The timing’s just plain off.

Its been a while since I’ve updated, but I’ll give you readers some food for thought.

I miss the times when we all had school holidays together with the rest of our friends, thus giving us more time to hang out with each other. I used to think as school as sort of a restraint, keeping us from spending time with our friends and loved ones, just plainly because its been hardwired in our system since we were young to do our “best” for exams. I entered college with a mindset that there would be more freedom to some extent, more time to spend with my friends and loved ones. I entered college thinking that I’d be able to talk to and hang out with some friends more and more.

How wrong was I.

I’m finding now, with most of my friends, that things aren’t going the way as I had made it up to be in my head. I find that most of our timings are just plain conflicting with each other. When I have exams, classes and assessments, they’re free to some extent.

When I’m mostly free or have time to hang out, most of them are neck deep in assignments, quizzes, classes, etc etc etc etc etc, and the list goes on and on. That, and the fact that some of them have gone abroad for studies.

Maybe that’s what its supposed to be like.

Maybe that’s the world’s way of segregating us, by making us just too plain busy to be able to spend time with each other despite our differences.

Maybe some things are meant to change, for better or for worse.

Maybe some of things happening now are just a test to friendships and bonds. To see if some friends are truly worth weathering the storm for.

I’ll tell you one thing for sure. With all that’s happening now, with time slipping through my fingers like sand, with all the friends I feel I’m losing.

HOE MAI.

It is now the 10th of June, and its been a while since I’ve updated hasn’t it? STILL NO POSTS ON COLLEGE???? Well here they are =DIMG_5434Orientation was a bitch. Luckily Nelson was there to go through it with meIMG_5436IMG_5440 This has got to be, hands down, the most expensive projector in the entire campus.IMG_5441 It was a little exciting at first, finally being in college, seeing all these new faces, and especially being in the Lakeside campus. But I guess now the excitement’s pretty much worn off. Probably because I’m already 8 weeks into my course =D.

Halfway through orientation, there was some false fire alarm, and everyone had to empty the Multi-Purpose Hall. So like, there was a whole bunch of people here. I took that opportunity to say hi here and there, but I’ve forgotten most of the people I met during orientation. IMG_5451EXCEPT A SELECT FEW RIGHT OR NOT BROSKIES????

Stuck with Nelson when most of the orientation was overIMG_5445 Had some english placement exam and met:IMG_5449Nicholas Nathaniel Raj. Dude I’m sorry if the subject’s a bit too dark. =D

IMG_5452 Thee Ban. I don’t know his full name, cos like, now we’re in different groups. Sad face.IMG_5453 AND ANISH DEV.

The remainder of the first day of orientation was just plain walking around campus, stoning and taking a few photos here and there. IMG_5460LIKE THIS ONE.IMG_5468Btw, for those of you who don’t know, parking in college sucks balls. If you don’t come early la. Scratch that, coming early to get parking sucks balls too.IMG_5466Oh, and we have our very own cow farm too =D

THAT’S ALL YOU GET FROM ME FOR NOW ASSIGNMENTS AND LOTSA OTHER SHIT TO HANDLE SO EYE SEE YOU ALL SOONZ WITH MO UPDATES

Au revoir.
