BLOGGING TIME!

Weather report:

It was fuxxing cold yesterday and Audrey Ooi nearly died, even though she was wearing a jacket and long pants. Apparently Massachusetts just hates me. Oh btw, it’s coming to autumn now I think. Some of the leaves are turning red and falling…quite nice! Cos they’re like the maple tree leaves shape and some are even PINK!!!! Oh favorite color of mine.

Surroundings report:
Like I said, the town here is exactly like Gilmore Girls type. As for the school buildings, they’re more like Hogwarts type, with ivy creeping up the walls and pires on the roof and whatnot. Its actually very beautiful…just that the campus is too fuxxing big and I need to walk ALL OVER THE PLACE. My legs are in perpetual cramping mode, also due to the fact that…

I KEEP GETTING LOST.

EVEN HOLDING A MAP.

I hate reading maps!!!! I don’t get anything…the other day, I was supposed to go to this residence hall called Ham Hall for breakfast.

I ended up crossing A LAKE (oh for god’s sake) which was at the other end of the campus already.

Oh ya, also on the first night there, I decided to be adventurous and follow my friends, this China gal called Ning and this Jap gal called Mai to see the horses cos they have stables over there. After trekking for more than 2 years, we finally arrived at the very stinky stables. There, they proceeded to stroke the horses (I only touched one cos they were so damn big and were smelly).

Suddenly! A car drove up from nowhere and A SECURITY GUARD CAME OUT, MARCHED UP TO US AND SAID IN AN ALARMING TONE, “DO YOU KNOW YOU HAVE JUST SET OFF THE ALARM?”

That’s right, we set off the alarm on our first night there. The guard thought we were horse thieves.

Academic Report:
I am taking (for now if I don’t change it) Calculus 101, Intro to Microecons 103, Japanese 120 and History 101 – which is about the Chinese Revolution and is really fcuked up because I don’t wanna learn about Mao Ze Dong (Eh Chung Oak Chew, you want?)

Social Report:

This kind of sucks. I really really miss everyone back home, and I’m quite depressed for the fact that I don’t have anyone here close enough for me to talk to about anything and swear at her and hit her or something.

I know, I know I’ve only been here a few days, but I miss Malaysia and I want someone who I can be close to.

The Americans are really scary. It’s not all ang mohs, only the Americans. The Italians, Spanish, German etc are ok but the ang mohs..just plain scary. They are like fucking loud and pushy and don’t seem to care about other people. This is especially the whites, dunno why. Like the black Americans will take an effort to talk to you, but the whites won’t unless they’re in the orientation committee or something.

My roommate Beth, is very nice.. but then she’s kinda shy I think. She’s quite quiet and seems quite kwai also. Naturally I am also kwai to the point of goddess-hood, but somehow we still can’t click THAT well. Maybe it takes time and I’m expecting too much huh?

Oh but I did meet someone who is very similar to me! Her name is Angela, from Vancouver. Similarities:

She LOVES PINK
She is obsessed with clothes and makeup
She is fuxxing pan cute
She loves taking photos of herself

::Two pan cute champions at Mt Holyoke (possibly the most pan cute in US)::

::This is at Blanchard Campus Center..its like the student center kinda place la. L-R: Mandy, Mai, Carmen, Angela, Ning. Bottom one obviously you know who right?!?::
