The last few days've been spent burning the midnight oil, reading notes with the company of Miami Ink, David Tutera and Anthony Bourdain (sidetracking a little, I absolutely love No Reservations, even though tony says "it's the best thing that I've ever tasted!" one time too many). It's only 2 papers but I feel the pressure more than ever, don't you? I'm guessing this is all because it's the final 2 to determine the cut for university; before we can all kiss TP goodbye. I'm so totally expecting people to be screaming on their ways out of the sports hall after our last paper.

Can't describe how screwed my body clock is; I've been sleeping close to 7a.m. nearly every single day and waking at 3+ p.m. Can't seem to fall asleep any time before that, tried and ended up tossing all over for a good whole 2 hours.

bf suggested frozen grapes to keep me awake. The sensation of sinking my teeth into one of these iced-cold grapes made me go brrr, and then woah! ha. Grape freeze, what a quirky idea. And note: Seedless grapes should be used ideally, unless of course, you like crunching into the seeds. Anyway, I think freezing oranges is a good idea; going to try that out tonight. There's an excess of mandarin oranges (and kum quats) rolling about in the house right now.

Met bf for a sumptuous hawker lunch at Bendemeer Market. Silly thought he was going to have a tooth extraction so he had his fill. We had chicken rice, laksa, penang fried kway teow and fried hokkien mee. Fill or not? Didn't actually finish all of that food; I could see the cleaner uncle shaking his head in disbelief at the wastage... oops.

I'm getting back to my notes... a week exactly before the last paper. And a week closer to the great holidays! Pulau Aur, Phuket, and maybe even Penang... so much travelling to do, I'm way excited!

And.........finally before I end this post,

Guess who got braces today???
