i know i haven't blogged in awhile. it's not that i have forgotten about this blog or anything. in fact, i struggle to on my decision whether to blog each day. it's just that sometimes i think it's reached a point that rather than tell the readers online what's going on with who.. i rather be selective and tell the individual friends what i need to say. nevertheless, markie bro suggested that blogging will in a way be able to effectively express my compressed emotions on a crappy day (which seems like everyday) and so i'm back. recharged to continue blogging.

i guess during this "blogging break" or whatever you wanna call it, i took a break in singapore and came back down under once again. good trip, loadsa things happening - in summary: plucking out my wisdoms, losing my wisdom, meeting up with people, seeing the new NUM hotties and most importantly, spending heapsa time with family. oh, there's one significant thing i would want to highlight here on my blog. i reckon that looking at other people's family situations forced me to reassess my relationship (or non-existent one) with my brother.

alot of people will know my brother and i have alot of differences/issues. we're not the usual bickering siblings you see. we, simply, just stay out of each other's way. we don't talk face to face and neither are we seen together outside. just the rare sms/msn msg which seems to revolve arnd the same thing "where is mum/dad?" when i went back in july, i resolved to make an effort on my part to see how i could start establishing a relationship with my older brother. well, as we all know, it takes two hands to clap, and i was really apprehensive if my brother would be willing to try. but i have to say, he really amazed me more than i give him credit for. i reckon in this 4 week break, we spoke to each other more than we had spoken in the past 4 years or so! so really thank GOD for that. i am smiling with happiness as i typed this.

yeahs, the break in singapore, consisted of the usual things like whacking at the gym and then pigging out (now, that cancels out one another), hanging with the boys and my girlies. it was good.

back in perth, the weather is cold and dreary. i have so many changes to make this semester. i'll be finally moving out soon.. when my dad comes and helps me find a place. in addition, last semester's results were so disappointing. i took it terribly. i'm really tired but i really don't wish to disappoint myself this semester. let's just see how it goes.

will blog tmr about the current happenings. for now, i miss all of you guys heaps. *muacks*
