New house

I'm thinking that no one really checks this space anymore, so I've decided to just post a wee bit about my house, and then maybe release more information when more interest is expressed.
Yes, I crave attention.


Straight to the point, thats the grand entrance to the grounds of the estate wherein my house lays. St Davids Square. I would give out exact addressess, but I fear incurring a flood of mail from my e'er so devoted friends.



And that's the main transportation to my place. Dockland's Light Railway (DLR), which is essentially a monorail through the most beautiful, unpolluted parts of London. I've got a view of the River Thames from the balcony, and Greenwich Village lies o'er the banks. Its an hour commute to campus, but its a damn sight worth it. Corny references to Island Gardens aside, this place is seriously like home with air-con in the streets.

If I did manage to shamelessly accrue any responses by my blatant whining, I'll post more soon with pictures of the house itself, along with the facilities *winkswimmingpoolwink*.

Till then, toodledoo!

I'm not obsessive. Just obsessed.

Long time

Its been a strange, but fruitful year. Still completely unsure if I'm doing what I really want to be doing, but its damned comfortable for sure. I'll probably elaborate more at a later date, or maybe not at all. Its kinda difficult to write again after so long. Heh.

The past week has been turbulent, what with the uncertainty about accommodation and my trips home and all. But thank God, just on Sunday things started falling into place. I've got a house to stay in now, and I'm looking forward to it greatly! I'm going to be staying with Singaporeans! Surprise surprise, me reverting to comfort zone. But though the place is far (50 mins tube away), I've completely fallen in love with the place. River view, swimming pool, gym and pool table, the works! Haha...just awesome.

Also, just Monday I managed to find a reasonably priced ticket home! So its back home this Christmas for carolling and weddings. Downside is, I'll be taking this rather new, unblooded airline called Etihad. Total travel time from Heathrow to Changi is close to 24 hours, with a mad 10 hour overnight stopover in Abu Dhabi. Thank God for the company he provides though. I'll be going back with one of my housemates, so all will be good (I hope).

Update with pictures incoming...in the next month or so maybe.
