to my people

EEPS! I've realised that I haven't updated in over 1 month!
So sorry to those 3.5 readers who still bother to come here... I will bombard with lots of posts soon! :)

A lot has happened in the past 1 month. First thing being I've spend more than 4oooeuros. Tts pretty amazing I think. I'm better in going around Milan even though the streets here are arranged without much order. I can go to 1) school, 2) supermarket, 3) duomo to shop, 4) chinatown, 5) mike and ray's apartment. Thats pretty much all I do in milan!

Travels around Europe
Not that much compared to some of my friends.
I've been to London, around some parts of Italy (verona and venice) and switzerland. By far I think switzerland is the most gorgeous place to visit! The alps are amazing.

Travelling here also gave me the experience of staying in a backpacker's inn. Previously its always been hotels for me. Its very interesting. I always feel so bad when I have to get up super early in the morning to catch the train then my alarm wakes up the other people in the room. Some of them get irritated but such is the life of a backpacker.

Friends and family
My grandfather passed away on the 2nd of March 2009. He's been fighting with terminal lung cancer for about 6 months. Even though he's old, I saw how he deteriorated from walking to chinatown everyday to being bedridden and unable to swallow food. I wonder if any of us had time to say proper goodbyes before he left.

I try to talk to friends by leaving messages and facebook and stuff but its never easy I guess. My phonebill here is insanely expensive so it limits me from calling Singapore. Even with M1 SmartRoam, its S$2.50 per minute! eeps. And skype connection sucks. To my friends in Singapore, I hope everything is going good for you, and if it not, just fuck it and go out to dance. :)

To Richard, I know its hard for us to keep in connect due to the time difference and schedules but i'm sure we will find a way. stay tough babe.
