the feeling of being broke...

... never goes away... sigh...

i just passed up an opportunity of going to the mystery house in san jose cos i think i shld wait til i have more cash... heh... pathetic it is...

took a walk down the wharf.. it's a pretty nice place.. people fishing... HUGE seagulls... they sell fresh fish there too! but as usual, it's expensive... i'm looking forward to starting work tmr... then i get free meals.

got 5 blisters on my feet... owwies... cos i'm not used to walkin so much in shoes! actually i'm not used to walking at all... haha...
from now on unless i'm working... i'm wearing slippers.. hehe

yesterday, me and samantha walked 1 hr down to the supermarket, and 1 hr up again! thant's the kind of distance we walk everyday..

oh wellz... we have become super aunty... going to supermarket, comparing prices, and looking out for sale items! and also collecting plastic bags so that we can separate our food... wahahahaha... the aunty syndrome is overwhelming... ! i even have a safeway(supermarket) card, which gives discounts on food items...

have gotten closer to samantha... our long walks together have done us good... so we've talked a bit. and help each other out more... i think at the beginning, my 2 apartment mates were so conscious of what's mine, and what's yours... it was quite weird... but now at least we share some stuff, and plan on buying some stuff together. yeahz... life is getting better.

i hear that our work and travel coordinator here is not very happy with the way things are, cos she thought that 4 of the 11 of us here would be going back early, but now it's like only 4 of the 11 are staying for the full 4 mths! yeahz... prob some communication problem with the singapore person... blah..

neway it doesnt really affect me... hee... i'll just do my job... =)
