my life.

To actually look back on my blog posts, I realised that I don't really update about my life. When I blog, I usually muse about the more interesting stuff that I think about, usually when I'm travelling alone.

Or maybe my life is just plain boring, but that's another story altogether. ha.

What can I say about my life so far?

I guess the word I'm looking for is 'contented'. I suppose I can be a easily contented person, I don't expect much from the world, and I depend on myself to fight for the things I want.

Going back to be a student again does feel great, but I'm trying to get back into my lost rhythm of studying and thriving under pressure, stress and competition. All my modules I'm taking so far have been alright, and in fact I'm quite enjoying school life. I have signed up for the NUS Community Service Club and will be volunteering at a student care centre near clementi.

There was this one incident that happened not too long ago. I was crossing an overhead bridge towards NUS and I saw these three students from NUS with dyed hair, smoking, and get this, two of which were having their hoodies on their heads! They were like staring at the people who walked past them, as though they were gangsters.

But being me, when they stared at me, I stared back even harder at those buggers. And being uncharacteristically "gangsterish", they didn't dare to stare at me again. Sheesh.

I mean like if you are a university student, you are actually fighting with other top students to secure your degree, and having paid good money, you are supposed to be working hard to do well right? Not behave like gangsters and smoking. If they want to be real gangsters, they should just leave school and join a real gang, and that will open up their eyes as to how lucky they are.
