Am emo-ing these few days.. I guess it is a weird sense of calm after the exams. Of course there is always the persistent niggle in the back of my mind worrying about results. I guess that contributes to some emo-ness. However, calling home more often after exams were over and (kind of) witnessing almost the whole family at home made me feel like how I felt before flying home last summer. On 1 hand I keep having random bouts of home sickness; on the other hand life is going on without me and I do not know what to expect when I go back. Hm. People are nicer to me when I go back. Hardly any disagreements/quarrels. I suppose generally people are more accommodating coz I have been away and they only have to be accommodating for a few months? Hm. Perhaps I have grown more mature too. Hee.
Hang on. JJ is a bit loud and I am getting distracted. I probably mentioned this before but JJ 陆 does have some very addictive songs (:
Ah. Listening to JJ ballads and watching the snowfall might have something to do with my sudden bout of thinking too. Ok snow is not actually falling now (or yesterday come to think of it) but the grounds still have patches of snow and the view from my window on the 2nd floor garners me a pretty view of snow-caked rooftops across the road. It snowed pretty heavily for the whole day on Monday. A comparative account with Yelin (in Glasgow) showed that Leicester is, for once, snowing more than Scotland. Maybe it is relative seeing as it hardly snows here and it is freaking cold in Glasgow --> This bit of snow seems alot to me and nothing to Yelin. Yelin told me that children were using bits of cardboard to go sledding. No slopes that I know of tho. Perhaps I will sled down the slide in the Nelson Mendela playground. I suspect the slide is too narrow for me tho. Silly me. Declined 2 offers to play in the snow coz 1. I did not believe it was thick enough 2. I was attempting to be consistent with studying after the guilt of Sem 3. Owell.. Apparently it will snow again tomorrow and Friday. Den I WILL build a life-sized snowthing. The Malaysians managed to build a 3-tier snowman that was taller than them in 30min. They said the snow in NM park is better flufflier and can be rolled. Tch (irritated noise)
There was a mutant of a housefly (X-fly) in my room on Monday when it was proper snowing. It was there since the night before, slapping itself around my IKEA booklight. Laziness overruled my slightly dimmed nervousness and so I let it stay the night. Anyway on Monday morning as I watched the scenic picture of the heavy snow somehow managing to drift daintily past my window with the wind blowing so hard X-fly suddenly made its presence apparent and continued slapping itself against my window. Being the compassionate person that I am, I did not let it out to die in the bitter cold and left my door open for it to wander as it wished through the house. Either the fly is stupid, or it felt complied to be loyal to me because of my greatness and kindness, but when I returned that evening I found that it had decided to stay in my room. And so the same thing happened the next morning. It is gone now tho. I found a random black mass on my carpet the next morning rather like oreo crumbs and wondered if X-fly had gotten itself fried in my heater (possible seeing as my house is not much warmer than my fridge and X-fly might have been seeking warmth). Perhaps it really was oreo crumbs. Anyhow X-fly is gone now and my room is no longer interrupted by the disturbing sounds of it slapping itslef against the surfaces of my room.
