Escape Artist

Raisin disappeared. Again! It's a normal occurance & I usually spot him again quite quickly if I go poking around the dark, dusty corners of my room.



But today, I thought I lost him for good. He vanished for far too long this time. As usual, I was whining to my best friend and she being very patient, tried to reassure & pacify me.



Then the darnest thing happened. As soon as I typed out, "I won't give up hope." in my chat room - I saw Raisin scurrying back to my feet! Talk about Law of Attraction!



Don't believe me? Believe it. He's happily munching away in his cage now. Fat pig!



*breathes a loud sigh of relieve*



How do you scream, "DON'T EVER DO THAT AGAIN!!!!!!!!" in hamster language?






He looks pretty good when he combs his hair doesn't he?

Contentment

Finally. I'm in uni. It feels like it took me forever to get here.



After a series of highs, bumps & falls, this is the cherry on the cupcake for me. It's nothing short of a miracle.



I love my room - it overlooks the sports complex so I get free entertainment every evening. A huge bunch of shirtless guys running around, yelling & grunting. Oof, you can smell the testosterone from up here.



I love my lectures - I'm reading what I've always been curious about.



I love my new found friends - They're good looking & they're crazy. Suits me just fine. :D The guys here actually SHOP. They walked into a store even before we girls stepped in. I'm just in awe.

I love the campus - I could get used to the greens & the lake. It's like a vacation resort out here! Oh! The ducks! That was a crucial part of my uni fantasies and we've got 7 Asian short neck swans waddling around the lake so my dreams came true.





Up to this point, you'd probably realise that this post is really really weird. No ranting, whining, nagging, sobbing, moaning, kicking or screaming.

Ah. But I do have ONE problem. One friend after hearing my enthusiasm about uni over & over again dryly replied, "I think your standards are too low."

*toot* !@#$%^&*



Well of course there are the downside of things. It's not perfect. But after finally finding a place to call uni. A decent place at that. Where the lecturers are not too bad to look at either. Who am I to complain? :P



Psst...It gets even better.



I lost weight. *big sloppy grin* All that walking to the very last block, to the very top floor, to the place where I now call "My Room" and sucky cafeteria food was the secret to my success. Give it a try. Visible results guaranteed in 2 weeks only.
