sydney

this morning i finally killed all the mosquitos in my room by drinking too much at kath's party and giving them alcohol poisoning. stumbled out of bed for class and almost left my house before realising i was only wearing one shoe.

yes Im back in sydney. this time i brought photos of people and singapore to stick up on my wall. the past few months back home were really trying but i realised how lucky i am to be surrounded by such good friends. i'll remember racing down the highway while slipping off the back of jared's motorbike during a rainstorm, with my bag flapping open in the wind and the constant fear of its contents being left behind in a hansel and gretel trail along the highway. performing at the prince of wales with ying and guru. nearly sending my hand thru a thousand dollar painting while working at an art gallery with norman. having a bad episode with a pack of murderous monkeys and swollen jackfruits in the jungle with morgan. listening to jonathan rattle of linaen species and genus names and getting shocked by the extent of his zoological knowledge while gazing at a leviathan of a crocodile called kaiser at the zoo. hanging out with my sister. rain, rain and more rain, i thought we would all drown that december. jeremy and kent, andre, cedric and ina. cain and bes. watching muse or rather watching myself watch muse at fort canning.

my new house is alot better than the previous crack den i used to inhabit. i actually have a balcony. most of my housemates are girls and its rather weird brushing my teeth in a communal toilet in the morning to the soundtrack of a chick having a go on the lavy. that aside , i have a strong feeling in my bones thats it going to be a good year one way or another.
