There goes the last drop.

This is what I detest about staying in the hostel: Water Shortage! How on earth is it even possible, when each wing has 2 huge water tanks? It's frustrating allright!

When I was washing my clothes in the evening, the water supply was rapidly decreasing. An hour later as I was about to take my bath, there was no water in the bathroom except for the pantry. But of course, I can't very well bath in the pantry now can I? So I rushed to the other wing and thank goodness there was water there but you can tell it's running low. It's a good thing I took my bath then, because now the whole block is out of water. Everybody is going to the next block. It's just like the great Exodus, only this time, the multitudes are carrying pails, towels and soaps.

Needless to say, I thought it would be wise to save up some water from the pantry. I have to prepare for the worst. It would probably take them the whole day to fix the problem and I do have an 8 o'clock class tomorrow morning. Better to be safe than smelly!

A Day At The Fish Spa

Dear readers, No doubt, you would have heard tons of fascinating things about the new craze in town: the fish spa. What you are going to find out in the next few minutes would probably change your perspective of this new and trendy relaxation method. Well, it sure freaked me out. It was a typical Sunday evening, when one of my cousins suggested that we try something different for a change rather than just bumming around and watching You Tube like a bunch of Internet junkies. She heard from her friend's cousin's friend's boyfriend's sister that there is a newly opened fish spa near our apartment. She even got a coupon for a 15 minute free session, which fitted very well into our budget. So, we decided to give it a try. The location of the shop was pretty shady but the proprietor (Miss R) seemed friendly enough. She was actually inspired to start the fish spa after watching some loc als in the jungles of the Amazon perform their yearly ritual to appease the pagan river g...

Artsy Wartsy

Dear readers, I must beg your pardon. This might be a sight of me that you have never seen. I was taken by a whim. Yes, I was overwhelmed by a sudden urge to draw that I offered to help my cousin design a birthday card for her friend. FOR FREE!! I must have been struck with temporary insanity. Front Inside Ah boy, I sure miss drawing! But I need a project ... hmmm ...

Hello Goodbye

I woke up at around 2 p.m. on Monday, feeling rather awful, having slept through my Multimedia Marketing class. It was a rejuvenating slumber though. Anyway, at around 6 in the evening, there was a knock on my room door. I was terrified! Can it be ... the long awaited hostel spot check? Maybe it is the warden, coming to warn me about the complaints she got of somebody singing "We are the champions" late into the night? How did they know it was me? I was about to open the door when I heard the key being inserted from the other side. The door opened to reveal .... MY NEW ROOMATE!!! I was shocked and she was stunned. After a moment of awkward silence, we regained our composure and introduced each other. I explained that it would be impossible for us to take in a third roomate because, as it is with just the 2 of us, the room is already congested. A third would be a catastrophe! A little bit dramatic perhaps but you would understand if you see my room. After listening to her s...
