since uncle and auntie left, i have been at home mostly alone, doing my stuff, whenever i like... i enjoy these periods of freedom sometimes... cos i get to do stuff i want to do whenever i want to... anyway, my thesis is slowly coming along, hopefully... and knowing that the conference is like less than a month away, i really have to start working on the poster... today went to the DFO outlet, hoping to get a blazer to wear at the conference... and finally after trying on so many, i finally found one selling at a discounted price of $40, and when i got home, i peeled off the tag and guess what, the original price of the blazer was $160!!! i was so pleased with myself... and it was not easy looking for one which was comfortable and at the same time, looked flattering...
since the start of the olympics... the 3 of us have been following the games every day, especially the swimming and the gymnastics... i have to say, this was the first time i am even watching the games... i don't think i have even bothered following the games all these years... and suddenly, we started watching and now it's kind of like the daily routine for us every night... and i am actually getting to know some of the "famous" names in swimming... like Michael Phelps... before this, if you say Michael Phelps... all you will get from me is a blank look... haha... who??
and i actually think having the olympics in china was a good thing... cos up till now, alot of people still are unaware of chinese culture, even not having a good perception of the chinese, but now, bcos of the olympics, i think the world will have a different view of the chinese now...
although i was quite upset that the chinese girl was not even the girl singing during the opening ceremony and some of the fireworks were fake... felt cheated man...
