The past week has been eventful in the way everyday life is: head-banging fun for me, mind-numbing boredom for the rest of humanity.
It's funny how some things never change. The world, for instance. It never changes; it just stays the same, only more so. But that's a story for another day.
In this instance, what doesn't change is Life at College, or more specifically, Life at The Little Outpost In The Jungle between two Pinnacles of Civilization (Sg & Kl) that is Sunway College JB.
Yes, nothing ever happens around here. We don't have a futsal court. Some people did turn up for our expos, though I'm not sure they really count since you could count the number of people who came with one hand. There is that Masquerade ball what came up in three weeks time 20 days ago. Odds on at least two-thirds will crumple, trod on, break or otherwise forget to bring their masks tomorrow night. And I don't have a date. Boohoo~
It's not all fun and games though. Everyday is a struggle to make ends meet, playing silly buggers in class, holding races to the mamak stall at lunchtime, skipping M'sian Studies for DotA and fooling around with the door sensors on the only working lift on campus. Mucho stressful indeed. I only hope all this effort won't go to waste during exams.
But Life at College has pretty much settled down here and had kids. What with all the rumors of couples, gangbanging on birthdays and table graffiti; it's like high school all over again. Only with cars, bad fashion sense and much, much cleaner toilets.
Speaking of cars; last wednesday, instead of his Vios, Adrian brought his venerable Wira.
The sms Prasad sent to him after test driving it says it all:

*A bit of clarification for those born without sarcasm detectors: Steering was quite heavy, turns for only 1 full revolution and a half, and gets stuck at all the wrong times. Perfume in question was exhaust fumes from the back. Aforementioned radio was missing - like a mad cybertronian dog had bitten a huge chunk out of the dashboard and ran away sniggering.
And for those you who like the pictures on this space, thank you. Sorry for none today, but vacations are like weddings - you get them every few years, once a year if you're lucky, and even when you do they're so full of a maudlin commotion that when all's said and done mostly everyone is happy, and happy mostly because it's all over and done with.
Wedding nights, on the other hand -
But that's another story.
Cheerio~
