i have been SICK. which raises the question about what angmohs eat as sick food. there is a severe lack of edible things for sick people here. the only thing ive had in the last 5 days that didnt make me convulse is porridge. with varying vegetable ingredients, most notably sweet potato, the consumption of which makes me feel like a WW2 veteran. i HATE being sick-- the doctor actually prescribed me nothing and told me to rest and get better by myself--- i honestly dont feel like thats happening at all.

nigel has been really good, taking care of me and basically waiting on me hand and foot, though he tends to waltz around with chocolate biscuits and dried fruit and AGHHHH WHY CAN I NOT EAT

but anyway, school starts again next monday, which is going to be chiong sua all over again. uni life is pretty much summed up in those words if you're determined on doing well. its all personal effort basically, you can cut as many classes as you like but in the end you are the one to face the music. my attitude has been to be kiasu, which im not sure is the most viable option, but nevermind. school does tire me out, but its rewarding in its own right. may i get well before getting back into the fray!
