some random updates.
The fire next door was quelled, about 1.5 – 2 hours after it started. we didn’t nose around to ask what happened, but it’s not hard to guess considering the amount of damage done to parts of the house. the insurance guys came around, as well as, i guess, the landlord. as of this moment, they are all gated up now but no one seems to be harmed.
i think a large part of me almost feared for my life, but i didn’t know what to do. i wanted to save my cat and my bunny, and it was the only thing that ran through my head, because i assumed, from the one glance, that it was our house.
Brisingr came out a few weeks ago, and i bought it and bought the TY beanie commemorative of it. I know, and understand many people who think that christopher paolini has about as much talent and originality as a piece of rock – particularly since his essential storyline is pretty much the same as half of the fantasy books out there.
but i like fantasies, and i like a “different” feel of personalities and names. and so, i still enjoy it. sucks though that i have hardly the time to read it.
I did find the time for some easy indulgence though. a little chat with Paingasm Mike’s friend pointed me in the right direction with regards to food, exercising and me. In the last year and abit, since i moved in with waife, it was like my brain and body, who were slightly starved in the year prior to that, suddenly realised they could eat. as a whole, i didn’t “know” how long this would last, and also, “I” wanted to enjoy as much food as i can since i can now.
so i ate and i ate.
So, it’s back to bento-ing for me. it’s a little hard to crack bad eating habits, but i am on… day 4 right now, so slowly, i should be able to ease myself back in. obviously, i am just “starting” back, so nothing’s quite as varied as they were growing to be previously. not to mention, it seems i have lost some of my bento equipments T_T
that’s not to say that i didn’t indulge, on a smaller scale.
as for what i would do after graduation, frankly i am not sure. alot of the jobs i want to do and am eligible for are “citizens only”. I kind of want out from hospitality, at the same time, with such a visa standing, where i am not sure of whether i would be approved or not, it’s also hard to find a full time job that would accept me.
furthermore, there’s lots of gray areas about some things, it seems pretty complicated. perhaps i will just stay put until my visa’s granted. ^_^
