of horrendous guilt, alarm, and dread. But the fortunate thing is, the feeling will pass. As the wise men say, the first step is always the hardest. Start working, and the momentum will take over... =P Ah heavens... grant me that itsy bitsy power to press ahead now.
Checked out Settlers Cafe @ North Canal Rd over the wkend. For the non-puberscent yet still young-at-hearts like us, a cosy gathering over colourful, stimulating games is really quite a gd way to bond. 3hrs fly by and you find that you've only attempted 0.5% of all the games available in the cafe. [Fish, do they have such places in Freiburg?]
Finished The Alchemist. Will see what I can find in the library next. Also started on Jodi Picoult's Picture Perfect. A different style of writing - descriptive and detailed... sometimes a little too focused on the trivalities, I haven't decided if I like her yet.
Xmas season's here. Police is keeping a tight rein on drink-driving, and rightfully so, since it is peoples' lives at stake and we are but a super small nation of <4million 'originals' so everyone counts. =P Enjoy those sinful festive yummies, just try to workout a little and unblock those lipids-lined blood vessels after that. Coz the ang moh and chinese new years are but a couple more weeks away. We are in for the long haul, buddies.
And now, to ticking off some items on the 'To Do' list... Ahhhh....

Not sure leh. I don't go out a lot. There's a shop at the cathedral place (literal translation! ha!) which sells all sorts of games during winter. In spring, summer and until mid-autumn, it's an ice-cream parlour and cafe. Probably one could play games there but I didn't see people do it.
Wanted to buy several games there but the prices are much higher than what I can get on ebay. Pity. Now I hardly buy things direct from the shops.
Your entry sounds stressy leh. Just enjoy the rest of the days lah... Make your lists later. :o)
haha, the lists are made, i just have to demolish them... perhaps its the 'arghs' that made them sound stressy. oh well, here goes... ARGH!!!!
