it hasn't hit me yet that i'm in uni

you remember talking about it as a child, "Mummy, when I grow up I want to go to University!"
Mummy nods and smiles. i went through numerous phases of occupational wants. in kindergarden i wanted to be a lawyer. my relatives thought i talked too much for a kindergardener. then as i progressed onto primary school, i realised i wanted to save the world so i told everyone i wanted to be a doctor. i had these lofty plans to set up a 24hr clinic with my brother and how we would lead a very tiring but fulfilling life. i probably wanted to be a teacher at sporadic points in my life as well but it was never something that stuck.

now turning 19 in a couple of months, sitting in a hostel room in almost-m'sia, it feels all too surreal. i had this feeling the 1st half of the JC1 year in AC as well (reality pretty much only sunk in when i took the term exams). my mother attributes this to the 'head-in-clouds' way i live life, that i fantasise and imagine too much. mum likes to exaggerates but there is certain truth in that.

who knows, in the blink of an eye, we'll all be 60 and i won't even feel it! ^-^

i reiterate (glo if you're reading this, i quote this in memory of the hilarious conversation we had with regards to surrealism and chicken rice), This Is So Surreal.

for now :)
