just got back from my very first cruise!
it was a simple weekend cruise to nowhere...
but it was quality time spent with the guy...
and a good reward for getting through the dreadful week of interim presentations...
food wasnt as good as i expected...
and there was a serious lack of things to do...
minimum bets were 25 a pop...
yucky concerts cost money...
we already watched all the movies they were screening...
but we did jacuzzi a little...
played loads of arcade...
watched lots of HBO and discovery...
ate lots...
slept lots...
not too bad an experience...
though i'd rather spend the moolah on a trip overseas...
not over-the-sea...

24.1.08
one of my lab mates and i were just chatting over curry puffs...
when he mentioned how little people he probably know in uni if it werent for db...
just occurred to me that maybe i've been missing out a little as well...
although i have some great pals that resulted from various places in uni...
windsurfing club...
ME project group...
ME lab mates (having gone thru hell together)...
and of course the guy...

but i kinda think if it werent for the guy...
us spending all our time together in consequence of our relationship...
maybe my uni social life wouldnt be so miserable...
maybe i would have met more pple...
maybe i'll meet some kick-ass awesome people that i can take with me thru life...
i dont know...
sometimes it scares me to think how my inexistent social life will manifest should the guy and me split up...
i'll be reduced to a miserably pathetic pile of i-dont-know-what...

quite frankly...
i'm a terrible friend...
there is this ME guy that i happen to bump a lot into these days...
we sit and chat on the bus...
give each other funny looks whenever we bump into one another...
complain about our FYPs...
but i cant remember his name or how i met him...
i bumped into a JC friend this afternoon...
he didnt seem to recognise me while we were at the bus stop...
so i didnt try to acknowledge him...
but i as i alighted from the bus, walking by him as such...
he sprouted very jovial, "hey steffie!"
(i go weak in the knees when pple call me that...)
i feigned surprise...
but guilt was really what i felt...
not guilt also la....
maybe embarrassment...

just glad something good came out from being stuck in the FYP lab so much...
some pretty awesome friends that will make this FYP journey much easier...

if only...

...i can write as much in my FYP log book as i do here sometimes...
i wouldnt be in this much of a fix...

...i can stop feeling so hungry all the time...
i'll finally be able to lose some weight...

...i can feel better about myself...
maybe i wouldnt feel a constant need to shake things up with the guy by victimizing myself...

...i have more time on my hands...
i wouldnt need to plan my days 1 week in advance...
considering i need to prepare my FYP presentation, move into hostel, teach a 6hr course, buy textbooks, go to lab, go to class, watch CSI: Las Vegas...BAH!

the guy and i decided if his en-bloc aint going through...
which equates to not enough savings for Europe...
we're going to hit the East Coast...
sounds like a fantastic plan for 2008...
think i have to seriously put into effect the bread-and-water plan...
New York, Boston, Miami...
here we come!
