Went to school in the early morning, studied at the library cafe and tried to do my finance tutorial, but it was beyond my mortal understanding... Charlene overslept and didn't meet me as we arranged, so I couldn't ask her how to do the tute. Gave up around 11 plus, I was getting hungry and called Cindy to see where she was. Met up with her and she drove us to Broadway for lunch, we went to this place called Mix as I got to know the owner through my friend the other day and he invited me to go over and try his stuff. I really hate to say it but the food was not really good, my stomach felt queasy for the whole day after that. After that we went to Cindy's new house, she just signed the lease agreement today and was moving in. Helped her to get her luggage and clothes and stuff into her new house. After that I went for my 2 lectures in the afternoon, and decided to pass on the lab exercise today, needed to go home and rest.

On the way home, the bus that I was on broke down, it was stopping in the middle of the road and the driver just couldn't get it started again. There was an old lady sitting behind the driver who kept shaking her head and making those "tsk tsk" sounds, it was comical for a moment but my thoughts soon turned to, "Oh crap, I need to crap. Hopefully the bus get fixed soon or they send the next bus over fast..." Thankfully the driver managed to fix the problem, they actually have like walkie talkies on the buses here for communication between the drivers and the main stations, and they provide technical support on such occasions.

Wendi (my sis's boyfriend) had a friend come over tonight. Mike is his colleague and is actually British, and I had a chat with him on the difference between Western and Asian cultures. He was a very interesting person to talk to and I enjoyed the chat very much. Showed him a few magic tricks before he left and he showed me his juggling skills too (much to my surprise). I was surprised too when he revealed that he used to busk as a juggler. Interesting person. And his juggling skills are pretty good too, though a little rusty.

It was kinda touching when he told us that Aya, is having a baby and it's gonna be a gal, and how that makes him feel special. I couldn't help but think that his daughter is gonna be a real lucky gal, having such a loving father. Can't help but feel my parent's love for me too. Have to really work hard.
