Keeping this page updated is hard. Even typing this post out needed heaps of self-coaxing. Can't pinpoint the exact reason, other than the obvious - i'm just plain lazy. I guess another reason for the non-updates is the fact that i've been going through so many emotions, i just didn't feel like letting the whole wide world (read: you five readers) know everything i'm going through. I'll admit, i haven't been feeling the best lately, and it's partly due to the flu. But i'm fine now.

The summer break just came and went, and so i've met up with classmates studying in Australia who were down for the break. It's getting expensive, this making friends thing. But it's a good thing i guess, else i'd just be sitting at home wondering why i don't have any friends. Anyways, i had Sara's birthday, the trip to genting, and the dinner at Shabu Shabu to keep me occupied (and broke) during the holidays. I'd better damn well cherish the moments before we graduate (me later than most) and inevitably, go our separate ways.

Then there's the small matter of my final year project. It's no fun going to the uni every other day during the holidays just to inhale the fine aroma of diesel/vegetable oil. You haven't smelt it all till you smell crude palm oil (Google it up). Puke-inducing, is all i'll say. So yeah, me and my FYP partner Tommy reek of diesel on a daily basis. Our uni life this semester is only limited classes, the lab, and the occasional forays into the outside world for lunch. And you wonder why engineering students are the loneliest/weirdest ones.

In other news, i've got a new handphone! Even though it's only a credit card redemption phone, it is by far the best phone i've ever owned. It's got 3G, bluetooth, and it can play music! I know i'm really kampung when it comes to technology, but who cares la. It took me a long time to figure out how to transfer music, and even longer on how to send an sms.

So i'm a hillbilly.

But i'm a hillbilly with a new phone.
