domesticatedness?

I went grocery shopping today, came home and cooked sliced beef wanton noodles accompanied with wanton soup. Then I took abt 3 hours scrubbing the kitchen cos I had the urge to clean and disinfect. The kitchen is now bright and white! And I have a backache now :-( I really need to start exercising regularly again. That is my boring day.

I'm in bed wit a backache now and craving for chocs. I had a bar of snickers that I ate half and forgot to keep it in the fridge. When I wanted to eat it just now, it had ants!!! I know it's sad. It was the only chocolate available in the house and I was desperate and still am desperate. I threw it away of course. That is all that happened in my boring day. After the exams, I feel clueless... it's my term break anyway. Will be starting my new term next week! Human anatomy and physiology, cell and molecular biology and pharmaceutical chemistry modules this coming term.

I'm not even sure if domesticatedness is a word...

Summertime... and the loving is easy?!!

How long ago has it been since I blogged? Pretty long. Nothing much has happened during that long study period. Warm, humid, city Singapore air is not polluted but it is bad enough for me. Oh how I miss the crisp cool air of spring... or even that of autumn's. :-( Being in the tropics isn't that all fun and sunny. Trust me, the sun and the humidity is intolerable. Excuse me for being prissy. Ahaha...

I don't know how thick is the ozone layer above this region but one thing evident is the pigmentation that I'm getting on my shoulders, arms and legs. Not to mention the face... I don't get 'cute pigmentation' in the form of freckles. I'm not that fair as in caucasian-fair and not as 'yellow' as the chinese so I'm more reddish (though pinkish would make me sound adorable). Anyway, these little pigmentations will grow big and brown as I get older but to slab on the sunscreen on my body in this humid weather, I'll be greasy by the time I step out of the house, oil-free or not!

I wonder how the weather will affect my future. Will I remain in this tropical region or will I migrate somewhere nice? Europe is a nice place but I can't figure out where exactly yet. I prefer Italy to France though. I doubt I'd stay in Moscow although I still dream of Russia. It's way too tough there. Then again, maybe NZ or Australia... except that these countries have been flocked by asians already. Oh well, I'm still a healthy 22 going on 23 and have yet to earn a proper paycheck. We'll see about that later. Just need to explore more excuses to travel.

P/S: When I say I get pigmentations, they're like teeny-weeny reddish-brown dots on my arms and shoulder, and the face. But it's not as though I'm covered by red ants or something. I'm not that blotchy yet! Ahaha... Vanity.
