Couldn't help but smirk as "Raindrops" came up on my iPod as i was walking in the rain to do my Sainsbury's grocery run.

The recent weekend had a strange, surreal almost idyll feel to it - well most probably its because its the first proper weekend we've had since IC's mNite. ORRrr it could be all the coffee, sugar and sleep depravation - my sleep cycles are spinning into utter...umm....utter fucked-up-ness( excuse my french) , particularly this weekend - explanation to come in the summary.....but neither really explained my recently rediscovered affinity for cheesy-ass malay songs...jiwaaaang!!!

After leaving T&G particularly satisfied with a new ( relatively different from normal) haircut - of course NATURALLY it had to be raining - and getting slightly varied responses from the other linsteadians , generally had a quiet boring friday night. Normal after dinner foosball session followed by a "power nap" . Later joined Lu, Alex and Lim who were watching a weirdass but cool anime - spirited away - and then decide to go bug charlotte for some "gossip" [cough]. She held us at the door for quiiite a while until one of us made an excuse to come in - most of us were there from like....1-ish till around 3 but none of us were very good interrogators. Damn. Must remember to bring some sodium pentathol next time.

Burnt the entire Saturday afternoon at Oriental City with Alex, Jingye, Lu, Val and Jac. Ate loooooads for lunch at the food court, checked out the shops, frittered some time at the arcade there ( still can play DDR...yaay) , loaded up on foodstuff we can't find in chinatown and had satay and teh tarik at the distinctly Malaysian stall outside in the parking lot. Hahaha the satay was kinda pricey but kinda authentic too - except it doesn't really feel the same when its windy and around 5degrees outside. Still wondering why we hadn't ordered it to be sent to the INDOOR food court.......

Some of the guys wanted to stop at chinatown on the way back , since some things were still cheaper there, and we had to change tube lines at leicester anyway and we had day travelcards - aaAAand we could bother the sweet couple-to-be [COUGH COUGH] who would be having a *roMaNtiC* dinner there. But in the end we decided to just go straight back home 'cos half of us kInDA decided to leave them alone and the other half just can't really be bothered. After a quick dinner, lionel, charl , lu and alex crashed my room and watched some anime, and of all things Finding Nemo. After that and some cock-talking we ended up on a deeevious photoshopping session...hee hee HEE...( sorry Lu..and oh yeah Val ). More insiduous attemps to extract "**gossip**" from charl [cough cough] failed....must really remember sodium pentathol next time. Went to sleep around 5-ish again.

AAAnnd we come to Sunday afternoon ( 4 o'clock Sainsburys run in the rain). Joined most of the other guys on B landing after their dinner, and unleashed the evil of the earlier photoshop session to much laughter in charl's room. After most of 'em cleared off its just me, alex, lionel and charl[cough COUGH] talking more rubbish...and playing with balloons ( don't ask ). Gave up on any interrogation attempts and just relegated ourselves to puerile teasing and innuendoes again....hee hee hee.

Wellll back to work again....damn weekly assignments..
oh yeah really hoping that the opposition , PAS in particular will lose miserable-fucking-ly in the m'sian by elections next week
