World of My Own

First two weeks of school have been rather relaxing, quite surprising given how I expected a torrid semester filled with activities and assignments. I'm still prepared for the worse, though. As soon as I got back my new apartment, the bed bugs wasted no time in greeting me with a couple of bites. Hence I've been a little occupied with sending these resilient creatures to the afterworld. Other than that, the new place is really nice, although I must admit my room feels kinda small.

It was nice meeting some familiar old faces around school suring the first week, as well as making a whole lot of new acquaintances and friends among the freshies. My job however has been a drawback - I only get to work 8 hours a week given the new system, which must have come up when my supervisors popped a couple of moron-pills. Now there's a serious dent to my plans come next year. What is even more ironic is that I have been on quite an online-shopping spree since I got back.

I finally decided on my laptop - which I'm hoping would last me for quite some time - the Lenovo T400. The positive reviews online certainly aided my decision, plus I had quite a discount thanks to a friend (owe ya' one). I also got Sanyo Eneloop batteries for my camera, some of the best rechargeables there are in the market. Again, I went for quality and resilience. There are also another couple of accesories I'm planning on purchasing - A Zeroshock III cover for my T400 as well as 2GB of DDR2 RAM for my desktop.

Pictures from the Architectural Boat Cruise and ISO Fresher's Camp are due, and I'll probably have them up next week from my new laptop - I certainly can't wait for it to arrive!
