This is so frustrating. What's the worst thing that can go wrong when you're happily typing up a new blog (4 chunky paragraphs to be exact, with painstakingly thought-out pseudo humour) on a recent trip to London? The Web server connection dies out on you when you hit the "Save as Draft" button. @*#(&$(*#&amp;amp;#(^&*)(!@#^!!!!!!!!!!

Anyways, I 've decided to abandon the idea of re-writing the entire chronicle of my chill-to-the-bones, pathetically, tragically lonesome and expensive (GBP3.162:SGD1) 2-weeks and instead focus on something more mundane. Oh, writer's block. To be continued..

I have been curious about this blogging activity for awhile but never really had the inclination to start one till now. Reason being I've been bored to tears for a long while. If I can spare the time to rant about this in the blog you'd probably be clicking on the "X" on the extreme right of this window at this very moment... which I'm actually capable of doing if you've met my friends and asked them about my current state of mind!

Oh, you're still around? Amazing. I'm amazed myself at deciding to start an account to "blog" as the youngsters these days will say.

Then it dawned on me that my life is so boring right now that I have not much to say today! Except that it's the "3-8 Ladies Day". Of course, it is of no obvious significance, except that it reminds me that I'm not getting any younger as the days pass. People say you attain a certain level of maturity as you grow older. I'm wondering if I've been stuck at the transition stage eversince I started working. Anyways, pardon me if this blog is too unbearable to read, but it's the first one, so let's hope things will get more interesting as the year progresses!

I've Been..

Satisfying the wanderlust fascination.
Slacking.
Sleeping.
Shopping (wayyyyyyyyyyy too much).
Reading NW, Famous and 8 Days voraciously.
Chillin' with a pint of good beer or latte.
Indulging in purposeful conversation.
Otherwise, I'm happy for you to leave me alone.
