okie i am finally back after so long. been so tired nowadays given that i finally started my 5 day work week and its only 2 to 3 hours a day but because of that i have to get bus concession that cost 370SEK = ard 70SGD. should have gotten a bike if i don't get freak out that much on the road which i still do due to the unfamilarity with the left hand drive.
lots of past events going on. 1st was xiuhui's mini birthday celebration at tracy's and gh's place. potluck dinner! made bak ku teh soup which turned out not too bad i guess haha. just that i have to cook with 3 pots since tracy they all don't have a big pot! o_O. got other food too! xiu made fried rice, geez made thai mutton curry (with a lot of things inside like beansprout longbeans etc) and tracy n gh made shephard's pie and the banana cake! we had banana split and pepsi float for desert! complete meal =)
then went to watch a live ice hockey match! its super duper cool and i cant even sometimes see where's the puck was going. totally exciting! though we do not know the rules very well but its good to be soaked in the atmosphere of the home crowd of the malmo team despite some of them are really scary. super exciting! superb live match. oh yeah the name five for fighting actually comes from ice hockey when you get send out 5 minutes for fighting (but i only seen 2 mins time out throughout). violent game. often crashings into the walls by the players to fight for the puck. totally cool.
and i just came back from kiruna (in northern sweden) seeing the northern lights! the weather went down to -20 degrees and its damn freaking cold. cum its snowing! it really look like those snowy postcard pictures you see. i sank into snow and it was ankle deep! and i slip and fell as well =( we managed to see the northern lights with bands and moving! but the color we saw was white and not the expected band of colors. possibly due to the reason that this year is not the season to see it. heard the next best time is 5 years later! despite that its worth our driving up from kiruna for an hour and my 23 hours train ride per way! did horse riding and rose snow mobile for the first time too! visited the well known ice hotel which is really nice and the superb ice bar which serves drinks in ice cubes.
after spending 4 days with people travelling, pretty hard to get back to my lonely life in my single room. needs to stay more positive. work's piling up and i don't know when's my next trip since my timetable is unconfirmed and everyone seemed to be going everywhere. i shall see what i can do after i attend my first chem lesson. need to start ponning lesson! meanwhile take care guys! =)
