Dong Xi

"Dong Xi" means "thing or something" in mandarin.

I was thinking of something nice or catchy for today's blog headline, but none came to my head. I'm writing something random about my life. A bit here. Another patch there. So somehow a normal title doesn't fit in all. At least "dong xi" is a rather broad topic...

Its near 3 months left in my current job. I've not blinked my eyes many times, but time flew. I like to imagine the summer in London and fearing the cold in winter. 3 months is actually not a long time, it will be here in no time. I can probably visualize myself struggling to stuff as much as I can into my luggage...

3 months is not enough for so much to do. I've to renew passport, take passport photos, apply for visa, book ticket (after I got my visa), learn pilates, continue my self-learning cooking & laundry, plan for europe/uk backpacking route, buy the necessary (backpack, international adaptor...), take up freelance to earn more bucks (if I can squeeze time in), do my homepage v.3, convince my parents I can survive myself there, try hook up some contacts for accomodation & job in uk, do financial planning, prepared to terminate mobile/etc I have in singapore...

That's some of those I can remember right now. Challenging eh!

I'm not stressed now. Nothing really is going to bother me except I'm starting to become used to being alone. No friends. No men. No work. No parents. No siblings. No sound. No noise. Just myself, doing what I want. Nakedness. Alone.

I didn't sleep well last night. My toe was itching, hell, so much so I had to jump up to trim the nails away. I looked in the mirror this morning, wasn't so pleased with what I saw. My face - tired. I have some unseen disturbance going on in my head. I don't know what shit that is. I could recall changing my sleeping position 180° or 45° many times...

A friend's birthday is coming this weekend, somehow I am excited. I'm helping her party. Two more birthdays next month. I can't wait for some hands-on gift wrapping again.

Remember the gray shoes I bought, my sister wanted one as well. It must have looked nice! So I helped her got a blue pair.

I will need a good sleep tonight.
