good friday
had a field trip this morning for my 'history of malay world' module. went on a tour of of the kampong glam area, the old royal istana, and the streets around there. pretty insightful and interesting, gotta know alot more stuff about the malay society which i didnt know before. some myths were dispelled, some upheld. felt that its kinda tragic that the descendants of the royal family simply disappeared into oblivion. what a waste considering that the family had such a rich history in singapore's past. dodo la.
modules like this are fun. something different, and the contents are indeed interesting. plus point is the fact that dr. barnard is taking the class. that man is never short on jokes, wit and humour. makes being educated enjoyable. will probably try to take more of his modules in future. oh, a piece of trivia. he IS a muslim. straight revelation from his own mouth. curiosity appeased for many of us. haha. no wonder he knew so much.
had a quick quick lunch at hajjah maimunah's, with faisal afro, yan, siti mariam, and wan. gourged on long awaited craving, the "siput sedut" (ocean snails). you'd hafta literally and practically suck them pieces out of the shells. my all-time favourite dish man. shiok. yucky it may seem to some, but u gotta try it to believe people. if you havnt that is.
listening to the friday sermon after lunch is never a good plan. dozed off many a times accidentally. aaah well. at least im there. for a start. had a pretty good chilling out session with the same group again after that at coffee bean in bugis junction. traded gossips and shared stories. in the time we were there, i gotta know more about the social stuffs and going-ons in nus than i did in the past 3 semesters. passive as i was, it was enjoyable. *grin*
bummed around with yan before ending the day with an unplanned spontaneous supper with azira, shram & aini, at west coast hawker center. again another round of sinful talk. haha.
feeling much better now. which is good. havent exactly been in good spirits past few days. hope it stays this way. que sera sera.
hmm now now, where is the time to do my work again? infinite yikes.
