Do you hear the bells ringing?

If you're reading this Stan, yes checking the time does remind me of you. Hi! *waves.

Christmas break has started! Not officially, seeing as we're having the last class tomorrow morning. I'm off to Putney after that. Can't wait!

I count my lucky stars at times like these. So grateful to have relatives around wherever I am. Even in England, I have a place to call home; a place to look forward to whenever I have my holidays. It feels exactly like going home from KL! Well not exactly but good enough for me to miss the place and the people.

Anyway I've been spending SO MUCH time indoors due to my rapid aging (wtf).

I feel like a sloth after every single time I party! I take so much time to recover and get soooooo lazy. I've been telling everyone that I'm simply too old to party (see, I'm turning 21 in 9 days omg?!) because I can't seem to handle it as good as I could three months ago. I could drink everyday and club thrice a week back in Penang. I think the sudden stop when I came to Sheffield has somehow caused my cells to degenerate at a faster rate.

Plus I've been watching The Big Bang Theory back to back. It's crazy. I think I finished 5 seasons in a week. But it's so addictive and funny! In fact the only reason I'm blogging now is because my current episode isn't loading. Every link seems to be broken :(

On a side note, I still can't get used to the partying culture here. The way we do it back home is so much more fun. I like driving/being driven to clubs more than walking/taking the bus/cabbing. I like getting drunk and having drinks throughout clubbing (that includes constant refills of the glass), rather than pre-drink and only have two drinks in the club. I like walking into a club straight, rather than having to buy tickets to get in! I like having a table rather than going straight to the dancefloor. I like the slow way of getting phone numbers and letting the relationship develop rather than full on making out & attempting to sleep together.

And I like chilling out at KTV's with tonnes of international songs rather than burly ol' pubs that play quizzes I can't understand because it's so localized.

But I guess I'll learn to embrace it a lil bit more.

...which is kinda difficult because I bond though humour; and Malaysians & the British have veryyyyy different sense of humour. Ah well. I'll learn.
