Heyz, the story begins

Last last Saturday, I went to do some volunteer work at the Illinois Food Bank. It is slightly off campus. I went there to sort food with some volunteerz from uiuc. here's a pic of us after the thing

It was an interesting experience. We had to clean the packaging of foodstuff (mainly yogurt and biscuits), sort them, pack them into boxes and prepare more boxes for future usage.

Next activity that day was Apple Plucking!!

hehe, pumpkins?
Hee, Apples la ...

it was a bright and sunny day and the scenery behind reminded me of the windows xp wallpaper cos it looked so much like it, jus that it was real ... the picture ain't representative. mus see for yourself!

The following day, this was what I found outside my dorm window …

ee. How frightening can …. First it’s a scary insect … second, it’s missing 2 legs … i freaked out for a while. Then of course I had to take a pic of it

hie all

decided to do a quick update
i wanted to do it some time ago and describe the many thing that have happened but looks like i din have the time to. sorry ... soon soon
i'll do that after my physics mid term which is later today
a lot of stuff have happened ... jus a sypnosis: chicago trip, apple plucking, singapore food fest etc.

well, i'm currently having not enough sleep such that i cant pay full attention in lectures and end up sleeping instead. hopefully after today can catch back on my sleep
i went to ME 170 lecture yest equiped with 2 sweets ... in the end, 2 sweets went into me and i still sleep thru the lecture
the workload here is ... significant
homework to be handed in every week ... quizzes almost every week, and there's pop quizzes, tests, exams and whatever they wanna call it. guess it keeps people on their toes but i prefer to have less stuff to hand in
my timetable is bad can ... i wake up at 7plus everyday ... except on friday
ee, i wanna sleep in!!boo!
not surprisingly, i overslept this morning ... my fren called me at about 735 (the time i'm usu at the bus stop). argh, u mean i din hear my alarm? or did i press snooze without realising it? i usu set 2 alarms but last night i decided to set 1 cos i usu wake up on one. i suppose next time i'll need 2
and y was my phone on?? i usu turn off my hp before i sleep but did not last night cos too tired
yea, so ... moral of the story is sleep early, set 2 alarms and leave phone on

the dorm food here is buffet style so ... u can imagine la ... i'm kinda ... putting on .... _____
sobz and eeks, getting cold ... i wan singapore warmth
i think for the next few days i'm gonna be wearing like 3 layers ... look like meatball alr ... and winter's not here yet. heard it can go down to about -20 degree celsius. oh me oh my
