I need to figure out what's going on with my university stuff. I've already accepted Warwick's offer, but there's been no word from MOE about getting deferred entry. I just received the Welcome Pack from Warwick, so I'm starting to wonder if I should be more proactive in the whole matter. Should fire off another e-mail to Ms Kho over the weekend. Cell was great fun, as always. Today, we had supper again at that stretch of eateries opposite Beauty World. I have no idea how to spell the name of the road. It's some really Chinese name, like with the surname and everything. Anyway, the point is that the chicken rice chilli was very hot! Sorry if that doesn't excite you. Sent Liling off in the morning, and happened to bump into Chris Ho, who's just had his wisdom teeth removed. He was being sent out by a whole bunch of people whom I technically know, but whom I haven't spoken to on a regular basis since we left NYPS. Now that was kind of a weird reunion. Then I went to Kinokuniya, since it seemed rather stupid to travel all the way to Changi Airport and then go straight back home after half an hour. Picked up Nabokov's Despair, and The Black Book and My Name Is Red by Orhan Pamuk, who's this Turkish writer whom I've been meaning to check out ever since I saw a publisher's blurb for another novel of his, The New Life, inside a Nabokov volume I have. Was delighted to discover that Kinokuniya had all but one of his books, at least those that've been translated into English. Unfortunately, I'm now very broke until my next paycheck comes along! Heck, I guess it was worth it.
