The weather was scorching hot, accompanied by the strong winds bellowing through the city. Even the animals had to take shelter from the heat, and dozes of somewhere hidden where WE can't find them. A visit to the zoo like that doesn't seem worth it at all. Am pretty sure that my body was dehydrated and I probably had a mild heatstroke that had caused me to have a slight headache after several hours being roasted by the sun. Had not expected the weather to be that extreme.
And because I thought that the weather would be perfect to dry my clothes properly, i decided to do my laudry, thinking that it would be the perfect weather for my clothes to dry. Little did I know, the weather turned, and it was already raining by the night. I lived about an hour away from the city, it was pretty much impossible for me to pick my clothes up before it rained. :(
Living alone has definitely given me so much more to think of and to learn.
Just today, my sis and her husband got me a cook book, consisting of only 4 ingredients for each and every recipes in the cook book. They even bought me some baking equipments for me to practise my baking skills. A small part in me felt like it was some sort of insult, but to think again, I actually do need the cook book. Considering that I am livinng on myself, at least I now have an idea on what to cook to feed myself everyday. Not to forget about washing my own clothes, I guess I have learned to be more alert on the weather forecast on whether it would rain or not, and if the weather would be hot enough to dry my clothes within a day. What more? I NEED TO CLEAN MY ROOM AND MY OWN TOILET. Something I never do back at home. What am I talking, I NEVER DO ANYTHING AT HOME! All I did then was just SLEEP, EAT, AND DO MY OWN STUFFS.
Now to think of it, I actually had the whole time in the world for me to do EVERYTHING I could have wanted, but then, I would still complain I had not enough time at all. Right now, I doubt those excuses as, 'not enough time' would be valid in anyway. For if I don't do any of those, my room/my house wouldn't feel livable anymore, and thus, enhance my level of homesickness. In a way, it is good though, it makes me appreciate things much more than I used to. WAYYY MUCH MUCH MORE.

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHA! :D
Literally I am on my own for everything I do now.
I kinda like how it is, in a way. It may sound a little too overwhelming sometimes, but it still feels like a challege for me. And when i manage to accomplish that one challege, I'd be estatic, and would want to search for more of those moments. :D
Uni life officially starts tomorrow, 27th of Feb 2012.
