back, after what seems like 2 days and not 2 weeks. amazing trip. though it took alot from me, a disgusting amount on shopping and food for 2weeks, and im rather drained. even after sleeping from 9am to 8pm today. there wasnt much i missed when i was there, apart from dink and my mum, MARSHMALLOW, and friends who didnt go on the trip. nadia im so sorry i missed your bday, shall make it up to you soon :D
hmun was well, a waste of time. hence we kept ponning and escaping to prudential, the mall which was walking distance from our hotel. shopping in america is amazing. walking in the snow(the snow and not the sludge or the ice) is the most wonderful feeling ever. making snow angels and snowball fights with harvard students were completely unforgettable. harvard is beautiful, and completely not within my reach. the dining hall was breathtaking, i swear. dc was very historical, felt very american with the pentagon visit and all. newyork was amazing. i want to live there, work in the newyork times building while my sister works in wall street and we can live in one of those amazing apartments on 5th avenue, opposite central park. absolutely amazing.
wonderful trip, amazing experience. i met so many new people and got close to people who were just aquintances. like huanna (who mavis the maid is trying to steal from me but i shall not allow it! heh). and stef and i collectively got alot closer to shark (shang+mark), esp shang who we didnt really know v well before this. all thanks to that day on the bus and them being our favouritest, cutest couple ever. and of course, my lovely roomates mavis and weiqi i love you two. and the 1e people, particularly abel and eddy who i grew substantially closer to on this trip. and charles, chere, other humans people. it was such a priceless trip in terms of bonds forged, and amazingly i hardly got annoyed with people. i realised i have alot of control over what i choose to let affect me or not affect me, kinda. so i chose to focus less on things that annoyed me.
my thoughts arent exactly very coherent. there's a sort of emptiness being at home now, since everyone's asleep. and there's no hotel room full of talking people to visit, or creep into mark's room and steal the beloved Poofy, or pop by yam/eddy/charles' room and talk, eat instant noodles.. yeah. im too tired to say more. but i think this trip changed alot. made me think alot too, the long bus rides with my ipod and looking out of the window. i realised that i really want to make america my home, despite everything i dislike about it. and well there's so much more to say, but for now. byebye :]
and omg,i have to be in sch at 10am tmr. wow.
