I woke up late again!crap, whats new.. but I got the school bus..i think my motherly instincts are showing more and more.. when I was in lecture and we were talking abt how women are fooled by marriages cos they are shaped by cultural norms to take care of the family etc.. and its weird.. I thought I was career minded but I went about asking myself, “what’s wrong with that?” sigh.. and this whole idea of how marriages are romanticized etc and I think I’d still want that whole fairytale looking marriage.. haha.. weird.. I’m weird.. that’s what they call peculiar.anyway.. had a sandwich for lunch.. for the first time.. saved a lot.. ate in lecture which turned out to be a group presentation with half the lecture group missing.. then I got down to the language lab to tape my Cantonese self introduction and I sounded so funny! My friend said my tone is very flat.. “ngoh giu Liz, ngoh hai san-ga-po lai” haha.. well, I rushed to tuition after that.. it was quite fun.. the kid is getting attached to me and I like him.. he’s so witty..and I got my first pay checque of 180hkd! For one lesson.. yeah.. and his mum bought me two egg tarts which I really enjoyed!eating too many eggs recently..sigh.. got to sai wan to get meat and meet anjali to pass her my cheongsam and yeah passed it to her but I couldn’t get the meat cos none of them at the market could speak English! sigh.. failed.. but bought other stuff like mushrooms, fishcake, crabmeat.. all to stock up for the next week.. got back and yes! I cooked chicken curry! Was really worried about the proportions of curry powder and water and all.. sigh.. but yeah it turned out great! Awesome! and we had those pre packed prates that we fried and ate.. so nice..happy with myself.. see hoe domesticated I’ve become? Its horrible man. See what Hong kong has turned me into?! Haha.. well, called nat tonight to say goodbye cos he’s going away to Taiwan for a month.. and he called me back and was on the line with him for an hour till now…He sounded so sad that I feel sad for him. sigh..I think he’s going to get the syndrome youde and i have/had and the feeling of being away for long..i guess everyone has that experience sometime or another eh? Gonna retire now!
